there are times when i think that, despite the fact that my work is so far off from my career path of choice, i couldnt have been at a more appropriate place. an accounting major might find some solace in a design firm(managing their finances) but an industrial design major sticks out like a sore thumb surrounded by corporate bean counters. take ( Read more... )

much to my delight, school doesnt start until september 4, so that gives me around a month more of nothingness. as much as i dislike being idle, i like this period of not doing anything THAT important. after all, im only idle school-wise, but the rest of my life is still moving forward. besides, this is really the only summer where i havent taken ( Read more... )

i havent updated in this place for a while, and with good reason. ive been very busy with life lately. i feel like im living my life as it would be when i finally have a family: the 9-5, coming home doing some errands, eating with a family member here and meeting with a friend there, and working out before heading off to bed. my job, though hardly ( Read more... )

i just turned in my 300 point final project for my online art history class...im so relieved. its not finished yet-i have to creat a "dialogue" with two other people about their projects, but im on the home stretch. besides the dialogue, i have only two more quizzes and two extra credit exercises which i very much intend to submit. not that theyll ( Read more... )

just like it was during the last phase of my high school years, ive left cypress already and im just thinking about long beach...im just coasting through my classes and waiting for them to be over so i can move on. my 3d design teacher really annoys me. he has favorites-which i understand, because i would too if i were a teacher-but he pretty much ( Read more... )

my friend elaine, who will be getting married at a date even shes not sure about, is holding a reception which seems kinda out of whack. mind you, this is not a church wedding, but a simple, low-key civil wedding. however, since she comes from a (very) wealthy family, her mom and sister wanted to have a grand reception nonetheless. someone in her ( Read more... )

i finally got my letter from cal state long beach, to my surprise, i got in! im pissing with excitement. on top of that, i got my spankin new phone, but my mom decided she doesnt like the ultra-techy new phone i chose for her, so she gave it to me while she used some old phone that i have.yayyy!anyone care to celebrate with me?

i have not logged on to this thing in ages. frankly, i miss it. since i have no friends to talk to in person due to my insanely busy schedule, at least 2 or 3 of my friends can read this. anyhow, lots of car problems lately. my friend pearl, whom i was teaching how to drive some time ago, wanted to pull up to a curb beside her house. she ( Read more... )

on thursday i went to south el monte to do my background check for the job im applying...hopefully it takes much less time than i was told, and perhaps they did that to either a)discourage applicants and/or b)not making them expect much in terms of waiting times. my stepmom assured me that it shouldnt take so long given that i had thoroughly ( Read more... )
