About Me
About Mewhy don't U write in UR blog?
a friend asked me that. why? for the past few months I've been writing to help me out mentally. writing down my feelings and the pain helps me to release what would otherwise be bottled up. my sadness has been slowly dissolving away. the need for me to pour my feelings into this blog has diminished.
work has been draining. my project had so many hiccups. it was delayed for 3 weeks. each week I'd work hard on it, only to realize that there was something wrong and delayed. I didn't want it to be delayed anymore, so I took work home. I would do an additional 2-3 hrs every night, and work on it all weekend long. I even brought it to my father's shop! yea, I'm different from most of my peers at work. Now, my piece is done, it's still getting delayed. but once it's done, we'll be past our goal. the only driving force behind it is I put in for a promotion. it'll help secure my job and gives me more money.
I'm having a lot of bad feelings towards my cousin. my sister doesn't want me to say anything. so I'll just leave it at that. there WILL be a talk. I'm the type to say how it is... kind of gets me in trouble sometimes.
I'm becoming increasingly unhappy with my phone!! especially after texting on my itouch. it feels so unresponsive and the keyboard is really twitchy. I'm due for a new phone, but the biggest thing I'm waiting for is dual-core on a cellphone. it'll be a few more months until I find one that I like.
me & mme? we're happy. she especially likes the fact that I can cook for her. I have an iron stomach and dead taste buds, I'm always worried that it might taste bad or make her sick. so far so good!
Mood: things are hectic, but I'm lovin it!!
start of a new year
another year passes by. of course turning 30 is a big deal, but I don't feel any different. I feel like I'm having a fresh start from before. looking a head I see a lot going for me...
work has been hectic. but as always I enjoy it! I'm semi in charge of a project. A lot of the decisions that I make really effect what happens. so I'm trying hard not to screw it up. But I'm feeling a lot of pressure since the project is already behind since BEFORE I was assigned to it. I've even went as far as taking work home. yes, a state worker taking stuff home... unthinkable!! I try to meet my deadlines... even tho in the back of my head I know that it's not the end of the world. I still feel horrible if I don't meet it. at the very least I try my very best to meet it. I'm still waiting to hear about the promotion request I put in. I have a lot of people rooting for me.
I've been meeting lots of people in the past few months. I want to be more social to change my old ways of being closed off. in the past few months I've met lots of amazing people! and the people that I kno already, I'm trying to be closer with. I'm a big believer on having a handful of really close friends.
there's no way I can talk about the future without mentioning mme. I don't kno why it seems more official when it gets posted onto facebook. I guess UR kind of announcing to the world that UR together. I'm really happy being around her.
Mood: dark days are behind me... things are getting brighter all the time!
new start...
my year has a bittersweet start... I'm happy yet sad...
it will be explained later as to why...

I had fun on my trip. it was a little stressful for me because I don't like spending a lot of money. but at least it's only a once in a while. it was organized by my friend, she invited two of her friends. a guy and a girl, so it was 2:2.
now... for the darwin moment... I got the flight date wrong. I left the 23rd but everyone didn't get there until the 24th. I knew that I would be spending a lot of money, so I didn't want to get a hotel for the night. so I lived like tom hanks in terminal :P I was able to pass out a little on 2 benches that were across from each other. I think the weirdest thing had to be someone laying down blankets by a window and passing right out. about 26 hrs from when I landed... I met up with 2/4 of the group.
I wasn't the only one that had flying trouble. the two that I met up with arrived to ewr late, so their bags didn't make it on the plane with them. the airline put it on the next flight. and I heard news that the last person missed her flight, so she was on standby. she was able to get on the next flight. and arrived about 2hrs later. the 3 of us went to the fontainebleau hotel. getting into the room... first thing... SHOWER!! since I had my glasses on, I'm used to taking out my contacts. I flushed one contact down the drain. I as able to find my left one!! so the rest of the trip I had one contact. everything kind of looked 3d! interesting experience.
pretty much the things we really did was eat, walk around, just hanging out and relaxing. I'm used to waking up early and working out. most of the mornings I waited around for everyone else to wake up :( until I realized that I can workout and shower before they realize I'm gone!! so this trip I dropped about 2 pounds :D
since there was a blizzard sunday/monday... I got an email sun night saying that my flight was cancelled. so when monday rolled around... I did a morning workout and tried to get in touch with the airline to try to get back home. all lines were busy. my cousin's husband works as a pilot for the airline, pretty much said their phone system sucks. the best way is to go to the airport and talk to someone. I was going to go later. but I got a little emotional. and rushed out. I got to the airport and the line for newark was really long. an hour wait later. I decided to go to phl and the next flight would be wends early morning. I opted for one later in the day. I overheard the person at the counter next to mine that the next flight to ewr wouldn't be until sunday. I didn't mind since I left early and my friends would leave the next day, and my friend's friend would leave 31st. so I have a place to stay until then.
I'll write more later
Mood: glad I went. glad I'm home
