Mar:(
Today’s the first time I’m taking formal college-level classes since graduation… and after glancing through the materials and watched about an hour of lectures, I decided to drop both classes :’<
It’s not that the course is hard. Nor that I am a slacker. Who signs up for classes and then drop them to feel like a failure? I definitely didn’t. It’s just that the timing of these classes are not working out with my work/life schedule for the next few weeks :( Yeah yeah I could be making up excuses left and right to justify this situation. If I have the capacity, I would totally tough through it all. But in all honesty, I am already spreading myself a little thin. Working nearly 10 hrs a day, plus preparing for an exam, AND all the while handle my parents. I crashed last weekend. I slept for all Saturday, ate nothing. And the only thing I did Sunday was going to Costco to get me some TreeTop fruit snacks. *sigh.
If these classes started maybe a couple weeks earlier or later, it would have been cake. I’m disappointed in myself, the situation that I am stuck in, and my inability to handle it like a pro. I want to be the super female who could have family, career, and life all at the same time. But the truth is, I am not capable :(
Sometimes I do miss my college days. I HAD SO MUCH TIME TO DO WHATEVER I WANT. So what I was a little broke?
What a sad day to realize all this =\
In case you’re wondering…These are the classes that I dropped:

is this what i want for my birthday?
a typical 12pak kcup is about $7-$9… which is about $0.55-$0.75 a cup. i would be saving money if i can keep my kcup spending at that.
but the brewer cost a spankin new benjamin. i’d have to use it A LOT before the savings would cover the cost…
hmmm… i donno.

Gossip Girl… watching it from the beginning because Netflix has 4 seasons on stream :) I’m not sure if I like this show yet but I’m already 4 episodes in. It’s some kind of guilty pleasure because it’s as far from reality as it gets, yet there are moments where I would be like, “oh shit, life imitates arts!”
Other people’s drama is the best drama.

Marmy ipods are like mini time capsules
going through songs on 2 of my ipods that i haven’t updated in years. looks like i looooved ballywood/dance/house/rap/hiphop/hella jay chou music back in the day.
my taste really haven’t changed much el oh el!
anyways, this reminds me… how many ipods have i owned?
- Shuffle - none
- Mini - none
- Nano - 3
- Classic - 1
- Touch - 3
- Phone - none… soon hopefully? HAHA
Ugh I feel so bad cuz I’m going through ipods like candy and i kinda want the new nano =\ but i really shouldn’t. it has to be a crime to own and probably still own this many ipod products, and not recycle any of them! god please i hope al gore will never find me.

ever since i’ve downloaded a manga reader app, i’ve been burning the midnight oil nerding out to my favorite guilty pleasure.
right now i’m re-reading ふしぎ遊戯 fushigi yuugi. last time i read it i was still in HS, and it was the chinese version cuz my cousins for some odd reason love their japanese manga in chinese… LOL! this is pretty much the epitome of shōjo fantasy manga. i’m ready to melt my heart into mush by unrealistic love story tonight. yup.

Nov2 things I’ve learned from an interview
Interviewee:
do not talk smack about your interviewers from previous sessions. it makes you look like a whiner with a poor attitude who can’t work with people.
Interviewer:
do not ask an interview question that you don’t know the answer to. it makes you look like an idiot when your interviewee asks you what the answer is and you have no freakin clue.
ditto… ditto!
