Weekend Getaway

Oh yeah, I wish!

I have to be at work today at 4AM...I can't say that I'm not a morning person, and I can't say that I am a night person. I'm flexible but I prefer to be somewhere in between. Lack of sleep is not my favorite thing in the world. Should I admit that I am a sleep maniac???? Hmmm... I guess I am :)

Paris, I really would like to go there sometime...

Darn it! my freaking password is not working to renew my borrowed books online! It'll expire tomorrow and heck! I don't want to pay 20 bucks for the fine...

I feel so bloated...and I hate PMS!

Miscellaneous

I received a call yesterday for a customer service position. The lady who left the message said that they found my resume through SDSU's career website. I haven't call them back yet because I really don't want to work doing customer service. This job requires tons and tons of patience... believe me, working at Mickey D's has been tough especially when you're faced with stoooooopid and picky customers!

I was so annoyed with the two students who were sitting in front of me earlier...that was in my Social Psych class...they were chatting while our professor is lecturing...Golly! I think she was flirting with the guy and c'mon now, the classroom is not the place to do especially if it distracts ME!!! They should've just went outside the auditorium and do their thing!...I'm sorry, I do flirt with guys but that's before class, and NOT during class!

I've been tagged by my froggy buddy and heck, he gave me a hard time because he disabled copy/paste in his blog and I'm just too lazy to type everything up... Oh well, I survived! hahaha! just kidding I copied the whole thing from the link in his blog...

here it goes:
Ten Years Ago: I was 15 years old. I enjoyed joining the CAT and dreamt of becoming an officer. I had a crush on our commandant (he was in 4th year then, EX-O) and I found out that he was courting this girl that I hated the most (she was our officer, too! but I just hate her coz she always asks us to do squats!). This is also the year, when I realized that I have to study hard because I've been slacking off and I was at the 4th place in the first grading period. Good thing I was able to catch up by the end of the school year, 2nd in rank, and also got the Batallion S1 position in CAT. I also had a terrible Chemistry teacher, I was her assistant because I was one of the school's scholars... heck! I received 2 pinches from her the first two weeks of class. Finally, this is also the time that I almost had a BF...hahaha...this reminds me of him!

Five Years Ago: The year of challenges....I am so sad that I wished I was back home doing my thing...the year of adjustment...It was so hard because I have to get used with my new environment. I was also told that I have to wait one year to become a CA resident... I worked two jobs while waiting...This was the turning point of our family's lives...We have to start from zero. We rented two rooms and it's just so hard dealing with the owner of the house....I can't count how many times I cried because I felt so sorry for us and the way some people treated us...

Two Years Ago:I turned 23, I was able to claim myself independently when filing my financial aid...resulted of getting enough $$$ for my school's tuition. The year when I was finally done with my lower division GEs and the time to transfer at SDSU....

One year ago: Oh I decided to switch from Nursing to Psychology at SDSU because I was so frustrated for not getting in the Nursing program

Yesterday: Hahaha, I dared my supervisor that I will close the store because I don't have enough crew....I am so mean, huh?

~~~~~~~
Five Snacks I Enjoy: vanilla pudding with tapioca, fritos, hot cheetos, Chex Mix (honey nut), carne asada chips with sour cream and guacamole...I miss these foods!!! I haven't eaten these in 6 months!!!

Five Songs I Know All the Words To: It might be you, I will always love you, You are my Home, Forevermore, Happy Birthday to you

Five Places I Would Run Away To: Hawaii, Mexico, Italy, Australia, Canada

Five Things I Would Never Wear: tatoo, stilleto, a really really short hair, micromini, leather pants

Five Favorite TV Shows: 30 minute meals, FRIENDS, Amazing Race, The Apprentice, WB's News at 10

Five bad habits: I pile up my laundry, I pile up my washed laundry, I pile up my clothes needed to be ironed, watching too much TV sometimes, waiting for last minute to read my textbooks

Five biggest joys: iced tea (flavored or not), not driving, eating, having things my way (Hahaha), my family and friends

Five favorite toys: toys??? when I was a kid I love sungka, barbie, paperdolls, medicine stuff, kitchen stuff. Now, celfone, cd player, pots and pans, threadmill, curling iron

Finally!.. thanks to Fides!

Finally, thorough the help of Fides, I was able to know the title of my so called favorite song as of this moment....
The first time I heard it, gees.. I can so relate and I hope that someone is singing that song for me, too!!!!

Oh well, I also received two nice emails... one from my bestfriend/kumare and she was telling me about my godson's birthday party last Saturday.. and of course along with that, were chikkas about our batchmates/friends...
Another email, came from my Social Psych professor, congratulating me for getting an A in our first test...The class is so huge and only 3 students got A's out of 300. He stated some kind words which motivated me even more to study really hard in that class...I'll try to be as smart as I can be, so I can get a referrral for graduate school, just in case, I decide to go for my Masters...He's such a sweetheart... If I'm going to be teacher, I wanna be like him...

Stress Free

My whole weekend last week has been covered with stress.
I realized Monday night that I was so behind in my reading and to think that I have two tests on today made my anxiety level worst.

I haven't sleep much last night coz of the thunderstorms. I have to wake up 1AM and had a hard time sleeping then.

I had butterflies in my stomach when I got to school. I was so nervous!
11 AM, time for my first test in Social Psychology, still anxious, I started reading the first question, Gees! I was stucked! Went and read the second question, golly!I have no clue where the question came from. The butterflies in my stomach started flying up and down. I finally managed to turn in my scantron after an hour of butterfly disturbances.

I badly needed to eat lunch after that.
I still have one more test to go.
1 PM, I was cramming to put all terminologies in my head.
2 PM, my drugs and behavior class started. I was praying that I won't forget anything especially the parts of the brain affected by certain drugs.

I survived the day at school.

As of this moment, I am checking blackboard if the grades are posted already.

Guess what?
Got both A's!!!

Thank God!

Something to think about

An old guy friend suddenly tells his old gal friend that he's falling in love with here, what should a decent young lady do about it?

Then she asked him, "Huh? are you kidding? since when?"

He replied,"I just woke up and realize that I am falling in love with you."

It never crossed her mind that he will tell her that they should be more than friends.

Well, I think it's okay to move forward as long as they're on the same boat. But, I don't think that the lady wants them to be more than friends. How will she tell the guy the real thing without hurting or better yet affecting their friendship? Is it really possible that they can still go on as friends after she tells him that she's not on the same page?

~~~~~~
I would like to have a baby now! but is it possible that I won't go through 9 months of carrying a baby?
Gees, I really need to get a pet soon! I'm having hormonal imbalance! :p

Toxicity!

I have tons of reading to do!!!!!
I have to scream this out because my stress level is starting to rise. I have two tests on Tuesday and heck, they both require textbook reading! The thing about me and textbook is I have to read each chapter twice, once for just skimming through highlights and second to summarize each section.

I've been complaining like a hyperactive child but seriously I'm learning so much stuff about social psychology. It's just the test that I hate. Arrgh!

There goes my weekend but I guess I'm still gonna play bowling tomorrow night :p

Oh Wells

I received another fone call from a prospective employer. I'll give her a call tomorrow because when I got her VM, it's already past 5PM. It's a job as a care manager, the job Irish refered me to. Hope the schedule will be just perfect for me.

I called the library to put a book on reserve. Heck, they sent me the wrong edition of the book. The guy who answered the fone sounded like crap!..Gees, now, I have to go back to the library to pick up the right one! GAAAAASSSSSSSS!!!!

I have to do my homework! what the heck am I doing!

9/11

Let us remember those who died in the morning of September 11, 2001 and those who died after saving several lives.

Saturday, September 10, 2005

Oh crap!

News in the Philippines just pisses me off...No offense but I don't know if it's the so-called "exagerration" of the the media people or it's just plainly the truth. I think, I'd rather listen to showbiz news than the real current events.

Anyways, as usual, I am dead tired. I have to open the store at 5 AM and "supposedly" off at 1 PM. Too bad, that didn't happen. Thank God for caffeine because I managed to work 9 and half hours straight without taking a break. I had a not so good sleep last night...I'll spare you the details but I decided not to.

I dropped by at the community library on my way home. I put a book on reserve because I am required to to do two book reports on child development.

Aside from the book report, I still have several chapters to read. Upper division classes make you read and write like there's no tomorrow.

I think I broke my bone. I was doing this exercise for my triceps when I felt pain on my left shoulder. Looking on the bright side, I am happy that I can now do push ups! *pats my back* but not right now, because of the left shoulder.

I need to buy D&G Light Blue, I'm running out of supply...and I think this week will be the last day of Summertime at See's. Have you guys tasted that? Heck! it's so darn good!
The weather's starting to be gloomy and chilly, DST will end soon and yeah, Christmas will be just around the corner. Too bad, I won't be spending Christmas and New Year here in the US... Well, it's all good

Have a good weekend!

Job interview

I received a call today regarding the job that Irish told me. The available schedule doesn't fit mine...
Then, I received an email from our school's job connections regarding this temp position helping the victims of Hurricane Katrina...I applied online and we'll see how it goes...

Finally, Ate Cynthia was able to buy me Gary V's new CD, Pure Heart. Two of my fave songs are in there, How did you know and Because of You...Cool huh?

Basically, I'm under SENTIMENTAL mode...

Some Thoughts

I am beginning to experience how hard having 4 classes all in one day...They're giving me a headache...seriously, I think my brain is having some sort of information overload.

Been hearing and reading a lot of stuff about the recent disaster that happened here in the US. My school's gym has been used for some refugees. I would really love to volunteer but school is in my way. I can't give any monetary donations but I would really love to work for the Red Cross.

I've been thinking what could have been my life right now if I got in the US Navy... I am one test away from it. My aunt who's in Army Reserves right now has been called on duty to help out in New Orleans.

Natural disasters like this is really devastating, not only physically, but emotionally due to the loss of lives. I remember when Mt. Pinatubo erupted in 1991, it's really scary and it seems like your lives are over. We can't control Mother Nature, but theleast we can do is to do something to help out those people who were greatly affected by the disaster.

The sign I asked God

Saturday night, as I was praying before finally taking a snooze, I asked God for a sign.
Sunday morning, the sign existed!

Last night, I asked him for another sign...
Today's a new day...and I'm waiting...


Follow-up post:
I didn't go somewhere today.. I decided to stay at home and save gas...
The sign wasn't fulfilled because I avoided it by not going out...

Oh well...it's all good...

Tired and Weary

I've been turning in my resume these past couple of days...I haven't got any calls yet...I'm hoping to find the perfect part time job...

I went to work today....Remember the words that came out from my supervisor's mouth? I took it seriously... After a week, I decided it's time to show up to work. Spoiled huh? :p
Anyways, I told my boss my new availability (she didn't know though that I've been applying already to several jobs)... I'm glad that her Immigration problem is over...

I went to the bank today.. The teller told me that I can put my money in the money market...I still have no clue how it works but the interest is pretty high....I am not really into investments,IRA, stocks, and stuff like that. I better know something about those kind of stuff so I can use my bank money efficiently...Oh well, I bought it and hopefully it'll work just fine...

Second Day of Class

The school was so crowded!
I didn't realize that I have 4 classes and the load of all the textbooks were unbearable....
Remember the professor I was talking about last semester? I took him again for Drugs and Behavior. He's starting to bald but he's still cute! :)
My Social Psych professor sounded so interesting. He lectures real good! but he admitted that he gives hard tests...
With my Child Psych class, my professor is kinda old. He talks really slow. I heard he's an easy A...I hope so...
For my Intro to Research Methods, I have the same professor from my Personality Psych last Fall so basically, I have clues already how she sets up her class.

All my classes except for the Intro are big ones. There's 300 students in each class...it's very overwhelming but I pretty much enjoy the crowd...

I'm bouncy today coz I received a check from the school!!!!!
