Growing GROWN Up

It's a weird feeling this is...

the feeling that I'm finally graduated and can officially call myself a CAL ALUM.
the feeling that I no longer have a place to call home in Berkeley.
the feeling that when I came home, this was the first time I unpacked all my things and put them in drawers.
the feeling that home is now, what it is...HOME.

despite still living with my parents, I'm an adult with a degree...and now with a job and ten times the more responsibility than I've ever had in my life. Time to learn the ropes of managing my bank account, paying my credit card, having my own insurance, and so on.

I'm 23 and have no clue. I feel like everything just crept up on me, but I guess we all have to start somewhere. So here it is, the beginning of adulthood and the end of this blog. This thing started five years ago with a promise to end it once I've graduated...can't believe it's already time!

Here's to the good, the bad, the ugly...but most importantly, the beautiful memories...like my little cousin told me in a graduation card, "Welcome to the real world, well actually you've been in the real world after high school. But this time, the world is BIGGER."



Thank you for reading, good luck to everyone...life is definitely tough but just remember to always do what makes you happy, because then at least you know you'll be "okay." And who knows, I just might surprise you with another blog ;)

less than two weeks.

it's so frustrating. im about to apply to mcdonalds at this point. ok, maybe nordstroms or some other place that id shop at. im serious too.

it's times like this that i SWEAR the world is against me. i can recall plenty of other situations where unlucky/misfortune/whatever you can add to the list, was my middle name.

i wish i was back in high school where things always went my way and there wasn't a worry in the world. now theres jobs, grad schools, LIFE.

boo-FREAKIN-hoo.

im a hard worker, where are my fruits?

wack!

im going to be internet-less for a while until the new account is being set up. this may be a good thing since i have a midterm on monday. but then again what am i gonna do after monday?

my sister tells me that my mom might have a party for my grandparents who are visiting from philippines AND my 30-something year old cousin? wtf?! did i not graduate this year? it's because im the middle child.

still jobless in sd and im going back in two weeks. why doesn't anyone like me?? :( there's a job i want to apply to in sf, HEH yea freakin right!

nothingness

i feel like a blob. saturday i sat around, napped, recovered from staying up all week for no real reason. sunday sat around bc...i just didnt wanna do homework.

at least some good things came out of this weekend: chit chatted with good ol' brian. don't think ive seen this guy since second year when he was our source for beverages and now we're loungin' sipping legally. went jogging...didn't last long but it's a start!

im bored, well lazy actually and my head hurts. plus job hunting still sucks. whatever..bye bitches. hopefully ill get to sleep at a decent time tonight so i can study all day tomorrow.

no clubbing this weekend?! :)

finally because im over it.

my first "movie night in the park" was just splendid. families, friends, couples...it was just good vibes all around. and what better movie to watch than the classic "sixteen candles." i wouldnt mind do this again :)

also spent a sunday afternoon at the beach. tanning?? haha...not really. and thats a good thing.

i also started reading. i know, big shocker.

yaaaaaay-yah!

so my dumbass never kept up with rapid rewards my whole college career and yet, there has been a miracle. i was able to add past flights to my new rapid rewards account and now have a free flight! thank the Lord for emailed flight confirmations :)

i take it back

the last entry that is...haha, emotions are too high right now. i blame it on the estrogen.

im seriously addicted to painting my nails :x im never that girly!

did you know that hershey's kisses have different phrases written on that little strip of paper now? kinda like fortune chocolates but not really. guess what mine said today? "i miss you" heh...puuuurfect.

im never buying a bag of picos again..theyre dangerous to my health.

18 fricken days...here we go. id like to think of it as a good segway into the real shit.

i wanna read but am too lazy to go to the library to get books. HAHA.
