How about I turn my lecture notes into tumblr-post style from now on?
Will I be more attentive in class?
Will I get some interesting followers?
Peace yo!
I just sent out the job application. Now all I have to do it wait until tomorrow morning, go to the library to print out my resumes and cover letter, go to the post office to mail it, then I can sit back and wait.
I really want this job and hopefully I will hear back from them.
Peace.
Don't be saddies! You are so gorgeous.
He is just dumb.
Guys are that way. Either you are "insecure" or you aren't "pretty" enough.
However, you are confident AND beautiful.
Just do your thing and you will find someone perfect for you :]
Thank you so much Abby!
I am just being a big whiny.
My next goal is to meet an awesome zoologist who is kind to animals. haha

Tonight, I realized that I may never see him again. Him, that face, the person that I’ve come to expect to see everyday. He’s moved on with his life, and I suppose I should too. After all, we cannot all continue to hold on to the hours much longer; in a matter of a few weeks, we will separate. The…
Regardless of whoever this post is about, you are about to meet a new man of your life. Ready? Set, GO!
Up, get up,up!
Just a thought
Day by day you become less important to me. Time is running short and I can feel it that I will be gone before you know it.
I guess I just want you to treasure me while I am here?
I'm in my Mineral and Gem class and it is awesome
Fun fact:
Over 4000 mineral types hve been described but only 20 or so account for the bulk of most rocks. Geologists call these mineral types “rock-forming” minerals.

P.S. I ran an all-nighter last night and I am super shaky now. Hopefully I will be able to make it through work until 9p.m. so I can crash like a pig.
Ivana just went to bed and I'm on my own again.
Laughed so hard that my belly hurts now.
Jocelyn,
Did you finish your article?? I couldn’t find an ask button on your page, so hopefully you see this ^^
No, I did not. But I went out to interview people so now I am filled with inspirations! Thanks for asking <3

Since when do text messages give me mood swings like stock market?
me: If they hire me it will be my dream job……..(blah blah blah, details about the job)
cw: dammmmmmmmn, how many jobs are you getting?
me: Ha, I can only work for one job in the end but for I’m just applying to whatever jobs that interest me. Exploring my options.
cw: Now that is good planning :)
me: Sorry if I’m telling you too much info about my job hunting recently. I know it can be confusing and frustrating to listen to because I keep on mentioning jobs all over the world.
me: just let me know and I will stop. I can just tell you when I make up my freaking mind.
cw: hahaha I have no problem with status updates.
cw: I just think it is tight that you are actually finding all these places
me: Thanks! I try to do what I am good at: digging interesting thins that ppl might have overlooked. But then I suck at decision-making. The same thing happens when I write. I end up having too much info and quotes and torned apart what info I want to fit into my news stories with limited space. lol
cw: haha that sounds like a very common problem! :)
me: haha true story. how I heard about this job was crazy. I was watching rhinos last night and I told Ivana about this one zoologist..(blah blah blah)
cw: Well, that is how things happen!
cw: Night!:)
By the time he said goodnight, I was listening to my best gay friend so I decided not to respond to him. This whole convo drives me crazy. It proves my point, he simply doesn’t want to comment on my job hunting adventures. He wants to know, but he stays cold and won’t give feedback.
P.S. When I told him about how my stuffed sea otter Tongass has a broken neck, he texted me back immediately and said, “aw, poor sea otter. I am sure you will perform some surgery on him so he can cure right?”
Seriously, wtf, dude.
Jocelyn,
I moved the ask to queue on accident, but yes! Aim :]
Yes, and we are talking now! Yay!
what I hate about being a girl :
- Periods
- Period cramps
- Sore tits
- Mood swings
- Picking out outfits for the day
- Styling hair after showering
- Having a hard time running cause of your tits
- Making sure you don’t get pregnant
- Carrying the baby
- Being called a bitch, whore, hoe for no apparent reason
- Having pedophiles hit on you
- Shaving all the time.
- Having to deal with douchebag guys.
Amen
True story.
to-do list continues
-print out resumes- get folders
- make copies of my clips
- Beacon Hill first draft
- zoo story
And adding one more to my list:
- think of an outfit for tomorrow’s visit to Seattle Chinese Times (For once I am worried about outfits when I go see an employer but not Chris.)
It’s now 1:49a.m. and I just spent 2 hours comforting a friend who has been upset about his social life instead of doing my work. I REALLY need to finish that story on Beacon Hill and I will do now despite the fact I need to wake up really early tomorrow for an office visit and then internship. First day of Spring Quarter is gonna be so much fun. Ugh.

Debate: Seattle Internation Piano Competition - Yes or No?
