I'm terrible. And I feel terrible. Pretending that I can give so much attention to this blog and post my insights as they flow through me. Darn. I feel ashamed - not holding on to the promise of NEVER EVER neglecting one of my first discovered passions.
Okay. Stop the whole drama.
Life is great - has been great...so far...so good...no, so great!
First off - the career I wanted to pursue..is going on smoothly. And I really can't complain. Hours are great. The pay is just awesome. And the people I work with..hhmm? Okay as long as the pay is good and I can be able to pay all my bills right now, everything's good. Let's just worry about the peeps later, shall we?
Second, one of my best friends crossed my path again! How many of you can say that in your lifetime? Uhmm, like 2?! Ha! I couldn't be happier. We had so many fun memories together. And I know we laughed a lot, giggled a lot and cut classes a lot! She was my first best friend in college - and we rocked and rolled...ahh teenage life's a bliss...(sigh)
I told you life is good. I suppose it all started when I promised myself I will start eating fruits again and yes, veggies, too. I think it's like sort of a cosmic karma or something. I wish I have some bigger words tonight but I've been reading the insurance policy I have to sign soon and I gotta tell ya, those are gigantic words I couldn't quite fathom.. je ne comprend pas..I should give that girl a call tomorrow and have her explain in LAYgirl's term.
It's been a hectic week but I am feeling rather better than my usual hectic weeks..I am able to pay my bills and will be able to pay past bills, present bills and future bills - hey, I live in bill country. And the "kill bill" movie never got shown here, I don't think. (insert smile here)
In the meanest time, I would like to share with you a video that somehow inspired me to rethink my thinking about vegetables. Ha!
After all, vegetables are colorful...and fun to cook!
Stay healthy my furry friends..spring is just across the street!

A brand new Year!
Wow! I almost forgot my password. I almost lost this blog. Whew!
Yes I know it has been a loooong(est) while since I last laid my eyes in here. Since my hands and brain got coordinated and made some sense in coming up with words.
I've been busy! (a.k.a. the most overused summary of your lifestory). I was busy with some important things (like my life) and some unimportant things like making sure I was taking care of my fish in fishworld. Believe me it can be really time-consuming!
So let me update you with what's up with this so-called life of mine. This year has been presenting me with good surprises. So far, the career I am trying to pursue is proving to be worth-pursuing. I almost lost hope threading this road. BUT! I suppose perseverance and determination are two keys you shouldn't leave the house without. I was trying to align my life with what I think I should be doing to succeed. BUT when life is telling you where to go - you should listen and don't fight it - then your road gets smoother. And plans can be easily achieved.
This year has been good so far. It would probably be a year to heal - the soul, the heart and even the pocket. At least that's how I am hoping it would be.
That's all for now, my furry friends. It's a workweek and I need my beauty rest. Ha!
Sleep tight and keep wishing for a longer weekend..

Jammin' in p'jammies
WOW. It's saturday and I just realized I didn't go out of the house (apartment) for 5 days! Yesss..I was in my pj's all week long. WOW.
Don't say I was depressed or repressed or compressed. Frankly, I think I have regressed. HA! Don't get me starting.
I wasn't or didn't feel anymore lonesome. What did me in my jammies accomplished for five days? For one, I caught up on all epis of the tv shows I kinda neglected while cramming/stressing for school. Second, I rearranged some furniture and stuff (hoping to redirect the "chi" flow). Third, I brushed up on my baking and cooking (which I found out still relaxes me). And fourth, for the first time in so long, I didn't fill up the hamper with all my clothes. Yey!
Being at home and in your pjs all day long isn't so bad after all. I wasn't really in hibernation 'coz I was out there - sending out my applications to a whole lot of companies who might take notice of my talents. I watched the news, read the news and hoped I'd have some news. We'll see.
Now, I am off to play to my weekend playground. Hoping I still get some playtime schedule. Cross your walks!

The life after
And Soooo! (what the manager @ the restaurant would usually greet us - sounds more like "SAW" actually)
To continue, and SO! I finished the Professional Cooking course - fourteen months that seemed like for'eva! That is actually a great achievement for my restless spirit...to be able to stay focused (not that I almost didn't make it y'know) and not give up - as compared to the masters degree I tried working on a few years back - short story: got a diff job, got distracted, diff sked, left school. There! wasn't so hard to share, was it?
And so! what got me to taking this cooking course? 16 months ago, I applied for a job I sooo wanted, didn't get hired b'cause I didn't have the right paper they were looking for. Had the right attitude, personality, but not the right paper.
And so! I enrolled and now I have the right paper but not the right job!
Is life actually toying with me now?? As soon as I knew I will be over and done with - I started planning on where and which place I would like to be. I've sent out the right paper to diff companies - and voila! I got a call from one of them - all excited and what have you - BUT!!!!...I don't have the right language! HOOOOOKAY!
And so! I got the right paper, but don't have the right language this time. RRRRIGHT!
I feel so screwed.
Have you ever felt that way? That your best is not good enough - there's always something missing.
And so! I could be missing something here - as what my aunt would tell me - if you don't find your luck here, go someplace else.
Or I can just have the right language, ce tout!
P.S. Can you believe this? All serious stuff I wrote today. WOW...must be sick.

Living with numbers
I know I know...I haven't forgotten you, my furry friends. I just had a bout of brain freeze that it took quite a bit for my brain cells to thaw.
Just so you know, it is 67 days to go for my blog anniversary (that's according to the meter on the right), 3 days for my birthday, 69 days 'til Christmas, 76 days til the new year and about 3 hours before I leave for school.
I don't know if you ever get to notice that our daily lives is surrounded by numbers. And I hate Math! I took Psychology in college thinking that I'd get away from the subject, but what d'ya know, come second semester, I had Statistics! not just 1 but 2.
As we grow older, we learn that more and more numbers rule our lives. 2 Parents, 2 siblings, 1 teacher to start, then all of a sudden you have a dozen - (that's 12 by the way) Then before you know it, you are writing your address - and it's with numbers!
Can there be some changes for a change????? Like, what if your apartment door is called apartment nutella (no number there) and then your street is called hazelnut street across walnut. Or what if your age goes for colors and not numbers? "Oh so you are in yellow age eh"...ha! means you have hepatitis or something.eew! not a good idea.
okay, we'll just stick with numbers. FOR NOW...until somebody thinks of something....
In the meantime, it's almost 12 noon, and I only have about 3 hours left...to get ready.

Apathy may be the answer
Today, I am going to try to give the best advice (so far) I can give my person. (Hey, you should see the sign up @ the airport "...your person may be searched")
Here's the thing: I am developing some kind of disgust at some people I met recently. And I hate feeling that way. It's a major "stressor" for me. And I suppose for a lot of you out there and beyond. There's nothing more stressful than being around people who are born to stress others. It is just who they are. Aliens of another world. They like to see people suffer the same fate as they are in. Bozos. Losers.
Okay, so far it is working now, I don't need to give this advice to my "person" but I should type it anyway...
Point of the matter is: YOU (yes, you my person), is not in their level. You are far better than who and where they are. They are jealous of what you can become after you are done being around them.
It is not fair to cradle the thoughts of a loser especially when you know yourself, you are not born to be one.
So what if they wanted to stress you out by being mean. YOU know who you are and UNFORTUNATELY for them, they don't. Because if they did, maybe you could have shared your blessings with them - and perhaps, eventually change their alien form - NOT!
I call them aliens from another world because if they were aliens from this world then maybe there's a chance to be human.
There's about 54 hours left you need to spend with them, they don't need to be a part of your life. But think of it as a reminder that these types of aliens exist and YOU should know that your best bet is not to be affected by them - they are not worth it!
There, I hope my person is comprehending this and will remember this word - "apathy". It's a good defense for aliens of another world.
Good Luck!

When Wisdom is Not Essential
I had the final two of my wisdom teeth pulled out today.
The other two was pulled out around fall last year. Now, I live without "wisdom". But no worries my furry friends, I still have my happiness, wit and charm. Isn't life exciting?
Yes, since being without my "wisdom" teeth, I suppose that as long as you still have your "happiness", "wit", and "charm" - you will be okay. I must admit though, it may be a bit hard for the others to keep up - since "wisdom" has four pillars assigned.
Nevertheless, life should go on amidst pain and challenges (at least for the first 24 hours).
In the meantime, don't expect any words of advice from me, ain't got any.
(p.s. this is by far, my shortest post, I think)

Name Change
Whew! as you can see from your navigation tool bar - I've decided to change the name of this blog. It's still the same blog, my furry friends. Just a different address.
Why? you may want to ask. Okay, you don't want to ask but I will tell you anyway.
I feel like I've outgrown the crazeegirl thing. I am not really crazy to begin with (just in denial). And I think a new name is in order. However order you may want to be in. There you lost me.
Seriously, the new name will hopefully bring out some new perspective in my life specifically - because by the way, it is my blogsite, right? But of course if it was yours and you're the one writing it, then it will be a new perspective in YOUR life. Okay, lost me again.
To go back to what I'm trying to convey. Perhaps a new name will motivate and inspire this blog-a-bunch for more in depth analysis of what's out there.
Why bubble, again you might ask. But if you don't want to ask, I will tell you anyway.
Bubble, not because of the leader of the powerpuff girls (minus the "s"), but simply because, the "world" has already been taken. Get it? Ha! But really, the word "world" is already taken. Can you believe that phrase? The world has already been taken. Yay! by who?? I'm scared now. Ha!
So I suppose I can never be so serious with whatever thought pops into my (bubble)head. But seriously, I am a firm believer that our lives need some toning down of seriousnessities (okay, completely lost!).
I am going to write more, I promise, my furry friends. Right now, I am just too tired to even entertain any thought provoking "thoughts" creeping into my mind.
After all, summer is knocking at my door.
Come on in!
