Thank you to my favorite siblings in the whole wide world + korexican for getting me a macbook air! I truly feel loved.
I promise to do my very best to not break it! 24 will be my lucky year to not break things. :]
i really did make a conscious effort to try to post a picture everyday!
but when technology and i don’t agree [i.e. my phone doesn't upload the pictures on wordpress!] then i guess … the end of my new years resolution.
i guess when it starts working again i’ll try to upload the pictures that were meant to be posted
.. salvage!
Forgot to share a little something today. So I guess I’ll share more today. give and take.
Saw the sunset while driving home on the 5 today. More like the korean drove, Ninjah slept in the backseat and I played Muffin Knight. One good thing about living on the West Coast. The sun will set beautifully.
Little shoes randomly in the garage. Made my heart melt.
Saw this super cute BCBG shoe but COULD NOT FIND ITS MATE when shopping with the mother. Really hunted for it too. Sad. Rarely do I like to shop for shoes..and like shopping.
Remember when you were in elementary/middle school and you would get those catalogs that were made of recycled paper of books to order? And you were basically ordering the books based on the cover? Well I always wanted the silly books because I didn’t care much for reading. And my mom was just ok with the fact that I wanted to read…so I’d always get the 101 jokes about pets..bugs…siblings..etc. I guess these two were the only ones to survive. I’d also get those random creepy books about skulls and mummies and magic. Too much exposure to R.L. Stine, power rangers and sailor moon.
I remember this author came to our elementary school in the 4th grade and the only reason I read it (and was excited about it) was because her name was Bonnie and that hawks were cool. Especially since red tailed hawks fly around pq looking to eat the “scary things” in our canyon.
Psssssh. So much for that.
Annd I hope that made up for yesterday. I’ve been working what seems like endless 12hr days anyways so not too much outside of work.
Objective: 365 picture project. Attempt at blogging again.
Goal: a more definitive idea for the future to come. Therapy thru words. History of reflections.
Maskells came to visit Cali for Christmas for the first time in years in December. Usually it’s Christmas in January..which isn’t always so bad. Easier on the gift buying when good deals come around. Kicking myself for not settling on doing secret santa this year with our expanding family .. argh!
Overall the end of 2011 and beginning of 2012 has been spent with mostly family, the chunks (edwin) and ninjah. Feels like its been the same story, different year. Here’s to new beginnings of hopes/desires and endings to bitter, nostalgic, non-progressive things.
I’m looking through some of my old pictures from last year & I had a pretty good time. One year ago I was hanging out with some of my HS besties .. finishing up the last year of my undergraduate career .. and made the best of it.
Now here I am chillin’ with Ninjah. I wonder what epic-ness what come out of this weekend. Happy early Birthday to Me. :]
Anyways, this is what I’m doing today! Thanks Annieman!
————————
On a side note, I want to make something crafty for some of the kids that are graduating this year. I also want to make something crafty for Tiff for her upcoming birthday. She recently passed away this year and it really took a toll on me. She was always so great with the crafts when it came to making things for her fams/littles in APO. I haven’t decided what I wanted to make for her this year but I’m thinking some crafty looking roses .. but of course blinged out.
Hope you’re doing great up there champ. We miss you down here.
Hello Again!
I think Mother Nature got a hint of my mixed moods yesterday when it rained and shined throughout the day. It was kind of a bad day. Kind of a bad day where at the end of it I asked Edwin to get some major loads of fast food and I ate most of it. Bad habit of eating my emotions. 
So I’ve really been into making Ninjah wear these handkerchiefs these past couple of weeks and I don’t think she minds them at all. In fact, she might even LIKE them. Who knows. But I’ve been slowly buying more every once and a while and I think they make her look pretty badass.
At least I’m not into other crazy dog things like dressing her up as different animals everyday. That’s only once a year.
Alright, so let’s see what else is going on my life. I’m still working at that bank as a supervisor. “Eh” sums it up. Still with the Korexican. Hmm. I work in Newport Beach now where the morning highlights of my day is getting to see the beautiful beach as the sun rises but, the last time I was at the beach was probably half a year ago.
I graduated UCI with a bachelor’s degree about 7 months ago and I guess some could say that I have nothing to show good use of it so far. But that would only be some.
I’m stuck between that stupid rock and annoying hard place of what to do with my life. A friend of mine just asked me recently, “Hey, I thought you were going to travel the world by now.” Hey, me too. Seems like the benjamins are a little hard to roll in nowadays when you’ve become Jane Schmane. I wonder if that’s somebody’s real name.
Alright. Have to go get ready for work now …
I guess to be more optimistic about life I’m still in tact and my doctor doesn’t think anything is wrong with me. I’ve got eyes to see the people I love and ears to hear what’s left of good music. My heart still goes out to those in Japan & Yemen who have to do what they need to do to get by.
An old one but still a good one.
