Week Zero

Sunday, September 21st, 2008

Hiya everyone,

Can you believe that school is starting this Thursday? And, technically, this week is called “week zero” which is full of events and activities for new incoming students as well as returning students. It’s crazy.

On September 14th, I left my first job. I felt really sad doing it since I had been there for a year and some months. I guess I got attached to it even though I remembered I really disliked the people and the job itself. But, somehow it grew on me and I couldn’t see myself leave. But, I had to because I was planning on finding a job near UCLA (or in UCLA) and I would be living there and did not want to commute back and forth. But, I did promise I’d visit.

Another bit of sad news is my laptop went weird/crazy to the point it wouldn’t work anymore. Whenever the laptop would go to sleep, it would not wake up. It would light up but the screen would continue to be blank (dark). Anything I pressed would not wake it up. Then, when I forced it to shut down (after many tries trying to wake it up), I would start it back up but the screen would still be blank. You can hear it start up with the Windows music and everything, but the screen would stay blank. Unfortunately, I had to take it a Toshiba repairs shop and it’s been two days now. I miss it.

On my job hunt, I’ve emailed plently of people asking to apply for the position. I did get some replies back asking for resumes but, after that I haven’t got much back. I wish my resume would look better. I don’t have much skills or experience — especially since the jobs I applied for are mostly office jobs and they would want people with experience with office.. Well, I had an interview but I don’t think I got the job. I really hope I can get a job soon. I would hate to have to work in the restaurant business again — I’d like to gain experience with the office…

It’s September!

Monday, September 1st, 2008

Hiya everyone,

I can’t believe it’s already September. Happy Labor Day? The summer went by so fast. School starts on September 25th and I am nervous. I have my classes all set. I only have three classes, most in the morning and afternoon. Hopefully I will a job around UCLA since I will be quitting the one I have right now [since it's not really close to UCLA]. I have applied online to several places and await for their responses. I am nervous.

Lets see, I have classes from Monday to Friday. However, on Mondays and Wednesdays, I get out really early - at 8:50AM. Tuesday will be longest day, from around 9:30 AM to 1:30 PM, of course with some breaks in between. Thursday, I will be from 9:30 to 12PM. And, lastly, Friday would be from 8 AM to 10:30AM. XD Not bad… although I do have a super early class — but I really don’t mind.

Well, I haven’t really done much. I have been addicted to this Nintendo DS game, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. Those familiar with the game know that there are 3 series of Phoenix Wright. I have finished the first two, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney and Phoenix Wright: Justice for All. I am currently on the last case for Phoenix Wright Trials and Tribulations. I am addicted. XD I even made a layout that I haven’t posted on Captured Fragments yet… but feel free to take a look, objection!

Also, my sisters play the game as well. And, whenever we get into like an argument of one doing something wrong. We would go into “Phoenix Wright mode” and be all, “Objection!” with whatever we say. Usually I end up losing xD!

Lastly, I’d like to plug in this song that I am addicted to listening to. If you are into Korean (pop) music or want to listen to something new or want to bop your head to an awesome song, then please watch or listen to ShiNee’s You’re Like Oxygen

Alright, I think that’s it for now. Thanks for the awesome comments [from July -- I skipped a month of blogging xD] vero, Cat, Hoshiakari, and Tammy!
