ladies and gentlemen (and everyone else whom i have failed to mention), i have a confession to make.
for the past three years, i have been thinking in terms of technospeak.
so what is technospeak? other than being a term i just made up on the spot, it refers to the condition where one goes through life thinking about how everything they’re doing offline will soon be published online. i’m talking about going to a picnic, and coming home and immediately logging onto facebook and writing, “GL had fun at the picnic! :)” i’m talking about going shopping, bringing a camera along, photoshopping the pictures to no end when you get back, and posting the pictures under your myspace about me, along with this caption: “hi my name is GL :D i ♥ shopping + friends + hugs!!! i <3 hatuhzzz ;) talk to me♥” i’m talking about recording videos of every. single. fucking. action. you perform in your life, and posting them on youtube. i’m talking about living a real life so you have something to show off in your virtual one.
now why in the world am i talking about this? i’ll give you two reasons. one, i caught myself doing this today while making pasta for my brothers. i was literally seething because i really didn’t want to do it, so my mind drifted to how i’d be blogging about this as soon as i got on the computer (i didn’t. i was too lazy to, unless this counts.) in the middle of forming the sentence “I just don’t understand why they can’t get their own lunches,” I realized what I was doing. And then that made me feel like I had no life. Well actually I don’t, but that’s beside the point.

A Good Lesson

Hi! Let’s go wayy back a few weeks– I have an important lesson to share with those who actually read this ^^; So…couple weeks ago, I biked to Santana Row and saw fliers for a Fall fashion show. I left some contact info at the concierge, but didn’t get any messages. The next week, I biked there yet again, and a different concierge lady gave me the number to Federal Realty, which I called and left a message with my contact info. Nobody replied. So, finally I got kind of fed up and bike there again, and went up to visit the Federal Realty office. I left my email and number and hoped that I would get a reply.

I did. :) So these past three days I’ve helped out with setting up at the Westgate back to school fashion show (today), and met some wonderful and interesting people :D Althought it definately is a ton of work, I really hope I’ll be a part of the Santana show as well.

Anyways, the lesson being that– perseverance really does pay off sometimes. Which leads me to my next before-school-starts dilemma::
Do I want to play water polo this year?

If I do, it would mean a lack of motivation to do anything else, including school work, which equals poor grades. If I do, it would mean a LOT less work time, and slower promotion. If I do, it would also mean I get to play another season with awesome girls and get exercise.
However…
If I don’t, I would probably have more time to study and hopefully not fail first semester. If I don’t, it would mean I would still have a couple days of work which would lead to cashier faster (hopefully). If I don’t, I’ll probably get less exercise but also eat normal because I’m not working that hard.

So, that is my dilemma. Tiff says I should just do Hell week and the first week of school, and then decide if I want to do it. Good idea. So far I’m leaning towards the ‘no’, but haven’t had the courage to tell anyone on the team yet @__@;

Anyways…onto more happier subjects. I finished Omnivore’s Dilemma! :D Finally, heehee :) I felt very accomplished . Also, I got…3 tanktops and a skirt from PacSun for $27. I win! Hahahah. Haven’t gotten such a good deal in the U.S. in…a long time~ :3

So all in all a happy day. Now to a boyscout BBQ…going to mooch off their food, yeah? :P

I miss people :[

End of Summer Dread

So…I’m hella doubting my decisions about asking for BC and APCS. I kind of hope they don’t give me APCS. Then I don’t have to study for it :x

ack. my eye is itchy D:<

Goodnight
