January 2003 Archives

So, I've been working beyond my normal hours this week. It's really starting to drain me, but it will be over soon. I am basically on a "There are bigwigs coming, and we gotta make everything look pretty." schedule.

Boss said I will get nice hours after the visit. Which should be around February 2nd.

Ohh, on another news, my co-worked put in her 2 weeks notice today. That's gonna be fun for my, as they will have to hire a new person to replace her, and in the meantime, I will of course work my ass off some more. Here I tought I was going to get a break *laughs.*

Ehh, life goes on.

Woohoo, Reina Baby is finally here. It's a cute baby boy. I am so happy for here. I just got back from the hospital. He was born today at 1:19 am at 4 pounds, it was a c-section birth.

I sooo tired. Sunday I worked, and then went to a baby shower, and then went to the company christmas party at a bowling alley. Monday was MLK Holiday, so I didn't have school in the morning. I woke up early to drive sis, which I wasn't able to fall asleep after. So, I thought I had afternoon free, but I found out I worked, and the worst part, is that I got called in early. So, Tuesday rolls along, and I am much tired at the moment, and I need sleep, so me is gonna do so.

So, finally, I went to a gay club. It's called El Chapparal. It was fun to go there. I went with an old HS friend, and we met a whole bunch of his friends over there. The atmosphere was kewl, and the guys were quite hottielicious. I was mega shy, so ended up not dancing. I will next time for sure.

So, I was at the gym today, and I got my weight, Body Mass Index (BMI) and body water content measured. I found out that I weight 206 pounds, have 54% body water, and a BMI of 29. Trainer told me that I need to achieve a BMI of 13. I gotta do it through strenght training mainly, then through cardio, and I can't forget to adjust my diet. Also, she was telling me that I have a small body frame, and that is the reason my 60 pounds of fat don't really show. I thank genetics for that one.

So, I gotta get working right away on achieving my goals. I can't miss workout sessions or anything such, as it will mess up my goal attainment rate.

I will deal with it, and I will come out on top!!!

Ok, so on friday I got a gym membership at LA Fitness. I am all for some exercising, also, there's the fact that when I weighed myself fully clothed, and got the measurement of 200 pounds. tsk tsk tsk on my part, let myself go eh? Ehh, I gained a bit o'weight. I used to weight arond 185. It's noticeable, and at the same time not noticeable. I notice it, most other people don't, *grins*

Regardless, I need to drop some pounds (or gain muscle and keep the same weigh, since muscle weighs twice as much as fat.) Ehh, I want to weigh something like 165 pounds.

Ehh, that be all, I gotta log in here more when I want to write something, because I always miss writing the stuff I actually want to.

Ok, so I had a second round of the teachers, and they are pretty kewl. The speach teacher, which I was iffy about turned out to be a nice teachers, so I am definetly happy.

So I am done shelling out mad amounts of money on books. I am happy with my teachers, except for my speech one, which I will have to get used to. Most of my classmates are new, but in every class, there are 2 or 3 people I know. I happen to have a class with my tall cousin. That's gonna prove to be interesting, since my side, and his side of the family don't ever agree, and highly dislike each other. I'm gonna have to be on guard on what I say around him. Everything will have to be strictly about class, and no more.

I remember High School, (circa 1999.) I had a bunch of friends, mostly none outside of school. I lived to far away back then to actually envite someone over, and besides, I could not drive. Time went by, and I lost contact with those few friends. Yeah, I bumped into them one place or another, but it was just hey, how are things, and never again I saw them.

College is new, and it's fresh. I start my second semester on Monday. I got my classes arranged in a way that I leave friday at 10:50 instead of 11:50. That gives me time to do stuff, and go places.

I have yet to make a friend in college. Sure, I know them in class, but that's about it. I've talked to some outside of class, and they are pretty kewl people, but still not friend friends. Mind you, I am going into this rant, as I just finished watching "The Broken Hearts Club: A Romantic Comedy." Quick synopsys to support my point: 6 gay friends, hanging out together, going through the trials and tribulations of life, and yadda yadda yadda.

So, I would like some people to hang out with, some people I can joke around and have fun. Yeah, I have my sister's friends, which are well, her friends. They are kewl and all, we do go places, but they are not my people. I do wonder who my theoretical "people" are. I am not an overall groupy person, although I do a swell job at blending in. Well, more like being disolved against the tumult of people.

In high school, I had a bunch of oddball friends. Most of them international, but with some locals. I helped out, plenty of international people in school, but as soon as their english got to a point, I never really saw them again. Left me feeling like a teacher, not a friend.

Thing about journal entries, is that you never go where they are going, and all of a sudden, you are derailed, and clueless on a pile of ruble. I'm clueless about friends, and that isn't a big deal.

One doesn't pick friends; Friends just happen.

Yeah, I've been over this before, and again, but the issue is still at hand. While I am not overweight, or fat, by definition, I could afford to lose a few pounds here and there. Well, more like a bit of belly, and a side of love handles, to be exact. It's true that most people are not happy with the way the look, but then again, sometimes it wouldn't be bad to take care of oneself. As long as one is doing whatever they are doing for themselves, then that's no biggie.

I need to get my patukus to a gym. Since I now have a bit more free time after school, I might go work out over there. Then again, I might just get a YMCA membership, which is 12 minutes away, which would make it easier on days I don't have school. I got to at least start somewhere. Just planning and planning, gets me no farther then a piece of paper.

Tomorrow sounds like a good day to go to the Y, and I am going to do it (today technically)

Yeesh, school starts on monday. New classes, some new teachers, and schoolmates, and classrooms. Ehh, it's a new semester. There is going to be studying, and tests, and reading, and writing essays. Well, that's school, and at the end of it, I get a nice piece of paper that says I am rule the world, or something like that.

Anywho, I don't really mind the whole school experience, it's fun. Too bad the books are expensive as can be. I'll have to wait for the refund check to buy them this year.

Mouth sores are evil, darn glass wall, and slamming into it. I don't mind them that much except for the part it hurts when I eat food, and when I smile. *mild non lip-streching grin*

Bleah...

That's what my face sounded like smashing against the big glass wall.

Ehh, here's how the story goes...

It was lunch time, and Diana, at work, asked me to get some chinese from the mall. "Sure, why now," said I. After getting myself some KFC, I drove to the mall. I parked my car, and saw the first set of entrance doors were wide open. I thought to myself "Hey, kewl, I don't have to worry about opening it." It was cold, and the metal shocks ya. So, I passed the first set of doors, and saw an opening on the far left. So, I just walked there. In the Big Transparent Glass opening. *Splat!* My face, along with my body hit the wall. I still got the wonderfully cut lip and bump on the head.

Yeah, I feel ever so intelligent today.

Splaty new year everybody. *grins*

Woohoo... New year, umm, yeah.

Ok, now I go to sleep.
