I mentioned in my quarterly favorites post that I have been using an app called OverDrive to borrow eBooks through the Hawaii State Public Library System (HSPLS). In order to borrow the eBooks you need to have a HSPLS card and you need to download the actual app to either your smartphone/tablet or computer.

And So the Adventure Begins...

Journal from TJ Maxx

Two years and some months later I have returned to what I attempt to call a blog.

In the time between, some things have changed (I am officially a college graduate) and some have stayed the same (my terrible writing skills lol).

Since late last year, specifically after I read Paris Letters, I have been thinking about what I truly want to do in life.  Unfortunately I have no answer… 

I am still interested in K-Pop, Dramas, books and makeup but I also know that my job will not be anything related to my interests.  None of the things I am interested in can get me a job.  I can’t be a makeup artist because as much as I like makeup I am terrible at it (feel free to take a look at my tutorial attempts: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8). I can’t be a writer because this blog itself just proves how terrible I am at writing (and I also lack creative story telling).  I also can’t speak, write, or read Korean so there is no way I can get a job in the K-Pop and drama industry.  I just have to accept the fact that I may not enjoy my job but need it for the salary, health insurance, retirement plan and etcetera... or not. I now realize that I am willing to try and work hard to get where I want in life. The first full time job I take on won't have to be my career. I have the power to change and work towards whatever goal I set. 

While I continue to put off the job search and think about what I want in life, I decided to restart this blog. My attempt to blog again comes from a sudden desire to share my thoughts/opinions and to record my journey as I live the life I create (or as Shannon Ables from the The Simply Luxurious Life said, be the CEO of my own life).

And so the adventure begins…

Hello 2013

Q: What is a great way to enter the New Year?

A: A new planner of course! lol

My uncle got me this planner at the calendar store while we were at Pearl Ridge shopping mall. A whole bunch of items were 50% off so this planner came out to roughly $8. Here are some additional photos of the planner:

Winter Songs

Christmas may be over but it is still winter!! Here are three of my favorite/recommended winter songs.
Enjoy ^.~

Selfish Reasons Why the World Will NOT End on December 21, 2012

Just for fun so don't get all worked up over nothing ^.~

My selfish reason why the world will not end this year: 

1. I am still in University and haven’t even began a career
2. I have yet to travel around the world
3. I have not met any of my favorite celebrities/idols
4. I am not rich and successful
5. SNSD is making their comeback in January 2013 and is supposedly pre-releasing a song tomorrow (December 21, 2012)
6. Haven’t finished watching all the dramas and movies I want to see
7. I have not been able to help those in need

Lol. But on a semi serious note, I don’t believe that people can predict the exact date (or whatnot) for when the world is supposed to end. I mean I don’t believe in fortune tellers, mind readers, etc so why believe this. Have a good day!!

Beef Broth Pescetarian

As of December 8, 2012 I have decided to begin my transition to a (what I want to consider) Pescetarian diet.

Fall 2012

Finally the semester is over!! It was very stressful -- had to get used to waking up extremely early and riding the bus (two things I will forever dislike). Now that I am on winter break I shall catch up on my Korean dramas, K-Pop, and more. I will also work on putting more attention to this blog so it doesn't become another failed project of mine ^.~ lol.

Waitlisted...

Spring 2013 registration has been completed but I am on the waitlist for Korean 202. Maybe this is a sign that I shouldn't take 18 credits... Idk but that would put me behind schedule if I decide to major in Korean ㅠ.ㅠ
