about

I'm a full-time university student/part-time sales associate. I'm as different as they come but just like everyone else all at the same time. I'm big into movies 'n music, and definitely love to laugh. I wish that I could see my family more often, but I have a pretty rockin' roommate who keeps me entertained. I live a busy but simple life, and for the most part love ever minute of it.

and you Sunday, July 30, 2006 |

turned my world upside down. And I love it. You have more faith in me than anyone (outside of family) ever has. You see amazing things in me. Things I can't seem to see in myself. You have hope for me, where I have little to none. Everytime our eyes meet, I feel that spark inside me grow. I feel alive. You, sweets, are worth waiting for. And I'm right here waiting.

EDIT 02-25-07: This entry was written when was I smitten. With a particular girl. A situation I'd really like to just forget. So, feel free to disregard this. I know I have.

Wow. That was the longest day I've had in a while. I'm so tired of people undermining me, leaving me out-of-the-loop, and just plain forgetting about me. As much as I like my job, I have to say its really emotionally taxing to be given the responsibilities of a supervisor but none of the respect. The other team members are great, but damn, the rest of the management team are so far above me in the realm of things it leaves my position ('supervisor'), just that, a position. Maybe I am over-reacting, maybe not.

What I know is now. And now doesn't feel so good.

mood: anxious, depressed
music: Incubus - "I Miss You"

into dust Wednesday, July 19, 2006 |

crash and burn. thats the only why I can describe it. i've worked so hard these last few months to improve myself and grasp the inner self-confidence that has eluded me for as long as i can remember. and now, fuck. i cannot stand myself. my skin crawls. i'm completely exhausted. what brought about this horrid state of mind, you ask? losing my $300 cell phone, after have it for exactly two months. i now have no phone at all, which is worse, in my mind than having lost my phone to begin with. a man without a phone, of one form or another, is the lowest of the low. and now that man is me. fantastic.

it gets better, too. a replacement phone will cost me no less than one hundred dollars.

fuck that.

mood: pessimistic, angry
music: Nickelback, 'Too Bad'
