Freedom	[Mar. 16th, 2013\|11:49 am] Dribblezz
After working in a cubicle for about 5 months it bothers me knowing this isn't something I want to do. I'm settling for something mediocre. This is something I've always known and for some reason thought I would eventually accept it. School has put me in a better position but I never figured out how to work for myself. I do regret not taking that extra semester to enjoy campus life. Maybe I would have gotten more out of the experience. Ehh oh well there's a lot I need to work on. Good things come to those that take it. I should be more greatful with the things I have and embrace the changes.

Goals hmmm	[Sep. 28th, 2012\|11:39 am] Dribblezz
I realize after all these years I need to simplify them and focus on them one at a time. My first goal was to get back into shape which I have and have stayed on a steady diet. So my next goal for now is to find another job. I've been following leads and looking online constantly. I realized if I wanted a new job I'd have to take $18hr instead of the $20hr I was wanting. I don't see China as an option at the beginning of the year now. It's too much of a headache now and the not to mention the fact I could hurt my career if I moved. Besides my friends are great and I'm sure we can make something happen. We're older and smarter now. Hmm I need to go fishing and clear my thoughts.

Post Grad and 30

Life isn't great, but it's much improved. Turning 30 was awesome and I realize I can't hang like I used too. I've started hitting the gym again and running. Now, I need to start dancing and stretching so I can start teaching dance again. China is still an option but it's starting to become more trouble than it's worth. I should be getting more offers for jobs, but they keep passing me over. It's dumb because I'm not white.

Well if I get a daytime job before an offer to teach in China guess that means I'll start looking towards buying a house in the area and settling down. I have a great group of friends and if I want to disappear for awhile I can. Things can be fun in the area I'm meeting a lot of new people who live in cool places. If that job hires me and allows me to do virtual office then I may get a loft in Ellum. That would make things interesting.

I need a vacation even for only a few days.

Post Graduation

What a long month I hurt my knee at dance practice for that MIB3 flashmob. Then I get some stomach problem and find out I have high blood pressure.

I'm still miserable at work. I maybe promoted but it's a long ways away and it still keeps me on nights. Companies I'm applying at aren't hiring or aren't interested. Even though it's only been a month it feels like a since graduating.

I'm leaning towards teaching overseas again. I'm looking at Dalian which is a coastal area in China where a lot of Korean and Japanese tourist visit. The other is Chengdu which is famous for spicy foods. It's a lot to think about.

Researching stuff is time consuming. Well time to fire up this grill.

Well it feels nice to be among the elite. Now, I'm contemplating on going super elite with the Masters. Not really I think I'm done.

The real job hunt begins. I told myself I would stay till the end of the year before committing to a teaching job overseas. Right now I'm focused on paying off my loans. I should have them paid off by February.

Soooo much free time yet so many things to do...........

I don't post here much lol	[Feb. 13th, 2012\|03:33 pm] Dribblezz
School is moving along great. Senoritis is a bitch I don't wanna do shit. lol I'm actually learning a lot more technical stuff than expected in my hip hop class. I realized I didn't have much control of my moves so the class is helping me a lot with it. These simple changes make a difference. I was expecting to be humbled on timing and neatness since its routine based. It's almost like relearning a dance all over again. The hardest thing for me is timing my routine to 3min flat. It's a minor obstacle that I thought was easy. I have the vocabulary just have be more mindful of time. Work is stressful, but at least I can do my homework during downtime. I've never wanted to leave and stay at a job so bad. The growing pains are affecting me, but the challenge in making it work is motivating. I promised to stay till the end of the year or at least graduation. Still have student loans to pay off. I'm liked but I'm not sure if it's for the right reasons. My feedback is acknowledged, but my skills aren't appreciated. China is still on my mind, but the places I researched last year now require teaching assistance experience. I'm going to get more information my Linguistics professor on how to approach it. Warrior Dash I'm doing that with some co-workers in April. It's a shame I haven't started running yet. It's just too cold to run. Oh well regardless I'm still gonna do it. March is coming up so me and the roommates have decided to rent for another 6months. We were planning on looking for a new place, but I don't have the time to look and they don't want to move. It's fine in September I plan to be moving on to better things. Besides I can't be upset with paying $515-520 a month. So much more to say, but I want to take a nap before hiphop. Oh yeah one last thing it's almost seeing Jeremy Lin making his Lintroduction in the NBA as a starter. I may have to write my viral media paper on him.

Well my Tuesdays going on into Wednesdays are killing me. I'm talking to people more in school, getting that college experience. It's kind of nice. My jazz class is pretty cool I'm really digging the music. Chinese Literature is a bit of a disappointment considering it's a history class. Hip hop is OK I can see how the instructor struggles to put together a decent routine at the end of the semester. My ritual performance class is really weird lol. Not really sure how to explain it. I see myself getting As except in Chinese Lit., but I'll have to step it up in that class. It's sad the white kids are doing better than me in that class. Oh well that's what I get for having a social life.

Work is interesting just disorganized with a lot of backstabbing. Oh well I just gotta last till the summer. Then, I'll be outta here. I plan on going on some trips this year. I want to go somewhere this year, but the only place I wanna go involves a nice sunny beach.

10 year reunion	[Aug. 7th, 2011\|04:26 am] Dribblezz
Well it was interesting to say the least. There were a lot of people that didn't show, that I wanted to see. Most people don't change, and that's for sure. I showed up late and dipped early. Ten more years till the next one.

*sigh I wish people understood that concept. They would go further in life if they didn't dwell so much on the negative.

The apartment hunt begins and hopefully, we find one soon.

Work has been stressful lately, being on the phone is really annoying. Hopefully, I will be working from home by September hopefully. It takes three weeks to get the equipment. I think they are weeding the people out slowly.

Some of my friend were talking about floating the river again. That's not a bad idea it would be a cool thing to do during my birthday week.
