    one is the loneliest number...

    Sitting alone in a state where i know no one is making me a little lonely tonight. i feel like an emotional train wreck, i never know what kind of mood i'm going to be in. sometimes i'm enjoying it here and other times i wish i was back in Norman. I know that moving away and starting a job is part of "growing up" but it is a lot more than that i feel. i don't think parents prepare children for the emotional effects of moving and growing up. it seems like moving away to college is the first step and parents cry and its exciting to be away from your parents when you're 18, but after the 4+ years of being at college you are then expected to pick up and move after graduation to get a job that you have worked for. but thats no big deal, there are no tears, there is no excitement. you develop and grow friendships in high school, then move away, some you keep and some linger away. you make friends in college, then move away, will some stay? Nights like this it makes me feel like they are all lingering away. all i have is the internet and a cell phone to keep in touch with people. but how much can you say on the phone and show on the internet?

    tax day update

    its been awhile...today is officially tax day and i officially filed my taxes 4mins ago at exactly 11:05pm, with plenty of time to spare, a full 55min!

    since my last update i have started work at the largest tanning salon in the country. i am enjoying it to some degree, my third day of working i received a $1 raise. however the fourth day drama and gossip flooded the two stores i am working at. that day was a really hard for me. things seemed to have gotten better for the time being. i had another interview this past week with a company who is opening a new store next month, they will be making decision on Monday so we will see if they offer me a position. honestly, i am hoping to working both jobs for a little while.

    okay, enough about work...also since i last updated we celebrated Hai's birthday. it was a pretty lazy chill day, but one he said he wanted. the day started with the two of us going fishing. yes, fishing. it was what hai wanted to do, and i thought since we now live in texas, i might as well as act like a texan. the only fish caught that day was caught by me! (pic to come!) after fishing hai took a nap on the couch and then it was off to dinner with hai's family. we went to a sushi buffet, it wasn't really my thing, but hai loved it and it was his day. i hope what he says is true and that he had a great 24th birthday.

    this past weekend sean and marcus came for a visit. friday we met up with bryan and brittani for dinner at fridays and then all played super smash brothers and tennis on the wii. it was great seeing everyone from norman and having friends over. i tagged along with the guys on saturday when they went fishing. that night sean, marcus and hai went out and i went to bed. they went to see what the night life in denton was all about.

    its getting late, time to make hai's lunch! good night!

    i have a job! and soo much more!

    well kids, i've done it! i nailed a job interview and was offered a position immediately. problem is i still have two interviews this week with potentially better jobs, so how do you accept a job but allow them not to start you for another week?? easy! play the "i-just-moved-and-am-still-getting-settled" so we'll see i may be starting a job next week that is very similar to what i just left, or could have taken a drug test today for no reason!

    since I have no job and nothing to do, i've taken up a new hobby. now i know you're asking yourself "what could it be?" tap dancing? belly dancing? gardener? no no....cupcake decorating! jealous? you should be. you can check some of them out at www.flickr.com/kellyballs
    i'm still trying to figure out what theme cupcakes i should make for hai's birthday (which is sunday) so any ideas would be greatly appreciated. and by the way, hai is the cupcake person, not me, i would rather have brownies. but its a good thing because i don't really eat cupcakes so i'm not going to become the fat kid, hai is!

    Remember Me?
    By Sophie Kinsella

    I cried yesterday. twice to be exact. once while the guy installing our satellite was here, he probably thinks i'm crazy. i was doing dishes, got frustrated, starting crying and ran into the bathroom. the second was to hai, it needed to be done, i feel better. it had been awhile since i cried. i needed him to realize all that i had done for him when i moved here. i don't know why but it makes me feel better when he recognizes all that i did leave to come here. and its not that i'm completely unhappy, i am with the person i love. just frustrated sometimes.

    so after our conversation, hai and i both turned to watch our new satellite. but it opted not to work. something is wrong with the hdmi cable Direct TV left us, so we had to hook it up component style. so we finally got it working. i was amazed at how many channels we got. Hai was amazed at the blue lights. it takes soo little to make it happy, i love it! but i don't understand why we are paying a satellite bill each month if i could have just bought him something flashy, that lights up blue. one of lifes little wonders i guess!
    which reminds me, for hais birthday last year i had asked one of his friends for advise/suggestions and he told me to get "something flashy, lights up blue and possibly makes a sounds" wow, he was right! thanks, adam!

    well i'm off to start my weekend, hai is already home. he arrived at 6am, stating that his hands hurt too much to work anymore. we are currently fighting a problem with the skin on his hands, it seems to not want to be on his body anymore and is pealing off at an impressive rate. we have a dermatologist appt on tues so hopefully all will be better soon!
    we're going to a hockey game tonight, not really sure where or who is playing. it's for my sister-on-laws brother who is trying to get this team to hire him for there PR. again, i'm not really sure...

  • I am currently sitting on my cozy balcony, enjoying the weather and the company of my bichon, Sacha. I am also staring at the most despised flag in the country, the texas flag...hung at the same height as the American flag, like the two are equal or something. How did i end up here?

    It will be officially two weeks on Saturday. I still have no job and no friends. Also, the sight of Hai is getting on my nerves. I think i need a job to continue my love for him. I didn't go to an interview today. I just couldn't. I knew they would offer me a job and i would have to take it because i have nothing else but i would hate it. i just couldn't bring myself to work in a place that i hate going into regularly. There are a few prospective jobs still out there and will hopefully have something by the end of next week.

    People call to check on my and ask me about living in Texas, its sweet but also very hard to answer. Its always the same questions with the same responses:
    Hows Texas?
    its fine
    hows the job search?
    eh, alright
    sounds like you're unhappy
    no, i'm fine
    so what else is new?
    nothing, i've been to the gym everyday
    well thats exciting, way to go
    thanks, i only go to watch TV since i don't have it here
    ohh, well at least you're just sitting around all day
    yeah, i get bored of doing nothing after a few hours
    so, guess who i saw last night at the bar?
    oh, you went out last night?
    yeah, it was soo much fun, too bad you're in Texas otherwise you could have come!
    oh yeah, i wish i could have, i have no friends here
    oh you'll make friends...so this girl was soo drunk so we all left and went to play beerpong
    thats cool
    yeah it was really really fun, you totally missed out! well it was good talking to you, keep me updated
    okay i will
    bye
    bye

    yes, i wish i could have been there, yes it sucks that i am here! i am in fucking Texas!
    but i'll make friends, i will find a job, everything will be just fine

    i getting bored with my life, everyday i think of a new activity to do after i browse the web for an hour looking for jobs. yesterday it was to find the closest Banana Republic so but an outfit for these interviews i am going to have. so i drove around Flower Mound/Lewisville for close to an hour and never found it. i even called the store and asked where it was located and the girl couldn't tell me. so after that activity i came home, too tired to make a real dinner so we had sandwiches.
