Revamping this blog.

Shawty’s like a melody in my head
That I can’t keep out
Got me singin’ like
Na na na na everyday
It’s like my iPod stuck on replay, replay-ay-ay-ay

over and over and over…

I withdrew from the accounting department yesterday and switched into the computer science programming department. Hope I made the right decision. @_@

So a few months ago I finally decided that I wanna do accounting for life. I even prayed to God and asked if it is the right job for me. Well, I landed an accounting job and now I don’t know if I’m really into it or not.

The job I’m working at right now is a little tougher than other accounting jobs I’ve had. First of all, it’s because they don’t provide training, so everything I have to do I learn by myself. This is the one thing that makes me wonder whether I really like doing accounting or not. When I used to do web design/html programming, they don’t train me how to program or how to design, they just gave me some pointers and told me to do it. And it was actually very fun trying to figure out how to do it. Then, why isn’t it the same as accounting? I hate figuring out anything to do with accounting. My mom even had to come to help me on Sundays.

The reason why I was considering accounting: my mom. She’s been very influential in my life… whether it’s my major, my job, the school I go to, etc. Of course she says I can do whatever I want, except with a little bit of push here and there about certain things, like accounting. So, I guess right now I’m just a pushover who don’t really know what I wanna do. Not that I blame her for my situation. It’s just sad, cos I’m turning 23 this year. Most people that age have already figured out what they want to do, but I haven’t.

So right now, I’ve been thinking about going back into websites. Just trying to figure out whether it would be designing or programming. Tough choice. I love both. But at this point, I’m too scared to start over again. What if I actually really like accounting?

Hahaha, so I just remembered coming across something pretty funny last night when I was getting a haircut.

I went to a Korean hair salon in Temple City. I think they’re pretty good hairstylists even though I’ve only gotten a haircut there twice. So, when I walked in, there were two hairstylists, one was the owner, and I’m guessing the other one worked for her or rented a space at her salon.

So the other Korean hairstylist (who wasn’t giving me the haircut) was asking her customer to teach her English. Her customer seemed like he could speak English pretty well, because he barely had any accents. So then he started off telling a story to the hairstylist about how he spent a day with his wife and daughter. The Korean lady then asked, “is it enjoyful?” I’m guessing she meant if it was fun. (Haha fobs–not that I have something against them).  So then, the guy replied, “I enjoyed my wife. Yeah, you have to put it in past tense because it happened not now. For example, I was enjoying my daughter…”

I was like, wtf. It sounded very sexual to my ears. I didn’t realize that he was also a fob until he continued talking for another 30 minutes or so.

I came across my sister’s blog today. Very interesting. I’m trying to be a nosy older sister, but I do get curious about what she writes, especially if she has anything to say about me or my family. So far, it’s good to know that she has nothing bad to say about it.

I realized that ever since I moved out of her room in 8th grade, we kinda grew apart. I’m not talking about physically because she still does live on top of my room, but I guess emotionally and just her personality in general. I don’t exactly know what she listens to anymore, what she watches, what she does on her day off, who her friends are. And now that she’s in college, I barely see her anymore. It’s weird because I know some of my friends better than I know her.

So back to her weblog. I found out that she does go clubbing, she drinks (a lot–I think), and she does have a tattoo or two (my parents would kill her if they find out). So, yes, I am a little worried. I don’t want her to be one of those college girls gone wild. It’s not that I’ve never done any of the things she’s done (except for the tattoo), but it’s just weird seeing it coming from my sister. But then again, maybe this is because I haven’t really spent time to really get to know her. My fault.

I hope that sometime in the future I’ll be able to dedicate a little more time for my sister… and of course for my family, too.

I just realized that I haven’t spent any time on my websites lately T_T…

I re-watched all of 1 Litre of Tears a few days ago and I realized how lucky I am: I have a nice boyfriend, great friends, and a very loving & caring family… and I don’t have a deadly disease. I just have to appreciate life more. Thank God for everything. So this is the conclusion I made after watching: treat every single day as if it was your last. I think it’s true, although it is very hard to do.

And I’m also glad that I found another job. I thought I would never find another job after getting laid off the end of last year. The economy’s horrible… but if you keep trying, I guess you’ll eventually get it.

…was a very good movie. It’s worth seeing in theater (imo).

“The story of Jamal Malik, an 18 year-old orphan from the slums of Mumbai, who is about to experience the biggest day of his life. With the whole nation watching, he is just one question away from winning a staggering 20 million rupees on India’s “Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?” But when the show breaks for the night, police arrest him on suspicion of cheating; how could a street kid know so much? Desperate to prove his innocence, Jamal tells the story of his life in the slum where he and his brother grew up, of their adventures together on the road, of vicious encounters with local gangs, and of Latika, the girl he loved and lost. Each chapter of his story reveals the key to the answer to one of the game show’s questions. Each chapter of Jamal’s increasingly layered story reveals where he learned the answers to the show’s seemingly impossible quizzes. But one question remains a mystery: what is this young man with no apparent desire for riches really doing on the game show? When the new day dawns and Jamal returns to answer the final question, the Inspector and sixty million viewers are about to find out. At the heart of its storytelling lies the question of how anyone comes to know the things they know about life and love.” -Fox Searchlight Pictures

This will probably be a crappy movie, but I’m looking forward to it.

I’m kinda sad they didn’t cast Jackie Chan for Lei Wulong and Wesley Snipes for Blade… err Raven. T_T

My car got hit again. The second time this year T_T. No dents, just some scratches. Seriously, what’s wrong with LA drivers??
