I am happy. :D

I'm here in Brooklyn right now. Remember the Honda auto mall I was writing about last time? Well, they hired me! *Celebrate good times, c'mon!* I'm training as a cashier. (Ugh, I hate the way it looks in writing.) It's not that hard, but the pay is good. :D You know, enough to buy you the things you want like clothes, food, cellphone, laptop, ipod... I'm kidding. It pays enough that you can get what you need.

So ayun. The people here are so nice. They make you feel so welcome. :D Especially the big guys like the human resources person, the head accountant... those guys. Mabait sila. My theory is that they treat their people good coz they handle big money... you get it.

*sigh* That's one thing off of my things to do before I die list. :D
Get a job.

So... nagalit yung pinsan ni Benjie sa'kin nung isang araw! I was out for a jog and he was there and he came up to me and talked shit. It's okay. I mean... I'd be upset if the same thing happened to my cousin so I kinda understand. Natamaan lang ako when he said You lead him on. Maybe I did... My bad. :(

It's the end. "Every song has to end, but that's no reason not to enjoy it."

And the song has been great. The food was great. The talking was great. The company was fabulous. But now it's over, and maybe it's for the best.

So what was it? You might think I'm silly pero this is what did it:

Hey Mami, you be looking good.

So, minus the syntax error and the underlying message, the line is empty. And I don't want to hear that line again ever in my life. Of course I could have just told him. He'd listen. But. Uh. No way. I. Uh. He's just not the one.

Maybe... maybe the one for me was... hiding. Waiting for the right time to pounce. And I have the feeling... that my predator already has... :D

Right now, I'm having coffee. And it's my way of making up for my laziness to make breakfast, and make lunch, and/or to buy something ready to it from the store.

I just started making my resume, for the nth time, and it's very, very frustrating. Maybe if I weren't having coffee right now, I'd be grumpy as hell. LOL. Anyway, I didn't really want to make one, until I realized that I'm not getting any closer to my goal of a job without that resume. Might as well make one.

It is exactly four months before my birthday. Woohoo! I'm excited, I think. So... what do I want for my birthday? I want to go home. Or I could do with a laptop. :D But really, I just want to go home and see my friends. Then again, after I read how my friend feels after she went home and saw our friends, I don't think I want to go home. Sasalingin ko lang ang sarili ko. Instead of allowing me to heal, right? Right. Right? I don't know...

I miss talking to people. Smart people. The only smart person here is my aunt who lives next door to us, and she's busy with her kids, seeing as they're on Easter holiday and all. So, I have resorted to self-talk. I am having heated philosophical discussions with myself. How attractive, *mark sarcasm* I tried talking to Benjie about something profound and you know what he said? You're so smart. I like smart. That isn't really something I want to hear. I mean, sure, I appreaciate that he thinks I'm smart, but c'mon. So... he's not really the kinda guy I'm looking for. (Geez, it took me a month to realize that he's not right for me) To be totally honest, I don't think the kind of person (notice how it's not guy or girl? LOL) I'm looking for is anywhere near me right now. Okay lang... Can't always get what you want.

Nagugutom na ako. Hapunan na dito, pero di pa ako kumakain. Andito ako sa bahay ng tita ko, nagko-computer at umiinom ng kape. Ang sarap ng kape nila eh. :P


PS Kanina, naglakad ako sa Pershing Field para maghanap ng ng eye candy. Sobrang swerte ko at may praktis ang baseball team ng local high school dito. Dameng gwapo. *sigh* I'm satisfied with that. Sana bukas, may praktis ulit sila. LOL.

Happy Easter to everyone! Wala lang. :D Fact: Did you know that the Easter holiday used to be celebrated for the goddess of the dawn? Nice.

So... in three days, we would have been here for about two months already. Yey. I think. And boo.

It's hard not having the same people to help you through everything. I mean sure, it's fabulous here and the people are nice (as long as you're nice to them) pero iba parin talaga ang Pinoy. Pinag-uusapan nga namin nung kaibigan ko, yung mga party dito, walang sinabi sa mga party sa Pinas. Diyan kasi pag sinabing party, PARTY!!! Dito. Ngek. Basta. Iba pag Pinoy.

I was talking to my friend a while ago and I told her that I'm only starting to feel homesick now. I mean, shempre, now that the initial shock is wearing off (also known as the magic is gone) *sigh* I'm realizing how much I have really lost. :(

What else? I didn't get the job I was dying to get. :( And the people at the Honda were sad for me (AW!) coz they really wanted me to get a job there. They said they would have loved to have a fresh face in the crowd. I know what they mean. :D

So ayun. Easter here is great, I think. Kasi like so many other holidays, sensationalized and commercialized dito ang Easter so you feel (or buy) the spirit. Not bad actually, especially for the kids.

work=money=social life


...must. Get. Job. *passes out*


Shout outs
Curious, dito din ang ganda ng moon... namimiss ko tuloy sha. Kilala mo na yun. :D

PamQ, when are you coming back home? Pasalubooooong. :D

I just came from an interview with Dominick Mele. Don't ask me what he does, I'm sure I won't be able to tell you. Anyway, I went to this Honda auto mall in Brooklyn and looked for a job. So far so good. Dominick said I should give him a call on Tuesday around 10am. I have to wait a week long. Oh, a slow and painful death.

Sa totoo lang nakakatakot. Kasi wala naman akong job experience dito sa States, and they WANT their employees to have experience. Tapos English yung interview, eh kinakabahan ako, so ayun. Pero sabi naman niya, he might be able to find something for me since (1) I went to and finished high school (2) I went to university, even if it's just for a semester and (3) I smile - and that's a plus. :D The receptionist, Merlene, was really nice. She told me, basically, the things that I ought to say. Stuff like I was willing to learn and be trained (which I truly am) and that I am a girl of ambition, and this might be the first step. [Know what? I think it is.]

Pray for me. I want this job. And I need it.

Kagagaling ko lang sa open house ng NJCU. Ayos naman. Nakakapagod nga lang kasi lakad ng lakad para dun sa "grand tour".

Hay. Eto nanaman ako sa depression sequence ko.

Nalulungkot ako kasi habang nag-aaply ako sa iskul na ito, naaalala ko ang UPM. Let's face it. Iba paren talaga ang UP. At sa sandaling panahong pumasok ako dun eh napamahal na ako. Ang drama ko, langya. Pero totoo.

Anyway, the week after next, I'm expected to show up at this Honda office in New York for my first ever desk job. :D It's data entry so it should be fairly easy. :D I don't know how much I'll earn per hour, but honestly, I don't really care. I just want to be able to get out of the house with a very, very good excuse. :D

The first in my must buy list is a cell phone. Go figure. :D

PS Lapit na ng birthday ko. Four months na lang. :D Wee.
