august 22, 2006

i'm back.
my "vacation" is over and i'm back at school doing the same ol thing.
i just finished reading ched's blog.
what a sucker... she gotta a cubicle job.
just like her older brah-dah and older sisters...
she's commuting to the city, just like i used to.
good ol bart.
ched, that job sounds so crappy.
if i wasn't your sister i'd laugh in your face...
noooooo... since i am your sister, i'll laugh in your face!!!
puahahahahahahahaha!!!
it's strange how the cubicle sucks the life out of every single person.
i didn't decorate my cube either.
all i had was a calendar with all the vacation days and my quitting day highlighted and circled.
my job was pretty cool though...
you know the "lounge" that has all the cool sofas and games and crap for the workers to enjoy during their break time, but never actually gets used except for meetings because you'll look like a slacker if you're in there for any other reason?
every office has one.
anyways, i took full advantage of it one day.
a couple coworkers and i went in there and spent a good hour playing video games and board games...
plus, it had glass walls, so it's not like we could just sneak in there.
All the other people in the office would stop for a couple minutes and glare at us with envy.

it's funny...
right now, my brother and sisters are all "american dream"-y.
they're like, "i wanna become a lawyer" or "i'm gonna be a doctor" and crap.
you know, to makes loads of cash...
but, who's the smart money maker?
me, jane "the non-lawyer/doctor money machine" chang.

see, here's how i figure...
Eugene + working as an intern + minimum wage + loans = broke and stressed out
Jamie + phd school = broke and stressed out
Cheddie + crappy cubicle job at law firm = broke and stressed out

Now, let's take a look at me...
Jane + no dreams of becoming a lawyer or a doctor + "teaching" jobs = money in the pocket and
vacation for about a 1/4 of the year.

hmmm... now, who wants to rethink their career goals?
what?
what's that now?
you'd rather work crazy long hours and have a "jd" or "phd" attached to your name instead of a "ms" or "mr?"
well, alright then.

but, please don't forget that when all your loans have been paid and you're all ballers and you all have families to support, that you'll always have a crazy sister who'll come to your homes like a thief in the night and leave with pockets full of your finest jewelry.
see, unlike you doctors and lawyers, it's not below me to steal from my own family.
i'm still "down" and "with it."
i'll still remember that i came from daly city.
Puhahahahahahahaha.
i kill myself.

well, moving on...
i packed up most of my belongings yesterday.
i still don't feel like i'm leaving, which is the reason why i'm not so sad, but it'll be a different story when i'm aboard the plane.
i'm planning on staying up all night friday, then popping them dramamines (original) in my mouth like mnm's.
that way, i'll be fast alseep until i land and i'll have enough engery for the jin wedding.

so, what have i learned from my year away from home?
i learned that mosquitoes can fly under your blanket and bite you... 3 times... so you might as well kick the blanket off and enjoy the aircon.

have you missed me?????????????????

hello, all!
it's been a long time since i've contacted any of you...
and, i don't want to write out a bunch of emails, so this will be it.
i've been pretty busy over here with english camps and crap.
all the kids are on summer vacation, so my schedule has really freed up.
i only teach from 9-12...
so, i get in at 9 and check out at 12.
that means, i leave no time for myself to use the computer.
i'm in and out...
none of you will be hearing from me much for the remainder of my stay for this reason.
i do check my emails occasionally, but, i hardly respond for lack of time.
so, write if you want, but don't expect a quick response.
i'm fine and i'll try to send out emails when i can.
