Today/Yesterday a patient of mine said I "looked rough."
I don't know what to say.

Job Update!

soo...I got the job!
whoohoooo...I called back to the clinic on Monday told her what I wanted as pay.
She called back Tuesday and we negotiated...I kinda won but at this moment pretty anything is better than nothing. Today, I start at 8 AM! That's right folks...8 AM.

I have not woken up at this hour since I have moved home in September. I also don't go to sleep until 4 am. Well last night, thankfully I fell asleep before 1 am but...I woke up at 5 am and COULD NOT go back to sleep. I tossed and turned and got up and heard my mom yell for my sister to wake up for 2 hours. Well my mom didn't yell for 2 hours, just 5 minutes, but I rolled around in my bed for 2 hours, getting really frustrated that I couldn't sleep again.

I work at Hope Rehab as a Rehab Tech. Teresa, the manager/PT, plays KSBJ all day so it is sooo great! and there was this one old lady who, is really perky, started singing along with songs...sooo cute! This is nothing like working with kids. Working here is very routine, I am not a fan with routine. I like to be creative with my patients, but anyway it's a job.

And I have to say, I totally dispise driving in Houston. The clinic is about 6 miles from my house, it took me 35-40 minutes to get there today. What in the world!!! sigh...at least I don't have to show up until 9 am tomorrow, and hopefully I'll get more than 4 hours of sleep.

Now I have to do homework...I'm back to being busy...oh boy...

Why?

Why do I have such a hard time making decisions, especially over the simplest thing?
Is it a girl thing because thats what I keep hearing!

YAHOOOO =D

My first exciting news in forever!!!

So finally after all the wait, as you all know I don't wait very well at all, I got a call for my first interview for grad school! Yahooo...I wanted to jump up and down as I was on the phone, but then I couldn't write down all the info I needed. The interview is to Texas Tech, not my first choice but at this point I'm not too terribly picky. I don't know anyone out there anymore. Everyone I knew has graduated and left. But who cares bc I'm still freaking ecstatic about it. But right now, I have the dilemma of trying to find a flight out there without staying overnight and so far it looks like I'm staying overnight. Darn those cities out there! The tickets are about $180, and I'm going out to the land of oil...geez!
Now if only UTMB would call me for an interview!

So I start calling friends to let them know because I'm home by myself and need to let it ALL out. So then, I get another call...for a job interview! I have been looking and no one has been hiring or calling me back. The therapist asks if I could come in an hour...sure! I have nothing else to do =) I go in, we talk, and I find out she's a PT graduate from Tech and she knows people in the OT department! SCORE! We talk about that for a little bit and then got shown around the clinic. I think I pretty much got the job since she told me to call back Monday to tell her whether or not I want the job. I think salary is the issue since I asked for a bit more than she can give. We will see come Monday.

That night I went to Osaka for Diana's birthday and to the Lounge. First time I have been out in Houston. It was no 4th/6th street but still a lot of fun! Thanks to Jenny who kept saying lets go, lets go!!! She's fun :p

I guess I better go start out my Saturday. I need to go pick up my contacts. I am also craving DIM SUM!!!

They grow up so fast...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY 23rd ANNETTE!!!


After an AWESOME GAME and WIN at GLORYFIST (yay RED TEAM!), we went to play broomball with EPIC

A tribute to Anet...this is what happens when you make her angry!

We will be celebrating her birthday Saturday Evening...come out and play!

a lil' something

It's been awhile, hasn't it? When I first started, I didn't (and so did most people) think I would post for more than a week.
Anyway, classes have started and so has the job hunting. I'll be back soon, but here's a lil' something to hold you over.

Thanks Gary!

On-Going Celebration!

All around campus, the Drag, and the Co-op is still nuts!!! Buying shirts or anything for that matter is still crazy. I finally came out with a shirt yesterday. It's not what I wanted but it will have to do for now. I'll be back there again!

National Champions!!!

CONGRATULATIONS TEXAS LONGHORN FOOTBALL!!!

Who said we couldn't win...who had doubts (*ahem* I won't name any Texas fans either)?!?! All you ESPN commentators who kept dogging on TEXAS over and over again. We showed you tonight...SUCKERS!!! and where were you, Reggie Bush, Mr. Heisman? You did NOTHING tonight, except maybe that funky lateral! haha...if anything Lyndel White was your man tonight! but who cares because TEXAS won, we won, we won!
I started getting a headache at the end of the game because I wasn't breathing. Depriving my brain of oxygen. It was just so exciting, so awesome, so crazy, so incredible, not enough time to breathe! My heart had several missed beat during the last 3 minutes of the game. After the game, Adam, Jason, Sungjin, and I went to the drag and the Co-op. Man, was it nuts out there! Cars honking, people screaming (including me!), cops every where! I wanted to go out to 6th but that would not be a good idea. We couldn't buy shirts because there were no more sizes and the lines were forever long. No prob, I'll be back tomorrow. TEXAS is #1...hands down. I don't know if I can go to sleep tonight, the adrenaline is still going. I hope I can last at work tomorrow. I haven't worked in 4 months nor have I woken up before 8:30 am. It's going to be a long day tomorrow.

Like Kelvin said, "IT FEELS GOOD TO BE A LONGHORN!"

Say hello to Kaitlin, future Longhorn!

Good night!


TEXAS FIGHT

HOOK 'EM HORNS

TEXAS FIGHT!

I'm soo excited! I wish 7:00 would hurry and come!
On my way to Austin soon. My old boss needed help and since I have nothing else to do and need some money, I'll be working there again. I am wanted!!!
If you're there, play with me, after work of course :)

Bowls of Champions

Wow...the Orange Bowl just ended...what a game! Triple overtime before Penn State pulled out the win with a field goal. Finally someone made it :O Gosh it was a long game.

On to something that matters MOST.....





I am so nervous right now, and I want to be in Pasadena so bad...ack!
I hope the game is as exciting as the FSU/Penn State game, with a Texas win to seal it :p
I'm driving to Austin tomorrow so hopefully I'll get some sleep. I wonder if the players are as nervous as I am. I can't wait!

GO HORNS!!! HOOK 'EM

Bad Elmo, Bad Sesame Street

I have the best luck in the world...just another story about my life!
The week of Christmas I found a book for Kaitlin (Kevin and My-An's daughter, close friends of mine) about potty training since she's potty training. It's called Potty Time with Elmo, really cute book with pictures that you push that make sounds and Elmo talks. Well, I was out of Houston when I bought it and other things have happened since then (that will be my next entry), and I never got a chance to bring it to her. Good thing though (I guess this can be where my luck is actually good) because Jason sent me this link about the book: http://www.local6.com/news/5784303/detail.html (click on the video link)
After I watched it, I was like no way the book I got said that. WRONG! I should have known that the book I picked up would say that. sigh. Elmo is suppose to say "Uh-oh! Who has to go?" My copy says, "Uh-oh (giggle) who wants to die?" HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE. I even had Annette listen to it. She couldn't really make out all of what Elmo was saying, but she specifically said it had the word die in it! WOW! Seriously, what kind of sick person would do this?
The video says there have been several complaints, so they really should do a recall on these books! Back to Wal-Mart I go, and I'm going to tell them they should go through the books and pull the bad ones out or just take them all off the racks! Publication must not have paid attention, but then again, it's a bit hard to go through thousands of books to check for something you don't really know what you're checking for. I'm too tired to keep going. It has been a long day, and I have to wake up early tomorrow morning. Yay for day 2 of the new year! night.

New Year's Eve

It's been almost a week since I've posted and a crazy week it's been. There is always something going on in my life. There is so much I have to be thankful for this year! Even through the rough times I've had towards the end of this year, the good still out weighs the bad in every way. God really has been good to me no matter how far or how close I have been with Him throughout the year. I am blessed to be called His child. What are some good times that sticks out for you in 2005? I'll have to post mine up later.

Have a great New Year's Eve and please be careful whatever you are doing tonight!

25th of December

Merry Christmas everybody :D

What did everyone get? anything good?



**sorry peggy, I don't have anything good to let you know about. Nothing is happening in my part of Dallas (I'm in Coppell, anyone want to play?)! How's Taiwan?**

UT football

Who did it?!?! Who did it?!?! Starters...One on O-line, One on D-line...
Actually I don't even care who did it (but I think I know). But why, why, why do you guys have to possibly be involved in something, possibly do something, or possible start something that has led to this point? What the heck? Yes, I know nothing has been charged and these are only alleged accusations, but it can be distracting. An on going investigation doesn't help. That's all I'm saying. I'm NOT saying that they are guilty, I am just saying that this could possibly hurt us. Let us not relive the 2000 Holiday Bowl incident. Mac Brown is great and Vince can help take care of the team...lets hope so. Even if it comes to the end and we're going without them, I'm pretty sure we will win the Championship anyways, but it's always good to have the WHOLE team together.
I still *heart* Longhorn football team, no doubt about that!

almost done

All the stores were crazy today!
I wish I were done shopping because I do not want to go back to the mall for a long, long time!
I did get most presents bought and now it's really just my parents and a few here and there. I still have no idea still what to get my parents. Nothing has popped up yet, at least I still have a week? What sucks though is as I shop, there are so many other things that I want but can't have. I swear I found something in almost every store that I would love to have! Shoes shoes and more shoes!

Oh yeah, before I went shopping, I finally got my haircut, near my house. I didn't want to drive all the way to Bellaire. Nothing drastic at all, I only really wanted a trim and relayer. If I had gotten to the salon earlier, I would have gotten some color in my hair, but I lolligag. You guys probably can't even tell I got it cut. But my stylist, Liliana, laughed at me because I hadn't gotten a cut in like 8 months or possibly 9. She said it was a good thing my hair is straight so someone can't really tell how bad it looks. How sad, and I am the one that keeps herself groomed the most between the two sisters! Yes, it had been that long, but you couldnt tell because most of the time it was up in a pony tail. When you work in rehab with kids, you probably want your hair tied back anyway! I really like her, had good conversation, and she's pretty quick. I think I'll go back to her and not 9 months from now either!

On another note, I finished my class on Tuesday instead of Thursday. I really just wanted to get it over with. Took my final and got out of there! Hopefully she will be posting an A. I miraculously exceeded what I needed to get on my final to get the A. I wish grad schools would hurry up and tell me if I got in or not. Better yet I wish they would stop screwing up my stuff!

Time to wrap some presents :D

Hole

Christmas shopping has put a huge hole in my bank acct. I guess this is why I should have gotten a job instead of sitting on my rear all day long. So much for moving back home to save money...I could have at least had a job in Austin! Oh well...thankgoodness for new credit cards with 0% balance transfers and 0% til 2007.
OK...I exaggerate...my bills aren't that crazy. I know better :D I am a responsible adult :0

I guess I am going to head back out there to do some more shopping and possibly get that haircut that I've been talking about for weeks!
