Yup!

So the other day, the future psychologists MyTu & Maipie talked to me about life, love, etc etc. It's always interesting listening to what they have to say, even if I disagree sometimes. I really do appreciate that they took their time to talk to me and I just wanted to say that I do take in what you both say. However, I've always been the one where if I'm adamant on something and I really want do it, I do eventually end up doing it. It usually makes me want to do it more when people are against it. It's the rebel side of me, what can I say. The issue here was that I wanted to get my nape pierced. Why? Just because I was bored and wanted something new and fun in my life.

So I hear all this backlash but honestly, to me, piercings aren't forever unlike tattoos. I can take them out whenever. Sure scars might last awhile but that's what Mederma's for lol.

But anyhoo, my point here is to do what makes you happy. Just do it, right? What you guys always hear me say haha. Piercing myself wasn't a way to hurt myself, like those who cut themselves do. I just felt like doing it so I did it. Any repercussions, I'll deal with later.

That moves me on to another point. MyTu & Maipie figured out that MyTu lives in the past, I live in the present, and Maipie lives in the future. We all need to find a balance between the three. Yeah, I guess I need to think of the future more. And it's always good to learn from your past but move on. And the present, well, I like living in the present. Who knows if you'll have a tomorrow.

But you're right Mai. Change for the better is always good and I definitely need to do start focusing on myself and how to better myself. Like you said, "What it really takes though, is a little reflection, a little self-realization, and a lot of effort. "

Anyway, I look forward to future talks. And keep blogging guys! I enjoyed going on Xanga to see all these new blogs Have a greeeeat week guys!

So the other day at work, I was talking to Ben about how intimidating our boss Tran is and how I wanted to ask him for more hours but I was too afraid haha. Tran was standing nearby and I didn't think he heard but later, as I walk past him in the office, he smiles and asks me if I had to ask him anything. I was like, "Idk, do I?" and he was like, "Idk, do you?" Then later he asks if we're afraid to talk to him and I just told him, "Yeah, you're kinda scary." But he's a cool guy and throughout the convo he was all sweet to me. I did ask for more hours and he said he'll see what he can do.

So today, they called me in to work even though I wasn't scheduled. Tran hooked it up with more hours. I really seriously enjoy working at Denny's, even when it's fast paced. It's more exciting that way. The other day I actually took orders and made $11 tip! Today, this nice elderly gentleman told me I was a very nice person and he appreciated my work. Then another kind lady tipped me a dollar even though I just rang her up. Lots of customers that know I'm new have been very encouraging as well.Then to top it all off, at the end of the day, Tran came up to me and said, "I have to tell you something." I was kind of nervous because I thought he was just going to criticize me on something but instead he says, "Everyone here likes you. Okay you're off. I'll see you Thursday." Aw....

I guess that was the plus side of my day. Of course you always have to take the good with the bad.

"Do you hate me?" "No I don't hate you" But I still have so much more to say.
You know those days when you just feel so lonely?
Same mistakes, over & over.
Came home to find out that Duong 5 had passed. He was my aunt's long time boyfriend. May he rest in peace. <3
Lastly, found out a friend was hospitalized. Praying that she gets better soon.

So my first couple days of work at Denny's has been good so far. I like everyone there. They're all so friendly...especially the Mexican men LOL but it's cool. My managers are cool too. Today my boss was trying to teach me how to play chess while I was on shift. Haha, chess is hard though but he'll teach me again tomorrow. I'm also working with Ben Nguyen woohoo! Always fun spending time with the "boyfriend" and now we get to work together. Yup yup, I don't get an actual schedule until my trial 2 weeks is up but when I do, I'll let you guys know so you guys can visit me hehehe. Eventually, I'll train to be a server but right now I'm still learning everything.

My Levi's interview went well too. Hopefully I get that but we'll see.

But yup, I've been feeling pretty good about myself! I'm employed, been going to the gym, haven't been under the influence of anything in awhile, and I'm doing pretty good academically! I just need to keep it up.

Clickkkk!

Yeah, just sharing that with y'all Enjoy your meal. Valid on Feb 3rd only!
