I'm pretty content with my life right now, although I feel like I shouldnt be.
My job is pretty cool, I like spending my time with someone, and I'm slowly easing my anger problems and I'm overall a really better person than I use to be, I love it.

I'm so sick and tired of all these people in my life who I "Deal with". For clarification, those people who act a certain way or do something, and even though you don't like it, you deal with it for the sake of, I don't know.. Having them in your life? I think I've been putting my real happiness aside for temporary happiness, and having people who don't benefit me at all or truly make me happy just because I need someone to fill in an empty space. Ya dig? But I think I should save that empty space for someone who truly deserves it, not just give it out to anybody.

Other than that, I can say that practicing Buddhism is probably the only thing that has been keeping me sane for the past several months. Even though I frequently practice compassion towards other people, I'm trying to start practicing it with myself now.

at the end of the night, I just want someone to tell my day to. But that someone has been something for the past several years. I wish it could go back to being someone.
and that sentence probably only makes sense to me :]

and as I'm listening to the cure, I'm contemplating the fact that If I were born a decade or two ago, I probably wouldve been a goth haha.

when good goes bad.

I'm surrounding myself with bad influences and I fucking love it. I find it hilarious how I've managed to do pretty good academically this past semester, and with only a month left, I meet someone and go fuck everything up. I havent done homework/studied/showed up to class consistently for a couple weeks and I hate myself for it but am getting a wierd sense of pleasure from being rebelious. I suppose these things happen after sticking to the rules for so long.
and other then that,I'm completely confused on what I want to do with my life right now. Oh the pressures of being a young adult.

I am now an employee of
It's going to be a lot different from my previous retail jobs. Professional clothing, older people, commission. I'm excited.

I can't wait for Friday. Hard Festival raavveeein


On another note, I've finally broke out into the dating scene again, and I find it hilarious that 2 different guys whom I was interested in turned out to be gay/bi/dont know what they are. I just have the best luck ever.

I'm trying my best to take advantage of every day I have left here. Yesterday I took a nice drive by myself to Westwood, somewhere I've never been before, but I wanted to check out some local thrift stores that I've heard much buzz about. I got lost a million times, I got frustrated with traffic and the lack of public parking in the busy areas, and I realized how much I love living here. I can't even imagine how much different my life would be if I grew up living in some small town somewhere else in the US. I don't want to get all philosophical and whatnot, but I sometimes wonder out of all the world, why was I born next to one of the biggest cities in the world and I'm very thankful to how being here has given me so much opportunity, perspective, and knowledge. I take for granted that I'm at one of the cultural centers of the world, no where else am I going to be next to biggest variety of shopping from the best thrift stores, the designers, I'm not going to have melrose, little tokyo to buy my japanese fashion magazines, the best mexican food, the best night life, everything at the tip of my finger. I don't want to brag at all, so I'm just going to say I'll miss it a lot. Los Angeles aside, I'll miss Pasadena the most, it is probably one of the most unique cities I've ever been in. Driving from old town to the top of Lake, being from an urban area to the mountains in less than 5 minutes, driving down all those mansions on orange grove and a couple minutes later being in a notorious gang area, so many different life styles and cultures in one city, it's amazing. So I'm trying my best to take advantage of this last year I have here, it's kind of sad but I'm so excited for what lays in front of me.
In the way of academics, I've been focusing a lot on what colleges I'm applying to next month and I discovered an amazing school that I'm really interested in, Cal State Monterey Bay, It's a block away from the beach and has a good environmental science program. So I'm sure I'm going to be going there if I don't go to UCSB, UCD or UCSC or cal poly slo. I'm so impatient for March, I want to know where my future lays.
and it seems that I only feel like writing in here when I'm pretty drunk, pretty sad. I guess that's the only way I can gather my thoughts together.
