| wow, xanga got really spiffy...given i havent been on here for a year or so. lets see, what have i been up to? school, thesis, internship, editor, graduation (with honors, so suck it), philippines, travelling, unemployed, prospective grad student...thats life in a several words.
so what occupies my world these days? mostly television and sitting at home facebooking.
the most wonderful thing about not being in school is that i get to write whatever i want now. i havent been able to do that since ive been stuck writing the difference and similarities of postmodernist and modernist american literature, subversion of fairy tales, and imperialistic notions in 19th century victorian adventure novels. not that i dont like writing about that stuff. the downside is that there's little room (notice i didnt say "no") for creative imput.
i dont want to brag that im writing creatively or writing prospective novels because i find that pretentious. but i think i just did anyway...writers have to write, right? pun totally intended.
a couple of days ago, i was looking at the word "gross" and wondered for fifteen minutes if i spelt it wrong. now i really know i have done nothing for far too long.

| i was recently reminded of how old i am. i dont know how to interact with people who are 18 yrs old! thats not very far from my age, and i dont know why! its weird...and also, i dont know how i got so involved in school. i used to be one of those kids who made fun of people in college who are into like clubs and stuff, and now im actually finding myself at the other side. poo...i feel soo...so adult, and theres only one person i have to blame for it.
im suppose to feel really really great right now since im almost finished with school and stuff. it has yet to kick in. not that i dont want it to be over. i guess ive just been building up this moment since i was a freshman and now that its here, its like...hmm...its really almost over?
on another note, i took out my guitar out of its dusty case for the first time in a gazillion years. i still have to tune it, so if anyone willing to take up that task, i'll be happy to give you it.

| umm...i had a really awkward moment with xanga. i dont know what new thing i signed up for, but i did and now i feel somewhat violated.
anyway, i think its that time of the semester where i feel completely restless and stuck in a rut so i naturally plan out a day-off. last friday i just realized how much i missed hanging out with the four coolest, most awesomest people in the entire universe! i dont think i laughed that hard in a loooooong time, which is saying something since im always stuck with editing and school work. blargh. its times like those when i realize who my real friends are. heh. anyway im getting all sentimental.
manoa journal is the most awesomest work ive ever gotten...and i dont even get paid! LOL! i dunno, its just so much fun. the workload is fun, the people are just the nicest. if only i can stay with them after this semester finishes. maybe i can convince them to let me volunteer for the summer while i find another job that pays. heh.
i seriously want to have a turtle race!
till next!

| Ok, so I'm sitting on my desk at Manoa Journal right now...all alone...so why not make an entry! for the past three weeks now, ive been interning at Manoa Journal. i know, right? Hard job, no pay. heh. but ive been liking it so far. editing, proofreading, doing errands. that IS the life!  im pretty optimistic about this year. sort of. its a scary year, but a good year. to think that by the end of this year, ill be graduating (hopefully)! scary shits man.
what is manoa journal? well, its a journal publication that features creative writing--poetry, fiction, memoirs, etc. its pretty hardcore stuff. theyre pretty prestigious.
im having fun being on my own again. things has kept me alot busy, so i dont really have time to hang out. which is nice since i dont feel like hanging out anyway. just flowing, going back to that natural order of things (pre-2007 days).
ill put up pictures latahs, im suppose to be editing right now.
till next!
