The Old One

i think i should start waking up earlier and with that, go to bed earlier. ever since i've been home, i've been going to bed at around 3-4am and waking up at 12-1pm. it's not healthy, and i'm sure my family is getting annoyed by this fact.

so today, i ate my leftovers from Jack Astor's..it was still good. haha..just had to heat it up again after sticking it in the fridge. i was also planning on starting up on my DE courses. i managed to get as far as getting one textbook out of the shopping bag and opening the cover and read the preview of the first chapter. that's it. that's as far as i got.

by this time, i got hooked on reading my old blog. i started from the very beginning when i started my old blog. it's not from blogspot. anyway, just from reading the first 2 months, i noticed several things.

i blogged a lot. and by a lot i don't mean like posting long posts "like i do now" (in quotes because i still don't think it's true, it's only on occassion). i mean like..i used to have frequent 2 posts a day. but as i started to blog more, it died down.

furthermore, i had a no name policy. this meaning that i wouldn't name anyone on my blog. i would always call them "my friend" or "my roommate" or something along those lines. i would never reveal who anyone was, and they only knew who they were if they were actually in the event i was describing.

moreso, i did a lot of venting and complaining on that blog. i bitched about everything. my goodness, i got sick of myself while reading that stuff. although, i do remember going through some of the things i wrote about.

i was annoying, and maybe now i know why when ppl say that i'm annoying, i understand. i think i tried too hard to be funny. i found myself rolling my own eyes at some of the comments i made. how ridiculous is that?

that's my old blog, i hope that this one isn't the same and is better written. hopefully this blog has me opened up a little more with the things i've done, some interesting tidbits here and there, still some venting. but y'know, a more open blog, with little to hold back. hopefully some ppl who didn't know me as well before have learned a little more about me with this blog. hopefully they've gotten something out of this blog.

anyway, aside from reading my old blog, i also got a little peeved today. yes, this would be the complaining section of this post. my mom got on my nerves today about me getting a job. she was telling me to be more aggressive, but then she also said that it was my choice. well, if you're telling me to be aggressive, then you're not really giving me a choice now are you?

i dunno, i'd rather be patient and see if i hear back from the places i've applied to. it's not like they're gonna call me instantaneously. they do have other applicants to look through before making their phone calls. but it seems my family doesn't understand that.

they're always pushing me and i'm sure they do this "because they love me" (such a cliche these days). but still, don't bombard me everytime i come home from school for the summer or even Christmas when i have an extended holiday from school. it's either about getting a job, or how school is. why not ask me, how i'm doing? or what's new in your life? all i get is pressure. why do you think i barely hang around you guys anymore?

if they even say something along the lines of "i don't even know you anymore" well i have this to say. it's because you never ask about anything else in my life other than employment or academics. it seems that life is all about money and good grades. sure good grades are essential to get a good job and everything, but talk about something else y'know?

ok, end of rant.

end of entry.

peace up!
m town down
YEAH!
