| I feel like higher education has drained me of my life...in order to get this higher education, I have given up about 6 years of my life and 1 more year to go...there goes the plans of marrying by 25 and having kids...
So I've decided that I don't care anymore that I've spent about...$40,000 + on my higher education. I'm getting my degree and going to do the things I want...one of which is to go live in another country. HK to be exact. No my degree won't go to waste, I hope to teach there.
I've given up on the hopes of finding a mate anytime soon...so why not do the things I've always wanted to do...travel!
I never really had much of a chance to do it when I was younger...there were so many excuses that my parents gave. I do believe that if I had been born and raised somewhere else, I would have had a better education...and be much different than I am....
I really tried to set up a 5 year plan with realistic goals I could do..but I realized it's not that easy...I got up to getting a teaching job in a public school...apply to teach in HK and graduate...but that's as far as I could go. If I teach in HK I don't know how long I'll stay even though the contract is 2 yrs...I might stay longer. Also, I don't even know if I will get a chance to teach in HK, since I think they believe white teachers will probably be better than a Chinese teacher who grew up in an English speaking country and lived there all her life.
Well that's my plan academically and career wise for the next couple of years...I can't tell what's going to happen..but this is what I hope for...

| If you are going to drive one person home you should drive everyone home! It really bothers me when someone drives another person home but not the other (in this case me).
I even asked this person if he can drive me home today, telling him which highway and which exit...and I didn't get a response...so the whole time I actually knew what was going to happen...and for most of the ride i was mad. He drove past my highway and one of the girls with us goes, "Wait, you're exit 11 and I'm 4 right?" I say, "yes..." she says, "but that highway is on the other side..." I don't think she realized what happened at that point, but I did. So when we get back to the neighborhood of the church his sister in-law goes..."Oh...you're driving E home first and then Alice?" and he says yes...and then he asks me "Where do you want me to drop you off Baypkway??" and i knew he didn't want to drive me home...so i was mad but held it in and said where ever it doesn't matter....so he drops me off at the bus stop and tells me to wait in the car...I got out and just told them to leave....
What's the point of driving me to the bus stop? I could've taken the bus from where were leaving from! Was he just trying to make himself righteous by telling me to wait in the car for the bus? I think so...I mean I understand that I live the furthest from the church, but we could've taken the other highway so that the way he dropped us off would've made more sense...So thanks! thanks for being such a gentleman and dropping me off at the bus stop instead of my home...which takes me and hour to get home from the bus stop....
If I disappear...I hope they will know that it's not because I'm selfish and want everything my way..but that I feel that there is not much point for me to be there except to take up the positions that no one really wants...and that I'm not being heard in any of the big decisions I make or the small requests I have...
It's too much for me to deal with....I feel i don't have a place...or even really belong in this place...

| Who puts a dish detergent bottle over a cockroach?!?! Since I've been living in my apartment, which i willl soon move out of since i'm transferring to another college, I've learned that my roommate does not really like to kills bugs, and who does? I've noticed that when she sees a bug she usually backs away from it or she puts something on top of it..like the dish detergent bottle! Now..I have no problem with that...but atleast like throw it in the garbage or do soemthing with it....but don't just leave it there so that when I get home and see the bottle in an odd place to pick it up and freak out because I see the cockroach quickly crawling out... So, I'm sort of glad that I'm moving out before i run out of patience and really show my true colors...b/c i'm too comfortable about her... On another note...thanks to my friend for reminding me... *His Rs drive me wild! | | |

| Omg...I decided to check my xanga yesterday...but I didn't...why? b/c xanga has to post up a stupid scary movie background!!
I have no idea what it is..but does xanga and some other sites have no consideration for the group of people who hate scary movies and get freak out by even the commercials and advertisements?
Do they really have to do that??
