Have you ever...
thought a certain person in your life would change everything you do? I never thought so, but it certainly has.

Bowling
Its has been over two years since I've bowled at Highland Lands and it is so ghettttto. The lanes are super narrow, the sitting tables are tiny, and all the bowlers bumping bodies. Oh well..at lease I was the top bowler in the last game. It felt great beating the guys!
Work was fun today, Laura and Jae hanged out with me all day at the store so time went by much quicker. They got to see all the nice, usual, and weird people I have to greet on a normal basis at the store.
So I am watching "Tool Academy" on VH1 right now and all the guys are so sore losers and players. A majority of the girls on the show are pretty but stuck with dumb guys, yet they find out about all the lies and cheating that their men do and they still give them another chance! WTF right? Stupid girls go out with stupid guys. Sorry to be so blunt but it just seems that way (from the show at least).
Okay...I'm going to bed. Good night!

Re-posting my old blog from 12-30-07
A Day Passed By
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and the never ending cycle continues. I have so many things I want to accomplish in my life before its over. Life can be taken for granted and life could be taken away before your very own eyes. A person's achievements can be a step closer by setting a goal. My goals in life was to finish high school and to graduate from college. So, I did that, whats next in life? To get married and have kids? Its kind of hard when I don't even have a boyfriend to began with. Lets see what my goals are in life.

4. To lose 30 pounds
5. Call a taxi to take me to downtown and get shit-faced by myself
6. Be able to take care of my entire family financially
7. Buy a M3 BMW or 7 Series
8. Be a great parent and wifey

33. Learn how to sew
34. Go back to Vietnam and build a elementary school for kids who can not afford an education
25. To write and publish a love story
26. To quit smoking!!!!
Well, that is my list. Some can be achieved this year, but some may have to wait a few years. My goals in life may be a bit weird, I know, but if I can truly accomplish half of that list within the next couple of years, I will be happy. I dunno, we'll see how life goes. Like C says " Life Happens". I hate and love that line, but the truth is, life happens whether you like it or not. Happy New Years! May the New Year be everything you want it to be.Posted by Nancy Nguyen at 12:13 AM 0 comments Links to this post

Consistency
The current drama of my life! So I'm back working for my parents now. As soon as I told my parents I was getting laid off, they booked their tickets to Vietnam the very next day. Honestly, I wasn't surprised at all. Its their tradition to go to Vietnam twice a year. Too bad it wasn't me that was on vacay. So I filled for unemployment through the state and received tons of stuff in my mail box. The online application process was simple and quick, the only annoying thing was trying to speak to an actual person. In order for me to receive unemployment benefits I have to submit five applications a week. Well, it seems like I have been submitting almost 20 resumes a week! Simple as that. Anyways, job searching has never been so difficult. Every time I apply for jobs I get a response back within the same week or even the next day! I've been applying for over a month already and NO promising leads! Never had this happened to me! Freaking economy and job market is as crappy as my love life. Lucky my previous job gave me a decent severance, so I should be good for a couple of months. I've never been a sucker for homeless people in Austin because I know there are so many organizations to help them out, but every time someone holds up a sign that says "Laid Off" or "Struggling to Find a Job" I have to give them money! Even if I know they were going to buy booze with the money. I feel their pain! The first day I was officially unemployed, I gave a man on the streets a Hersey chocolate bar (Allen left it in my purse..tsk.tsk..) cigz and a dollar, since he held a sign that said " Just got laid off". I told him I just got laid off too and I hope I helped him out some how. He said was an electrical engineer and is struggling to even get interview. The man told me that people would drive by and yell at him "Wouldn't it be easier just to work", in which he totally agrees, but the problem is the job market is so competitive right now. Technically, he should just apply everywhere and not be so picky but I am not him so...enough of that. Right now, I don't have 10 years experience or CPA certified, I just want a 8-5 job with a cubical, a laptop, doing accounting stuff, have tons to projects to keep me busy, music in my ears, and a professional supervisor (sounds like my old job).
Valentine's Day is near, to be exact, three days. Whoopie, what a day to celebrate. To me ,it's just another day right? Wrong. I can say that a million times but I do want to be pampered and love and blah blah blah. I want to be in a romantic setting and have the greatest kiss ever. Never going to happen in my situation.
Ugh* I'm so tired. Can't sleep though. I'm stuck with my mom's two chihuahua pups and they are close to me it is making me feel so squished in this king size bed. Every time I pushed them over, somehow my wiggle their way right next to my arm or side.
I really do enjoy reading my old blogs, mainly the ones that I posted in 2007. It felt like I just posted those last month. As I get older, the months roll by faster! In one of my old blogs I had a long list of what I wanted to accomplished. I read the entire list in last month and I only completed one thing. Which was "going to a Carrie Underwood concert" Pathetic! Maybe I'll stir up an new list for 2009, but this time, I'll have goals that are realistically achievable. Yet, when I read the list, I still want to do all of those things!
Wells, it is time for me to sleep! Nite Nite!
