Need to start doing some Job Hunting in the LA area

Just realizing this now, August is almost over and my sister and I are planning on leaving late September or October... Somewhere in the fall anyway. I seriously need to start working on my resume and just start sending it. I want to make sure that I have something when I'm out there and also having to get a place to stay. I'm a little nervous now because it's almost gametime and I'm really not prepared at all as I thought I would. My job is being very shady and I know that they'll find a way to screw us over getting a severance pay. I may have to find some random temp jobs here in Des Moines in the mean time. I think I'm actually a little scared now, I was telling myself whatever happens I'm going down there anyway but that isn't smart and I gotta really start saving now. Some friends are planning on taking a trip to LA in October and I would be kinda cool if I was already out there... I don't know, I gotta stop spending money.

Wish me luck folks...

Kids Need to Respect!

So there are these two brothers that are cousins of my cousin's and everytime my uncle's family would have some kind of party and this family is invited. I have to say these kids are the rudest piece of trash out there. Not that it matters, but the dad is white so they're half Thaidam and half white. Anyway everytime they come over they don't bother to play with the other kids they would just sit there being obnoxious and would once in a while speak just to say something rude to another cousin or kid. I was told by my cousin that her family invited them to a baseball game and they were sitting behind them. One of them decided to put their feet up on the chair that my little cousin was sitting in and she told him to stop but he continued doing it even after my uncle has told him to stop.

So the last party at the house was my little cousin's birthday and of course we're all watching tv we all agreed on something to watch, no big they were just sitting in the back minding their own business. A little later we went to another room to watch my cousin blow out the candles and of course the two brothers stayed behind didn't care for that and went up and change the channel on the TV. We came back and asked nicely since we were all watching that if we could change the channel back. The freaking little brat didn't even acknowledge us at all he just continued watching what he was watching. Luckily I was leaving the house around that time so it didn't matter much to me but now that I think of it I'm really annoyed and pissed about it. This isn't the first time this kid has done this. I want to just tell him off and tell off their parents.

Your kids needs to respect one another, if you haven't noticed they're alone and not playing with the other kids. My uncle invited your family over and your kids didn't even wish her a Happy Birthday. You're not good parents and should be very shameful that you have not told them what is right or wrong. Especially the father, you married an asian lady you should know that we're a big family and you know that we love and respect one another and our culture so take your fucking SHOES off when you get in the house! They had to be married at least 10 years so he has no excuses, if he hasn't hung out with the family enough then he should have taken time to do so, there's a lot of opportunities to be around us we celebrate almost everything so there's so many events he could attend. I'm just more upset about how they let their children get away with all this shit.

Omaha Around 6 in the Morning

So my sister went on a vacation for a few days to NYC and the flight would be cheaper if she left from Omaha instead of straight out of Des Moines. Her flight leaves at around Tuesday 18th 2009 5:45 in the morning so I asked my cousin, since she has weird working hours if she wants to join me. We decided to stay around and take some pictures... I know we're weird.

AUGUST 19TH 2009

Finally got Teddy to sleep. Now it's my turn... Good night all.

I'm at work... I don't know what's up with me but I've developed this caugh... it's so annoying and my chest is hurting because of it.

Ramen again? Hell yeah!

So I know Ramen isn't known for something that people would have big cravings for, but this is what I'm eating tonight. You just got to know where to get your Ramen packages from. Can't go to those American grocery stores you got to go an authentic Asian store where they actually get it imported. It doesn't hurt also adding in some Sriracha and Oyster Sauce into the mix. I know there are a few Ramen Houses (Restaurants only serving Ramen) out there, I just wish they had one here in Iowa.

Follow me on Twitter

Hmm... I don't remember that!

Well, I guess I was kind of bad this past Thursday night (08/06/09). I have this new shift at work that it's making it really hard for me to want to stay there any longer, I now get off of work at 9pm and work Saturdays now. Anyway I was really persistent on getting drunk tonight so I didn't eat anything the whole day and bought a bottle of Tequila to have fun with. I picked up a friend to meet at another friend's house and thought we should also get a bottle of Hennessy. Anyway yeah so we had a couple shots at the house and I was good I can probably groove with this feeling and not have anymore for the night... Once we got to the bar it we found a group that was buying shots and someone had to say it was my birthday that night so I got tons more free shots after that. I don't remember but one shot but another friend of mine said I took a couple of them... It was pretty much a blur to me after taking the first shot actually. I really don't remember much after that moment.

Everything below is what people has told me has happened...

We made it back to the house, I think I went with my friend to walk her dog and somehow scratch my arm on something (that is still a mystery to this day...) I guess we had maybe another shot... Another group of friends made it back to the house during that time I made it to the toilet and vomit my guts out... I was needing help operating the sink... I guess I had an argument or said something to one of my friends that made her go to her room and shut the door from us... I guess I was being kind of grabby??? I had to throw up again but instead of making it to the toilet, I think another friend gave me cups to puke into... I guess it obviously shows that I didn't eat anything because my vomit was nothing but liquid... I think I asked my friend to take me home and drive my car and I was vomiting the way back... We had some argument and actually drove her to her car... vomit at home made it to the toilet... passed out.

The next day I got a call from a friend telling me all of this and I feel actually real horrible that all of that has happened. I seriously don't remember any of all of that... For real though, I think we've all had moments that we're all embarrassed about and there's no way of really changing it you'll just have to take what it is and go on from that. I do feel horribly bad that night for whatever I have done or who I have made upset. That's all you can really do the damage is done and you'll just need to learn from it.

Later I found out I broke their toilet for hugging it too much or something... Don't worry I'll pay them back for that.

Sister Back Home. Part Deux

This is going to be like another journal entry, i just have nothing really interesting going on and I feel like just writing a little...

So as you know my sister has came back from California, she had to move back for a while because she has broken up with her boyfriend over there but they left on good terms. It's just that he's moving back to Los Angeles without really giving her a notice she didn't have time to try to look for something else at the time for a new place so she had to actually quit her job with Conde Naste and move back to Des Moines for a little while. She is planning on moving down back to Los Angeles again at the end of September and for me I totally feel like it's an opportunity to also get down there with her to start a whole new "life" down there in LA LA Land.

I kind of feel weird living back with my sister again at my parents' house. It's kind of weird but I felt I had more freedom with her gone. I feel like she's always looking over me and it's just weird. I don't have a friendly relationship with her I still her see as an older sibling so I feel like I can't really talk to her about my day as much because I'm afraid she'll judge me or something. She actually expressed that a couple weeks ago and I really didn't even think about it until she said that. I am doing this to myself and I gotta be more open in our relationship because if I'm planning on moving down there with her we gotta communicate and be friends not just brother and sister. So I have been trying to be more talkative with her but there is still some place where I don't talk to her much about. It's almost her birthday right now and she's planning on taking a vacation to New York with her ex-boyfriend I thought it was kind of weird but whatever... Hopefully I'll have the money to move out with her or at least find a job right away out there that pays nicely...
