Working
Alright so I've got some sweet news for this post! As most of you already know I'm currently in school. What you may or may not know is that this is a year long program only. So by this April I'll be done with the program and such. Meaning I'll need to go find a job and such so I can start making money and such. However, I won't need to go looking for a job now. The reason, last week I believe, I sent in an application to a company and went in for an interview on Monday. This Thursday I received another call from this same company. Informing me that I've been chosen to be their new employee!!! WOOT this means, I've got a job and will be starting on May 14th! Yay! For more specific details, you guys will have to contact me more directly, either through email, phone or meeting me in the real world, which shouldn't be hard for many of you since you know exactly where I live ^_^.

Time Management???
Alright so I haven't posted for awhile now. This is hopefully going to be short because I need sleep but wanted to do this before I sleep. Anyways, the topic for this post will be time management. I seem to be having troubles managing my time. Normally, I'm pretty good at it but lately... as in the past 2 or 3 weeks, I've been doing a very poor job of managing my time. Now I'm having some problems finding time to do my homework, study and generally do anything productive. I think I need help on this matter so please anyone that reads this. Any ideas on how I can improve my time management skills?

Am I the only one???
So I just realized something.
I LOVE MUSIC!!!
I find that I'm listening to my ipod a lot. But it's just so nice. I really like it when the song that I'm listening to matches the mood that I'm in and the atmosphere... somehow! Just so that you know, I don't listen to that emo crap... well maybe one or two songs that could be kinda considered as emo... but still I think a lot of emo music is crap. No offense to anyone that listens to it. This is simply my opinion.
I'm really glad that they came up with mp3 players. If they didn't, I wouldn't be able to take my music along with me! I really like being able to listen to my iPod on the train and bus. Mostly because on the way to and from school takes about an hour. So I get an hour to simply relax in the seat or stand there but still I get to enjoy my music. Instead of the sounds of traffic, stupid people and I can let my mind wander... but not so much that I miss my stop. ^_^
Although unlike what my dad says, I'm not dependant on the thing... he for some reason thinks that I can't go 10 minutes without being entertained... *sigh*
Oh well the way I see it, it's better to do whatever you can to enjoy the ride to school instead of just sitting there thinking: "I don't want to go to school!" Instead you can think things like: "Whee I really love this song" or "This song is sweet" or anything along those lines. Well I guess you could think: "This song is great! Too bad I'm going to school..." But I prefer to be positive about things! Anyways that's all for today's post!

A post of congratulations!
So as you people who have been reading my blog know I'm going to school at the moment. As well as looking for a job for when I'm done with the program! Which will be at the end of April this year. Anyways, this post is simply to congratulate one of my classmates. Though I really doubt that he'll ever see this post! Oh well doesn't matter... Anyways, this week he went to an interview for a job and got a call back saying he's got the job! Isn't that awesome! He told the rest of use students what to expect in an interview and is going to tell us a range for our salary! Which is awesome since we don't know what it'll be... I've heard some pretty high numbers and some pretty low numbers at the same time... I'm hoping that I have some luck and manage to get a job sometime too.
So lets see what else is new... I have started playing poker with a few of my friends. Man I'm such a terrible gambler... Even though the amounts are actually really small when you think about it... it seems like just the idea of losing money is really tough for me. I mean like even though it seems to balance out eventually... I dunno. I guess I'm just not a gambling type of person. Also I get the feeling that I'm super easy to read or something. Maybe I'm just playing the game really stupid like? Whatever, I guess that it's still fun to play poker with my friends... so I guess I don't mind losing the money too much...
However, I'm a very sore loser even though I don't like to show it. I absolutely hate losing... it's just awful. I still try to hide it as much as I can... it's tough sometimes though. Beh... Oh well I guess it builds character or something... Or maybe it's not the fact that I'm a sore loser but actually it's my incredible lack of sleep! Like my sister told me: "When you don't get enough sleep, it will feel like the world exists only to annoy you"... Maybe that's the case with the whole poker thing. I'm not getting enough sleep so I'm more irritable?
Maybe...
Anyways, I think my teacher is headed this way so I should finish up this post.

The reason!!!
Hahaha!!! So I found out why my friends can't comment on my blog! Apparently it had to do with my settings! So it was set so that only bloggers could leave comments. Which is sorta lame no offense to all you bloggers out there that might be reading this! Anyways so now I have fixed that and I hope to get more comments from peoples that I know!!!! WHEEE! But as a little reminder, please don't refer to specific locations as I am trying to keep locations that I'll be and such a secret! And the reason behind that is that it is simply a condition that my parents have for me! They're a little bit overprotective at times but hey it shows they care! Anyways WHEE! I hope to get lots of comments!!!!

Poor timing = disappointed Jon Mah
Ok so here's the deal! There's this huge sporting event that's really important to me and a bunch of my friends. I would like to attend this event. HOWEVER!!! I won't be able to attend because it is this weekend! Guess what else is this weekend. A cousins birthday party! I've been invited and well call me a dork if you want but I should probably attend this as well... I don't want to hurt my little cousins feelings by not showing up but I would prefer to avoid dissapointing my friends by not showing up either. ARGH!!!
So this is all happening this weekend... so that's why the title of this post. As you might be able to tell, I'm not sure... I haven't been to clear on this post... I don't think. I'm very dissapointed. All I can hope for is that one of my friends that is going to the sporting event will read this and take many a pictures and send them to me. If not... well I guess that's my problem...
So I've also noticed that I haven't been posting very often. The reason is because of school. Recently the teachers have been giving me lots of homework to do and tests to study for. So I've been very busy and have found that I have less time to type up a post about pretty much anything. Also I've noticed that I haven't really been sticking with my original plan on what I was going to use this blog for! In case no one remembers, I'm pretty sure I was going to use this blog to try to stay in touch with my friends! But that kinda got lost and now I just post about anything that's on my mind. Anyways... since some of you (my friends) have been telling me that you can't leave comments on my blog... for some reason I'm not really sure why you can't... I'd really like to read some comments from you guys. Just so I know that someone is reading my blog. So if you don't mind just email me a comment instead. It would be much appreciated. Plus you should already know my email address so there's no need for me to post that. Well I really hope to hear from any of you!

RISK!!!!
Okay so the other night I went over to a friends place and a bunch of us played Risk the board game. However, the game can be very long and our choice of timing was... poor. I say this because we started the game around 9:00pm that night and well... it ended around 12:30 am. In addition, it was a Sunday night and I had to go to school the next day at 8:00 am. Also because my course is a little bit aways from where I live, it takes about an hour to get to school so that means I have to get out of the house by 7:00 am. Not to mention in the mornings, it can take me up to an hour to get up and get ready for the day... I have to wake up by 6:00 am. So if you include the time it takes to get the game put away and get out of the house and go home to sleep. I got home about 12:40 something am.
Now you have to include my getting ready for bed and time spent thinking of whether I should try to just stay awake all night and stay awake through class, or go to sleep as soon as possible and get what little sleep I can... I picked go to sleep by the way. Anyways by the time I was in bed it was about 1:00 am.
Not only was I in bed late, I for some reason couldn't actually get to sleep for another hour and a half. So the time that I actually ended up going to bed at was about 2:30 am. So if I wake up at 6:00 am and got to bed at 2:30 am... well... that gives me about 4 and a half hours of sleep...
SO BE WARNED!!!! IF YOU PLAY RISK!!! YOU RISK HAVING A GAME THAT WILL LAST ABOUT 3 HOURS IF YOU PLAY WITH 4 OR MORE PLAYERS!!! ESPECIALLY IF YOU WANT TO PLAY UNTIL THE END!!!!
...I wanna sleep... T-T

Not actually...
So I haven't been posting for awhile now it seems. And some people might think that it's because I'm just too busy... some might think I'm too lazy...
Well you're all wrong!
Actually I just haven't had any ideas as to what I should write! Gah, nothing terribly interesting to talk about... so therefore I've had nothing to really say. So now... umm... yeah...
To all of my friends because this is the reason I made this blog in the first place. I'm doing fine! I've just been going to school coming home, doing my homework and then occasionaly going out with friends! However, nothing terribly interesting... but hey something is bound to happen seeing as how it's been so long since something actually happened! So I look forward to that time! Till something happens or I decide to post anyways!
