| so i haven't even looked at this site in awhile. i forgot how long it's been since i last updated. not much to say.... work is good.
i did go to the states for chinese new year. it was good to see my dad's side of the family and of course have a shopping spree. i love shopping in the states where i can find clothes that actually fit me. it's a great feeling. what was even greater was realising that throught pilates and living in hk, i am officially down at least a pant size. i went by my old work place and was so grateful that i wasn't there anymore. it was the best feeling ever!!
i'm going to london for easter. i'm going to see my bestest friend ever. i can't wait!! plus i get to run around london and see all the fabulous history and culture. i'm definitely gonna fit in at least one show. woohoo!!
and the countdown til summer has begun...it's officially 76 more days til summer! yay!

| wow it's been ages. it's now into november. can't believe it's almost christmas. time has flown by.
work is crazy. my morning class seems to just get naughtier and
naughtier. it makes for a stressful day. my afternoon class is ok, but
we got two new kids. so trying to get them settled is lots of fun. my
partner and i weren't getting along for awhile. but then i confronted
her, so things are a bit better now. altho she's been gone alot coz her
husband's in the hospital. when she comes back for real, we'll see how
it goes.
doing pilates is starting to work. i've started to notice that my
clothes are looser on me. and i'm toning up. i'm not exactly losing
weight, but it's more muscle now. woohoo. the classes totally kick my
ass every time. something is always sore. hahaha. but it's a good sore.
coz i'm finally doing something about getting healthy.
i got to see my old friend dayve last weekend. it was nice to just
catch up. altho it just reminded me of how different i am from when i
was in highschool. it seems that dayve and i have just drifted apart
over the last few years. there's less understanding btw us. not that's
a bad thing, it means we're both growing. it's just kind of sad, coz i
used to count him among those really close friends. and now he's fallen
from that list.
that's pretty much it. my life is mostly work these days. and
occassionally i go out. i hang out with ppl from work. i've had a
couple of crazy times. but those will remain off the record. hahaha.
well that's all for now folks.

| this is my 5th week of work.
i'm still exhausted and i'm starting to get sick. i keep losing my
voice. it's all the singing and talking all day long. hahaha.
been out a couple times. it's so much fun to go out and dance your ass
off. plus it's always great when a hot guy wants to dance with you.  it really is a boost to the ego, especially when you are feeling more lonely and unattractive.
i've started working out. i'm going with steph (my brother's friend).
it's fun. we're doing pilates and it totally kicks my ass. literally.
my ass is all sore today. hahaha. which is hard coz i have to bend down
all the time at work. but hopefully this will help me melt off some of
the extra pounds i put on over the last few years of US living.
i can't wait til i have a vacation at the end of this month woohoo!
oh here's a depressing thought, i'm turning 23 this month. and i just
realised that my mother met my dad when she was 23. so where the hell
is my man? i love how sex and the city's charlotte says it (thanks lil
for reminding me of this), "I've been dating since i was 15. where the
hell is he?!?!?!?" yep pretty much sums up how i feel right now.
that's all for now folks.

| i have officially accomplished my first week of work at the
kindergarten. i teach 2 year olds. it's been crazy...crying, screaming,
temper tantrums, and even puking. yeah that's right. they cry so much
they end up puking. i got vomit on me today. it nearly made me vomit
too. i just can't handle it. bleh! i think it'll be good once they get
settled in, but right now it's just hell. thankfully they are really
cute, which makes things a little better. sigh....it's the longest day
too. i have two classes, so i'm working for like 8 hours a day. i've
been exhausted. i'm trying to get used to that schedule again.
this weekend was ok. i went out of friday, but it was kinda boring. oh
and i ordered a dirty martini, except the bar had run out of olive
juice so it really wasn't that dirty. then i got really hungry so my
brother bought a pizza and we all split it. it was really yummy -
shocking for hong kong pizza. a large here is like a medium in the
states. hahaha.
saturday morning i got woken up to drilling. they are doing major
construction on my building it's crazy. altho i can kind of escape,
because i'm housesitting again. but it sucks coz it's really far away.
well that's all for now. i'm sooo tired. i need a long nap.

| work has been fun. i have a small class, and my kids are really good.
they actually asked me for more work! so we finished the first book
last friday and this week we are reading Catcher in the Rye. i always
thought of that book as funny, but it's really tragic. hahaha. shows
how much i knew in my younger years. i just saw the surface level. it's
good to be actually teaching it, coz it forces me to look at it a lot
deeper. if i read something for fun, i just don't think about it as
much. anyways i'm almost finished work only 3 more days. then i have a
few days off before starting the next job.
i've been housesitting for some family friends. their fucking cat kept
me up all night the first night. and last night i was prolly too tired
to wake up to the crying of the cat. sigh...makes me NEVER want to have
pets. i have to go back there every night to feed the cat and wake up
early to feed it and clean out it's kitty litter. sigh....way too much
hassel. the thing that really sucks is that they live pretty far out,
so once i'm there it's too much effort to go anywhere else.
can't believe the summer is almost over. i still want to play.
