So That I Remember

Before I say anything else, I will say this: I still can't believe my good luck. It almost feels too good to be true and I'll get hit by a car or something, so I'm walking/driving extra safely these days. This is...so good. Life is...SO GOOD.

I'm incredibly glad the whole job search is over AND I got my dream come true. Just wow....wow...WOW!! Like...this kind of luck and happiness should be illegal!!

Phew, ok...haha...ok. The main reason I'm writing is because now I have to look beyond the job search. Now that my main priority has been accomplished, I can do all the little things I've put off. List time bitches!

1) Work out, lose 5 lbs in time for convo (20 days) so I can fit in that super sweet dress...otherwise I'll have to buy a new dress lol

2) Learn Chinese. I'm going back to China with grandpa in November and I'll probably be staying in Asia until March/April of next year! First I'm going to travel China/Taiwan/HK by myself or with grandpa, then Southeast Asia with my cousin during her New Years holiday. She really wants to go to Thailand too, so we can go parasailing! The timing works out perfectly!! (I'll still pay you for the concert tickets you've bought Mihan)

3) Finally finish my remix of Heaven on Earth by Britney

4) Violin and piano practice. I can play Clair de Lune on Piano now! YAY! It took a ... really long time...

5) Play all the games I bought. Over the past month, I've accumulated 5 games and have actually only spent...maybe 15 hours total on the PS3. Let's see, what do I have...

• Bioshock
• LittleBigPlanet
• Resistance
• Fat Princess
• Rachet and Clank
• Uncharted - gonna get that off Frank

Ok so that's not that many...doable!

6) Get highlights in my hair...haha, this is gonna be fun. And a new haircut too, I'm tired of this long hair. I look like a dirty peasant.

7) Dragonette concert this Thursday! It's gonna be awesome! Hopefully, I'll meet up with the old investment banking team too so I can rub my new job into their unbelieving faces. SUCK IT.

That's all I can think of for now. The learning Chinese thing is really top priority though. It'd be so embarrassing to go back and not know how to speak properly. Oh yeah, that means I won't be buying the TV either, haha...why buy it when I'm not even going to get to use it, and my parents don't want to spring for HD cable yet. Oh well, it'll be cheaper next year.

I'll be getting my offer package in the mail today (fingers crossed!). I don't even care how much they pay me, I'm just glad I have a job. That's actually another reason I can't buy the TV. I totally didn't realize the you don't get the "signing bonus" until after you start working! I thought I'd get it as soon as I returned their offer saying yes. Ack...so yeah, what little money I have left needs to be saved for traveling.

Well, time to start the day off with some good quality Chinese learning! YAY!!
