| Finally landed my first full-time job as a sales associate/management in training position in a respectable restaurant supply company. Yay for me. All of the coworkers are super cool. Work's pretty fun, but the only downside is spending almost all 8 hours of work on my feet. Definitely need some new shoes. Welcome back Niballs, always great to have ya back. Now, for the highlight of my post... Congratulations Sunny and Kat, who are now engaged (FINALLY) and purchased their own first home. I'm so happy for you guys. Good luck and blessings and all that. Remember, I'm still gonna be Uncle Ricky if you'll have me...so when am I gonna see some nephews and nieces?! With Sunny and Kat's next step in life, I've realized that Goddamn we're old now. It seemed like yesterday when we're still in high school...ditching at lunch, fighting, getting into shit, and drinking like there was no other worry in the world.You'll always see your friends the next day at school. Nowadays, with everyone so busy with their own business, consider it lucky if you can see a few of them every few months. I'd hate to admit it and never thought I would say it but....I MISS SB. I miss the weather, the almost carefree school life, the ability to sleep in should I ever choose to, the hot white chicks on campus and around the neighborhood, riding Charlie or Kevin's bikes to class, even the damn 2 mile round trip walk to and from class. Most of all, I miss the great people I've met in my four years there...Jackson, Charlie, Peggy, Jina, Kevin, Richard, Diddy, Lena, and whoever else I've missed. Currently, I'm going through a phase of just wanting to stay home. I don't really feel like going out nor putting up the front in order to go clubbing. I've become a home body. The parentals are getting old, gotta spend more time with them while I can before its too late, God forbid. As my parents grow older, they seem to be more and more like kids. Hehe. Although we have our differences from time to time, I love them to death. Although my mother nags at me every morning as she drives my dui-ass to work, deep down I appreciate her for that. I can't seem to find the voice to tell her that in person, thus, Xanga is my voice. My brother is hitting the critical stage in high school life now...yes...SATs and college apps. Everytime I ask him what he's interested in, he tells me, "I don't know." It worries me, but then again, the first 2 years of college IS to discover your own interests and direction. I just hope that he doesn't take as long and make as many mistakes as I have in discovering his true calling. Last but not least, Congratulations to my cousins Chao Su and Yu Yin on their marriages, the first ones of my generation to get hitched. Also, further congrats to Chao Su for the birth of a beautiful baby boy...the first nephew of my gen. Next, I'd like to congratulate my cousin Cory for getting engaged...ps...does your fiancee have a little sis that might be available? Haha...grats and love you guys. |
