Thursday Update

It's the week before Spring Break and I have so much shit to finish.

My internship paper for Disney which first was due on Feb 2, that I got extended til March 20 (tomorrow) is about to be done with. We're talking 30-40 pages of complete madness here. I'm also about to pull an all nighter on a history paper on the accuracies&inaccuracies in the movie 300 due tomorrow as well.

I just wish I could concentrate on either of them!

Basically this week has been pretty upside down.

A lot of stuff is changing, for the worse or better I don't know yet.

I haven't been working out as much as I've wanted to, I haven't done as many hours at work as I wanted to, all I've been doing is writing on these god damn papers. I deifinitely know that an hour or two at the gym would make me feel much better, but I think I just have to put it off til I'm done.

The only fun I've had was on Tuesday when I really got my drink on for

St. Patricks Day

Maybe a little bit too much fun, but hey, It's only once a year :)

I think the story of that night is better left untold.

Interview with Disney!

Yesterday I called up Disney to schedule a phone interview for another college program with them. The lady on the phone tells me that my interview is going to be at 2:40pm the following day and for me to finish the E-presentation and all that beforehand.

I stayed up late last night just finishing the presentation and all of that stuff, basically freaking out about the whole thing.. This morning, I wake up late and tired, don't go to the gym like I had planned, because all I can think about is the interview later on!! I was planning to go to work from 12:00pm - 5:00pm like always but last minute decide to not go to work...

I sit at my computer just writing papers and at exactly 1:40pm my phone rings. "Number Unavailable" shit shit shit it's them! ... But? One hour early?!

Apparently there's been a mixup, probably due to daylight savings that we don't do here in Hawaii, and they decide to call me an hour earlier.... thank GOD I didn't go to work! :)

Even worse, she's telling my that my application that I filled out online is blank... Oh, great! We have to go over everything again and she then can start asking me actual interview questions. We spend about 20 minutes on the phone and I tried to come up with good answers! I think I did good though, the girl I talked to was cool and I did my best to sound positive and excited! :D

The roles that I applied for are:

• Hospitality
• Housekeeping
• Resort Hopper
• Merchandise
• Bell Services
• Vacation Planner
• FSF&B
• QSF&B
• Character Attendant

Now it's just this terrible waiting game... 4-6 weeks she said. That's a really long time! But I remember last year when I applied, it only took about 2 weeks til I got my letter.
If I get this, I would go back to Florida for another seven months: May - January.
However, there's also a chance that I still can get in to the Summer Alumni Program at Disney that I also applied for, that would be from May - August.

I'll be back with an update on this!

I just want to go back!

There's this boy...

I don't even know what more to say because it's just so damn complicated!

You know when someone is all you think about all day, and every other song reminds you of that person, and you don't really notice other guys around you, when you can't control your feelings and it feels just right.
Well that's it!

There's just this one big problem---------->Distance

So since I'm a major control freak I wanna know... What's the solution?

I went for a long walk on the beach today to try to clear my thoughts. It felt better for the moment but it was a definitely a short-term solution cuz as soon as I got back home I had the same issues I left with + some red, burned shoulders.

Fort DeRussy Beach Park

Weigh-in day!

It's like I have my own little "Biggest Loser" competition going on.
Weigh-in day today!
I lost 1.2lbs this week, for a total loss of 8.4lbs in 2009. Woop woop!

In my boring life, Saturday mornings are usually always™ meant for working out.
The only exception is when I decide to go out on a Friday night and get myself belligerent drunk. Me getting drunk doesn’t seem to happen as often now though, which I guess is good thing :)

Anyways, so I get to the gym at 9:00am as always and I am ready for my Turbo Kick Box class. The only reason I want to get up early on a weekend is this specific class in itself, it’s amazingly fun and kicks my ass every time.
Today was going to be different though. After the usual hour of TKB I was going to the Everlast Shadow Box class as well as a 24LIFT class.
The gym was introducing this new class called Everlast Shadow Box. This class, taught by one of my fave instructor Honey, was crazy.
Turbo Kick Box is a more choreographed type of workout with kickboxing moves, sports drill, dancing and even some yoga to bumping music, at all times. Each class seriously feels like a party, but makes you sweat like you wouldn’t believe.
Everlast Shadow Box is completely different. Basically, you go 12 – 3min rounds (and yes, there is a timer). All boxing moves, no kicks. There’s music pumping (eye of the tiger for example hah), but the music is not the focus as you’re not gonna do your moves to the beat. It’s like a boxers workout, jump rope and all, and I almost felt like puking afterwards.
THEN, all that was left in my crazy morning workout was my 24LIFT class. At this point my body was already shaking and screaming at me to go home already, but I made it through!

Love that good feeling you get after a great workout!

Music keeps me sane

I've had so much on my mind these last few days that I don't know how to channel my thoughts into words...

There's just a lot going on; things that I can change, and things that I cannot. When situations are out of your control, you just have to learn to let them go.. that way you can occupy my mind with much better things.

-

"Music speaks what cannot be expressed, soothes the mind and gives it rest,

heals the heart and makes it whole, flows from heaven to the soul."

-

so, without further ado, here's a very soothing song:

Domenic Marte - Con Los Ojos Cerrados

I just love this song! ♥
There's no story behind it, it's not complicated: it just makes me happy!
Just like a bunch of other amazing music, I think I found it on my roommate Yuyu's computer back at Vista Way (Disney... Orlando) sometime last year!
I miss those days!

Losing Weight in 2009, for sure!

As always, I'm struggling with my weight! But that's OK! Always have, always will.

After spending 7 months working for Disney I somehow managed to gain like 10lbs.
And I know exactly why that happened! Busy workschedule, parties basically every single night, a pathetic little gym, and more fast food places around than grocery stores!
It was fun tho, and i'm not stressing.
But its time to get serious again.

So, I've created a little 'ticker' for myself.
I basically started it off from when I got back to Hawaii, when I was back at the gym again, just around my birthday on January 14!
2009 is gonna be a great year!

Just another ordinary, stressful day

I stayed up 'til 3am studying last night. Got 3hours of sleep before it was time to get up at 6am to study some more! :)
Talk about last minute cramming... Leaving my house I felt like I didn't know shit and right as my professor walked into the classroom I freaked out!

He handed out the test, I took a look at it and felt like damn, I got this! I don't know what got in to me (except for that caffeine pill), but I just wrote non-stop for those 55min. and I was satisfied with my performance! Totally acing the test.... that's what it's aaaaaaall about! A's!

For the rest of the day I was hella tired and extremely hungry. Didn't have time to eat anything between class and work.

I'll definitely need some rest tonight! Maybe I'll watch a movie or something... Haven't had time for that in a while :)

All I have left in school now before Springbreak: 2 big papers, and some other minor stuff.
I can do this!

The question is: Am I going to Florida or not?

I have a blog!

I've been studying all day.

Ok, I might be exaggerating a lil bit. Correction: I have attempted to study all day. All weekend actually!!

I have a really important midterm exam coming up tomorrow morning at 8:35am. Just 5 minutes ago I was creating flash cards that I won't even have time to really use before it's time to take the exam. Yet I find it extremely important to start my own blog, right at this moment.

The thought of creating my own blog actually never crossed my mind before! But you know how it is, when there's something you really have to do, such as studying or filing your taxes, you all of a sudden remember how you have to do laundry, shampoo the dog or clean your bathroom.

As I wrote that last sentence I realize how stupid I am.. time to go.
