Just Enough to Amuse Me

*Completely unrelated to the post, but still.... it's pretty sweet, yeah?*

---

Let me start off by saying that I've bid this journal a Happy New Years' for the last 4 years *That's right, check it* and it does feel like time has passed by relatively quickly (partially due to the fact that 2010 was the worst year for posts XD) So now that this news is out of the way...

- I finally live in the same town as the school I attend! After moving 6 times within a 2 year period, I have finally ended up in Davis. I don't mind living here; it's actually a little nice. I get to take the bus to school daily, so I can save that gas for the drive to work -__- and I live close to DT Davis *seriously... I live literally 10 mins away. I could walk there, but then I think "I can just take the bus for free".... yep.*

- Living with entirely new roommates, yet again. They're chill like my last roommate, plus we have a little more in common; we're gamers *Yay! =D*

- Work is still work :/ *Need I explain anymore?*

- This term, I'm taking my usual 4 classes. Since the classes in my major were pretty much all filled up, I was left with a Linguistics class that's less than interesting and 3 filler classes. I've got:

• Language, Gender, and Society - meh... I need it, so I suppose I'll put some effort into it
  
  
• Communication Theories - I considered this as an alternative minor, but I'm not sure yet. This class doesn't do a very good job of holding my attention :/
  
  
• Intro to Schools: I am actually enjoying the class. Probably because of my desire to be a teacher : P I'm also having fun with my internship at the Elem. School. :)
  
  
• Intro to Winemaking - Ok... this is the ultimate filler class *even though my professor swears it isn't* It's really interesting to learn about something I know nothing about. I actually started to drink a little bit of wine b/c of this class *You know... on top of the other drinks I have on a weekly basis XD*

Here's to hoping this term turns out to be somewhat interesting!

Aside from that, there's really nothing new. I'll try to have a review up on my next post and we'll see if I can attempt to maintain the journal much better this year.

So, Until Next Time!

In light of current news...

[No picture to post because I'm on my laptop :/]

So.... How about this for an opening liner:

Well, I've finally gotten all *well, almost all. I still have my box of manga that I left and a fan* of my stuff down here to CA. Now, all I have to worry about is the job and the apartment I'm trying to obtain.

Honestly, I didn't think that this process would be so difficult. Then again, when sh*t tends to happen *get screwed over from your job/ have to make multiple trips to get your stuff/ lack of funds for certain things* then you really can't be too prepared.

I have an interview tomorrow for a potential job. Then on Saturday, I'm heading back to the apartments to work on the lease papers and so forth. I can honestly say that this month is going to be a lot busier than I thought it was going to be.

What's starting to worry me now is Comic Con. I kind of just jumped right into that this year as one of those "in the moment" kind of things. I kind of wish I had planned this out better so that I wouldn't have to worry about it now. I still have the intent to go, but I also realize that it's going to be a lot harder now that I have a "full plate". Let's see what happens.

There are plenty of events that are lined up leading up to the beginning of school, which I am also starting to worry about as well. :/ However, let's just do this one day at a time and see where it goes. I'll try to keep up with the updates as this month progresses.

So, Until Next Time!

0 - 0 - 0

Well, the time has come...

Today I start moving out. I'll be making two trips between WA and CA instead of opting to rent a truck. Even though there's a lot of driving ahead of me, I'll at least have some money in my pocket. So, to everyone in WA: I'll be back Monday for the rest of my stuff, then I'll be gone for good. To everyone in the CA: Prepare yourself... I'm heading your way... XD

7 - 11 - 13

*Damn..... I have a lot to do ><*

So, for those of you who haven't figured it out, the title *and the last post* contain a timer. Those who know me at least know what the first number is. :P My co-workers more than likely know what the second number is, and unless I've told you, odds are guessing the third number might be a tad bit difficult. XD Have fun with that!

In other news, I have been trying to finalize all my plans, so that this move can be as smooth as possible.

I have orientation on the 25th *essentially it's an all day thing* and that only gives me a day of rest before had. >_>

The cheapest rental truck I can get *because for some reason, there are no one-way cargo vans* is about $350 ._. That's going to pull extra money that I could use towards rent and stuff :/

I'm trying to get my bro to help me move my stuff down to CA. Essentially, he'll be driving my car and I pay for his plane ticket back. I think it's a fair trade.

I have a list of places to check out when I get down there, but before I do that, I'll be hitting up Santa Cruz with Pat and everyone else. I hear it will be awesome, so.... yeah.... It's definitely something I'm looking forward to. *I need a break from all this thinking ><*

I just learned today that I don't have work on my B-Day! Why is this awesome? Well, this is the first B-Day that I wasn't scheduled to work in 2 years. *I'm not counting the month I went to Japan b/c I was on vacation XD* I have no idea what I'm going to do that day..... Probably sleep or something :/

I made a checklist off all the stuff I'm going to need for the place we eventually find. The list slowly grows by the day, and I'm starting to think that this might be a little more money than what I was expecting. Still, I will keep at it. Eventually, the whole list will be done!

I'm both excited and panicked that I'm finally leaving the WA. I've been saying it for almost 3 years and now it's finally happening. Much like my first solo trip to Japan, I imagine that this will be quite an experience, both good and bad. Still I look forward to it. Hopefully everything works out. :)

Well, that's all I have for now.

So, Until Next Time.
