Lol i need 80 points to apply ;.; i wosh i knew about it soonerrr!! Fml!

I just need to ..
-Test at topik lvl 5/6
-complete a korean integration program

>_< talk about lighting a fire under my ass. My visa ends in august o_O;; .. i just wanna work (non teacher related).. while studying korean till 2014, julius' hs graduation and finish my time with TaLK. I can't bear anymore here in Taean past 2 years.

Yay! I'm sorta getting the hang of the turns. It's so tiring ugh. I need a nap. Maybe i can just go skiing for the winter instead of like going outta the country

Tipsyyyyyy

도와주세요.. help. Jk

I get distracted easily. Things I've been wanting to address are sorta starting to come together. Like my "environment"

-i change into "house clothes" rather than "sleeping clothes", if I wanna get stuff done.

-i bought a new heater so I don't get stuck to the bed & the heated blanket so that I don't have to think about the weather or whatever affecting me

-i picked up on an old habit of drinking stuff while studying. i went through like 4 big teabags in 2 days

-i have a bunch of 귤 to munch on so that I don't go into a food coma by "refueling" with rice or potstickers.. or actual meals LOL. it's a nice healthy snack. the peanut butter sandwiches i had previously made me sleepy.. lol. i have some bananas here too.

-i find that i study best when in long periods undistracted. I do my work best when it's quiet but at the same time, I like the feeling/illusion of people around me. weird. but yeah, I guess at night & the morning would be best. We'll see if i wake up and go straight to studying.

-i focus best when it's quiet but fall asleep too LOL. so, i've been playing kpop in the background speaker system (it's on the floor) so that it's really low.. where I can hum a tune or some lyrics but go back to studying & stay awake. i usually have the need to listen to music loud or at least at a normal sound level but it has distracted me in the past . especially if i didn't have a playlist and relied on finding songs through youtube . (I'm getting tired of all the songs on my phone though. but i spent a lot of money downloading songs--i actually buy them now. i feel bad cuz it's so cheap & the lyrics come w/ it & stuff).
-----------

my English is getting worse . if i try to say something fast or even type it, shit goes wrong / fuzzy. I couldn't remember the word "ladle" when they asked me the english word for it at a staff dinner Wednesday night.
............

My issue is having bed gravity + cold luring me into the bedroom. I'm lucky I have a big kitchen that I have a table in. Most people's kitchens can fit just their fridge nd sink.. not much room.. or their washer is in their also.

------------

Basically, I want to finish the Talktomeinkorean.com lessons. It's been over 3 hrs and I haven't even finished level 5 yet -_-;;  the explanations are long but useful. I wanna be familiar with the grammar before my Korean classes in Seoul and here in Taean start again next year. Plus, I can practice on their Harukorean.com website in January with their sentence builders & practice more speaking & stuff.

---------------

Let's see if I can wake up in the morning.

+I hope that my gas bill doesn't get cut off. I PAID LAST MONTH BUT GOT A NOTICE THAT I DIDN'T. So, i transferred the money for this month's bill. If my gas is cut off, I can always take a shower at the gym and boil hot water with my plug-in hot water boiler till things get sorta out.

+WHERE'S MY STUFF? I ORDER MY COMPUTER MONITER OVER A WEEK AGO and my stuff from China hasn't arrive yet! ( I bought watches & stuff last month. Only my stopwatches came through :/ ) LOL.

+I hope my electric bill isn't too high. It's normally like 3 to 7 dollars, depending if i used my laptop a lot. But with my new electric blanket & heater.. I hope it'll only be like 25 bucks at max. 30 would be okay too; I mean, it would be cheaper than my 60 dollar heating bill last year with me still freezing my ass off in the bed or way too hot by lying on the floor. Then again, my space heater was 20 bucks and my blanket was 50 bucks but.. I know I'll be staying in the house a lot this winter.

+Still debating on where to go for vacation. I don't wanna blow hella money but I wanna go somewhere warm!! If only I could find a magic $300 plane ticket . Maybe malaysia? Japan is too expensive & cold. The ticket to Philippines is probably $700USD roundtrip. Hong Kong or Taiwan would be my best bet... I'm still thinking of Hong Kong & Macau cuz I haven't been yet & I saw a ticket for $400. If I see a $350 roundtrip ticket in January or February, I'm snatching it.

My mom said she'd give me xmas money. ㅎㅎㅎ. I was saying I wanted to go to Hong Kong but the money LOLL. I love my mommy <3. Maybe I can use half of the bday money for the ticket.

I haven't talked to my dad in a while. Maybe I'll call him around Xmas.

hybernate for the winter until the cold goes away! I'M DREADING THE SNOW, IT'S GONNA BE SUPER FREEZING, I'M ALREADY FREEZING. lol even though i bought a heated blanket, i caved and bought a space heater to keep me away from the bed while i'm online.

each time in the cafeteria i keep thinking about my kids. i don't wanna leave them but i'm soooo readyyyy for a change of pace.

my eyes get watery cuz i keep thinking about it. and how awesome the food is at the cafeteria. and how i can always get seconds. and how i can stuff myself to the point where i don't really need to eat dinner LOL. 

future stuff:

I'm "not ready" to grow up
time just isn't enough

i want to look here and there,
try this at that everywhere

i don't want to worry about anyone but me,
there's just a whole world to see!

nobody to drag me down,
to discover the unfound!

so many things in the world to worry about,
many thoughts that keep me with doubt

i want to keep the feeling of travel fresh,
there's no time to sleep---no time to rest!

i'm not ready to grow up yet,
there's so many people i haven't met

i don't know when this feeling will go away,
but i can't take living like this each day

i want to look back at my life accomplished,
not one that was left unfruitful and relinquished

--------

.

i'm doing this typing game to type in korean. i'm faster now and don't have to look at the keyboard (well, my laptop doesn't have korean keys anyway..lol) but the levels are getting harderr!! haha. ugh. i can't type fast enough! i think i need to move towards vocabulary & grammer eventually rather than just reading. ugh. my kids know more vocab in english than i do!

I just want to work in something that suits me. I want a career.

I'm not ready to run a business yet. My short-term goals are to bank up money for future goals and to gain life experience. It would be nice to work somewhere that supports my hobbies but gives me money. I have a lot of "fears" or rather.. concerns. I mean, you get tired of the daily drag. I would hate for me to run out of passion for my hobby. So, it's nice that it's like my "escape" to sing or learn Korean or dance. I can take my time.

I enjoy working with the kids. THEY'RE SO EFFING CUTE! Yeah, i said it, cute! lol. They'll make u sign another year contract without you realizing it! But I AM NOT mentally stimulated. It's the same thing everyday with different grades. I mean, ultimately, I AM teaching the same thing to the students, even if they level up a grade. It's the same thing. I'm spicing things up, I am. But I can't see anything like teaching kids for the long-term. It was a good experience and I'm gonna truly miss the kids but I need to move on. (haha, I'm not even done with TaLK!). I guess these thoughts are here cuz I'm on my last 6 months and it'll go by fast cuz I'm already in the "flow" of teaching. I enjoy being in flow. Things just automatically happen.
------------------

ANYWAY. I made a call to Hang and it was nice for her to find something she's interested in. I really hope that she at least gives it a try and I know she can work hard.

Well, even though I've been exploring majors for years, I found this one that's reliant on math. -_-;; ... It's called many things such as M.S. in Predictive Analytics or, M.S. in Analytics or M.S. in Business Analytics. ANYWAYS, all of them are the same shit but different names lol.

There are programs that are 2 years, 10-months, or even online (which is probably 2 years). I honestly can't work and go to school at the same time. It's so draining! Body is drained, mind is drained! FUCK. I'm on a break (again lol) cuz I just transferred and financial aid and stuff.

But yeah..

There's different positions relating to this but, I want to explore the role of a Data Visualizer. They explore big data and communicate it to other levels of the company. I think this is kewl cuz you get to feel like you're a part of everyone in the company. You also have to be curious lol. One comment in another article says that you're like "the glue". I'm totally all about being curious about things and solving problems, and meeting all sorts of people, and not doing the same kind of work/problem everyday.

I don't want to be responsible for a lot of things but I want to feel involved, like I matter and that I interact with people & ideas. I think I'm on to something here. But, I've said that about a lot of things but this position sounds very specific. I'm moving away from degrees that are general and trying to find a niche, something that's me. Plus, there's a labor shortage and they make like $89,000 starting but it's a bunch of math classes and work for me. D: .. and I'm scared that I'll be at the computer everyday but it's inevitable. We'll see how life unfolds.

here's a small vid I found

I never though the idea of wanting to try out Calculus would ever happen
---------

Hang, maybe our majors will be semi-related.. cuz of the math. (If I decide to go after this one after bachelors. If I even finish bachelors on time and don't burn out). It would be nice to...


2013 Summer: Finish TaLK. Get internship at Boston Consulting Group (high doubts). See if I wanna work in this area of work.
2013 Fall: Join an intensive Korean language class somewhere in Korea while working on my degree.
2014 Spring :Finish bachelors & go home! Apply for grad school
2014 Summer: Internship at Ayn Rand Institute. Julius' h.s. graduation.
2014 Fall/Winter: Go to Eastern Europe & travel Europe while in the Teach and learn in Georgia program to take a break before grad school.

2015................... I'll be 25 by then, turn 26 at the end of that year. P= ...~ I hope I'm debt free by age 25 & that iono lol. Maybe I can learn chinese abroad in Taiwan or work & do my masters part time. :Q.. it would help me save money on living costs & I don't wanna live in the states yet...

I feel like I'm really a "special" kid and get distracted easily. Secretly, I wasn't diagnosed. I have this big curiosity thing though lol.
Right now, I'm gonna go party LOL. err, watch a friend's tap dance performance

i don't wanna fall fast,
fall out of love

a quick look in your eyes,
a glance at what we could be

i don't wanna fall fast,
go out of sync

the soft sound of your voice,
an eternity of sweet words

i don't wanna fall fast,
and regret the past

the glow that surrounds you,
i wouldn't wanna be anywhere else

i don't wanna fall fast,
let's start at "hi" not "goodbye"

-------

damn. the fart i let out staaaaannnnnnnnnnnnk.

and no, the above isn't about anyone. it would be about a potential. i'm in the writing mood again. xP.

I have yet to create that youtube account. :/

Today's distractions went from..

90's kpop search ---> psy's military service ---> tablo's money problems in the past ---> allkpop.com ---> zelo growing taller (from B.A.P) ---> growing taller in mid twenties (guys) ---> to this thread post. LOL

sooooooooo, I still wanna grow taller. LOL. P=. Iono why, but I "feel" taller, only cuz I can stretch again and reach my toes (dunno how that's relevant). maybe if I take vitamin k & d/calcium supllements. 

anywayyyyyyyyyy
