Summer was good.

2008-08-01T18:37:49Z

After school ended, I pretty much stayed in Austin. I found out I passed all of my classes, and I got 2.23 GPA which i expected it to be. I went to Destin, Fla on vacation with the family, it was fun but unfortunately I discolated my pinkie toe on my left foot. I really had a good time. I have been chilling around, and Yes, still working for D&S residential services, but i am thinking about quitting the job, because i have not been called on since April. So we have to see what happens. School starts in three weeks, so hope i will have a good semester by then. After the fall semester i will have 8 classes left, so almost there to the end. Everythings good here.

Farewell until the next post :)

Hi folks!

I am back and I am finished with school for the semester, and it was pretty struggling for me, and I am more likely to pass all of my classes, important thing is i will try my best for the next semester. I found out i will have like 10-12 classes left, means my goal is being accomplished : to get my AA degree which means its really happening.

I made a huge decision which I am going ahead with Cochlear Implant Removal, means i will have my c.i. out from the surgery. The reason i decided to go with it, because it has been causing me headaches and it is not good to take advil almost everyday. I called the Dr today and hope the Dr can squeeze me in soon as possible before the insurance coverage expires in July.

Summer Plans:

Surgery??

Florida Vacation from June 14-21

Probably visit some friends and family.

will keep yall updated. :-D

It has been a while since i updated, which was last may. A lot of things has been happening lately, after school was finished, i pretty much stayed in austin, chilled around, saw my friends. I went to Galvestion wiht my family for the memorial weekend. School started in august, and i was doing pretty good, and i am pretty much am busy with school because of my major which is child development. I might finish that major by 2009 or 2010 depends how much courses i have left. This week is my spring break and i was thrilled to have it but ugh, going back to school on monday, but there are eight weeks left. whoo! My sister just had her baby in July, her 4th child, which is a boy named Colin. There has been speculations because she isnt sure if he is deaf or not. My fmaily is doing good, theyre just busy with their lives.

I realize that i will be 25 this summer, and im already in my mid 20's and life is just too short and I am glad that I am able to finish school soon so i can have a degree and find a job that i really want. Speaking of a job, I just got hired by a Company which is called D&S residential services which i work with deaf adults clients at a group home. I only work on weekends and only if a staff is sick, ill sub for them. That is pretty much about what have been going on.

Until next post. bye :-D

Since last update, I have been doing good, and I just had my spring break, basically stayed in austin, did some homework during the break and went around austin to see downtown, etc. Nothing exciting really. School is halfway from being done in what, six weeks left, and soon there will be assignments that has to be due, and april is the month to do many homeworks as possible as we can, right?

I have been wondering about one thing lately, as all of you know, I am majoring in Child Development, and i am working on my way to get AAS Degree then today i saw Texas State University recruiter and i asked if there was a prorgam related to child development for Bachelor's Degree and she said yes, then later on I realized that i see people who have a BA degree, wants to work in their major but dont have a job related to their major while they work something else like working at food store, or being a houseparent at a deaf school or working in some odd jobs instead of having a decent job in your major field. The question is Should i have BA or AAS degree? If i go for BA degree i am afraid to work in a place that is not even my major field if you know what I mean?

Besides that it was great to see a friend last weekend, and also i found a video blog which a woman wanted to change from ASL to People's Sign language and when i watched the video on youtube, the woman is definitely crazy even she is deaf and she cant change ASL period. If you havent seen it, i can give you the link. ASL is the power of deaf community, and anyone cant change it.

:) Have a good night!

About Dating life:
I am not seeing anyone right now, and yeah i know it has been a long while since i was in a relationship, and i am going to let it flow. There are some people that thought i was with my ex girlfriend, Lark which i am not. I am tired of people assuming that I am still with my ex fiancee or my ex girlfriend. I am happy with my own life now, focusing on school as much as possible to get a degree in my major:) I am happy to have friends who i have right now.It is important to have fun than getting in a serious relationship plus me being a full student.

Thats all for now. Take care Ox!

time to post

2006-06-26T20:43:50Z

It has been a while since i posted,
things has been going crazy,
been stayin at moms for almost 3 weeks due to getting stuff fixed in my apt, saw my bro past this weekend for his bday,
he is twenty-five which i feel like he is gettin old,
we went to a mexican restaurant and had the best fajitas,
came to moms had a cake, and he and his gf and my sis and her hubby went to 6th st and partied all night, while me and sarah had to watch his doggy which is a boston terrier, a daredevil but cute.

On his bday which was on sat, had a seizure at my sis's,
then almost had one in his gf's car on way to dinner,
then he was okay until yesterday he felt so sick,
prolly from drinkin alot,
then mom decided to take them out to lunch,
then came to moms then wnet back to sis's to get their stuff, while on the way, he had a seizure which it was bad for both seizures.

I hope hes doin ok.

I know i have been posting about him lately, just that i really care about him so much and it has been hectic since five years since he started having seizures in 2002. But i will post about random things anyway. I have been in his shoes because i know where he is coming from though.

Besides that, im enjoyin my summer, and my bday is next week! Cant wait!! Im lookin for jobs and bascially enjoyin the day as it goes.

Have a pleasant day!

:)

Immaturity

2006-05-26T04:40:46Z

People has immaturity in them for example...

when it comes to me and a person's issue and that person's spouse get involved?

YOU DONT NEED TO GET YOUR SPOUSE INVOLVED, and it aint your spouse's business!

You arent adult enough to confront me, and im really embrassed to be friends with you,

you have a pattern of having a great job then quit then that cycle keeps going and going,

and you are complaining that you cant find a job, which you were supposed to have a co-op after you graduated,

since it has been two years after you graduated, what you have done since,

got married too fast, and got a job then suddenly quit, and complains that your spouse cant spport all by himself,

and why dont you damn find a permament job and stick with it and you were supposed to help him, and you asked for the

truth, and i gave it to you, and i was being blunt with you and you get your spouse personally involved,

which you specifically said you did not want to get ANYONE involved. I feel like you have multiple personalities.

MARK MY WORDS: FUCK YOU..... and for one thing i dont sell my body ok?

ah, i feel so much better

bye!

WHY???

2006-05-10T17:51:34Z

DAMN YOU, THE SEIZURES WHY DO THE SEIZIURES HAVE TO COME BACK?

My brother dont deserve this,
he got 3 yesterday,which got 2 today,
which one of the seizures form yesterday was at work,
hit took everybody at work to hold him down,
hes at home now besides his gf could look over him,
he has been clean for almost a year from seizures,
why come back??

It could be fatal,
my mom called the dr and havent heard back,
mom will keep me posted,
he is a brave man,
My guts say he might have surgery,
wish this didnt happen.

Im free from seizures for life,
but why now for my brother?

It sucks.

Bye!

hey how would you feel if someone havent talked to you about what their problem with you but yet decided to tell someone else instead of talking to me straight?

To you,

BACK OFF! I dont care if you are standing up for your friend, you havent changed, and fuucking back off and i dont give a fuck if you changed because seems you havent changed and stop butting in my business!!

go to hell will you!

bye

My lord

2006-04-20T22:32:55Z

To anyone of you who read this,

How do you feel if your own f**king husband says mwahhies or smoochies to girls even the husband says it means how are you and that person want to say mwah for saying how are you?

Women hate a man whos married and go ahead says smoochies and mwaahhies and its considering flirting right?

To you,

Tell your husband to back off and i dont give a shit if he has experiences of marrying twice, but the words like that is considered flirting and ASK any girls who r single and ask them how they feel if a married man tells words like that and they will feel the same thing i feel.

so have some f**king respect, and once i said dont talk to me like that, and means stop talking like that ok?

THANK YOU.

bye!
