Rain, Rain, and Rain

OY! There's a lot of rain around here for couple of days. Lucky, I get to sleep in and my favorite thing to do is snuggle in bed and knowing there's raining outside.

Of course, we go nuts by staying in the house so we decided to eat out, today. Turn out, there are several spots have at least one foot of water height and other are about 2 inches high. Oh boy! That doesn't looks good. So, we decided to go drive thru fast-food resturant and come home instead. Mom and I order Taco Bell and Dad order humburger from the burger resturant (not the common chain resturant. It's different one.) Dad don't like Taco Bell. Mom and I do.
;-)

We got home and ate our dinner while watching weather channel. Possible flash floods and tornados and blah blah blah. According to weatherman, it will be like that for a whole week. OY! Oh Boy! I couldn't believe it. I hope there wouldn't be any flash floods around here.

Oh I do have pratice of the play tomorrow evening but I dunno if I'm be able to go or not. So, wait and see about that. I already email to the director so she'll know. Even though it may not be necessary but still I would like to let her know, anyway. There is a rule that suppose to request a permission for one person to go with you to the pratice so, I already did request that. Ihope that she'll respond cuz it is sorta last minute. I did email her in the evening.

I finally manged to memorize the first several sentences... Now I need to memorize the last few statements.

Well, anything else new?

My parents are doing fine. Oh, my mom did asked me, "How do you feel about moving to Alamaba(sp)?" I said, "go for it and... I will continue to stay and go to school here. I will come home to Alamaba(sp) on vaction times." Of course, my mom wants me to do that by staying here so I can finish my degree. I got so use to move a lot, anyway. So what?!

Of course, I would miss my friends... espeically someone from Missiouri. But don't worry, that wouldn't happen in next year and a half. So, we will have a chance to meet again in few times, if the time permits. ;-)

Oh, we were busy decorting the house and changing things around until my mom finally satified the formal living room. Now, we are focus on formal dining room. As well, we are focus on Guest Bedroom and Guest bathroom, that is including shower with tub. It's big bathroom and small guest bedroom. However, it's still nice and simple. The only thing we need to do is change the curtian and clean the bathroom. That's all.

Oh, since my friends are not be able to come on Aug 1st, I decided to postpone my last day of working until Aug 10th instead. So that way, I can have the extra money. To prepare for next several weeks.... and getting ready to go back to college and Memorial Day Weekend (or is it Labor Day Weekend? I couldn't remember. All I know those are Mondays day-off.) On that weekend, I would go to Atlanta. Whoo-hoo!

:-D

Busy!

I've been so busy and I could not able to go to that convention and workshop for the deaf.

Plus, I have no luck finding another job. At least, I straighten out the schudule. That's all that matters. Soon, I need to update my schudule and I will make sure it is unavailable on certain dates, too. That's including Weekend. I'm not working on weekend, anymore! If they put me on that working day, I will be blunt and said I'm unavialable and I've written down 2 weeks before. I'm sorry that I can't be there. Good luck for replacement.

It felt good to be home. It's nice to be home in the evenings. I enjoy hot meals dinner with my family. It's nice.

I finally able to swim.. Twice so far. My parents had swim several times. I missed swimming already. I know I'm free Monday and Tuesday so I'm going to take an advantage to swim, too. *smile* Hopefull, there isn't rain much. It has been raining on my off-days. That's another reason why I couldn't go to swim.

Speaking of busy, I better get back to do my errands.

Lost in Time

Wow!

After 2 years, I finally decided to contact someone whom I fell in love. I still do. That person had chosen to married someone else. I can't believe it. The reason why we cut off the connection is because of miscommunication and lack of understanding. Why in the world I contact that person after 2 years? It is because I felt there's unfinished buisness still hanging around in my heart. Plus, I felt ready to contact that person after I finally know who am I and gain my self-confordinant(strength). So, I did contact that person. I never thought I did but I did it.

Funny, that person was shocked and didn't think I wouldn't contact ever again. After few days, that person contact me and that's when we start discuss. I missed that person so much. It was great to hear from that person. After a long time of discuss, we decided to be best to be friends.

Part of me wishes that person would come and running but deep down, I know that will never going to happen. Yes, I'm disappointed. Yes, I did greive. Yes, I did cried softly and alone. My mom didn't know. At the same time, I felt so much better and more at peace, now.

It is diffcult to see someone you loved is in loved with someone else.

Floods

Wow! There were floods up in North Texas. Thank goodness, it didn't happened here. (Thanks to you, Dear God, for watching us.) Surprisely, the floods are not far from our home. There were a bad thunderstorm last night here. A real bad, the power went off and on ... then off and on... at last, it did turn off for a little while then back on. After a while, the thunderstorm started to quiet down. Oh, our swimming pool is overflowed, too. I mean there's a water on the patio from the swimming pool. Thank goodness it didn't flooded here. OY!

Speaking of Thunderstorm, I was in my bedroom with the door closed. I left Reese in the living room with the gate closed to prevent from her to coming through. Last night, seem like scared Reese shit out of her because she did knocked down the gate. According to my mom, she did hear the door bumping (their door is closed and go to their, not mine. Seem like she knows I'm deaf). My mom said that everytime there's a thunder sound the door was bumping. My mom thought that it was thundering shaking the door but it was really Reese, all along. Poor Reese. I should have known. I would let her come in my room for short time until the storm had passed. If she sees me calm then she is calm. I think that's why. Well, now I know.. from now on I will do that.

Well, I'm wide a wake from the napping in the afternoon. It sure felt good to stay home and do nothing for a day after I've been extremely busy for last few weeks. Just stay home for a day is wonderfully relax. Tomorrow and the rest of the week will be busy .... Again! Haha, I have to be careful of what I wish for sometimes, huh? Again, it's worth it. I feel more alive, somehow.

See ya later!

Don't taken for granted

Ya know what?

My mom is a big on "talking to EVERYBODY". Doesn't matter who... men, women, children, black, white... No matter. She talks to anyone. My mom told me that she spoke to one lady in ladies room. While mom washing her hands and the woman using curling iron to re-fix her hair. That lady was a manager by day and witress by night working the same resturant for 17 years and she's a single mom.

I was like... Oh boy! Don't take things for granted. I'm having luruxy life, right now. In fact, I'm off all week and going to pratice at the play. So far, I work one day a week and again next week. Oy! (Thank You, to dear God)

Speaking of pratice at the play... I went to pratice same scene... and I said "damn" again... when I suppose to say "freezing" Ugh! But afterward, I got it. I have to be careful.

Last Saturday pratice, it is different scene. I didn't memorize this time. I read from the book. Just like everybody else is doing it. Now I know what to memorize and this time I know I'll get it right.

Oh here's the funny part, There's crone voices and... doctor voice. Right after I said, "Good-bye, Annie" The Doctor is suppose to say the next line... for some reason that guy keep forgetting. He stood there and waiting for us to say something. The director told him that he suppose to say this line. He said, "oh!" blah blah blah... It is the same thing over again of the next pratice. (normally we pratice 6 times over and over. That's it.) He still made the same mistake. After I said, "Good-bye, Annie" I looked at him and pointed a finger at him, his face expression was like oh, that's right, I'm saying the next line.... "blah blah blah." I do not memorize his line. I memorize my line. We pratice again, the other girl (who's Crone number 2) she pointed finger at him, too. Hahaha. I laughed at his mistakes as well I lauged at mine. pppfffttttt

We all are not perfect.

Oh by the way, there's another deaf lady finally showed up; however, she knows... no sign language at all. She look like almost same age as I am. She's a massage therepist and she having hard time dealing with clinets because of her "accent" I can tell her "accent" is really not so great voice... It's more of....very much deaf person's voice. I was surprised that she managed without sign language. Deep down I know that she's strugge and I also know that she doesn't realize that because she grow accustomed to it for long time. It is best to use sign language when talking to costumers because I notice that they will be more open and say it more clearly. They seem will try to work with you as willing to meet half way with you. That make it a lot easier. If they don't know that I'm deaf, I notice they tend to be thinking that I'm rude when I'm not. It is easier that way for hearing people to know that there are some deaf people are working.

I felt sorry for her as well to a lot of deaf people who raised oral and never knew sign language. Part of me that I'm glad that I learned. Even though I did raised oral but it is best to combine. Teaching oral and sign language are the best thing in the world but that's just my opinion based on my experience.

:-)

Stress and Smile

(Look like I do have time to write this)I know I do. I'm so stress. I'm so nervous about going back to school as well pratice at the play. Even though, It wasn't the real play until July. However, I'm still nervous. I'm going to pratice again this coming Wed. I'm nervous.

I'm so nervous about going to University. I'm tempting not to go but deep down I have to because I want to and I want to graduate. Part of me don't want to go and part of me do want to go. *sigh* it is only about 2 months. I have to be patience and keep on going. Time will fly so fast before I know it.

You know? Everytime I feel nervous, I just remind myself to smile. I notice when I smile, it gave a booast of self-confidence and the nervous seem to reduce. Plus the smile helps to relax me. It works for me.

I can't believe this is summer already. The spring had gone. I wish there's some way I could.... Well, go back in time busomehow know there"s no way to go back in time. Time seems no longer slow, anymore. I wonder what the world be like in next 10 years as well as 20 years.

Today

At work, I found out that there's a new schudule for next 2 weeks. I checked. I found out that I'm working Wed and Sat. I can't work that 2 days. I have already written down I'm available only Sunday and Thursday. I decided to speak up. I spoke to the teamleader. He said that I must write that down two weeks advandance and I told him that I did. He was like.. Huh? So we went to look over the schudule. I told him there's written unavialdable those days but not on Wed and Saturday... but I'm unadvialable those days, too. Seem like they mess up with that. Because I only said I'm available ONLY Sunday and Thursday. That's all. I didn't say this is not my fault they put me in on Wed and Saturday. I made that clear I can't be there. (period) So, He did contact two different people who will take my place. Finally, he got it for me. I was relief. Pat my back for stand up this time. Pppffftttt. He also contact to the lady who put the schudule on computer to fix that so that way it will be until July 13th. The schudule will change, again. If somebody mess that up. I will stand up to it, too. I will not put it up with that anymore. I will make sure that I'm clear about my schudule of what I'm available and what's not.

Finally!

$$$$$$$

Funny, I just realize, everytime, we make plans to go to Mexico for vaction (or any places for vaction) or going to Georiga to visit family. My parents and I ended up talking about where to put our pets? How can we afford for their place to stay? Etc and etc. It ended up it's all about $$$$$ Money. Every subject of planning to do something is usually ended up $$$$.

I realize, we didn't go anywhere because of our pets. How in the world can we do for our pets??

Anyway, What a long week?! OY! I'm still busier as ever. So chances that I might not be able post blog as much as often.

Speaking of the play that I'm invovle, there's a word "damn" in the script. I was told to follow exact words from the script so I use that word "damn" People and kids were giggling. I was like... Well, what can I do? My director told me to use "freezing" instead. Again, I made a mistake I blab on "damn" instead of "freezing" until the last pratice, I finally get the word "freezing". There were still giggling every time I use the word "damn" Geez, I wish I was told before I memorize it. It makes it easier if I do. That way I wouldn't be making mistake and blab on "damn" word. *grin* Well, I do know that we are humans and we do make mistake. I do not like the idea of blab on cursing words front of kids. Oh well, seem like the kids know somehow. It was very interesting experiences and I met a few people along the way. One lady I had hard time understanding her, I found out that she have accents and she's from Noriewign(sp). There's a guy. After talking to him, I found out that he can be measiouvious(devilish) in him. He's cute. Oh, there's volunteer interpreter came. I was surprised that she's there. I didn't expect that. It was very nice of them to contact interpreter to come over. It is very helpful. I also found out that there will be newspaper about me in the play. OY! I was thinking, I'm getting famous, now. Haha. I mean, I was in newspaper in Kiderngarden(sp), High School, beauty paragent(sp), Internship, and now this. What's next?

There's so much to do this summer. I have dr appointments, VR appoitment, School appointment, Reese and Tom-Tom's vet appointment, I have other appointments. I have many different things that cramed up this month. Can you believe? I sorta wish I didn't postpone my previous dr appointment. Oh I have another appointments(did I mention that already?). I feel like there's a cartoon train in my head that said over and over, "I think, I can. I think, I can. I think, I can. I think, I can. I think, I can. I think, I can. I think, I can. I think, I can. I think, I can. I think, I can. I think, I can. I think, I can." Why in the world I pick the most busiest moment in my life is this summer? Why don't I join the play last summer, after all, I didn't do anything last summer. Only thing I do was swim, swim, swim, swim almost everyday. This past month, I only swim one day. That's it. Just one day worth to swim. I couldn't believe it. Hahahahahahahahaha. Oh well, at least, I did enjoy my moments last year summer and even just one day swim this month. Oh, it is only June the 8th so, there's a time. I hope.

********************************************************************************

I'm so glad there's re-run shows. Sadly, Stargate haven't finished up, yet. Because it suppose to start March but postpone to April. Now everything postpone for this month to finish. Guess what? I missed my favorite show tonight (which is stargate), already! Well, there's always re-run.... and there's a chance for me to buy it once the DVD comes out. When life is busy, sometimes, you just have no choice but to miss the show but the show must go on and so do we.

Live goes on and on and on and on and on and on............... For some reason, I know I would enjoy this summer.

Honey

I rememberd that about a month ago, I did have allgery popped up. My nose was runny and sore throat. First thing, I did was drinking Lipton Green Tea with cirtus bottle. I notice how that drink really soothing to my throat. When I stop drinking, my sore throat came back so I kept on drinking and drinking. I kept on buying until end of the day, my sore throat was gone. I was so glad. Plus, I did take allergy medication for my nose before I know it, I feel so much better.

I realize I didn't drink that bottle so I decided to buy a pack of 12 bottles. By the way, it contains honey, too. According to my mom said that to help the sore throat it is highly recommend to have honey/lemon drops. No wonder, plus the green tea has highly antioxidants, too. Tonight, I feel so much better already after drinking 3 bottles. It's worth it. My nose and throat are getting better. My energy is coming back. From now on, if there's a slight possible of allergy popping up, I will get those quickly as possible. So, that will help heal up quickly.

Speaking of honey, back in the acient times during egypt, there's a man named Imhotep. He's scientist himself. According to the Explorer channel that I watch, he wrote down everything for medical. Archology did found many bones that had been repaired back nicely compare with others that doesn't. Imhotep used honey over wounds. Honey helps killed the baterica. I learned something new about that. That attract my attention.

Anyway, I missed work for couple of days as well as my first day of rehersal because of my sinus infection was affecting me. I couldn't funcution. Of course, I have a lot of rest and sleep for couple of days helped to build my immune system, too. Thank goodness it was shorter period. Sometimes, I really don't like longer period because it does bored out of my mind. Flu, I wouldn't be bored but sinus infection, I'm too bored to stay in bed and yet I don't have energy to get up and do something.

I think I'm ready to go back to work tomorrow. Maybe a little bit late to be sure I am not so weak by then.

Speaking of work, I better get to bed, early.

Allergies

Don't you hate that?!? I do! Urg, when it comes so much rain, I mean it was pouring for nearly few months. I never thought this is TEXAS could be rain so much here. So that means.... Mold's pores, Oh Gawd, I'm soooo allgergic to mold's pores as much as the dust. How can I breath that thing? Well, for one thing for certain, I couldn't sleep last night. None of the allegry medication is helping me... WAHHHHH. Yeah, poor me, I couldn't sleep. Nose runny and sniffing and stopped up, I couldn't breath. When I breath thru the mouth, it will get so dry.... Okay... enough with that.

I went to work today still feeling gorggy and tired. I still keep on working and working. Until my team leader told me, go home early. Of course, I had my eyes wide open unexpected that my TL told me to go home early. HECK!! Why not? So I left at 9pm tonight.

Thanks to that sweet TL. He's really a sweetie and very kind but sometimes he can be a flirt, too. Still, he's a sweetheart and very understandable. I'm so lucky to have him there tonight. I wonder if he notice how tried I was as well as hard worker. *s* That Sweet TL is usually take his time to explain things that I didn't know about. Others TL didn't explain and one/several of my co-workers act like they don't know anything every once in a while.

Like I said, that sweet TL let me go home early. It is very nice!
