The Life and Times of Mr. Voto | | |
| Been working on a huge project lately. I’m trying to archive and consolidate all my blogs from different blog services into one place, Wordpress. It’s a powerful thing to read over entries you’ve written in 2001 and see your thought process. It’s also emotional to read over your entries on love, how you’ve lost time after time. So far I’ve brought most of my blogs from livejournal, downelink, and myspace. After this, I just need to bring over my most recent blogs from Xanga and I should have a complete archive up to my most present entries. I’m so excited :P I’ve started to organize topics by categories too such as LOVE, LIFE, RANDOM, ADVENTURES. This way it’ll be easier for readers to navigate to exactly what they want to read. | | |
| Can’t really pin it down, why I was feeling down yesterday. I attempted to nap in the middle of the day to be awaken by my sister’s mother in law for lunch. I finally finished the drama “Fated to love you,” and absolutely fell in love with the characters and story-line. I debated starting a new drama series but I don’t seem to have the energy to spend another 10-25 hours in front of the computer screen. One productive thing I did do was go through my older blogs like Myspace, Livejournal from back in the day and archive my entries. I’ve realized that I have nearly 180 entries that date back to 2001. I started to read some of the entries and some made me a bit emotional. Some feelings and thoughts about ideas just never change whether it 1 day or 5 years have passed. I’m actually proud that I’ve been able to record the last ten years of my life, although I admit there are many gaps especially towards the earlier parts of my journals. I’ve decided that I have to continue writing, and hope to one day personally publish my entries so I can read them when I’m 65. It’ll be great to reminisce about the good and the bad, my love attempts and losses. Been thinking about it all day. I met a certain person at the Pharmacy a few months ago and thought that he was an interesting fellow. Decided that I would add him on FB today but something inside me told me it was wrong. Somehow my principles kept saying that its wrong to mix work with personal matters. I took advantage of the environment (work) and learned his name from the encounter. Is that wrong to search for him, even if I’m not using any personal information of his? Once again, a new year is upon us. Last year, Mariah, Phuong, and I made a resolution to lose weight/obtain abs. Mariah was supposed to lose weight while Phuong and I were supposed to obtain abs by July 4th. Losers pay 100 dollars to the winner. However, time strolled by and we all lost motivation, as with the rest of the nation. By July 4th, we had to extend the deadline to December 31st. Today, we have all lost once again. Why is it that its so hard to maintain that motivation and stick with it to the end? I figured that the high price of losing would be motivation enough but it wasn’t enough. I think that at least one person must be motivated in order for others to be inspired as well. Shall we redo the contract this year, adding more money and people to the mix? Maybe we should invite someone who is sure to win, that way we would all be motivated to follow through as well. We’ll have to see. :P Here are some pics of my beautiful nieces :p | | |
| It’s been more than a week now. I can’t say that I’m crushed. I feel relieved. After what’s happened with family members, I’ve realized that I’ve made the decision that’s right for me and one that I won’t regret. It’s already Wednesday which marks my two weeks being here in Omaha. I can’t help but feel empty as I have to leave family and return to reality; I must face my future as I have to decide what to do with myself; my last semester of my 3rd year is coming to an end. I’ve been catching up on my shopping, went to urban outfitters. There was an awesome sale, 50% off already marked down items, SCORE! I must have bought about 6 items for just 100 dollars. Not bad. | | |
| We truly live in a world where we are brainwashed with stories of love, fairytales, soulmates, and happy endings that certainly don't exist. Its disheartening to do this over again from square one. I think I watched too many Korean dramas. | | |
