My mom, bless her heart is the kindest phrase I'll use, is trying very much to get me to go out, make friends, go on a date, get a boyfriend, marry, have kids, preferably within the next 5 years, before she dies. I tell her, in every way I know how, I hate going out, I am okay with the friends I already have if need be, I don't like guys enough to ( Read more... )

I think I am still in a sad and depressed place that I can't seem to get out of for years, but I think I'm also doing a lot better since I've changed jobs. No one really thanks me now, but no one yells at me either, and I think being left alone is what I really want out of a job. Too bad the CEO and top people want to change that, but oh well, it ( Read more... )

First Christmas at the new house, set up a tree and everything! My mom came over to spend time with us, and we were expecting family of a pharmacy schoolmate to visit, but it began to rain and sleet and snow and they had to get back to Houston, so no go with that. The house was all clean and ready to be seen, too, but alas, not this year.

Monday I went home to take care of my mother who seemed to have contracted the stomach bug, probably from her boyfriend whom she had to take to the ER, presumably when he was visiting her. So like a good child, I brought her medicine and refreshment, ate a snack and then bought take-out for my brother before going home and getting her car back from ( Read more... )

I've been busy! But I got last weekend off to hang out in Austin with Cat for the day after her birthday and also have a tea party and it was super fun and broiling hot at the same time. We ate much good food, however, that means little coming from me who works all day and never gets lunch breaks so therefore any food tastes good.

I did not get to see Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter Saturday because we had a previous engagement that I forgot about, I guess we'll try again this Saturday. But I did get to see Brave with Chris and Lori and it was extremely enjoyable. I had mixed feelings about it at first, the few scenes I saw looked pretty cliche, at least by that point in ( Read more... )

My cousin was just asking me if I had a boyfriend yet and I'm like, lol, why does everyone persist in believing in the impossible. My mother hasn't given up, but she has no idea what to do, as I don't like the Vietnamese people she knows, nor the white people, and if I don't like respectable, hardworking people, then that is the extent of what she ( Read more... )

My mom, who knows me so well, says the reason I'm so depressed and angry about my job is because I never go out with friends and distract myself with company like normal young people do. Venting to my brother is useless because he just vents right back at me and then we work ourselves into a frothing-mouthed frenzy ( Read more... )
