Supp, fuckers ( Read more... )

So, I have a bunch of mushy bullshit to talk about.  Please bear with me while I make no sense.

So it seems like it's very likely I will have a visitor in Indiana while I'm over.  And honestly, it wouldn't surprise me if things there began to head in a serious direction.  In fact, I want them to.  I can say that I am infatuated as all hell and there ( Read more... )

So I've been mad quiet since I got back to Tucson.  Lemme fill you in on a little secret on why's that: it's because there's nothing to fucking do in this place.  Well, there's the occasional movie watching with Anders, and there's pokemon league, both of which are good.  But that's literally all I got going for me.  The ridiculous thought of ( Read more... )

My time in California is done and I'll be in Tucson sometime at night.  It's been one hell of a ride, a hurricane of thoughts and emotions.

As you know from my last entry, I had some difficulties during this trip.  For those of you who didn't read it, the tl;dr version is that Fetz and Yumi thought a racist joke would be a funny thing and it made ( Read more... )

    So for those of you who are not in on it, I quit my job this week.  This job helped me have an idea of what I'd like to do and what I honestly don't.  As you might've expected this job fell in the latter.  But I feel reassured by the fact I was able to live outside of academia for a while, that I was able to do something other than an aspiring ( Read more... )

You know, life in the USA has been a roller coaster of emotions from day one until now.  I can't recall a moment here that has been particularly dull, whether the dullness would've been welcome or not.  I guess that I should be thankful for this.  Some people go through their lives, day in, day out, without experiencing the joys and thrills that ( Read more... )

Still surviving outside of academia.  I left 2 weeks ago and today I got what was my first full-time job offer with CITI.  The job looks interesting, dealing with mortgages and helping people work their way around the housing market in the US.  If nothing else, that will be very useful knowledge to gain.  The pay is decent and the benefits would be ( Read more... )

Hey peeps.  Shit went down the drain.  Long story short, I am no longer in grad school. I've decided this is not the place I should be in and that I've chosen to make the difficult decision of moving on; while I will technically be on leave, I find it unlikely for things to change enough to convince me to return at the end of the year. As it stands ( Read more... )

I hope you've had a good winter break and a happy new year.  I don't know about you, but I'm still in holiday mode, particularly because Puerto Rican holidays are not officially over until the octavitas on January 8th.  I plan on celebrating el dia de los reyes magos on the 6th and going to Albuquerque for the weekend to the Pokemon City ( Read more... )

Christmas, that American holiday, is once again upon us.  And I have to say, staying true to that, this has been a very white christmas.  I had never spent a Christmas with an American family before.  That was definitely a shock to the system.  The kids got more gifts for Christmas than I got in two years worth of celebrations combined.  Not gonna ( Read more... )
