Bad news first. I didn't get the job at Michaels. Oh well. That's that. For the explanation, take a wonderful dive down to my Myspace (http://www.myspace.com/nainaismiles) and click the blog "It's July 4th" or something like that. I don't remember. Haha.
Nonetheless, I've recently escaped from a mental trap of my own. But what's stupid is I keep crawling back to the pit that I climbed out. Metaphorically speaking, of course. I don't know; perhaps it's the comfort of the hole, the high walls tha… Continue

Hiya, folks!
My blogs are usually set on private to avoid the excessive sight of the link to my name on the front page. :) So, if you haven't noticed my updates, going to my page and hitting "archives" will get you somewhere. Unless they're diary-setting. But then again, who reads my blogs, anyways, right? Haha. I'd be vain enough to think so. :D
I am currently 19 years old now! :D Yeah, well for about a month, I have been! I was successfully interviewed and am set to start working at Michael'… Continue

This weekend changed a bit of my perspective towards, well, people.
My friend was going through tough times and had to escape the mental trap. I'm glad he talked to me, for I would have never known all those events that happened in his life.
I've finally accepted what was coming to me. So much resistance, but I admit, I can focus on my future if I drop it completely. :) Continue

"Are you waiting?"
"Yeah. Do you care?"
"Not at all. It's up to you."
"Oh."
It's up to you. You make the choice, you don't be a useless, stationary object, waiting for someone to do it for you.
What'll it be? A nice cold dish of avoidance, or will there be a neverending buffet line?
I think I chose the buffet.
It's just a matter of getting to the end where the pudding's lies on a gleaming, silver platter and hoping that it doesn't vanish after the hundreds of people crowd around it.
There a… Continue

They say, "be natural", they say "be yourself", they say "don't worry about what others think!" Well, if I didn't worry about what others think -- wouldn't I be worrying about what you'd think about me worrying about what others think? Uh-huh. You can never escape "worrying about what others think". Simply because unless you live in solitude, you will always be interacting with somebody.
Let's glance at this "be yourself" tirade most people are guilty of spouting out. How come "be… Continue

I took one picture, and it was of Koy. Haha. I was going to take more, but I was too busy trying to not to fall flat on my face, which I did. It's okay, though. For the first time on roller skates, I wasn't too bad. Hahaha. Although, I have roller bladed before -- not the same thing!! Totally different. Haha....
It's pretty hard to get started, but I gradually gained the speed... really, really cool just to be skating around and around and around... sounds boring in words, but when you d… Continue

Because it randomly skips in the middle of the song, try this ah, other file. Sorry, people who can't see it -- namely Dustin! Haha.. Remember Space Jam with Michael Jordan? Apparently, this is the song for this movie.

The brain is powerful. When used correctly, it triggers a plethora of emotions -- whether you desire them or not.
Thinking of recent occurences, the concluding fact is no matter how much our loved ones annoy us, there is always something there that draws us back. Could it be the insufficiency or inactivity of hormones to restrain from such act? Should it be considered scientific? Or is this purely just the behavorial ways of human beings?
Ever notice that when you seemingly feel tension from t… Continue

I've seen this a while back, and thought it was rather accurate of those that typically get filtered through the market in the US. haha. I remember watching Goong with the weirdest, and I mean weirdest subtitles ever. And to this day, I have yet to finish all episodes of Goong. LOL.
This is only part 2, so if you haven't seen it and want to watch it from start, just Youtube it. :D
I delivered my speech today. It was so crappy. I had 1) technical difficulties and could not print out my worksheet, nor could i connect to the #$%@$! projector, NOR could the sound or movie play on the #$@%@$#@#$ laptops I used, 2) I lacked preparation. And people to practice my speech on. 3) I hate wearing professional clothing sometimes. My arms are like Pocky sticks.. except they're more like branches, Pocky Branches, and my upper arm is white as HECK.
And I forgot to bring a sweater or coa… Continue

And nothing else happens. Metaphorically speaking.
This all happens beyond the encompassing circumference that is the boy.
The boy is distant, she thinks. But only because the girl doesn't want to get rejected when she gets too close.
So she watches afar, until it gets too late.
So, if you crushin' on a boy, (or girl), go out there and make the first move! At least you had the courage to do it, even if it is rejection, as the result. You've gained a little humility and lost a lot of fright.… Continue

Always be happy. They say. Always.
But you know, without SADNESS...ANGER...NEGATIVE EMOTIONS, you wouldn't effin' know what the hell happiness is.
Sometimes, I preach all this crap about being happy and positive and I don't even practice it myself. Such a hypocrite.
I am ready to shed my passive shell and be assertive. You stupid, snooty idiots out there, it's time for you to learn that there's more to life than pushing around quiet, shy people!
Sometimes, I hate the human race. Continue

I feel particularly serene today. It's because the weather is gorgeous today. Beautiful sunlight, with a gentle touch of a cool breeze. It's marvelous. I can't wait until spring (even with the allergies) because the flowers start budding, deciduous trees sprout green leaves... It's awesome. Let's run outside and play!
I have a lot of goals plan for this year and the next. I hope to achieve them all. If not, I must keep going until I succeed.
It's amazing how a change of season can change an at… Continue

Holy! I had this blog set for Feb 14, not Feb 15 at 9:21 PM! What's wrong with this thing!! Buggy!
I hope you guys get free candies! Heart-shaped junks, love! I don't know how I'm going to spend this day.
Probably online. :D I have to remember to get off and celebrate it (unknowingly to the parents and whatnot) with family! We're not a Valentine-y family, so I'm a little curious as to how we'd celebrate it.
I hope you will have a valentine! :)
If not, you can be mine! :D Continue

Go to Kingson's page. Listen to his song. I like it. It's nice. :D :D
I have about 40 minutes until my class starts. Japanese is tiring four days a week, but I'm dealing. I love learning it. It's just the studying (which is actually the learning part) that's killing me. I desperately need to learn how to study and not be distracted by CERTAIN people. Just kidding. ;)
I need to make a list of things I have to do -- or think about doing! -- today.
1. Finish FA form for 08-09
2. Job search
3. Ga… Continue

I guess I should go to sleep, seeing that it's nearly one o'clock. But lately, I've some thoughts.
Isn't it awful when you find something you deeply cherish, and then days, weeks, months later, you find chinks in the glittering surface that once struck you as beautiful?
Tough luck, I presume. Whenever am I going to find something that won't wear so quickly?
Valentine's Day is coming up. I don't know what I'm going to do with that day. I've already a blog set for that d… Continue

I have my communications class next. I hope .. oh wait! I forgot I had to put some papers in an envelopeee.. So, I shall do it in thirty minutes... MUST SUCK UP ALL THE FREE TIME I HAVE!
Bubbly is why I'm happy~! I'll tell you why, because 'Bubbly' describes pretty much anything you feel when you're in love. It sounds like a great feeling and you know what? I can't wait to experience it. ^_^
Okay, that and the fact that I was productive today! Even though I had to spend $27 on MasteringAstronomy.com just for my class. But, whatever, I can deal with it!
So I'm bored. I'm obviously on Oneria.com.. And I'm bloggin'. Because bloggin's fun.
My class is in 30 minutes. I don't know what I should do..Probably go buy my transmitter. Yeah. I'll go do that.. or check out the line anyways.. ugh.. i should check it out anyways. the bookstore is crappy though, the line's always bahhh at the beginning of the semester. So many people.. rushing to get their books... I should get my transmitter... Yeah, i think i'll go right after class… Continue
