MMMiii!

It’s not really the first time. I’ve had “jobs.” And I’ve tried exerting efforts on proper budgeting and planning those times.

And I’ve always failed.

So now that I have a real job… I’ve tried. Again. I was successful on the first day… kind of. I wrote down all my expenses and thought about how much I could spend until the next payday. Or rather, how much I want to leave in my bank account until the next payday. But two weeks has passed and I never did it again.

Don’t ask either how much I’ve spent. Not that I went on binges. I bought some important stuff–necessities. Like clothes (if you know me, then you know what I mean), and canned flavored tuna. And snacks. Because buying food outside is not economical. I also gave my mother some money, and treated my friends and family because I promised.

>_< Aaaahh >_< I still haven’t sent Yu’s Package.

orz

ok, I need to start getting ready for work.

Ever had that experience? Coming home from work, going right to sleep, then when you wake up, it’s time for work again?

I haven’t experienced it… much. Just a few times.

And then I started appreciating office furniture like couches in the lounge or the swivel chairs in the rooms and the tables…

But one of the things I’m really glad the place has… carpets. Carpeted floors. We sometimes just lie down and relax, not necessarily sleeping. Just lying down.

~Aaahh work~

Today marks miii.net’s 2nd birthday. Not the blog, but the website itself. miii.net didn’t start as a blog. I just had my blog hosted at miii.net on a different subdomain. But when I started trying to make money online, I moved it to root. Blog is reaaaal older.

Sooooo…. Happiness!

It’s also Noe’s birthday today. Happy birthday Noe~ <3

Well, I’ve been trying to sing this since the first day of the year, but there were a few things that hindered me.

First, there were fireworks until January 2. And they really kept on booming in the background. Second, because of the smoke from the fireworks and the change in my work schedule, I developed a cough. Third, I went somewhere. Fourth, I had work. Fifth, my sleep schedule was totally effed.

So… Finally, last night, I was able to record it somewhat properly before getting drunk.

And here it is… Chiisana Tenohira from the game, CLANNAD. I like this song better than the dango song.

Chiisana Tenohira
Original Vocals: riya
Composer: Jun Maeda
Romanization: guuchan

tooku de tooku de yureteru inaho no umi

chiisana te ni mo itsukara ka bokura oikoshiteku tsuyosa

chiisana te ni mo itsukara ka bokura oikoshiteku tsuyosa

chiisana te ni mo itsu no hi ka bokura oikoshite yukunda
yagate kuru hi wa atarashii kisetsu wo hiraita

The year 2007 has passed and I welcomed 2008 more excitedly. The past year has given me a lot of experiences that has allowed me to be where I am right now. They weren’t all happy experiences but they weren’t so bad either.

I must say, however, that I feel like half the year passed by so swiftly, I hardly felt it. I can only remember tidbits here and there of what I’ve done in the first half of the year. But who cares?

Notable things that happened last year:

• I met BokBok and Poknat, the chow-chows. I liked dogs, but I learned to REALLY love dogs last year.
• I walked home from school for a month and a half. I’ve always wanted to do that again, ever since I moved to another place. I used to be able to walk home from my high school. Those were really fun times.
• I changed plans–a LOT of plans–for someone, and sometimes I wonder if it was really worth it or not. I guess I’ll just say that… it was a memorable experience.
• I became a teacher, aside from being a student. I grew up a little, at the same time overcoming a little of my shyness. I’m not so shy anymore. But still am… a little.
• I received FLOWERS! Bouquets (3 I think?)! A huge teddy bear! And a whole bunch of chocolates (20 boxes… lol). For the first time. I really felt special those times. Too bad I didn’t write about those times on this blog. But yeah, I guess… I’m the romantic type. I liked the feelings I had when I got those. Albeit guilty.
• I learned to accept people as they are. I learned to forgive people for pretending to be someone else when they’re not. Loving and accepting people with all their flaws and mistake. It’s sad that it didn’t turn out as well as I expected. But like I’ve said already… It was a memorable experience.
• I was able to get some of the things I wanted. My mp3 player, which I’ve earned by myself, and this MacBook I am currently using, which was given to me after wishing for a laptop for almost forever. It wasn’t exactly what I wanted, but I’m thankful nonetheless. I’m currently loving my mac.
• I opened a bank account! And saved.
• I’ve bought clothes this year more than what I’ve bought for the past 10 years.
• I was able to hold a huge amount of money–cash!–at one time. Well, it was huge for me. Hopefully, I’ll be holding a bigger amount in my hands someday. XD
• I started buying groceries for myself instead of letting Papa buy them for me.
• I started earning online.
• I got a pet dog. I gave one away. One of the dogs here died as well.
• I had a lot of cables chewed up by my puppy.
• I got a job. It’s not a teaching job. It’s a call center agent job. So what if people think lowly of it? I must say that it’s really hard work dealing with people and everything. It’s a lot like teaching, except that your customers are your students and you get a longer time to build rapport, unlike in CCs.
• I finished studying. And I’m going to graduate soon. Actually, I think it has become official already last month. I need to drop by on Thursday.

Hmmm… I probably missed some. Oh well.

2008 is the year of the Rat. That means this is the third time for me to live in a year of the rat. >.> Go figure.

Plans for 2008:

• GRADUATE! MARCH!
• Study Japanese seriously somewhere.
• Review for the Licensure Examination for Teaching (???) (LET) and take it???
• Diet >_>
• Accomplish something.
• Get a new cellphone.
• Upgrade my PC to at least twice its current performance.
• ^ To be filled out someday. The abovementioned plans were just the stuff I’ve been planning to do since last year. Who knows, I might start planning something else soon. :D

Well… That’s all for now.

I may have been really depressed this past holiday season, but I’ve decided to let go of that with 2007. A new year, a new beginning. The past year wasn’t so bad, but I do admit that there are some things I wished that never happened at all. I made some a lot of mistakes. I wasn’t really that good of a person.

Jaa… Sayounara, 2007. Tanoshikatta wa.
