It has been a LONG time since I lasted posted. Totally not intentional. Between spending time with Quinn and working over 40hous last week, conference and Target, I just haven't had time to even to turn on my computer.
It is kinda funny. I have been doing everything that I needed, responding to email and facebook, returning phone calls, etc, just not on the computer. Plus this past weekend was just so long.
I am sitting here in the kitchen doing laundry, waiting for the brownies to cool, doing the dishes and need to update my resume and write a couple of cover letters. All I keep thinking is wow it has already been a month since I graduated.
A cup of strong coffee, waiting for my lunch to finish baking and updating all of email, good Lord. Whoever said you become less busy after school is over is a liar! LOL
We shall see, I am sure that sooner rather than later.
I am filling out FAFSA again so that I may finish my second Masters and not only put off those retched student loans further but also become more educated into something I would like to pursue.
I am sure I need to update this further but I need to get back to doing all the rest of my chores. TOODLES!
I am a librarian, thinker, hiker, political activist, reader and much more living in Los Angeles County, CA.

Still wishing for something better
Ok so I am totally lame and havent uploaded all of the photos I have from graduation. And again I am lame because I havent uploaded the photos from hiking last Sunday. Man I am sounding lamer by the minutes.
But it is hot today. AND(!) its my first day off without work or school or my mother in like 2 months. So as much as I want to apologize about not uploading pix yet. I just dont care enough to think up a good excuse.
HA HA. Plus there are many things I want to get off my chest, but they will have to wait until later.
Peace out!

Oh yeah still procrastinating....
Taxes are due today. At midnight to be more specific. Ah well I kept meaning to file them...But well other things seemed more important like sleeping, breathing, eating basically anything that didnt require me to file my taxes. Ah yes and the best part is, you have to know your AGI from last year to actually file your taxes. Silly me, I thought when Turbo Tax SAID they would keep my tax information for the year I wouldn't have to worry too much. Silly me. I really shouldn't do this every year. But alas I do. Tis sad really. Except while I am the queen at procrastination at everything else have never procrastinated on filing my taxes. Strange how that it is. So now here I am at 11:32 my time, that EST for all of you, trying to get my taxes filed in 28 minutes and I am on hold with the IRS to find out either my pin or my AGI. Yeah cause I am going to remember a 5 digit number from year to year. I am lucky if I can remember my pin number for my checking account half the time.
So now I sit here listening to classiscal music waiting for the IRS to pick up the phone. I promise mine will take less than a minute! Please answer my call!
Alright I am done. Goodnight all!

Still procrastinating.
So I went to a friend's hockey game tonight. He made the playoffs at 7pm and then had the final game at 9:30pm. I actually left the house early today and made it to the rink just before 9:20pm. Which is good because before 9:30 even rolled around they had scored their first of 6 goals. I know I have said this before, but I love hockey!!!! Especially live, men hockey. Their is nothing wrong with women playing hockey. I still enjoying watching it, however the men are so much more ruthless and willing to get smashed up and fight over the stupidest things.
I went to the game. I watched intently. The only time I stopped watching I was replying to a text message from my student about a paper, and that is the only time my friend fell. I felt bad for not seeing how it happened, but not too bad cause he falls at least once a game.
Needless to say, they won their game. It was great. This is the third year in a row they have one the title. I feel kinda bad that no one else but me was there to watch.
At the end I told him I made him brownies but I would bring them tomorrow. I really wanted to hug him in congratulations and I asked him if he did want a hug. His response still makes me laugh, I'm sweating so I didnt think you would want one. Ha ha except he said the Yiddish word for sweating that I know for sure I will butcher and I am sure spell check wont help. All in all a great time. I was asked during the game which side was which, and for the first time I could honestly answer. I am still learning my vocab for hockey but I am not doing too bad. I only hope the next place I move too will have a good hockey team i can cheer for. That and whatever my next job is, I hope it pays me enough to have cable so I can watch sports on TV.
I think that is all for now.
Yay Zack and the Legal Limit! 3 years running now!

Paper from hell
I am writing a paper from hell with my friend Sarah. This paper is going to be the death of us since it has to be 6 pages single spaced. Good God I forgot how much I hate writing like this. The good news: Sarah is really good at giving me bullet points and research and I am REALLY good at pulling off that amount of pages in a short amount of time. Really good. Now if only I could do that for the rest of my life.
As a side note, I just heard that a friend and I should get it out of the way and just get it on. Yeah right. I need more friends. Boyfriends can be sucky, and I dont need them.
Until another time!

Guess what? Yup, still procrastinating.
People often ask what I am going to do with my life? Big surprise, I have no idea. Here is what I do know, at least about myself at the nice age of 25
1. I HATE asparagus, olives, mushrooms.
2. I have two scars, one above my left eye in my eyebrow from my mom trying to give me a haircut at 3(?), and one on my left knee from flying head over handlebars the day before 8th grade started.
3. I want to be a librarian. No discrimination as to what kind anymore. I would love to be a public library librarian, but I am not sure if that is going to happen.
4. My hair used to be stick straight, and still to this day wont hold a curl, but if I don't blow dry it it gets wavy. I really do not understand that one.
5. I am ready for the next step in my life. Wherever and whenever that may or might be.
6. I think sometimes I have done nothing with my life, especially when I am filling out job applications that ask me what publications or presentations I have made and it is nothing. :(
I really should do that homework assignment.

I like procrastination
I like procrastination. I am pretty good at it. For instance right now I really should be working on a project that is due on Thursday or working on a resume and cover letter for a job that I really want. Or I could be searching various databases for information on alchol abuse for a class, or searching youtube on my topic for Tuesday. Or I could be writing my analysis of options that is also due Thursday. See I have all this work I really SHOULD be doing, but alas just cant seem to get it done. I have managed to turn in all of my work this semester early. Mad props to me. I guess. I was supposed to go hiking today. That did not happen. A little sad about it. However roomy wanted to watch a movie tonight so we did. Bridget Jones Diary, did anyone else out there know it was based on Pride and Predjudice? I didnt know that. There is a great line in the movie, "I like you just the way you are." Man I love that. Which brings me to what happened yesterday.
So I like this guy. I took him home yesterday as he is currently out of a car. We are sitting there talking and I told him that my life was not supposed to turn out like this. I wasn't supposed to come to NY alone, not that I am complaining anymore, I am much different, better person. However I was telling him what kind of person I was when I was that guy. And he says to me, I like who you are, just the way you are. I like knowing this girl. He likes me just the way I am. I really didn't register the compliment until today. :)He likes me just the way I am. Confident, smart, funny, sexy as hell, personable. My heart just starting fluttering today. I havent been so happy from a compliment in so long!
On other news, last night I went to an inter-grad department ice skating function. I havent been ice skating in I am not even sure how long. However I did manage to turn around in a circle and never once fall!!! It did amaze me how much of a mom mode I go into however when people around me need help. A lot of people from the iSchool went. Well a lot of South Asian men. I regonized a lot of them and was telling them how they needed to tye their skates so they could skate a little better.
It was funny. I have never actually seen my good friend Wasim as a teacher. He told me a while back his plans to become a teacher later on in life. Well he went into full teacher mode showing people how to skate. It was so cute. He did chase after me and was pushing me into walls. He said I liked it. I kinda did, but at the same time it really hurt. What a meanie. No actually he is a really great guy. The ice skating was a hit. A friend of mine who kept falling down last night now wants to go back at least every other week to the rink to get better at skating. I really dont mind. I never realized, until about 2 weeks ago, that SU even had an ice rink on campus. It is pretty cool. It is free to get in and only a couple of bucks to get skates. I will have to go back and skate more. It is a great workout and definetely used muscles that I forgot existed. So that is a positive!!! Ok I guess I better do some form of homework now. Night!
