See-Sawing

Da Da DUMMMM~

I called HR in SF today and it turns out they're looking for people with at least a years worth of experience. Why am I not surprised? But HR did say a possible informational interview. I told her the dates that I would be in SF (May 2nd-16th) and hopefully she'll schedule something.

Not that I wouldn't go for an informational interview-- but I'm so ready to fly to Taiwan. I'll see what happens by the end of the week.

April Showers Bring May Flowers

I can't believe its almost May!!!

An update on what's been going on in my suburbia life:

1. Celebrated Jason's bday at his house on Friday. The boys played endless rounds of video games while the ladies (and Jeremy/Josh) conquered the mah jong table. Mah jong nick names were given and thus heroines were born! (I'm just being silly)

2. Celebrated Miss Hong Kong's bday on Saturday by having dinner at FX McRory's and gettin jiggy with it at Club Element followed by food intake at Purple Dot (where we saw other clubbers from Element).

3. Housewarming party at Johnny and Clara's two weekend ago where Mr. Siu Lah Ba had the audacity to pinch my left nipple in front of Clara's mother. (tsk, tsk...shame, shame)

4. Cathy, my "korean" friend who's actually white, introduced a fellow Red Hawk that's working in advertising down in SF and there might a possible job opportunity in the works.

5. Let's say for reality sake that SF doesn't work out, my back up plan is Taiwan! Shouldn't be too surprising for some folks since I do tend to leave every 4 months or so.

6. Campuspoint sucks ass. I applied for this entry-level position that I'm actually qualified and met all the requirements but they rejected my resume. I don't understand cause I got an interview with the same parent company but different subsidary last month--and its pretty much the same position. Hmm...maybe that's why my resume got rejected.

7. Pilates is kicking my ass, not shaping it!! Been kinda lazy and haven't ran on the treadmill for a few days. I need to get back in the groove of things. 60kg!!!

8. Last but not least, being the doofus taht I am, I accidently dropped my car keys down the elevator crack at Rianna's. The most annoying thing-- The elevator maintenance people come once a month, if they call them in just to retrieve my keys, it'll cost extra. What the @#%!

That's right! I'm the new spokesmodel for the all new *Acid-Free/Photo-Safe* Glue Stic

Who's that girl...

Winsor Pilates

The Juang household ordered the celebrity recommended Winsor Pilates couple weeks ago. It came in the mail today and my sister and I decided to try it.

Boy did it kick our asses! My abs sure felt the burn but I think my ass was numb from all the squeezing. Let's see how many inches I can lose!

Day 1: 20 mins

Tv.Eat.Tv.Eat.Tv.Sleep

Sunday's are the best! For me it's the one day that I don't feel quilty for doing absolutely nothing.

Breakingnews: It was Miss Hong Kong's birthday yesterday and she didn't tell anyone!!! GRRR!!!! No worries, we'll celebrate her bday this coming weekend--along with Jason's. Another weekend of birthdays.... I don't think I ever experienced something this crazy before.

Interview with FCB Monday--I think.... gotta check with campuspoint.

MP3 player

I had no idea my mp3 could charge when plugged into the computer!! Who would've thunk? Gee Alice, you're not crazy after all!

Another absurd moment

"suite" is not the same as "suit". No wonder I didn't get a response....

Compliments of sorts

An excerpt from Mi Ryung's email.

"You'll never be a mean girl. You're too damn diplomatic."

I've been called many a things, but diplomatic? Rrright... On second thought, is that even a compliment? o__O"

Dictionary.com

Mistook "obscurity" for "absurdity". Oops~ how absurd of me. Ha Ha Ha...

Cocoa Butter

I Love Cocoa Butter from The Body Shop!!

Blockbuster Online

Bridget Jones's Diary 2 came in the mail about 3 weeks ago and I still haven't watched it. It's one of those movies that if it's lying around I'll ignore it but once it's gone I'll want to see it. Life's a hoot.

My uncle emailed me yesterday letting me know that I have a tax return check in the amount of 1000NT waiting for me in Taiwan. That comes out to about $30 US dollars. Quoting Marlow "Hot Damn".

Marlow's trying to recruit people to visit her white ass in Shanghai this Summer. She landed a Summer internship there and is enticing folks with cheap beer and kareoke. I'm sold as long as I have free lodging.

Interesting....

Sign of old age

Another weekend out and about. I had spent Friday evening with Sharon and James. It was actually one of the best low-key moments I had in a long time. We had dinner at Indochine and harassed Tien while she worked. Afterwards we went to Barnes & Nobles and while Sharon studied Cell Biology, James and I read magazines.

There's an awesome book called "The Angry Little Girl" and the Asian girl character is literally depicted from Tien's life. 2 thumbs up!

I was going to keep it even lower key Saturday nite, but a couple guys called me up wanting to go out. So I rounded up some people and boom, we were off to Element. I think I pulled my back while doing Heather's famous drop it like its hot move.

Celebrity of the nite~ We saw Ray Allen of the Seattle SuperSonics at the club! No wonder we're on a losing streak, these guys need to be at home resting... and I think Seahawks QB was there also? Interesing....

Century Ballroom

My first time salsa dancing in Seattle--boy, was it a workout! Those middle aged Mexicans sure have stamina! I was spinning, twirling, stepping on toes, being stepped on, gettin it on with my bad self, etc throughout the nite. But it definitely makes it more fun if you know the steps or have a middle aged Mexican dude dragging you across the dance floor.

2 thumbs up!

The Mef

I need to take a cue from The Mef herself and live her motto "I enjoy my life..."

April 1st

The beginning of another month... I have mini-tidbits of news.

1. Last day at PLP. I got a nice little surprise in the form of check! Thanks PLP crew!

Oh, how I'm going to miss being referred to as "Janet", re-enacting scenes from House of Flying Daggers, bugging the office folks for work and bringing in weird ass food from Chinatown. It's been a great 3 months.

2. Cousin Jimmy's getting married in October! Time to book a flight down to SF.

3. I got a "I got lei'd in Hawaii" shirt from Josh. (I'm wearing it now.)

4. According to Tien, I'm a ho~ Like you're the one to talk!

5. I remember last years April 1st. I got duped twice by Janet. I wanna see how you're going to fool me this year, sucka!!

6. Happy April Fools Everyone!
