time is a tickin'... i only have until august fifteeth to figure out what i am going to do with myself, living-wise, ie move back home to lalaland or find a new place or... rent a room? nah, i hate moving. i can't believe it's been like 90-degree weather these past couple of days... it's like an oven in our apartment, where i spend most of my time now, job searching. jen, derek, bryan and i are going to start swimming on mondays and wednesdays and also ballroom lessons tues and saturdays. maybe i can get a weekly tennis thing going, also, that'd be good. today i was supposed to try cardio kickboxing for the first time but the teacher didn't show, then we ran out of time and didn't make it to berkeley ironworks :( no rock climbing.

i think i am way too anxious/stressed these days. partially because all i hear is bad news from my working friends about finding a job. like, 2 months is not enough time to find one, i have to go through connections/networking and not resumes... it's just one bad thing after another. not to mention trying to find affordable housing around here, which would be the next step. I know i have to lift all of these burdens up to God in prayer, but i seriously need to pray to increase my faith and trust first, to believe that the prayer will work.

i got a finger-picking guitar book with about 12 songs from Moe's that's pretty good. it has "wedding ballads" which sounds all cheesy/corny but there's some good stuff! like "in my life" from For the Boys, and "i swear" and more.

the friendster thingy is so weird. so addicting yet so pointless. and the weirdest part of all is that i am getting friend invites from some acquaintances, people i have seen maybe a few times and never talked to! like i know who they are, but i didn't think we were "friends." o well, it's prolly a fad that'll die down soon enough.
