Of course, I had to at one point. Although saying that nowadays doesn't usually produce a great reaction. 10 years ago people would be celebrating. Obviously my circumstances are different. But wow, I thought id be happier. They let me off early today, hands full of flowers, donuts, and gifts. I spoke with a close co-worker, and she noted how surprised she was that I hated this job. "Everyone in…
at this age, its more like "what are you planning to do?" or "What are you doing with that" as in my degree. That i got almost two years ago now. I don't know! I will never know. I wanted to be a teacher, then a doctor, then I got older. I wanted to be a forensic scientist. And deep down inside, I wish I took up chemistry. It was my favorite science class. It's too late. I cant afford another…
What if i told you that there is a US military weapons manufacture that put Hello Kitty on one of their products? I'd technically be telling the truth. Anyways, I found out that I might be flying to Taiwan on the Eva Air Hello Kitty & Friends plane ! A cute Boeing 777...Imagine. Next time It'll be a bedazzled Airbus. I'm going to be glued to the gate window along with all the children. Big smile…
Original Post. R Writes about how intimidating it is to build your own website. It intimidated me too! It's a level of code that brings me back to my computational linguistics course senior year. I still don't know Python after 16 weeks of learning. However, I did it. On a similar static web hosting service, Nekoweb. Trying to get through my last days of work has been boring, so I finally decided…
I wrote an emotionally charged post in March. It felt like a page full of complaining, which I hate reading myself. But I also wish there were similar posts that are candid about their dating struggles that don't coat it in "It will come when I least expect it" or "Dating [sex] is useless because they ALL suck." It's been over a year since my last date. This is kinda from lack of trying; I don't…
Peep the darker background. And happy July. Not all bodycam channels are bad. I watch EWU BodyCam all the time. I sometimes watch Midwest Safety , but the robotic voice annoys me. For the most part, the footage allows for a real, somewhat raw view of police interactions, which is needed in a country like the US. 1 However, I have two negative things to say about this genre of YouTube video: 1.…
While applying for this visa stuff, I'm seeing passport privilege in real time. I'm handling the paperwork and looking at the Resident Visa Health Check that I need to do. The tests include Tuberculosis, Syphilis, Measles & Rubella, Hansen's disease and Parasites. I only have to do the Tuberculosis, Syphilis, and Measles/Rubella tests. I was vaccinated throughout my life so the Measles and Rubella…
I'm not even a furry, yet I really wanted to go the the US Midwest Furfest. However, it's in December and I won't be in the US. I've been saying I wanted to go for a while now, but I was a broke, jobless heathen until recently. My sisters think I'm joking. I went to the Wisconsin Renaissance Fair last year for the first time. I've never dressed up in public like that before (I never did Halloween…
Alliteration is so fun. Alternative title: my pet peeves For 10 years now , I've cycled through phases of learning Japanese, Chinese, and Korean . Amazingly, 2026 marks a decade of consuming Chinese culture. I’m so used to seeing Chinese characters and I know pinyin perfectly, but I’m still not fluent in the language. :( My main language of study in college was Japanese . I took it for three and a…
Every time I post, I imagine a Disney Channel style crowd cheering. I'm surprised that its already June. My mind had felt occupied. I can't tell if its the taiwan stuff or this new medication. I'm going to ask my doctor if I can wean off. I'm not doing therapy, as recommended, because I gotta save money. So taking medication is a waste; it doesn't work without CBT, according to my doctor. Plus I…
