Need to find a job

Been doing some job hunting lately.. which hasn't gone as well as i've planned. I went to this Soon Dubu place, that had a HIRING sign on their door. I walked in, and the lady told me they already found someone..

Err.. Then freakin take down that stupid sign that say, "NOW HIRING" stupid girl. But i have this feeling they were looking for a girl - waitress and wanted to reject me in a nice way. Bleh.

Went over Pae's house cuz it was close from the Soon Dubu place, and hung out for a while. He said he would turn in a resume for me to work at the bank which is an option i have. I went to Starbucks afterwards to hang out with Nancy and Nathan from BR.. and it was really nice seeing them again. I haven't seen them in like 3 weeks. We talked about all the drama at work.. and the bad karma that we got from there.

Went with Simon to Tom's Platinum auto parts store where they distribute korean manufactured parts here in the US for korean cars. The business has been around for 1 year and i guess it's growing pretty fast. I filled out a resume, but they haven't called me back yet.. doubt they will hire me. Simon says we should check out another auto parts store.. but i dunno.

I also applied for the School's computer lab as an assistant. The website says to give 1 week for application reviewer.. hopefully i'll get it there.. i wouldn't mind working at school.

I went to Hotjobs.com and found a sales job for Canon that pays $12/hour.. which didn't sound too bad.. but haven't sent my resume yet cuz it's done thru a 3rd party that hires ppl. In which case i could be considered contractor that can be fired at will. I'm still thinking about that if the CSULB doesn't hire me. If i can't find a job until Aug. 30th when school starts, i'm thinking of going to the Career Center and checking out jobs there.

I can't wait to graduate after this semester, yet feel a bit scared of what is going to happen afterward. I have been putting some serious thought into moving back home.. but after living by myself for the past 2 years has given me so much freedom and liberty that it might be tough living with the folks in one roof. I guess i'm the type of person that is really independent and enjoy the time i have by myself.

I also might move to Emeryville next to SF and try to get a job at Askjeeves.com.. i'm pretty sure i can get hooked up there cuz my ex-manager from Excite works there and wants to hire me. But who knows.. i'm still undecided about that.

Today, my fan on my GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) (video card for u dummies) was acting up and making noises. So i took apart my computer and checked the inside of it.. and DAMN.. so much freakin dust. It was like a tornado went by inside my computer. I spent 2 hours taking out the fans and parts to dust it out which was a total bitch.. and used little tweezers to take out the dust from the fans cuz it can't be taken apart. It was a major bitch cleaning the computer out.. but i feel better about it. I moved the computer on top of my desk which is coo cuz it won't pick up the dust from the carpet.

Later tonight.. for the first time since like April i went out with my homies to Ktown and hit up velvet room. Nothing has changed over there.. same o same o. I talked with my waiter hyung, and he told me he made about 5g's a month. DAMN.. but also told me it was hard to get a job at clubs. Hahah.. figures. Got buzzed from mixing crown and beer.. danced a little and had a good time. It was certainly better than the old days. Maybe cuz it's been so long i haven't gone out.

NOw i'm home.. and these gorillas are sleeping on the floor. passed out! Weak sauces.. i drank more than them too. HAHAH. I miss the old days.. going to Point with my chingoo and going to Ah Ri Rang afterwards.. THOSE were the good old days.

"i'll pay.. "

"no.. I WILL PAY"

"no no no.. i will pay.. u pay next time"

hahahahahahahah.. y3ah!
