Got a phone call and e-mail from a job recruiter to work on game translations and in-game editing for an online gaming company. I obviously can't do it but I figured someone off my f-list might be interested. The contact information is beneath this lj-cut and feel free to pass it on. Thanks!

Finally home after a long day and am now relaxing by watching Big Bang Theory. SO CUTE AND FUNNY! ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif)
ecompk got me all of the first two seasons and now with my desktop set up in my room, it's like I'm living the college apartment life! (Again.) Yea, I'm a loser. I want to play L4D but I know I should go shower. Watching aimless television shows lets me lie to myself and pretend I can stop at anytime. Ah ha ha...ha.
Busy busy week. There's a Star Trek Exhibit in town! Can't wait to go and see it! Rest of this month already sounds crazily busy and terrible and I'm trying really hard not to think about it. I thought this week would be a good calm before the storm...but yea, things may not work out that way. I'll have to see. Did go to a Chinese beer pub at Diamond Plaza yesterday with my crazyalcoholic cousin. She had me sneak out the rest of the sake in my purse. At least she was sober enough to text that despite us getting home around midnight, my aunt still managed to beat all of us out by returning home after 1AM. All of us under 35 are put to shaaaaame.
Cousin-in-law gonna be living in LB next week so that'll be interesting. Then his parents are back from the motherland in December. Ahh...I'm already feeling the mental apprehension there...

Finally re-set up my desktop in my room with the new wireless card. Everything seems to be working well so I have the ability to watch stuff in my room without having to deal with the laptop screen again. Weather here is rather cold as of late; foggy mornings like a thick broth makes no one want to get out of bed. Had a terrible afternoon when I managed to hit one of the poles in my parking structure while coming back from the store. People? Don't drive when upset or distracted, lol. It's not worth the ugly dent in your car :(
Taking a break from cleaning to scour through that thing called Facebook. Looking through a lot of old friends' pictures brings up a lot of good memories. Also makes me miss a lot of people. It's strange how fast time flies and yet at the same time, this week may take forever to end. I'm sorry to anyone who reads this if I'm the one to blame for falling out of touch.
On the completely unrelated RL front- checked my bank account. I'm so bloody broke. Sob.

Ahhhh, need to stop watching Korean Dramas. They suck you in!! It's like there's a mental wavelength of narcotics going on! And then I get angry and start yelling at my computer!
...This can't be healthy for my relationship, lol. I need to stop imagining real life in these dramas. orz
Cooked Nong Shim ramen for dinner. My tummy is bloated from all the extra water I added for soup. I didn't have anything to throw in so I "borrowed without intent to replace" an egg from the grandparent-in-laws (MY COUSIN'S, NOT MINE). They've been coming home around 9 these days, thank god. Less to worry about. Found a frozen wonton soup that K bought me a while back. Hello tomorrow's lunch at work!
Work is alright lately. Been distracted with trying to find another place to live so I've been in a flighty state. Still getting my stuff done at least. (Hope I don't get fired, but then again, I'm always hoping that.)
On a loose-ended tangent, me and serious trust issues. Is it normal for people to get jealous so easily? Buh. I have a hard time figuring out how to let things go. That forgive and forget thing? Man, forgetting is so bloody hard!

Now I understand why Meredith finally broke down and told Derek, "Love me, choose me, pick me!"
Because people can really be retarded sometimes. What we want, we're afraid to ask for directly. We toe along the mental line, asking without really asking, using inferences and hints and suggestions to try and get across what we really want. And then when it doesn't go the way we want, we can only be miserable and wonder "what went wrong?" "what could we have done differently?"
Sometimes though, it just comes down to, 'what if I had said it exactly as I felt it'? But see, the problem there, is that we're afraid. Afraid to trust (anyone, again), afraid to love (deeper, harder, more), afraid of being the one that will be hurt (the one left behind). We're afraid of so many things in life that this fear soon drowns out all the other words and feelings in our head and hearts (simplicities) and that fear becomes more encompassing than the love or the truth or simply the words that we really mean to say.
Don't be afraid.

tsururu gave me this shark for my cubicle. It has a top jaw you can pull back and teeth that you can push into the jaw. You keep trying to push all the teeth down until randomly the shark's mouth will slam shut- in which case you better hope you have good reflexes and pull your hand back fast enough. It's currently the amusement of my office. So far I've had one of the judges, two of the lawyers and handfuls of co-workers on the west wing play with it. One co-worker got "bitten" 3 times in a row. So funny to watch! I want to film it and put it on youtube, haha!

Not hacking up a lung anymore but still easily exhausted by things like walking downstairs. Washing two bowls. Putting on my work clothes and make-up. Lol. It's never a good thing when you finish dressing for work and think "Whew! Time for a nap!"
...I have been evaluating my RP lately (Mentally mind you, my online life is pretty non-existent with this flu.) And it sucks. Majorly. The problem I have now is that I've been gone so much and out of touch, it's hard to jump back in. Relationships have moved on, new plottys have evolved and I struggle with my lack of GIANT CHUNKS OF TIME to devote to all of it. This makes me sad. And hopefully, it will be corrected soon. So guys? If I'm a fail at playing my casts, I'm sorry. I really do love all of them dearly, but alas, I have begun to learn that growing older just means you start losing on the amount of free time you have. :(

Man. Sometimes I wish I could move home. Just for a few months to save up money. Sigh.
Everything costs money nowadays. I think I caught the flu, yesterday I just felt a bit like gum on the bottom of someone's shoe in the middle of summer. Today, I am a bit better (i.e. fever went down) but I still am still ARGGGGH.
Let's see how long my bottle of tyleno lasts. I think I have one more serving of nyquil. It sucks to be sick, people, especially when you live paycheck to paycheck. SIGH.
