Carwash, etc.

Hi eich-tee-em-why-tee-you-ers!

I'm back!!!

I wasn't able to update on a lot of stuff about the past week, so here I am, at work, blogging about my life last week. Fun.

Anyway, last week wasn't a blast, as usual. It's actually kind of a blur to me right now. I feel that time passed rather quickly, but nothing productive REALLY happened.

Well, the first meeting of PBL commenced. I had a major test in advanced accounting, which I bombed-- 82 isn't my best grade, you know. But, on the bright side, I had an 81 in intermediate accounting and then jumped to a 98 on the second. If I do that again, my 3rd exam would be a make or break one. I think I did badly on my third one last semester. Dumb moments.

Now let's skip to Friday. I learned what my grade was. A.S. and I went to the theatre meeting because it was beautiful and dry outside (unlike today). On Saturday I went to Shady Maple Smorgasbord with J.P. and her boyfriend. That was an interesting outing. I concluded to my self that he's kind of not my kind of person to be close friends with, but I'm glad he and J.P. get along well. Plus, I met J.P.'s wonderful parents.

After that I went to the carwash with my club at Metro Bank in Wyo. Fun, fun day--and I'm not even sarcastic. We washed about 14 cars, and it was worth it despite the heat. M.C. and I grabbed cold drinks at Starbox (pun). After the carwash, AS, PV, and I went to Burger King and ate almost nothing (french fries and some drinks). We just chatted the whole time we were there.

MD and I texted. He's a douche, as usual. I'm not even sure why I try to be friends with him.

Anyway.. this entry has to have a part 2 since I'm busy. LOL.

Gotta go. Part 2 coming up.

Week Recap

This week is finally over (I know, Sunday is the first day of the week technically, but cut me some slack, I can't rewind time). I'll just have a quick recap of my week:

Day 1: I was with the crush in one room -- coz we work together (the possibility of someone seeing this is 0,  since no one here really knows that I have a blog, not even my closest friends-- and nobody here really likes reading, anyway). I didn't have fun with the crush because we had jobs to do.

Day 2: I read for my friends' scriptwriting class. It was fun. I totally almost ruined it because I was too pissed with a person whom I dare not text or talk to ever! (I am being childish, and that's not what matters anymore. Being a douche, even with a dose of humor, isn't really on top of my list of nice). Plus, I found out my math quiz grade - 14 out of 25. Not the best day of the week.

Day 3: Still kinda thinking about the day before. The implication of this is bad. Lack of focus and lack of motivation. I went to the Theatre meeting today, and I heard that the Dr. Nate was being difficult in one of his classes. He's been so impatient lately, and I'm not really sure why--I'm glad that I don't have to deal with it much. I also learned that M.G. doesn't like bananas.

Day 4: Math test! I think I passed that. The week improved on this day. The guy whom I got pissed off at wasn't around. He was in our second class together, but I did not interact with him in any way. Mr. K told that I seem to have been slacking this semester, which I don't think I am, but I am lagging behind because of some reasons. I diagnosed myself as having senioritis.

Day 5: I handed in my Klooster stuff. Unfortunately, my numbers did not balance for some reason. It makes me wonder. I have to check what I did wrong someday. Not good at all since I was the one who told J.A. what to do.

Day 6: Leadership Conference, and four hours of work. I was alone for the most part, but TR was there for the first hour. At least I had someone to talk to for an hour. The pasta salad wasn't good at all. Tom the speaker was awesome though. He made me want to live in New York.

Days 7: Today. I did all my written homework for tomorrow. I need to do some studying.

I guess that's it for this week. I hope to have a better week starting tomorrow. Not my turn to drive, but it's all good.

I want to thank Kitkat for the words: quidnunc and sesquipedalian. I've been using them for some time--not many chances to do so though.

That's all for now. Wish me luck, person-who's-reading-this.
:-)

Adios.

The Search is Not Over, Just Postponed

I am currently working on my Strategic Management project that is due on Monday. I am almost there, but I do not know what else to do, honestly. Then I have the Corporate Finance exercise that I have to submit ASAP as well. Argh. It is another tedious thing, too.

A Funny Thing Happened-- at work today

So I worked 3-7. It's a Monday. Ideally, it should be a great work day because of-- reasons. However, for some bizarre circumstance-- I am not satisfied.

There is this one thing that I asked the Divines for-- and that one thing I asked was definitely not going to happen. Eh-ver.

If only I had a Plan B... Ha! I don't have one, so poor me.

Actually, I fibbed. I have mixed feelings now... I don't know if it is a bad thing or a good thing to have a change of heart. My brain says it's a GOOD thing, but my heart says it's not... OR is it the other way around??

Hmmm...

I wonder.

Anyhoo... I don't have any news for you other than I already handed in my graduation application... YAY me! And, that I... don't have anything else to say.

Word of the day: quidnunc - noun - means busybody --or knows everybody's business (?!)
Whatever.

PBL

Hey, folks!

I wonder if my Alvernia peeps (friends) are reading this. Well, in case you are: Lemme give a huge SHOUT OUT to all BUSINESS MAJORS!!!

There will be a meeting at BH 213 2:20 pm on September 21st. We still have more than a week to go, but just in case you're reading this... might as well remind you.

I am the historian for PBL Acad Year 2010-2011:

I am in charge of the annual report at the end of the year, which we present at the state conference, and of course, hope for the best that we win again. We usually always win, but because I am a jinxed child-- you know the rest of the story. I will try my best, however.

Okay, for upcoming projects of PBL:

We have none yet, that I know of, so far except for the upcoming car wash on the 25th. The venue will be the usual Metro Bank @ Perkiomen Ave (I believe-- but I should check with them again).

Upcoming major events will be announced at the first meeting, the officers, current members, and current advisers are looking forward to a fun and exciting year of PBL 2010.

Thank you so much for reading this entry.

Signing out,
Historian- Maria

The Project...

Strategic management project: Costco Wholesales, Inc.

I am trying to put it together, but I realized that I have a lot more to learn. A LOT.

I have no idea what I'm doing, and I'm pretty sure that I won't be able to figure it out by the end of the week.

I like projects like these, though... if only I were sharp enough.

I need a mentor. I badly need a mentor.

What am I doing now?

I am currently working on my Strategic Management project-- Costco Wholesales, Inc. I think it's fun except that I have no idea how to put it together.

That's all.

Update

Dear Peeps,

Bad news... I failed a Math quiz. It's just a first, but I'm getting there. I need to really pay attention this time.

Love,

Maria

Why am I even here?

I've been in front of my PC for hours now. Suddenly, questions like: "What am I doing?", "Why am I here?", "Why do I keep staring at my facebook page?", "Who am I looking for on FB?" pop up in my head.

Sheesh...  I wanna stop the insanity.

Haha.

Actually, I'm just trying to let my thoughts of my work crush go. It's still kinda stuck in my head. It's not even funny. I'd rather not like anyone than not be productive at all.

And, here I am again...

Actually, that's not true. I like liking someone except that it's too annoying.

I. Am. Annoyed.

Right now, I wanna sleep, but my brain isn't letting me, so what should I do?

Stare at the ceiling until my eyelids close.

Sarcasm never solves anything, but it can be funny sometimes.

I have to study my Spanish because I have a quiz tomorrow.

I am going to sleep and shut up now. :)

Thanks for reading!

High school days...

This is not literally about high school days...

It's about me acting like a high school girl (or even middle school girl) today. The. Whole. Day. HAHA

Me, raving about my new crush: work crush! And, me, getting all giddy about it.

It doesn't help that someone announced it in my accounting class. Ugh. The humiliation!!!
I hate him right now! hahaha... (a loving-kinda hate... hehe... we're like family)

Anyway...

My resolution is: tomorrow... I am only going to rave about my new crush to two of my best people. :-)

Jess and Trevs. That's it.

I need to stfu now because I talk too much. I'm gonna be found out! Not that I mind, but hey... there's no thrill being found out. ;-p

Love Lots,
Mariaaaa.

I want that job!

On another note...

I'm not lagging behind my acads. So, that is not the reason why I'm succumbing to society and its perks.
I'm just saying that I'm letting go of my uptightness, and plus! I have a dream job now!!!
I want it badly.
Public accounting firm, I adore you!

What firm, you ask?

I'm not really sure if I could disclose it, really. It might just jeopardize my chances of a job there. I'll name it after the application process. :-)
I'll be handing in the requirements tomorrow, and then the waiting starts! :-)

Ugh. I don't like waiting long. :-(

I'll keep yah posted!

Reiterating...

Ngayon ko lang napansin:

I've been blogging about the "new ME" for several entries now.
I just realized na it's beginning to sound like a broken record.

Sorry, folks, I don't mean to. It's just that I keep forgetting somehow.

Peace out, though!

<3

Crush

Thank you, Portia, for the idea of 'code names'. = )

It's a wonder why I haven't thought of code names when I was once a code-name girl myself back in my elementary days. Almost everyone had a code name that only my friends and I knew about. Those silly girl moments. Now that I think about it, I think it'll be fun to go back to those days.

That aside, I have a new crush. His name I won't disclose for the fear of exposure (LOL! no one ever reads my blogs!). However, from this time onwards, I'm gonna call him: "work crush"

I couldn't really call him "office crush" since it's not technically an office, and I don't feel my work to be an office. I could, however, call him "desk crush," but that doesn't appeal to me. "Work crush" is a more straightforward term, and I could easily have a crush at work and outside of work.

Okay, lemme describe him for a bit. Well, he's obviously someone I see at work. He's nice, he has a nice smile, he's cute, and he seems smart-- and quiet. I seldom find guys like that-- the last ones were my last two exes. HAHA. Obviously those didn't work out.

After a period of time (3 years), I haven't been interested in boys (high school vibe much). I keep dodging relationship questions and stories except with my closest friends: Cath, Jon, AC, Jolly, Jay, Cha -- to name some. Now, I'm ready. Like I said in my YM (Yahoo Messenger) stat: I'm way past the yellow light and I'm now done with the red...

I have crushes now. I welcome hints. It's like being in high school--except I've never flirted in high school.

So, that said, I'm welcoming a life that fits me. I'm 20 for Pete's sake! I'm done with "setting aside," and I'm off to "where life takes me."

:-) And now on to my next entry...

Graphic Designing

I need to set some changes and personalize my sites.

Someone really needs to teach me graphic designing!!!!!!!!! :(

My Brain's All Rusty...

It's all in the title -- my brain is not functioning well, but it has been getting better.

I love my brain. My brain is my buddy, but can be annoying sometimes. We have this love-hate relationship, but I am working hard to make this relationship work.

I'll write again soon.

Love,
Mabelle
