Happy Mother's Day!

Look at me, look how terrible I am!



After that long blog of nothing of negativity (which I am always expressing these days) I completely forgot that today is Mother's Day!

Well that is a lie, I already gave my mommy a gift :)

But that is not the point! I just want to wish all the mothers out there, and of course, MY MOMMY a very happy Mother's Day! Mothers are amazing, you all deserve today!

Tick Tock

Wow.

That is all I can say for now. Wow.
It's been a REALLY long time since I last blogged. I suppose there are quite a few reasons on why I stopped for a while. One as you can all guess is that it was because I was extremely busy that I could not keep up with everything. Second, I was litterally running out of things to say and do. Because my camera cord is still broken and I cannot send all the pictures to my computer, there isn't anything visually interesting to show. My life is as boring as a blank page. I suppose I can describe to you what my school is like or something but who really cares? Plus, I'm not so big with all the sites at the moment. I actually never took the time to really advertise it and show my long lost online friends that I am back with a simple blog. Clearly this isn't my number one passion anymore.

I think I first started this blog after a long "hiatus" from online world is because after watching Julie&Julia I became inspired by that! Then as soon as I started, I realized that I have nothing interesting purpose to blog like Julie, who blogged about her cooking.

I also have this pheobia, maybe it was the true reason I quit the online world a while ago. My pheobia is that online people (who I don't know, won't know and probably never will) starting to know me more and better. It just feels strange. I'm always the type that keeps to myself and I have my dirty little secrets too that I refuse to share. No, I'm not a loner. I have friends, as a matter of a fact I am very social at school and in my non-online world. I think it is because online, you just don't know who you are dealing with and the whole world can learn about you if they could. That is one reason I never post my pictures online (other than social networking sites that I'm on with my real life friends) because of the same pheobia. Is there even a scientific word for this pheobia?

Then my sister suggested that I can a livejournal or deviantart where I can really blog and display things that I really like while not giving out too much personal stuff that makes me feel uncomfortable. Great idea, but what am I really suppose to upload? I barely have time to work on my graphic arts. Ranting about life is the best I can do.

Enough about this, just wanted to get it out there...if anyone even cares or is reading this. I am on twitter often though, if you would like to follow :P

Take care!

Quick Easy & Affective

Wow, again - it has been a very long time since I posted a blog! Clearly I cannot find time to blog everyday about something (or possibly not finding anything good to blog about everyday) when I tweet perfectly well!
Other than the fact that my last blog was a failure due to the fact that I failed to position the pictures properly. For some odd reason what ever I tried did not seen affect the positions at all. Then I just gave up and let it be.
I am missing Europe very much right now. There is no place as acient and fashionable as Europe and people are so much more dynamic than the people in North America. I miss the smell from small cafes all over streets and unlimited shopping. The buildings are much better to look at there than here. Even people are much more interesting to talk to. They are far more interactive than anyone else in the world! I deffinately had a marathon of all the pictures I took there and almost cried because I missed it so much. I'm still conviencing my parents to go back there again before I graduate. Why? Because first, I won't be able to afford it when I'm in college because I have to pay for everything then. Second, being there with my family probably made that trip amazing and third, I will be lost. My parents guided me throughout the whole trip so how am I going to handle being alone there?

Anyways, the point of this blog was to celebrate the fact that I have finally finished writing my official resume that I will be using for the next, 3 years or so!
Writing resumes were much harder and takes up alot more time than I thought. What I learned though, was that you want to keep it as organized as possible. Do not center anything and make sure you have proper and clear headers. Some areas its better to keep it simple but other areas such as your experience sections should be as detailed as possible. I think if I knew this before I wrote my resume, it would have taken me at least an hour not the whole day! (Because I had to re-start the whole thing 3x!)

I have also been reading some amazing fashion blogs and http://guestofaguest.com which is so entertaining when you are absolutly bored. Its like real life gossip girl but it involves so much more people and different parties that you can't really keep up with the same one group. Anyways, that is how I spend my boring rainy days.
