Getting excited.......
You know what. I get excited over things quite easily. You might say that i'm quite easy to please but i'm not sure if that's even a good thing or a bad thing. as you all may (or may not) know, the only thing i'm looking forward to as each depressing day goes by, is my damn vacation in november which always seems arms length away.
lately, i've started planning the tokyo trip. I gotta say, the more i research.. the more i look at the tourist attractions.. the more i read about everything.. it just gets me so freaking pumped up! I have to admit. i expected myself to be there with someone.. but as we all know, life just never works the way you plan it. but thats okay! i'm happy about it right now. i think i need this. for myself.
i plan on staying there for 5 days 4 nights. at least tentatively for now i am. i'm tempted to stay 6 days 5 nights.. but im just not sure if there is enough for me to do. i only have so much money in the bank! bahaha. i'm excited to just splurge and spend a wholee lotta cash on myself and just treat myself. i work hard. i deserve this.
like my mom always says.. you only got one life. might as well make good use of it. you sure as hell can't take money down to the grave with you.

Welcome back.......in japanese!
Just when i thought was an all time low point in my life. A lady in her 40's or 50's picked me up on the subway.
here's what happened:
i was busy chit chatting with a friend on the subway back home from slaving today and this lady stood right beside us. her overhearing our conversation was quite inevitable as everyone pretty much only had 2 feet of personal space anyways.
i chatted away with my coworker about our work, a bit about renting and mortgaging houses and the usual what did you do on the weekend stuff... but sometimes interviews just happen in the most awkward and random places.
after my coworker got off at eglington station, she sat next to me. she started asking me about what i did , told me that she worked at a law firm and how she thought that i was still in school. she told me that i had a positive attitude and that i seemed like a perfect candidate for her husband's company. naturally, i asked what company her husband was in, and she said that it was some kinda marketing firm that was expanding from the US to Canada. They're looking for individuals who weren't willing to settle for a job. she only asked for my name and my cell phone # and said that if her husband was interested, he would give me a call.
i guess the whole point of this was.. it was flattering. to feel wanted. and to have nice things said about you and to be appreciated. something i guess i haven't felt for awhile.
in the end, this whole thing may be a scam, or maybe she just wanted to talk to me. who knows.
all i know is.
what do i have to lose.
