sooooo...i didn't get through very far in the hawaiian airlines interviews. i was crushed beyond crushed. it felt like a bad break up. i sulked for days. but you know, the littlest encouragement goes a long way. i was watching tv one night in tears and a commercial from new hope came on. the pastor said to keep following your dreams. that was enough for me to be inspired all over again. i don't want to lie on my death bed regretting that i didn't try hard enough to chase my dream...i can do this!
life is good now. i am blown away how far your mind's willpower can take you. it can fight through all sorts of physical and emotional pains. a strong mind makes for a stronger self. it really is all in your head. the sun always shines tomorrow.

mardi gras
boy, this month has been hectic crazy. work has been working around the clock and my social life keeps me busy in between. regardless, it has been an amazing month!
this past weekend was the PCC field trip for yelp! i had a great time with allison and we really enjoyed the men of Ha ;) i learned this really cool story of this mountain formation which i will share to others if i ever drive down that side. it was fascinating lol.
the GAR was yesterday and i did my personal best. 1:25! i ran the entire length with absolutely no training. honestly, it's amazing how far a little mental motivation could take me. i just kept telling myself to keep going and what are my goals, why are you here?! i'm so fricken sore now. i don't remember it being this bad other years but it's probably because i overworked my body to keep going. how the hey am i gonna survive the marathon?! i wanted the GAR to be my time of liberation once again but that didn't happen. i didn't have much more mental capacity left between pushing myself to finish and to contemplate life.
for the first time in my life as legally able to drink, i have no desire to drink anymore. it's weird because i never crave to have an alcoholic beverage. what happened!? it happened after olivia's last night in hawaii....damn, that girl ruined me @_@ maybe one day i'll get it back but i want to ween off alcohol for lent so i guess today's my only day to indulge being that it's mardi gras and all.
hawaiian airlines interviews are this thursday! i am excited because i feel confident but at the same time i have no expectations. i really want this! praying hard for God to guide me to success :)

dreams
happy february!
the month has gone by so quickly! time needs to wait for me to catch up! valentine's day is around the corner and so is the super bowl! i hope i can win my $15 that i have down on the pats. kevin, you're going down with your $5. kthx. also up on the feb agenda is the GAR. i'm so out of shape in running that it's making me a bit nervous. i hope all the cardio i've been doing at the gym will help me in the end.
koko head has been the highlight of my week. i went THREE times in three days. that's the most i've ever done it but that's because people wanted to go with me on their first time ;) i think i'm an awesome motivator...i don't give up on people even if it takes us 3 hours to go up and down. tanning time for me :P
i applied for hawaiian airlines...again. this time i am extremely nervous, i think i really want it badly. i'm also considering applying for the firefighter position that recently opened up. as i was telling my coworker, i believe i have a better chance at getting into the fire dept. than i do at hawaiian mostly due to workplace diversity lol. times like these, shades are necessary because the future is looking bright :)
PS: thanks leon for the hunger games recommendation. i'm really into it although it took me about two weeks to read six chapters lol.
