I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something. I will not refuse to do the something I can do.

And the reason for that is because I just really haven't been feeling up to it. I've been trying to figure out what it is that I really want to do, and I simply couldn't come up with anything so I decided to get another job, that way I can earn some money and at least have something to start with when I decide what it is that I want to do. Also, I need to buy me some furniture… Continue
I quit my job

It happened on Monday. I woke up and just realized I would not take another day feeling the way I was feeling; stressed, upset depressed... so I decided to quit. The next day I almost regretted it but my dad made me see that there was no problem at all. My parents back me up 100%. Now I have to look for another job :(...

Monday was a nightmare!!!

So, this is a follow up to my last blog. Monday I went to work, I took calls and it was horrible. I felt like I wanted to quit cuz it was too much. I even cried at night. It was a mixed feeling, not only I wanted to quit, but I felt bad because quitting is not something I like to do. Anyways, next day, even though I felt horrible and more nervous than the day before, I made it through. I made less mistakes, and I was able to deal with it with more ease. Now I have today and… Continue
I'd like to share a little something with you...

I got this job in a call center over a month ago. Training just ended yesterday, so we begging with the actual calls on Monday. I took the job because the calls will be in English, in fact there is a policy in the company where we are only allowed to speak English the majority of the time, so I figured that would be a great way to keep practicing and get better at it. I'm a little nervous though, and that's why I'm writing this. This is my way of getting all that "fear" out of my… Continue
Sucks to be sick!!!
Posted on June 14, 2010 at 5:36pm 2 Comments 0 Likes
So I took the weekend off from everything because I started to feel sick on Friday at work. I've got a couple shoots so far and I'm starting to feel better, and I still have 2 more to go. I hate shoots and I hate getting sick because when I'm finally staring to get on track with my exercise routine, this happens and it feels I have to start all over again, not to mention the fact that I have to go to work. Those 2 don't go together at all. Anyways, it is what it is.… Continue

- About Me:
- Hey there, thanks for stopping by.
To tell you the truth, I am really bad at describing myself. I am very confuse at the moment because every day, I either try to improve a little bit or I get depress thinking that nothing can be changed. I'm not trying to be negative but unfortunately I haven't found the balance in my life. I don't know what I want and I find it very difficult to keep going.
At the moment though, a few things I have improved on in the past few years are:
1- My physical appearance: I used to be 149 lbs (68 kilograms) and now I'm 118lb (53 kilograms). It took me about 11 months but I did it and I've been able to keep it off. I joined a mixed martial arts school and on April 13 2008 I reached the rank of black belt. People say I'm pretty good at it so...
2- I was the most quiet, shy, introvert, low self-esteem person that you could imagine. Now, at least I'm able to talk to people. Also, I was taking classes at my school to learn how to teach and that helped a lot. Even though some days my low self- confidence takes over, at least it takes lest time to get it back up.
3- (update for November 20th 2008) 4 weeks ago, I started on my quest to a healthier lifestyle. I've cut out a lot of crap that my body does not need like coffee, creamers, muffins, milk, french fries, you name it. It's been tough but I've managed to keep it off and I don't feel the cravings that I used to get when around those things. I've added more vegetables and fruits to my diet. Also, I try to eat lean meats. I started drinking soy milk which I happen to love.
Well, so far that's all I can tell you. I'm yet to figure out exactly what it is that I really, really want, but till then, all I can do is keep trying.
- Favorite movies:
- The shawshank redemption is one of my favorites, Life is beautiful, The matrix trilogy, Groundhog day, and many many others I can't think off right now. Basically anything that has to do with self-improvement, eye-opening, motivation and whatnot is what I like in movies.
- Goals/Projects/Aspirations:
- To raise my stamina, have more self-control, self-discipline. Build up on good habits such as helping more in the house, stop biting my nails. To find out what I really want out of this life. Going vegan, although for me, that's still a hard choice to make, but I'm taking it one day at a time.

HeSaid said… - WB Diana. We all were shy once (well I was anyway). I moved from engineering into tech sales, to change this inner shyness. Experience even took me further than I planned. Heck I can even get up and give speeches now. Probably the best thing to do is build several social groups which include strong personalities and study their style. We become who we associate with.

Danface said… - ooo well i hope you do exactly that :) for now you'll be looking toward that bar work you mentioned??
and yeah i think i am pretty sure on what i want, i just struggle sometimes with a way to get it :) if my interview to get into uni over the next couple of weeks goes badly, i seriously have no idea what i'll do. a year is a long time, so to say the least :) it'll be a set back. i guess there's only any use in looking forward though, only things that've depressed me lately are, well one person in particular :) and i don't even know why.
68kgs though :) nice job at losing all that weight! though :P i'm heavier than that at the minute, by a tiny bit.
"better to be fat and fit, than thin and starved" :) don't think i'll ever forget that little saying, sound like you have that in the bag though with all this martial arts + exercise stuff. good luck on the abs! and well :) good luck in everything, can't go wrong there right? :P hope you find what you're looking for, the sooner the better

Marco said… - Hey Diana,
Te agradezco la bienvenida. I'm glad to meet people from the I Power community, specially with a common background! I'd like to visit NYC in the near future. It's a wild city. Finally, I noticed in your profile that you are interested in fitness. I thought you would like the following post.
"It is possible to lose 20 lbs. of bodyfat in 30 days by optimizing any of three factors: exercise, diet, or drug/supplement regimen. I’ve seen the elite implementation of all three in working with professional athletes. In this post, we’ll explore a variation of the “slow carb” diet as used by Dean Karnazes, an ultramarathoner famed for completing 50 marathons on 50 consecutive days in 50 different states. The most impressive part of this, for me, is that he did so, not with the typical anemic marathoner build, but with a well-muscled mesomorph body. (...)"

I hope it's useful! Later on I would be glad to share with you my experience regarding fitness.
Cheers,

yesterday it was the eurovision song contest.I went into a newspapers internett site (dagbladet if anyone is interested) and saw they had a forum for discussing the results (the results where coming in at the time). much of the forum was covered with the comments of two people, both trolls, one in norwegian and one in english. they where claiming that norway lost because we sent an immigrant to the finals (the guy was born in Iran but came to norway when he was just over 1 yrs old), and other…See More
