March E.'s Blog (6)

Things that need to be done...

 Although my job pays on average 12 -15 dollars and hour, I don't think it's worth it. Firstly, it is not stable. Sometimes I stay there for 8 hours and get maybe 30 or 40 dollars for the night. I really hate that. Secondly, it's waitressing. I hate waitressing and I work there for most days of the week now. Third, (although this is a minor issue) they keep asking me to smile 24/7, but I'm an honest person. If I don't like something, my face and my body language will let you know. I do not…

March's Challenges of the Week :D

Getting money is easy right now so my challenge of the week will not be about obtaining money. I will actually have three challenges. One is to ace that job interview with the Dean of Computer Science Department at my university. The second challenge is to produce artwork. And the third is to finally post a vlog. I will not say what the vlog will be about. It's a surprise. I will try to do all of these with the little time I have while working more hours. That will definitely be a…

Upcoming December Plans and Paper Cranes...







Lately, I've gotten into the habit of finding strategies for "gamifying" my life and everything I do. I found one method that seems to work pretty well for me. First, I list the main long-term goals. They branch out into little goals throughout the…

Some Progress :D

It's my second week of real university *finally.* I was admitted late and didn't get to make it to the earlier orientations and had to pay the late fee, which took out quite a chunk from my bank account. At least I have a grant from federal aid that will definitely help me out with paying for my education. I swore that I will not be taking out any more loans.

Uni is actually nice. They have a place where they will fix your laptop for you for free which is better than I can say for the…

Recent Events...

Ever since I busied myself with work, I've had little time for other things that I would like to do such as volunteering, projects, blog post, vlogs, and some hobbies of mine. Working sucks. I used to tell people that we have everything so there is no reason to be unhappy. Truth is, we do have everything, but we have no time to enjoy what we have because we are working all the time to pay bills, to stay afloat financially, and loads of other reasons. Working hours and hours in a cubicle. No…

Dealing with Anger...



 Lately, I've been feeling like I've been through a rollercoaster of emotion. In other words, I've been feeling emotionally strained. Maybe it's how I think too much about things. I don't know source of these emotions that I feel. So I decided to keep track of the emotions I feel on a daily basis. I would feel a little bit of joy and sometimes sadness, which are dominated by anxiousness. A majority of them fall under Anger: irritation, bitterness, frustration.

 Anger is tiring.…

Matt Watt replied to Matt Watt's discussion What's the difference between good and evil?
"Dualism of subject-object metaphysics is like a prison for the mind. The best way to tackle issues like morality and values is to start with the nature of thought. I think this pretty much sums it up, great way of looking at it."
