I haven't felt that feeling of true happiness in so long. This week overall has been great. I feel so gooood. Its that happy feeling you get that is all natural and it feels like a light breeze is brushing against you. The feeling is so intense.
Why am I so happy?? Well first off, the Contractors State License Board accepted my application to be an Electrical Sign Contractor and I have a test date in mid October! This means I am one step closer to becoming a contractor in California! Please please let me pass that exam!! If I pass the exam, I will feel so complete! Its been two years and its finally here... A short term goal finally acheived... So for the next few weeks I will be studying more intensely than ever. Usually I dont enjoy studying, but in this situation I am honored to.
I got finger printed/live scan today. It was $69 bucks for a 10 minute service, which I think is ridiculous, but its okay... After that I went to PetSmart to buy some medicine and dog food for this dog my dad found. This poor dog, un-named yet, is so skinny and fragile. So our family now has a new addition. I think my youngest sister is so excited about this too. I am happy for her. =) She has been wanting me to get her a dog in forever!
Family wise, I think it is looking up. There have been issues here and there, but overall I am trying to see it in a positive light. I know that amongst all the struggles, we shall overcome!! I have learned to be alot more patient and to just simply be grateful for all the things I do have in my life.
So... I hope this feeling of true happiness follows me on my journey in this crazy twilight zone we call "life".

Sunday Thought
You gotta live your life to the fullest. Be grateful and content. Appreciate every moment, you never know when it may be your last. May prosperity and hope be with Travis Barker and DJ AM (Adam Goldstein). 4 killed in the plane crash and 2 (Barker, AM) in critical condition. How unfortunate.... :( Let our hopes and prayers be with them. RIP to the others who did not make it.............

This Morning
I woke up this morning feeling kinda sad, but I feel better now that the day has begun. I am here at work, ready to take on this new work week. I just bought some sweet tea from McDonald's and that stuff is soooo SWEET. I couldn't drink anymore, I should have just gotten coffee :P
This weekend should be a nice one. With some close friends coming over and Second Saturday art walk, it should be a nice relaxing weekend. I think I am going to check out that Obama Dance Party fundraiser. OBAMA 2008 all the way!! and....Who knows what Sunday will bring? hehe.
Anyways, on September 22, Heroes Season 3 Premiere is finally here! It took forever and a day! I'm so excited. I love that show!! Unfortunately on September 29, I have a Wisdom teeth extraction. Ahh..! I guess they are only taking two out, so it shouldn't be too bad. Yeah right! Chipmunk face in full effect!

TGIF!
Yay it's Friday! :)
It is so strange, but I was physically not at work much this week. But I feel like I did a crap load of stuff. I was all over the place doing estimates, getting permits, paying bills. I handled some work at home too, I don't really mind it.. I think working from home rocks. I should get my own little home office space to get stuff done. Also, Lee is working for me now and this alleviates a lot of work stress that has been on my shoulders. He is going to be a great asset to the company and he is one of the best graphic designers I know! Now I can focus on one thing at a time and not overwhelm myself because I have help. Good help is so hard to find sometimes.
Yesterday was a crazy day, I didn't really make it out to work. I got a call from Susanne at like 6AM in the morning. I was definitely half asleep, but when she told me a taxi cab hit her while she was on her bike I woke right up! I then went over to her place to take some pictures of the injuries. Her ankle is all f*ed up and she is bruised all over. Luckily after we got her checked out at the ER, she is okay! She just has to let the body heal. Alot of vicodin and plenty rest.
Over I learned alot from Thurdays incident......always treasure your loved ones, city police suck big balls, becareful biking when cabs are nearby because they obviously are a danger, and if you get into an accident always always get their name, number, insurance, and get a police report right away!
Life is short. Live it long.

A new month, a new beginning?
Happy September! It was quite nice to finally get a three day weekend. I was able to spend some time with my family, but most of the time I was by myself collecting my thoughts.
These days have been lonely and gloomy. I hope this new month will bring brighter moments.
On Sunday I dropped my sisters off at the Fair. I was going to go inside, but the massive crowd of people scared me off. I was not in the mood to be around groups of people, I think I would have gone crazy. This is the first time I haven't gone to the fair in like eight years. :( Oh well... maybe next year.
So its officially a new month. Last month sucked so bad. This month is going to have to change or else I am going to break something! >:(
I should really try to focus on what I want, a good life goal. I remember wanting to work for MTV China. That would have been amazing, but I didn't fall through on that one. It kinda sucks that MTV doesn't really have a whole lot of videos on the actual station, but they do help the flow of music (may it be good or bad). I guess tv in general is an amazing thing. Now that I don't really have a tv, I just watch it online. Online episodes are free and a good way to go. Also Blockbuster works too. :p
I think what Oprah does is ultimately the best! I would want to be like her with the whole magazine, tv show, book club, humanitarian thing. I wouldn't want it to be ""me me" tho. She sells her "ORPAH", I sell... "MYLAN?" hahaha.. no thanks. I'd want that without the fame.
I will be pondering about my life goal now..........................................
