It has been one hectic September. My mother has fallen ill, which turned out to be ascending colon cancer requiring an emergency surgery to remove the ruptured tumor. As she recovers, the market collapsed, sending the market into a never ending downward spiral. My sociology class predicting a daily doom scenario, my boss' seemingly lack of regard for starting on time and indifferent attitude towards work is giving me a heartburn. Clinical rotation is putting me in doubt as if I am getting adequate preparation for the next year's license exam.
Met someone in school who seem to care about anime/manga... (and her first approach was, "日本語ですか？") She is planning to do some kind of cosplay at the end of the semester, and I could tell that she wanted to ask me if I was interested in that. Heavens... anything but cosplay ;_;
Foliage is at its peak right now. Watching the leaves falling down, it is breathtaking sight everywhere. I wish my friends were able to join me to enjoy this scenery.
School:
Attending, and feels bit out of sync.
Well-being:
Munching Sun Chip as I write this.
Job:
Weekend store hours shrunk due to ailing economy. Store merger coming in November.
Reading:
Book: Crest of the Stars (again)
Manga: Karin (by Kagesaki Yuna)
Watching:
Angelic Layer (I tend to favor the series with instrumental scores. Hence the reason why I watched Princess Nine so many times. Not so much for the story, but the shear greatness of its soundtrack)
Code Geass (Very odd series, that clashes with traditional setting as the main character isn't very likable, and I really cannot stand the opening and the closing songs)
Playing:
Little Big Planet (Until Sunday, when the Beta testing ended)
F.E.A.R. (I haven't enjoyed FPS in a long time)
Two Cents (one four hundred trillionth of our recently approved bail out package):
You don't always need a reason to NOT like someone, but it sure is nice to have some kind of legitimate reason. I found a such person for the first time in a while, and I just do anything to stay away from her.
Lots of people were (and still are) angry at the bail out package. They argue, "it's the only those rich traders getting screwed, so why should we pay to save them?" Alas, the aftermath is showing up already, and more jobs will be lost. My parents, with their outstanding credit score couldn't get a small loan to remodel their 30 year old kitchen. Expect to see your loan application getting rejected until the economy improves.
