  • Hit all six article deadlines this week between my internship and college newspaper.

    President of a communication company (a former reporter and editor) sent me an e-mail to tell me one of my articles for which he was a source was "thorough and informative."

    Having a personal dance party for the next 10 minutes before I start calling sources for the articles due next week.
  • Welp.

    Go home, guys. He won. It's over.

    Good job, though! I don't have any debts, but I've seen my parents' faces when they get debt free, and I tell ya, it's a sight to remember.

  • @Cooper's posted some pretty sensitive stuff on forums, or at least that's what my scarred mind's eye leads me to believe. But congrats!

    I have some pretty exciting news. It's not really exciting for any of you, but it's something I've been working a for a long, long time. 

    I made some mistakes when I was younger and accumulated quit a bit of credit card debt, and on top of that I bought a brand new car in late 2007 (2008 model, literally brand new - when I got it it had like 50 miles on it). In 2010 I was finally able to start paying more than the minimum payments on my credit cards. I finished paying them off in early 2012. I opened up an IRA account at that time and started to put a little extra money in there. 

    As soon as I get my next paycheck and my tax refund money back (15th on the check, ~21st on the tax refund), I will be able to finish paying off my car - 10 months early. Then, I will be completely debt free. I don't normally talk about personal things - and I certainly don't share such sensitive information as this often, but I had to say something. I cannot begin to describe the feeling of having messed up severely with money early on in life, and the feeling that soon all of that pressure and stress will be gone.

    Wait, you're telling me there's a state of being that doesn't involve me owing anything to anyone? That's not funny to joke about man. I'm going to find out that it's all a dream and then it's fuckin' Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny ALL OVER AGAIN YOU JERK.














    but seriously, happy for you man. Not many people get to experience that, and I'm sure it's sorely needed and appreciated.

    I just love "literally challenged".
    I want to ask back: "Are you literally literally challenged, or are you just challenged and don't mean it figuratively? Or do you just enjoy the challenge in littering alleys?"

    Ohh man, Achilles gonna stay at the Fort.

    Also, the Fort is nice. Full of high-class things. Generally clean and nice. Also, just around 15 minutes from my residence there!

    I just love the fact Lord Stows is there. I had the egg tarts at the original location in Macau a couple of weeks ago.

    I had a relatively good weekend. It stormed like crazy and I didn't have to work, which meant a few hours more sleep.

    Two more days and I get to spend a week with the most handsome little man in the world. It's also like a mini-vacation except I still have to go to work and it's a longer drive.
    (D.M.A.): Cooper says, "Kyrra is either the most innocent person in the world, or the girl who uses the most innuendo seemingly unintentionally but really on purpose."

  • The superbowl is on a Monday if you live in Asia. It's kind of like a big deal or something, because apparently we get the day off for it.

    Had to look up who was playing though. Still..free day off

    Drinking Mississippi Mud and getting a football lesson from my significant other and my best friend. No idea what is going on with this game, but free booze and vegetarian pizza = win.
    My avatar is an image created by this very talented gentleman, of whose work I am extremely jealous. It was not originally a picture of Amunet, but it certainly looks a great deal like how I envision her!

    Aye, it's strawberry moonshine. Those are full strawberries sitting on the bottom, and it's good stuff.
