Awkward Elevator Moment

My friend and I were on the very top floor, 5th floor to be exact, of the Jack Brown building at my school.  Well, there was only one elevator working because the other one was not working.  So here we are waiting forever for the elevator to come.  When it finally did come, the doors gradually opened and it was nearly full. My friend and I barely squeezed in.  It was funny though because when the door opened, people were looking at us smiling. Uhhh…wtf?
Anyway, so the elevator needed to get down to the second (my stop) and the first floor.  But the stupid elevator stopped at every floor!  So here we are a pack of people stuck in a stinky elevator.  Furthermore, some professor tried to squeeze in and the elevator door pretty much squished him as he was walking through, and the girls started yelling! hahaha!
So yeah, during the next floors down, everybody is looking at each other and laughing and complaining saying, “Are you serious?!” as the elevator made it slowly down to each floor.
I don’t know…it was just awkward.  The whole way down, I was staring at the floor trying not to keep eye contact with anyone or trying not to laugh.  haha.  
Yeah, my random/lame/boring adventure (whatever you want to call it) at school.  Just wanted to share.  :P
I have another funny elevator moment when I was at the Mall of Asia in the Philippines.  haha.  But maybe that’s a different blog.  I don’t know.  :P

Random Rambling

It's funny being friends with someone who has the same name as you. Today, as we were walking out of class, someone who knew the both of us saw us and greeted, "Hey Jmie!...Oh! Hey other Jmie!" haha. I'm "other Jmie."

Anywho, getting the Anatomy & Physiology class that I needed made me a happy bee, even though I had to sacrifice to drop another class, and it boosted up my confidence just a little into getting closer to that Nursing Program because to be honest, I am feeling a bit discouraged. I keep hearing stories of people not getting into the program, even though their grades are phenomenol. It scares me and I'm super worried, not because my grades are bad, it's just that I don't feel like it's good enough. Eh? :S
I'm so worried that I'm thinking about other options, some of which are the worst things to think about like completely changing my major. Seriously, I feel like my future is such a blur right now. But I know I shouldn't be thinking like that. I must think positive. haha. Right? Which is why I'm going to need you to help keep me sane for as long as I'm still in school, alright? haha! :P

Well, sorry that this blog was so random, but I just wanted to get that out of my chest. It's one of those things that has been bothering me for quite sometime and there's still other things I have to do before I can apply. So on top of stress for my classes, I have stress for my requirements to apply for the Nursing Program. Gahhh!

Working for your future takes a lot of effort, both mentally and physically, which may build up a lot of stress. But in the end, it'll all be worth it, especially if you really work for it. I can't wait to get there. :)

Live up to your dreams.

xo, J

3:26am

Good morning! :)
I don't get very many text messages or phone calls, but this morning, I got this text message from a friend at 3:26am. It said:
"hi ading, i love you. you're probably asleep and will read this in the morning so good morning!"
(Ading means "younger sibling" if I'm not mistaken. ??)
Anyway, it's funny because I remembered that I actually woke up in the middle of the night to check my text message, but it was unclear because I was half asleep at that time. When I woke up, I recalled reading a text message, but somehow, I had this weird feeling that getting that text message was just a dream. (Yeah, #kidsthesedaysdreamabouttextmessaging - inside joke) I didn't want to look at my phone because I didn't want to feel disappointed if it wasn't there. But in the end, I decided to check my phone and BAM! It was real! lol
Anyway, what I'm trying to say is, I really needed that. :')
It's literally a "good" morning for me, and hopefully, for the rest of the day. :P
Now, I hope you have a good day and don't forget to tell someone you love them because you might just make their day. :)
xo, J

Goodbye 2010, Hello 2011!

A new year means new challenges and new experiences. Now that 2010 is finally over, I feel like there's a great weight lifted from my shoulders. Everything that was a burden to me last year is long gone and over with and it's time to start fresh. And as always, I know it's not going to be easy, but I'm ready to take on whatever challenge may come. And I know if there's something I can't handle on my own, I've got friends I know I can trust and turn to for guidance. Last year may not have been the best, but I sure did learn a lot and I sure do feel like I've become a stronger person, and I'm proud of it myself. Of course, making it through the year would have not been tolerable without the help of some of my friends, which made it easier for me to end the year right, which was to carry a positive attitude until the turn of the year. :)
*sigh* Bring it on 2011!
