Update

As many of you know, 2009 has been a very contentious and emotional for me. Thank you to everyone who held my hand during this time.

I must report some good news. I got a job!  And I'll be moving to the big city in about two months!  I'm hesitant to put the exact details of what I'll be doing and where, so you'll have to ask me in real life.

I'm so excited for this position.  It took me a long time to find it, but it has been worth the wait.  I'm going to be able to do something I love, give back to the community, learn new things, and do what I was meant to do with my life.

I should begin writing substantive posts soon.  I have been bouncing a lot of ideas and thoughts in my head the past few weeks and they're ready to be spewed out.

Happy Birthday ta-ta-ta-traaacy!

happy birthday ta-ta-ta-traaacy! now we've known each other for 12 years!

I know I've been remiss lately in keeping up with blogging, but I've had my hands busy.

First, I started a new internship! I'm really happy about it. But I'm more excited of the prospect of landing a FT job afterwards within the field.

Second, I'm volunteering with a non-profit. I telecommute and do everything from Peet's. Yay for Peet's free wifi and highly-caffeinited coffee.

And third, I've been reading a lot books. Last weekend, I finished reading God-Shaped Hole and The Little Prince. Since then, I've started to read a couple of different books. There's the 6th Harry Potter book because I was slightly devastated by the lack of color in the movie. Then there's a book about meditition because it's something I've always wanted to start. And Crime and Punishment as usual. I'm still trying to make a dent in that one.

But mostly, I've been stuck on Reza Aslan's How to Win a Cosmic War: God, Globalization, and the End of the War on Terror. I started reading it because the book's argument reminds me of a class I took in college on Terrorism and Homeland Security. I'm promise to write more about it when I finish.

I have to start working now, I have a busy day. Ma'a Assalama!
