my work

up coming events i am ecstatic about:

- one 2 year anniversary
- one grand opening
- one quarter century birthday

i'm not too enthusiastic about that last item, but sort of am. i guess i'll explain.
in terms of accomplishments... to the normal everyday person, my life most certainly seems bland, but to me... well, i feel good and bad.
i've taken baby steps to get to where i am today: jobless. it was hard graduating jr. high, high school, jr. college, and college. every graduation was a tiny victory for me. then i obtained what i thought i wanted: an 8 to 5 job managing a small office. and had lady chance not taken a small detour, i would be living in sacramento right now still feeling miserably trapped in. but no, i've taken a chance incomprehensible to me in prior years and am soon to become an entrepreneur. my excitement increases with each passing day...
i just returned from a trip to hong kong and china. my mission for that trip? acquisition of initial inventory. yes, it was my first ever business trip. how very lovely. though the trip was somewhat miserable save that of jack (i'm so grateful he was there with me), i still felt such a sense of accomplishment. i'm not quite sure how to explain it.
i don't care much to be a business owner. my parents were business owners and from what i saw, it seemed like nothing more than a headache. but this is different. this is more like a project for me, not another future job. it's something i can work towards and reap not only monetary benefits from, but also a sort of self satisfaction. it allows me to feel not quite so lost. and with an upcoming so-called turning of tides birthday, it seems all that much better. me, a business owner before the age of 25.
even better is that the love story that is my life is still in full swing. what pure happiness is this? june 3 marks the day of our second wonderful year together. we've been through much together, especially the last couple of months. there isn't much more i can wish for, only that my business does as well as i hope it to.
