I find it more and more true that people’s moods are affected by the weather. It was overcast all day and it got a bit chilly towards the evening. People were grumpy and had foul dispositions. I was not a fan. Maybe they all had a case of the Mondays, but it was really hard to work with some of them today. I just steered clear of them the rest of the day. So work was okay, nothing too exciting.

I have been getting random emails from people that are not from the US. It’s hard to tell where they are from actually. If I were to take an educated guess, I would choose Singapore. But a few people have been RSVPing to a wedding on May 17th and giving me their home addresses. I at first thought that it was spam, because it looks like spam in a way and in another way, it looks real. So I don’t know what to do. I want to think that they accidentally spelled their email address wrong and gave them mine instead. Parts of it look suspicious, but then again, they did give me their home addresses. So I am still not sure what to do. I am tempted to email those people back and tell them that they got the wrong person, but if it is spam, I am afraid that it will send more and more to my inbox. I never get spam in my gmail account, so it’s all weird to me. Anyway, I am unsure as to what to do, but on a random note, if anyone is interested in having an extra email account, I can invite tons and tons of people to gmail. I like it and it’s a great format for me and easy to use. It has over 2000 MB of space so, it’s generous in that aspect. So hit me up if you want an account. You know how to reach me.

Being spontaneous, Angie and I met up at Acapulco’s for Margarita Monday. We called up a few others and rounded up Kim, Mendo (Jon), and Marty. I haven’t seen them all in a really long time. It was especially nice to see Marty because I had been concerned about her after her sister’s death last month. I never know what to say, but we were able to talk about it a little and she seems to be holding up really well. I am proud of her and I know that she is a very strong girl. It was also nice to see Mendo, who just recently started his job at one of the big five accounting firms in LA. He likes it just fine and despite not liking his current boss (which changes frequently, luckily) he is doing super duper and doesn’t mind living at home. He works so hard that I guess it doesn’t matter where he sleeps. It must be nice not having to pay rent. Besides Mendo, I realized that all of the people at the table are people that I met through my old roomie, Lisa. They did the Orientation Program a year after I counseled. Mendo was my next door neighbor during the summer and we had good times. But yeah, it’s nice to realize that the people that I meet through my good friends eventually become my friends as well, to the point where I don’t even realize how we had met. Lisa wasn’t at dinner tonight and it didn’t feel weird with her not being there with the present company. She was not feeling up to it and she deserved to relax. I really do hope that she will be inevitably happy with her job, even if it requires her to quit it. It may be the best thing for her right now. I just want her to be happy, that’s all. It’s easy to lose sight of things when wrapped up in work, school, etc. and it all comes down to happiness and what you’re comfortable with. I’m rambling. Anyway, it was very lovely seeing all of them, and again, I have to be better with seeing them on a regular basis.

Josh’s mohawk pics are posted. It’s my first time shaving his head, so please be nice. It didn’t turn out too bad. We are trying to find the best product for it to make it stay up without it feeling like glue. It’s a lot harder than I thought. If all else fails, we can use Elmer’s glue, like my friend Hingyi, and then iron it flat. That’s hardcore.
