caffeine-addict


It is I. I have checked and now I am positive. Never thought that I could actually be one of those people who NEED something. Last week I got really sick so I thought, instead of drinking coffee every morning, I should drink OJ. You know, the healthy stuff. I had chicken soup and noodles for 4 days.

Then, the next day I had the worst headache. The pounding kind. Ugh. It was pretty bad and I wasn't sure if it was because I was sick or if it was something else. Something told me that it might be something else. So I went to Starbucks and ordered a Caramel Macchiato. I thought I should get the coffee before I get the medicine and see if it's caffeine-withdrawal or my own sickness. Guess what. Bingo. Went away that I forgot I even had a headache. lol. Welcome to the world of caffeine addicts Stephanie! It's not so bad. Coffee is awesome. Makes me truly happy during my busiest days.

my daily planner

Another week gone by. It goes by so quickly that I can't keep track of it or even let it sink in. I'm one of those people who can't live without their daily planners. Recently I lost it for less than 24 hours and I felt so lost and unable to get anything done. The whole day at work was fuss over where my planner could be. That night my mom handed my planner that I left in her car the night before. When she placed it in front of me I held it up like it was a lost treasure that has finally been recovered.

It's important that my goals are met by the end of each week. I won't cross out what I wrote on my "to do list" until they are completed. And the funny part is, I look back (rarely) at my planner and I see every event and deadline I've written that has taken place. It's so weird how before the day comes, I stress trying to fit the schedules together and then it's over and..then I forget that it ever happened. I only look at what is to come that day or that week. On the other hand, there's my journal where I write only the things that has happened already. And I feel like sometimes I only dwell on the past. Funny.

bad day


I absolutely hated working today. Gosh! I just hate it when people are mad and take out their frustrations on other people. Just innocent bystanders! Why? Why do people do that to each other, does it really make you feel better? You know that you're going to regret it right after you do it..and you try to cover it up like it never happened. (this is where I roll my eyes). I get it. People are that stressed, but still...come on.

I just take it all in because I don't know what else to do. Actually, I take it home..and I just blow up inside like I am right now. *Sigh. It's been 3 hours since I got home from work and I'm still a little upset. Ruined my night that I'm not even tired anymore. I should be sleeping right now, but I wanted to vent before I go to bed. How annoying.

no, thank you

I'm already supposed to register for a class next Monday and I got stressed just thinking about school. Obviously I don't want to go back to school. I just want to work, come home..and be stress-free from exams/grades. There's just one class I have to take, but I already feel the tension. No, thank you.

Fall semester starts next month and I find myself feeling totally robbed of my summer vacation. Feels like I just started my summer yesterday even though it's been a month.

To me, school is pretty much stress and time-constraint. How sad. When did I start dreading school? I think I liked school back in preschool.. lol

catching up




I'm amazed at the speed of time. I can never seem to catch up. When did it become July already? I have to catch my breath.

#1. I still can't believe my baby cousin graduated from high school when we used to play "house" together as kids..not too long ago it seems. She was the baby and I was always the mother. haha


#2. I got a new air freshener in my room. Now it smells like sweet Hawaiian Breeze. Wonderful.


#3. For the 4th of July my family and I went hiking together. Something we haven't done in ages. It was beautiful..a memory that I will cherish forever.


#4. "Ratatouille" is my favorite movie of the year. :o) I'll gladly watch it for the 3rd time.


#5. VBS of 2007 is finally over. I can't believe it..more than 600 kids at church. Aww, I miss VBS already.


#6. I passed my citizenship interview a couple weeks ago. In 90 days I will be a citizen AND my name will officially be: Stephanie Heejin Kwon. Yay! Good-bye to Huijin Kwon. :o)


#7. Last Sunday was my last Bible Study with my 4th grade girls. That made me sad.


#8. Jo (my sister) is leaving this Sunday for missions for a whole month.



Time is precious.
