But yet lately, it sure has felt like one.
I’ve been downright lazy these past three weeks and sadly I think I’ve slipped right back to my regular summer schedule. (Which basically consists of sleeping, eating, and sleeping some more.) Sleeping can be quite fun, and lately, I’ve been having some really realistic ones. For example, last night, I dreamed that I was choking on newspaper… and when I woke up, I found myself chewing on my comforter. Scary.
Anyhow, from now on, I’ll force myself to be more productive. And to start that off, I’m finally looking into colleges and possible majors I might want to pursue in the future. So far, I think I want to do a double in Graphic Design and Business. However, it is downright impossible to find a good school focused on graphic design or website development… and like a child of a good Asian family, my parents really want me to get into an Ivy League college. Honestly, I highly doubt that sort of school would take an interest in me anytime soon… unless I bribe them. Hey, the economy is bad right now, so why not take advantage of it?
Just kidding, if I had that sort of money, I wouldn’t waste it on something as stupid as that (:
Speaking of money, I’d really like to find myself a summer job… For some crazy reason, I want to experience hard, physical labor. I think it’d strengthen my character, as well as my weak jellyfish arms. (Even though jellyfish are quite strong, when they’re cooked… it’s basically the same substance that my arms are made of.) Sadly, I haven’t been able to find anything. It really irks me that all, if not most, of my other friends have “real” jobs. Basically…
“Wow I just put in so many hours over at Subway.”
“Huh… sounds fun…”
“It’s hard work, making money sure is hard.”
“Really?… Hm… still, sounds fun.”
“Do you have a job?”
“Yeah, I freelance, why?”
At this point, the conversation ends, because the other side is laughing his head off. I really don’t understand why freelancers are so looked down upon. Funny enough, a lot of people in my Driver’s Ed. class works at subway. I wonder if they get discounts…
Oh, by the way, use the code summer25 to get 25% off any order over at http://rooeh.com/

For some reason, my summer break isn’t as great as I thought it would be. Well, I am quite pleased that I can go to the fridge any time and grab myself a sausage to chew on, but I have finally realized how long of a walk it is from the study to the kitchen. Besides that, I have also been forced to take Drivers Ed. Honestly, it’s a big waste of time, and our current student teacher is really getting on my nerves. For some reason, she feels the need to make us all pronounce our names at least ten times, and even more if you have an interestingly unpronounceable name, like myself and the other Asians in the room. (Which was not many… I guess all the Asians were smart enough to take Drivers Ed early). Really now, I didn’t think teachers were that picky about names these days, for example, when she tried out my name on her tongue, I half thought she was choking. Yes, the pronunciation was that atrocious. Honestly, there’s a word in the English language that sounds basically the same, “routine”. So I just went the usual route and told her my nickname, “Roo”, but that wasn’t good enough and before I knew it, I was spelling that three letter word out. Also, I’ve noticed that said student teacher has the attention and memory span of a fly. I kid you not…
Besides that, I’ve just been finishing up the odd commission here and there, and cleaning. Speaking of commissions, I’m offering a 30% discount on all of my web design services. Give it a shot, you’ll be glad you did.

Well, the school year is FINALLY over for me, and I can finally get a start on those updates that I have been promising. (For example, those CSS templates.) Anyways, this new layout is very pink, I know, but I’ve been really into bright and cheery colors lately. Enjoy!
