Healthy Pregnancy

My sister is pregnant again. She is really fast! We were so surprise but happy at the same time for her. She will need a lot of prenatal vitamins and hope there will be no complications on her pregnancy. Last time, she had a lot. I hope it will be a boy this time so my nephew can have someone to play with. He is sick right now. I hate to see kids in hospital, it's just they're so delicate and tender. I pray he gets better.

Old Dogs

Steven and I had a date last night. We haven't watched a movie at a theater for a while now. He asked me if I want to watch Old Dogs since the trailer really made me laugh so hard. Steven laughed so hard during the movie which was really surprising. He usually just chuckles but this time he was the only one left laughing at the theater. I love it when he laughs! 
I can't remember if there were any bad words but it was clean in terms of no bed scene. So it's really great for kids. We try to avoid movies with bad words and bed scenes.
After the movie, we walked to the Chinese buffet. I was really excited to eat there. This time, the food wasn't that exciting anymore. I would love to eat there still but last week I was really craving it.
My weekend really was awesome! I'm ready to go back to work. Thanks to my wonderful and amazing husband! God is so good to me!

Going to Heaven First

The life insurance policy we have is really good. Steven got me one but I wanted it to be big too. Last night, I was restless and my mind was thinking of so many things including dying. I may be going to heaven first compared to Steven because he works hard on staying healthy while I am so lazy. I'm glad for my job where I could get a little exercise but that's it. Food wise, I'm not a healthy eater too. So sometimes I do get scared.

Fire Drill

Last Monday, we had a fire drill at my workplace. It was crazy because they did it at dinner time which made it more difficult. I was told to tell the nurse where the fire is but I wasn't told to let her make an announcement. Oh well! We were glad we won't have to do the drill again. It would be nice if they will provide protective clothing like the firemen wear for handling small fires. Anyway, I think our bell is connected to the fire station because they had to call them and tell them it was just a fire drill. It wasn't fun doing it.

All About Oregon

One of the coffee books that I really enjoyed looking into is the book called Historic Photos of Oregon. I'm so glad I was sent a copy of it. I'm not into reading so this really worked for me. There are almost 200 black and white photographs in this book. 

It amazes me what life was like before. Everything was so simple but still they lived and changed what Oregon is today. It covered a lot of historical dates and places like when Crater Lake was discovered, the Oregon caves, Mount Hood, and even University of Oregon, who started and when. Most of all, it has photographs of the university's first football team. The time period covered was in 1800s to the modern era.

Knowing the history of Oregon through the book really helped me appreciate this state more. My husband was born and raised here, he too enjoyed going through the book with me. 

This would be a beautiful gift to someone who loves Oregon.  I love this place. Now, I really want to see the rest of this state's beauty! I'm glad the Historic Photos of Oregon by William Stack is available for us at Turner Publishing and many other major bookstores online. 

Determination

When the economy here in US started to spiral down, many people started going back to colleges. Many went to get a degree where they are sure they can get a job on. Many people also got into business administration degree to take a shot in starting their own businesses. It's a good program since you are your own boss. You can explore different business fields like doing online business or crafts, anything that you know you can do and are good at it. This is not the time where you get laid off from a job, you turn into a potato couch. You can get a degree online if you don't want to get up and go to school. It's fast and you can study at your own convenience. Online course is a brilliant idea!

What Should I Be When I Grow Up?

One thing I've always had an interest in doing is promoting local musicians. Honestly, my dream job would be to work for a record company in A & R, finding new talent. But how does one get started in doing that? You can't just apply for it because you have good taste in music.
I think one has to start by trying to promote local musicians first. Maybe once you help a new artist get discovered that is what launches you into the A & R(Artist and repertoire) side of the business.
I wouldn't be so interested in negotiating with local music venues though. I'm fine with dealing with the poster printing and hitting the streets with demo CDs. I'm just not interested in acting as a manager.

It's really hard to figure out what I want to do for a career. It's just so hard. I definitely thought that I would know what I wanted to do by age 30.....but I'm not any closer, I don't think.
I've done as much school work as possible at my local community college. I really need to transfer to a 4 year university to finish my bachelors degree. Unfortunately, I have no idea what I want to major in. Any ideas?
