where's my torch dear sakyans
What the hell. I figured to write rather than excruciatingly wait for employment prospects. Yeah, I might not have anything juicy right now but I ought to do something. Yes I'm at a lost again in the job market and almost begging for someone to notice me. Ha! But I won't surrender or despair, nor would I wait for The Meaning of Life to dawn on me. No. For now, I should write... err to ebb off any sense of purposelessness. I should feel like I'm doing something worthwhile- and fortunately writing does take a toll on me.

So since my last update, I had that highschool reunion with fellow Sakyans. It was a blast and I got to meet some old friends. Key word: some. Yes those hollow-skulled big bad high school bullies were there as well. They were fat, pot-bellied and a few were horribly ugly- and probably fathering children. Anyway, the good ones were there as well- who are doing great right now(good business, med school, good careers, etc). I actually wrote an entry about it but it was erased by pc gods. Perhaps I said something appalling about those (now) prissy school administrators who welcomed us so unctuously. I mean they didn't gave us time to hate them at the homecoming, hate inspired by those unbecoming highschool years. Lol! Anyway, we shouldn't dwell on that. So after Jan.14 homecoming, I finally got to fix my thesis grade and clearance in school. And last week I got interviews and I submitted resume to a job fair sponsored by our school. I also applied for social security as well. And just this week, well... one test and a lot of waiting and reading and waiting.

About employment prospects... hmm. Well I definitely failed at least 3 interviews/tests I think. One asked me to write a code on a white board, another was also a programming tests and sudoku puzzles (I know: what the?)- which I by the way didn't finish because the business owner freaked me out and I'm rather nauseous about sudoku (and it was my first time!). The third is the renown p&g exam, which I failed again (after two years since my last try). But I'm not giving up hope one those others, three jobs that I really want.

who am i
Eric thought he has found what he's looking for (like the U2 song. lol!). These days, he's not even sure whether he's actually looking for something. And, he's tired of riding on other people's dreams, assuming purposeful identities. He figures life's not about how we think we figure in the "larger scheme of things" (thus, "The Identity Myth"). Rather, it's about finding what compels and weighs us down to live another day, and pursuing just that. He chronicles various life happenings alluding to the identity myth, because in the end he recognizes that obsessing about it is inevitable, and human (and sometimes pathetic and shallow). Oh, he's undecided between survival and bliss (like the Alanis song). And his favourite pastime is to fluctuate between despair and hope.
