productive summer?
Life is much more fulfilling when i spend my time productively :) I don't want to look back on my summer and think, "Wow. I did nothing." I want to be proud of myself.
I'm pretty happy about this summer. work is becoming more and more natural to me, and customers have been telling me that I'm always happy and friendly whenever they see me. that makes me happy that i've made a good impression on them. I've made earrings for just about all the girls at Yogurtland, which is actually quite bonding. in addition, i've been working on my photography. i must've taken at least two thousand--maybe three thousand--pictures this summer, and I got my first paid photography gig by Alex for his badminton lessons in fremont. so far it's turning out pretty well; it's pretty good practice. sports photography isn't as fun nor as demanding as fashion photography, but it's good to add to my arsenal.
my efforts in school have paid off too; I finally got the Jack Sen scholarship thingie (what a pleasant change from my high school years!), but I have to give a speech -___- I'll be representing the college students, and I only hope that I won't sound stupid. Yesterday when my parents and I went to their office to purchase dinner tickets, the Jack Sen people said that I should compete in their Miss SF Chinatown pageant. My mom really wants me to (she's even willing to buy the cheongsam dress and everything, which is very out of character for her) but I don't want to open myself up to public scrutiny -_- it'll just make me insecure. Plus I'll have to work out and get alls toned and everything. too much work but it sounds like it'd be fun!
i finished my domo bag but i have a strong urge to make more :D and i still haven't gotten to work on my dresses yet! i need more time!
