What to do.

I graduated on Friday with my Bachelors Of Science in Graphic Design. The ceremony was boring. The hanging out bit before, during, and after the ceremony was fun. There was a person signing on stage for the hearing impaired. I watched her a lot of the times. I know how to sign "design" and "dream" now by watching her. The "dream" sign looks pretty silly...like magician hands.

The Wednesday before I had my portfolio show, which I thought went pretty well. My table was busy during friends and family. I enjoyed that and I liked that everyone enjoyed my work. The greatest compliment I received that day was someone telling me I had really good ideas...and a really great body. Jk about the ideas part...Jk. I melted a few girls' hearts with the story of my ad campaign. I got a few job offers, which is wonderful. It was really great seeing my friends and family come out to support me, I really really appreciate it with my entire symbolic heart. It made me truly really happy...madly deeply. The whole event took place in my mind.

[paragraph deleted: too personal. maybe later?]

So its done. 3 years of school comes to an end on 2 different days. Now I don't know what to do with myself. The day after portfolio show, I was bored. A couple hours after the graduation ceremony I was really bored. I took a 3 hour nap. All I know now is I want to take a break, but i don't know what to do. Although I have thoughts in my head. Like these:

+ Road Trip/Camping
+ Krav Maga
+ Yelping highest rated restaurants and eating.
+ Movies
+ Watching instructional dance dvds.
+ Having coffee
+ Play Street Fighter.
+ Never shaving.
+ Getting over it.
+ Swimming.
+ Gym again.
+ Sleeping in.
+ A walk in the city.
+ Build a bike.
+ Clean my room
+ Get rid of stuff.
+ Riding through neighborhoods in the night.
+ Making art for funs
+ A whole lot more!

I don't know when my break should end and when I should start getting to work, but break sounds good. I shaved, I look stupid. "You shaved. You look fat."

I recorded more conversations at work. I kinda miss school already.

[2 hours later]

Tonight I saw a waiter spill soup on her shirt. Then a few seconds later soup on a customer. That was just souper. I have pictures of stuff and things, but im too lazy to put them up. Maybe later.

I think last night, I dreamnt I was in Cambodia. I was about to cross this border and i wanted to explain to an officer I needed to get home, but I couldnt speak the language. He wanted to take me into custody but it wasnt really custody; he wanted to make me a sex worker. The rest of the dream was me trying to escape. It was fucking weird.

Mmm what else. I ate at this place called 'Pizza and Chicken Love Letters' a few weeks ago with my friend Liz and Roey. I read about it in district magazine and the place and name sounded really interesting. They serve Korean pizza and fried chicken and they play Korean pop music. I asked Roey and Liz if they can keep their eyes straight ahead then turn their head while keeping their eyes straight. None of us could do it. I wanted them to try because I imagine thats what a blind person would look like. So we think of a way to try and look blind. This is what we came up with: You dont look into their eyes, but past them or pick a point around their eyes like their shoulders and just stare. Dont blink. So we all talk to each other as if we were blind, but honestly we just kept getting lost in each others eyes.

Um im sleepy.

A very special thanks to Carlo. <3 no homo...maybe a little. Thank you so much for everything you've done for me. Graduating this quarter would have been a lot harder if it werent for you.
