family

Post-Christmas Post

Yay for time with family, and some good food. With the new kiddos in the family its nice to see and hear presents being opened, for the older generation it more like envelopes and gift cards. Time goes by really fast. For me it has been a good year, of course the struggles were there, but I managed to get through them. As for new year's resolutions, let hope I can keep them. As for what they are, I haven't decided yet.

Happy Holidays, Happy New Year

a phone call

Hi Chris, this is Doug from Datalabs. I'm calling you to see if you are available for a second interview...

First, Datalabs is a company that deals with software development for companies that conduct clinical trials.

Second, its in Irvine, just on California and Academy

Third, (inner geek) they are using VB.net, something that I wanted to learn

Finding my way to make my hobby a job


*edit: Second Interview was 1/5/2005, another phone call is on the way*

I always thought it was interesting to see who visits the LOG website. A lot come for google searches, UCI catholic, Liwanag, etc. Some come from peoples blogs like this. For me realizing that people are always coming to the website, I always have to put something new.

I have a habit of making so many layouts, because I'm never satisfied with the end result. Sometimes I think I should have gone to an school that had a focus on web design. Since my resume reflects my hobby then my college major, that kind of thinking isn't random. But I think that my decisions have brought me to a place that I needed to be. Its not often that you find a group of friends that you consider as family...

Following sheep

So why the title....
This is my first post in blogger. I've gone so long without it seems foreign to me. I admit I read other people's blogs. It seems like everyone has an interesting story to tell or some inspired words of wisdom. Unlike me, who struggles to get his point across and merely confusing everyone around me.

"Following sheep", just a phrase for myself. Blogger, LiveJournal, etc. I think I owe to my bloggers who always have something to say . To add something to the conversation, to give something back.

As for the purpose for this blog, it can't be as cool as some with guessing games or analytical one-liners. It exists to speak when I can't.

*NOTE* This will not become an everyday or every week occurrence.
