Stay away from mindsets that inhibit mental, intellectual, spiritual growth.
Well actually, no, understand those mindsets so you CAN grow mentally, intellectually, and spiritually, and so that you'll have access to all sides of thinking.

My full plate...

The next two months is going to be pretty rough on me. I have a buttchunk on my plate:

Choreograph dance steps for Indonesian and Lao trad. dances
Find costumes, if that isn't possible
But fabric, sew, and put costumes together
Learn the steps
Practice the steps
Memorize them

Buy one, or two, poster boards
Research facts and tidbits on Indonesia and Laos
Design poster
Put poster together

Also, design poster for Asian Heritage Month /advertisement

In the meantime, due next week... a poster on Indonesian traditional dances
Buy poster board
Do research
Design poster board
Put poster board together
Buy ink

...

Well, I love culture and it looks like I'm really getting a good dose of it this year so far. Haha.

My self-confidence is usually pretty high, meaning I usually go day to day feeling good about myself and my image. Although lately, this past week in particular, I haven't exactly been feeling too confident. I think the stress is imposing that negative image and creating those negative thoughts, but more than anything--and this is going to sound a bit silly--it's the loneliness.

I highly despise you, Stress. Maybe if I wasn't so stressed out, the feeling of loneliness wouldn't be as strong.

I'm the kind of person, who, during a stressful time like this, likes to be comforted and held. I'm mushy that way. I need someone to tell me that it's going to be fine. I like to cuddle. Cuddling help releases a lot of that pent up tension for me. But, I have no one to cuddle with. ='(

Dream Job

I would love to be a big boss someday, and by "big boss" I mean someone who runs a multi-million dollar design company--like an executive director. As much as I despise myself for admitting to this, I like having authority. =D

I picture myself rocking the high heels and the sleek suit. Mmm.

This made me smile tonight. One of my closest girlfriends said this to me, just when I needed it.

"Firda, I want you to know that I love you. You have proven to be my truest friend and you are such a good person too. I admire you a lot."
