.oh hi.

i used to have a blog. the last time i wrote on it was 2014. it was basically my college diary, but, like most diaries, after you put some years between you and them, when you revisit them, the embarrassment is just so…much.

oh, and its name was silly. kind of how your high school hotmail email address was silly. so i took it down and put it where you put old diaries and photo albums–deep in a box that says don’t touch and you warn everyone (aka just your fiancé) away–except, you know, this was a cyberbox, which is, to say, not a box at all.

(cyberbox: n. a place to hide digitally humiliating stuff aka blogger dashboard, which i don’t think i know how to access anymore)

anyway, i missed writing, so here i am to try again.

what would be good for you to know?

i’m a school counselor. at least, i’m trying to be one. i was one for five years in utah. now i live in new jersey and i’m trying to be a school counselor out here. it’s way hard. not like it wasn’t hard before, but it wasn’t hard for me to get a job in utah because there were more jobs than there were counselors, plus i was an educational unicorn.

(educational unicorn: n. an asian school counselor who speaks spanish and likes working with junior high students)

now i’m competing against 200+ other applicants for one job, which sucks. also you sweat way more because humidity, so you can imagine how cranky it’s making me not to be an educational unicorn anymore, and just a plain ol’ brown filly who is sweating all the time.

so, like, if you know anyone who works in education in new jersey, please let me know. okay, thanks, bye.
