This year, actually I wanted this a couple years ago but I didn't get it. I want a digital SLR and to add on to it I want an iMac. Whenever I'm not at work I find myself bored to death. Trying to waste my time doing something random. At the same time I really wanna stick to the JARS system. I learned it from the Millionaire Mind Intensive. Basically, every time you get paid or get some form of money, you split it into 6 accounts. Yes, I know that sounds ridiculously insane, but it works. Say you get paid $1000, this would be the increments you would split them into:
Necessities (food, rent, clothing -not random shopping money though, gas, you get the point)
-50% = $500
Financial Freedom Account (money to invest)
-10% = $100
Education Account (includes travelling and food expenses if its a seminar out of town or something)
-10% = $100
Long Term Savings for Spending (vacation, car, something big, in my case an iMac and SLR)
-10% = $100
Play (this one is awesome. money you blow. I could use this account too)
-10% = $100
Give (gifts, charity, church, any form of giving)
-10% = $100
It'd just be really nice if I could take all these pictures and upload them onto a Mac and edit them, then post them on a blog or something. It'll give me something to do! And thats my rant for tonight.
I haven't posted in a while and the only reason that I feel like that is, is because someone said not to post personal stuff about my life on blogs. I gave it more thought, seriously? who cares? if you're reading this it's probably cause you want to know more about me and well guess what? This is who I am, and if you don't like it, well that's your problem.
So since the last time I've posted a lot of things have changed. I got really fed up and applied every where and got some help from my sis-in-law with the update of my resume. Got 3 interviews and got hired at American Eagle at Metrotown. The people there, well most of them are really young, in their teens, but they're all really nice. I've befriended most of them and so far it's going well.
Though it is kinda strange cause I've been there for a month now and they screwed up on my direct deposit twice so I technically haven't gotten paid yet. Plus it doesn't help when my own mother took my Visa away from me =( yet at the same time I think that it's all suppose to be a lesson in itself. What do I do when I have absolutely no money? Well.. life still goes on and it ain't the end of the world that's for sure.
I thought that once I got a job again, everything would go back to normal. Most things have it seems, but there's something missing still. More like.. A LOT that's missing. I don't really care about the weird hours I get at work, I think I just need something or a couple things I do on the side so that I feel as if I'm moving forward. Cause honestly. I'm freakin bored when I'm not at work. I've picked up playing the piano again but thats pretty much it. Gotta get a hobby that's cheap. hmm.
This morning, Kelly and I have concluded that we're really boring people right now in our lives. Doesn't mean we always are. Just right now in life, nothing really exciting seems to be going on. Anyways, from the last post, yes I felt kind of stranded by UBC without a wallet and no change to get home. But I am so happy and grateful to be rescued by daddy lol.
Kelly ended up going out to Coquitlam for the day and she's glad she came out. We went to White Spot for lunch, Daddy's treat. Thanks daddy =) Got my Sunday milk shake, which today I have named Milk Shake Sunday cause I always get milk shake after church on Sundays. The entire time we had a great conversation about other beings on our planet and becoming conscious.
Once we got home, we took the dogs out for a walk down by the river. Felt like a bit of an adventure as we went all the way up the river as much as we could. Walking on the empty river bed, I could feel the energy coming towards me as if water was still running through there. We actually didn't go that far because the spot we had to turn around was stopped by someone's private property that was really at the end of my street and the river is only a five min walk from two directions.
I guess no matter what there's always an adventure with a Mullen whether there's something or nothing that exciting going on in life or not.
First of all, I just wanna congratulate Tosh on hosting her first successful trance dance last night in Kitsilano.
I left the house late yesterday morning to spend the day with Kelly Mullen before heading off to help facilitate trance dance. We brought Zoe the dog out for a walk down to Jericho beach then got ready to leave for the evening. Our intention was to go down to 4th, grab a light dinner, window shop for a bit then go trance.
However, as I was sorting things out in my bag of what to bring just for the night I couldn't find my wallet. So I left the house with just enough change in my change purse to get me to the opposite side of town but not enough to get home the next morning. Great. Though I found this all to be quite interesting after having an entire conversation with Kelly about being broke and stuck and having no clue of what to do in life right now other than to get hired at a job. At this very moment I really had no money. No bank card, no credit card, nothing. But we did somehow manage to get ourselves down to 4th and Maple for trance that night. Interesting enough, after set up, the two of us ended up participating instead of spotting the dance.
At this point for those of you who don't know, whoever reads what I write anyways. Trance Dance is a Shamanic Journey for the Soul where we set an intention of what we want right now in life and dance through however long the dance may be, blind folded. It was a good journey that night.
Later on in the evening after trance dance. Trinity drove us home. Way to manifest Kelly! We hung out, made some yummy cookies and milk for dinner. lol. Then Trudy came in, scared me at first to be honest cause I felt something or someone starring at me. Plus she was wearing a red jacket! We were all at Mary's, while Mary wasn't there lol cause she's currently in Orlando visiting her grandkids.
So that evening was the coolist thing ever. Trinity channeled some answers for some questions we had to ask well.. I guess you could call them spirits. The main message they wanna give us to our physical world is to do whatever it is that makes YOU feel good. That's right people stop trying to please everyone, do what makes you happy.
This entire month I've pretty much spent it at home painting and thinking of what I wanna do with my life. It helped actually. There were rough patches here and there but overall I must say it was a really good month. I decided it was time to stop playing around for now and go for a job till whatever happens.
Attempt number 1: It was quite interesting what happened on the last week of September. I was prepping to leave the house to hand out some resumes at around 11, then grandma got me to do some chores before I leave. After some chores I realized I didn't print out any resumes yet, so I went to print some out and what do I find out? The printer is out of ink. So I took it as a sign that I wasn't suppose to leave the house that day to hand out resumes. That very night I went out to get some new ink so I could go the next day.
Attempt number 2: I got to the mall and handed out some resumes. Near the end of it all I get a text from the beautiful Veronica Buna asking if I wanted to head up to Whistler for the day since she was in town.
A spontaneous trip last min? Of course! So I skytrained/bussed it to downtown to meet the girls. Kelly took out a car rental, picked up Veronica's bestfriend Geny and headed up. On the way up I asked what we're gonna do. The reply? "I duno walk around Whistler just because" are we gonna stop by Whistler Bungee to visit the boys? YES! Because Geny has never jumped before and Ver wanted to jump again. Kelly and I? well we wanted to see how we felt about jumping this time since we jumped before.
At the end Mat at bungee convinced us to jump again. It all happened so perfectly too because we arrived while the boys were arriving for work that afternoon and we came before the first batch of people came in for their scheduled bungee appointments. After we jumped we hung out by the bottomless lake then headed back down to the car to have a snack before we headed up to Whistler. And of course because this day was so perfect the boys were leaving too. We invited them out for a drink when we headed up for Whistler since we're all gonna be in the area anyways. John said that he'd come out for a beer at 7 at the Amsterdam but no promises.
We walked around Whistler. Took a picture in front of the Olympic rings then walked into a store full of rocks and crystals that amused us. Then I asked, "Where are we meeting John?" Kelly turns around and says, "right here actually" and points at the Amsterdam. And who was right next to us standing there? John of course. We talked and talked. I think for a good 2 hours? It was freezing up at Whistler and I definitely wasn't prepared for that spontaneous last min trip but it was all worth it. And that pretty much sums it all up.
The after Party at Mary's to burn some prayer ties from last year and to do some releases. But first! We had to have an awesome awesome dinner. Along with a night filled with jokes and laughter after some wine and drinks that Garfield our bartender for the night made. It was yummy! Then we had a little fire in a pan to do our releases. After that it was more jokes and laughter. And last but not least! the highlight of that day, or shall I say lesson...
Not long after camp I called up Lori to go out for dinner before she left town. I asked mom to come along as well because I knew she hadn't seen Lori for a couple years. And Lori brought Suzanne out for dinner as well. It was really cool how we all know each other actually. I know Suzanne from Wizard camp and Lori from Warrior last summer when we both krewed it. Mom knows Suzanne from Life Directions, which is another course from peaks, and met Lori on the shuttle into Sunset Resorts in Malaysia when they krewed the first Warrior Malaysia together. So we all know each other, but this was the first time we were all together. Awesome how we're all connected eh?
