I’m just freakin’ exhausted!
April has been an absolute whirlwind month and frankly, I deserve a break.
I’ve been trying to keep up with the little things via Twitter and Flickr and Delicious, but I know that these types of things are not the same as me sitting down and devoting a few minutes to, oh, actually WRITING something.
I miss blogging. But I need this right now.
Anyway, hopefully you’ll be back when I come back.
And yes, I’ll definitely be back.
- Saturday of love. Dropped EB off at Union Station, met w/ Mom & Bro to chant for Dad, lunch, visit Grandma, home with Yoshi. Love! #

Thankfully, this song and dance is not actually performed by jozjozjoz… it is FOR jozjozjoz!
I am so lucky!
My good friend bobo was going to drive almost 100 miles to come to my graduation party this past Saturday with her hubby routerguy and her daughter S, but they couldn’t make it at the last minute. So their other daughter Amber made up and performed the jozjozjoz song to celebrate my MBA while bobo spelled “j o z” in sign language.
TOO CUTE!
I love the bow-chicka-bow-wows. Check it out! hehehe!

I love that word: Serendipity.

Had the most wonderful graduation weekend but don’t have the time or energy to write about it quite yet.
For everyone who thought that I was going to have all kinds of free time after graduation, I don’t know about that!
It’s been an insanely busy few weeks and I promise to make time to catch you up with it!
In the meantime, here are some pictures I posted on flickr that I took with my iPhone this past weekend…
But now it’s time for sleep!

Yay willpower!

How blessed am I that 12 of my very favorite people in the world traveled from far and wide to spend my graduation weekend with me?
A yummy Italian dinner was made from scratch by EB with help from sous chef Mom.
Dessert was made lovingly by Tai at Scoops and special delivered by Prof Eric and his beau. Tai made a strawberry lychee ice cream cake just for this occasion!!! Thank you, Tai!!!
Everyone else pitched in other ways or traveled a very long way to be here with me.
I am so grateful.
I am so lucky.
More later… (pecked out Saturday morning at 4:15am via iPhone in bed)

As of 5:15pm, I officially completed my MBA program.
I emailed my final exam paper in for my final course and can feel good on Saturday when I walk at graduation that I did it. I really did it. And with honors to boot.
I thought I was going to cry when it was all over or that the feeling of relief would wash over me as the realization of this achievement came true. Instead, nothing’s too different. I’m tired, exhausted and just want to sleep.
Too much to do before graduation on Saturday. And that freakin’ party is stressing me out. When do I get to enjoy this?!?!?!
Finishing my MBA program is the best news of the day, but a very close second is that my Mom is back from Taiwan! Yay! I worked from 8am to 8pm today (trying to get some stuff done for clients) and headed to LAX to pick her up. Unfortunately, her flight was totally late and so I ended up circling LAX arrivals 7 times before I gave up and pulled over to park. I was so tired I could barely keep my eyes open. I probably shouldn’t have been driving. As soon as I parked, my Mom called my phone saying that she had cleared customs and would meet me at the curb.
Anyway, she’s at our place now, and I’m trying to figure out what I have to do tonight before the craziness of tomorrow.
I’m still in disbelief… I DID IT! I REALLY DID IT!
- home sweet home. Finally. PS - Heard from EB a few hours ago. He’s ok but has quite a tale. #

A great follow up by Jason Calacanis regarding the “death by blogging” story, focusing on stress, the lack of balance and another common thread these folks had aside from blogging: entrepreneurship
-
My favorite part: Do I write every day? No. Life interferes with the best intentions. But I try to write every day. A writer who doesn’t write is only an author, and the best authors are dead. Writing is for the living. Try to live every day.

You may have already read this Pulitzer Prize winning article or heard about this experiment, but somehow I missed this until today.

Some of the questions and comments from the public are a little pedantic, but Weingarten starts the chat with some interesting background information regarding how the venue was chosen for this experiment.

I did not know this.
Did you?
