There's not enough time to do the things I want to do.

I realized that as soon as I started my first job, ambition kicked in and I'm so thirsty to do something for myself. I realized that I somewhat dislike the office job because at the end of the day, I feel like I don't own anything. Of course there's that nice fat pay cheque at the end of the month which I end up spending/saving on myself but other than that I don't feel content.

I want to run my own business.
-----------------------------------------

I need more time. I discovered I am not the typical 9-5 worker who likes to go home and watches TV after dinner until bedtime. I want to be more productive after work to make up for the 'loss' of time at work (hmm). This weekend I basically accomplished none of the things I wanted to accomplish. I ended up wandering around shopping areas and eating rich French food at cafes all weekend. Must do this week:

-Go to the shoe cobbler for some project I decided to take on myself because I'm curious
-Write in this blog
-Make icons for blog
-Edit photos and somehow post
-Figure out navigation bar
-Go to get my Alexander Wang bag fixed (darn you stupid concert chair)
-Figure out the third week of October (will announce if third week happens)
-Post latest baking project that occurred a week ago and which none physical elements remain in sight
-Email friends
-Practice drawing on Wacom tablet
-Ponder about my winter wardrobe. Then commence pondering if there will ever be a winter here and realize my efforts in pondering are futile. I guess no fox fur earmuffs again this year (dang!)
-Have time to myself to do all the above.

At least I did one thing out of my list (not mentioned above): I figured out what I am doing at the end of October. I am going to China. I am going to Sichuan. I am going to Sichuan because everyone thinks Hokkaido is the place to be so I want to go somewhere where most people probably have not been to. And when I go I will bring my camera and take some awesome photos of God's creation that will just blow your mind away. Yay.. went to travel agency with cousin and her husband and figured out a good deal for five days in the middle of China! Boys and girls, Sam is going hiking.

Side note: I think it's so true that ENFPer's, unlike other extrovert types, like a little privacy to digest all that happened to see if their values align to their actions.
"An ENFP needs to focus on following through with their projects. This can be a problem area for some of these individuals. Unlike other Extraverted types, ENFPs need time alone to center themselves, and make sure they are moving in a direction which is in sync with their values."

It's so weird how accurate the Myers Brigg test is. Lately I just want to be an introvert in order to do all the things I want to do without having to think about other people.

A friend said to me, "you get to do all the weird stuff at your job... photographing celebs in LA, blogging, merchandising in Korea." I said, "well I decided to study the 'weird stuff' in school so I'm doing all the weird stuff that no one thought anyone could make a living off of."
