Last night, I decided to continue working at ISLANDS despite my petty bitching and moaning. I told the pm bartender that I was already looking for another job. While talking to her, I decided to help out with her sidework since I was done for the night. "Seriously, Mark...we'd HATE to lose you." That phrase rebuilt my faith in my co-workers.

I went to a BBQ today in Panorama. It was a birthday for a friend of mine that took Asian American Studies two semesters ago. It was so awesome to see her again and some people I've seen floating around campus. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARISSA! Aileen was nice enough to drive me. I finally got to chit-chat with her a little bit. Thanks for driving me...I guess getting lost was a way for us to talk more.

My faith in people and life has been restored.
