puzzle 20.

I am stumped.  Why isn't the answer $80?  The last answer I put was the right answer out of 4 attempts.  Though I have the answer right, I am still not satisfied until I understand why my guess is correct.

Omg, I realized what I did wrong on my first try after being away from it for awhile.  It was so obvious, I should have organized my work better.

I need to finish FFXII and then X, so I can finally replay Kingdom Hearts.. lol.  I've been watching the intro for Birth By Sleep. I think I want that game.  But that also means that I need to upgrade my PSP.  I have the old fat PSP from 2004, and it's still at version 1.5 (just so that I can play old Gameboy ROMS and SNES)... maybe I should upgrade it after I finish Final Fantasy V, which I started a few years ago but never finished.  I'm just not hooked to that game.

It takes me so long to start a paper.

Anyways, Oprah's episode featured teachers.  It's inspiring.  I hope my way of teaching is effective.  I'm feeling nervous now because I have yet to meet a teacher like myself; a teacher with my kind of style.  And then there are the thoughts of how I'm going to teach Spanish only speaking students.  Most likely I'll land a job in some ghetto elementary school.  But they need good teachers like myself the most anyways, I have to change that way of thinking.

And I have to show that I'm capable of being an excellent student myself by focusing on this paper.

Day transitions to night at 2000.

I like writing in this everyday regardless of how much I'd want to try to keep myself quiet, and how much I don't like hearing myself talk, or just seeing words of mine in general.  Even if no one reads this. I've always kept a blog each year, but they get lost within the depths of deleted content.  From 2004-05, I used Xanga and posted MapleStory adventures.  I guess I gave up 2005-2006, my true emotional year.  I came back 2006-2008 with a peculiar attitude that I try to forget because I don't like myself those years, mind it's quite embarrassing if I say so myself.  In the year of 2009, people reading this always influence my decisions of what to post, so my mind escaped from being too personal.  I'm striving to make this personal so I can reflect on it.  This is 2010, and that's what I'm going to try to do.

It's been 6 years.  I still feel like my writing hasn't improved, and it hasn't improved.  What can I do?  Just be genuine, I guess?  Not that I'm here to become a better writer.  So why did I even say that in the first place. HmmM.
