Fairytale

I attended my first Brown Engagement Blessing ceremony yesterday for S&N. It would say it was quite a pleasant culture experience. I think it was mostly stemmed from the fact that i was able to be part of the "back scene" by helping setting up things and being around the bridal party for the entire day. I think if i was to just arrive and not been around to do all those things, i would have been pretty bored.

The engagement ceremony went well, S looked so so beautiful. I think her and N are the most good-looking couple i know. Pretty babies are expected. It was SO SO hot though, i think i sweated up a storm and i was the one that didn't have to wear the traditional clothing which basically meant i got the better end of the deal. Afterwards it was pictures (the bridal party is SO cute) and drinking as down time.

So can i say that brown people can party? Like, even the grown-ups lololol omg it was INSANE. A few drinks and they start blasting reggae and dance hall. I didnt even need to go to the club to dance. And can i also add, that S's mom has got some hot swag. I cannot move like that woman. She is absolutely phenomenon!!!!!

One thing i do want to comment on though, is how envious I am of S&N. They are what you call, blissfully in love with one another. The perfect fairytale. Its not the sappy, barf-worthy kind of romance either. Its real yet storybook-like. They are both so so cool and so much fun when they're together. Everything you want in a relationship, they have with one another. I can even go as far as saying that they remind me a lot of when A and I were together, playful. But so much more. So much better. Lets not forget how much her in-laws LOVES her. And vice versa. The family bond is also visibly strong and its not quite official just yet either so you can only imagine how much stronger it will become when they become official. Honestly, the day just proves that happily ever afters do exist. There are guys out there that want to settle down and be devoted to building a life with you without needing to sacrifice anything. So thank you to the both of you, for giving me hope. Again. Sorta.

Needless to say though- i earned my Scarborough street creds yesterday. haha booya.

But now its TOTAL CRUNCH TIME. My entire day was pretty much wasted because of my hangover. (I drank on an empty stomach AGAIN. I really don't learn do i.)

The main theme for the deck i am creating is Playstation/Xbox's NBA 2K11. I hope being the boy that i am, i can design something so kickass that it doesn't look like a female did it. And then of course get hired and life would be almost perfect again.

Outs.

On Repeat.

Within Temptation – “All I Need”
The Elena and Damon dance scene ep.19.
Can you say CRAZY INTENSE EYE SEX. ahah I love this part.
It was by far the most romantic scene in the entire season.

Tango

The other day the mister got me listening to this song that he discovered. He tends to find the most interesting things for me to watch and listen to. && Now i am so in love with it.

Por Una Cabeza by Carlos Gardel 

and oh-my-god it is one sexy and romantic song.

We MUST learn how to tango.

Just so we can dance to this song (this 2 minutes and 17 seconds song).

Oh how it melts my heartttttt.......and i don't even like or know Tango. haha

Ps. You can watch it here:

Forbidden

I really should be forbidden to watch really sad emo movies that makes my heart hurt and tear & booger pipes turned on. I just finished watching The Time Travelers Wife and I really don't care what the crickets/reviewers/people say- i thoroughly enjoyed it. Despite the fact that the book was much better....and they completely changed the ending and they chucked up about 80% of the novel content- it did not stop me from crying like a baby. I think the last 20 minutes of the movie i continuously cried with no breaks......while wearing a facial mask.

Someone remind me next time to not do a facial during a sad movie. It doesn't do you much good.

There was one part in the movie where Henry (Eric Bana) says to Claire (Rachel McAdams), "I don't want you to spend your whole life waiting for me." - i think at that very moment my heart ripped into ten thousand pieces. SOBS. && "That" part (the fireworks part). HEART RIPPP X SOBSxxxxx.

"It’s dark now and I am very tired. I love you, always. Time is nothing."   Favorite quote in the book! Along with the other 10 zillion ones that are just as grossly sweet.
Thought l'll share. Now i just gotta get back to work.

Be Warned This is LONG

So here i am, a brand new year begins in the Chinese Lunar Calendar and i owe so many days worth of blogging to people whom has express their dislike in my lack-of posts and essentially laziness which cause them great inconvenience aka boredom. hahaha my bad =]

(I don't even know how i am going to do this because i have 2 entries saved up and about six other points of blog worthy things i wanna rant about.........yeah no idea. Its going to be maddd chopppy and tenses jumping all over the place.)

There's been so much shit happening with the TTC and they're virtually under the eyes (and cameras) of every rider. I actually wrote this entry up a couple of days ago but didn't publish it b/c it was half written. Then my cousin coincidentally wrote about the ttc too (Read here) and I was completely inspired to finish it because her thoughts on political and media issues are so welll written : )

Anyways i spend a major of my time on the internet (a commmon fact) and one day it was like the hit of a plague, the topics "#TTC" and "#TTCFails" begins trending on my tumblr (Toronto sector) and Twitter. It was all because of that unfortunate picture of the ttc man asleep at his post. Since that day, everyone's been constantly questioning why our municipal taxes are being spent on naps and inefficiency.

I take the TTC far more than some of my friends because of my handicap (lack of license) so i would think i am able to share some opinions because i have had my share of both good and bad experiences. There's been mad shit ones where i recall the time when i had to ask the entire bus for change because the busdriver man didnt bother looking at how much change i put in and didnt believe me. Or when it was what felt like -50 outside and TWO EMPTY bus drove right past me and i got on the third bus and totally bitched out the driver for his colleagues douche-bagness. At the same time i give MAD MAD respect to those bus drivers that drive the highschool routes. The bullshit they take from students is unbelievable and i remember very well a couple that were beyond cheerful and polite.

That said, um I think the situation has become very unfair for the drivers now that the younger generation (b/c we are the ones with the blueberries and iphones) has begun "stalking" their drivers every move. Its like people are completely expecting there to be more screw-ups. I feel like the busdriver can't even pick his nose on the job because then his one hand will be off the steering wheel and then the WHOAAA HE JUST PICKED HIS NOSE-pic will appear on the net and the public frowns on people that picks their nose. Seriously. Is that necessary?  BOOHOO. GET OVER IT PEOPLE.

I am completely bored and annoyed by this comedy. 

My past block of text may seem like I am completely pro-giving our taxes to people to nap on the job but that isn't the actual issue I'm describing. That incident was separate, unfortunate and stupid.

We all know it happens. It happens in every work environment. But nothing has ever been documented to give pressure to the TTC to "do" something about it. Its a good idea for the TTC to "tighten their belts" with their employees but at the same time people really need to stop it with the whole freaking-out-over-a-bathroom-break comedy or verbally harassing employees on the job (calling them useless and lazy, etc.).

We all need the TTC, regardless of the basketful of rotten, bitter employees. But why must harass the ones that ARE doing their jobs and minding their own business? Must we REALLY make the rest rotten and bitter for the mistake of those others? Shit without them driving our ass around we go NO WHERE BIATCHESSSS.

Just a thought. Stop being mean people.

The other night the mister and i SUCCESSFULLY watched Avatar Holymamas. After THREE attempts, this being our fourth were able to watch it in IMAX3D &&& was first in line and we got the sweeeetest seats in the entire theatre and chomped away on super awesome sneaked-in Chinese chips. lol We were actually in line for a good 2 hours ish and spent that hour watching The Hangover on lx's iPhone. It was such an ingenious move because our 2 hours did not feel like it.


Side note: Hangover is SUCH a wicked-ass movie. I cannot get over how freaking funny it was. I swear its the first comedy since the Wedding Crashers where i've laughed my ass off like that. Nothing else compared in between!!!! (Except maybe Tropic Thunder...that was disgustingly funny hahah). I think there's going to be a 2nd one and hopefully its going to be just as great. Zach Galifianakis (Alan) for the WINNNNN haha!!!!

So the movie situation was almost perfect- us being first in line, we have a great movie playing, snacks hidden away in my hobo bag, Starbucks on the side. An absolute WIN until- i had to pee. I was hoping i can hold it until i was in the theater, dropped off my shit and then come out and let it roll......but that did not happen because it was 10 minutes before the movie started and i told myself l'll take the chance and make a dash. I took my dash to come back and discovered they started to let people in. But the messed up part was i had to line up at the END OF THE LINE. OMGGGG. The thought did not AT ALL occur to me that i had to RE-LINE up because people arent going to let me butt in just because "my boyfriend is already inside". So yeah having to wait ten minutes to get to my sweet ass seats was kinda a waste of time haha

Again, the too perfect situation had to be spoiled by the HORRIBLE embarrassment of the ASIAN race by this family who sat next to us. I swear, every damn thing you AREN'T suppose to do at the theatre- THEY DID and they had to do it LOUDLY and in CHINESE. holyfaks. Kids, at the movies you are not suppose to:

• Run into the theatres when there is CLEARLY a lineup of PEOPLE waiting to go inside 
• Spill your JUMBO undrank soft drink on the carpet and leave it there
• Literally SCREAM at the top of your lungs everytime an animal attack scene comes on the screen (even the 4 yr old daughter did not scream HALF as loud as the mama)
• Leave your phone on NORMAL and let your phone ring for a good 30 seconds
• AND THEN discuss in chinese LOUDLY with your spouse about whether to call the person back
• AND AFTER THAT decides to call the person back and SPEAK CHINESE IN FULL VOLUME

Dot dot dot. ARGH I wanted to shoot them. These are the type of people that you hate because they TAINT the image of Asians.

Otherwise though the movie was pretty good haha. The plot was interesting, the world was interesting. At the same time though i think if i was to watch it in 2D i would be completely bored so big ups to IMAX3D lol It was worth staying out until 130am on a week night lol

###

For the rest of the other week nights - i completely went off of my BEAST MODE and went into EATING mode and have been eating way to effing much again which is NOT GOOD for the upcoming CUBA trip. Sobs. Now that CYN is over and the feasts has gone by i can focus on being a dieting machine again. On a shopping note I really want these shoes (not necessarily for the trip, just in general) lol

Beautiful. I agree.

My original thought before getting into shoes- was for half of the week i was working on the mister's Valentine's Day present. This year he decided on our behalf that we're going to craft/make something for each other instead of buying something. I guess since we both are very hands-on this is always "fun" and challenging. It's also great because we save a bundle lol. Since VDAY is over, its safe for me to load pictures of my DIY project that i was ranting about working late nights on for the past week on MSN.

That my friends, is a MOCK-UP of my vision. What i wanted to create was something for the mister to put in his room because he's currently dong his reno. I also didnt want to create something that he won't display and ends up under his bed so whatever i needed to come up with has to be CHIC and display-worthy. In the end i came up with doing Wine Bottles with Customized Labels.

That is the final product!!!

Basically what i did was i pretty much stole the artwork and textures from an existing wine company and just photoshop-ed and added in my own quotes. Since i am not SELLING these and they are for PERSONAL use, i'm in no way exploiting nor infringing on any copyright legal boundaries nor am i taking ANY credit for the work of the illustrations and patterns. Aside from all the legal mumbo jumbo i had to write there in case someone who is all too serious and decides to sue me i have to cover my ass somehow.................the project turned out pretty nicely doesnt it!!!! I wrote three letters and theyre all to be opened on Valentines Day this year, 2011 and 2012. i glued/sealed the 2011 and 2012 bottles so the mister can't go in and PEEEK. mwahah. Clever arent i.

I hope he likes them. Even though it aint no-

"manga-inspired graphic design on a Starbucks coffee cup featuring a photograph of Megan fox on SNL inside a professionally interior designed room with jazz music playing in the background wearing urban outfitter-like clothing eating rocky road ice cream with bacon bits sprinkled on top while playing a marvel video game that consists of a character who's wearing a star wars shirt who's just finished a filet o fish and now is napping and dreaming about DOTA characters frying chickens." 

(i quote Mr.J word for word LOLOL). i think my gift is very cute and pretty. haha

VDAY itself last night was pleasant even though there was its bumps but nothing that i won't get over. We went for a nice dinner down by the King Street West strip of Restaurants that lx and i frequent. I think we're going to make it a goal to try every single one of those restaurants on that street. Anyways we go to the one that he liked the most and again he always chooses the best dishes to eat and i always gets stuck with the mediocre one. The night had to end very early because he has to work today at 8am :(( Not before i get my crafted/DIY gift though- HOMEMADE CRANBERRY BLISS BARS baby!!!!! The STARBUCKS KIND. (FYI: My all-time favorite Pastry)

VS

Okay they seriously taste like 95% identical to the ones they have at Starbucks so i freaking hit the jackpot. I am going to be fattttttttttt by Wednesday because i already ate 2.5 bars today. I'M AN ADDICT HELP ME SOMEONE. Thnx Mister!!!! Lurveeeee <333 Maybe next year he can duplicate the Red Velvet Cupcakes ^^ haha!

FFFOUND

HAHAH omg i absolutely had to share this because the picture reminds me SO SO SSO much of lx and i. Me being the super fatty girl and whining about him not telling me he loves me enough while hes just freaking shaking his head and wondering how the hell did he put himself in this predicament ahahhaha ohmygod i love him so much. ai.

&&&&&

Oh i HAVE to make a special mention to the delightfully, romantically pretty A whom (i assumed) sent out a HANDCRAFTED Valentines Day card to all the GCM girls. My dear you are perhaps one of the romantic girls i know. Please do keep it up because it makes me feel special knowing i am still in your heart. =]]]]

&&&&&

A super ghetto shoutz filled with love goez outz to my home girl K for being my lover and calling me out to have a crazy rendevous with EJS after the mister dropped me off on VDAY night.

Still here? I'm almost done i swear.

Now we're kind of back to the beginning, Chinese New Years festivities been going on the past weekend. Which also means Chinese People EVERYWHERE. I swear if it wasn't for the fact it is the New Years there would have been RED spilling everywhere because there was SO many idiots roaming the streets/markets/temple. Thinking about it makes me so angry!!! i.e. the lady i yelled at who tried to push her shopping cart out the ENTER door when there EXIT door was COMPLETELY FREAKING EMPTY!!! OMGG Who does that!!! Or the people at the temple who begins PUSHING you even though there is half of Markham's population of Asians in one room. PEOPLE- you're lucky you all have little torches (the lighted incense) in your hands or else you would have gotten a nice verbal beating from my brother and i.

I really shouldn't be so bitter for the new years. i need more hot yoga in my life haha.

So Year of the Tiger is unbelievably depressing for us big Orange Cats of 86'. My dad was just reading my horoscope to me and it kept on getting more and more glooomy. From terrible CAREER to big changes to RELATIONSHIPs (thats freaking the shit out of moi) to poor HEALTH and lack of MONEY. What the eff man. There was NO sunshine, not even a PEEK in the three articles he read to me first and i re-examined second. Nopes. No hope.

There you have it Tigers (majority of my friends)- this is the year of being patient, calm, rational and no attitude because that attracts trouble, doom and poorness. Basically dont act like a psycho bitch and you'll be fine. Bright side though, all you Oxs and Roosters are good! haha.

A Grand Happy Chinese New Years to allllllllllllllllllll =D

###

So before i end what i think might be the LONGEST entry i have every freaking typed in my history of blogging, i thought l'll share that i dreamt of Robert Downey Jr. last night and the first thing i did this morning was wake up to download Sherlock Holmes to watch again.................... Go freaking figure!!!! I don't even remember talking about the actor/ironman. Me and my celebrity dreams eh!!!!!

That said thought he is quite an attractive forty-five year old man. Who wouldn't wanna tap that? HAHA Okay I am a freak.


i swear i won't ever make anyone read through all that shit at once. I promise more periodic updates.

BYE!

Spring

(via Source)

I am completely intoxicated with the thoughts of pastels, tights, dresses, blazers, shorts, light scarves and over-sized sweaters. I am SO SO ready for you Spring. Please come sooooon.

My deepest and most sincere condolences to my friends and their families whom has lost someone recently. I'm utterly shocked at how close these incidents are to each other but it only shows how life is too short. Life should be extravagant and to think too much and not enjoy it defeats the purpose of living. We should not take for granted and appreciate those who means the most to us and not hold regrets.

fffound

(via Source, Source, Source, Source )

All in common: LIBRARY! In my future i shall have one too.

It will be a sweeeet day when i put all my Deluxe Editions of Harry Potter and Twilight on the shelf.

AW!

Enough said. That is the most creative proposal i have EVER seen and i had to share even though i am probably digging my grave by doing this. ANYWAYS, Its right up there with the bakerella proposal (that can be seen here). Maybe its extra awesome because its a "social" media/blog thing and im a big social media ho. Oh-how i love seeing sweet things like this popping up in my dashboards. Some men are just so creative. Marissa Nystrom must be so happy right now haha

the most wonderful time of the year

(via Source)

Yes, Starbuck's Red Cups are back!!!!!
&& that also means the pastry that ive been waiting for oh so patiently all year has returned!!!!! 3 words: Cranberry. Bliss, Bars. ^_____^ I don't know why but Starbucks during Christmas means a great deal to me. A gloomy cold day can be cheered up and warmed up by some heavenly goodness in the red cup. I heart so so much. Can't wait to head over to a SB with lx.

Anyways, thanks everyone for all the birthday wishes and gifts! Yes, i totally suck for not doing anything (again) this year. I'm just a big emo-burger when it comes to celebrating my birthday. I'd honestly rather go, dress up, by a new dress and celebrate other's birthdays : )

However i do foresee the following for the month of November:
- a much overdue movie/dinner/starbucks combo session with the boys
- ET's Hot Pot Dinner
- Graphics Canada
- Ernie's Birthday Event
- My Italian dinner date with K
- Drinks&Music with the Girls for my Birthday
- Cousin's Annual Spectacular Birthday
- virtually no gymming = more weight gain
- lots of money spending : (

I am completely restraining myself from spending money. It's really hard because i have this new princess-complex where i can't wear the same dress twice if the clubbing/party/dinner event has cameras (which is 100% of the time b/c im the camera keeper) and i have like four of those to go to this month......Yes. i completely agree how terribly rotten i am. I have no conclusion to this thought aside from that lol

I do however am craving for a new messenger-like bag to carry my laptop. I've been bringing my laptop to work and it sits so uncomfortably in my current bags during my 20minute travel (haha) and i fear the discomfort will kill me when it snows. I've been eyeing this white vintage-style adidas bag and i can get it for 35% off (because VisaPerks! ^^) which comes out to $49.48 (incld. shipping&taxes..) versus it being 59.99 in stores. Shall i? It would look great with the new winter jacket, glasses and uggs i plan to purchase come-winter?

Hmmm i sound so much like a spoiled princess that needs her shopping-fix, in the past 2 paragraphs. :S



i swear im not.



bye!

we like to be silly

Today marks our 2.5 years.

Yeahhhhhhhhh that's it : ))))))

old-school love

Last night on facebook, the first Wex (my highschool)-sweethearts from my grade changed their status to ENGAGED. As expected as it was and we all saw it coming but rather it was a matter of time of when it will happen- i am at complete loss of words when it comes to describing how unbelievably happy i am for them. Even though i've had no direct contact (well maybe except for the groom-to-be, i had an occasion few PSY classes with him over the 4 yrs at Ryerson) since high school, it's still great to see them tie the knot (finally). They're both really kind people and definitely deserve each other.

In a way i think i'm way TOO happy for them? Given the fact i don't exactly hang with them haha I guess this news for me is also validation that fairytale endings do exist. For the past couple of years i've been pretty skeptical of this (especially when it comes to highschool sweethearts). With all the break-ups i've heard, witnessed and been part of- it makes it all the harder when everyone around you (including yourself) isn't living that fairytale dream that you believe in. Thus with them tying the knot, they're living proof to me that old-school love can survive (!!) in this modern day era where greed, money, technology and ambitions can destroy all that.

Whichhhhhh would explain why i am SO SO happy because they're going AGAINST the grain!! (ha ha GCM nerd joke) A big congrats to them! I'm excited to see her load their wedding pictures.


Up next, G&N, ET&Jules, and enoughabout-you&A on the alter list lol. I'm waiting for those facebook status changes.


Side-note,
Face is slowly recovering, neck is still gross but on the path to recovery. What i'm actually quite fearful of right now is the swelling around the eye area. B/c the eye area is extra sensitive, i fear that the wrinkles that are visibly present are going to stay there permanently. Shit i was telling the mister last night i look like i'm forty and that scares the fcuk out of me. I've been going out (only for work and either walmart or price chopper) without makeup on for the past week (FYI: There hasn't been a day where I have left the house without eyeliner on since 2004) all while praying i don't bump into anyone i know, or anyone lx knows (i don't want to embarrass him). I don't understand how something can appear so quick but can take SO long to go away.
Unbelievable.


Oh and i bought New Moon tickets for myself and twin.
Even though we are a month and two weeks early. giggle giggle.

A New Dream

After seeing this picture, it inspired me to want to go to Paris and sip Starbucks!!! All while wearing a pretty outfit with hot shoes. Linking arms with the mister and perhaps be chomping on some french baguette with cheese. (inside jk. hahah)


It would be suchhhhhh a classy and romantic affair.



Of course sipping Starbucks wouldn't be the only reason why i want to go to Paris, duh.



Word Vomit blog entry in the typing. Stay tuned.

Who says black people cant be intelligent and profound?

"i thought we agreed on celebrating our anniversary, ANNUALly"

Getting sick.

I can so feel it.

Tense/aching jaw, stuffy nose, heavy head, semi sore-throat, pashmina scarf not sheltering me enough and clearly not enough warm green tea.

Sighs.

But a big Happy 29months and two days to the mister and i ! Despite him not counting months but rather years, i still do it anyways! I count both years and months. And days. When i'm really bored.

Bye!

I finally get why. It clicked after reading that line.

I'm currently having a terrible evening (i'm sorry for being so bitter on twitter)
I don't know why but after seeing that balloon picture i feel a little bit better. The picture makes me feel hopeful and light, instead of that heavy feeling i carried with me as i took my "cooling down" walk up and down Steeles.

The Time Travelers Wife

I finished reading The Time Travelers Wife last night and to my dismay, I did not cry as much as I intended/wanted to (it didn’t stop me from calling lx sobbing though haha). I remembered I cried like a baby when I first read A Walk to Remember and I expected pretty much the same thing with this novel. I was a little bit disappointed but nonetheless I enjoyed the love story, and the concepts and themes that are applicable to the novel (that sounded lame).

Just a general synopsis (even though everyone knows what its about) , the story is about a man (Eric Bana in the movie) who has a genetic disorder that causes him to "time travel" against his own will. What that means is he can't really "control" when he disappears/reappears and where to (past or future). Its even more strange because when he time travels he leaves behind anything that is not a part of his body, meaning he'll show up naked 101% of the time. It's a little "weird" but it worked out for the story lol Anyways he meets his wife (Rachel McAdams) for the FIRST time when she's 6 and he's 43 (i believe), but fast-tracking to the present, he doesn't officially meet her until he's 28 and shes 20. If that makes ANY sense at all, it would mean for the first 28 years of his life, he does not know she existed until she meets him but vice versa, she has actually known of his existance since the age of 6........get it? No i didn't think so. lol ANYWAYS, the story jumps back and forth from the female protanganist to the male, from year to year, age to age and in the end, everything simply connected.

As flawed as the story sounds, and as much discussion there is to the concept that was invented in the story- bottomline was that it was good lol. Even though there was honestly way too much “love making” scenes, I loved how real the author tried to make the characters be.
What I mean was, [SPOILER WARNING] the author did not at all try to sugar-coat the birth scene. Normally on TV, movies and novels they tend to skimp out on the details of what goes on when a woman goes into labor. What I particularly loved about this portion of the story was there was no discretion or sugar-coating. You see the female protagonist totally losing it, she’s swearing her ass off, the husband is all tense and nervous, there was sweat, and there was pain that you could feel jump out at you (before and after the birth).

For someone like me who wants a family (and as everyone in high-school said, l’ll have a whole farm of kids haha), I am not at all reminded of how much PAIN I must endure in order to have one because everything is just so-easy on tv. Especially for someone like me who is particularly sensitive to pain, my best friend wonders how im going to do it haha

That said, I’m glad to read a love story that does not skimp out on (or completely eliminate) the pain and heartaches that must be endured in order to give meaning to love and intensify a relationship. (Also because it was oh-so romantic and who doesn’t love romance? kekekkkeekke)

I think I WILL be watching the movie version (despite reviews, ratings, jennuts advisory lol), hopefully with my bff. I don’t know if I can cry in front of her though. I remember we both were watching something super sad in highschool and I wasn’t able to cry for some reason ahhaha oh, and also her and twin has a thing where they enjoy making fun of me when I cry to really stupid things (i.e. Remember when #9 was hung/executed and died?!?! In some old TVB drama- yeah, that one didn’t die for YEARS) lollllll Also I love Rachel McAdams and Eric Bana is seductive in his own manly-special way.

Yay. Now onto The Host!

I swear I am the biggest wimp in the world.

I cannot tolerate any sort of pain, whether its the bf popping a pimple for me (his favorite past-time. I know, its lovely), a nasty toothache or getting a needle. I think pretty much everybody knows this and just calls me a big crybaby (a big -EFF you to everyone) when I whine about something that hurts.....it probably does to whatever extent.

Anyways the other day, a nurse drop by my house to give me a physical because my insurance lady says I had to get one in order to qualify blah blah blah. I was a little bit...NERVOUS at first and I got a lil more panicky when she began to set up the needle to get blood. To quickly summarize my fear of drawing blood, the last time I had to get blood was when I had my Kidney infection. It basically took three nurses, three different needle heads (I don’t even know why they used the super big one for the second try?!?!?) and about five attempts to PROBE for my vein. It was freaking ridiculous and of course I cried like a newborn. I mean if you had people fishing for your vein when you were in serious pain already, you get kinda traumatized. Which brings me back to present day, the kind Filipino-looking-but-was-actually-Chinese nurse told me she doesn’t “go fishing” for veins and I should keep on talking and think *Happy Thoughts* when she proceeds to insert the needle. Haha so according to my brother who was in the next room, I began talking non-stop to the air for like a good five minutes with almost no breaks.

His words- you didn’t shut up for one second there.

Sighs. I guess I do have a tendency to babble when im nervous. Back to my talking, so while I was talking I realized everything I said related back to the mister and his nephews and niece. I babbled on about how we met, what we like to do, his cute nephews and niece and how much I adore them, on and on. At the end of making it through two vials of blood, the kind nurse said to me, “You are one happy girl” and I smiled like an idiot at her while my arm began to bled profusely where the needle was.........ANYWAYS lol It made me realize (once again) in the recent years how much happier I have become and its still very unbelievable given my terrible relationship history and the shitty luck that i have had with guys. IN CONCLUSION, what i am trying to say is I feel lucky that I am able to have happy thoughts to think about when I am most scared.

........barf.


i know. but i was in blogging mode and had to write about someeeeething.

Randoms:

• Yesterday evening, BodyCombat combat-ed the sh!t out of me. i couldnt even make it through the entire class. Kay fails.
• Skinny Asian chicks that go work out does not annoy me. Skinny Asian chicks that go work out in booty shorts ALSO does not annoy me. On the other hand, skinny Asian chicks that DO NOT work out and show up at the gym in booty shorts and sits on weight machines and does not do anything but talk to her other skinny Asian chick friend with a low cut top who is also like her just sitting on a weight machine - ANNOYS ME. I dont get what theyre doing, are they trying to MOCK ALL THE FAT PPL IN THE ROOM!?!? I am like sweating my ass off (you do not want to see me at the gym. i look like a fat panda with crazy hair gasping for air on a treadmill) and i see them tippy toe-ing from one machine to another. Am i not catching on to some new miracle exercise routine where tippy toe-ing around the weights machine will help you lose weight? Hell if that was the case l'll tippy toe around the weights machine for two hours straight if i have to. Someone let me know please.
• To finish off the previous point, when my cousin and i head back to the locker room to shower and do our respective business, these girls trot in again (their lockers were next to my cousins. i wasnt stalking them) and dont even bother to wash their face, change or anything. But then why would they need to do all that when all they did was come to the gym to NOT SWEAT. *thumbs up*
  
• Later that evening after gymming, I RANDOMLY saw Tall Jenn in the Bamburgh Circle Plaza. I msged her and told her she looked really distressed lol.
• That was my eventful evening of failed combat routines, annoying Asians, pho and starbucks.
  
• Today, My hair slightly resembles Aslan the lion (the lion from Chronicles of Narnia). Kay fails AGAIN.

Good Day!

Once upon a Time, there was an island where all the feelings lived: Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge, and all of the others including Love. One day it was announced to the feelings that the island would sink, so all repaired their boats and left. Love was the only one who stayed. Love wanted to persevere until the last possible moment. When the island was almost sinking, Love decided to ask for help.

Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love asked Richness for help. Richness answered, "No, I can't...There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you."
Love decided to ask Vanity who was also passing by in a beautiful vessel, "Vanity, please help me!" "I can't help you, Love. You are all wet and might damage my boat," Vanity answered.
Sadness was close by so Love asked Sadness for help, "Sadness, let me go with you." "Oh...Love, I am so sad that I need to be by myself!"

Happiness passed by Love too, but she was so happy that she did not even hear when Love called her!

Suddenly, there was a voice, "Come Love, I will take you." It was an elder. Love felt so blessed and overjoyed that he even forgot to ask the elder her name. When they arrived at dry land, the elder went her own way. Love realizing how much he owed the elder asked Knowledge, another elder, "Do you know who helped me?"

"It was Time," Knowledge answered." Time?" asked Love. "But why did Time help me?" Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered, "Because only Time is capable of understanding how great Love is."
