I'm in *love* with my new computer. Say what you will about Windows 7 but it is a godsend and SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO smooth. Why didn't I upgrade sooner? I have been trying to update my norton, nero, firefox, bookmarks, itunes and just about 23454677 other things. Nowhere near done and yet I'm soooooo drained. I went to Benihana's for lunch and Chili's for dinner. I think I ate more today than I did yesterday.

I went to Fry's to pick up my computer. I love it there, they gave me a 2 year warranty and it was run in and run out. I did pick up the last tower for sale on the price I wanted, so I got hella lucky. I did find Mamba's (I know, random) while in line and the last time I saw those was when I stayed in Inglewood with illaparatzo. They even had SOUR Mamba's but I didn't grab those. I should have! Next time.

Overrall, I love having time off work but I do miss it. I have been blowing money left and right and I know next week it'd be nothing but work, so I should enjoy it. I'm so grateful to have my family and friends over to spend time with me.

Tomorrow is the 29th. The day that I felt my first real major lost in my life; I love you G. I lovelovelovelovelovelove you. You are my rage and love. Thankyou.

I noticed I started to get lazy in the morning and grab the first headband or clip I see and go, usually I'll pick up what's closest and either throw it on the floor or put it in my purse. Lately I have been wearing the same handful for the pass month and I should organize it so I finally torn everything down and got ready to organize my stuff.




Come into the madness -> ( Read more... )




If you have time on a completely different topic, this blew my mind.

I AM READY FOR 'THIS IS IT'. BE JEALOUS. THIS JACKET IS AMAZING AND ALL MINE.

Hello world. Been working. NO LIFE FOR ME. I've spent more time at work in the last seven days than I think is legal. I wish I could do 24 hrs shifts, but no. 18 is the max I can do. A bit of drama with paperwork and residents throwing themselves on the door for attention but it's all good. The only downside is I EAT SO MUCH AT WORK THAT IT IS RIDIC. Everyone has food, so it's always some free for all at work, and damn, working on all the shifts means me talking to everyone and sharing food. I brought in 30 egg rolls from King Eggroll just because I was in the mood and my buddy Brenda swore up and down that she would try it, so I can drag her there and make her eat there with me every day. I love that place. The cabbage that they slip in the egg rolls are sooooooooooo GOOD. I can't get enough. I want it now.

Um.. So I'm working and I will be happy with this paycheck, but what does it matter because I won't get getting my Sgt. Pepper outfit that I wanted made for Halloween in time and that just bums me out. I really, really, really, really, really wanted it since our theme at work is "Famous People". I don't want to do MJ because everyone is going to be MJ this year (that and Gaga, you know it's true.) so I figure just be a zombie. If I had skill with horror/gore makeup, I'd be a zombie that looked like it came out of a Lucio Fulci movie. So we'll see, if I'm not lazy and actually get out there and go shopping. There is a giant new Nordstrom Rack opening up this Friday, I figure I'd buy clothes from there and rip them up. But knowing me I'll be a lazy fuck and bum around taking pics of everyone else on Halloween. Grr.

I was suppose to go to the Casino for another overnight trip on the 20-21st, but I lost SO MUCH MONEY when I went on the 4th, I played won and lost xxx3's more than what I won. Blah. But I had lots of fun, great swimming, great spa area, great eats, great company. *_* So I figure that I might as well as skip it and work, so I can make up for lost $$$. Use that money to go shopping when I drive down to SF on the 24th.

Been listening to Macca like as if my life depended on it. TONS OF ALBUMS in my lap. So beautiful, just digging them out of boxes and relistening to them makes me so, so, so, so, happy. FLAMING PIE IS SO MUCH BETTER WITH AGE. I remember walking to Tower Records in the 90's and buying the album for around 16.95 and there was a listening party and I sat around with old white men talking about the albums. I was a kid in the 90's and went to tons of listening parties and clubs when the anthologies and all the Macca stuff came out. I always went alone and always went on foot. I think I was 15 back them, how odd I was. I never really made any friends, besides the old white dudes, but never really anyone my age. (I say white, because it's what stood out to me in my mind, the straight laced white dudes in suits and ties who listen to Macca, I dunno. Old school-beatle fans?)

.. LOLZ. And people say music is expensive now! 16.95 was and still is a lot for a cd and this was back in 95-ish, when my parents would give me a 20.00 every once and a while and send me on my way to Tower Records on Blossom Hill where I bought my first cd, ever. (It was Magical Mystery Tour.) I had a big cd player that I kept in my pocket and it would skip when I ran home so I could sit and read the liner notes.

I will cut this entry short because my sister just came back from LA and I have been waiting endlessly for her.

OMG. Who would have thought 4chan knows their stuff. I saw this AND DIED.

I have been obsessed with roll on's. You know the perfume to carry in your purse? The rolls on are just so nice and so easy to carry around. I bought Stella McCartney's, Marc's Daisy and a Juicy one but I really, really, really want Kenzo's FLOWER which is sold out at the two Sephora's I went to. I WANT. That scent is my favorite. I should order it on but I'm lazy, I use my CC too much. I will never pay this thing off. No matter how much I pay off, I almost end up using it out of laziness and treating too many people.

I went to the bookstore yesterday and met a nice lady who liked MJ and the Beatles, she was much older but we talking about the stereo mixes and how certain songs aren't listenable anymore! Some of the white album is a bit hard on the ears when you listen to it with headphones. Like While my Guitar Gently weeps sounds crazy-loud with headphones! Wild Honey Pie I have to skip. We talked of MJ and how her husband is over the glorification (and it's true, it's a bit much now. I love MJ with all my heart but really now..) It's a shame it took his death for people to take a step back and realize his talent. How many legends we really have left? I mean we have Macca, but the guy is turning 69 (68?) next year? DAMN. Might as well make it 70. I told my sister no matter what, we are flying out if he tours again, the setlist for the few shows he did this year was crazy-good. CRAZY GOOD. CRAZY-GOOD.

Sadness at work, I was really close with one of the residents' wife who use to come down and visit her husband every now and then, she was cool, she had an awesome dog who looked like mine and I would always vent to her about my dog and when he hurt himself she was the first person I went to, to ask what I should do. For an old white lady (and I mention the race because most of the White ladies at my work take forever to warm up to me, or are always cautious because of my hair, tattoos or age.) she really liked me right away, never judged me or my dog and we were cool. But she fell the other night at home and died that morning. SHOCKED BEYOND BELIEF. I wasn't at work but my friend told me, the whole crew went it to tell the husband who flipped out and I know he is going to shut down and refuse all meals. It's going to be tough, but I tip my hat to Mrs. Grey. Classy lady.



A photo of my dog half way on the sofa. Awwwww~

I want new shoes. But which do I get?


taken from where can one buy these in the US? OMG. They remind me of MJ.

I love boots but they are a pain to wear, why can't they be as comfortable as chucks?



The grey is kinda fug, but look at them in black

If I were to get chucks, I was thinking either black or leather.

I defiantly want to get my hands on dirnt's macbeth's. I have only seen the black/blue ones or the ones that are only canvas.



beautiful.



While I am using my green day tote, I want to invest in a real purse soon. I always use tote bags and can't do the whole purse thing no matter how I want to. I just need to carry my whole life with me.

I just printed out and binded Chapters 1-20 and it was almost 60 pages. This will be my fourth time re-reading this epic Green Day fic. *falls over* Now I just need to find it's MCR counterpart and I'm set! That and I NEED to make a fanfic rec page; just so I have something to go back to and read when I'm bored.

(recced this back in 05. Going to print it out AGAIN and read it. Oh what is MY LIFE.)

Ok, I had this crazy cold that was kicking my ass, so I sucked it up went to the Doctor, got a nasopharyngeal swab which was interesting. Always read about it, always watched it get done but never really had it done to me. The tingling and stinging was crazy painful and I coughed for like ten minutes straight. He will call me tomorrow to let me know what is going on. Until then sleep, rest, drink fluids and just rest. I went to work yesterday from 5am-3pm and then slept from 4pm till 4am this morning so my body is all kinds out of wack. I have been drifting from room to room, out of boredom mostly. Figure with my time off, I WILL do my reviews and get them up. So first, the Vegas trip. Tons of pics under the cut. Yay. Also, a unusual amount of George Wallace ads are under the cut as well, you have been warned.

Milpitas is awesome, nothing but love. Asian's dig green. I usually get nothing but scorn lately with the green hair (seriously, with all the colors I have done, green is bringing nothing but hate.) I wish I had more cash, but I am saving for Green Day merch, but I do want to go back in Sept and do my xmas shopping there. THERE WAS SO MUCH STUFF TO BUY. I did get my Aunt's birthday gift and I picked up six new headbands. But I went mostly to blow my money and waist line at Sheng Kee bakery where I bought:



Coconut, Ham & Cheese, Custard, Chocolate and Pineapple. Mmmmmm. I even went back a second time to get more chocolate and the lady said I was so ~*beautiful*~ with my hair and smile because nothing makes me happier than well, food. I forget Asian's like it fat and like to see people eat. At least they humor me and don't hate. I want to go back and buy enough to bring back for my coworkers. They would love that stuff. I would even buy tuna and hotdog and give it to the two coworkers I don't like. Haha.



Look at me, all determined. I don't play.

I went and shopped. I bought a few new headbands. I think I'm set for Green Day. 19 days till my first show! August is TOMORROW! The month I have been waiting more. After Green Day, it'd be the crack down to save up for a down payment for a new car because next year it's RN school like my parents have been dreaming of. I'll have more than enough money to stop working full time, and get that rn stuff done.

LA this weekend. THANK GOD. I need a break. Tomorrow will be my 7th day, of 12 hour shifts. Day 5 was an 18 hour shift. I haven't been going to the gym, I feel dreadful. Not happy with my crew. I love my AM shift, but I hate being put on the spot whenever there is some sort of confrontation and I have to speak for my crew to the boss or any other type of authority I have to visit. Today was weird with the human resources people because someone did something to my file and someone switched me from Full Time for the last four years to part time and that made my rate and status do something funny. For a milisecond there they weren't going to bring me back to my full time status and I marched right up to my Boss, the big boss, who I have been nothing but loyal to since day one she came to the building and she put in writing that I'm full time status and her right hand man. LOLZ. No lie, that's sweet. It's nice to know she can trust me 100000000% and goes to bat for me. Oh work, you have been killing me lately. There is so much tension at the place, that the things I COULD tell you all but it'd be TMI. Really, you don't want to know.

Anyway, LA this weekend, a nice long three days. Going to see the MJ exhibit. Hopefully I don't die in traffic, it's been a while. Harry Potter in what? A week. No Doubt in three weeks. Then tons of birthday parties to go to in August, but August only means one thing. TWO WORDS: Green Day. Hopefully after the tour, I'll get my lyrics tattooed on. Ahahaha. I'm soooooooo lame, but it has to be done.

ETA: I broke my phone and now have this blackberry that is killing me. So I'm so, so, so, so, so, so sorry that I haven't texted or texted half ass or have dropped/missed calls. SO many people called me over AX that was the time the phone busted. I hate to give people the run around or the impression that I'm not getting back to you. So it's my phone, it sucks. It's still taking like 5 mins to text someone back. I have tons of voicemails but no idea how to check them. It sucks. I need to buy a new phone soon. I say it before, I say it again, just give me a call and if I don't pick up, I'll get back to you, I promise.

Man, I want this so bad. When is it coming out? Is it out already? I hope the Macy's and Nordstroms nearby will actually carry the new stuff. Their selection is so poor with age old lines or filled with returned merch that they don't know what to do with.
