this week
last week the stars were not pointing in my direction.
this week however, i feel, will shape up to be a good week.
really a great week. and i have a good feeling about the next few weeks as well.
(minus the fact that i have bio lab at 7:30am).

thanks a lot paul
ever since paul posted a screen shot of me from a video chat we had, my sn is the top image result on google.
in the screenshot, my sn is present.
every time i sign on ichat, i get all sorts of weird messages and video chat requests from people. the weird thing is, it's usually young girls, 16 or 17. or it's young boy, in the teens years or early twenties.
ummm, i might be changing to a new sn soon, but it seems like a hassle.
anyway, i was online just now and received a message from an "aimbot"
requesting my sn password and user info or my account would be deleted.
well, aol would never say that. i didn't offend anyone, it's more people offending me.
so, i would like to say thank you (e:paul). my life would be so much less entertaining without this.

a spoonful of sugar
i had class friday night and then all day yesterday, and a couple of people were sick, and i think it became like being on an airplane, sitting in that same room with sick people and all of that recycled air.
anyway, i don't think all of the sitting helped, because it was just making me feel more sick and tired. i had plans with a friend i haven't seen much of lately, and the whole day i was thinking about how i just wanted to go home and sleep.
when i got of class, she had already text me, so i forced myself to go out, and i'm so glad i did. lately, i have been consumed by work and school and personal issues. it's strange how caught up you can get in your own world, and forget their is an entire world outside of you.
anyway, we got food and wine and went to the mall. i bought new shoes with a christmas giftcard and bought a sexy dress to wear out, and out we went. it ended up being one of those days that runs seemlessly into night with no flaws.
i had so much fun last night! i guess it reminded me of how important a good friend can really be. and also how important a hot new pair of shoes can be!
we ended up at this club we had been to one other time, and ran into this guy we know who does security for sports players and some celebrities, and he always knows the fun people and has the hook-up.
then everyone kept offering to buy us all these drinks, and that is always nice, although sometimes i just want to buy my own, because it can be a hassle to have to talk to someone just because they bought you a drink.
i think i have found my happy drink place. it's three grey goose citron and sodas, with a slice of lime. and then two bottles of water in between. it's a magical mix. it makes for good conversation and witty remarks. and, a few sexy dance moves.
how i wish it was saturday again...

phyto sucks
so, for xmas (e:hodown) wanted some phyto product, and they were having a sale. i am basically a sucker for any type of beauty product, lately products especially that promises great results.
in addition to the sista's weird fancy scalp treatment stuff, i ordered a few types of conditioner.
i can honestly say, that the drugstore stuff i was using before is 100% better. and i spent about $50 on two conditioners, whereas i could have stockpiled for almost of year with the other stuff.
my hair is so dry, two inches must come off at the salon tomorrow. the only thing worse than dry skin is dry hair, or vice versa.
they really are some products worth splurging on, but my all tie favorite conditioner would have to be neutrogena triple moisture, and pantene pro v restoratives(the one for super dry hair). i have a whole system in the shower that yeild maximum conditioning results.
i am just disappointed by the high end stuff lately. maybe it is my recession voice speaking, but i really feel like so many costly things are such a rip-off when you can find just as good or better items for so much less.
keratase hair products for example, are supposed to be so great and i think they suck. frederic fekkai, same thing.
there is this really great goldwell product, but actually all of their stuff is great, but expensive... i wish i was in beauty school again and i could just color my hair everyday for free, those were the days!
anyway, the lesson to be learned is this: don't be fooled by all of the fancy packages ladies and gents- it's what inside that counts!
my next mission is finding stellar skincare for a bargain; wish me luck!

a wealth of historical knowledge
i just finished reading, The Devil in The White City by Erik Larson. So, I think it is maybe one of the most well written books I have ever read. I think it sat on my bookshelf for almost two years; my bad. I think I maybe started it once and deemed it boring, but I was so very wrong.
You need to read this book, if you like historical fiction, the city of Chicago, crime novels, architecture, stories of struggle, triumph and heartbreak...
So really all people need to read this book. It kinda makes me want to go to Chicago now and see the where the World's Fair took place in 1893, even though the building aren't there, but, there is a museum that has a ton of artifacts and info about the fair.
I especially loved the way the book was written. The language was so descriptive and beautiful, but simply put... I really can't stand too much flowery language when I read and the author did an amazing job of retelling such a complex story in a way that the reader sort of slips into the past.
Ok, I am not good at all at book reviews, but I would like to give a shout out to (e:hodown), as I believe this may be her book, or at least I know she read it forever ago, and told me to read it, but I clearly did not listen.
Now, for my next read, I would like something fun and light... suggestions?

from now on its only pg or comedy
i just went to see slumdog millionaire. really good movie. also so disturbing.
i am also currently reading "the devil in the white city". great book. also extremely disturbing.
and i received a book for xmas about the holocaust, also good but disturbing.
i see a theme here, and intend to put an end to it now.
i definitely think people need to read about and see awful things that happen in the world, because turning a blind eye is ignorant. however, i need at least a month of feel-good books and movies, because my anxiety level is at a high, and i have been having awful nightmares the past few weeks.
i begin to wonder, am i just a huge baby, or are other people really bothered by violence, death, murder, sexual abuse, and other such things in books movies to the point that it gives them a stomach ache??
anyway, i am going to drink some water now and think happy thoughts before bed!

jobs galore
so this job i have been wanting turns out to seem not so great, and i kinda missed out on some fun in blo because of it. anyway, i still have the interview on friday, but i feel like it will be just to go and in case i want a job with that hospital in the future, i won't look bad.
it doesn't pay much, and seems like super hard work. pays less than both job i have right now, and turns out they only pay for those going to school to pursue nursing. anyway, maybe it is better than i think.
i may be able to pick up extra hours with the agency i work for, and there are clients i could work with here in town, which would be so nice not to have to drive 35 minutes to work.
i feel like i really just need to make school more important even if it means i will be broke. i was making decent money for a while there, but i can just cut back and it shouldn't be an issue.
taking a full time job is a lot of responsibility when i have another job and school full time.
it's nice to be home!
on the way back i got bumped in exchange for a voucher, so my next blo trip will be free...woohoo!

old whitey
my infamous white coat, for those of you who know me and have seen it, has not unzippered at the bottom for two years.
well, now tonight, i came home, well home to the (e:pmt), AND i went to unzip it down to the bottom, and then step out of it, and it unzipped!!!!
such a small thing, but makes me sooooo happy!
i also found an amazing and cute hoodie on sale today, and it is so lovely and warm.
these things and the tim hortons hot chocolate i had today somewhat makeup for the fact that i am a loser and left my ipod in the back pocket of the plane seat. :(
plus at lunch the waitress though i was a movie star today, which feeds the ego.
and we are making beef stroganoff for dinner...delish!!!
so far, im loving this trip.

on my way
no one should only get three hours of sleep and then have to wake up at 230.
seriously,i am soooooo tired!!!!!!
i am also scared of the cold, because as (e:hodown) says, i think my memories of the harsh awful cold have been softened by a year and a half of sunshine and warmth.
but perhaps some good wine can cure the harshness of the cold...
i miss (e:hodown) already! hopefully all will go well and i shall see her in a few days.
so excited to see all of my friends and relax and have some fun!
