Some High Class, And A Little Hooch
Alright I have to start off by saying that the veganism did not stick. More and more I found myself disagreeing with the vegan ideology. And so I hit it and quit it.
Last weekend at The Water Grill was simply amazing!! For appetizers we had two different kind of oysters, and both were delicious! I didn’t really have a preference… they were just good! (I tried remember what kind of oysters they were but it’s been a while, it’s almost 3 in the morning and I can barely type…) And the bread was perfectttt. I could just like live off of bread, that’s how much I love it, so even though it may seem insignificant it’s very important to me to like my bread. Kay, and then for my first course I had White Chowder with Manila Clams, Weiser Farm Potatoes, and Niman Ranch Applewood Smoked Bacon. Deeeelicious! It was so creamy and flavorful; I loved it. Then for a main course I had Roasted Free Range Jidori Chicken Breast. Gooood stuff! And very seafood/meat oriented. If I was there at a really nice restaurant I might as well have enjoyed… hahaha.Wicked was so entertaining and I really loved it. We sat in the orchestra section, near the stage, but not too close that you can’t see well. It was perfect! Oh goodness, I loved the songs and the storyline. (: Galinda was definitely my favorite just because she was so DARN cuuuute. For those that haven’t heard of Wicked, it was a musical playing at the Pantages theatre for quite a while, and it’s about the “Wicked Witch of the West” from The Wizard of Oz. It was the nicest thing and I’m so appreciative that I was able to go!
Anyway, I am back at my apartment in Santa Barbara by my college campus and let me tell you… even though I only have classes on two days of the week the days are jam-packed with reading and homework. It’s really very stressful… but at least I have four-day weekends to sort of catch up on reading I’m not able to complete during the week. But for sure I am ON IT with the reading… The stuff is really interesting. I’ll write an entire post on my classes soon though since I looove them so freaking much. (:
Alright tonight (or since it’s 3am, last night) my friends and I went to a semi-formal queer party at The Hub, on campus. I loooooved it! Sandy and I danced most of the time but other times I just mingled and danced with some queer boys or lesbians… lol. All I have to say is that a queer boy totally grabbed my vagina while we were dancing hahahaha… (*cough*SKYLAR*cough*). I totally know him… and geeeez he got a little too wild lmao… boy goes down all the way to the fucking floor. Hahaha. And then I danced with a tooon of other gay guys and some girls… including one girl named Carmen (the cutest Asian girl with a boy haircut), who took it upon herself to kiss me. lol. What a darn cutie. But blah… then I found out she’s slept with a friend of mine and then I was like UGH oh hell no. But anyway, besides that it was just so amazingly fun. I totally freak danced, which was a total first for me. It felt like everyone on the dance floor was just sexing it up with clothes on. xD But it was fun regardless so who cares! Ahhhh but I know I am going to be ridiculously sore later today… boooo. -_-;
Anyway, fun times!!!!! (: Ahhh and I went shopping yesterday, too. UGHHH I have a serious shopping addiction. It needs to be fixed, or I need to learn some self-control. Lol… ay.
Goodnight!!!!!!

Wicked/Lovely
Since Tuesday I’ve been a supposed vegan, until the end of January. I first watched some video about Veganism mid-December and since then was itching to get back to the apartment to do the whole vegan thing. And Rony, my vegetarian roommate decided to go along and do it with me. Alright so we got back to school and did all this shopping at Albertson’s and Trader Joe’s… and then I realized just how much of my food I was going to have to give up. It didn’t really strike me that fruit snacks have gelatin, or that all my favorite cereals have honey (Honey Comb, Honey Smacks, and Honey Bunches of Oats with Almonds). I mean, up until Tuesday I had always proclaimed my dislike for honey… and in fact I don’t put honey in my tea or add it on to any foods. And then… bagels, my other favorite food, of course uses cream cheese. That’s made from milk. And so is butter. Slowly, but surely all my food options were running out! I panicked. Okay, I’m not saying my life revolves around food or anything, but let’s be real, I need that to liiiiive.
Luckily, I ran out of Honey Comb so that was out of the question anyway, and my Honey Smacks was stale. I bought a lot of fruit, and rekindled my passion for oatmeal. Ooh yumm, I can even have oatmeal without any brown sugar. I just love oatmeal. But anyway, okay… I found other options including hummus and pita for dinner. Wheat bread is okay, too. Bread is alright so long as it’s not made with eggs. There were options and I wasn’t dying. I even cooked rice and beans for dinner one night (wow that’s really brown hahaha).
But now, I’ve come home and there was (surprisingly) a box of Honey Comb here. Okay there’s never any food here (well there is now because we hired a cook, but anyway!) and my fave cereal suddenly appears. So I CAVED and had some Honey Comb for breakfast. And again, surprisingly, there was Silk Vanilla soymilk in fridge. So I mean part vegan, part vegetarian? There was also a lot of beef and rice left over from yesterday that the cook made, but I’m not touching that. And then (since the cook is not here on Fridays [blast!]) my mom decides to order pizza. She, but a few minutes prior, YELLED at me for even being vegetarian (she’s a carnivore) so I couldn’t bring myself to tell her I can’t even have cheese. So I caved in again and had pizza for lunch.
And now I just got an email from my Aunt Elvia about the plans to go see Wicked tomorrow. We’re having dinner at The Water Grill. They have nothing but seafood there. Trust me, I know because I’ve been there before. 1) I’m not eating meat at all until the end of January (even if I cheat with dairy, eggs, or honey sometimes) 2) I hate seafood. It’s looking like one big hassle, but my family has this tendency of getting upset real quick like so I’m not going to bring it up and just order a salad… ugh. I hate seafood, but my mother looooves it and I have a feeling that’s why we’re going there. My mother is the oldest and my Aunt Elvia, the one inviting us, is the second oldest so she’s always thinking about my mother (who is a big complainer if there is no meat or seafood). AGHHHH.Anyway, I got my bags from Lulus.com heyyyy! They are totez cute~ I’ll take some pics and post them, if I remember… I always seem to forget to post photos for my blog. FAIL. -_-; The stuff from Asos.com BARELY shipped! They take a really long time to process orders, apparently. Maybe that’s from the amount of orders they get since they seem to be really popular?
Anyway, lesson learned: Food I love and miss will still be there at the end of January. There is no need to panic. *sigh*

A Little Late
So I’m certainly a little late in saying it on my blog, but Happy New Year to you all!
Definitely a lot has happened since I last blogged. And I’ve also done some shopping since then, too.
At Guess, for 50% off I got Felidia ankle boots, in black. They’re sort of angled really awkwardly so I don’t suggest walking anywhere in these. If you’re going to walk a few steps and then sit down and look pretty, these are the shoes for you! Of course I wear a size 5 so wearing heels is harder for me than it is for Tyra Banks and her size 11 feet. They sure do look fierce though! 3.5 inch heels.
A new favorite online store of mine, Lulus.com, has some fabulous purses and really cute clothing! I fell in love with two handbags immediately, but to get free shipping I needed to spend a little bit more so I also got this dress called the “Dinner and a Movie Mini Dress”. Being as short as I am (5 ft) I seriously doubt the dress will look that short on me. I love V-neck and square cut tops/dresses and this just seems perfect!
This item is no longer available! ($21.50)
Flying Solo Handbag in Ash Grey ($35.00)
Stephanie Cable Knitted Sweater Bag in Cream ($39.50) This item is no longer available!It seems Lulus only stocks a relatively small quantity of an item and then they replace it with newer items all the time so if you see something you like I suggest buy it as soon as possible! (:
Then as I was looking around online I also stumbled across Asos.com, which is definitely a bit pricier, but still really amazing! They’re based in the UK so shipping takes a while but their selection is really great! You can always look around to see what’s on sale (which is what I did!)
ASOS Twist Lock Mary Jane Shoes ($36.71)
ASOS Satin Pleated Peep Toe Platform Shoe ($15.00)
ASOS ‘Velvet Feel’ 80 Denier Opaque Black Tights ($7.35) Tights are really in right now, to wear with dresses, shorts, skirts! I can’t wait to wear them… I’m sure I’ll feel warmer, too! I want to try these on with my wardrobe first before I go buying bright colors.
ASOS PETITE Sweat Dress ($36.71) I just thought this was the cutest thing!! I am really excited to wear this (with my new black tights, too~)To update on the Kira Plastinina things I ordered… the shoes, which only come in half sizes was labeled 5.5 but ugh… they fit more like a 6 or even a 6.5 and so I gave them to my aunt. So perhaps order a size smaller if you want to get her shoes but despite them being too big they were the CUTEST most comfy 4 inch high heeled shoes everrr~
I’ve also done some shopping at Forever 21 and American Eagle recently but it’s too much to look online and get all the items here. I’ve already gone picture crazy!!
My family celebrated on New Year’s Eve by waiting until midnight and then we all watched The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (thanks to “TomFlix”) and unfortunately we didn’t know it was nearly 3 hrs long! But we endured until about 4am to watch. Oh and my Aunt Elvia gave us all money, too! (: I got $1000~! Haaay! But I have to save it for rent money… ugh, what a drag.
Then when we woke up on the 1st my mother, brother, aunt, and I went to Las Vegas! So we spent our New Year celebrating there and we stayed until Saturday morning, by which time we had to go back to celebrate my little cousin’s 12th birthday. (:
On Sunday, Sandy and I got back to Santa Barbara. School starts tomorrow technically, but I only have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays!!! (: Yay for the bomb schedule!!! And lol… I’m going back on Thursday night because I’ll be going to see Wicked on Saturday. Ahhh traveling is so hectic and not fun.
Oh yes…! And I surpassed my goal of watching 150 Movies in 2008 by watching 179 movies! It was part of a challenge at Pour-soi.net and I got this nice little gift:
I’m thinking of doing the challenge again this year and also the 12 books in 2009 challenge. I’m very dedicated to reading right now so I’m going to take that motivation and run with it!!! ^_^ My goals for tomorrow are to finish reading Eclipse and purchase all my school textbooks for Winter Quarter.
2 am?! Goodnight all!

Rocky Horror Picture Show and Some Trannys!
Okay so Saturday night/Sunday morning at midnight there was a midnight showing of Rocky Horror Picture Show in San Pedro. It was some LO’ RENT area not gonna lie… but it was bomb anyway and the theatre was nice!!!!! Sandy, David, Piale, and I went shopping for outfits to wear (the theme was lingerie)… but we kept it G-Rated… more like PG hahaha. We put a little kick in our outfits~ hahaha I wore hella GLITTER, a dark shadow with cat eye liner, black tights, and a leotard!!! Hahaha… There will be hella pics come tomorrow!! (: Haha
For those that have never seen Rocky Horror Picture Show, it’s this cult classic movie from the 70s about transvestites… sort of hahaha. It’s more than that, but either way there is singing, hella glitz, and it’s just amazing! We went and there were people performing it on stage while the movie ran and the audience yelled out all these lines that aren’t really in the movie… but yet everyone knows them. It’s so hard to explain! My outfit:
Outfit from American Apparel, Shoes from GuessGroup pics and pics at the theatre coming tomorrow. (: This was just afterward, after we had eaten at Denny’s. I got home at 5 am and my family was all still awake, just having gotten out of the jacuzzi. It was a little intense!!! Hahaha…
I love my makeup and my hot tranny mess hair!!
Those boots, which I got 50% off at Guess at The Citadel have some way high heels. I should probably measure it, but all I know is I was a regular sized woman in them! Lol… I’m only 5 ft so high heels are a must!Speaking of high heels I ordered Kira Plastinina shoes today from her website… they were 75% off for the holidays. In fact, all her stuff is on sale right now! I got a tank for $5, the shoes for $22, and some pants for $17! (Original prices: $20, $88, $68) I’ve heard her shoes are amazing so I just had to get some. I only realized afterward that I don’t know the length of her pants… so they may not fit me. -_-; But they were cheap so I’ll just have to wait and see what happens when I get them. Hell, they may not even FIT me! Haha…
Things are running out waaaay quick!! So if you want to give her a try, might as well buy it now while it’s all 75% off. Btw, for those that haven’t heard of Kira Plastinina, she is the youngest ever fashion designer. She is currently only 16 and is already a pretty big deal in the fashion industry. (:
I’m sort of eager to go to one of her stores in SoCal. She has a lot in the LA area… yay~~ There’s one at the Beverly Center and I really want to go check it out!
Happy holidays everyone!! ^_^ Sorry I haven’t been keeping up on commenting on your blogs… the holiday season keeps me so busy! I’ll be getting to you all soon, promise!!

Poker Face (Photo Heavy)
A string of pictures to explain in lesser words more things. None of the photos are photoshopped edited because I haven’t the time to do all that, so sorry if some look too yellow, etc.
The old look vs. my new hair color!
Day after the Saturday Christmas Party. Snow (we ordered it from Union Ice) on front lawn, and then at Aunt Maggie’s house for Midori’s 2nd birthday party (Aunt El, Mom, Me)
Little brother and I. Clearly, he is several inches taller than me! Haha ♥
The outfit and the look~ (Clearly, laundry basket there with clothes I need to hang/fold lol) My eyelashes touch my eyes hahaha I love my eyelashes~ (Hate how in the photo the blouse looks too poofy but it’s actually not bad irl hahaha)
Close-up of my makeup! (: [All new Smashbox makeup] And it lasted all day/night, as seen by the 2am second pic, with hot mess in the background haha.
Today’s makeup. Intense pink and black! Yepp, I’m wearing pink and black today hahaha.There are lots of Christmas pics with my family but just for privacy I’m only posting self-portraits of Christmas Eve.
I ordered my makeup on Tuesday and it all arrived on Wednesday! It helps that their warehouse is just a few cities away~!! Smashbox is love. (:
As for Christmas, presents I got: white gold earrings, PS3 (I was the ONLY one in the family not to have one), iPod Classic 120GB yay, Moneeey, B&N Gift Card, iTunes Gift Card, and Blu-ray movies for my PS3 haaay~! (:

Winter Wonderland
No winter has ever been better! There have been no family fights and for the most part everything is going well. That means that I’ve also just been enjoying life without much time to get online or even blog! It’s hard to blog when just everything is going so well! My mood is pretty stable and it’s a consistent happy. (:
NOTE: There will be a lot of girly banter in this post. Do not proceed unless you like fashion/girly stuff. Skip to the second half, if you don’t like that sort of stuff.
On Saturday I dyed my hair again! I let my natural hair color grow out for about three months and finally I decided I needed some color in my hair again. It’s a really pretty light golden brown that reminds me of milk chocolate with perhaps some red undertones.
Between yesterday and today I spent over $300 on makeup. Now, I know that sounds crazy… but brushes are ridiculously expensive. I got the MAC 109 brush, which was $34! It’s a contouring brush, but I’m using it to apply my Mac Studio Fix Fluid foundation for now until I get another bigger fluffier brush. I got a ton of products from Smashbox! I absolutely love their makeup and I cannot wait to try the Smashbox Photo Finish Primer. The primer goes under your foundation. Also, I went to Sephora and purchased Urban Decay Potion Primer, which is used on the eyes as a primer to eyeshadow. I was using a cream-based base from MAC as my primer before and I really liked it but it was also a little too shiny. Today is my first time using the UDPP and so far it’s working great I think. None of my makeup has creased, and the actual product came on really nice and smooth. Oh yes… and I also bought the Coastal Scents 88 Matte Palette. The palette comes with 88 different color eyeshadows! And it’s only $21! That’s such a deal! The Coastal Scents and Smashbox products I ordered so I just have to wait for them to come in the mail. (: Smashbox has a TON of free gifts if you order online so it’s really such a good deal, and their shipping is totally free!
As I put my makeup on today I realized I have about 3 or 4 MAC eyeshadows I’ve never used in my possession. I’ll work on wearing them more often, or at least trying out the colors. But I couldn’t today because my clothes is sorta bright today.
* * *
Saturday we had our grand ol’ Christmas party at the new house. We had about 60 guests in attendance I think. I invited Sandy, Gloria, Anna, Piale, David, Eric, Tim, Elizabeth, Gabriel, Jean, Pedro, and Vy. All of us were dancing all night long!! My high heels were thankfully surprisingly very comfortable. David and Piale definitely got drunk lol… it was quite amusing. Either way we ALL got down and just danced nonstop. Ahhhh it was so much more fun with my friends there. Otherwise I would have been the only one in my age range and that always sucks.
There was amazing catering from Panama Joe’s and a great bartender. I get so excited when we get their catering for all our parties because I am madly in love with the chimichanga appetizers. And the chicken and scalloped potatoes are just divine~ Seriously! Then we ordered fruit tarts and creme brulee from Tropicana Bakery & Cuban Cafe. Some people were kind enough to bring pies, too! And there was also a lot of chocolate. Brb, dying!! AHH, just remembering all the good food is kind of exciting. Lol… hahaha that is just too funny.
Anyway, we had a raffle, too. Every adult guest received one ticket to start off with, and then the more you danced the more tickets you got. We gave away some gift cards, a basket of some hardcore alcohol, an iPod Nano, Nikon Coolpix S60 (the touch screen digital camera), a Sony Blu-ray player, and last but not least a 40″ HDTV! I’m so happy because David won the Nikon digi-cam! We had some really amazing gifts for the give-away and I think everyone was pretty happy even if they didn’t win.
We also had an elf and a Santa Clause. All the children in attendance got presents from Santa Clause. (Ok so actually I picked all the presents for all the kiddies, but it was nice and cute~) Then my family surprised my Aunt El and snuck a present in Santa’s bag for her. It was a beautiful amethyst yellow gold ring.
Oh! also, I’d like to note that my aunt ordered snow to be delivered and placed on our front lawn. Lmao… so for a few days now we’ve had snow covering all our grass on the front lawn. Talk about extreme, and super funnnn! Hahaha
I cannot wait for Christmas in a few days!!! (:
(In sadder news, my little brother is anorexic. And we found out yesterday he’s also been throwing up the little that he did eat. So now he’s going to have a personal cook come over every day starting Friday to make sure that he eats because my mom works 12 hours a day at Kaiser Permanente so she can’t really cook for him or even check that he eats. He’s going to have many doctor appointments now, to ensure he gets back to a healthy weight and isn’t sick anymore. I won’t really elaborate on any personal thoughts.)

A Dream and With More Frequency
A few nights ago I dreamt I was in a relationship with an extremely cute boy. He was the nicest, most caring guy… to the point of annoyance somewhat. Really nice boys are very annoying. The ones that don’t give you any reason to be upset are painfully boring. In any case, that’s a different topic and I’m talking about someone specific. Back to my dream: This dreamed cute boyfriend of mine… I miss him. *sighs* The next night I was hoping of dreaming of him again, but sadly I had a dreamless sleep. This is the very first time I’ve ever dreamt of being in a relationship and it was… nice, pleasant, surprising, etc.
By no means am I feeling needy right now. Sure I have some stances on relationships (but I’ll not go into detail), and yeah it’d be nice to have a boyfriend but I’m sort of whatever on the matter. Actually it’s more of a resignation that it’s not really going to happen anytime soon, but let’s not delve into my cognitive distortions. So yeah as I was saying… I’m not being needy, so the dream really caught me off-guard! I don’t understand why I had it now of all times.
As of late, I’m either hallucinating or guys are being extra charming and flirtatious toward me. I don’t know why… or if it’s legitimate. *giggles* That really cute emo boy, “Hey, nice piercing…” with those really intense eyes that never stopped looking over at me all night. That tall attractive boy that leaned over towards me, “But it was worth it right?” with the cutest smile. Yeah… anyhow! I’m pretty sure I’m not dreaming this shit up right? It’s just awwwwkward!! I get sort of flustered and my cheeks turn red each time… gahhh. -_-; That’s so lame but whatever… hahaha, it adds color to my cheeks. ^_^
No one deserves to be alone for the holidays. *hugs my friends and family tightly* I’m definitely looking forward to the Christmas party we’re throwing on Saturday. Anna, Gloria, Sandy, Vy, Jean, Elizabeth, Gabriel, Rona, and David (and maybe Eric and Tim), are coming!! W000t! College and high-school friends inter-mix and meet! It’ll be hella fun dancing… and hopefully a few of them are able to get presents. As always we’re raffling presents to guests and all the kids.
In fact, I spent ALL of today shopping and running errands with my aunt. We bought some things for the house (more rugs zomgz… they are so freaking heavy), and all the children’s presents. Picking out hella toys from stores made me feel like a little kid again hahaha. Oh fudge and we’re having a wrapping party on Thursday. I am *not* looking forward to that at all!!
Ahhh… the joys of shopping. I have some gift ideas… Must go shopping without any family members around… lol~
Night!!!

Let the Darkness Swallow You Whole
I’m currently sitting in the dark in the living room. It gets dark really early these days. And it sounds like I’m setting the mood for some deep and dark introspective entry, but in reality I’m pretty damn happy! (: That’s totally strange for this time of year, but I’m NOT complaining.
This quarter has felt like a first-quarter-in-college for some reason. That’s not necessarily bad… but all the mental maturity I should have done during my first quarter last year I did this year. But all in baby steps! This quarter I actually studied hardcore for finals and tried my best (somewhat hahaha… I will sometimes procrastinate!). And I think I’m going to get an A in Philosophy of Mind. Based on my grades for the previous 2 assignments (of 3 essays each) all I needed on the final was an 82 to maintain my A. We had to write FOUR essays for the final, which took me two hours and 10 pages. Lmao… shit was intense. I think my brain died a little bit toward the end and my hand was about to fall off.
What really made me super happy was that the TA walked out when I finished my final and was setting it on the table, which at the time was disappointing because I wanted to be all like, “Thanks!! Bye now” sort of thing. But anyway, he stepped out so he could talk to me! He addressed me by name and told me that I was one of the few people to get consistent As in the class and that I did really well. Not gonna lie, I was a little flustered and didn’t know what to say hahaha so I just said, “Well, I love philosophy…” Hahaha… afterward as I was walking away I was totez liek, “damnn that was dumb.” Haha
So last night Instead of studying for Health Psych some more I was too elated and joined Hailey and David to go watch MILK. The movie is about Harvey Milk, the first openly gay man to be elected to public office in California. I just have to say the movie was really empowering not just for the progress a single man was able to garner for the gay movement but just as a motivation to always have ideals to strive for because it IS in your power to grasp them.
Note to self: My theory of replacement is dead-on. NUUUUH. Already I think there is a replacement but I’m a bit more like whatever this time. Hahaha. xD And I’m SO over it. Like forreal. YAY!
I cannot wait until Wordpress releases Wordpress 2.7. I can’t risk even downloading Release Candiate 1 because all my entries on here are super amazingly important to me. The new layout in the Admin looks so much cleaner and nicer that I can’t wait to write my entries with it!!
Ooh… it’s been a while since I listened to the Repo! The Genetic Opera soundtrack so that’s what I’m doing now. I reallllly want to buy the DVD but it isn’t out until January 20th! And already I bought “In The Mood For Love” and “2046″ haha…
OY… speaking of shopping I busted a mission last night. After my Phil of Mind final I didn’t really change into anything warmer when we went out to the movies and I was wearing my thin pink zip-up hoodie. And I was shiiivering so before the movie started we went to American Eagle and I told myself I was looking for a black jacket. Immediately I found two… one with faux fur and a more casual one. xD And… I bought them. -$110 from my account (faux fur jacket was $80 but!!! the second hoodie was 50% off so it was only $20 instead of $40). *dies* Hahaha…. I think in like less than 2 weeks I spent about ~$400 of my own money on clothes. -_-; Hahaha… oops?
I can tell how many days I haven’t used the computer by looking at my RSS feeds. ): There’s a lot to catch up on! BLARGH. asdfkjsadf That’s okayyyy winter break is nearing!!!!!!
Non-sensical happiness!
I love my friends! I love my family! I love myself, too! (:

In The Mood For Love
I’m not the sort of person who falls in and quickly out of love
But to you I gave my affection right from the startDuring this very crucial time when I should be studying I have been hanging out with friends every day! Lmao… we haven’t hung out this much all year and all of a sudden we’re all dying to see each other and do some fun activities. Okay like really, we haven’t played video games all year and out of nowhere we’ve been playing Resident Evil (on Wii), DDR, and Guitar Hero 3. Lmao… like really now? And yet… the days are so fun I wouldn’t have it any other way!
My mood is much improved. I feel happy. And on a more random note: I feel womanly. I feel sexy. SAY WHAT? *nods* Yeah, it’s true. I don’t know if it’s the new clothes, or just… a different state of mind but I feel like an ADULT. This is some huge milestone for me! I’ll bask in it while it lasts. ^_^
All my music makes me want to dance. All my friends are amazing. Everything is wonderful!! (:
We had Chinese last night from Fortune Garden. Delicious! And let me tell you, I absolutely adore eating with chopsticks. It comes so much more natural to me. And I felt trendy! ^-^;
David came back yesterday! He makes me SO SO SO happy! Mm, sure I wish we were as close as we were in high-school but it’s alright… we’re somewhat different people now. Anyway, his laugh is contagious and I well up with joy when I hear it. And his laugh makes me laugh and it’s this one big happy mess~!!
A few days ago I watched “In The Mood For Love,” a Chinese movie. It was one of the saddest movies, really. A man and woman (pictured above) move in next to each other and they find out their spouses are cheating together. They vow not to be like their cheating spouses and to remain honest. I don’t want to give anything away but it’s such a sad progression.
There’s also a “loose sequel” to “In The Mood…” called “2046″ and I didn’t think things could get sadder, but oh they did. “2046″ tells what happens to Chow Mo-wan (guy above) afterward and how he deals with the memory of past love. While that is the main theme of the movie, I also felt another major theme was giving up on love. I honestly cried during the movie, I was so touched and torn and hurt. And then again when I went to bed I randomly just started bawling. Seriously, I don’t think I’ve ever been touched by any movie prior to these two.
Please watch these movies! ^_^
Off to do other things now!
(I want to fall in love♥)

What’s in your heart?
Hello, gorgeous~ I watched Twilight again on Monday, but this time with David, Sandy, and Hailey!! The first time the acting was horrible as was the directing, but the second time since I was with friends that made it more exciting… and I was so focused on RPattz so that made a world of difference. David and I had to hold hands during certain parts because it was too much to handle! At a few points I think David was even lightly biting my hand hahaha… And I was literally squealing like a little girl. Haha… and it was a little awkward but only because there were only 8 people in the movie theater in all (with 4 of us we were half the crowd). Haha, I think Hailey kept saying, “My vagina is quivering” and I felt sort of bad because I think there was a little kiddy a few rows down. Lmao.
Watching Twilight again reaffirmed my love for Edward Cullen. *dreamy sigh* When I got back all I could do was daydream and suffice to say… *ahem* I definitely dreamt of him that night. Hahaha. ~Awkward~
It’s so great turning on my phone… his beautiful face is my wallpaper. It’s also my wallpaper for my Macbook and PC. And Rony has a poster on her side of the room. (: Edward Cullen’s face is everywhere I turn and I wouldn’t have it any other way. (:
Today I got my 42″ HDTV!! I luff it to pieces!~ It’s such a joy watching TV now… I definitely don’t have to squint. Hell I don’t even have to look that hard because it’s just like overwhelmingly there. Hahaha
I am so incredibly bored right now… I’m watching Christmas in Rockefeller Center on ABC right now. *shrugs* There isn’t much else on until 10pm when the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show begins on CBS. David Cook sings really well, at least… And wow… after listening to the song I have a new top favorite Christmas song!
It’s his version of a John Lennon classic, “Happy Christmas (War is Over)”
Thank goodness I found it on Youtube because I don’t think you can download it anywhere and I love it to pieces…. AH!
Mm, listening to good ol’ KOST 103.5 streaming online now. (: Geez, I miss SoCal. This whole “central coast” business that is Santa Barbara isn’t too fun. Ahhh just a week and a half more and I get to go back home. *sigh* I want to be back so badly…
OMG! Anyway, this past weekend I bought a gray peacoat!!! Not sure if I’ve mentioned this but OMGGGG I love it to pieces! Peacoats are absolutely beautiful and comfortable and WARM!! There are no pictures of it available at AE.com (I got it at American Eagle) but it’s just so *perfect*
Coincidentally David also got a peacoat and it’s black. It’s TOO FIERCE TO HANDLE! (: Hahaha
Anyway, to elaborate on the bolded sentence… It’s so great being home!! My brother and I are incredibly fun together. We go to the pool and swim laps together or just play around and then go to the jacuzzi. Or we play Call of Duty: World at War together, or he lets me play Fallout 3 and gives me tips. *sad face* I feeeed him because he’s having weight issues (he’s thin but thinks he’s fat and watches calories - Mom thinks he may be anorexic… ackk!). And then you know… it’s just great being in the comforts of other people since I’m mostly always alone in the apartment. I don’t do so well alone. *sigh* And even my Aunt El and Mom are pleasant! I want to be home so badlyyyy.
I mean after winter break it’s back to UCSB. ): I wanna be HOME permanently you know?
(As a side note to self: I still can’t get him out of my head blah!)
