hello world, i've been happy lately =) not saying that i'm usually depressed or anything but something happened a few nights ago that just makes me feel better with decisions i've made in the past. i haven't talked to my ex in awhile and saturday night, we decided to skype. i basically just wanted to see how he was doing and wish him luck for finals coming up but we ended up talking for 3 hours. and of course, he made me watch Big Bang Theory with him...which i always end up enjoying at the end even though i refuse to watch it ever single time lol i just love that i'm comfortable with the fact that we're no longer together but we can still talk and be friends without having to bring back feelings or feel like i miss him. i mean, of course i miss him but i dont get all sad and depressed over it anymore. it just makes me realize that i made the right decision to leave and come home. even though i lied to him and told him that it was because of other personal issues, i still feel like if i didnt make the decision to leave, i would be dragging him down. although it was a sacrifice, it was definitely a sacrifice worth making. and that's what love has always meant to me. {sacrifice} it sucks when you can't have what you want but i know that not having what i want is best for right now. yes, lying and hiding the truth is hard and is wrong for me to do but it's better if they dont know the whole story. it just makes things alittle more complicated. i just can't wait till the day i see his face again ...in person =) my friend uploaded a picture from when we were in kindergarten and a friend of hers commented on the picture. apparently, i was friends with her too...and she said that she has been loooking for me as well for years. i eventually remembered her but i'm just realizing that i dont remember a lot of friends from back in elementary school that i should remember. it's just nice to be able to reunite with old friends and continue to meet new ones! excited to meet some more friends this weekend =) and excited about the sleepover at my friends house...i always loved going to her house when we were in kindergarten and grade one and i am going back again after so many years. cheers to friends <3

hello world, being woken up early in the morning after going to bed not too long ago is...irritating. haha i got woken up by the dog! im helping my cousin dog-sit her dog for a couple days till they come back from picking up my other cousin! sad i didn't get to go but im left with the dog LOL i dont understand how a small little dog can have poop that can be so stanky! =p i've been wanting to quit my job for awhile now...just gets boring often because there isn't a lot to do but stand around for hours until your shift is over. and it's such a long commute to work...takes me about an hour and a half including traffic and everything. so i searched around a few days ago and applied for a few places. yesterday morning, i got a call from Le Chateau and they wanna see me today to discuss schedules, pays, etc. i know i said i wanted to quit...but now that i have an opportunity, i dont know if i should take it. i mean, of course i should wait until the meeting to decide but i feel like i want to go through with it because a). im dealing with clothes....i dont know how much more interesting a part time job can be...i mean, i deal with furniture, home decor, home textiles.....not so fun. and b). its a lot closer to home. the store is in downtown...so hopefully it'll be busy with people and it only takes me about half an hour to 45mins to get to work. i will be starting school in May for a few classes and i guess whichever job can offer me the most flexibility around my schedule. sometimes, i feel like there are some people who only keep you around or call you "friend" because their regular friends are away. i can pretty much predict what's about to happen if i ask this person to hang out like we usually do cause it has already happened in the past. her "regular friends" are all coming back and who's left to the side? ...me. which i dont really mind much...im glad i could help this person in their time of need but honestly, i'm not a replacement girl so unless this person wants to hang out with me, i wont be going out of my way to try and hang out with this person. i feel like so much is happening this month. so many parties and i just can't go to all of them! but sometimes it's so hard to choose which one to not go to and you just want to attend them all =/ i can't imagine what summer will be like...madness.

cutie!

April.15/2012

hello world,
i dont go clubbing too too often unless they have a special event. but usually when i go, i have a ton of fun =) but this time...haha i think the definition of "fun" went a little overboard =p
there was an event on saturday night at gossip called "ladies night". ladies get free drinks by 10:30pm and ladies get in free before 11:30pm. the last time me and my girls went there, we underestimated how many people would be there and we waited outside in line for almost 2 hours (-_-) so this time, since ladies get in free and u get free drinks, we wanted to go a little early to make sure we miss the lineup. usually doors open at 10pm which means u have half an hour to get all the shots u can handle! ...or so we thought.
met up with my girls around 950pm and headed towards the club. looking like losers...we were the only ones there. they were still setting up! so we went to a nearby hotel to hide until it was time to go on...hoping more people would arrive by then. there weren't too too many people in the beginning...until maybe around 1130..then the crowd starting picking up. i think maybe it was still finals week for a lot of people....but that night, there were more guys than girls in the club. the best thing about going to a club...is that guys buy you drinks =) so all you really need to pay for is coat check and maybe admission..(depending on the event). but did i mention that the free shots we got were absolutely DISGUSTING!? idk what it was called but it was green....so i thought it was pretty cool....until u drink it. tastes exactly like mouthwash!! omg i almost threw it up and gave it back to the bartender =/
so after debating whether we wanted to get on the dancefloor and lose our table or just take turns dancing, this guy comes up to us and offers to buy us drinks so we can stop being chickens and get on the dance floor. but the thing is, we werent being chickens because we were afraid to dance...we just wanted to keep our table so when we get tired, we can sit down and rest for a bit. so we decided to get the drink and lose the table =) which was a pretty good decision. after a few drinks, we started dancing...and then the dougie song came on and everyone formed a circle and guys just did their best dance moves in the middle. basically, long story short....i dont know how many guys had offered us drinks that night...and a lot of them, we had to turn down because it was just too much. funny thing is, after they buy us drinks, we end up ditching them, move somewhere else in the club, and another group of guys would offer to buy us drinks. near the end, guys would just introduce themselves and have drinks in their hands already!! i went home and all my parents could smell was alcohol. guys were just too generous that night. i dont know how many $50 bills i've seen going out the wallet and into the bartenders hand.
was a fun night though =) this one guy dragged me outside to talk and he was telling me about his apartment and showing me pictures and tryna get me to go back with him later....i was like SUUUREEE! =D and then ditched him after he bought a couple drinks. it was one of the best clubbing night i've ever had. and we're hoping to do it all over again the last weekend of this month =) it's the clubs 1 year anniversary on the 28th but my friend is having some sort of surprise event for us on the 27th...she says its party related and its not just clubbing so..im stoked! =)
my cousin is finally coming home from edmonton. she has been away for far too long! we've been through ups and downs but we've made it through together. i'm sad i wont be able to go and pick her up with her family but i will definitely see her when she's back! =) i also start summer classes in may. it has been far too long since i've been to school...i feel dumber and dumber each day! i can't wait to go back!

HAHAHA this is exactly how i felt a few days ago...only my cousin would understand who/what im talking about >=)

the video is finally out!

each ride took about 90mins but it was worth the wait with the sunshine =)

April.8/2012

hello world,
i'm finally back from L.A. just going to do a quick update and then off to bed i go because im hella tired! zzZz after last night, i kinda hope i go back to L.A. the first two days, i went to universal studios and six flags, the next two days after that i went to 2 outlets. so last night, i went to downtown and it was really pretty! i wish i was staying longer so i could explore more of downtown so next time i visit, i must skip the attraction parks and head straight to downtown and the beaches =) i also got to see a friend i havent seen in a long time! we met up really quick because she had to go to a party but it was nice seeing her after so long and she bought me macarons! =) she recommended that i go to Yard House for dinner and let me tell u...its AMAZING! it's like a really big, fancy restaurant...almost like a lounge area. i think the thing i miss most about this trip is the sunny weather and the boys ;) i was talking to my cousin about this but let me explain again. i noticed that when i was in L.A, everywhere i look, there would always be atleast ONE good looking guy....when i came back home, i had to look past a few ugly guys to come across a "better" looking one...i'm clearly living in the wrong country! haha and it sucks to come back to cold, rainy/cloudy weather when you were just in a sunny, hot place where you could wear shorts and tshirts and not have to wear a jacket! *sigh*, why wont summer come sooner =/ but overall, it was a fun trip. it's nice to get away from "life" sometimes. i wish i could be on vacation forever!

April.5/2012

hello world,
just a quick update. been in L.A for 2 days now...and im soo tired! went to universal studios the first day i got here and then today, i went to six flags. it was a lot of fun but super tiring. especially since you have to wait 90mins or more for one ride =/ but im loving the sunshine here =) it can get a little chilly at night times but still feels good that i dont need to wear a big thick/long jacket. been coming back to the hotel late at night and then i always need to wake up early in the morning cause for some reason, there's always traffic here in L.A. it doesnt have to be lunch time or off work time or going to work time....its always busy. so there's always traffic on the highways. tomorrow, i'm going to palm springs to do some shopping =) i hear its 30 degrees! but it's a 3 hour car ride so...maybe ill get a tan in the car? let me just say this though...ever since i came back from Southern...my friends always make fun of me saying that "once i go black, i never go back" or that im only into black people (-_-) not trying to prove them right but there are ALOT of good looking/fine black guys in L.A!! like DAYUM ;) especially at six flags and universal studios. haha i am missing out by being in canada =p and u know what sucks? i dont have wifi in my room...im all the way up on the 11th floor...and there's no wifi (-__-) i have to either come down to the lobby or use these public computers which im not complaining because they are hella nice computers! and there are like 6 of them in this little lounge so its actually pretty chill but if i had wifi in my room, it would be so much more convenient. i either have to pay for it to be in my room or its moves extra extra S-L-O-W. i will keep you updated as soon as i find time! but bye bye for now =)

March.30/2012

hello world,
had a day off today =) went out for some breakfast with a couple friends at this asian restaurant called Honolulu Cafe. best french toast ever! and then i went out with 2 of my other friends for some korean bbq in downtown. let me tell you, one of the funniest nights ever. met some pretty strange people there too! had some creepy guy following us for a while, and then when we finally got rid of him, there were these guys who were tryna talk to us while we were in the mall, and then! we were walking around downtown after dinner and we went to the wrong bus stop and these two guys there were talking to us trying to get us to go to the bar with them. but aside from all those "weird" people, i had a pretty good time. especially during dinner, i haven't laughed so hard in a long time. i dont know how many times i felt pain in my stomach from laughing too hard =) i've known those two since kindergarten. one of them was my best friend till grade 4...and then i moved schools and we lost contact until last year! "reunited and it feels so good" =) btw, did i tell u we have the same birthday too? lol

me and my best friend use to run away from this girl in elementary school =p she always wanted to hang out with us and we didn't want anyone to join us so we ran..good times lol


annd this is my best friend =) we still have so much in common after all these years..glad we found each other again!
