shopping spree
i’m trying to save money…. but i went shopping yesterday. sometimes when you have a long week, you just need a little pick me up in the retail department.
valentines day... 15 days away
last year my valentines day included, doing a project and going to chipotle with a “friend.”
this year, somebody better fucking ask me out on a date. it’s not that i love valentine’s day, or that i’m some girl that really loves commercialized holidays. but, when you’ve been having guys in and out of your life for the last 2 years and nobody has been nice...

in regards to the last entry, went out to a bar in LA with my friends and professor and bought my professor a drink. vodka on the rocks is his drink of choice if you are curious. this might just be one of the most entertaining things about the weekend.
(there might be photos from the bar somewhere…)
but in regards to art LA and the los angeles art show: i do not think art fairs are for me....

POLAROID ENTHUSIASTS - READ THIS! they might have just answered our prayers.
not paying attention
i got another new iphone from the apple store because frankly iphones suck. mine are always breaking! it’s my 3rd one and i hope it has no problems. but this post isn’t about how much i hate iphones.. it’s more about how i don’t pay attention to what i’m doing, which always comes and bites me in the ass.
i was at the store, and my old screen cover for my phone had...

on the bus to school
in a crowded bus on the way to school, i grab the only free seat
guy: you smell good
me: thanks.
guy: what is that? your lotion?
me: yeah it's my lotion.
guy: is that vanilla or something?
me: no, it's cocoa butter.
awkward silence.... more people get on the bus on the next stop
guy: at least three of the people that just got on were wearing cowboy boots. i guess it's cowboy boots season.
me: yeah.
girl gets on the next stop...
guy: i like your bag, it's shiny.
girl: thanks.
guy: it's like wow, in those silver places.
girl: yeah.
guy: what's that db stand for?
girl: dooney & burke.
guy: what's that?
girl: oh, it's a designer.
more awkward silence on the bus, both me and the girl try not to look at him for the rest of the ride.
amy millan - i will follow you into the dark...
he said, she said
i don’t know why i’m always surprised that high school behavior, isn’t high school behavior… it’s EVERYONE’S behavior! people always will talk about you behind your back.
i guess as you’re older, you should just not let it bother you?
toilet troubles
my toilet is broken again… i’m starting to wonder if i should just get an entirely new one? i doubt my leasing office would comply though.
the no-license/car dilemma
alright, so today my professor introduced me to this guy who is a potential investor/donor for this arts center he wants to start up. i’ve been really excited about this project since i heard about it. and he was going to a meeting with the director of sushi and the manager of stingaree which he invited me to go along with. however, i ended up skipping it because 1) i had not eaten and 2) it...
it's 80 degrees in january - part 2
okay, it’s 80 degrees out, and i was going to go to the pool, but i’m a bit too lazy after class and it’s kind of too hot. so i have decided to stay in and do homework and stay out of the sun.
it really feels like summer right now.
It is 80 degrees on January
Just got home from school. It’s 2pm. I’m going to go lay by the pool and tan… Maybe I shouldn’t move out of SoCal?

when i move out of san diego in the summer, one thing i will miss will be warm winters. i’m going on a picnic today with some friends, and i definitely wouldn’t be able to do that if i was living in seattle or new york. or, i would but it would be a different kind of picnic.
Things I ate today:
1 slice of banana bread
1/2 cup of orange juice
1 bag of popcorn
Mini sizes goldenspoon
Being poor/saving money is effecting my eating quite a bit…
