assault on rosary?

i was looking on etsy.com, a place where people sell & buy handmade stuff, and i found this:


wow! a hello kitty rosary! eek. it's been weird to see rosaries become such a fashion trend, but this hello kitty rosary is way off. i was always taught that you shouldn't wear rosaries because they're sacred- you should only pray with it. i know it's not a real rosary, but it's kind of mocking. 

perfect gift for hello kitty worshippers though. it's all yours for $28.00.

getting caught in action

when i do anything remotely sneaky, i feel guilty. i also feel this rush... a thrill. even if it's nothing big. 

for example, today. i checked my email at work! what a bad girl i am. you have to understand that i work in a very tiny office inside a bigger office (kind of like michael's room from the office but 2/3 the size) and there is only one computer. the screen faces the door so people who are passing by can see what i'm doing. but my boss was out of the office, taking pictures of properties. 

i felt safe. she had other errands to run this time so i wasn't expecting her to return for a while. i checked my gmail and even started writing an email to alice. i had about three paragraphs done when she walked in

silently. she didn't intent to be so silent, i think. she's just like that.
i guess i should've been more careful~

she didn't say anything, but i was so nervous that i panicked and i quickly tried to close the window. it gave me that stupid "ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO EXIT THIS PAGE" yes or no thingies so it didn't go away fast enough. my palms were sweaty. so many things were passing through my mind. omg omg omg. what to do what to do. 

it's been two weeks and i haven't done anything wrong yet. and i'm really scared of my boss.... i've seen her yell at other people. i really didn't know what to expect. surprisingly, she didn't say anything. she might have not caught on though, since she is somewhat computer-illiterate. either way, i'm never checking my email again at the office. at least not for a while.

9 to 4, errday.

i thought i liked routine. and i did like it until i started my 9-4 job. 
omg so boring... haha. honestly, it's only been 3 days and i can't accurately tell you how i feel about the job yet. working in the real estate business is a lot of paper work, time and being selfless... at least for me it is. 

anyhoo, have you heard the new musiq soulchild? there's this song called 'radio' on his new album on the radio and it goes:

whatever i like i put it on my radio
you can probably find something new on my radio
if you wanna ride (cool) just don't touch my radio

and it cracks me up!! the song sounds kinda funky too. it doesn't sound like what you'd expect from musiq. 'if you leave' sounds a lot more like him. it actually sounds really similar to 'teach me' except 'if you leave' features mary j blige. 'if you leave' and 'until' are my fav's from this album. my all time fav from him though, is 'don't change.' teehee. i love me some r&b~

Ghost Town

yayy another entertaining movie! i love it when a movie is good. it doesn't feel like i wasted 2-3 hours haha =) 

the synopsis sounds a bit drab: a dentist who dies for 7 minutes during an operation can suddenly see dead people and they ask him a bunch of favors. since he is not a people person (actually he hates everything about people), he ignored their dire requests to help. 

one dead guy stood out to him though because his wife happened to live right below the dentist's apartment. do you smell a romance? yes, the story develops around their relationship. she helps him become friendly and less of a prick. it's categoried under comedy and it definitely is funny and witty. 

the dentist speaks with an english accent, which kind of makes everything more fun somehow. it doesn't have much action in it, which might bore you a little. it's just not that kind of a movie. 

it got 84% on rotten tomato, which is pretty darn good. check it out when you have a quiet evening to yourself~

808's & Heartbreak


kanye west's latest album '808's & Heartbreak' was released on 11/24/08. i really didn't like love lockdown, which started playing on radio a while ago, and it didn't welcome me to his new album. i thought his second title song,  heartbreak was just aiite but after hanging with lois on thursday, i was sold on his album. she really likes the new album so we were listening to it all day in her car, during production, etc. it's very different from his previous works- very indie, i have to say. 

there isn't one happy song on this album. he seems really heartbroken. i'm sure you heard his mother died. it was big celeb news... and he broke off his engagement to fiancee, alexis phifer not long after that. she was a stylist and i thought they looked good together... but anyhoo. my favorites are street lights (this song kind of breaks my heart a little), welcome to the heartbreak featuring kid cudi, and tell everybody that you know featuring lil wayne.

well, he debuted at number one on billboard 200. that should mend his broken heart. 

my baby



i think my blog is like a pet to me. i could not wait to blog this whole weekend! i've been just busy with everything but i've been wanting to blogggg haha. now that i'm done with all my things that are immediately due tomorrow, i can stretch my two feet and typeeee. 

i just wanted to talk about the short movie on coco chanel that karl lagerfeld did. it's on the chanel website

i heard he was making one a while ago and i was like... he can make movies? he's amazing at everything else he does such as photography and FASHION of course so i was excited.

i am so glad it's free. haha! the model who plays chanel is so pretty. i never thought i would enjoy a silent, b&w film but this one was funny, entertaining, and like candy for my eyes. 

i really respect karl lagerfeld. and he's half the reason i love chanel <3

finals week

this coming week can either make or break my grades. 
i am pretty sure i am getting all a's in my classes... it's just a matter of how good of an a. 

i am worried about english 1c and american history. for english, i've been getting a minuses on my essays. ugh. keeping me on the edge of my seat. i cannot let it tip over to a b. history should be ok as long as i get an a on my final. it's not accumulative so it shouldn't be too bad... except our professor is a bit psychotic and some of her questions are unpredictable. 

someone said to me
if there is no such thing as an a plus, there shouldn't be such thing as an a minus. 
i completely agree!!! 

i wish everyone GOOD LUCK on their finals-
and don't drink too much caffeine. you NEED sleep to remember what you studied !!

boys

i was looking through my old magazines for a project and i found an article that i thought was absolutely cute. it's from ellegirl, which folded in 2006. it was one of my favorite magazines on the same level as teen vogue but somehow it got cut =(

the article is titled "we ask nine random guys" and they asked guys at Ozzfest in LA "how is a girl like a song?" it's by sam comen from the dec/jan 06 issue. there's pictures of 9 guys and their answers. i left out 3 bc they were stupid.

there may be a long verse, but it's worth it cause the chorus is gonna rock.

ulysses, 20
a song can enthrall you just like a girl can.

michael, 21
girls are just like music- you like what you like.

danny, 19
it depends. some make you sad; others make you wanna rock out.

ryan, 17
girls are like songs in the sense that they're beautiful and there's nothing like them in the world.

sean, 19
you have to listen to them to figure them out.

wow sean got it right on the dot! listening isn't the only thing boys need to do, but it's a big part of a relationship. i just thought i'd share.
