I can do the banter thing. I can do the URST thing. And the being shocking, witty and entertaining thing. That's fine.
But if the other person had real-life attributes that I'm really looking for someone else.. therein lies the warning.
I might be in trouble of getting involved with this person.
The URST, I'd be able to handle.
But the rest of the geek social ineptitude? Ohh noooo... I am an absolute sucker for geeks. It's my secret MO.
Just wanted to put it out there so I can look back and remember.
hmm... |

Eternal thanks to Zee, whose makeup tips from years (and years) ago prove invaluable and endlessly useful. I actually look 'nice'. Hehe. |

First time to post using my cell. It's the second day we don't have freaking internet.
Was looking through lists of high school friends. I'm amazed at how many are now married, have kids, or both. So many of them are wives and moms already. Can't help but wonder if I missed the bus somehow.
I haven't been idle myself. Since I graduated high school, I've gone and finished college. I went to work. I guess where others focused on the parenting and coupledom side me adulthood, I took the career bus and stayed on. I'm not complaining, though. I like where I am, and I don't think I'm ready for parenting yet. But still. Can't help but wonder what I could've been if I took that path.
Maybe I'm meant for a good long journey of self discovery. |

Got home and immediately trooped to my room to deposit new girl back I got from the office. I promised Mom I would be more.. erm.. 'responsible' with my money, thus the cap on my spending habits. Well, I've definitely cut back (of course!). It's just that.. well, the bag was calling my name! And besides, I got Mom a second secret one that I'll keep until her birthday next month.
(Yes, I really buy presents weeks.. months in advance)
Can't stop geeking out over http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/main?page=2 and other sites that feature small homes and DIY decor. I'm a girl with a budget and a hidden desire for interior decorating. I am determined for the condo to show my personality and taste when I move in there.
So many decorating ideas to choose from!
I must start finishing up on the how-to documents for my work. Heard about some crappy rumor about my boss not really liking me. Pissed me off for a good five minutes. After that, I calmed down. Because, really. What good will it do everyone if I confront her (In corporate-speak, this is called "feedback") about it? It's going to make her even more paranoid about her friends' loyalties, and will cause a pre-attrition rift that will not improve on the existing non-relationship we have. Better keep status quo and make it an amicable separation.
Should enroll this next term once the schedule comes out. Apparently I thrive on being busy. I can't stand being idle, and it drives me crazy not to be passionate. Going back to school will keep me sane. |

| Cut and color. |

Red highlights under red-brown tints and my shoulder-length semi-blunt cut hair.
I love it.
I should've let them keep the highlights on longer so the color is brighter - oh well. Next time, I will let it stay thirty more minutes so that it's Allison Iraheta-red. |

| | Home (Dishwalla) | ] | April is my last car payment.
As of today, Bubbles is now OFFICIALLY MINE!
And this is the first time EVER that I've ever completed a loan in my life.
Dang, it feels good.
So now, I need to look at property. Car now, condo next. And school.
Golly, how am I gonna survive the recession?
I know!
One coffee cup at a time. As much as I love you, espresso roast, venti Caffe Americano, I love my classes more. Our daily sessions will have to be cut back to once-a-week (Mondays will always be the exception).
I was asked once how come I'm thinking of buying myself an apartment, not a house.
I could, you know, save up a little and start buying a house of my own.
But I won't. Why?
Because.. because I don't want to do my house-shopping alone. Because I really want to buy a home and make a decision on a house with someone I can have a family with. I have the right to keep that little hope alive, right?
Therefore, I am not buying a house. |
