A Friday to myself...

  My current song obsession: Benny Benassi – Cinema (Skrillex Remix)
I could watch you for a lifetime
You’re my favourite movie
A thousand endings
You mean everything to me
I never know what’s coming
Forever fascinated

Hope you don't stop running
From me cause I’ll always be waiting


You are A cinema I could watch you forever
Action Thriller I could watch you forever
You are A Cinema A Hollywood treasure
Love you Just the way you are
A Cinema A Cinema A Cinema
A Cinema A Cinema A Cinema


Lalala, I actually heard this song a while back... but since tiesto started putting it in his set, everyone knows about it... :) 

    Lately I've just been working, and saying at home... and occasionally going to hot yoga, and I've gone to swim once. I've been shopping twice... but nothing really caught my eye. Oh well, save my money for buying a new desktop and laptop. I should find one soon.. or I'll have a PC desktop and buy a macbook in september.

   Last week, I was such a mess. I went into work on Sunday late and crying. I didn't know that I could get that stressed out. I was taking pictures of my work in the kitchen at home, and my dad comes home to yell at me. It's all he does. He just yells... It pisses me off, and makes me want to rebel. I don't understand why he can't just ask nicely, or be nicer. He still blames me for the car that was written off, and he got mad at me for wanting to ride my bike. *ROLLS EYES* Well... he got mad at me because he had to take it down the wall... but I could have easily done it myself. I've grown an obsession of hating to be babied this year. My mom is ALWAYS on my case. "Have you done ____ yet?" "Have you brought this with you?" "do you have an umbrella?" "Is your water bottle filled?" BLAHHHHHHHHHHH LEAVE ME ALONE. lol I know most of you miss that, and think she's sweet for remembering, or thinking of me.. but I'm just so fed up with it. I want to move out... 

  Anyways, moving on... My manager had to come in from 7pm to midnight to stay with me because I was too unstable to work alone... and I left 15 minutes early. On Monday, I woke up early and went to school to put together a portfolio... Meh. whatever. It's done. I went to work super late though. I was suppose to start at 3:30, and I didn't get in until 7pm. ha ha ha.... 

  Work has been frustrating too... I worked 30 hours last week.. and that doesn't sound like a lot, but it seems like that's all I do... my friends always ask me what I'm doing, and I always say work. I think it's because the shifts I get are usually 6 or 5.5 hours long, and I work 5/7 days week.  
  Our lives have been so different. I think the main thing I have learned this year was that... I can always rely on my best friends... no matter what type of mood I'm in. Even if I haven't talked to any of them for months, we just click. We can go on talking like we've never stopped talking. 
   I was talking to my pharmacy friend about the new people she hangs out with now, and such. It's interesting, because to come to think of it... I haven't even thought about texting or messaging anyone that was in my classes this year. (Minus Graeme because I needed some  pictures from him... and his messages are always ridiculously funny.) 

  Speaking of people from my classes... Congratulations to Daniel Toumine, and Sam Shapiro in getting into Dalhousie! (Don't kill each other) :P It's crazyyy... I think this year is the first year I've known so many people to leave edmonton for the upcoming school year. 

  I was suppose to go to the gym... but I left my house keys at work, and my parents weren't home... so I couldn't lock the door. LOL FAIL. They just got home... and I think my dad is in love with Costco. If you see a middle aged chinese man taking all the food samples and putting it in his pocket... that's probably my dad. Hahaha... Actually... I don't think he's the only one who does it. There's probably a mob of chinese people around those tables waiting for 'free food' 24/7. HA HA There I go stereotyping again. 

  Hmm, now that I have keys... and my parents are home, I should make my way to the gym. :) 
  
I didn't take any new pictures to share... nothing too interesting has happened.... except Teresa and Jessica made stuffed mushrooms. Yummm. :) haha I'll post those another day. 
  
FOR NOW, here is a picture from way back in december. 
  
  
  What cuties. LOL it was their birthday, and we didnt have time to get them a cake, so we got them mushed jello instead. HA HA... "We made the Jello, can you taste the love?" Tiff: /nods

So cute. OKAY.  GOING NOW. TTYL.

It's a Thursday

  AND THAT MEANS TOMORROW IS FRIDAYYYY. Hahaha, just kidding. 
This is a pretty random post. Mostly because i'm too lazy to do anything else. 
I was suppose to go to school this morning to work on my portfolio, but I am so unmotivated right now, since I officially started summer break. HAHA. I worked last night as well... It was random, because there was an hour long scheduled blackout. We kicked everyone out before then, and there were 6 of us in the store. 
We sat around the front end area, because that's where the emergency lights on generators were. It was pretty... creepy to say the least, but we had fun talks. 


  I'm so excited these days, because people come to see me at work (well, I think they just come in to shop, and I happen to be there)! It makes it go by way faster, and I never get any actual work done... but you are all customers, so it should be fine. So thank you Jessica Lieu, Somarly (even if I missed you), Cindy (LOVE YOU!!!), Sabrina, and Kalmy and Dennis. Amanda Fayad and Melissa Cardinal came to see me a couple nights ago too. OMG, so funny. I loved it... mostly because Amanda had a little too much to drink and was hitting on the pharmacist, Dexter. LOL He's so shy, and blushes way too easily. It was cute.


  YESTERDAY, Dexter, Kaylee (my cowoker) and I were having a conversation about trips and vacations. Out of no where, Joanne comes by and tells us that there this dude that comes in to talk to Dexter for hours. She was saying how cute this customer is and lalala, and all of a sudden, dexter's like, "I'm not gay." I ROFLLED SO HARD. Not because he said it, but it's obvious he wasn't. Kaylee and I were soooooo confused, but it was funny. 


  Random, but I want a nerf gun. Please? 


  The assistant manager at work, Tom, was in his office one day, and I stuck my head in and stuck my tongue out at him. HAHA. He's like, "Just so you know, that was kind of weird." 
  And I said, "Some people think I'm weird, but I'm just weird." LOL I don't know why I say these things, but I think my life goal is to make people laugh. If you laughed at that, then I have succeeded. 
  
  I recently realized that the way I talk these days (and type) seems kind of dumbed down. I think it's because I work in the Boutique. I remember being hired, and working on the floor.. and no one understood me when i tried to explain a concept to them. Tamara, my manager, told me to dumb down my sentences and talk slower... and customers eventually understood what I was trying to say. LOL Not saying that I'm writing for dummies or anything, but I feel like my language skills have deteriorated. I should do the whole "word of the day" thing again.. like I did in High School.


  Dammit, I just saw my brother's tweet. "#westjet seat sale to/from edm until 4pm today! $69 to Van! For travel till June 30." 
I missed it... GRRR. I still haven't purchased my ticket to vancouver yet too. 


  THERES A NEW GIRL AT WORK, and her name is Jennifer! I like her so far... she's so funny. We were trying to figure out mutual friends, and I mentioned Jessica Hoang... and she said that name sounded familiar... and she just friended me on Facebook. I was browsing her pictures, and there was a picture of her and her sister... I was like.. that girl looks familiar.  and... it's "SJade Irony". I don't personally know who she is, but I see her comment on Jessica Hoang's facebook page all the time! HAHA! SMALL WORLDDDDD. WORD UP. '


WHEN SHALL I DO MY HAIR AGAIN? Or should I even? I really liked the color last year... 
Here's a random picture from last year. LOL 
It's in the bathroom, and Teresa is drying her hands behind me. 
It looks like she's trying to be a mime. 8D

Bahaha, since she wanted me to do a blog post, I put this picture up. >=) 

Another random. 
I bought these shoes yesterday!! 
I love them. Too bad they're like 4" high. That makes me 5' 11". 
Sometimes I wish I was a midget asian. 
Actually 5' 4" would be soooo ideal. 

I think one of my projects this sumer is to finally make a banner for this blog. LOL.. I've put it off for far too long. Maybe I'll hardcore photoshop one of my pictures. HAHA. P.S. I never photoshop any of the pictures i posted on here, unless it's for sizing or cropping. I'm too lazy to do any of the other stuff.. even changing the colors. /sigh. I have to practice taking more professional looking pictures... I think. 

It's 5:04pm. I was thinking about going to the University to see the graduates of BDesign's exhibition in FAB at 7pm. I'm really cold right now, and I want to wear these shoes! LOL (Yes, I'm wearing them inside the house).  Nobody's free to come with me. :( I might just go and... chill with people I see there. #lostpuppy.

Hehe, well... I don't have much of anything else to say. 
BLOGAGAIN next time,

My Weekend, mini face, and SPRING HAUL!

DISCLAIMER: I know that some of you don't know that your pictures are going on here... if you mind, please email me or message me and I'll have it down asap. 

    Hahaha! I know most of you girls love seeing what I haul in. It's kind of embarrassing.
I actually buy a whole lot of other stuff in between the hauls as well... I might do some reviews if anyone is interested!


    You're welcome to skip this part by scrolling through the pictures and figuring out which are the haul pictures.


    SO this past Friday, I got to chill with 3 of my girls! It was really fun and exciting, because we haven't done this in a while. It really brought back memories of the past summers we've had together. I had to work from 8am to 4pm, so I was really exhausted. While I took a nap at home, Tiffany and Adelaide were shopping. They texted me to wake up at 7pm to go eat! First, we had to pick up Jessica from work though, so we headed there. It was funny, because Adelaide and Tiffany bought vitamins there. DID YOU KNOW they sell Rock and Republic jeans? I laughed really hard.


    We made our way to the South side Tropika. It's supposedly authentic Malaysian Cuisine. More like americanized. We ordered pineapple fried rice, Laksa, and pad thai that tasted like ketchup. I think the most enjoyable part of the meal was just being together. hehe.

Done exams...

AND I REALLY WANTED TO DIE.

Ha ha. I'm so embarrassed right now. I don't think I've ever done so bad on an exam minus Math 113. FML.
Yesterday, SO EMO.. hence my little blog post. That's okay. I'm becoming more Melissa-like... after today.

THIS is what I have been constantly thinking about for the past few days. It was that great. LOVES IT. haha!

Here are some photos.

My girlssssss... LU & RAN YU.

HELLO SUNSHINE!

HOW'S EVERYONE DOING ?

I miss high school. FO REALZIES.
  House parties and not coming home until 12am on a school night when you're under aged? YEEEEE. lol Good times. yep. that was like... what?

I'm sorry for the lack to attention I have paid to everyone. I was just really busy with school, and I still am… but I'm procrastinating so that I get to spend my nights at school. You know how it is. hahaha. I broke my laptop screen two weeks ago. I'm still pissed off about it... but oh well. It happens. I think it's going to cost me $120 to buy a new LCD screen (says ebay), so I might just do it. My brother can help me install the screen. I'll buy a macbook pro when the new school year starts, because I'm so short on money right now. I keep buying things I don't really need. materialism.

Go take a look on my facebook if you haven't seen my sharkey stool. He was pretty lame, but I enjoy him nonetheless. I need to work on finishing the wood better.

Last Friday, I found out something very devastating to me... TIFFANY GOT INTO OPTOMETRY. LOL I'm excited for her, and I'm excited that she gets to pursue her career... but CHICAGO? You srs? I love her, and I don't get to see her even more? :( /sigh. Jillian is going to waterloo as well. At least they’ll be on the same side of North America. Hahaha. Adelaide and Jluong are leaving me for Hong Kong in July tooo!! although I won't even be in the city at the time either. I'm going to Los Angeles with Cindy and Nguyen. I feel really... sad. I don't know when we can fit in our yearly trip! I was hoping to go camping... even if we stay in a cabin, it would be super fun.

Here's a random picture of my flowering tea. Yum. :)
