People, Places


Today was not my day. I'm in my post-pms phase and my hormones are behaving, yet i woke up this morning with thick cloud shadowing the top of my head and it was raining. I was really tired (Edward was not the cause of it this time) and gloomy when i got up today. Nothing felt right. I almost arrived late at work this morning. I had hope that maybe my usual 'tasse de thé' can lid up my mood but i was condemned to start a bad day from the start. Here's how the story goes: The barista at Starbucks insulted my taste buds with the wrong tea and to think that i gave her a pretty fair amount of tip tsk tsk.

During work, i was more stressed than normal. Usually we get a fair amount of clients during the weekends and i can handle crowded places, but this time it was just too much. People just kept coming in and out of the store. I was running around like a maniac trying to help out as much as possible. Some clients were fairly polite, while others where just plain rude. A few of them pissed the heck out of me today and I felt like smacking all of them. After we closed down the store, we were left with a mountain of works to fold and put back at the store. It took us an hour and a half by the time we were half done until our assistant manager called it a day. Just as i was about to go home and end my evening peacefully, it started to rain, literally. Wtf, rain?! IN THE MIDDLE OF EFFING DECEMBER??? I swear, we have the strangest weather in Montreal. I remember two Christmas ago where we didn't have any snow. So much for a white Christmas

Today was just not my day. Thank god i have the day off tomorrow. I haven't planned anything other than staying at home and read New Moon which i have started last night. I've just started the book so i don't really have much to say but i did read enough to feel like strangling Bella at the moment.

Never Think

I can't believe i haven't touch blogger in two month T__T I am totally disappointed in myself. I can't really blame school because to be honest, it wasn't a busy semester. I can't blame work either because i work part time. I should have more than enough free time on my hands, no? So what were the causes of my absence during this whole time? I can maybe narrowed it down into 3 categories:

1. Laziness/ Sleep deprivation
2. Old School and New School TV
3. Edward Cullen (and anything related to him)

I love to sleep. Sleeping would be one of the greatest gift God have giving us humans. What would i do without a good 8 hours of sleep? I like the quietness and peacefulness of sleep. The darkness that night time can consumed you. I also like the lightness and the freedom when our brain starts to go through a story telling process called dreaming. I like the feeling that i get when i wake up the next morning, fully energized and ready to start the new day. I LOVE to sleep. But despite all of that, i didn't get really much of sleep due to the fact that i always end up sleeping late and waking up the next morning really early. I would say the average amount of sleep i get during the last two months were about 4-5 hours a day. Clearly, it was not enough for my tiny body to handle. I did try going to sleep earlier, but things don't always go the way you want them to go. Hence, i ended sleeping most of the time, when i can.

I also haven't had the chance to go online lately. When i do, i only check the basic stuff such as e-mails. I would youtube and facebook once in a while, the same goes for msn. And it doesn't help when both of your brothers are PC whores. I've been doing lots of quality TV time catch up lately. I have bought myself the first and second seasons of The OC, and for my birthday my boss gave me the third and fourth seasons. Yes, i know i have an amazing boss! That really brought back memories. I watched all four Christmukkah episodes on Christmas. Teenyboppers shows these days really ain't nothing compared to what we used to watch back then. I do admit i have a guilty pleasure watching a few a them from time to time. But one of my biggest guilty pleasure would have to be Gossip Girl. I really hated the idea of it at first. I remember watching the first episode of the first season thinking how lame and materialize it was. I expected more from Josh Schwartz. It wasn't until season two started and since then, i haven't miss one single episode. GG is just darn addictive. I still think the story plot is lame but some of its characters are just irresistible and everything about the fashion. I'm a Chuck and Blair shipper all the way. Rather than finding them cute like Seth and Summer, they are definitely hot together. Those two are, in my opinion, the key ingredients for the perfect couple cookie. May i also add that their once-in-a-while-make-out-session-in-the-back-of-the-limo is pretty sexy :P

The next subject of my lack of online time would have to be Robert Pattinson aka Edward Cullen from Twilight. Here comes my fan girl obsession again. I've never heard about the book until i saw a few post about it in some forums. Later i found out they where making a movie about it and saw the cast pictures. I wasn't really paying attention to the lead actors except that I remembered recognizing Robert's face as Cedric, the guy from Harry Potter. The whole time i couldn't understand why teenager girls where making such a big fuss over it. Again, i was mocking them going gaga over the so-called hot vampire. I decided to give the movie a shot one day (I always tend to watch the movie before reading the actual book). Little did i know, that hot vampire turned out to be the reasons for my sleepless nights and consumed my thoughts everyday. Right after the movie, i babble about it all day until my mommy got me the book and i have thanks her ever since :D I'm in love with Edward Cullen and picturing Robert Pattinson as him in every chapters just makes the reading more pleasant and enjoyable. I just can't wait to start New Moon!



Rob Pattinson as Edward Cullen.
His well defined jaw line is to DIE for!!!

A New Start

Hello blogspot and goodbye LJ! It is now time to let go of the old and embrace the new. Although I wasn't a frequent updater on LJ, i still had a few things in there that i cherish a lot and it was my first blog ever. I was also inexperience when i comes to write about random thoughts. After a few post, it all concluded to this; i feel like i'm writing in a diary... except people get to read it (duh!). LJ felt more private than public like i initially wanted it to be. Therefore, i wanted some change and blogspot was the perfect start. Plus it's so simple to use. LJ is still open, so those of you who are in the friend list, i will update once in a while in there.

Talking about new I have officially turned 18 years and 24 months last Monday. I can't believe that day have come so soon -sigh- It seems just like yesterday when i was still a little kid running around carelessly with no responsibility whatsoever. It went from eating animal crackers and drinking milk to consuming religiously junk food and soda, and soon later becoming a caffeine addict. Time sure fly by really fast. Not long ago i sorted through some old papers i saved from high school and found a lot of surprising stuff. Have you ever set up a goal when you entered a certain age in your life? I remember 5 years ago, we had to write about our goals and what we would like to accomplish 5 years from then. Reading what i had written down made me laugh. Things just doesn't turn out the way you want it to be. Hence, it's reality. But strangely enough, some of it haven't changed. I still would like to have a career in whatever i major by the time i turned 25 as well as being in a committed relationship with a person that i love. By the time i'm 28, i would like to at least start a family and retire by the age of 65. The future is so uncertain that anything can happen. Since this is the start of a new chapter in my life, i would want to live my life to the fullest and try to accomplish those goals i wrote for myself 5 years ago.

I hope that this blog stays with me and follows my adventure into -gulps- adulthood.
