Parsons Smarsons
The more I delve into the fashion world during my paid time at work (I know, I seem to be a petty criminal stealing time at my corporate job), the more I'm really thinking of taking a dive into Parsons' new Masters in Fashion and Society program. If they had something similar to do here in L.A., particularly in the P.R. industry, then I'd just ( Read more... ) -
You are Forwarned, this is a TMI Post (just read it with a sense of humor)
Okay, is it time for me to start worrying about what this week might bring? Just today, I was given some not surprising news that I may not be getting a raise next year. Not like it would have made a difference if I had, considering that the last few have only been a notch in burger bucks. Yes, that's right. Each raise helped me afford at least ( Read more... ) -
'Tis the Season with No Reason
I have four more days to get into the "Christmas Spirit". Typically, I get into the mood some few days after Thanksgiving. That isn't the case this year. I think it's because Christmas was thrown into our faces hours after Halloween ended. Stores began to advertise their holiday specials, and I'm assuming all for good reason - the recession.

Art & Arturo
Where is my Julia Child to pull me out of the deep end? I just finished watching Julie and Julia and couldn't have been more inspired by the film. I would really love to read the book. But knowing me, and my lack of skill in finishing a book, I will just add it to my (very long) wish list ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
The last time I wrote, I was being a bit cathartic about the way I felt among friends. After careful thinking and observation, however, I've decided I was being a bit too dramatic. You see, I was used to hanging out with my best friend so much in the past that I was almost convinced that's how friendships had to be (this was also at the expense ( Read more... ) -
Is it Karma?
Ugh, sometimes I try and avoid writing these entries because it just seems so repetative (and pathetic). I seem to try too hard just to have people like me, but it feels like nothing works - even when I don't try hard. I wonder if it's me that's just not interesting to them. I like these people, and I certainly don't want to lose their ( Read more... ) -
RE: PostShame Much?
I am such a crazy bitch. I should never assume things. But hey... I still made calls to friends and co-workers when I was thisclose to dying from pneumonia once. -
RE: PostSecret Commencement Speech
UCSB Commencement 2004
I believe the most memorable commencement moment was sitting next to my best friend, flaunting our ridiculous designer sunglasses, and enjoying the drunk frat boys around us. Then there were tortillas being thrown around like crazy. I probably don't care what the speakers said that day because those people rarely played such ( Read more... ) -
PostShame Much?
I have no shame writing about my current state of Loserdom. I'm a masochist. This is a sad reality I'm currently facing (yes, I know there's worse)...
I bought some clothes from a sample sale - Marc by Marc Jacobs. It made me happy, until I realized it just wasn't enough. It doesn't fill this void in my life that feels kind of empty. I miss ( Read more... ) -
G.M.S.
So after days of losing sleep over fun, I finally ended the weekend in an anti-climactic way. I suppose it's fair enough it end that way since I need sleep; it's best to take a break and just renew.
I had a somewhat-happening weekend spending it with friends, but got a little disappointed towards late Saturday. I've avoided letting my insecurities ( Read more... )
