Yay, one day closer to the weekend. And trust me, it is going to be a GREAT weekend.

Anywho, I'm looking forward to tonight! One of me and Michael's friends is coming over to help restring my guitar (yes, I have a guitar, and no, I don't know how to play it. It needs to strings because our guest tried playing with it last time and it snapped :O). He's mostly vegetarian, so we decided to make our very own shabu shabu night!

For those of you that don't know (and this is assuming people read my blog, and also assuming that they reside in mainland America), the term "shabu shabu" means "swish swish" in Japanese, and it refers to a Japanese style of a hot pot meal. Almost like sukiyaki, but not as sweet.

The only thing missing of course, is the actual hot POT. I don't have one. But I do plan to get one (I might as well add a kotatsu to that list, then we can all re-enact scenes from Nodame Cantabile or Azumanga Diaoh... was that really nerdy of me to say?). For now, we'll use use a regular pot, and everyone can help themselves to boiled goodies.

Last night I bought:

- Dashi specifically made for shabu shabu

- Ponzu dipping sauce

- Sesame dipping sauce

- Chinese cabbage

- Bean Sprouts

- Sweet Potato

- Gyoza

- Edamame

- Tofu

- Udon

- Wagyu Beef (I think it's Wagyu... we might have gone for the cheaper one)

I guess it would be better with white rice, but we've got jasmine brown. Healthy style!

Shabu shabu is actually quite healthy, because you're boiling everything instead of frying and using oil and butter. It may get a little high in sodium, but that's better than high in fat and sugar.

I am soooo~ excited!!!

...and I WAS having a good day until my boss told me I need to be friendlier and say hi to everyone. =/ (wth.)

Hope everyone has a great day (better than mine)!

WOW WOW WOW I missed yesterday's post! Monday's are always the most hectic day out of my week.

Let's recap!

The weekend: I did absolutely nothing! I layed around, procrastinated, and didn't do a damn thing. It felt pretty awesome. =) I did visit the mall for a bit, and ended up shopping... which I didn't meant to do (I swear)! Michael and I were shopping for HIM, not I, and I ended up getting two skirts and a shirt. WTH? We also saw Resident Evil 4 in 3D, and it' was quite good. There's obviously gonna be a sequel, but I swear, they didn't explain ANYTHING in this movie. I think it felt a little rushed.

Monday: Work, work, work, then school. Nothing real big happened there. I got to have a little chat with my English teacher (also a reporter for the Star Advertiser) about how the writing industry was, and how I should go about becoming a professional writer. He gave me some good advice, and all in all it was a good day at school (minus Religion class). Although, our fish Dondo died on Monday! =( He was 3 years old! That's a big deal for a beta fish! I got him for Michael's birthday 3 years ago. I also had a yummy dinner that I treated myself to... Diamond Head Market & Grill! I had half a salmon wrap, pea salad, and some corn chowder. And for dessert? I opted for their famous Blueberry scones. MMM.

Today is Tuesday! I actually got paid yesterday, but my silly self doesn't have direct deposit and I didn't have enough time to go to the bank yesterday. I've got kind of a busy day after work is done as well. I'm gonna go to the bank, go home and study for a little bit, take my online religion quiz, and shuck off to history class. I hope nothing is due.

Ahhhh, i'm in love with the Maroon 5 Album. =)

TIRED.

Last night I went to a sports bar/grill locally referred to as "Red Lion" but the actual name on the door is "Rock Bottom". It was supposed to be a "get over your girlfriend that just dumped you" party for one of Michael's co-workers, but unfortunately the SEOTSed boy didn't show up. =/

Initially, I didn't want to go, mainly because everyone was going to get there around 10:30pm, and that's usually my bedtime (I start work at 7am, and usually wake up around 5:30am), so I was not looking forward to missing some well appreciated sleep. However, I realized that I hadn't gone out much and this was my opportunity to 1) go out and drink, and 2) put makeup on. Also, I did know a few people there, so it would be nice to catch up.

It turned out to be pretty fun. I watched the boys play pool (i'm not a good player and neither is Michael), met some new workers, and caught up with old friends. I also had my first beer on tap (I think it was miller lite or budlight), and it was surprisingly good. Like REALLY good. And cheap. And cold. Ohhh yummy. It was even better with the garlic bread/pizza and steak pupus. Om nom nom.

We stayed until about 11:45pm, and then they all decided to go to the Shack in Waikiki, but unfortunately that's where I had to draw the line. I finally got around to sleeping around 12:30am.

Therefore, I am tiiiiiiiiiired. 5 hours of sleep may be awesome for someone who usually gets 4, but for someone who is used to 8... it kinda sucks. I had to make a pot of coffee for myself this morning! I haven't done that in AGES.

Anywho, I don't really have many plans for this weekend, but I am sure looking forward to it. Relaxing, low key weekend. I think Michael and I are going to see Resident Evil in 3D, though. I've got plans to catch up on some of my blogs, and possibly either draw or do some video editing. I know I always say that on Fridays, but sleep always gets in the way! I do have a full-fledged SEOTS blog on the way though. =)

I've also got a test on Monday, so i've gotta do some studying over the weekend. Boo.

Hmm, I hope my co-worker comes back soon. She's going to Nico's at Pier 38 for lunch, and I asked her to get me something (Fried Ahi Belly and Lomi Lomi Salmon Salsa). My tummy is starting to rumble.

Have a GREAT weekend!

My milk is going bad today! That is probably the most out-of-the-ordinary news I have so far.

Today is Thursday (yay), which means three things:

1) I have History class today, which is usually somewhat pleasant. Especially if nothing is due today, which it isn't. Also, we're learning about South East Asia today, which is interesting to me.

2) Thursday is the pre-cursor to Friday, which is the beginning of the weekend for me. It seems like I blink on Friday afternoon, and all of a sudden it's Monday morning again. WTF.

3) Ahem, Jersey Shore is on tonight, ahem.

Aaaaand I just realized that another bill goes through my account today. Great. Yes, please, add more stress. Like I don't have enough of that already, THX. Why do all the bills go through BEFORE paychecks?! UGH.

C'mon week, hurry up and GTFO!

I am a slacker!

I didn't do TDP on Friday, OR yesterday. What is the world coming to?

I've been pretty busy. And yesterday I was just lazy. =____=;;

Here's a recap!

Friday: Normal stuff, work, home, clean, sleep.

Saturday: Woke up super early to film another "Artsy @ 4am" episode. We go and get some Mitsuken breakfast, and catch another somewhat disappointing sunrise. More cleaning and moving stuff around. Also, I babysitted my two rascally nephews. We watched a few movies, played with paper airplanes, ate mac and cheese and hot dogs. Yum! My friend Nicole also crashed on Saturday night. We stayed up till about 5am (I finally pulled 24hours of awakeness!) playing Boom Bloks (a game for the Wii made by Steven Speilberg and EA games... weird). Ahhhh i'm hooked. But that thing will really work your arm out.

Sunday: Woke up around 8, had some banana pancakes that Michael made before ultimately crashing out for the rest of the day, and realized that I couldn't go back to sleep. Stayed home all day, did some homework, and relaxed. It was nice. Then family dinner as usual.

Monday: Nothing new here. Work, school, sleep. It was Korean BBQ day though! Yum, Gina's taegu.

Whew! Today is another boring day, and it's been kinda hot lately (I actually had to take a cool shower this morning!). URGH back to mind numbing work. I need a sign that says "Will be your personal zombie for money" or something.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

I am sleepy today. I stayed up (somewhat) late last night studying for my History quiz today. It's a map quiz. I am part of the statistic that says America doesn't know where the eff other countries are. SADNESS. Last night the things that came out of my mouth were something like this: "Ohhh, Mexico is probably supposed to be shifted over a little, huh?" and "Where's the Philippines?" and "Venice is in Italy right? Or was it Greece?" and "How many continents are there now?" (now?! did it change in my lifetime?! lol). Yeaaaaahhh. Someone needs to kick it back to 5th grade.

Anywho, now that i've got a general fix on the globe and it's land masses and oceans, I feel pretty confident about the test, but I still feel like a shoddy human being for not AT LEAST knowing the countries and where they are. I am promising myself by the end of this year, I am going to know where every country is on a map, and how to pronounce and spell each correctly. That might be a tall order, but hey, knowledge is power. =)

Okay, only 3 hours and 30 minutes left in my work day. I can do this! Then I get to go home, workout (?) or study more, and got to school. Then after school is some yummy dinner, and then... and then... and then you know what's up. I'm gonna rot my brain a little more and watch the Jersey Shore smackdown between JWoww and Sam. Oh snap! I can't learn about countries without learning with the letters c, u, n, and t. XD

Have a great Thursday!

Not too much news today. It's Wednesday, the middle of the work week and i'm tiiiiired. This day is going by soooooo sloooooooow. I just wanna go home and curl up into a little ball and sleep.

But no, no no no. I have Religion tonight. Greeeeeaaaaat. More painful snoozefest to endure.

Also, right now I am having the most unholy obsession with throwback songs to the 80's and 90's. There was a radio station takeover on one of my local stations, and now they play old school music for "my" generation (i think it's actually a generation or two older than I, but whatever). My radio is permanently set there while I contemplate these awesome memories and exactly WHY I loved these songs so much, heh.

Bleh. I've got homework to do.

Hope y'all have a better day than I am.

How was everyone's weekend? The long weekend felt soooo great! That extra day really makes a difference.

Here's a short recap!

Saturday - Cleaned up around the house a little, and then spoiled myself with shopping! I got some clothes from Victoria Secret's Pink store, and Old Navy (I cannot escape that place). I also got my favorite scent from Gap (Dream) along with a new one I am trying (Dream More). My friend came over and we chatted for a while, hit up Walmart, and then got some ice cream from Bubbies.

Sunday - Michael and I got up early to watch the sunrise at Ke'ehi Lagoon. My original plan was to watch the planes take off from a runway at the end of Lagoon Drive, but there were no planes taking off. So we ended up watching the sunrise at the park, and filmed most of our journey. I'm planning on making it at least a bi-monthly thing, called "Artsy @ 4am" and "Artsy @ 4pm" respectively, depending on what time of day the filming is done. It's going to be from both mine and Michael's points of view, because we'll be recording with both of our phones. I think it's gonna be a cool cross vlog kind of thing, where you can see the same situation from two different perspectives.

Monday - Had some Banana Pancakes and coffee, and chilled at the house for a bit with Becky. We went to Sam's Club to shop for food, and grabbed some lunch and went back to the house. Then we picked up Nicole on the way, and all decided to help Becky with her art project. She needed to find 30 indexical things that related to "chains", and Michael and I filmed another episode of "Artsy @ 4pm". I'll edit it this weekend. It was a lot of fun.

And now, here's tuesday. I woke up late thanks to an alarm mishap. So I was an hour late to work, and now i've gotta make that time this afternoon. Grrr. I also didn't do much studying this weekend, and I have an assignment due today, so I've gotta do that during my lunch break. GREAT.

Well, c'est la vie (I know that's not spelled right). Work must be done, unfortunately.

Current Favorites:
Song: Connection - Taeyang
Reading: The Ramayana
Movie: Same
Snack: One Ton Chips! They are terrible for you! lol
Pastime: Editing videos! I'm gonna start learning Sony Vegas I think.

Have a great day!

TWHPIOTTIF.

"Thank Whatever Higher Power Is Out There That It's Friday."

Yup.

Ahhhh Friday, I've waited for your arrival for four long days. Now Friday, at long last you are here.

Now c'mon last 20 minutes of work, please go by faster. I do not want to be here, and would rather be collecting my paycheck and heading out for the day!

I have some great plans for this weekend, including getting some quality time with my friends bed and pillow, and getting drunk off of sleep. lol. In all actuality though, i've got a lot to do this weekend.

Plans:
- Wake up early tomorrow, grab some coffee, and watch the sunrise/take pictures of planes taking off :-)
- Blog, blog, blog. I've been slacking.
- Work on homework.
- Find my Corel cd, install it, and really work on establishing a comic style and draw, draw, draw. - Clean, clean, clean. Deep clean the house, and get rid of a bunch of stuff.
- After cleaning I can go shopping ^____^ I need sweaters/jackets for school.

Hopefully I have time to veg out on Monday. I heart three day weekends! I don't get another holiday until November T______T But I might take a day off for my birthday.

I hope everyone has a great weekend and a safe holiday!

LOL, the clocker-inner/outer machine at work says "THU SEPT 2TH 2010" lol. Tooth.

Good Morning! I am writing TDP early today, because... well I'm not sure, but I wanted to type something. This is probably not the best idea, because nothing has happened yet, but whatever.

MAN I can't wait till the long weekend (Yay Labor Day)! I don't have a lot of things planned, but I just love weekends. Besides the cleaning. And the grocery shopping. And the laundry. I like the lazy. The TV. The sleep. Yes.

Yesterday Michael surprised me with buying us the 3M Filtrete water station i've been eyeing out! I saw the commercial one day and I knew I had to get it. It's basically a water filter, but it filters directly into 4 waterbottles instead of a pitcher. The bottles are kinda weird, but cool. They're plastic, but they're BPA free, and hold 500ml's each. So now all I have to do to get adequately hydrated is pop two of these bad boys in my lunch bag and drink them throughout the day. The water tastes pretty good too (yes, I can taste the difference).

This weekend I am also looking forward to homemade banana pancakes and Coconut Creme coffee. MMM. And also breakfast with Becky, whom I haven't seen or talked to in 651951381985654 years (well that's what it feels like). She will be joining us for our vegetarian breakfast. Maybe i'll cook up some turkey bacon too.

Well, that's about all I have so far. I've gotta get to work on SO MANY THINGS. Check out my to-do list:

- Work on another SEOTS blog
- Aveeno Reviews for: Shampoo & Conditioner, Daily Moisturizing Body Wash, Facial & Body Sunscreen, and Daily Facial Moisurizer.
- Homework: History Q&A, Study for History quiz, Read History Ch.1, Work on Religion Dualism Paper, Read Ramayana
- Find CD and install Corel
- Sketch rough draft comic into Corel and eventually color and shade
- Post Fresh Cafe food blog on Om Nom Nomies and HI Stream
- Post Aveeno Cleansing Pad review on HI Stream

z0mg. I. Have. So. Much. To. Do. I think i'm gonna do a mass projectile blog on every site over the weekend. Ganbarimasu ne~!

Why do I always forget Tuesday TDP's? Weird.

Well nothing much happened yesterday anyway. So far it's been a pretty boring week. I suppose that's better than a bad one, right?

Anywho, today has been boring as well. I did have some AWESOME Korean BBQ for dinner last night, which then means that I had awesome leftovers for breakfast. :D

That's pretty much the highlight of my day so far! How sad! I also read that Michael Douglas announced that he had stage 4 throat cancer last night on Letterman's show. THAT's sad. He's optimistic about it at the very least, although stage 4 is pretty intense.

I also learned that September is organic month! I'm not sure if that's legit, and I am waaaay too lazy to look it up right now, so whatever. I'm just gonna assume it's organic month, and I will probably make an effort to eat organic foods for a few days before conceeding to Kraft Mac and Cheese (the original, and I will claw your eyes out if you say any other version is better) and brownies. Nom. I be rockin' the defeatist attitude today.

But then again, today is Wednesday, which means Religion class for me, so I'll probably be rockin' my defeatist attitude all damn day today and tonight. That class is the pits. I am bored to death in that class, and the teacher obviously could care less, and he's pulling out crap straight from the book. When pressed for further insight, he backs away, hands up, shaking his head and quoting the book. Not to mention he makes this noise between sentances that sounds like a chicken's cluck. "And Judaism was a western religion. KEH. And they were politically oppressed for a long span of time. KEH." KEH KEH KEH. It kind of sounds like a chair leg against the floor. It's really weird. Hate that class.

That class and entire campus is also very fridgid after about 6:00 at night. I am literally frozen trying to get to my car which is only 5 minutes away. I guess i'll be investing in some sweaters (parkas) this upcoming paycheck, because the weather is only gonna get colder.

Well, that's all i've got today, hopefully tomorrow is better.

Have a great Wednesday (we're almost through the week!).

What the eff?! Where has the time gone? It's the end of August already, and I could have sworn I was just looking forward to summer. Well darn.

So today is monday, and what a BLAH monday it has been so far. This morning was nothing special, however, I did have a bad dream last night. I don't really want to delve, but the dream was pretty self explanitory regarding my attachment issues. Blah, blah, blah.

Anywho, it looks like a beautiful day outside today. Another summer day gone as we hurl closer to rainy season here. Oh well.

This past weekend was not too eventful, but that's what I wanted. I wanted a relaxing weekend to sleep! I did get a new computer though! I finally got my first desktop computer, and it's absolutely wonderful. I know that seems a little counterproductive, seeing as I am a college student, a laptop or a netbook would be the smart choice. BUT I've had laptops my whole life, and yeah, as awesome as portability is, it's not everything. It's uncomfortable to type on a laptop, and it's usually somewhat heavy. Also, I never bring my laptop anywhere anyway, so a desktop is perfect for me. I just have to remember to turn it off at night because it will make my electricity bill skyrocket! I badly needed a new computer because my laptop can't hold a charge, so it has to remain plugged into the wall, the wireless hardware is unreliable (I think something broke in there) and I think there is damage to the sound card, because I can't even watch youtube or listen to iTunes without the sound being laggy. I've already transferred all my stuff off of it and onto my new computer, but I'm gonna clean up my laptop and wipe the hard drive, and then give it to my pc-deficient cousin. =)

Tonight my english class was cancelled, but Michael still needs to be there early. I guess i'm hitting up the library, to ... study? Study what? There's nothing to study yet. The backs of my eyelids I guess.

But mondays bring my current favorites list!

Song: Taeyang - I'll Be There (English version) (Off his newly released International album!)
Book: Currently READING (not favorite) The Ramayana
Movie: Scott Pilgrim VS. The World
Snack: Vegan cupcakes! AUGH so good.
Pastime: Fiddling with my new computer! Yeah baby!

Have a fricken GREAT day!

Woohoo it is 11:53pm, and I can post TDP for another 7 minutes and still be on time, so i've gotta make this short and sweet.

Had some of my friends come over tonight. That was fun. Made the mistake of drinking 2 cups of coffee about an hour prior to their departure. 6 minutes left.

So now I am awake, up, and about, and no one to talk to, and nothing to do. Darn. I tried calling my other friend, but it seems that she is sleeping. Boo Nicole, you suck for either 1) falling asleep because you worked tonight or have work tomorrow or 2) are completely oblivious to the sound of your phone. 4 minutes left.

This has been the week from hell, but hey, I got through it all in one piece. Started school, battled through an infection, got my period, and this weekend i've got some reading to tackle. Can do, can do. But for now, it's the weekend, and I am planning on taking it easy, and SLEEPING. 3 minutes left.

I am currently Solar-izing myself with Taeyang's I Need a Girl. I am also getting my desktop PC this weekend! Yeah, yeah, go ahead and hate on me. The fact that I have a desktop versus a laptop, or a pc versus a Mac. Blah Blah Blah. 2 minutes left.

I hope everyone has a GREAT weekend, and sleep/splurge/be active/drink insane amounts of caffeine and fck yourself over or whatever you're gonna do. With one minute left I bid you adieu!

I did not do TDP yesterday because I didn't have much time to do it! Soooo busy.

Anywho, my weekend was pretty terrible, so i'll just skip over that. I got up an hour late yesterday which was like one final kick in the crotch from the weekend, so I wasn't so happy about that either. But besides that, yesterday was fun. Work starts one hour earlier for me from now on, because I started school yesterday! I had two classes last night, and i'll have one class every night until Thursday.

And then last night, I also went to dinner right after school with some of my old coworkers. One was visiting from the Big Island. We went to Shokudo, a Japanese-fusion restaurant. I ordered my favorite, Sukiyaki Bibimbap fried rice, and shared a Shrimp Tempura appetizer. I had a Grape Calpico Vodka Soda as well. We also had some Honey Cinnamon toast and ice cream for dessert. Yum!

I had a strange dream last night. I was pregnant, checking into a hotel, and I had the top floor. It gradually became aware that the hotel was like one of those traveling hotels, with just a bed to sleep in. So my room was at the top, and it was basically a 10X15 foot box. I sat in the middle of the room, and I remember the floor being covered with astro turf. There were glass windows all around, so it gave a panoramic view, but I was very high up off the ground. All of a sudden I went into labor! Then the floor started to crumble, and I started to fall through, while in active labor. Then I woke up.

According to the Dream Moods dictionary website, pregnancy means a new stage of life, like some kind of new era. Being on a top floor means being successful at something, as if climbing a tier. Breaking ground means uncertainty, or unstable feelings toward something, and fear of failing.

The new era in my life is school, and I am very nervous about it. My brain was just flipping through the events of the day, and the feelings I had about them. It was kind of jarring to feel the same feelings I felt when I attended the same school and classes 4 years ago. I remember while in class, thinking "Am I actually here? In the same school? In the same class? Is it going to be the same as last time? Am I going to drop my classes again?". But I will try my best not to, because it's not really an option anymore. Ganbarimasu, ne?!

My neck hurts. I must have slept on it wrong. Crap.

Have a great day!

Happy Aloha Friday Everyone! It's my favorite day of the week! So much to look forward to!

This is the last weekend before the school semester starts for me. I can't believe i'm going back to school... it's a love-hate relationship I suppose.

Anywho, this morning a roach decided it wanted to celebrate my friday with me. EW. So this morning I had to declare war on the unwanted intruder, so I sent Michael after it. ^_^ I'm a girl afterall, and I am decidely powerless against nasty insects. Guh. After a few failed attempts, he finally nabbed the sucker behind the couch. Roach-san, you've been PWNED. I also sprayed some windex on it's wiggling feet just to make sure it was double PWNED.

But, then my coworker brought me some yummies from Lox-Of-Bagels. OM NOM NOM. AND she's getting me Kaka'ako kitchen for breakfast! Oishi~desu ne~~

I am determined to make it a GREAT weekend. I'm kicking it off with going back to school shopping with a friend tonight!

Thursday! I made it! Thursday is the tease to Friday, which is the tease to Saturday. =)

So this fine Thursday has been absolutely gor-juice (who get's the Yotsuba english manga reference?! >_<)! I am looking out my windows in my office and feeling pretty sad that I can't go to the beach right now! There are barely any clouds in the sky! AUGH. But, alas, I am stuck, stuck, stuck at work like a clogged drain. But that's okay. Gotta make the money somehow. I went to Subway for lunch today, and oh my, it was so much better than I remembered. I think it's because I haven't had in a long time. See, I had this Subway ban in my head, because I generally don't like sandwiches. But I guess it's good every once in a while. I got a turkey 6'' on honey oat, with bacon. OM NOM NOM. I'm not going to share my vegetables because that's intimate. That's like sharing my lip chapstick. Only with the closest friends. The. CLOSEST. Friends. Without coldsores. Anywho, not much going on this thursday. I've got a SEOTSed blog coming up, i'll probably work on that tonight. If I don't forget. And if i'm not too busy watching AHEM jersey shore AHEM HACK COUGH. Gawd.

I'm still determined to get a KC waffle dog this weekend. Who's down?!? Yeaaaaah.

Wednesday! Smack dab in the middle of the work week. Blargh.

Nothing new has happened today, but I did have a very interesting conversation with a friend about faith. ^__^

I did find little mold specks on my sponge cake though! T_____T I tried to pluck them out but then I found a few inside too. SEOTSED! I had to throw it away.

I can't wait till the weekend, and Monday! For once (I hope) it will not be a dreaded monday.

I hope to hit up the beach this weekend (and every weekend!), relax and have some fun with friends. Then Monday is my first day of school, and I get to go to dinner at Shokudo with some old co-workers! I am excited!

Damn, it's still Wednesday. I got ahead of myself there. I still gotta get through Thursday and Friday. Booooo.

Is it seriously only tuesday? Damn.

I wish I could dance well. Or rather, be in shape to dance. Watching Big Bang, and more specifically Taeyang's music videos... makes me want to move like that! Too bad i'm 1) too shame to do that in front of people and 2) no one wants the jiggly. All bad. Maybe someday.

*Sigh* Today is cleaning house day when I get home. I've been avoiding it for the last week and a half... clothes strewn about, small rubbish not taken out, makeup all over the place, floor unswept, tub unscrubbed, dishes dirty, and laundry not hung, and not washed. Soujioshimasu!

I have been having a most unholy urge to play DDR. But I want to get back into it physically, not just with the remote. I think I would love it as a workout. How nostalgic! Is that dorky of me? An almost 22 year old playing DDR? Would it look weird if I went to the arcade to play? Yeah, that'd be weird. I wonder if they still do the coin thing, and I wonder if newbs still steal coins. Oh shit, they don't even use coins anymore. Hah XD

ZOMG I'm so tired. I was busy editing and uploading this weekend's pics to Facebook, and stayed up till about 11:30 last night. I got 7 hours of sleep, but it feels more like 2. JEEZ.

BUT this weekend was SO MUCH FUN. Recap!

Friday: After work, a few friends came over, and we had a little mini party. We had sopme dinner, and then went out for some coffee and cake. We also watched some really bad Bleach live action, while doing our nails. Wewt. My friend Becky also crashed on our couch, because she had a 22 mile trail run the next morning.

Saturday: Woke up somewhat early, and didn't do a damn thing =) I really needed a nice relaxing moment to myself and that's exactly what I did. I should have worked out or cleaned up, but I was just WAAAAAAY too lazy. Becky came over after her race, and I finally took the plunge and did makeup on her. It turned out pretty good! A little too natural for photography, but we got some decent pics.

Sunday: A short visit from Becky in the morning (WOW i've seen Becky all three days!), and then Michael and I went shopping for some new clothes for him. He also bought me a Fedora! =) we had some lunch, said hi to a few people in the mall, then hit the beach! Yesterday was one of those absolutely BEAUTIFUL days where the water was crystal clear and cold, the sun was shining and perfect, and even though there were a lot of people with irrirating kids, it was just fun to be at the beach. Ended sunday with the normal family dinner, and my Aunty Barbara (my mom's friend) visited from Las Vegas. I hadn't seen her in about 9 years! I am still very tired. I'm not sure how i'm going to get through this day!

The Daily Pink!: August 13th, 2010

First and foremost,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KELLI!

I love birthdays! I love getting my close friends gifts because it's an opportunity to be thoughtful and nice without it being weird. LOL.

I am feeling very, very strange today. I don't really believe in superstition, and today is Friday the 13th. But I suddenly got this strange, sad feeling. Kind of like self-pity, but I wasn't thinking of anything in particular.

I'm not really feeling great today; I couldn't sleep last night, I was tossing and turning because of the heat I think. Also my elbow was hurting (I contribute that to my budding carpal tunnel), and I woke up really late this morning. Look like crap, feel like crap. Oh well. I just gotta make the best of what I have today.

I am not sure why I am feeling the way I am feeling today. It almost feels like the pre-cursor to an anxiety attack, but my brain has not spiraled to that point. It feels very uncomfortable. I can usually throw on some awesome Big Bang music and drown out my worries, but it's not quite working today. I think I just need some time to myself to unwrap these feelings and figure out what's bothering me.

To be honest, I think i've been kind of depressed on some unknown level. I've found that I have cycles of being proactive, and being listless and sloth-like. I'm in one of those stagnant periods, where i'm not being active, not being helpful, being lazy and generally scattered. I really wonder how school is going to affect this cycle. I have a feeling I'm gonna need to get myself together this next week before school starts. I think i'm going to take this weekend to unwind, and next weekend to gear up.

Breathe in, breathe out. Big Bang. Type, type, type. Chai. Type, type, type. Water. Breathe in, breathe out. Get a grip. Smile at the computer screen. GRIIIN. Inhale, exhale.

I'm looking forward to some hopeful relaxing pauhana tonight.

Have a great weekend!
