My favorite...

oldies song. Or at least top 3. Carry On My Wayward Son by Kansas. NICE.

Performed by a 10 year old Japanese girl.

I feel so inadequate next to this kid's talent.

The Death of Lazy Sundays

Ah, I miss my good ol' lazy Sundays that I enjoyed in SF... actually I enjoyed lazy Sundays until I got my job at the spa.  The work is going well I guess... I can't really complain too much.  Well, except the pay is a big slap in the face but whatever.  The hours are good, the people are nice, the work is terribly terribly easy.  ESPECIALLY on Sundays... almost no one shows up and I just end up surfing the web all day... which is basically what I did at my previous job... heehee. 

But I'm already thinking about what kind of job I'm going to take in the summer... most likely a full time job where I can slowly win over my superior's trust and confidence.  Then once that kicks in, I can revert back to my true form: lazy lazy lazy asshole.  I'll also need that trust when grad school starts in the Fall as my schedule will have a few constrictions.  It'll be more free than my schedule now, but it will definitely not be easier.  I kind of think my schedule now is pretty laid back, but it does suck having to go to class three days a week.

Statistics is turning out to be not so scary which is interesting.  While my online class is turning out to be MUCH harder than I thought.  Online classes are NOT for procrastinators. Yikes. So now my reality has become the opposite of my previous expectations.  Where am I getting all these big full-of-shit words? Oh. Yeah. My online class's homework.  I guess above all the bullshit and lameness of the class, it's actually an interesting subject.  Just not delivered so well.  

On a more personal level, my life is boring. Just as it has always been and will always be. Depressing thought? Maybe. I've come to accept my quiet, boring, and well, sad life.  I watch a lot of TV, hang out with all the same people (which isn't a bad thing... I love my friends), do all the same activities, eat at all the same restaurants... it's just all so predictable.  I need to take a vacation perhaps. Well! Actually, Susie and I are going to visit Ellen in SF.  I've missed her... hanging out at home in Arcadia is definitely not as fun as hanging out with Ellen in SF. *sigh.

Okay. Well, Saturday night I actually went out to a club so here are a few pics for your viewing pleasure.  Although I've already sent the album to Susie, Chris, and Cheech... maybe Brian can enjoy them.

Robot Dog? Which is better... YOU decide. Heehee.

First watch this video. Then watch the video below. Hilarious.


*Note: actually, watch the videos in whatever order.  Still hilarious.

Inspired

So, Brian and Cheech have both updated their blogs. How exciting! I randomly checked them today and huzzah there are new posts! Weee. Ok, so quick update for me. Uh. The last few weeks have just been school, gym, TV, and naps.  My online class is surprisingly harder than I thought while I'm doing pretty well in my statistics class.  Hm. I would've thought the online class would be a total cake walk whilst the stats class would kick my arse. Anyway. That's mostly what I've been doing. 

On the job front, I finally secured myself a part-time job that's close (about 6 blocks from PCC) and the hours work out PERFECTLY with my school schedule... which is fabulous.  What's more fabulous, is that I'll be a receptionist at a SPA.  Probably one of my most favorite places in the world.  I get discounts on massages and facials and spa products. Ah, heaven.  I also get a free massage and facial when I start... which is tomorrow.  I'm not sure when I can claim my free massage and facial, but trust assured... I'm going to get a massage soon.  I found a place also near PCC that offers 60 minute massages for $40 or 90 minute massages for $60.

Regarding my gym progress, well since I haven't been working and have just been trying to find ways to entertain myself... I've been going to the gym like 5-6 days a week. Wow. I know, it's incredible. Especially for me... the laziest person ever. Boredom can do that to a person I guess.  On top of my own gym excursions, I've been seeing a trainer once a week.  With all my hard work I've managed to lose NO WEIGHT whatsoever. Really. It's terrible. But I am getting some results. I've lost an inch off my hips, inch off my waist, inch off my thighs, 1/2 inch off my calves, 1/4 inch off my upper arms, and 1/4 inch off my forearms. Which is pretty amazing.  I think I could achieve even greater results if I changed my diet a bit. That's not going to happen, but I'll try.  I've been getting better about eating breakfast (like half a PB&J sandwich or just a instant breakfast drink thingy) but I can't keep away from carbs and candy and pretty much any junk food that makes itself available to me. Hm.

And as far as any updates on my dating life... well. There are none. It's sad. I'm a loser.

Oh yeah. I also got accepted to my grad program. :) Thank goodness. So starting in Fall, I'll be a full-time grad student. God help me.

Aww Jason Mraz is ADORABLE.


I just downloaded all these random songs on iTunes...

1. the lovely Jason Mraz single
2. Usher - Love in This Club
3. the rest of the Jordin Sparks cd... hey, it only cost $7. I like that "No Air" song...

I won't lie, I love terrible pop songs.
