listening to >>> "lala" by lucy pearl
I just got finished watching the Janet ICON special on MTV. I liked it a lot! I loved Destiny's Child's rendition of "Let's Wait A While". That's always been one of my favorite Janet songs. I didn't like Macy Gray's thing, nor did I like that rock version of "Nasty". But overall I liked the show. Janet lost weight! She looks good.

I turned in rental applications for this one apartment complex today. I really hope we get approved because it's in a really nice area and the building is really nice. I also hope we get approved because I'm friggin' sick of getting turned away or other people beating us to vacancies. Argghh. I never realized how hard it really is to find an apartment. Thank GOD I didn't spend 850 bucks on those coilovers I've been drooling over! Or else if we get approved for this apartment I wouldn't have enough money for the rent and deposit.

Sooooo anyways.... tomorrow I'm gonna go to the new and used music joint that I frequent to look for some old Janet albums. I've been on a CD buying binge lately. In the last week or so I spent over 100 bucks on CDs alone. Geez. I'm back to my old spending habits. Not good Mae! Not good! Damn I'm gonna be strugglin' for money once I start paying real rent for my own apartment.

I have to think of a nice wedding-esque love song to sing at my aunt and uncle's renewal-of-the-vows shindig in April. My sister told me to sing "I Believe In You and Me" by Whitney Houston but ehh.. I don't think my voice can do that anymore. I was gonna take the easy way out and sing "Valentine" by Martina McBride since I've sang it at like four weddings already. Haha.. but naw I'm sick of that song. I gotta flip through my old piano books for some nice peices. Hah.. just when I thought I had already hung my "wedding singer" hat I have another gig to do. Ahh well it's fun at times. There are the occasional cute friends-of-the-family guys who show up. Hehe.. I'm bad.

Does anyone have Photoshop 6.0? I seem to have lost the copy that my good friend Gully burned for me when I made the move from SD to LA. And besides, that copy he gave me might have been corrupt cuz it kept freezing my comp when I tried to install it. Help a sista out?!

OK... I'm gonna go look at some more apartment listings in case we don't get that one. *knocks on wood* Goodnight!

listening to >>> the humming sound of my computer
Ahhh Monday morning. It's 7:37 am. I actually got to work on time today at 7:00 am sharp. I took a shower before I slept last night at around 1:00 am, woke up at 6:00 am, and did my normal routine. I brushed my teeth three times (cuz I'm anal like that), washed my face with all that cleanser shit, brushed my hair, still damp from my shower a few hours prior. Lashed on my mascara, popped in my contacts, got dressed and went downstairs in search of some breakfast. I bought a box of my favorite cereal last week. Cinnamon Toast Crunch. I was anxious to have a bowl of some, but alas, I open the refrigerator, and there I was in my very own "Got Milk?" commercial. Blah. So I just gulped down the last of the Orange-Guava juice, grabbed a cup of yogurt, an apple, and an orange for lunch.

So that's how my morning went. My body is still aching from having slept the wrong way. Last night while I was tossing and turning trying to get to sleep, I could hear every bone in my body cracking as I moved. *shudder* My left shoulder feels like it's dislocated. I can't move it without wincing with pain. Boooo.. pain sucks. My hair smells nice though?

Well the main idea of me coming in to work two hours early every single day is so that I can get some work done. Yet here I am, blogging in my journal. I haven't done jack shit since I got here. Ahh well. Not like I'm getting paid extra for overtime anyway. Yup that's right kiddies, I'm salaried. I get paid the same amount every pay period, no more no less, regardless of how many hours I work. I suppose it could either be an advantage or a disadvantage. However I have the type of job where I work way more than 40 hours a week, so It's a disadvantage. *sigh* ... story of my life.

Worky work time. Bye.

listening to >>> some tagalog song, i dunno it's pretty
Before I get started with this entry, LEE and AIVY I'm sorry I haven't returned your e-mails yet. I've just been a lazy bastard and haven't done much outside of work these past few weeks. Give me a day or two and I'll eventually respond. Haha.. damn I'm a freak.

I'm so tired of looking for an apartment. It's not even me doing the actual searching, it's Kristine, and I bet I'm not half as annoyed as she is. Every time we find a place, within a couple days it's already rented or some other bullshit goes on where we can't rent it out. Arggh. I'm so not motivated to even look. I wish I could just take one day off from work and spend the whole day looking for apartments. I can't afford to do that though, it would wreak havoc at work. Also, one day of not working for me means 3 times the work I'll have to do the next day. Ack.

I talked to Jason on the phone for hours last night. We never ever do that. We never even talk on the phone unless it's to make plans! I want him to finally meet someone because he sure as hell deserves it. I was THIS close to talking about trying it out again with us two. If you didn't know, we sorta had a thing for a couple weeks. I ended it, I'm just too scared of our friendship going sour. Whenever I date someone and it doesn't work out our friendship NEVER remains. I value Jason's companionship as a "brother" too much to let that happen.

Besides, I'm on a no-boys diet remember? Heh..

My aunt is really starting to bug me. She nags me almost as much as my mom does! If not more! She doesn't get on my case for some of things my mom does, but then she also gets on my case about some things that my mom doesn't! Argghh.. I can't wait to have my OWN place gahhdamnit. I'm tired of having to answer to people!

OK next subject.... my car. I don't want to sell my civic to some stranger because my parents already made plans to buy it. I'll feel bad if I sell it. So what I'll have to do is wait a couple months until they can afford to have another car payment, then I'll buy a new car. It works out well too because I'll have a little more credit history to possibly get a car loan from the bank all by myself. If I don't get approved for a car loan, I can get one through my company. Dope. Knowing my parents though, it will take more than just a couple months before this thing finally goes through. In the meantime I'm still gonna keep modding my civic with parts that I can take out later and use on the GS-R. I'm just so tired of my stock looking car! Ack! It's just so horribly normal!

I figured maybe if I blogged a lot more often like I used to, people would start visiting me again. :) Hopefully, because I'm feeling the urge to blog again. Ahh well we'll see what happens. Until next time!
