um hey.
so i know i've been really lazy and not updating with pictures from hawaii, or my crazy party weekend last week. :(
i will though, as soon as finals are over and i can breathe again, lol. i'm seriously stressin'.
anyway, i just wanted to say that i'm thinking of applying at MAC, and i have an application and resume ready for them, but i'm just not sure if it's something that i really want to do.
after working at hollister, i swore that i would never have a retail job again, but maybe MAC will be different, there's more expertise involved and i love makeup to death. is it right for me? should i apply?
the more i think about it, the more i doubt whether i do want to work there or not.
help! any words of advice or wisdom will be much appreciated!
thank you, muah!

hmm.
so i'm leaving for MAUI, HAWAII on wednesday!!!!!!!!!!!!! i'm so stoked and excited that i can't even control myself! hahaha!
wanna know the best part?
my plane ticket and hotel stay are paid for by my two guy friends, busta and george! would you believe it?!!?! they decided the only way to get us all to go on the trip was to pay for us! free trip? SIGN ME UP! lol
WHOA so amazing!
anyway, i'm trying to do some packing right now and ..... i'm not one of those people who can "travel light". i like having my options when i pick out what to wear so i'm bringing so much clothes! it's horrendous, really. i need to learn how to pare down... or bring a bigger suitcase.
and my makeup. OMG i don't even know how i'm gonna bring my crapola along with me! i'll have to pack it into my carry-on because there's NO WAY all my makeup is gonna go through being tossed about in the luggage/cargo area. PSH. DON'T WORRY, I'LL PAD IT, I'LL PAD IT!
ok wow i should go to bed!
and i think i'll go shopping tomorrow, i need a zip up sweatshirt that matches everything because i don't want to bring like 5 different jackets to match my outfits if i only really need 1 jacket! (but it's supposed to rain in hawaii while i'm there, and i really really really hope that doesn't happen!)
aaaah. what should i bring? what should i pack? what should i not bother with? i need your advice people!!! (especially if you've been to hawaii! tell me what you did there and what i should expect!) danke!
(oh yeah, i'm definitely spring breakin' it right now, thank goodness! and i got my hair done again! red and blonde streaks, nothing too crazy, kinda.)
mm sleepity sleep!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGHHHH!H!H!!!!!!!!!!
i can't take it anymore!
school is kicking my ass and i'm paying for it in more ways than one.
well of course, i'm stressed out, but that's led to my eyes pretty much being bloodshot all the time, sometimes i can't wear my contacts because they're so irritated. also, i went to the doctor's today because i thought i had gotten a UTI (ugh) but ... i really didn't? it's weird, i'm on antibiotics though, but i'm not experiencing anymore pain. whatever, doc says it might be triggered because of stress and not enough liquids.
also, my face was breaking out so i tried out an aspirin mask (you make a mask out of crushed aspirin, supposedly works well), and it pretty good results, glowy skin and all, UNTIL i started breaking out even more! &)(*&#)!!&&@W! i hate having sensitive skin and i'm pretty much gonna go to my dermatologist and tell him if he doesn't put me on fuckin accutane i'm gonna burn his office down.
SO. physically, i'm fucked.
mentally? well let's see, i have papers due up the wazoo, tests and quizzes almost everyday and outlines and resumes and projects and WHEN THE HELL IS THE BUSINESS SCHOOL GONNA TELL ME I MADE IT INTO THE PROFESSIONAL PROGRAM?!?!
seriously i'm so ready to give up and say fuck it because i can't keep doing this to myself! i'm constantly tired and grumpy, on meds and waaaay fucked up that i'm not really coherent and well HERE'S AN EXAMPLE: usually my sense of direction is shitty, but i was driving home from the doc's today and i couldn't REMEMBER how to get home. i was going in the total opposite direction for like 5 minutes before i realized WTF i was doing. WHO DOES THAT?!!??!?!!
i just wrote up my resume for my professional writing class and it looks like someone took a dump on a piece of paper, it's so horrible.
OH GOD OH GOD HOLD MY HAIR BACK i'm going to bed

the young man in that picture is jason. (and the girls are lexi, jessica, me and ashley from left to right)
jason is leaving tomorrow morning for the Marines.
this past weekend has been a bunch of parties just for him, but it was pretty much just one big party anyway.
ash and i went over to his house after class today to bid him farewell and everything, and when i was driving home, i was just really, really, really freakin sad because i've known this kid since like sophomore year of highschool and he's always wanted to go into the Marines, and lo and behold, that day is tomorrow.
jason, you'll be missed and we will all be waiting to take you to the river on may 19th!! boot camp may kick your ass and call you a girl but we'll always know you as man killa. hahahhaaha! thanks for being there and beating up any guy in sight who offended us (or you). I'LL MISS YA KID!!!
okay, after my cute little tribute to one of my close guy friends, now's the time to tell you guys that right now is the CALM BEFORE THE STORM. why? well............
this week i don't have much due in my classes and everything should be relatively flowingly easy.
but next week and the week after is gonna kick my ass twice and throw me in a big pile o' poop. FUN!
all those tests, quizzes, papers and projects will not be kind to me :(
but there will be a nice incentive of SPRING BREAK as a reward, thank the lord!
and i'm not allowed to spend anymore money! i have to save for the trip to rocky point!
far is solace in the maddening pace
sad state written on my face
not a tight rope walk but dance
uncertain game of chance
but I'll see it through in time

i went to MAC today for a little retail therapy since the last few weeks have been pretty shitty and stressful.
i got:
-Eyeshadows in : Hepcat, Coppering and Jest
-Select Cover-Up concealer in NW25 (i hope this doesn't break me out, blah to sensitive skin)
-Brushes in: 228 (mini shader, this was an impulse buy), and 182 (the kabuki, impulse buy as well lol)
here's me being a dork with the kabuki brush:
uh excuse the messy hair, it likes to do its own thang.
in addition to today's purchases, i've also got packages from cat cosmetics and sasa.com comin my way.
i'm addicted, i swear :(
also, tonight was the blacklight party. thank goodness no one wrote on my shirt with highlighter, i would have been pissed! except AJ caught me and drew on my face so that was attractive. is highlighter poisonous? or toxic? some of it got in my mouth and if i die, i want my makeup collection to be sold and the money donated to breast cancer research. or if my parents give it all away, whoever gets my stash is a lucky bitch.
my best friends copped out on me again tonight. that's nice.
i feel so jumbled inside right now, like everything is knotted up and i can't breathe.
maybe it's the highlighter.

valentine's day is over, thank goodness. i don't know how much more gushy crap i could handle. hahaha. it was EVERYWHERE. no i didn't wear red or pink, or have roses delivered to my door with balloons, chocolate or whatever grand gestures are now part of the holiday. nothing cutesy for me today.
except that lexi left a little heart shaped bag of candy on my car so i had a nice surprise when i was leaving for class. of course, it scared the crap out of me, because i had no idea what it was, and i was like WTF IS ON MY CAR!?!?! OH SHIT!!! and it was a bag of candy. i felt like an idiot. hahhahahaa SEE? i'm not good with surprises! this also proves 2 points: 1. i'm really paranoid about my car, 2. i'm too cynical for this crap.
:)
i DID, however, help ash do some grocery shopping because she was cooking her bf dinner. then i went home, took a nap, watched sex and the city reruns and ate a lot at dinner.
i've actually never been this happy about being single. haha it's kinda weird. instead of moping that i'm single blah blah blah, i'm actually kinda enjoying it.
okay back to accounting homework. and lord knows how i hate doing that.

i've been kinda stressed out lately so i decided to treat myself to a gift.
i went and bought myself a pair of SFAM (seven for all mankind) jeans. well okay, they're the cropped length but i like them alot. through a bit of research, i've discovered that i bought the "Ireland 'A' Pocket Crops". they're really cute, i love the wash and the A pockets are multi colored: purple, light blue, a slate-ish blue and navy. i'm ready for spring with my new seven capris! haha! maybe i'll hotfix some swarovski crystals on the pockets.
i took pictures of them:

i'm in an unusually good mood right now, which is strange, seeing that i have alot of homework that i haven't started yet.
also, i think i'm getting sick of my icons and i'm lookin to make new ones but i haven't had the time.
my parents have been arguing alot lately, and it's been affecting me negatively but i don't think they know that.
spring break approaches. (3rd week of classes and all i can think about is spring break! lol) i shall try for rocky point, mexico, this year. i might get a no-go from my parents but i'm gonna try REALLY hard this time. i didn't go anywhere for spring break last year and that was miserable.
in MAC related news (i haven't talked about it in a long time, so bear with me), i received my So Ceylon mineralized skinfinish today!!!!!!! it's limited edition and hard to find (for a decent price) and i snagged one! i did a little happy dance when i got the package too!
:D
alright. off to do my topic outline for my public speaking class and progress report for my business writing class.

well hola!
this is new and improved, nicer, and gracious me reporting in...
classes start tomorrow!
it's going to be another tough semester, partly because i'm taking Human Sexual Behavior, a psychology class that has a rep for being challenging and difficult, although very interesting. no matter, i'm just very excited to be taking a psych class again. god i just love it!
the good thing is that i have no classes on fridays!!! so it's a 3-day weekend for me, EVERY weekend. no dice, you might say... but i say HOLD UP! this is the first semester where my schedule has allowed for no friday classes. and since i'm the virginal one in this matter, i say DICE, bitches!!! haahahhahaaha!
took the drive to campus today to buy my books. blah. books are RIDICULOUSLY expensive and i don't appreciate it! yes, that's right! i said it, board of college educators! LOWER the prices of books, gosh darn it!
i also have a new found liking for America's Next Top Model. i never watched the series because i used to think it was stupid. but i have done a 180 and now have an appreciation for it! i even got my mom watching some episodes with me! thank god for all day marathons! the photoshoots are FANTASTIC, watching the show just makes you wanna get out there and be a model! haha go tyra yeeea tyra!
off to bed for me now, let's get my internal clock ticking the right way. (psh LOL!)

so it will come as no surprise to you guys that i'm not the NICEST person in world.
i'm a bitch, i'm mean, i'm elitist, i think that most people are stupid and not worth my time, i hold grudges, i'm vindictive sometimes and i am generally pessimistic and cynical.
and...
it's hard for me to admit this.
and please know that this is something very close to my heart...
BUT...
i do this because i'm weak.
they are my walls.
my defense mechanisms.
i'm overly sensitive and easily hurt.
.... hurt too many times.
forgive me.
i do apologize if i have intentionally, or unintentionally, hurt you in any way.
and it's taking ALL of me not to just delete what i've written.
or make it friends only. or whatever other ways i can make myself less vulnerable.
epiphany?
yes.
also, like i've said. i like fresh starts. and i'm ready to grow into a better person this year.
please tell me i'm not crazy.

i'm just sitting here happily surfing the net, browsing forums and LJ communities, about to paint my nails and go to bed.
but a wave, perhaps more like a tsunami, of emotions just washed over me.
let's just put it this way, i'm quite glad 2005 is over. not that it was really horrible or anything, but i like fresh starts.
i miss my brother A LOT. just seeing his spare razorblades and other stuff he left behind in the bathroom makes me so sad. i missed him sooo much when he left the first time but i kinda got used to it, ya know? and now he's gone again, after a week. i just feel so lonely again.
the other stuff that's making me feel crappy right now doesn't even deserve to be written about. ugh.
FUCK.
WELL. here are my resolutions:
1. i'm going to take a card from meg and use her old resolution. Find Love. yep. i want to find what it looks like, what it feels like and how it just fucks up everything. (sorry my cynical side is taking over right now)
2. have no expectations for situations because they lead to disappointment.
3. for the sake of my parents, attitude readjustment. i want to try to be less snappy and argumentative.
4. loosen up a little bit. i've gotten uptight over the last few months and i don't like it.
i think those are more than enough for me to handle.
ugh.
night.

happy new year!!
i hope you guys had a good one, with lots of friends and champagne! :)
mine wasn't too exciting, just a party in tempe at mucho and paddy's apartment. i was driving however, and since the cops were EVERYWHERE, i stayed very sober and had my kronik energy drink with me. designated drivers woohoo..
lexi was at work and only got there in time for the countdown, which was quite uneventful. i don't know what i was expecting, or not expecting, but it was probably by far the most humdrum countdown i've ever experienced.
and no, no midnight kiss for me either. because #1: there was no one there was halfway desirable, and #2: i don't want it to be with just anyone, haha, he has to be someone special, at the very least.
regardless, i kinda just sat and watched everyone get absolutely sloshed and watched dudes try their hardest to hook up with some chick for the night. it was quite funny actually, busta and i kept up a running commentary on everything that was going on in the apartment....
for example:
:: this guy and girl that we don't like, who happen to be a couple, were canoodling in a corner, and everytime they went at it, you could hear us go "oh god not again *wretching noises* ok well they deserve each other GIVE IT TO HER!!" hahhahahhaa
:: another girl whom busta found to be very hottttt, would walk around all over the place, and every time she walked by, it was "I JUST WANNA BANG HER!!" (busta, of course), and "WHAT A SLUT!" (me... well i had reason to, she's a biatch, especially to ashley, and since ash is back in south africa, i felt the need to defend her honor)
:: so another guy, tryin to get with this girl, but the girl wasn't really having it.... and they were standing by the beer pong table, and they were talking. someone accidentally hits the light switch and we were in momentary darkness... the lights come back on and they're making out. someone turns the lights off again for their benefit, but we see the girl dislodge herself and RUN AWAY from him. HAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHA oh man it was GREAT! "ha it was like YEA YEA YEA..... NO! DENIED!"
LOL it's funny to watch people get rejected.
and i'm really mean. hahahaha!

a couple quick things:
- school's out! yay! no classes and finals and homework and school stress for a month! fantastic :)
- impatiently awaiting my grades however.
- my hair is CRAZY! i haven't had the time to take some pictures yet, but i will. also, i probably should have taken pics the day i got it done, because morgan (my hairstylist) did such a great job with the cutting/highlighting/styling and it looked SO GOOD. except that since i haven't had short hair in soo long, i kinda can't style it very well.... yet. (also because i don't have a lot of hair products because i prefer to go without, BUT i guess i have to go buy some styling shit now)...... SO. its collarbone length, with blonde highlights and blackish red lowlights. the cut is really blunt (thanks for the suggestions !!!) and kinda choppy in the back. honestly, i think i look waaaay too emo for my own good now, lol!
- ash has left for south africa for a month and it sucks.
- too much drama at the office for my tastes, ugh. people can be such idiots.
- I GOT A NEW CELLPHONE! check it out!!
it's the new nokia 6102. FLIPPIN' SWEET! a nokia flip phone! and it's all mine :)
my parents wanted to switch over to a family plan from cingular (and i was technically still on a AT&T plan anyway) so i got a new phone. hahahha i went ahead and got some neato ringtones (at $2.99, effin ripoff): madonna- "hung up", wayne newton- "danke schoen" (for the parents), sean paul- "we be burnin" (just so i can say hey guys, i'm burnin up), and the bravery- "honest mistake".

two more finals to go!
math and CIS (computer information systems) tomorrow, and i shall be all done. i can't wait!
except that every time i look at my math notes, my mind starts to wander and i can't focus.
.. oh shucks.
on sunday, i got some christmas shopping done. and now i need to find gifts for my brother, mother and father. lol yes, my immediate family has no gifts from me, as of right now. any suggestions? i'm in dire need!
(oh yeah, my brother is coming home for christmas! take that singapore national service! suckaas)
and on wednesday, i shall be getting my hair cut and highlighted. i decided that i'll bring in a couple pictures of what i want (like the simpson sisters pictured below) and hope for the best. i can't decide what highlights i want, i'm going to leave the blond chunks in my hair though, i'm a little too fond of them to have them dyed over. we'll see if my stylist decides if i should go drastic or subtle. hehe.
so everyone, bid my current hair adieu!
disclaimer: i figured that a black and white photograph was apt for the occasion, since the hair is going to go bye-bye, but then it turns out that i look like i'm naked in the picture. HOWEVER, i assure you, i'm wearing a tank top (blue one, in fact) so please, don't go running to mommy that you saw a girl naked... because you didn't. REALLY.
