It's been quite some time since I've stopped by to say hello and I figured it was an appropriate time, as i'm suffering from jet-lag and have run out of episodes of "Sex and the City"! However, I have been taking it easy at home and have really enjoyed getting to know myself, make some new friends, and adjust to a less-hectic life over the fall. And of course that meant not always being by my computer (not to mention, a few hardcore Xangers out there)... so sue me! Just Kidding. Although, it's truly been time well-spent.

Work Starbucks and Hollister has been officially established as my two very loyal bestfriends. I've been seeing these bestfriends every single mother fucking day, full-time, fucking NON-STOP. 13 hours a day, kids. I am restless from this astrocity we call LABOR. I'm enjoying it nonetheless.

San Jose I'm flying to San Jose in 2 weeks for New Years. I'm staying with Bao and James for the weekend. James purchased my ticket last night, so this is official! My first time flying... how incredible! And sometime during the weekend, they are driving me down to San Francisco, the pinnicle of the whole trip!

New York I also purchased a ticket to NEW YORK! I'm leaving on January 23 - 29! One whole damn week... isn't that awesome? I paid 250 for it. Pretty good deal huh? And get this, I'm staying in a ten room mansion. Can you believe it? My traveling buddy's boss' MOM owns the place and she is inviting us to stay with her for the week. So sweet... our trip is going to be absolutely MEMORABLE. Wish me luck!

Relationship Status Relationship Status I am currently single. I dated Devin on and off. Biggest mistake of my life. Hope he reads that.

Absent Sex Life The last time I had sex was a few months ago. Depressing, I know. I was about to have sex with this 32 year old French native yesterday, but I was running late. Ugh.

School I'm starting school on the 31 of January. I'm going to start working on my AA for Nursing. My goal is to be a Nurse Practitioner (which is the Master's Program). I can do it! I know I can.

Friends Friends I've been spending most of my time with Ngoc, David, and Thuy lately. They've become really close to me. People that I run to when I feel absent. People that will always be there no matter what. So much for my so called "bestfriends". I miss Julie... but something is keeping us apart. Carolyn... I don't know what to say. Have fun with your bestfriend Devin. I know you're never coming back. Keep it that way. You seem happier anyway.

Christmas I am so freakin stoked. I'm getting a laptop computer for Christmas! My brother is spoiling me to PIECES! But I deserve it, seeing that I spent close to 750 dollars on my family. I bought my sister a $215 Dooney and Bourke bag as well as a $100 jacket from Hollister. I bought my brother a $200 stereo. I bought my mom a $180 Back Massager and my dad a pair of shoes as well as an infinite number of warm clothes. That is WHY I deserve a laptop. Yay! And for the Christmas season... I hope to spend it with "Mark". The end.

I struggle to neither fathom nor implore enough how Caterpillars scare the living daylights out of me. Yes, I am afraid of many things, for instance, ventriloquist's dummies! Now what in God’s name would create such a vile, torturous, wooden piece of creature? Is it the sole purpose of enriching the lives of retirement home patients? Perhaps last-minute entertainment for cheap-ass birthday bashes because the Jumping House was far too expensive? I kid you not, that ventriloquist dummy on Goosebumps had me wishing I were dead before it made its way through my bedroom door. Also, I mustn’t forget my fear of female genitalia, medical term "Eurotophobia". More reason to being a homosexual? Yes, indeed! Those vagina-things you females proudly carry and flaunt around must be tamed of it’s aggressiveness, danger, and whereabouts. I’m just serving a purposeful caution is all! I mean, who knows what Vagina’s can do to you! Once you dive into one of those Vaginas, you’d be missing for days. Your face will appear on the milk cartons, I swear to you.

Ventriloquist's dummies, Vaginas? Such a mild, better yet worthless approach to what I define as a Phobia. Now Caterpillars, that is a Phobia! Why? Because it just is! For those that have failed to subscribe to my Xanga, I’d like for you to know that this is a subsequent entry to the previous one I wrote way back when. Caterpillars! Why must these vomit-colored, wiggly things exist? What is their purpose? Is this a mean, cruel joke God is playing on me? Because apparently, I’m not laughing. And what is with this whole metamorphosis bullshit they are trying to pull? Turning into a butterfly is not and will not be a compensation for their already established ugliness. Why? Because butterflies are ugly as well! So stop having sex. Reproducing would only make me hate you little bitches even more. When I’m flipping channels, I make an effort to avoid the Discovery and Travel channel. Even the sight of a caterpillar can drive me off the wall. My pulse literally halts for a split second, as I try to recollect myself from such damage. One time, I bit into an Apricot and found a helpless, naked caterpillar curled up in a ball nested in between the outlines of the seed. Mortified beyond my wits, I threw the Apricot across the living room. I honestly couldn’t stop shaking! Haha.

God, I live a crazy life. Are you afraid of anything?
