I bought a silver ring from banana republic that had cubic zirc's all around it...and one of the friggin stones fell out. BOOO stupid cheap stuff...now i need a new ring. Sucks. I saw a nice white gold one w/ pink sapphires. Aw so cute.

Girly girl dinner was last night at Eileen's. Lotsa food...crab cakes, soup, lasagna, salad, cakes, fruit...yum. The brie from Pusateri's was really good too. yay

Jason got me a FOM pink pillow. Yay!

Resolution

Isn't it funny how it's the people we love the most that can be the ones that do the most damage to us? I suppose it's the whole being-closest-to-our-heart-thing.....shorter distance for them to rip it straight out of our chest.

Merri Kurisumasu!

Merry Christmas to all! Ok it's a bit late but I've been pretty bad at updating lately. Just my life has been pretty uneventful. These holidays have been pretty anti-climatic. Christmas has come and gone.

Christmas-Eve-day I went to dim sum w/ Eileen's parents and Jaipo. My dad showed up a bit later with Sarah. 2 dollar dishes, but service was just so-so.

I spend Christmas Eve at Shopper's Drug Mart to pick up some Nyquil, and then begging to be let into Blockbuster's to pick up a movie (they were closing). I decided to rent the uplifting "We Don't Live Here Anymore". OK not uplifting, and SO not a feel-good kind of movie. It's another one of those movies that makes you NOT want to get married lol. Well, I actually thought the movie was really interesting and felt very realistic. Anyway, probably not a good holiday movie to see. Where's "Love Actually" when you need it?

Christmas day I went to see my grandma and the rest of my dad's family. It's tradition where we eat a big turkey late-lunch. Ate lotsa dessert. So funny cuz my 12 year old cousin loves Ty Pennington and Bill Rancic (SO old for her!). Well it made me think of me at 12....funny how things are....what was I thinking and going through at that age...?

Boxing day was spent at Eaton's Centre with Karen and Eileen. We're hardcore! Started around 11 and didn't leave downtown till about 5pm. We also went to Queen st. I bought stuff I really can't afford to keep. Ah gotta do some returns this week. Oh well..it was lotsa fun though. Someone tried to steal a chair fr/ our table in the food court. I didn't let them get away with that, "Like HELLO that chair was at OUR table!!!!!" People are vicious around food and sales-priced items!

K: "Meg Ryan is, like, perky, but she [Amanda Walsh] just seems slow."

I rented "Dawn of the Dead" and "Waking Life'. Dawn of the Dead - way more gory than I thought it would be. Hmm it was OK. Waking Life was interesting bu not the kind of movie you should see if you're sleepy. i.e. it's a "thinking" movie.

Today was spent shopping at Markville. I got my 3/4 length jacket but I think I have to either get a smaller size or maybe just a petite-version.  If only I were a few inches taller...

I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.
But if you'll wait around awhile, I'll make you fall for me,
I promise you, I promise you I will.

I really need to get out of this house.

Clubbin

So went to see Armand van Helden on Fri night at the Docks. Yay! Love that stuff. It was 20 bucks but it was well worth it. Sampled caffeinated water....just tastes like water...but makes you feel like WHEEEEEE! I think Eileen and I were the only ones not "on" something. Oh well..entertaining and lotsa cardio. My calf muscles were killing me on Sat.

Sat went out with Jess and Rene's wedding party (minus Karen) to Leoni's, Yuk Yuk's then Montana's. Yuk Yuk's was pretty good. I like the dark humour.

Sun went to see Lemony Snickett's Series of Unfortunate Events. It was pretty good..I like the Tim-Burton-like feel of it.

NOW I'm tired. Need to catch up w/ sleep.

Rogers rocks!

Sony!

So Sony has this thing called LocationFree tv. It's awesome. It comes w/ a wireless hub, where you connect all your devices to (like cable, dvd player etc..) then you can take the TV anywhere and video gets streamed wirelessly. The coolest thing is that you can take the TV anywhere that has a wireless connection, and you can view video streamed over the internet! Super cool...ahh if only I had $2500 :)

Vroom Vroom

Oh lookie, my cars are ranked number one in their respective categories!

Today we got to make gingerbread houses at work. More fun than I thought! My team came up with the idea of using sesame seed snaps and piling them on like tiles to make a thatched roof. Looked so cool. If only we had drafted blueprints like some other groups...we woulda been the best.

Worker Bees

And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe
Maybe this year will be better than the last
I can't remember all the times I tried to tell my myself
To hold on to these moments as they pass

Meeting from 9-4:30 today. Surpisingly it didn't seem that long. I really found all the marketing planning and activities really fascinating...maybe it's cuz of my Marketing 101 course and WOW! it's all RELEVANT! Pretty neato...education in action! Waiting for things to materialize..you know, like on paper?

So wrote my Marketing 101 exam...yay, that's outta the way! Goal is to start studying for GMATs in January and write them at end of March. Hope that fits into the plan!

10 days till f'in Christmas. Oh how much shopping have I done? NOTHING!!!

McD's today was good for lunch, but 1/2 after I got hit by sleepiness. So restless. V.bad.

Vaughan Estates

Last night was Cybermation Christmas Party at Vaughan Estate. Lotsa people, and good mix. Everyone looked so good all dressed up! More young people this year I think than last. The only problem was that there wasn't really any seating so we were standing around for like 4-5 hours. Oh poor feet in my heels.  So I went to get my hair done in curls, and I waited there for an hour and a half before she even started to do my hair. Being the good businesswoman that she is, my stylist only charged me 25 bucks. Yay me.  So Jess was my date. Lotsa fun! Too much red wine. Poor me. Good thing for smart ride! Oh drama arising, but quickly resolved. People love the L couple!!

Decisions, decisions...

So at a crossroads. Hmm what to do. I think this choice could determine a lot of my future. Ah soul searchin!

STUPID iTunes!

so so dumb...iTunes Canada doesn't carry the same content as iTunes America! I did a search on "Garden State" soundtrack (which was the #1 seller on Amazon.ca for awhile...) and it's not even available on iTunes Canada! Oh so disappointed. Very very bad.
