Things that I found funny.

Steve saved lunch for me and later he made me dinner. 

My new Abercrombie & Fitch shirt which fits me perfectly.

A loving brother who always asks me about my day whenever I come home.

Freshly laundered clothes sitting on top of my bed.

It’s Friday.

Thinking of wearing my new dress.

Manicured nails.

A good hair day.

Received a really sweet compliment.

Realizing that I have such great friends.

I finally finished reading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows!

Wow.

I have to admit I didn’t expect it to end that way. Some of the things that happened, I kinda guessed it already but some of them took me by surprise… wow.

Did I like it?

LOVED IT!

I lost my iPod the other day. I think I may have put it down in the dressing room in one of the stores I went to but I can’t be sure. I only went to three different places and I must’ve put it down somewhere and just forgot about it. By the time I realized I didn’t have it with me, an hour had gone by and when I retraced my steps, it led me nowhere. I knew I wouldn’t find it anyways because it’s very unlikely that someone would find an iPod and return it. But still, I was hopeful.

So there you go, my iPod is gone and although I’ve had it for over a year, it was still worth a bit of money when I bought it and now all that money I spent has gone down the toilet. Although I am sure I have a copy of most of the songs I’ve collected, I am still sad about the fact that there are some songs I had ripped off someone else’s CDs and now I don’t have them anymore. I would have to either re-download or purchase it off iTunes.

Anyhoo, I was already pondering on the amunt of money I would need to save so I can buy a new iPod. But last night, Steve gave me a video iPod! YAY! It was so sweet of him. I was really touched. I had started putting songs in it but as of today I only have 200 plus songs and I will have to look for other songs.

I may have lost my iPod but I have a very thoughtful Steve.

  • Pay Day
  • Breakfast at Perkins
  • Paramount Wonderland
  • Swimming
  • A nice tan (or so everyone says… it stings though)
  • A squeeky clean bath tub (without me cleaning it)
  • Finding a super nice, dark pair of jeans that fit me perfectly
  • Being able to buy a cute top 5 mins before the store closed
  • Lining up to buy an expensive piece of clothing and then just when I’m about to pay, being told it was on sale for half the price!
  • Getting Love Generation for a ringtune (and it sounds awesome)
  • Spending time with the family and going to Little Italy for lunch

    And of course, lots and lots of time with Stevie!!

The other night while having dinner with the family:

Me: Ma, these cherries are so good!

Mum: Hay naku! Do you know how long it took me to pick the good ones?!

Me: Mmm… yummy! The darker ones, the ones that are almost black in color are so much sweeter than the red ones…

Dad: That’s how you tell the ripe ones… di mashado masarap yung red…

Me: Mmmm… talaga ha… we also had them at work the other day.. Steve got them… I finished the entire pack all by myself…hehe

So there we were, sitting and eating a bowl of cherries… after awhile:

Me: Ma, your teeth are turning black… and so are your lips! Katuwa!

Mum: Onga eh… nevermind, it will go away when I brush my teeth after…

after a brief pause…

Me: Shites! You mean my teeth and gums were black when I was eating them at work?! I kept smiling at people pa naman whenever they passed me… shiyet…

On MSN:

Paolo says: hey

Karen says: hey

Paolo says: Are u also waiting for Friday?

Karen says: definitely

Karen says: Fridays are the only reason I go to work on Mondays really

Karen says: LOL

Paolo says: I know.

Where art thou Friday?

“Happy Friday!”

Steve’s first words today when I saw him.

I couldn’t help but smile. I love Fridays. It means…

No work the following day
I get to sleep in
I can stay up late
I get to do whatever I want
No pesky co-workers
The weekend’s just beginning
I’ve survived another week of torture

I feel like doing a little dance. LOL.

I’m grateful for the warm temperatures even though we’ve been getting rain for the past couple of days. I would very much rather that it rain as long as it’s warm, than to have snow snow with the cold. It’s much easier to bring an umbrella instead of needing to wear several layers of clothing.

Today I was very pleased to find out that Yahoo has integrated their messenger into e-mail. What this means for me is that I get to chat with my Yahoo contacts just by signing into my e-mail even though I don’t have Yahoo messenger installed on my PC. This is beneficial to me since I only have MSN messenger at work and is limited to my MSN contacts. I know I can always just add my Yahoo contacts into my MSN contact list since it allows for cross chatting anyway but since I already have so many YM contacts, it’s tedious to have to re-add them all over again. I’m lazy I know.

Ever watch the show So You Think You Can Dance?

Last night while having dinner with Steve and Fey, we were watching the show. It really amazes me how gutsy these people are! I have to say there are those who are truly talented and really know how to move. And then there are those that are…uh…how shall I put it… plain horrible. I admire them for trying but maaannn… one guy was dressed in a very weird costume and basically stomped his feet through his audition. What were you thinking? One girl proudly said she had been training for 15 years and when she got on stage, everyone said she was horrendous. She didn’t know how to dance. At all.

I would understand if it were the first season when people didn’t know yet what to expect and were auditioning for the show but if you followed the previous season and you know damn well how difficult the competition is and who you are up against, wouldn’t you be more prepared? Wouldn’t you choreograph something that would compete with the top 20 finalists of the previous season? I would think so.

At least I can admire them for trying and going for what they want. One thing’s for sure, it was fun watching the whole thing.

This morning I checked my Multiply Site and was surprised to find out that the automatic importing feature actually works! The last time I logged in, I was trying to set it up in such a way that when I post in my blogger account, it would automatically import it to Multiply. I thought it didn’t work since I didn’t see the posts but it actually did! Now I’m even more motivated to maintain my Multiply Site since I know I can keep posting here and it will update my Multiply blog right away! Kewl.
