The [IM]Possible Dream.

by zel

There was an event a week or two ago at Tapioca Express (which a friend of mine owns). My super artistic friend Dyno was invited to paint a mural on the wall along with some other artists so of course, I stopped by to show some support!

The unfinished mural on the wall! I wish I had stayed to snap a picture of the finished project, it’s really awesome. Maybe next time I stop by Tap, I’ll snap a picture.

One of my bestest friends who works there, Joey!

My friend who owns the place, he totally doesn’t know I took this picture. Well, I guess now he does. Sorry about that Ray… well no, not really lol :).

One of my childhood best friends! We’ve grown apart in the last 10 or so years, but it’s always a pleasure to see her! We went on a quick Target run and it was nice hanging out again. You can’t see it, but we’re both sporting a Dyno shirt. I actually bought another one while I was there.

And why the hell is my hair blonde?! It’s red now! Ugh, damn you lighting!

One of the coolest things is all the weird things my friends come up with for new drinks and of course, getting to taste it all. Joey made a Chips Ahoy smoothie to be honest, it was good.

It was really really nice seeing my friends again, it’s been a really long time and I’ve been so busy with school and dealing with the married life that I barely get time to see or talk to my friends any more…

Hubby and I had to leave early because he was going to catch the Mosley and Mayweather fight at his friends house with his boys.

I ended up going, even though I had a grudge against the guy who’s house it was at… I decided to let it go. It’s been a few years since we had that fight and it was nice to see Adam again and not hate him. He’s a cool guy, just really hard to deal with sometimes (I mean that in a good way, if that makes sense)! And again, it was really really nice seeing the guys again. It’s been years since I’ve seen them… I guess that’s on me, I’ve been avoiding them. But it reminded me how much I miss them, even if they don’t really care for me being around. They’re all hilarious! And I missed long tight hugs from Mondo and the dumb things Ian says. And talking to Angela about Twilight! The downside to hanging out with the crew? They never go home. Seriously. Hang outs with them don’t end til 8AM, I’m being literal. These people don’t sleep! Which is great cause I don’t either, except I can’t be home that late lol.

Oh, the fight itself? Was intense. I see why people like boxing so much lol. I wish I had taken pictures of them playing beer pong and hanging out. Wasn’t really thinking about it, I guess lol.

happy things

Domain and layout troubles…

by zel

I finally got around to attempting to make my domain layout/banner today and I hated it! I hate when I make something & I hate it. It discourages me and I most likely give up. I know, not the best way to go about things, right? Then again I cant just expect to make something amazing if I havent even attempted to make a layout or banner for the last four years. I think I just expect too much out of myself.

::sigh:: back to the drawing board….

I’ve been obsessed with “I’ll Forgive You” by Bobby Valentino && “Jai Ho!” by Pussycat Dolls (thanks to my bestie!). Seriously, only things I listen to. Oh and “Last Chance” by Ginuwine annnnd I found my favorite version of Mambo, Italiano. So that was pretty exciting. Dont you just hate when you love hard to find songs? It gets a bit frustrating at times.

I havent had much to blog about… life isnt to exciting these days…

I finally paid off my school fee’s the other day. That I owed from last semester. I know. Walking away saying “I’m not paying” probably isnt the best way to go LOL. So I went and paid that off & I signed up for summer school classes. I’m listed for the one I wanted and I’m wish listed on the other one I want… I know I should take some GE, but I’m too scared to, to be honest! I’m horrible when it comes to college. But I’m determined to make things right (dont I say that every semester? Hopefully I mean it this time…) even if it means asking Bernard for help/studying in his living room. I’m sure he wont mind!

Oh! The other day I gave in and I GOT WICKED TICKETS!!!!!!!!! I got the day, time and price I wanted! So I’m pretty excited about that!!

Downside of the week/end? A second credit card got its limit lowered. I was starting to think I did something wrong til Sammie sent me an article about how 1 in 6 american’s are dealing with this problem (but it happened to me twice, wtf?!). So I’m not too worried about it. It just sucks they switched my limit in the middle of my billing cycle, so its “over”. Even though I didnt receive this letter they speak of. Its funny how they can email you offers and coupons but they snail mail you the important shit like oh, I dont know… lowering your credit limit?! Gee, thanks.

Yesterday I gave in and ended up buying the Gossip Girl season finale. I told myself I was gonna watch Season 1 and watch Season 2 when it comes out and wait to watch the finale then, but everyone was talking about it so I just gave in and watched it. And I really liked it! Blair and Chuck are the hottest couple ever!

Screw Edward Cullen, I need me a Chuck Bass!!!

Me and the bestie were talking last night. And I was saying “I like when a guy does you wrong then runs back saying how much they need you and how sorry they are, then does it again and creates this endless heartbreaking cycle” and she was like “oh, you mean a-holes?” and I was like “YES! I LOVE THAT!” hahahhaa. Its true, guys are attracted to beezy’s and girls are attracted to a-holes! Maybe that’s why I was so stuck on CJ (sorry CJ, but you know its true. You were a total a-hole but its okay I still *heart* you LOL). Maybe the reason for me is different than everyone else. I dont take a lot of things seriously, and I dont know, I just love when they run back and admit how wrong they were and how they realize how important you are to them. Just the messed up-ness of it all. Is hot haha. Plus nothings better than making up after breaking up. Right?! Sometimes I think I should still be going around making mistakes instead of being with one person for so long. But at the same time, I think I’ve done enough damage to my name lol. Besides, I would really miss Martin. Which kinda makes me gag to actually say that. I know, I know. We’ve been together for five years and I’m still super anti-relationship-ish. Crazy, I know.

Totally off subject, but I’ve been super addicted to ELF lately. Like, as soon as I got hooked on their Studio Brushes, I’ve been making orders from them like crazy! But then I always get those 50% off codes and stuff, so that might be why. They released a new collection, I forgot what its called… Sugar Kiss or something? I wish they’d add more things to their Studio Collection! I hope they do! I finally found the lipstick color I’ve been searching high and low for at MAC (it isnt the exact one since the one I had wasnt MAC, but it matches from what I remember) and I got a Paint Pot, just to see what its all about. I didnt get the one that I assumed I’d get, but its okay.

That’s about all thats been goin on!

San Jose with Sammie & Martin =].

by zel

Yesterday was Sammie’s only free day so we drove out to South City to go pick her up and she had this huge pink Juicy Couture bag with her. She mentioned she was going to mail my gift some time last week but judging by how heavy it was, that woulda been a shit load of shipping!! Haha. So we headed out to Palo Alto to take her to Sprinkles. Made a quick stop to Sony Style and Sephora before heading to Sprinkles. I ended up getting Cinnamon Sugar, Red Velvet, Banana and Dark Chocolate Banana. We ate there, I had the Dark Chocolate Banana and babe had the Banana. OMG, I think I’ve found a new favorite! It was delicious. The frosting and banana went SO well together…. okay I think I’ll save that for my food blog LOL.

Anyway, after that we headed to Valley Fair. Went to Bare Escentuals first and I got those eye make up remover q-tips ($5! I’ve been missing out!) finally!! I found them!! Thanks Sammie! Haha. And I also finally got my brush for my crease. Yay! We also got a free sample of Hydrating Mineral Veil. I’m excited to try it since my skin is always so dry. After that, we headed to the food court to get something to eat. Then to Nordstroms, then to Lush (and she gave me half of her Honey I Shrunk the Kids soap! Aww, how sweet!) then to MAC (didnt get anything, booo) and a few other stores… then to Sephora (didnt get anything there either… booo!) after Valley Fair I brought her to Pinkberry. Tried to find somewhere to have dinner and decided on Quickly’s back in Daly City.

So we headed out to Daly City and walked over to Chase then to Avon (which was closed, darn) and stopped by this little Asian store and got some gummy choco’s and some dried octopus legs, yum! Quicklys was pretty good, they had a large selection and their bento boxes were pretty good. And they had Udon! Haha. After that we dropped Sammie off and headed home. Me & Martin stayed up wayyy too late the night before so we were both really tired by the middle of the day LOL. Like, I was getting super sleepy. And it was hot, so I guess that didnt help either!

I got home and made a video of me opening my gift since Sammie wanted me to and OMGGGG. OMG! OMG OMG! Haha. She gave me so much stuff!!! I’ll take pictures of everything and post it later, but OMG! I think my favorite part of it all was the note on the Serendipity napkin (the only free part haha, sorry chick!). It was sweet! But I did LOVE everything she gave me! OMG haha. My battery died before I got to the last part of the gift and of course, you cant remake opening a gift video! Haha. So its okay! I’ll just post the last part in pictures. But aww, I feel so spoiled! Thanks Sammie!!!

I went to bed early last night cause my allergies were kicking my ass. I woke up feeling like shit still, ugh. My throat hurts, I’m all sniffly and its HOT!!! Having massive allergies with flu like symptoms and it being hot is never a good thing. Then again, I always get sick in the summer.

Today I plan to clean my room and fix up my web page, this project is so damn discouraging.

I need to figure out school stuff too, and I’m so scared I’m making the wrong choice all the time, dont you hate when that happens? *siiiigh*.
