Super slack status!

I know I’ve been slacking on this blog, but I just really don’t know what to do with it. My categories are all messed up and I’m not really sure how to fix it. Not only that but a theme I had back in ’09 messed up the tags so some entries from then don’t have any. Darn my need to be organized and consistent.

School has started. I’m excited for my Humanities class (even if the book is freakin $105) but a little worried. At least I have the next two weeks to focus on it before I have to go back to the Uni. Which screwed up our classes and some othe stuff. After that shit ass class though I’m glad we’re taking a break. So frustrating.

Besides that not much has been going on. I’m itching to go on some big huge shopping spree but even with money in my account I’m still hesitant to go shopping like I use to. I spent about 10 minutes trying to justify buying a book for $12. Which original price was like $16. I skipped on a MAC lipstick I really wanted (and it was the last one they had). And it’s just weird. Life without credit cards really changes you. And I mean I’m glad I’m more conscious of the things I buy but sometimes I just wanna go on a spree you know?

And because a blog is boring without pictures…

Aches && Anxiety.

I had a pretty good day today.

We checked out the new Walgreens and it’s huuuuge. It also has the new Walgreens layout which is amazing when it came to the beauty section. Everything was so much easier to find! They had a soft opening but man, I’m impressed! I just wish they had more Wet N’ Wild products. Maybe when they have their grand opening they will. Either way, I found the Wet N’ Wild nail polishes I’ve been trying to track down for a week now. They had every color there (which was a bit hard to resist), I ended up only getting the 3 I really wanted. I’ll be back next week to see if the holiday sets will be in. Husband and I also grabbed some boxed movie candy, 3 for $3, why not. I got my Tootsie Pop drops and had him pick some out since that’s all I really wanted. Wish they made Cherryheads in the big boxes!

After that husband and I headed to get some lunch. He got Chipotle (of course) and I got Panera Bread. Then we walked over to GameStop and I reserved Mario 3D for him (to get the raccoon Mario key chain of course!) then over to B&N. I didn’t get anything. Books are so over priced everywhere else compared to Amazon. We’re in a recession! Wait, are we still in a recession? Either way…

Black Friday!

Husband and I were awake and on our way to Fry’s at 3:30AM yesterday morning (after only having 3 hrs of sleep and OMG it was freezing) and we stood in line for about half an hour. In the freezing cold. It was horrible! I get cold really fast, so I was pretty much freezing. We finally get in and they were filtering people in, which was a good idea. Cause by the time we got in, there wasn’t a huge swarm of people. We grabbed the external hard drive husband wanted and I browsed around and found one I liked on sale and grabbed one for me too then we checked out. Wish we coulda looked around more, but we didn’t want to get caught in long lines. We were in and out in less than 20 minutes. OMG. Liberating. Haha!

Sock Monkey and high school!

I was debating on posting this today or tomorrow since tomorrow is my audition. But maybe I’ll just dedicate a whole blog post to that day alone.

So, what happened this week? Not much… I realized I haven’t been taking as many pictures as I use to… but then again, nothing worth taking pictures of has happened.

And I still need to post about my birthday, don’t I? Eep.

So class on Monday was the usual… we were on “team gabe” but he turned it into “team hazel” cause I kept getting all the answers right. “you’re getting everything right and you don’t talk!” I do too talk. Just, not that much!

I finally got around to cleaning the area in front of my TV (OMG I can see the FLOOR there now… and my Wii! Oh how long it’s been, I thought I had lost you forever Wii!) and I came across this. No journal of mine has ever been more private than this one. It was my high school notebook that I brought around with me everywhere. I was reading though it and it had days I was missing in my blogs, days I wondered what happened. Days I didn’t want to read about. Days of abuse, of confusion, of wanting to end it all. Conversations with people, with someone I miss. A conversation that made me miss that person even more and realizing he’s never coming back. That friendship, that bond, is gone. It’s depressing, but it’s also life.

And pages with Martin’s familiar hand writing. The majority of the time when I’d be writing in this back in high school, in class, I would be sitting in front of Martin in Journalism with my head phones on and he’d bug me. It’s like, as soon as I pulled out the journal, he’d start bugging me. Never failed! Which is funny because now that I’m married to him, every time I pull out a journal or a book, he does the same thing lol!

I remember him underlining the words but I don’t remember writing this, or why I wrote this. It’s just funny to see us as we were when we just met, when we were just friends and to look at us now. He was always the one I joked around with about killing myself. We were both those students who didn’t really care about anything. I think that’s why we ended up being friends. But he definitely made my days more tolerable at school…. even if he was trying to stab me with my own pens… or flinging staples into my soup… or stapling my orange… wait was that my orange? Or letting me draw rainbows and flowers on his arm and “hazel is so much cooler than me” and wear it around school lol.

Oh I also got a wicked gash on my index finger (on the bendy part too!) from moving books around. Who knew books could be lethal?!

I finally got to go to Target… ALONE. I haven’t gone anywhere alone since Martin came home. So yes, that was indeed refreshing. Oh how I missed that freedom! I went to Bed Bath and Beyond and Target.

I got this little guy from Bed Bath & Beyond! I love Sock Monkey! I have slippers of him that I’ve had for years. They’re my favorite slippers, ever! Now I have him in plushie! Yay!

Also finally got my hands on this!! Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me is one of my all time favorite movies! I hated Goldmember though. My Target finally got fixed up, they added the grocery which is HUGE but they didn’t have ELF (Eyes Lips Face) stuff there yet. Booo.

My damage. I got my birthday Sephora shipment too! So excited! I finally replaced my Lash Blast, I didn’t get what the big deal about this mascara was until yesterday. Got the new Revlon lipstick everyone’s been raving about, but the color I got Soft Nude doesn’t show up great on my skin tone. It’s hard for me to find a lipstick that works good with me. Got a new foundation, I can never tell if I matched myself right… annnnd… I finally got my Cake Beauty Lip Butter in Lemon Chiffon!!

I am the most excited about this!! I am a sucker for anything Lemon Chiffon. Or anything chiffon to be honest! I’ve been itching to pull out my culinary school notebook and make an almond chiffon cake… but in my house, that’s unlikely! Even though I went to culinary school, my dad still thinks my baking will burn the house down. No faith!

Anyway, this lip butter smells exactly like Lemon Chiffon. I may have to get a back up… or 5! Hehe :).

Found these at Target… they’re…. weird. Good, but weird. I also picked up some new Skittles that I didn’t take a picture of cause they’re in my car (oops). Those were… weird too. Would it be weird to do food reviews here? Hm, it’s my blog, I can what I want!

When I had planned on writing this blog (yesterday) I was going to say I started reading this book today. Well, now that I wrote it today instead of yesterday… I finished this book today.

It was a really really cute read. The ending made me feel both relieved but… what the hell at the same time. The story changed obviously but it wasn’t the ending I was expecting. And it’s crazy to think of the ending and the entire book all together. It was well written. And it kinda had that idea that Martin told me to write about but there’s no way I could consturct a book like that, especially if it had to do with my life because I wouldn’t know the outcome. I finished this book wanting to know more, what else happened? I love when a book does that but at the same time… it’s frustrating lol.

Review on this soon! I need to sort my feelings and thoughts towards it first lol.’

It feels like one of those days I’d be sleeping in my stuffy Journalism class. I guess listening to Linkin Park kinda helped that feeling :). Never thought I’d be married to Martin. Crazy. I’d always tell him “I’ll feel sorry for your future wife” when he’d tell me the most off the wall things… and you know… I do feel sorry for his wife LOL!

CONVO OF THE WEEK:
Me: I would totally try to drive through SF again to see Wicked. Even if I crashed, it would be totally worth it. See now THAT’S PASSION!
JD: Determination. WATCH WICKED OR DIE TRYING!
Me: YES. THAT is going on my profile!

Damn when was the last time I had a “convo of the…”?

This last hectic week…

I really wish I blogged more often, but by the time I come home from school it’s already passed midnight and all I want to do is sleep!

Let’s see how far back I can remember…

So last week, we had to print out chapter’s since University of Phoenix doesn’t have hard copy text books, a lot of our “chapter reading” is online and needs to be printed out (unless you’re okay with reading it as a PDF file, I personally don’t really care). The good thing is that they allow you to print out as many pages as you need to at the campus, for free! I go to two colleges, so we had to find time between lunch and before class to run to UoP and print out our chapter reading. The campus is small, but it’s nice. And comfy.

I spotted these at Target!! They put out all the Easter candy and decor! I love Easter. It has the best candy! Hehe! These are my favorite Easter chocolates! They only come out during Easter too, which sucks! I went crazy. But husband didn’t let me buy any. He’s getting a little strict with me not eating candy lately…. hmph.

Most days consist of this, entire afternoons in Panera Bread before kickboxing class doing homework. Husband was turning in our learning team homework while I finished my lunch. Aww, isn’t he just the sweetest? And I know, could my stuff be any more girly? Pink laptop, MAC Hello Kitty carrying bag… lol.

I was craving granola! And I need to add more yogurt and fruit into my diet. I don’t eat enough. I love Panera Bread’s granola. It’s so so… so delicious!! I just hate how fast the yogurt warms up and it get’s all watery… :(.

Speaking of, I was looking for healthy snacks. I know I need to eat a little more healthier and I tend to skip breakfast a lot, so I was looking for some nuts and trail mix snack packs to snack on in my room. I’m lazy and I hate making food, plus, snacking on nuts is good for you. So I found these!

The Cocoa Roast Almonds are okay… they don’t taste much like dark chocolate (lol, I don’t know what I was expecting but it’s just funny to think about… was I expecting dark chocolate covered almonds?! Haha) but it is better than eating plain almonds. Plus they’re 100 calorie packs!

The Tropical Blend trail mix is pretty good. It comes with banana’s, mangoes and pineapples. The mangoes were making my stomach hurt after awhile, but everything else was really good. Weird, considering I’m Filipino and dried mango is one of my favorites snacks… unless they’re “dried” differently?
