Is what I did yesterday. I don't NEED new clothes, but I couldn't help it. Got yet another vest, I have this fascination with them. A cute girly simple plain small flower dress. Some shorts, summer is around the corner, showing leg will be a must. A beautiful metal cuff along with some beaded bracelets. And a snug short white cardigan. Oh and a simple white girly top. What I wanted but did not get, some boots which were $100 off, but they didn't have my size, so pissed about that one.

Apperanly, I walk like a robot?
Hahahaha, I don't like when people I know talk about me, it weirds me out. Its like, why are you even talking about me? Point is, I always walk in a rush because 9 out of 10 times, I have somewhere to be so I walk with a purpose. Besides, how the fuck am I supposed to walk? Move my hips side to side? HA! Please.

SAD NEWS!
Jury Duty awaits me on April Fools...
no joke, sadly.

Better news, more useless(well not completely) things I want:

I have a thing for oxfords. They look amazing, and they are surprisingly comfortable.


Now these oxfords, LOVE. Wasn't so sure about the metallic thing, but it makes something not so feminine into completely feminine.


How cute is that skirt?


I just LOVE this bracelet.


This belt def. caught my eye.





I want this vintage dress, or something like it. Its covered, but still cute.

*twit*

hahahaha discovered this last wk before over a million people saw it, omg too fucken hilarious. i still don't understand the whole twitter phenomenon. but whatevs.

"how many luv?"

S: "I've got a huge headlining show on the main stage at the knitting factory on fri april 3rd. looks like its going to sell out. shall I save u some tix?"

I know I said I was boycotting all men, but its too fucken hard to say no to sexy ones. So I guess my boycott can wait, till after April 3rd. Besides, I had already made plans to go to that show with Marilu & possibly Daisy. So I get to start my spring break with this awesome gig, along w/ hopefully both my favorite girls, dressing cute, dancing & singing along to these talented guys.

boycotting:

men.

I am tired of making effort after effort & receiving nothing in return.

Speaking of stupid men, today is someone's birthday.
_____.
He turns 39. I know, I can't believe I was ever "dating" someone that old.
I mean, I'm always for men older than me,
but he is way too old for me. WAY.
I was actually kinda(very) grossed out when I found out.

"something quite special"

Oh I am just so fucken happy. I just went ahead & asked the sexy Diego himself something & he actually gave me a response :)
However, I don't know if I could post up the news,
so I'll keep it to myself in the meantime.
Hahaha suckers!!!
Just know that,
1. I am beyond happy.
2. He's sexy as fuck. But of course, you knew that already.

can't i just be 21 already?

Turning 21 in +70 days. But I need to be 21 for April 13th. Diego Garcia @the Hotel Cafe in Hollywood... & chances are I won't be able to go due to my age... & I am not about to go get a fake ID so close to my birthday. Im soooo sad now.



I mean, I've managed to sneek into private VIP only events in the past, AND I was younger. So it can't be impossible, right? right??? Maybe if I go ahead and just straight up ask Diego himself... that has worked in the past with other people. But they weren't the sexy lead singer of Elefant who's a well recognized known band by many. But hey, it can't hurt to try right? I'll just ask, politely.

"did we rock you thoroughly?"

^^What Paul asked about last night. My answer, YES.

Inverse did not make it to the next part of the contest.
Which is just a shame because the bands that made it were ok at best(ok fine, they sucked, in my eyes), nothing extraordinary, personally not for my liking. But we all know who should have made it all the way, those boys are pure talent & deserved that break. But what can you do. In the mean time, I got them at least one more fan, Marilu liked them.

We had fun once they played. During the time the other bands were up, I was texting, then Marilu was texting while I chatted up w/ Sal a bit. The great part, Inverse's performance. They are a band that you must catch live and experience the passion they put into their music. You'll have fun, and dance and dance. I know I did. Getting winked at by Sal & his guitar in my face was fun. They are all great. The singer sang to me at some point, that was cute too. It was about time I saw them again, afterall it had been 4 years.

Picture time!










& the end of the night...


Sweaty hugs from SEXY men, being literally picked up & placed off of the stage...
sometimes life is fun.
For all those nights I spend studying, the nights I go out totally make up for it.
catching them again in April.
I predict FUN times ahead. I want it to be fun. I'll make it fun.
oh haayyy.

horrible news

My sister, Nancy, who was 13 wks pregnant lost the baby. She's an emotional wreck, and I hate seeing her cry. My mom took the news pretty hard too. Turns out the baby had stopped growing at 10 1/2 wks, which means its been dead for like 2 wks. She now has to miscarry it naturally, or with meds, or will need to have the baby surgically removed. I missed class today due to that.

I know I say I hate kids & my nephews/nieces are a pain, but it is still sad to know that the little peanut will not be born. My sister in law is also pregnant, so it won't be easy to have one baby around when we know it should have been 2 new kiddos.

My best friends, Daisy & Walter have showed their support for my family and I. I love them, because they are trully sincere friends who know how hard my sister is taking this. They are the first people I told.

My sister in happier times, dancing w/ one of my brothers.
Excuse the blurry~ness.

fashion blogs

I've been looking through some fashion blogs because I am avoiding some reading for sociology. They are actually really fun to read. I am slowly moving away from sometimes girly yet still kind of a tomboy sometimes to really girly. I am actually starting to worry about what I wear and trying to make it look cute. Which can only mean 2 things: shopping more and taking longer to get ready. HA.

As I went along, I found a picture that had 2 of my favorite people/artists,
Z and Alex.


Speaking about musicians and fashion... I have no idea what I will wear on Wednesday. Though I was thinking about wearing my new Charlotte Ronson skirt with just a vneck shirt and maybe some boots. Though I want to use my oxfords though it is a rock show, so I know I'll be tired quick and yeah.

See the old me, would have worn jeans, a tee & my chucks, maybe shorts if I felt like showing some leg. But nooooo, now I really think this through.

cigarette.

I love that song, by Whitey.
Not actual cigs. I haven't smoked since... EDC 2008 I think. Yea, that was the last time I smoked. Not that I used to be a regular user. I have 2 unopened packs of Camels(which I got for free from a very attractive man) and an almost full pack of Marlboro reds. Before, when I was stressed as fuck, I used to kinda crave one. Not anymore.

I want this bag:


does anyone want to buy me a bag worth $245???
ANYONE?? common, I'll love you forever.
Sometimes, I wish I had a lot of money... but only when I see a really cute purse. Or shoes.

i miss my best friend

I don't know why, well I kinda have a hunch, but I don't get to see her anymore. We hardly even text. I have had longer more meaningful convos with strangers I meet at the bus stop, literally, then I have had with her prior to tonight. And the last time we hanged out just the two of us was probably during the rides to school for the winter session. WTF. I think I have the right to miss her. I don't miss people much unless they mean something to me. And all of a sudden its like I don't even have a real best friend since she's not here. Granted nothing major has happened in my life that I need her around, but a girl has to have her bestie in her life. Right? RIGHT??

My brother makes fun of me, saying I already lost her & that I should look for a new friend. But I don't think so, we just don't seem to be as close as before. "Attached at the hip" as my math professor would refer to us as. Now we are, well I don't know but not attached at the hip. I have lost all my best friends since I can remember & she's the one I've know the longest, she's like a sister to me. Next year our friendship turns 10. I don't want to lose the fucker.

2006.


There, my moment of melancholy.
I just had to get that out there, it had actually been bugging me for a while now.
But since we just told each other we weren't used to not having eachother around & that we miss eachother, idk I just felt like I needed to vent a bit.
I know too many people. I have many friends. I have a small group of good friends. But I only have 2 best friends. Daisy & Walter. Oh I miss him too, but we actually talk so its not bad.

the real role models...

Glamour Magazine has done some recreations of recognizable style icons. Normally, fashion and strong women do not necessarily go hand in hand. When one thinks of fashion magazines, they picture the stick thin young girls plastered all over those magazine covers. But this caught my attention because we get to see both strong and stylish females that have left a mark on the world, not only fashion.
The famous icons have been portrayed by some of today's young Hollywood crowd.

"You can do anything! That’s the message of the seven decades of female risk takers, rule breakers and style makers here. We celebrate them with the help of some very-2009 young talents."

Alexis Bledel as Rosie the Riveter.


Alicia Keys as First Lady Michelle Obama.


America Ferrera as Dolores Huerta.


There was more, the women of Woodstock, Madonna(though personally I am not a fan), Audrey Hepburn... but these three women stood out. Rosie the Riveter has become THEE image for feminism all around. Dolores Huerta overcame that "double bind" that women during that time faced and is personally the kind of Chicana that I look up to. She was fierce advocate for migrant farmers, Huerta cofounded, with César Chávez the United Farm Workers of America. Plus I had the pleasure to meet her and she is the nicest lady ever. And no list can be complete without Michelle Obama, who is becoming a symbol for strong women as we speak.

liar liar

"damn little tramp, its so weird for you to tell the truth hahaha kidding"

Ahh, a sexy man just sent me a txt saying "sexy" Who knew little messages could put a smirk on my face. Next week shall be great ;)

speaking of sexy men:

too bad he's a republican.
