Switching Back to Blogger

Posted August 16, 2008

I swear I am not trying to give you guys a headache! I'm switching back to blogger because although Viviti is a nice site, it still needs a lot of work and blogger allows me to do a lot more things, like blog from my iphone. Which seems really nice especially since i'm so mobile now - able to take p…

Home Sweet Home

Posted August 16, 2008

The streets of Chicago are alive this afternoon with the screams of children. They laugh and giggle and scream every communication standing only three feet away from each other, “Who let the dogs out? Whoof, Whoof, Whoof?”  They chant the song over and over as loud as they can. Suddenly a plan…

Chi-Town

August 13, 2008

The move from Austin to Chicago was exhausting to say the least and I had the easiest job of all. I owe a huge thank you to my mom who helped me do everything from pack to set up my internet service (which to this day still isn’t working). It’s

Did I miss the curve?

Posted July 27, 2008

I recently came home from a nice long trip from the Cayman Islands. I wrote a very lovely post chronicling my time in the Caymans and when i went to publish my photos to the post I'd written a few days ago, the post was gone. Disappeared into thin air. So forgive me for not writing sooner about the …

3:30pm: Clock out from Work and begin to head home...

3:31pm: After nine and half hour shift I request from my managers to be given the abi…

The Beauty in Country Life

Posted July 10, 2008

My grandfather refuses to let go of the fact that he lives in the city and doesn't need to struggle for food or live without air conditioning. My grandfather is a man of his word, a good ole country boy with a lot of stubborn pride and conservative moral values and I love him for everything that he …

21 sips of life

Posted July 8, 2008

I am sitting in bed right now with a massive headache cursing myself for having too much fun on my 21st birthday last night.

The party started at my apartment and never left. We spent the night drinking alcohol and playing Rock Band on the Wii. I finally went to bed somewhere around 3:30am and recei…

The Children of the 90's.

Posted June 30, 2008

We’re children of the 90’s. We’re the troubled, therapy inhabiting, and anti-chain-smoking generation. We’ve been smothered by our parents all our lives with words like love, dream, and believe. We’re the generation that’s fought obesity and lost, idolized celebrities like Paris Hilton, Britney Spea…

Scrapbooks, Hookah and Uchi...

Posted June 27, 2008

Jenn and I saw each other for the first time in about a month two days ago. She brought me back some clothes she had borrowed and I gave her back some Dior sunglasses she'd left at my place (I figure she'd probably want those back). As we exchanged items and parted ways for probably the last time...…

Almost Threw a Three-Year-Old Style Tantrum Today

Posted June 25, 2008

I enjoy my job 70% of the time. But when it's time for me to "Welcome" or "Greet" I want to shoot myself in the head.

You see when I decided to go work for Apple as a Concierge, I knew my job wouldn't be stimulating but I knew it would be better than interning somewhere and wearing suits and panty h…

Birthday Planning

Posted June 23, 2008

I love birthdays. I love them so much that this year I decided to go all out for my 21st. (I mean, it's all down hill from here, right?) hehe.

So today when I woke up I thought to myself, a few people over at my place for martinis or drinks and then downtown from there, no big deal, right? Ah, then …

Good Food, Good Company and Goodbye's

Posted June 22, 2008

It's self appraisal time at Apple which means as an employee I had to go into work early and write a self appraisal about myself. Sounds easy, right? Not so much when the self appraisal is in paragraph form and when it's your day off from work. :(

So despite it being my day off from work I had to be…

Finding and Losing Friends

Posted June 19, 2008

I sometimes think I have a hard time keeping friends. I tend to be really good friends with a certain person for an extended period of time and then it all just suddenly ends. Either I just stop talking to them or I get bored with them or they move away.

My best friend Jenn and I recently went throu…

No Air Conditioning Makes for Bad News Bears

Posted June 18, 2008

I love Texas but not because it's a beautiful state or because it's home to the best Mexican food ever. I love Texas becauset it's home. Texas is where I grew up. You'd think after 20 years and 11 months of living here I'd be used to the heat, well I'm not.

Texas summers are the smelly pits! Serious…

Free Makeup Tutorials and Tips on Buying Expensive Makeup for Less

Posted June 17, 2008

I just realized as much as I ranted and raved about makeup I didn't inform any of you of my favorite place to buy Mac Cosmetics cheaper or where is a free place to get makeup tutorials.

Well, the second may be a no brainer, but I recently discovered that YouTube hosts a ton of free makeup tutorial v…

The Mac Cosmetics Store

Posted June 17, 2008

i have a new fetish and it's a dangerously expensive fetish. I'm addicted to Mac Cosmetics. Now most of you know I work at Apple and you're probably thinking, Apple, also known as Mac, makes makeup? Uh, no. I'm talking about the most wonderful makeup known to woman.

It's no wonder the best computer …
