.:: y'om say'n? word. ::.

a friend and former coworker wore this t-shirt on one casual friday, i recall it was orange, and the back of the shirt had the phrase "y'om say'n?" on it. i asked him, "what's that?" his response: "y'om say'n?" and from that day on, everytime he wore that shirt, he'd see me and say "y'om say'n?" and i'd respond with "word."

okay, it's official, i'm sick. :( booooo... i never get sick!! really, once, twice a year tops. last year, it was new year's eve. how awful is that? and then that awful coughing thing that i couldn't shake which had me up for 4 days at a time with no sleep cuz i couldn't stop coughing. talk about nightmare. the worst part? i haven't been at my job long enough to accrue any sick days, so i'd have to take the day off unpaid. grr. i'm slowly losing the ability to breathe thru my nose.

on another note, w burned me all american rejects, and i admit i really like it. :) it reminds me of 80's new wave!! the lyrics are really teeny-bopper broken heart stuff, but the tunes are really catchy. i find myself singing really loud in the car. heee...

went on another great hike on saturday. this time in half moon bay. since we didn't have the digicam, no pictures to share, but here's info on the hike if you're interested. :) w is on this thing where he wants to go hiking every weekend, weather permitting. it'll keep us both in shape. we dragged our friends l and d with us this time. we spent a lot of time with them this weekend. they are the friends that just got engaged, so on friday night we all went to yancy's on irving and 10th, where we drank ourselves silly. then went to tart to tart for some dessert. thought of e_mc while parusing the sweets. on sunday l and d had a superbowl "party" where i ate so much my stomach hurt. that's my weekend in a nutshell. how was your's?

i hate that feeling after you get off a treadmill...it's so disorienting, so dizzying. i'm always afraid i'm going to just fall or trip on something, so i try to hold on to something as quick as possible! hahaha, i wonder what the other people at the gym are thinking as i stumble off the treadmill and grab the window sill for dear life!

word of advice for all you sony cybershot owners: do not drop your cybershots, they are not as tough as they look! ;) w and i went hiking saturday at mcnee ranch in montara (just south of pacifica) and in passing of the cybershot from one hand to another (much like a baton in a relay race), the cybershot decided it wanted to kiss the dirt. so far the only thing we can find wrong with it is the lack of zooming action. and an annoying beeping sound when first turned on. but other than that, picture taking seems intact. luckily w bought the extended warranty from best buy. *phew* anyways, the hike was GREAT! if there are any avid hikers out there, w discovered a very handy-dandy website with tons of places to hike, and lots of info, including pictures! so check it out if you're in the mood for an adventure. our pictures from mcnee are to your right. the last one is of the sunset on the beach when we got back to the car. can you believe it's january?!

do they still have abc afterschool specials? i totally remember watching those movies in like 6th or 7th grade. what do kids watch now? do kids even watch tv after school? i imagine they're playing video games or surfing the web or something. speaking of video games, my thumb hurts from playing so much super mario sunshine yesterday. :(

SOS: our house is being taken over by video games!! now we have them all--ps2, gamecube and our newest addition, xbox!

this trip to hawaii is really stressing me out. i really don't want to go anymore. :( i keep thinking that there is no way i can afford this trip, even with my tax refund. grr...i'm really irritated that w's [idiot] step-sister decided to have her wedding in kauai. what a burden on us all. and now that w is unemployed, it's not like we can afford to take a vacation! i can't even afford to buy groceries right now! (i have $1 and some change in my wallet, and a little over $9 in my checking account. i don't know if i can make it til thursday, my next payday.) but it's too late for me to back out, we've got our plane tix, our inter-island flights, our hotels are booked, our rental cars too. :( i hope my attitude will change once i'm there. i was planning to go skydiving, but i don't think i can spend that kind of money... i hate this, i know money doesn't buy happiness, but you know, sometimes it really helps!

have you seen bowling for columbine? man, talk about disturbing. it just paints a really horrible picture of american society, and our paranoia as a general population. they show clips from the shooting at columbine high school, and it was so disturbing i couldn't help but cry. i don't want to give away too much in case you haven't seen it (in which case you really should, it's still playing in theaters). but i have to say i love the last interview with charleton heston. what a superb fella. :P

w and i had one of those really great talks the other night. i can't remember how it started, we were in the car driving home from having dinner with my parents, and we started talking about our initial impressions of each other and how our mutual friend was so addament about us dating, even tho i had a boyfriend at the time. well, somehow the conversation ended up somewhere along the lines of how one little thing in your life can change everything. i won't go into the boring details, but it just made me think that even tho i may have many regrets (well, not many, but a few), i can't say that i would want to change them if i could, cuz i wouldn't be where i'm at today, or surrounded by the people that i absolutely cannot imagine living without. funny how things work. that one decision leads the way to so much more...

okay, i think gene from oxenrose has revalidated my faith in hairstylists!! he's an interesting guy, like a black man trapped in a white man's body. he's super friendly but not all chit chatty where he isn't working on my hair. and my hair is exactly what i wanted him to do! thanks v, for the great referral!! gene rocks!! the scalp/neck massage was worth it alone. so if anyone out there in the sf area is looking for a new hairstylist, go to gene!

i started watching star search, and they totally changed the format and it's just not the same. but i did end up watching the bachelorette only cuz my roommate was, and it was pretty interesting. i'm trying not to get too addicted to too many reality tv shows, but sometimes it gets so outrageous, it's hard not to watch! hahaha...what a couch potato!

i need to clean now. buh-bye!

i was doing a search on "burberry bag" on google, and my blog popped up!!! hahaha...that's funny.

i still can't believe it's 2003. ever since i graduated school and entered the workforce, i've noticed that time has just flown by. that really scares me. but i have made a haircut appointment with gene for next saturday (recommended by vivalacious). i have to admit, i'm not looking forward to it...too many bad haircut experiences has scarred me. i was on the verge of being forced to just grow out my hair til it touched the ground like those ladies you see on those make-over shows who haven't cut their hair in 20 years. gross, can you imagine??

in other news, i know 5 people that have gotten engaged between christmas eve and new year's day. wow, that's a lot of engagements. i've heard some really great engagements stories, and i got to thinking, how do these people come up with that? if you were to propose to someone, how would you do it? i don't even know where to begin. and i don't really want to think about that right now...
