Was he just being a salesman?
2007-05-31 01:34:00
Okay, so I might need a little advice again. When I wrote that blog on Monday, I totally didn't consider the fact that he was being so flirtatious and friendly, giving me his number, just because he was being a salesman. (Although technically, he works in finance so he's not a salesman). It turns out girls and guys have different opinions.All my girlfriends agree that he's interested. Otherwise, why would he give me his cell and ask to hang out? He could have given my parents his cell, and tell them to call him if they have any questions. Afterall, my parents were the ones who bought the car, they're the ones with the money.However, my guy friends, (and I've talked to two of them), both think he was just being a salesman. They said he "might" be interested, but he's probably just trying to make the family feel more comfortable. (But why didn't he give the number to my parents?) Not to mention that we've been to a lot of different dealerships lately, and none of the salesmen...

To call or not to call?
2007-05-28 19:43:00
I've been at work for 45 minutes, and I still have 7hours & 15 minutes to go. I honestly don't know how I'm going to keep myself awake, since I'm already falling asleep at the desk. There haven't been any customers, and I don't think there will be. It's Memorial Day, don't spend it at the library!! There are no office jobs for me to do, no filing, billing, anything at all, so basically all I have to do is wait for customers and help them out...but it's hard when no one is here! I literally woke up 15 minutes before I had work, so that meant no makeup, and no shower. I hate waking up late and having to rush, because I feel scrubby for the rest of the day until I can take that shower, and put on that makeup. I'm all for natural beauty, but I don't have it. Whenever I don't wear makeup, people always tell me, "Wow, you look tired". Gee, what a nice way of saying I look like shit!I have a small paper to write, so hopefully I can get that done while I'm here. I'm so envious...

Eff YOU Emergency 911
2007-05-27 13:36:00
It is 4:36 am and yet I am compelled to blog. Why? Because my friends and I just suffered a car crash on the freeway...and I have a little ranting to do.First of all-I was driving Best Friend's car because everyone drank except me. I specifically didn't drink any alcohol so we could be SAFE, and get home safely, etc. I'm very responsible as DD.Second of all-I was driving, perfectly awake and alert, at no more than 65 mph. SERIOUSLY. The reason? A cop had just driven by 5 minutes prior, and I didn't want to get pulled over for any type of speeding, especially since it wasn't my car, and I left my license at home.Third-The next thing we know, we feel a huge impact on the back of our car. I was going straight in the second lane (one of the slower lanes), at the speed limit, and we were SO close to getting back to school. I was so shocked at first, everything was in slow motion, I thought we were going to flip over or spin out of control, get seriously injured, or *knock on wood*, ...

Mr. Generous...you can't buy me
2007-05-26 02:07:00
This past week has been pretty hectic...I just want to be done with school, basically everyone is out of school already except for schools on the quarter system. We have about 3 more weeks, including finals. I'm so restless and OVER school right now. It kinda sucks that I'm taking summer school, but it shouldn't be too bad, since each session is only 5 weeks long.So, I feel kind of bad because I've been a little ....immature... lately. I've been avoiding calls from that guy in my previous post (let's call him Shimmy for the unfortunate lapdance he gave me). He came over to pick up his bag, and Best Friend had to cover for me, twice. She basically told him I was sleeping each time he asked for me, so he has the idea that I sleep nonstop between the hours of 2-11pm. Anyway, he stopped calling later in the week, so that's pretty much old news.I don't think I've written about Mr. Gene rous before, but now is the time. The reason I haven't written about him is because I haven't...

Sun God
2007-05-19 01:06:00
I'm so anxious right now and eager to get out of work!! It really sucks that the biggest party day of the year for UCSD students, I'm stuck at work basically from 830 am to 600pm, with a break in between. That means, while everyone is crazy intoxicated, I get to sit back and watch, and sit back at a computer for a couple hours.Sun God is an annual festival where UCSD students get all crazy, and basically start drinking in the morning. Everyone is scattered all around campus completely drunk, and it's probably one of the only times people come from other colleges to party. To end the night, there is a concert, and this year the concert features acts such as Ben Kweller, Third Eye Blind, and T.I. Basically, the campus is crazy, to say the least.As I was getting ready for work, everyone started to pour into our apartment to drink. Except, everyone that came to drink at our place, was already completely wasted. This one guy I know...well he was pretty hilarious to say the least. I do...

I guess it's a good thing that I actually said hi, because he sat next to me in lecture and started talking. So, at least I'll gain a new friend out of this. =].So...I'm pretty excited because I got 100% on my Methods of Media Production Midterm...and my TA said that she taught this course for five years, and no one has gotten 100% before! That definitely made my day...shameless bragging, but it's not like I'm going around bragging to people I know or something.I'm kind of annoyed because this guy just came up to my window about 30 minutes ago, and he made me feel like a horrible person for somethign I didn't even do. He came up and asked for paper. Normally we charge people for paper, but I could tell he was homeless so I didn't say anything since it was only like, ten pages. He started asking questions about debi...

So...cute, dorky, unique guy that I met Thursday night and had a pretty interesting convo with? Taken. Of course he has a girlfriend, don't they all? Or the ones I'm attracted to at least? Oh well, I'm sure that he'll be a pretty interesting friend...he's really entertaining.Anyway...got some pretty interesting news last night. My childhood best friend just had a baby three weeks ago, and I didn't even really know that she was pregnant!! We kind of drifted apart after sophomore year of high school...we went to different high schools and we just lived in different worlds even though we lived in the same city. She hung out with the girls that would kick your ass, who didn't really care about education, and I hung out with the "smart" people, who were the complete opposite of what you would call "ghetto".I just couldn't believe she had a baby...and I didn't even know. It's so sad how people grow apart, but we really are two complete opposites. However, we share a bond of chil...

I was at work yesterday, when this middle aged lady came in to make copies of pictures of her daughter. She looked like the type of woman that you would want to be when you got to be her age. Still pretty, happy, well put together, fashionably dressed, perfect posture, etc. Anyway, as I started making copies for her, she started making conversation with me, relation to her college days. Anyway, she kept on talking and asked me random questions just to keep the conversation going, and she was so enthusiastic and nice about everything. When she left, she wished me luck on midterms & life in general, and I just thought it was really sweet. Simple things like super nice people can really make a person's day just that much better. I can't explain it, but she just gave off this positive energy & aura, and yea, affected me enough that I had to blog about it.There are parts of my life that haven't really been revealed on this blog yet, although I think I will do so slowly.

Sleep is very valuable to me

...and that's why I'm frustrated that I woke up to get ready for my 10am section, decided to check my email on a whim since I don't usually check it in the morning, and it turns out my TA emailed us at 700am to let us know section is cancelled today. THANKS for the heads up! I'm just glad I managed to check it before I actually walked to class and waited like an idiot.Haha, I shouldn't be complaining, but I just wish he could have let us know last night. Otherwise, he's actually a really cool TA.I think it's too late to get in 30 more mins of sleep since I have class at 11, and I might as well get ready. Boo.Um, a better update later I guess.

So, for the past month, I've been attempting to talk to my ideal crush, Fred Wing. It NEVER happens to work out. My attempts were turning into a pathetic "Missi on : Impossible". So, imagine my luck when Fred Wing walked into my place of employment today! I told my coworker I had a mini crush on him, so she let me help him out.He was a really polite customer, so I decided, what the heck, might as well attempt to make conversation. Here's my lame attempt to talk to my mini crush...(yes I'm pretty lame)..Me: "You look familiar. Weren't you in my Comm class last quarter?"FW: "Oh yea, you look familiar too, with Kelli right?"Me: "Yea, and I think you're in my Comm class this quarter.

According to my coworker, my life motto should be, "The people I know, the life I live, FACE".That probably doesn't make any sense. It makes me sound a lot better than what it actually means."The people I know"...refers to all the weird creepers/liars/backstabbers/dramafilled people I happen to have daily encounters with. He swears that I come across the most "unique" people, and that definitely isn't a good "unique"."The life I live"...refers to how "boring" my life is in comparison to everyone else. He once said, "Instead of the world revolving around you, you revolve around the world. There's always all this drama around you but it's never yours." I kind of think that's a good thing but yea, not going to lie, my life isn't the most interesting, but I quite enjoy it ;]. I guess he thinks I'm even more boring because I never seem to be dating anyone...and he's right. I'm never dating anyone.

...I know because some random girl told me so while I was walking down the main walkway at my school. It was pretty hilarious, I was walking alone and this girl that is walking in the opposite direction of me starts walking slowly, with her hands in her pocket, smiles creepily at me and says really slowly..."Jesu s loves you".I don't know why but I started bursting out laughing. I couldn't stop laughing for about five minutes, so I looked like an idiot laughing to myself walking through school. It's not that I was laughing at what she said, but the fact that she even said it, and the way that she said it. People are just so..."unique".As for my religious beliefs...well maybe I'll get into that another day, cause honestly, half the time, I'm not even sure what I believe, and I definitely have a cynical opinion about religion in general, but yea.One more midterm tomorrow, until week 7...I can do it...I hope.

I hate saying goodbye. When we left Thailand last year, I was bawling, and honestly, kept crying about it for a week or two. I hate the idea of knowing that I won't be able to see my family who I got to bond with, for years. I hate the fact that I won't get to see my two close friends everyday and share memorable moments with them. In fact, I haven't even seen Fuckles since a week after we got back from Thailand, and that was last August. We used to be best friends. I hate the fact that I won't get to experience the feeling of being on vacation, and experiencing a different culture whenever I want to. Anyway, I just hate saying goodbye.So tonight, my cousin left. I've been dreading this day for a few days now, honestly since she got here, because a week and half is such a short period o...

So I've been pretty busy the past week spending time with my cousin from Thailand, work, and school. We took her to Disneyland, California Adventures, Universal Studios, and Seaport Village (SO pretty...I love SD). While I don't have much to write about that, I definitely had a lot of fun, and I'm already really sad and dreading Sunday, since that's when she leaves. At least when we came back home from Thailand, I had her visit to look forward to, but now that she's going back soon, I know I won't be going to Thailand until at least after I graduate college. Hopefully Wifey & Fuckles can go back with me so it can be a reunion, I honestly don't think Thailand would have been as fun without them.Anyway, I'm pretty stressed out since I have a paper due tomorrow, and FOUR midterms next week. Two of them are take home midterms, and the other two are regular midterms. I've never had all of my class midterms fall on the same week, so I'm trying really hard to get a head start, bu...

I just LOVE the energy and excitement of an airport. I know some people hate it and think that people get way too crazy, and things take forever, but I LOVE it. I love the feeling of knowing that all these people are all expecting to either go somewhere new & exciting, go home, or await the arrival of loved ones. I always get sort of a buzz in airports, but yea.Anyway, Wifey picked me up yesterday (along with her "boyfriend?"), and we drove from San Diego to LAX, because my cousin from Thailand was finally arriving!! I'm sad that Fuckles couldn't make it there with us, since Wifey, Fuckles, and I experienced the craziness of Thailand together, and definitely made memories with each other. When we saw my cousin, it took a while for it to sink in that it has almost been a year since our vacation in Thailand, which made me a little sad. It was seriously one of the best memories/experience of my life.But yea, tomorrow night we are going to spend some time in San Diego, then Saturday c...

Quick, random update since I've been SO exhausted lately and I don't know why.

I've never watched a season of The Bachelor before, but now I'm officially hooked. Andy, the bachelor, is like the perfect guy on paper, but something about him is so off. He's either just socially awkward or gay. I can't believe he eliminated two of the prettiest girls tonight either. Oh, and Stephanie "South Carolina" is FUGLY and annoys the shit out of me. That is all.Random pet peeves that have irritated me lately:1) When people put their feet on my chair when they're sitting behind me, and they're wearing sandals and their feet touch my back!!

Let me make it clear that I am OVER Pronto. Yes, I was completely infatuated at one point, and then I was going back and forth with my feelings for a little while after that. Anyway, I'm definitely over him, (and have a plenty long list of crushes that I will talk about later to prove it). Anyway, Pronto was over today for a little while, and I was laying in bed reading for class, while Coco was laying next to me. We had just given him a bath a couple days ago, and he has all the necessary shots/deworm/flea medicine for his age right now. EVERYONE touches/plays/holds Coco. Anyway, Pronto was leaving, so he hugged Best Friend, then said "Bye Socal Sweetie, I would give you a hug but I can't because Coco was touching you."

Instead of heading out to one of the many parties going on last night, me, Brains, Best Friend, and Sweetie (we'll call her sweetie cause she probably is the sweetest girl I've ever met), decided to have a girls' night in.We've never really had a drunken girls' night in, although we've had plenty of sober ones. We decided to get completely obliterated and have fun together, without the potential of creating awkward situations with guys, and just not caring about how ridiculous we looked. Best Friend is a total lightweight, so the rest of us started taking shots without her. We decided to keep a tally on our arm, and I woke up this morning with 13 tallies. Now, I'd cut that number in half because the shot glasses we were using were probably half the size of a real shot glass.Anyway, the night was tons of fun. Brains baked a cake whilst intoxicated, and we still managed to go next door and offer it to our neighbors (although it wasn't completely cooked, oops). Best Friend and ...

I hate lower division Comm classes

I'm reallly not liking my lower division Comm class right now. It's "Methods of Media Production", and we are learning all the aspects of production & film. I thought that this would be one of the most interesting classes I would be required to take, but we keep watching all these indie/foreign films, and it is VERY hard for a film to keep me engaged. That's why I mainly only enjoy suspense/horror films, or anything with a twist, because it's unpredictable, so I actually enjoy watching it.I feel so anti artsy when I say that I hate the films we've had to watch for this class so far, but they are so incredibly boring, and I just CAN NOT appreciate it for its art & value, and all the dimensions of production. We spent our last lecture watching a film that was made ONLY of photographs, with a voice narrating the story, which was the lamest story I've heard in a long time (something about aliens, death, and love). Everything we are learning about is so new to me in that class, so ...

I'm considering rushing a pre-law fraternity. Should I do it? As long as the dues aren't ridiculous or the same as the sorority I'm currently in (but soon to be deactivated from), I don't see a problem. I'm just not sure about it yet...I know I want to be involved, but I also know joining a Panhellenic sorority this year was not the best decision for me. Honestly, I think it has to do with which sorority I ended up in, and not with the concept of a sorority itself. I don't know, but I'm considering it. I'm not even sure if I want to go to law school yet, but yea.So, attempt #1 at trying to start a conversation with Fred Wing failed.

So I'm currently at work and I'm freaking out just a little. My parents made me keep Coco in the garage when I took him home, so I promised that Best Friend would take him today until everyone moved back. I've dropped Coco off at my apartment, and Best Friend doesn't get off work until 830, which I thought would be fine because she could take him in at her place until tomorrow night when I move back. However, she just called and said she has work all day tomorrow and isn't willing to leave him at her place alone (although he has a kennel), and I can NOT leave him in my apartment because he can't be there when I move back with my parents. So I'm currently on the phone with her trying to figure this out...this really won't be a problem when all of Coco's mommy's and daddy are here at SD and we're back in school...but I still have to go back home tonight and my parents are not willing to take him.

Well...I finally found a puppy that captured my heart. After days of constantly refreshing Craigslist, (and losing out on puppies because people seriously snatch them up so fast), I found the cutest little chihuahua. I was hesitant about it at first because I know that Kandy, Kare Bear, and Brains are not fans of chihuahuas. Best Friend doesn't even like them, but I told her to trust me on this one, so she actually drove me to pick up the puppy without seeing him first.The cost was initially $350, but then I tried to say I could only pay $150. She agreed to let him go for $200 because they already bought him all this food, toys, wee wee pads, etc. As soon as Best Friend got off work I called her up and we decided to go get him.The place was in Mission Valley, which is relatively close to La Jolla. However, we probably had to go to the most GHETTO part of the city in order to get the puppy. We were seriously freaking out...two young college girls driving in the ghetto to pick up a p...
