It's Official!!!

The verdict is finally in! I am a college graduate! Yay me!

Wristband for iPhone??

My dearly beloved was so excited to get iBowl on his iPhone.





I laughed as I lightheartedly poked fun at the Wii lawsuits while suggesting iPhone should have a "safety strap."








No more than 2 minutes later, dearly beloved THREW his iPhone across the room and SLAMMED into the wall! Luckily, it didn't turn out like this:

Planning Ahead

Did I have the best NYE of my life? Yes, indeed. Did I still miss Kaskade? Yes, indeed. Lucky for me, The Park UltraLounge is bringing him back in three short months. Oh, Kaskade, how I miss thee. Although I'm ashamed to admit, I have not seen Kaskade since etd.POP last May. I promise to know every song from Strobelite Seduction by April 16. I also promise to sing and dance to heart out on the eve of April 16. By the way: No, I do not work for The Park. No, I do not work for Om Records. It's just that I heart Kaskade. Thanks, Park, for bringing him back before they make me go to therapy.

See you soon! <3

Mission: Accomplished

So, I actually did it. I passed all of my classes. I am pretty darn proud of how well I did, too -- considering I was working full-time and taking 21 units!! It's official - I'm a college graduate. I'm going to treat myself with something really fantastic when I get my tuition reimbursement from work. Any ideas??

Day One to Day Six

Jury Duty: I had jury duty yesterday. Well, sort of. If you have ever had jury duty and never actually entered a courtroom but waited around ALL day, then you know what I'm talking about. Literally, I waited in a big room with dozens of people watching movies all day. It wasn't so bad because I was still getting paid :) But I did really want to be on a jury and say "GUILTY!"

Vegetarianism: We all know that I've been quite the animal rights activist over the last year, but I have a confession: I have completely fallen off the wagon. I even had a *gasp* cheeseburger yesterday. It tasted so good -- but I knew it was wrong because I had to force myself to not think about what I was eating... That can't be a good thing. I am definitely going back -- but I just had to 'fess up to my carnivorism.

Yoga: I am in serious deprivation of yoga time. During my last semester(!) of college, I practiced about 2 hours total. Not good. So, I'm coming back full speed - tonight. I'm excited to get back in to yoga-shape because I really want to start yoga school this year.

Library: It's time for me to get caught up with my pop culture reading. This week, I am starting Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert and The History of Love by Nicole Krauss. I am also anxiously waiting for The Road by Cormac McCarthy to become available at the library. Yes, I am a total geek. I love libraries. I have a list going already but, if you have any recommendations, I'd love to hear from you.
