Arbitrary Mind Picks #40
1. I obviously love coffee. I wish i loved water just as much. Actually, i wish i loved water everyday like how i love it on a morning of a vicious hangover... because those are the days i understand that water means life.
2. Is it the new thing that when you say you'll meet at 4pm, you should be ready to meet at 5? Then why can't people just say 5pm and show up on time? It's confusing.
I just realized yesterday, as i was walking towards a meeting, that it is vital to know the personality of the person you are meeting with- well, whether they are punctual or not, specifically. Because i rushed to that meeting to make it on time... only to have to wait 35 minutes.
3. I don't like waiting.
Ironic, i'm in a long distance relationship.
4. Majority of the people in this town still mistake me for a Korean. I don't know why.
5. I spoke to a bride and groom to-be yesterday... and all the while, i'm thinking, "aww" or "i wonder what my wedding will be like". A designer dress, orchids & tiny lights, childhood sweethearts, and a grand ballroom decorated to perfection... yet i've never seen a more non-enthused bride.
6. A DJ and an MC... clearly, two different things, entirely different letters, completely different occupations. I've never once mentioned that i was an MC. Only always do i say i used to DJ. Why am i getting phone calls with offers to work as an MC?
7. I miss my girls. I really do.
The drinking- not so much.
8. I see smokers everywhere. It's an interesting process to observe- the art of smoking. Sometimes, i feel like i would like to sit with cigarette at hand and puff away. The second i have a chance to... i don't.
9. Factors that contribute to my lacking sense of "style":
-taking cabs.
-scary laundry lady.
How sad and completely limiting.
10. You really can't avoid drama no matter how hard you try. It exists everywhere. The plague doomed to haunt human existence for all eternity and at the same time the supposed factor that proves you're alive and living.
Personally, i don't care for it much.

Gone
Remember that cozy little inn Dylan and i were living in before we moved into the apartment? We lived there for 2 whole months. It was nice and quiet. Really comfortable and very peaceful.
Well, that's a thing of the past. They turned the ground level restaurant into a "music bar" (at night, I guess). Live bands. Drunk people. Bucket loads of fun...
I live right across the street and i keep my windows open at night. Lucky me...
This "quiet side" of town just went to the dogs.
Gone are the days of deafening silence and the lonely sound of crickets... now it's "I'll love you more today than yesterday, but not as much as tomorrow" and "You've lost that loving feeling..." Now it's gone. Gone. Gone.
*sigh*
What is this world coming to?

Arbitrary Mind Picks #39
1. I'm blessed with way more than i could possibly hope for right now. It's overwhelming and i'm grateful. Plenty of people would love to be in my shoes these days. I am the epitome of chill- and i absolutely LOVE it.
2. I know i'm getting old due to my pathetic attempt at running (or walking really fast). It's not cool to have to catch your breath every 2 minutes (and these are non-smoking lungs!). My 5 year old can run 5x farther than me without a single pause and with less time to rest. I need to up my game.
3. It's time to get contact lenses.
4. I never thought, in my wildest imagination, that i would ever be the parenting type. I was clueless about being a mother (which is how every mother starts out, i guess). I didn't even think i was very fond of children, to be honest with you. And then Dylan came into my life and the universe decided to impart wisdom upon me.
I'm proud of how far i've come. I love being Dylan's mom and i think it's safe to say that Dylan thinks i'm pretty kickass.
I got lucky- my kid's pretty darn good.
5. I have my priorities straight... which isn't something i can say for a lot of people, and to tell you the the truth, it took me a while to get here. But i made it... and it feels really good. =)
