sb since the new yr
played tennis sat morning.. wasn't going to.. but.. decided i was just being a lazy ass and got myself up and went. it was pretty fun.. played mostly with this guy named "tom"? he had a really heavy vietnamese accent so it was hard to understand him. and he covered, LITERALLY covered--his face was white!--with suntan lotion.. while i forgot to put some on. booo.. lost most of my sets (3/4) but it was fun anyways :) they were all close ones except for the one that i won (w/ tom).
decided i wasn't going to take the 2pm train. ate lunch.. then noah and joyce were gonna go boutique shopping (apparently there's 2 in the east lake shopping center??) so i went too :) went to.. adanyas? or something like that. next to happy bagel, joauquin's(sp?). got a dress.. size L.. so it's very loose.. but it was on sale (orig $40, got it for $34 WITH another 20% off). i figured it might look better with a belt, but who knows. i'd need to get a thin(?) black belt.. maybe.. hmm.. tried some chip and pepper jeans.. SO COMFORTABLE! but i wasn't in love with the fit :\ so i didn't get them. tried on some other nice jeans at the other boutique that was closing (SASSY BOUTIQUE - 60% off?) but wasn't in love with the fit either.. boohoooo.. also went to steinmart and bought some stockings.
home, tired. showered, packed, left for the train.. got there around 5:20 or something, bought my tickets, waited. got on the train.. sat across from some white guy who seemed kinda miffed that i was invading "his space". i dunno. tried to sleep but managed to get one of the few seats that DIDN'T RECLINE. ugh! he left after oxnard so i stole his seat and MAN, train travel isn't so bad! hahha. of course we were delayed 30 min but, eh. bryant picked me up, i was very happy to see him :) went home.. KNOCKED OUT.. hahaha.
today? woke up 8am :( went to class.. 9:30-3:30! ughh. 30 min break for lunch and breaks during class but still. loooong. chipotle for lunch. after class, went to blue bee.. since they were having massive sales.. andddd..
^ my new jeans. looooove! :) it makes my butt look nice.. hahahha. from BLUE BEE DENIM.. entire store was 80% off! so instead of $198 (in store price), i got them for about $45 :) tehee. i've been wanting grey jeans for awhile.. so YAY! :)
got home.. and.. found out my car was freakin' towed!!!! D: D: D: D: D: i usually park on a side street, since bryant and i go basically every where together and since the other roomie needs a parking spot. and it's usually FINE.. but apparently they were having construction and had a sign posted up so i got freakin' TOWED! i was REALLY upset. and the sign says "no parking tuesday" blahblah.. SO GAY. i don't know what's going on! :( :( called SB city hall, said i needed to call the PD.. said it was a $101 fee plus the car wasn't in my name so my parents had to fax something over, releasing it to me. then on top of that, the cost for towing the car (and storage for one day) is $242!!! WHAT THE FCUKK! i was freeeeaking upset. i think i might try to fight it (even though i'm sure court won't be fun). SIHT, man! i'm pissed! i teared up for awhile.. then bryant hugged me and made me laugh. still kinda upset. gotta go pick it up before 2pm otherwise i'll get charged another $40 something for another day of storage. UGH~ :( what a ballbuster.
anyway.. yea :\ sigh. bryant and i decided to wake up every day at 8am, regardless of the day.. and sleep at 11:00 or 11:30 latest.. just to get me on a normal person's sleeping schedule.. hahha. aiyeee. i bet this first week's gonna be hell! and no more sleeping in, not even on weekends! gonna be a bummer but it's for the best, i really do have a horrible sleeping schedule, and waking up late has made me late for multiple, multiple things.
on a positive note.. my dad bought some mexican hot chocolate from a 99 cent store.. and it's pretty good! only thing that sucks is that it takes awhile to prep since you gotta grate the chocolate block thing, heat up milk, etc. but it's.. i dunno.. cinnamon-y? and good :) so that's been my comfort "food"..
and that ends my blog. my right hand keeps spazzing for no reason.
i don't think i've forgotten to update about anything, right? :\ hmm..
ah! being spendthrift. the jeans i had to snag 'cause i've been wanting those for awhile and the perfect opportunity just came up :) other than that.. i'm trying to stay away from clothing and stuff. i'm pretty sure i found cuzz's birthday present (early, i know! haha) and part of bryant's birthday present (feb5).. and some darned cute boots off wet seal.. 'cause i've been wanting another pair of boots (but brown) since my purse is now brown instead of black. vanity thing. but they are cute :) and besides that.. i dunno. maybe a lipstick or two (NYX round lipsticks.. about $1.50/ea).. and.. that's IT. save save save! bryant and i agreed on trying not to eat out (but darn these 6 hour classes.. we'll just have to make/bring lunch).. my bank accnts are at an all time low! :( booo.. but i did get $740 of the $760 that i was owed.. but.. still. blehhh.
goodnight chicas! love you <3

karma
OKAY. so i've never spent this much in my life :| just in this past month! didn't realize it until i got home from YL and checked my account online. ouch. spent that much with only 2 presents. well.. 1.. and 1 partial :| granted, i got some money back (returns, my rebate, etc) but still! ugh :|
so guess what! my body completely breaks down on me. played tennis 2 days in a row (after not having played for about a year.. yea.. not a good idea)--my ENTIRE BODY is sore!! got a cold sore on my lip.. then another one right next to it! then all the sudden.. the areas of my face that are usually the MOST oily (T zone and cheeks next to my nose) suddenly get flaky-scaly-dry. and no matter how much lotion i put on there, it STILL just gets flaky.. but the rest of my forehead gets normal-oily. then i was straightening my hair and i burned the side of my finger. couldn't get out of bed til 4pm today, i was just so tired.
after christmas presents.. NO MORE BUYING FOR ME. just bday presents and stuff. i'm serious this time. at least not until after i've worked enough to pay back for this. teeeechnically i think i have but.. you know. ugh. UGH! i feel so materialistic. maybe i'll sell some stuff :| we'll see.
time to go to bed so i can wake up at a decent hour... rant more tomorrow.

151. guys to girls
-- TAKEN FROM WWW.DATINGISH.COM
When we're around the guys, we're bound to act differently. Just like we act differently around our parents. Don't get mad at us because of this.
We have feelings. We're not blocks of muscle that watch sports every Sunday.
We enjoy sex. It's innate. Get over it!
Why do most guys want a boy instead of girl for children? Every time we look at our future daughters, we don't want to say, "Crap, one day she's going to let a man stick his penis in her mouth."
That stash of downloaded porn on the PC? Totally not our fault! If you fulfill our needs, there wouldn't be any in the first place.
Add plus three for every girl he told you he's slept with.
Some of us guys are real attention seekers in a relationship. If we're ignoring you or not talking to you, just talk to us and break the silence.
So you think women are the only ones who get upset you forget important dates? Wrong! If you thought it wasn't as big of a deal for guys to forget their birthdays, meetings, dates, etc, you'll know why when they ignore you for a few days.
Some guys secretly wish they could apply make-up to look better. But that's some realllll sissy ish.
When we hear a "girly" song and pretend to "play dance/sing" along to it, we actually really enjoy the song more than you think. "I kissed a girl, and I liked itttttt!"
When you ask us if we're jealous, nine times out of ten we'll deny. Nine times out of ten, we're probably jealous.
We love bathroom humor, especially farting. It's an easy laugh, and we do it so you can laugh and love us more!
Besides great looks, loyalty is up there with one of the biggest traits to have.
definitely found that interesting.. actually that whole site is pretty interesting :) i'll read it more when i have time.. or more like, the next time i get bored. of course i never had any of those misunderstandings with bryant :| is it weird that we haven't had a serious fight yet? i've told a few other people and they were reaaaally amazed. is it so hard? people say it's easier 'cause you see the all the time (i can understand that one.. i HATE the whole distance thing).. then some people say it's harder because you see them ALL THE TIME and you really NEED SPACE.. which.. i don't find is the case. hmm. i guess we're just uberly compatible :)
which i don't mean to be taken as "if you fight you're not compatible" blahblah. totally not true.
-- on other news
faaaaaaaaavorite fashion site? WWW.CHICTOPIA.COM !
finally went through other people's blog things and definitely found some favorite styles.. even though they're all stick skinny :| but they are super cute.
cardigan! (styleaddicted)hat! not so crazy about the pants but.. i think she's cute. in a platonic non-gay way. (gabiatch)
THIS blog is also pretty helpful.. i grabbed an entry about DRY SHAMPOO. cute on a regular basis, with lots of tips inbetween.
-- "checking out"
SO.. apparently.. when i was dating james (i think it was james.. i dunno. i asked bryant and he said he hinted at it but he didn't think it was him that i was referring to) he told me that i check out WAAAYYY more girls than he ever does. is that weird? i can't help it! i just look at how they walk, how they move, what they wear. and especially when we go OUT.. it's just way easier to check out girls than guys because.. face it ladies.. MOST guys are NOT "eye candy" status. heck, most of them don't even DRESS well enough for you to look at them.
girls, on the other hand, at least try to look nice. plus their clothes are way more varied than guys whose outfits normally consist of tshirt, jeans, sneakers. OR.. hoodie, jeans, sneakers.. OR button down, jeans, sneakers... OR on the RARE occasion, button down, nice pants, nice shoes. but those rare occasions are usually on dates. what guy walks around in nice clothes ALL THE TIME?
okay.. well.. i can think of one or two exceptions. and i definitely check them out (GUILTY!) when i see them :) i can't help it! nicely dressed guys = MUY BUENOOOO. one of the things i look for in a guy.. i mean.. besides the face. if he isn't cute in the first place, man, i dunno. i guess i'd still look at their clothes. bryant definitely dressed well (button downs all the time! looooveeee) when i first met him. big plus. i ADORE button downs! i don't know what it is. he recently bought a black one (for when he assists for weddings, or other dress-up occasions) and MAN.. he put it on when he got home (he went shopping without me.. at southcoast. it's a fairly short story.. just boring) and i almost drooled.
ATTRACTION IS VERY IMPORTANT!
me on the other hand.. i think i'm dressing better NOW than i did before. actually, i think i LOOK better now than i did before. with my semi-long, straggly, self-cut ragged hair.. weird dye color (highlights that did not compliment).. constant spaghetti straps that i bought in packs from costco (i still wear them! they're way too comfortable).. jeans.. and my baggy brooks zip hoodie (i still wear! i reallllyy need a new jacket). the general "sarah" look that you might think of when you think of me.
i attribute this to having my own checking account.. and being able to order online (so much easier, even if things don't fit sometimes :| BLUGH!). because, face it. if i were using cash and having to browse through stores.. or using daddy's credit card.. i would probably still have the same clothes as i did before. OH. i guess bryant also got me into it.. i was tired of going out and having him look WAY better than i did (our first few dates! i looked so bad! hahha we were just getting done shooting and were late to our reservation so i had NO chance to even change or shower or put on make up.. i felt WAY under dressed.. and WAY nervous. first date, hello? i guess i could update on our first few dates but i think you guys may know already, hee hee). of course i'd probably have more money :| but i'd have more money if people paid me back! i'm short $1640 at the moment. that's like.. 2.75 months of MY share of the rent. GLUGH!
-- anywho..
it's about 2AM :| i SHOULD get to sleep.. fell asleep after watching SOPRANOS (i really like that show.. and i'm not quite sure why) around 9.. woke up around 12.. wandered around, put food away (hamburger helper ftw.. once again), did dishes (again).. was majorly thirsty but found we only have soda :| a case of mountain dew and a strawberry fanta from the day before. so i opted with the MD and.. hopefully it's not keeping me awake. i doubt it. it never does, even when i want it to. i think caffeine for me is psychological.. i THINK it's keeping me awake, i KNOW it's caffeine..
i suddenly got sleepy :|
hope this post was more substantial than my normal "um.. i don't have anything else to do.. so i'm going to blog" sort of things.
