kimmy, kimmy bo bimmy, bonana fanna fo fimmy

Kimberly or Kim: Beautiful, smart, funny, one of a kind. Dark hair, bright eyes, and honey colored skin. The girl you were always afraid to talk to. The girl every man loves, and every women sercretly does too. The most amazing woman you have ever met. The only woman who will haunt your dreams at night, and you will wake up with her sweet smell around you and the touch of her kiss on your lips.

Oh Mr. Robinson

Well, I don't know why she broke her engagement with Chris Klein, but if this was why, not too shabby.

give me a home, where the buffalo roam

well this was funny: they roam on tennis courts

but this was just sad: 'dead meat'

and also of interest, though non-buffalo related: putting the 'size' debate to rest

there is no perfect place, yes I know this is true

well, at least he tried. Man who sought new liver on billboard dies.

i was helping janice carry her new desk upstairs to her new apartment and while struggle up the stairs, we discovered that she has a cute neighbor! he even took over the task of carrying the desk and expertly lifted it over to her apartment. here's hoping there's one like him in my new new building too. ^^

so, i'm trying this new thing where i want all my blog titles to come from song lyrics... but it's getting progressively harder, and this is only the third blog i've tried it on. clever though it is (i think) the practice is quite hard to maintain. do YOU know where this one came from?

everybody knows it hurts to grow up

added another city to my mental travel log. this past weekend, i went to Providence and hung out with MCP friend michelle. i had found out about a howie day and ben folds show at Brown and asked her to come, which she in turn told her friends about and so it became a thing where after the show (which was during the day) we had a yummy barbecue and drank beer all afternoon.

see concert review here. the cliff notes: matt nathanson: hilarious and growing talent. howie day: verra awesome and lovin' him a lot, although performance was a bit lacking. ben folds: freakishly fabulous and truly terrific; there aren't enough words in the dictionary to describe his awesomeness.

it's a good thing the closet coldstone and j.p. licks require me to walk a distance in order to get there. not only does the distance discourage me from gorging unhealthy amounts of ice cream, but in the event that i do traverse over to the ice cream shops, i am forced to work off any unnecessary calories in the walk. point in case, in the previous week, in which the weather was bee-yoo-ti-ful, i had ice cream 4 out of the 7 days. it was just nice, really, to chillax in the sun and munch on ice cream like there wasn't a care in the world. we need more of those kinds of moments. [sigh]

i've decided. if i weren't going to be a pharmacist, i would wish to be a roady/band-aid. travelling to different cities, being in with the band, meeting other cool bands. yes, that would be the dream. that, or working somewhere within the industry. well, ideally, i'd like to BE a rock star, but i would totally settle for like, towel holder. [sigh again]

two weeks, kids, TWO WEEKS. ^^

it's a beautiful day, don't let it go away

i've figured it out now. last year when my dad and i came to boston to look for an apartment, we were both bewildered by how many bostonians filled the streets during the day. didn't they have jobs?

well, today was one of the first nice days in boston for months. i was able to traverse the streets in a skirt and flip flops!! i headed out for a day to soak in the sunshine and found that nearly every other bostonian had the same idea. people filled the streets, many of them enjoying a leisurely meal at the outdoor cafes on newberry st. i myself got a nice mani/pedi, snacked on some ice cream (LONG line BTW), chillaxed at starbucks with a book, and did some mild shopping. [PS, if you receive a call from me in the middle of a sunday, it'll most likely be a cry of help from me asking you to talk me out of buying something ridiculously expensive and unnecessary]. aside from the fact that tomorrow is patriot's day and the town is getting ready for the 104th (?) annual marathon, citizens were out enjoying the beautiful day. and why do they come out in droves? because they're sick of being cooped up indoor all winter!! us so-californians take for granted our freakishly good weather. when i get back, i'm eating outside as much as possible!!! also, i'm wearing every piece of summer clothing i own and i don't want to look at another winter coat until november!

lucky for you cool cats, i'll be back in three weeks. are you excited? ;)

Cool

there's an organization called School House Supplies in Portland, Oregon which gives out free school supplies to schools based on need. they are able to give away nearly millions of dollars in pencils, books, even carpet squares for reading time to public schools that are low in funding. they are able to do this because companies like kmart donate their surplus for free. in addition, FedEx and Penske also offer their delievery services for free. based on your schools economic need, they allow teachers to come and take as much as they want. the organization is also able to function due to kind donations from teachers and the public as well. $1 of donation can lead to $5 of supplies. cool, huh?

springtime

you know spring is upon you when you try to go to coldstone and there's a 40 minute line out the door. mmmmmm, coldstone. you also know it's springtime when you go to starbucks and you order an iced latte instaed of a hot one.

yesterday i was called a slut while getting into a cab, and then a bitch while getting into another cab. were people always this mean?

SF: was fun. drunk and merry with fellow Mokroopals. practiced drunken yoga..



Maroon 5 in Boston: GOT TO TOUCH RYAN DUSICK, as well as the other cool members of the band. james wore cool black blazer with hot pink lining. during soundcheck, ryan performed Queens "We are the Champions" on guitar. venue prevented me from buying beer (goddamn puritans) so went to be be drunk and merry afterwards.

Semi-formal gathering: better than expected; good excuse to get fancy. mildy buzzed during, and then drunk and merry afterwards. during the afterwards, dj played "Total Eclipse of the Heart." classic.

girls and brian v. are presently drunk and merry in vegas as we speak. sadness that i cannot join them, but joyousness in my own current drunk and merriness.
