Hello Barcelona

Last night I was watching Vicky Christina Barcelona, while the movie was just so-so I loved the imagery and since I already have the travel bug I decided that I'm going to go back next summer so today I opened a separate savings account that no contains 6 dollars towards Barcelona next summer. I have been there once before, I got to celebrate my 13th birthday slicing a cake with a Spanish sword! Unfortunately I fell really ill during the trip (including a doctors visit to my hotel room, shots in the rump and vicarious pills that were swallowed all with packaging I could only make out 1 to 2 words on) resulting in me missing some of the things I was really wanting to see on my trip. It also was more of a planned trip than I would have liked. I am not a very touristy person when I visit places. I've been to new york city and never seen the Chrysler building or the statue of liberty but I don't feel that I really missed out.
So, I guess it's back to Barcelona! I have a friend that lives in the south of France that hopefully I'll be able to hop on a train and visit with as well.

Welcome to the bandwagon!

I recently joined Twitter and I need some people to follow!

Who else is using twitter let me hear your tweets!

Good day sun

The only thing I require in a house or apartment is windows.
Growing up with cereal box sized windows is the most depressing things.
I dream of big sunny rooms.

I'm not cut out for the porn industry.

Finding work has been proving more and more difficult where even my friends who have degrees from four year colleges can't find work. What hope is there for me being a second year college student who isn't currently enrolled? Sitting around the house all day because I literally have 50 cents to my name and no gas has proven rather difficult. I have a serious case of cabin fever. Out of desperation I decided to reply to an ad for a sales associate position at an adult shop in Portland, Oregon. The same day I applied for a cashier position at World Market. The following week I got a letter back from both businesses saying that I didn't have the qualifications for the positions I had applied for. This boggles my mind. I have been in a sales/cashier position since I turned 16 (5 years) which includes the last two years I spent as a sales associate at Nordstrom. But apparently I can't ring up porn and vibrators or candles and ethnic snacks. SUCH A CONFIDENCE BOOST!

Scent of a woman

The fragrance I'm in love with for fall has got to be the new True Religion perfume that was released this winter. It's so clean and fresh and a little bit girlie which will makes it the perfect everyday scent and a great summer scent. You don't have to be a True Religion denim fan ( It most certainly isn't my favorite) but the perfume is great! I was impressed. If you're a fan of fragrances too be sure to check out the freshest womens fragrance website Scent.net. What's your favorite everyday fragrance or special occasion fragrance?
I know if i'm feeling like a splurge I have to go for Viktor and Rolf Flowerbomb!

Seriously?

A funny story..

The other day we took one of our cars in to be serviced at the car repair place we've been using for years. When we went to go pick up our newly doctored automobile the guy hands us a bag of stuff and says "We've had this for a few years it's your guys' belongings from another car you had brought in."... Okay these were things that I haven't seen since about my sophomore year of high school. If they knew who they belonged to, when they pulled them out of a car they were fixing.. how come they never thought of contacting us? Some of the stuff was nostalgic and fun to go through being that all of it was mine but in the bottom of the bag were a pair of eyeglasses! Not just reading glasses but my nice prescription bi-focals that i got yelled at for days for losing! So, now I have these eyeglasses with a non-current prescription and I don't know what to do with them, I'd like to donate with them but i'm not sure of any drop off places or maybe there's an organiztion where you can mail them. Does anyone know anything about donating eyeglasses?

Guess where I'm headed next week.

A Haunting

5 reasons why A HAUNTING is the best daytime T.V. Program
(in no particular order of importance)

1. The re-enactment actors are polar opposites of the real people they are portraying.
2. Some people choose to go anonymous, where they are videotaped so all you can see is a ridiculous outline of their out of date hair style. Usually mullet-ish. So they can hide their identity in fear of their lives (over a haunting). Because paranormal beings obviously care which network programs you sell your story out to.
3. It's the most random show on the discovery channel.
4. The stupid sound they play like someone tapping an xylephone repeadidly before each commercial segment so you know that's the end of that "chapter"
5. What's better than a show that's scary and rediculously hilarious at the same time!

Miss Hepburn's Beauty Tips

Audrey Hepburn's Beauty Tips:

1. For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
2. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
3. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
4. For beautiful hair, let a child run his/her fingers through it once a day.
5. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone.
6. People, even more than things have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed; never throw out anyone.
7. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands; one for helping yourself and the other for helping others.

The way things go.

I've been feeling kind of depressed lately, I think the whole lack of job thing is starting to get to me.
Today I found a job posting for a perfect fit and I spent all afternoon writing this amazing cover letter because it was a position I really wanted. I went to go back to it to get the information on where to go tomorrow and the posting was removed by the company.
That's how it seems to be going lately.

on another note, i've spent too much time dwelling on the past.
It just makes me feel sad and that I haven't come very far
when I thought I put all those things behind me.
I feel Stagnant.


Not to mention I missed the concert that I have been waiting for a couple months
now to go to tonight.
Andrew Bird is one of my favorite musicians and I couldn't get lame less than 30 dollar tickets
because I am jobless. If you get a chance you should listen to his new Album Noble Beast. The whole album is available right now to listen to freely on myspace.

Valentines day.

My Valentines day was one of the best days I've had in a very long time even though my boyfriend blew me off!

A good friend took me to the coast with him and his other 2 friends.
The couple was incredibly nice. We spent the day touring a pub, Hiking in Pacific city and wedding crashing.

The weather was AMAZING for the Oregon Coast.
