| new song that i discovered thanks to a co-worker that burned me a mix. check it out, it's called "true affections" by the blow:
I was out of your league....
and you were twenty thousand underneath the sea
Waving affections
You were out of my league
at a distance that I didn't want to see
Down to the bottom
I wanted a junction, and often there was one
You'd surface face first and we'd share thought bubbles
and I still believe in the phrases that we breathed
but I know the distance isn't fair to cross
I was out of your league....
and you were twenty thousand underneath the sea
Waving affections
You were out of my league
at a distance that I didn't want to see
wanted you nearer
Your depths made a pressure that punctured my works
and all your fluids couldn't tolerate the force of my thirst
I love the place, where we shared our tiny grace
But just because it's real don't mean it's going to work
I was out of your league....
and you were twenty thousand underneath the sea
Waving affections
You were out of my league
at a distance that I didn't want to see
wanted you nearer
and true affection floats
true affection sinks like a stone
I never felt so close
I never felt so all alone
I was out of your league....
and you were twenty thousand underneath the sea
Waving affections
You were out of my league
at a distance that I didn't want to see
wanted you nearer
i think these guys are indie from p-town, oregon! awesome, thanks for singing my thoughts... | | |

| i got this email from liv and it's got a couple of funny things:
1. Men are like .Laxatives ...... They irritate the crap out of you.
2. Men are like. Bananas . The older they get, the less firm they are.
3. Men are like Weather . Nothing can be done to change them.
4. Men are like ... Blenders You need One, but you're not quite sure why.
5. Men are like ... Chocolate Bars . Sweet, smooth, & they usually head right for your hips.
6. Men are like .. Commercials ?....... You can't believe a word they say.
7. Men are like Department Stores . Their clothes are always 1/2 off!
8. Men are like .....Government Bonds ?.... They take soooooooo long to mature.
9. Men are like ....Mascara . They usually run at the first sign of emotion.
10. Men are like Popcorn ... They satisfy you, but only for a little while.
11. Men are like Snowstorms . You never know when they're coming, how many inches you'll get or how long it will last.
12. Men are like .......Lava Lamps .. Fun to look at, but not very bright.
13. Men are like Parking Spots All the good ones are taken, the rest are handicapped.
I think my favorites are number 11 and 13, =)
I was talking to my friend last night and he kept suggesting that I find a guy up here already and the more I think about it, the more it turns me off. There is seriously no one up here that I've found intriguing and my life is filled with so much right now, I don't know how I'd even fit him in. Then he said, maybe you've filled your life up because you don't have someone, which made me wonder if that was true or not. I'm not sure, but I feel like all my interests and activities are all things that I've always wanted to do but couldn't because of school. It's about time that I've treated myself to these things! Everyday, I look forward to working out and running, cooking and eating my cooked goods, going to dance class, and reading at night before bed. I'd like to be able to continue to do all of this even if I had a guy, I don't ever want to compromise myself in a relationship anymore. I used to do that all the time, I was always so selfless and would put my happiness behind his. I believe that I've become independent enough to understand that I just won't stand for that anymore, he either fits into my life because he appreciates my lifestyle, or he doesn't. My standards have gotten even higher since I've moved up here but more importantly, since I've grown up a bit since I left L.A. If I thought that I was a picky ass bitch then, I'm much worse now and it scares me. I have a hard time figuring out which measuring spoons and organizational boxes I want to buy, how the hell am I going to find a guy that checks off all the new boxes on my list?
When I moved up here, I had this strange goal of being single for my first year up here. I didn't know if I was really going to stick to it or not because I had no idea what I was getting myself into when I left home. Now that I've been up here and have checked out the single scene, I've realized that it just doesn't exist up here and I will most likely reach my goal, regardless of if I want to or not. I think it'll be good though, I was pretty messed up when I left home and told myself that being alone would help me heal and really build myself up again from the floor up. It hasn't been a year yet, almost, but already I feel much better. My life and home are both very far away from becoming my ideal but it's all about progress. I just need a dining table already!!! But I'm a picky ass mofo and can't find anything that I can afford, blah, welcome to the story of my life. | | |
| man, it has been a while since i've written in this thing. so much has happened! let's see, sharon and i have been boarding every saturday for the past month and it has been absolutely amazing! we went to meadows at first and for our last time, this past saturday, we went to timberline and it was such a gorgeous day! it was 70 something degrees out and the sky was clear and blue and i got me a little goggles tan, =) it's okay though, no one to impress out here anyways! but ya, the ride was awesome because it finally clicked for me and i was carving and ahhhh! it was the greatest feeling! we ran to catch the last lift to the top of the mountain and the guys were nice enough to wait for us so we were literally the last people on the lift and so we had the whole mountain to ourselves! it was.....bliss!
i've been going to dance class for three weeks now and i'm having such a great time! i'm so glad that i finally signed up and stuck with it even though i sucked so hard at first! it took me a while to build up the courage but it's been so worth it, i'm so happy everytime i'm in class. i'm always looking forward to mondays and wednesdays now, it's great! i've got a whole schedule going on now and it feels wonderful. monday and wednesdays i go to dance class, then run afterwards, then cook dinner and chill out for the rest of the night. tuesdays and wednesdays i stay late at work and really get to get things done and just have some alone time away from the roommate, feels good also. then before i know it, it's friday! dancing is so much fun, i like all of the routines that we've learned so far and i can't wait to get better at it! i'm definitely not as coordinated as i was in high school 8 years ago!!!! we've danced to janet jackson's "so much betta" and bow wow and omarions "hey baby, jump off" so far and the routines have been so much fun!
i'm psychotic and i'm going to die but i signed up for a crazy ass marathon!!!! it's called hood to coast where we run from mt. hood to the oregon coast in two days and you basically stay up all night and ride in a van with the rest of your team and take turns running the whole route! i'm so scared cuz i'm not a runner AT ALL but i figured that this would be a great way for me to get my ass in shape already so i'm excited about that. i started training for it this past monday so i ran 2 miles on monday and gotta run four miles today. sweet!!!!! on monday, judy and i ran along the waterfront a little bit before dance class so we're planning on doing that again today. it was so gorgeous running out there, can't wait to do it again tonight!
i've been cooking a lot! it's such a joy of mine, i swear, it's my therapy. i love anything that has to do with food, =)
just found out that the family is coming to visit for mother's day weekend so i can't wait for that! gotta start figuring out where i'm going to take them and what we're going to do but most importantly, where we're going to go to eat!!!! this also means that i've gotta hurry up and get my place together! it's been so tore up since the roomie and i've gotta get it cleaned up before they come up! can't wait to make my place feel like home again!!!! i just bought some new track lights for my hallway so that hopefully i can install myself and not get fried, but more importantly, get rid of those hideous lights in my hallway! then i bought some stuff to re-mount my mirror in the hallway so i've gotta do that this weekend. plus i want to put up a mirror and some hooks in my bathroom but i've gotta measure things out and make sure that's what i want to do! sharon is going home for the weekend so i've got a lot of things that i want to do. gotta go to the farmers market on saturday because i've been waiting for farmers markets to come back for the whole winter! when the summer hits, i don't even want to go to a regular store anymore, just want to get all of my stuff from farms and farmers markets! then i want to go to vintage stores and hunt for a dining table and chairs, =) hopefully i'll find something cool!
sharon has decided to go back home so her last day is may 2nd so i'll be on my own after that. i don't want another roommate, i've decided. it'll be good to have my place all to myself again, can't wait!
i don't know what else, work has been super busy but that's good, i've been working on a good chunk of stuff. a trail outsole that i did is coming out at the end of the month and my first mens and women's uppers are coming out next spring! can't wait! finally, my first designs will hit the market, the moment every designer works towards. i hope they don't come out looking like poop! i was in the library the other day and was flipping through our footwear catalogs and when i flipped the page for holiday 08, i saw my outsole. it made me smile, =)
alright, i should get back to work. check out this bowl, i'm in love with it and am tempted to try to re-create it myself. i think that i would find pleasure in melting an army of men, haha. i think it would make a sweet ass fruit bowl, =) then i like the little red side table thingie, would love to put something like that in between my front door and fireplace but doubt i can find something like that, we'll see!
ciao!

| i just read the best article on msn, check it out!
http://articles.moneycentral.msn.com/Investing/HomeMortgageSavings/TooSuccessfulForAMate.aspx?GT1=33009
so i don't want to sound like a cocky bitch and give off the impression that i think i'm too successful for a man or anything, that's not what i mean at all when i write about that article. it's mainly because i do notice that i have become super picky about everything in my life and wonder if there is really someone out there for me anymore. my standards for everything, down to the styling and value of my vegetable peeler in my kitchen, matters so much now, it's almost impossible for me to find stuff that i like anymore.
i took their stupid "are you too picky about men" test and this is what they said:
Realistic.
You are neither too picky nor too indiscriminate--in fact, you're unhappily married friends secretly envy you. Don't lower your (already very reasonable) standards and keep your head up. Remember that there are no such things as "soul mates"--there are just two people who want the same things at the same time. It might take longer than you'd hoped, but if you keep on rolling the dice and stick to your quality standards, you'll find what you're looking for. You're already complete by yourself.
so i guess i'm not as psychotic as i thought i was since they said i'm realistic still. i don't know, i do have high standards but it also doesn't take that much to make me happy, i'm not materialistic and i don't need someone who is loaded. i just need respect and some lovin'!
but that last part gives me hope, "i'm already complete by myself." i don't know if i can say complete, but i'm doing alright on my own. i try to not think about shit like this but i can't help but to every so often since i'm surrounded by it up here! everyone is with someone, even the dorky girl from asia who is annoying as hell has a man! damn i'm mean...i'm going to be single forever just for saying that...
