Antoinette Weekend

This past weekend was Antoinette weekend; which means doing everything Antoinette would like to do. We had two days of the “I will wear this If you wear that” game. This she found very entertaining. I wore several dresses that my grandmother would wear. All of the dresses had ruffles, floral patterns, and shoulder pads. Imagine that type of dress. She also picked out an outfit that had ruffles similar to Little Bo Peep’s undergarments. The top had a blue tie-dye look paired with a light pink skirt. Both the top and the skirt had the Little Bo Peep theme. To bring this look together it was paired with black leggings. These were not just any leggings they were faux black leather leggings that reached my angles. To describe this outfit as horrendous would be a great understatement. I did have her try on a few disastrous outfits as well. It was worth it.

I had my body measured this week and discovered that I lost 1.5 pounds. This amazed me given that I had not worked out since I was sick. I thought that I had gained all of the weight I had lost back. Yes I was very stunned that I had lost a pound.

Work has not been the most fun as of late. Though there is the exception of one of my coworkers. This week for dinner Antoinette made many dishes that involved rice. (I love rice! Particularly white rice I love the most!) My favorite dish was this vegetables and rice combination. The vegetables were cooked in the rice with seasoning. I loved it so much that I had to save the leftovers and eat it the next night.

The weekend of March 19 thru March 21 was Layla weekend. I did not take full advantage of my weekend like Antoinette did. (Though I will do so next time it is Layla weekend.) On my weekend we watched The Ramen Girl. I found the movie interesting (probably because it was set in Tokyo, Japan). I tried to find more movies like this with not any success. Most of the suggestions were cooking movies; which I can understand. Since The Ramen Girl is based mostly upon Brittany Murphy learning how to excel at cooking ramen. Though the similar qualities I was looking for was comedic cooking movies that took place in Japan. As I stated earlier I have not had much luck.

In addition this weekend Antoinette and I had a pedicure. Particularly I do not like others to touch my feet. To have a pedicure seemed repulsive to me, but to be honest it was not that bad. Plus the woman who gave me the pedicure wore gloves; which made the entire process more bearable. We also had a fill in. Two weeks ago when I had a full set, they were painted hot pink. (A pink that Antoinette called Barbie Pink) This week they were painted Lime Green.

Bitchfest

Warning: The following post contains strong language.

Let me begin by saying I apologize sincerely for the language that is in this post. I tried to avoid it, but found that I could not. Last weekend I moved into my new place with Antoinette as my roommate! I really am fond of living here. Freedom!!! This being reason I did not have a post last week. I was very busy with packing, moving, and followed by unpacking (correction: Still unpacking). The only process I was not fond of was packing and unpacking. It seems to be a pointless action.

The language… I find that I am easily annoyed with people (especially customers). Customer service is a large portion of my job. It has been for five years. Since I have been working in this field for so long I try to be exceptionally nice to everyone. Moreover I feel that if I cannot help you I should to find someone who can. What do I receive in return? Lies topped with attitude sprinkled with. sarcasm and a large side of being an ass. What angers me most is that I try a great deal to help. In return I receive attitudes from sullen spoiled brats. However, some customers are an absolute delight to see. Yet I feel as though the brats overpower the delights. I am still trying to help everyone, but I feel that I am becoming a little bitter.

“If you want something done right… do it yourself” I normally do not agree with this quote. Why? Because I feel that if you are patient you can teach someone to accomplish anything. Or that is what I thought. This is not always accurate. I have been attempting to teach someone how to accomplish the most simple of tasks. I have explained one particular task so thoroughly that I am tired of hearing myself explain it. I deduce the key reason I am tired of explaining it is because every time I receive attitude. I hate hearing deep sighs. I hate hearing them especially when I am trying to explain something to you that is helpful. When you do this it makes me want to slap you! Either figure it out yourself or stop acting like a spoiled bitch!

The color of my hair is platinum blonde with a dark brown shade underneath. As you might have assumed the natural color of my hair is not blonde. The dark brown shade is in fact my natural color. Since I have been dying my hair blonde for seven years I have decided to have a change. The next time I visit my hairstylist I will tell her to dye it my natural color. Very drastic, yes, this decision has me a little nervous. It Lead me to compose a pros and cons list, pros won. The key reason being it saves money. The nervous feeling is mainly because my skin is fair, one shade darker than that of a porcelain doll. I feel that the color might wash me out.

Why do irresponsible people have children? If you cannot control the issues in your life before children; how is it an intelligent decision to have children? Who have their own issues! Today I was watching how most parents interacted with their children. They tend to ignore them almost completely, and allow them touch everything. This is convenient for me because it leads to computers crashing. Why? Because the computer monitors are nailed to the wall at a toddler’s height. In addition, it is even more unfortunate to have the computer monitors as touch screens. Therefore, it is a picnic for me every day to fix them numerous times throughout the day.

200 Pounds Beauty and Sophie's Revenge

I apologize for not posting a blog last week. I was very tired on Sunday. Monday I was sick; which became worse throughout the week. To be honest I am still sick as I write this blog. However, I feel much better today than the other days. I went to the doctor yesterday and he told me that I have a severe sinus infection. He told me that since I thought it was a cold and was treating it as such was the reason it was so severe. He also told me that I needed antibiotics or it would only become worse. Therefore I decided to have a shot and take the antibiotics.

A couple of weeks ago I watched this anime series entitled “Honey and Clover.” I found it very amusing and entertaining. There were many scenes where I found myself laughing hysterically. However, I was disappointed that only two seasons were made. Though I did find a movie that was adapted from the series; it was okay.

Recently Antoinette and I watched 200 Pounds Beauty and Sophie’s Revenge. 200 Pounds Beauty is a Korean Romantic Comedy and is utterly hilarious! Antoinette even told me that the main actor in 200 Pounds Beauty would get one baby from her. (It is an inside joke between us. Both of us would never have children, and by saying how many babies a guy would get out of her. Is stating how attractive she finds that guy). This made me positively giddy! I give the movie five stars! Sophie’s Revenge is a Chinese Romantic Comedy. It was also very entertaining and very enthusiastic! I give it also five stars! I wish I could find movies similar to these two movies!

My song writing has currently been placed on hold. This fact I very much dislike. My brain is currently on repeat stating “I need to stop wasting time and do something productive!” I have this thought every day all day. Yes I think that I am my own worst enemy. Although I suppose it is a good thing because it paranoids me until I start doing something productive. Nevertheless, I did finish a rough draft for a song, but it still needs a great deal of modifications. I guess it is some progress.

Great News… I think within the next two weeks I will be living in my new place! Yes I know it is very exciting! I will be moving to a town I have never lived in before! Moreover I will be moving in with a close friend of mine! Yes I am very excited! In addition I have a red bedroom! Looovvveee it!

I am very disappointed in myself. Why? Well I have tried to work out numerous times while I have been sick. Unfortunately, it always ends the same it only last for about five to ten minutes. Every time I experience headaches followed by nausea; which has me stopping the work out every time. Therefore I think I have gained some weight this past week. I am not sure because I have been too afraid to find out. Ignorance is bliss… sometimes.
