Appearance

On 4/15/2010, I went for an interview at a cosmetic store for a position as a sales associate. I was surprised to hear that I can't wear glasses. I do understand why they would prefer their sales associates not to wear glasses but I can't understand why it's a requirement that I do NOT wear glasses. I also sort of understand why restaurants dislike for their waitresses or waiters to wear glasses, especially if it's a Korean BBQ place but I don't see why that's a requirement.

Well, I've checked online and I see that the cosmetic store is still hiring so I'm assuming that I didn't get the job. They are still posting an ad daily since the day I went to the interview. Oh well... I guess I don't need to rush to get contact lenses. Anyway, I can't afford to get contact lenses or new glasses. The last time I went to get my glasses was in March 2007 so I'm waaayyyy overdue for my eye exam. I feel like I'm going blind!

I Need A Break Away From Here

I wished I could've joined my sis on her trip to San Diego. I really need a break from all the drama and BS. When I'm working, I never have the time to go on a vacation. Not even a mini-vacation! But when I have the time, I don't have the money. Boohoo!

Designer Eugenia Kim Brings High Fashion to Target

Designer Eugenia Kim Brings High Fashion to Target

"Everyone can wear a hat -- you just have to find the right one," says Kim, 35. Her high-end Eugenia Kim hats average $200! So I'm happy to hear that they're available at Target. But when I checked online on Target.com, I saw that the designs weren't too pretty but I guess that's why it's so cheap.

This Is Me

Love this song. I know, it's a song from "The Barbie Diaries" DVD movie. But try listening to the lyrics. I can totally relate to it. Constantly falling forward.

Everyone has got a secret side

A winding path up to a door that's open wide

You think you know me but I'm changin' all the time

 'Cause if I wanna be sweet

If I wanna be wild

If I wanna cry like a child

If I pick up the world in the palm of my hand
I guess that's just who I am


Chorus:


This is me
Can't ignore it
Reaching out
Breaking free
Constantly
Falling forward
Yeah, I'm just goin' for it
This is me


Sometimes life is a confusing thing
And when I talk it seems like no one's listening
Try to be an angel, but I just can't find my wings


'Cause I wanna be sweet
But I wanna be wild
If I wanna find my own style
So, I make a mistake, then I do it again
But I do it the best way that I can

*Chorus*


More than what you see


Finding out who I can be


*Chorus*



This is me...

Extinction...

This is extinction for you.
You're the kind of person,
You think you're better than everyone.

I don't want anything from you.

I don't want anything from you.
This is extinction for you.


Exactly what I want to say to you. But I can't... because no matter what, we're family. Again, I am not going to go into details on who I'm saying this to. But for some people, they know who I'm talking about. If you're the majority that doesn't know wth I'm talking about, I'm sorry but I can't fill you in. Too personal.

When asked by someone or some website or for some profile about the type of music I liked, I would write something like "Music is my life", "I love most types of music" or "almost everything but depends on my mood". Well, I now know that I need to change that. I didn't know there were so many types of music AND also so many types that I dislike or hate. I hate heavy metal that is just like loud noise. But I do love rock and alternative. But I don't like some alternative rock that sounds like they were made in the funky 80s. LOL! I do not like "The Soft Pack". I have listened to this song and another one called "Pull Out". 25 seconds into the song, I desparately wanted to turn it off. But I tried skipping forward, hoping it'll get better. I apologize to all the TSP fans but I do not like their songs.

Cynthia Vincent line for Target

COMING: The Cynthia Vincent line for Target includes gladiator wedges in yellow, left, $29.99; and African-print-inspired wedges, $29.99.

All the shoes in the Cynthia Vincent for Target collection are priced under $30.
The unfortunate thing is... I saw this article and found out about this collection but when I searched on Target's website today, the yellow gladiator wedge has been sold out already. Not that I wanted YELLOW wedges...
