Detached
I feel detached to the world. I used to feel like I know what's going on, what's the latest news, coolest trend, biggest scandal. Now I barely feel a part of this world. Maybe it's a good thing to have less distractions, and actually live life. We're constantly surrounded by information, much of it is useless. I suppose part of growing older is knowing how to select what kind of information to receive. Information and resources are useless unless you can benefit from it, from which it becomes knowledge, and when practiced, it becomes real life experience. I am beginning to select my info-intake amount, downsizing only to those that is necessary. A lot less junk in my cranium. Slowly detaching myself from the big world, and growing into my own.

I ♥ umbrellas
Love the rainy days, where raindrops fall lightly on the umbrella and dances away. It's suppose to rain on friday, aren't we lucky :)

Goodbye summer, you're almost gone. I will make the best of the following weeks.

I'll stop the world and melt with you
Things are coming together! Busy days don't seem so hectic, and happiness is amplified. So many new and exciting experiences. I wish I could melt and evaporate into air particles and be everywhere.
Come friends, let's see each other. Y'all have been missed plenty :)

Feeling Super
I feel on top of the world. Had a good day today, and to top it off, district 9 was killer. Who can resist cute alien forms? OMG it was an orgasmic concoction with aliens and robots. What more can a girl ask for? I WIN TODAY.

How hot can it get?
It appears the heat must be broken, or someone turned up the heat yesterday. We started to feel a bit hot at 11:30pm, but we did not think much of it. Now it is 2am, and I cannot sleep a wink. I have been awoken by the strange heat. I feel awful. You know that feeling you get when you've got a fever and your whole body is burning up from inside out? This is how I feel. I have a tummy ache, a head ache, throat ache, back ache, and most of all, I feel HOT. So i got out of bed, turn that mother down and turn on the closest thing to air conditioning, the odd looking wall unit of a fan. It is currently on low, I did not want to wake my partners with it running on high. As I can tell, they are also suffering from this heat, opening the windows seemed to have no effect, as tonight it is warm outside. So let's hope this fan will start to work its way in in a couple more minutes, or else I need to be up in 4 hours. Oh please, just shoot me with ice now.

Day 2 in Edmonton
So evidently our plane could not land due to low clouds or fog or whatnot, our plane was delayed for about 2-3 hours. Which gave us no time to reach the convention center in time for set up. So we checked into the hotel and went for lunch :> too bad we didn't have enough time/energy to go to west edmonton mall. Anywho. the next morning we woke super early to reach the exhibition center at 8am. With only an hour to set up, everyone worked real fast like little elves on Christmas eve's eve :) Today was an eye opener and a real good learning experience. We got our first order! That's something to be happy about. And we handed out some catalogues and gave out business cards. Hopefully we will hear back from them! Now I have swollen feet and legs and need to elevate them for the blood to gain proper circulation! Forgot to bring eye makeup remover, and had to wash it off with soap. My eyes are now red, thanks. hahaha. Anywho, no makeup for me tomorrow! Horray. Hopefully we'll acquire more business acquaintances. Only 3 more days until success! MUWHAHHA.

See y'all in 5 days :)

So I was digging up some old photographs when I came upon this photo!
This is dated summer 2004, most of my hair has grown back! I like how I looked so tanned :) I miss that shirt, it made everything felt more summery. Miss that skirt, it was so breezy and slutty hahaha. Miss the necklace, the chain broke, I guess I can still replace it. Miss the ring, my finger got less fat, and one day, it flew off when i was removing my ski gloves... :( hahahaha.
Now I am about to take a short sleep, and off to Edmonton!

I am not amused.

WTF. Everyone needs to take anger management and stress management courses. Me included.

The Broken Clock Is A Comfort
oh, how I wish all the clocks were broken.
Maybe the world would stop spinning out of control.

Deadlines, schedules, timeframe, not my forte. But I've got deadlines like no tomorrow.
The reward will be sweet success. choo-choo, I think I can I think I can.
Let's do this, bitch.

Gift for me
Sometimes you need to shower yourself with gifts. That's what I am doing!!! hahaha. I plan on buying a new watch. The lame blue one I have is, well, lame. haha. I've been eyeing this Philippe Starck one....muwhahah. After the busiest part past, hopefully I will find time to purchase it. As we head into mid August, it kind of saddens me. One, summer is almost coming to an end, though I adore fall wardrobe :) Two, I am suppose to be on my way to Europe by now. I guess that won't be in my agenda anytime soon. Life takes turns and turns, and how did I end up here I'll never know, but it's for the best of it all. Perhaps this trip will be postponed for a year. But nevertheless take a mini vacation during September, because I deserve it!

Learning to relax
In other words, time to splurge on myself and pamper Annie Chen. Muwhahhaha. Need a little time out, and make myself feel better. So I've booked a hair appointment in 2 weeks, which by then, I'll be finished the busiest part of August. That is something to look forward to. Also I am needing a facial, my face has been stressed out with work and inconsistent sleep patterns. Stupid bladder infection keeps coming and going. Never ending lower back aches. Good thing I'm seeing my chiropractor this weekend, that ought to release some tension. Lack of exercise, haven't ran in oh god knows how long.... I am guilty. I need to vacuum my room, but our vacuum is stupid and smells. :( Piles and piles of work. Horrid dreams, midnight heartburns, probably caused by unforeseen pressure as deadlines close in. Time to make some adjustment in lifestyle to maintain a somewhat healthy routine. I sound like a mess, but I am okay. I am okay. I am getting a facial. HEHEHHE.

How to fit two 4'X4' foamcores into a PT cruiser?
It takes some thought process, some rough eye estimate and a lot of trial and error. Try the backseat, fail. Try the trunk, why is it so goddamn big. Put the seats down. Nope. Lift the seat up. Nope. Lift the seat and move it up to the front passenger seat. YES. PUSH PUSH PUSH. TA DA! On days like today I wish I were a 6'2 man with a big ass pickup truck. I actually felt somewhat helpless and stranded in the parking lot for about 10 minutes. I wanted to cry because I lacked the super powers to shrink items. Let's await the bruises to kick in tonight :)
