DWTS - Week Two

Not as exciting as last week, but still a nice performance.
Love the Quickstep with "Black Horse And The Cherry Tree"

LensCrafters Purchase

I finally decided to buy new glasses!!

Had a choice of:

2 pairs of glasses for $99.99 from Sears
(which was lacking in selection)

2 pairs of glasses for $88.99 from JC Penny
(lacking in selection as well)

20% insurance coverage from Kaiser Optical
(same selection problem)

40-50% off Frames from LensCrafters
(soo much to choose from)

I CHOSE LENS CRAFTERS ~

The glasses that I saw in January was still there!! This time it was on sale from $139.95 down to $124.98

And on top of that ~ I had a 40% discount!!

I knew that the lenses/anti-refelective/scratch-resistance extras would probably cost me more ... and it did ... but I thought that it was worth it.

Will see (ha) in two weeks!!

DWTS - Season 12

I'm for team Maks and Kristie!!




Wow!! Kristie was amazing!! And I just love how they were able to Cha-cha to "Forget You" !!

Eight

A couple days ago, someone came up to me at the desk and said:

"you've been working here for a long time"

I said yes, It'll be 8 years on Saturday.

For some reason, whenever someone says that to me, I feel kinda sad. That I really shouldn't be here. That I should be working somewhere else.

But I'm still here. At least I have a job right?!?

I know people who are still desperately looking for a job, I'm really lucky that I've been employed this long and that I'm making money to pay the bills. But I want to do more.

I need my bliss.

Eight years was too long not to be where my bliss is at.

Mystery Shopping + Paypal + Gold Starbucks Card = Happy

I finally got paid for the Mystery Shopping I did in February!! I remember getting an email from Starbucks that I could reload from my PayPal Account.

Whoo Hoo!!

Another Cafe Mocha & Pops for me!

What To Do With A Refund

I kinda procastinated with filing my taxes and now that I know how much I'm getting, I'm debating whether or not to:

1. Save Money
2. Shop for shoes
3. Shop for EXPENSIVE glasses
4. Shop for Formal dress
5. Take a vacation

Do all of those?

Spring Forward

I just realized that It'll be dark out tomorrow morning when I leave my apartment for work at 6:00am :-(

Hope my sleep pattern won't be off!

Tiramisu & Rocky Road Pops!

THANK YOU Starbucks for your Tribute Days!!

Well, I didn't make it to Starbucks until past 5pm on Thursday ~ But on Friday I ordered a Cafe Mocha then tried the Tiramisu Pops ~ YUMMY!!



On Saturday ... ordered Cafe Mocha again and tried the Rocky Road Pops ~ which I think tasted much better!!



Someone in front of me declined the free "Petite Treat" ... so she turned around and asked us if we wanted hers ... ARGH ... I wanted to say YES!! I wanted to try the Birthday Cake Pop!! Just felt embarrassed ... no one else took her up on her offer.

The Adjustment Bureau

Ok. I had no intention of watching this movie until i saw a commercial with reviews stating that it was a romantic movie.

Really? I thought this was more of a sci-fi.

So I decided to watch it. Now I'm glad that I saw that commercial. But was that by "chance" ... or was it a group of individuals that made my remote control stop at a particular channel so I could see the commercial??

Hmm. Something to think about.

I was pleasantly surprised. I liked it a whole lot. It reminded me of an old Twilight Zone episode: A Matter Of Minutes. I remember loving the idea that there is some kind of supernatural aspect of "time".

"I knew I left my keys here somewhere"

Anyways. It was a romantic movie. I loved the scene where the bureau was talking about how Elise and David keep getting pulled away from each other and somehow they belong together, thats why they still keep finding each other.

Romantic, huh.

Starbucks Tribute Days

I don't know if I'll make it today, but I'm going for sure on Friday and Saturday!!

The King's Speech

I wish I watched this movie before the Oscars!!

I'm happy that it won. I thought The Social Network was a good movie, but I think that because it was about Facebook, people were hoping that it will win.

I had wanted Jeff Bridges to win Best Actor because he was wonderful in True Grit. Now that I saw this movie, Colin Firth really deserved the win.

Congratulations to Tom Hooper also!! I'm glad that he won Best Directing...I still wish Ben Affleck was nominated though.

Can't wait to buy this on DVD.
