Yeah, yeah, it’s a gorgeous day. I prefer the park empty. I’m selfish, meh.

Hello Goodbye

Sat, 01 Jan 2011 03:28:27 -0500

Bye 2010, it was a pleasure to know you. You’ve treated me well and made up for your very lame friend, 2009.

Hello 2011, you’re an odd-numbered year so already we’re starting off on a bad foot, but I’ll be mature and give you a shot hoping you’ll prove my prejudice wrong. But as a warning, you better be kind or I’ll kick your ass.

Hey Darwin

People who don’t say sorry/thank you,

People who stiff tips for no reason,

People who think it’s okay to walk into you, then look at you like you’re at fault,

People who push through crowds because they’re too good to wait like the rest of us…

Why do you still exist? Where’s this “natural selection” I heard so much about? Work your mojo, Darwin.

this cliche or that?

physical manifestations of stress/anxiety:

vomiting

piercing stomach pains (which i’ve self-diagnosed as possible ulcer)

headache

can’t figure out which cliche i should follow: “quitters never win” or “life is too short to be miserable” — asdlfkjasdfasd;fj is the only thing i can muster up at this point.

Blogging to save my life

Wed, 21 Apr 2010 19:22:00 -0400

Well kinda.

See, there’s a giant creeper who sometimes gets on the same bus as I do. And he always has to sit next to me, even when there are empty rows. And some time last year, he crossed the line by trying to hold my hand, not once, but twice! Um, sir, NOT OKAY.

So now I’m trying to keep occupied so I don’t just sit here quietly as prey for his pedophilic ass.*

He’s married (detective work revealed wedding band) and just has that general look of a perv. If he ever guest-stars on SVU, he would be the guilty one. And I hope benson & stabler totally beat him up.

Anyway, I’ve also discovered recently that he works close to my office because I’ve seen him in the Duane Reade next door multiple times. Either that or he’s a giant stalker too. Actually, I would not put that past him. He just has that look about him - the one that says “hey I like to hold your hand on buses & follow you to your office duane reade & maybe murder you.”

AND he’s clearly not opposed to cheating! Murderer and adulterer, what a scumbag.

Suffice it to say NJ Transit is not a primo choice for me to find a love connection. World is sending me some winners right now.

Sigh.

*okay I know I’m over 18, but I’m probably not wrong about his deviant tendencies anyway.

Mo money, mo problems (not that I know this)

Just made a pseudo budget & it is beyond bleak. Will I be able to move into city at current salary/student loan debt? I know the answer already & I don’t like it.

Also just wanted to give a shout-out to the following:

- NJ Transit for increasing fares 25%
- Me for losing my bus pass (so I need to buy another one for rest of April)
- Hoboken for breaking my car (but really me bc I wedged my car into a corner wall, resulting in a seriously dented & heavily scratched car door)

Well 2010, we had a nice run. 4 months isn’t too shabby. Just try not to completely beat me down in the next 8 months, k?

amen, brother.

amen, brother.

summer schoolin'

Wed, 14 Apr 2010 10:32:34 -0400

since i can’t get away to paris anytime soon, i’ve been toying with the idea of taking continuing education classes after work.

basic accounting? why not?!

food studies? OKAY!

i really miss math and want to do something there (don’t ask) — my left brain needs some stimulation.

with rebecca’s encouragement, i think i’m going to register for classes at the new school.

YAY FOR NEW PROJECTS!

cravings galore

flatbread topped with hummus then caramelized onions, then arugula… maybe some feta on top.

i want to walk along the champs-elysees and sit at cafes and eat macarons all day and make fun of silly americans (obviously, i’d have shed this identity by the time i land at the charles de gaulle airport) and master the art of french chic-ness (and perhaps the french braid too) and meet french boys and wear berets…

it’s getting really difficult to let go of this dream lately. i just want to transplant my life for a year.

“We have only one story. All novels, all poetry, are built on the never-ending contest in ourselves of good and evil. And it occurs to me that evil must constantly respawn, while good, while virtue, is immortal. Vice has always a new fresh young face, while virtue is venerable as nothing else in the world is.”

Things that annoy me - #3

People using the emergency exit (& thereby setting off the blaring alarm) when exiting the subway.

There is no way you, sir, are saving a life by avoiding the turnstiles, so spare my sanity & eardrums at 9 am.

Big people who don’t realize they’re big.*

Okay, if you’re large (whether or not you’re also in charge is irrelevant), do not act as if your size is negligent. Meaning:

do not wedge yourself in that teeny free spot on subway seat.
do not try to push past me when there is little space to do so.

This has nothing to do with hating on fatties in general (uh hello, look who’s talking) — just quit physically getting all up in my grill.

*this also applies to thin women who carry absurdly large purses.
