For my Beginning Sewing class we had to make a stupid reversible vest as one of our class projects. I am not a vest wearing person plus I had missed so many classes that I was playing catch up. So I chose the SIMPLEST vest pattern and the closet fabrics I could find at the fabric store and raced with the clock so I could finish this damn thing by Finals day. I ended up copying what my friend did exactly so it would be easy for me. And thankfully I'm the smallest size so it's a little easier to measure, cute, and sew. *whew*

But gaaah! Its so simple its ugly and what was I think buying black satin for one side and purple tweed on the other. Omg. This is like throw up clothes.

So I told yobo I made it specifically for him and that I would be really happy if he wore it this week when I give it to him. I showed it to him on skype and he asked why it's so small and if I was SURE it would fit him. Then he said he's pretty sure if I can fit it, that he would not be able to. I'm an XXS while he's a M/L. But I INSISTED that I made it for him and that it's supposed to a tight fit.

Then he asked what he's supposed to wear purple tweed vest with. So frickin' gullible. Lol.

Of course he also said how much he loves it. Hahahahahahahaha. What a liar!

But I don't know what to write.

Oh I know! So I've been at this salon for 3 months now and things are going well. My client book is so full now a days. Too full. It was so full yesterday that the owner called the receptionist and scolded her for booking me too many appointments because she's scared I'll burn out too quickly.

I'm glad the other artists there are not noticing or caring that I'm taking their clients from them. Not on purpose. But I have a better.. how you say... "flick of the wrist." And clients notice the results after they've been with me once so they switch over to me and stay with me.

Too bad I don't come with a great personality like my co-workers. I'm nice but I'm quiet, I actually prefer my clients fall asleep during their appointments. I'm not loud and warm and funny and excitable like my co-workers. And in the high end salon I work at, clients love that kind of stuff. Clients will book their appointment with me but they spend their lounge time (waiting area) talking to the other artists. I just stand thwre awkwardly smiling.  I also don't pry into peoples lives or give opinions. But I hear my co workers and they talk about EVERYTHING with our clients including work and family and even sex! And my co workers are like, "oh hell no! You better .. dah dahh dah dah!" I would never have the galls to tell someone what to do (except to Won Choe. He thinks I'm super bossy. hhahaahhaah <3 <3 <3 ). Once in a while I'll come up with the chipper and try to ask about their day or travel plans. But it's awkward when we talk for a little bit then things go quiet, I feel like if you start off chatty, you have be chatty for the whole hour.

Something for me to work on. *sigh* I'm just afraid I'll come off as fake. I  feel weird pretending to be someone I'm not. Maybe I just need to be more "in the know" with current events so I have more to talk about. Or I need to live more so I have more experience to talk about.

I'm not a fun person.. but at least I'm genuine?!?

Speaking of change.. okay, so no one was speaking about it but me. Who cares. My blog. My rules. Hmph.

I used to want this SUPER huge 400+ persons wedding in an all white wedding venue with crystal flowers and all the guest have to wear white while I squeeze into a double 00 Vera Wang.. okay fine, I've always dreamed of having a Kim Kardashian wedding.. hahaha. For the record, I had this vision before her wedding. It was just nice seeing it come together on television. Ha!  I would have invited anyone and everyone and make it party of the century.

But now that my boyfriend and I are seriously talking about moving and getting married and buying a ring (ahh!)

I just want to get engaged, get pregnant, and have a super small family only wedding dinner at like Alexanders or House of Prime Rib or something ridiculous like that. 8 months pregnant bride. So darn cute in their flow-y empire waist dress. That's totally me. Pregnant peoples btw are the chillest most calm people in the world.

What else is different about me now? What other changes...?

have been fighting sooo much lately. We fight about EVERYTHING including totally ridiculous things like: plastic surgery, hair color, engagement ring -man made or natural- , and I don't know what other things that no one else fights about except us.

My patience is zero with him lately, at a drop of a hat I blow up and say really mean things without thinking (so mature, I know -____-). And on top of that he's been the calm one who calls me up later and maturely resolves our issue. Not that I'm keeping score or anything...

But hello! When did this hot headed Alpha male Korean and I do a 180?! I remember in the beginning of our relationship, he would always get mad at me to the max in like 60 seconds. And I would have to calmly call him back and resolve things. That was actually a big red flag for me about him.. Am I really going to raise children with this angry man?!

But look at us, 3 years later and I'm the psycho Vietnamese b**** and he's the calm one. What is going on?

What else is going to change about us?

Btw, I love how much he has grown as a person. And I am gong to freaking pat myself on the pat for being the positive shining light in his life... hahahaha. <3 <3 <3

I think one of the reason why I'm not so opinionated about much is because I know I'm not a perfect person and I don't want to one day be all "anti-drug!" and then the next day smoking weed or something... Not that I would EVER smoke weed. But what if my best friend forever smokes weed, then I don't want to be all anti-drug on them.

Anyhow, the point of this post is because this beezey I know who freaking stepped all over me and other people to get to the top, which she is no where near in my opinion, wrote a FB status about how she hates people who uses other people and steps on them to get to the top... I couldn't help but laugh at what a hypocrite she is. She has the biggest reputation of using people and stepping on people and being a shady ass mother f******. The stories I hear about her at the hairdresser!!! But she of course of all people.. goes and write a status like that. It's always the sinners who casts the first stone.

I wonder..  does she REALLY think she's innocent and only a victim? I mean, don't tell me.. when she's being shady she goes like brain dead.. then when other people are shady to her, suddenly it's such an injustice and she must seek justice for the world. How does that work? Or does she hate herself for who she is? but continue to be that way anyways...? People are so weird... no sense of self reflection. It's so damn embarrassing.

Anyhow.. not to be all negative nancy. All my past posts are soo negative. I'm actaully a really positive person and in love with everything in my life. That's my problem, I am in love with too much in my life. I'm so vomit blood busy lately. And I don't want to give anything up! Who cares if I have too much on my plate. I love EVERYTHING!! hahaa. that's why I haven't written anything in a long time.

1. I hate paying for bottle service at the club. It's so expensive and I don't even drink. But I guess it's worth it because we get our own space. I only party with girls so we usually get put at a table that's already been paid for. But when I have to pay for bottle myself because it's my party, I always get buyers remorse. Like for like $700 I could have bought soooooooooooo much more. Like designer shoes, or like 10 new outfits from Forever21, or a vacation to SoCal, or, or, or, or.. you get the point.

2. For the most part I get along with everyone. But there are people who I think are spawned from the devil himself. That no matter in what light or angle I look at them, I cannot overlook what a bad person they are. I know no one is perfect, but I'm talking about people that I cannot find any redeeming qualities. These people I simply avoid in my life. What bothers me.. is the people who ARE in their lives. People who are perfectly good people who I like. And I wonder.. do they not see how terrible the other person is? Do they not care? Are they secretly bad people too? Because I can't see how someone would stand the said terrible person in the first place.

3. My time of the month REALLY throws me in a funk. Last week I was sooo excited and beaming at all the big and exciting opportunities coming up and brainstorming for more. This week I feel soooo freaking behind and dreading all the shit I have to do. Why did I sign up for much!?

Hope I feel better next week

After some wonderful xangans left comments on how to fix my ant problem, I decided to do it RIGHT AWAY!

So apparently ant colonies have these scout ants who go exploring first and they don't like the smell of lemons! Yay! Organic and safe resolution! I was so happy because I hated spraying Raid in the kitchen.

Anyhow, I felt kinda silly doing it. Kind of shamanist. I rolled a lemon and cut it up and squeezed the juice. Mixed a bit of water and rubbed that over all kitchen counter tops, tables, and around the rims of all the trashcans & compost bins. I felt like I was blessing the damn place. Then I shaved up the lemon peel into small chunks and spread it all over the kitchen while announcing, "Nobody move these okay! It's not trash! It's to rid of the ants."

Then I did a lemon dance and prayed the ants away. Okay, fine so I didn't do that part but I felt like I should have.

I don't particularly like the smell of lemon but I choose lemon over ants any day!

I'll report back on how it turns out!   But very excited right now!

No duh...

But you have to admit for the most part I am so happy go lucky. My life is blessed, no doubt. But there are days where I feel like EVERYTHING sucks. Today is one of those days! So this is my post on things that make me cringe

1. Ants. WHYTF is there soooo many damn ants who keep coming back? Even after we set up ant traps and Raid and clean every damn surface and dish and chopstick with soap and water and .. WHY!? Ughhh!! LEAVE US ALONE!! We never had this problem before, but these last few weeks there are just trails and trail and trails of ants in the kitchen. Driving me effin' crazy!

2. With all the technology going on .. why do people still ask me questions like.. what bus to take somewhere? 1st off, I never take the bus, why are you asking me? 2. If you can email me the question, then you can just google it Stop being lazy, I cannot spoon feed you information like that. I makes me think you are lazy and I am not impressed.

3. I work in the wedding industry but I personally do not know anyone who got married simply because it's rare for us 23 yr old people to get married. So I forever feel young. Then in the last month alone, 6 people I personally know MY age are engaged. And I'm like WTF! When did I get so old?!

Lol.. I took too long, I forgot all the things that irritate me. I guess life is REALLY good now a days.

Have a great one all!

Seeing as I finished my Life as a Cosmetology Student, here is the beginning of my new series: Life as a Fashion Student.

We finished our first project last week, tee-shirts! Mine came out 2 sizes too big but it's still the cutest one in the class! I went out and bought freaking hot pink Hello Kitty print fabric with black ribbed trimming. Better than all the super boring one colored fabric everyone else brought. Har har.

For our second project, we had to go out and buy our own patterns to make draw string pants or skirts. A pattern is basically a map of the pieces of fabric you are going to cut out and then sew together for whatever clothinng you are making. Like the instructions manual for making a particular piece of clothing. For our tee-shirt project, the pattern was given to us by our teachers. 

Now I do not blink at spending money on crafts.. but then I go to the fabric store today flipping through the pattern books (like an old grandma) and patterns for some lousy skirts are like $15!! WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?! With the cost of fabric, and knowing me I'll want nice fabric, it'll be like a $20 skirt. What the hell? I can buy like 2 skirts at Forever 21 for that price. Seriously. I thought making your own clothes is supposed to be CHEAP. This is more expensive than buying it from the store.

I mean, I guess if you have the pattern you can make that piece of clothing over and over again but who the hell wants to wear the same shit their whole lives? Maybe I can make the same skirt and give one to all my friends? Lol who wants one? And each pattern you buy only shows you how to make that one style so it's expensive to make your own wardrobe. Unless you are mass producing to sell

I suddenly don't like this class -___-  

I forgot to talk about my health:

I've been eating well. I spent a long time forcing myself to eat regularly instead of starving all day cuz I was too lazy or busy. And now my body is hungry in the morning, at lunch, and dinner so I feed it regularly. I've been eating pretty healthy, even cooking a few things on my own. Lots of fruit smoothies and fresh juice!

On the other hand, next weekend I'm getting 4 wisdom teeth extraction *cries* Why did I wait until I was 24 to do this? I mean at age 12 in that dentist chair the dentist told me I'd have to do it eventually.. why didn't I do it then?! When I healed faster, had worst memory, and daddy would have paid. Plus I coulda missed school for a week! But no.. instead I prayed in my little head that my  wisdom teeth will never grow like all the other lucky peoples.

But nope, here I am.. 24 with HUGE buck teeth getting pushed out even further by my stupid late blooming wisdom teeth. And a bill I have to pay for myself because I don't have dental insurance. On the bright side, I have dental hooks up so I'm excited to be paying only half price. I mean, it sucks to pay but is also exhilarating at the same time to feel like an adult. Am I the only person in the world who is kind of excited around tax time? hahaha shoot me now.

Anyhow, yobo is flying in for my life changing surgery to play Mr. Doctor for a few days. I think he likes punishment, I mean why would someone voluntarily come for something like this? I'll have to think of ways to torture him more than I usually do. Maybe I'll pretend the pain from my tooth also sends shooting pain down to my legs so he'll have to carry me everywhere! Or maybe... the extraction numbed my body so I'll be needing full body massages! Or maybe only a brand new Chanel purse could keep me from fainting from the pain. Medical mysteries. Don't ask me why!

I'm looking forward to a liquid diet. Lazy people food. I remember one time my dad took this stew my mom made, with stewed bones, carrots, potatoes, peas and all and blended it in a blender until it was brown liquid. I gagged but it actually tasted REALLY REALLY good. And I asked for seconds even though it wasn't even made for me in the first place! hahaha You think Won will spoon feed me? Hahahahahahaha
