so i gave my notice the other day that i'm leaving my job.  i don't like working at nordstrom anymore.  stupid people.  anyways, friday is my last day so if anyone needs a hookup let me know.  i think i pretty much bought everything i wanted from there.  i applied at some other jobs.  i hope the kaiser one goes as planned.  i'd love to work in an office.  that would be the perfect job or maybe a housewife.  haha.  cant have that now, gotta help with the household income.  i know for sure we're gonna get a good tax return next year cause nordstrom took a lot outta my paycheck. 

in other news, i miss ruffus.  i'm gonna go get him on tuesday and bring him to the vet.  he's been at my in-laws house for awhile now since we're cleaning and getting the house ready.  i miss the little mutt.  hehe.  i don't really have any other news.  nothing new happening in my life.  i miss jordan a lot as always.  at least before i knwo it it'll be october and he'll be back.  i can't wait.  well i guess thats it. bye peoples.

well nothing new going on...i miss jordan a lot.  i've been crying a lot lately.  but hey we're half way there. only another half a year to go and before i know it he'll be home.  i'm not counting on him being home in september anymore.  i'll just look forward to january.  i miss so much.  its hard and it hurts, but all i can do is wait. here's a pic of my handsome hubby...



dang he got big huh!? whoo hoo..=) can't wait to hug him again! okay i guess thats all for now. sorry its not much of an update.  take cares peoples

don't mind that last entry, tried to delete, but its still there.  hey look i uploaded pics!! cool me! hehe.  its a pic of my handsome and hot bodied husband =)

well i know its been awhile since i've been on.  i didn't get a chance to update everyone on my american idol adventure.  but it was fun.  saw a bunch of famous people. front row at the concert and was at the bleachers section cheering on the arriving stars.  it was great.  on another note...

i've been working at nordstrom lately.  i know i'm a graduate..blah blah.  but to my surprise i'm moving to Georgia in a couple months, so why bother starting a career here.  i was offered a position at Eilar & Associates Environmental and Acoustical Consultants.  Its a private agency.  but i decided not to take it...why you may ask? 1) its gonna take a month to train me, another few weeks to get the hang of the programs without guidance 2) they'd be wasting their time hiring and training me when i have to leave as soon as i'm done with the training phase.  3) i know the co-owner. he's my neighbor and i wouldn't want to do that to him. he's done so much for me and that would be messed up if i accepted the job, knowing as soon as i'm done training i'd be moving. so yeah, no biggie.  i'm working at nordstrom and its fine for now.  found a couple of jobs in Augusta, but i've decided to attend nursing school at the Medical College of Georgia.  I realized that I don't want to stop going to school and I figure I've always wanted to be part of the medical field, just didn't want to go to school for so long.  So hey nursing sounds good, especially when their are a billion openings for nurses EVERYWHERE! I know I'll be moving around a lot, and being a nurse is the perfect career for me.  I'd be able to find a job just about anywhere.  I don't plan on telling my family though.  After I finish, I plan on just sending them my diploma and surprising them.  Besides, they don't need to know right now.  Its not like they're gonna be the ones paying for it anyways. 

Wow, that means that in a couple months I'm gonna own my very own house.  I'm super excited and happy about how things turned out.  Oh yeah, for those of you that sound lost, Jordan is expected to redeploy back to the states in the next couple months.  I can't believe how time flies.  I'm happily married at the young age of 23 and will start being a "real" married couple as soon as we see each other again and get our house.  We've already gotten set up with a realtor, who will be keeping me updated on homes I might like in the best neighborhoods.  I can't wait to fix up my house.  I just want a nice, big, open kitchen and a backyard for Ruffus to run around in.  Since I threw away basically everything back at the apartment I get to start fresh and new.  Yup, no cheapy crap in this house.  Inexpensive, good quality definately, but cheap crap like stuff that we needed, but kinda ugly is a NO.  I plan to get all the lil gadgets/appliances I've always wanted and USE THEM! You know how filipino moms/granmas are, they buy nice shit (ie Chafing dishes, juicers, food processors, etc you get the point) and they DONT use them.  That irritates the crap out of me.  We have all the state of the art appliances here at my house, but NO can't use them because the crappy 10 yr old appliance still works.  Hello, it doesn't! Throw it away! Okay..I'm getting off subject. 

Anyways, I plan to paint the walls in the new house, because I noticed many, if not basically all the homes I liked were freakin covered in wallpaper! What the heezy...very tacky. I'm sure glad there's a Home Depot near by.  Home Depot will be my best friend when I get to Augusta.  I love interior decorating.  I'm still trying to decide what kinda "feel" I want for the house..but I guess that depends on how the house looks.  All I know is, ALL my furniture will be usable, none of this...can't go into the Living Room because its the "fancy" room b.s.  of course, I'll have something nice in there, but definately comfortable and enjoyable.  I want my house to have a very warm and happy feel.  When you come in, its gonna feel like home, not being paranoid you can't go into one room versus the other. haha.  Does that even make sense? Well I'm sure you get the picture.  If I ever figure out how to post pics, I will. Maybe I'll just go back to Xanga so I can do that easier.  Yeah, just might.  I want to show everyone pics of stuff.  But we'll see. 

I guess thats it for now.  Sorry its a super long entry.  But yeah, hope you enjoyed reading my babbles. haha..Take cares

whoo hoo, i can't wait until tomorrow! i'm gonna watch the season finale of american idol, LIVE! yup at hollywood!! i'm excited.  we're heading out at 330 or 4am! geeze louise.  line starts at 6am, and they take the first 700 to sit in the pit, then the rest just sit in the regular seats.  oh wells, don't care either way, i've got my tickets anyhow.  i'll tell you guys all about it! gotta go to sleep now! byes peoples!!

i'm done with school! yay me...my graduation was boring though, fell asleep during the ceremony. haha.  my party was fun.  dude packed house, but it was great.  non stop drinks were flowing...haha.  dude i don't even know what i was drinking.  everyone just kept giving me a drink.  it was fun.  i got lots of presents..yay.  i love presents! bought myself a new pair of shoes today with one of my giftcards.  i love nordstroms! anyways, everyone wanted to go to ultrazone, but i couldn't even walk straight anymore so i didn't go.  i just opened my presents.  i don't even know what time i went to sleep, everyone left around 3am. i had so much fun!

in other news, i applied for a job at a environmetal consulting agency up in encinitas.  hope i get it.  i guess thats it..i'll leave you with this.

"confucious say: he who has hope, has everything"

i miss my husband =(

well today was a pretty good day.  i missed ruffus's appointment though, i didn't wake up til almost 1pm! when i woke up my body was really sore and achy.  my abs were and still hurt when i sneeze.  which means i'm doing good at the gym, and i need to push myself harder.  i know i had a good workout when i wake up the next morning hurting like heck.  but its a good thing.  well last night i watched a movie with kat.  we saw 13 going on 30 with jennifer garner.  my cousin was suppose to have a lil get together for her birthday with the family, but plans changed.  if i knew she was gonna change them, i would have just gone to jeff's birthday thing downtown.  oh wells.  anyways, the movie was really good.  i liked it.  well you know me, if there's a wedding scene i'm bound to love it.  tonight i'm planning to watch message in a bottle.  i wonder how its gonna be since i already read the book.  hope its good. 

today i just did my laundry and went with the family to costco and ikea.  parents are buying me a new futon pad because they're gonna take my bed and give it to my brother.  i told them the only way i'm gonna give up my super comfy simmons medi-ped bed is if they buy me a hella nice futon pad.  so its a deal.  also bought some decorations for my party.  its weird.  its suppose to have a vegas night theme, but i really like pink, yellow, and purple.  so my dad said make it a Rio theme.  you know that one hotel at vegas.  i dunno we'll see.  i'm not really into the plans to be honest, since my hunny won't be here.  usually i'm so into planning parties, but everytime my mom asks me what kinda food i want, etc...i just reply with an "i dunno" so i think she got a little pissed today and said "well then since you don't know, how about no party" i just told her i was in bad mood and i'll figure it out tomorrow.  anyways...

today i got invited to go to a Huku Bar.  Tina called asking if i wanted to hang out with her, so i got all ready to go and stuff and then i asked where we were going.  well yeah, she said Huku Bar, i told her i'll go but i'm not gonna drink because i'm on a diet.  she laughed and said no one is gonna drink its a bar where you smoke flavored tobacco. EEEWWWW!  so i said never mind i'm not gonna go because i don't smoke.  so i just stayed home.  a similar thing happen last night. kat invited me to go out to a bar with her and her friends in Del Mar.  so i said sure i'll go, just to hang out, but not drink.  so it was all set.  after the movie was over i asked her what time she was gonna pick me up.  10PM!!  yes, it may sound early for a lot of you, but thats hella late for me!  i'm usually home before midnight!  going out at 10pm?  not my thing, maybe if the hubby were in town and coming along with me i would, but otherwise i'd rather stay home and go to sleep.  so yeah.  also Jen invited me to D&B today for dinner so i can meet her new boyfriend Bo.  She told me he's in the Navy and he's white and cute.  but couldn't go out with her either because i was still at ikea with my family.  oh welly belly.  hey i've been popular this weekend! haha. 

well this week, i only have one exam on monday and i'm free the rest of the week.  i'm gonna study for my 2 exams during finals week.  but either monday or tuesday, i'm gonna have dinner with peter and kat for my birthday.  i wanna go to casa de guadelajara in old town.  they serve free food during happy hour as long as you buy a drink, which by the way is half off.  hehe.  but yeah, wednesday probably just hang out with my family.  i don't think i've spent my birthday with them in a VERY long time.  i was always with friends and jordan. i can't even remember the last time i spent my birthday with them, so i guess this year, i'll be with them.  thursday kat and i are going shopping at 3rd and promenade at the Santa Monica Pier in LA.  then we're gonna take pics at Beverly Hills and she's gonna treat me out to dinner at this really cool restaurant in Westwood.  its a fusion of chinese and european cuisine.  that'll be fun.  i've always wanted to take jordan to Santa Monica, so hopefully i'll get a chance to when he comes home.  i also wanna take him to eat at the restaurant where they filmed Rush Hour.  my cousin said its really good and not very expensive.  maybe we can just spend one night up there or something.  we'll see.  i know there's so many things he wants to do while he's in town. 

anyways, i guess thats all for now. hopefully everybody is doing well.  take cares! byes!
