Brrrr.. it's cold!!

Friday was the coldest day in NYC. It was 5 degrees with wind chills making it feel as cold as -5 to -15. I am getting used to the cold weather but still miss Sunny California. I am looking for a ticket to visit SF for the end Feb... Can't wait!

So the news.. I met someone. He is so different from all the guys I have dated in the past, he is VERY VERY successful, fun, and sexy. We are a little different, style-wise but we just click... We can talk for HOURS and have a great time. I have doubts that our different lifestyle will eventually be a problem. It has only been 3 weeks.. if it doesn't work out, oh well... I am happy that I met him for the time being.. he is really good to me!!

The News...

Just got back from a wonderful vacay back home. Got to party like a rock star, see the fam and just hang out in good ol SF. It hasn't changed and SF will ALWAYS be the same with dumb beezing feeling insecure about themselves.. either seeing me on Haight St or Delirium. I laugh.. people know when Elena and I are together and out to cause a scene! Got to hang out with Stace and Elena.. miss those girls. Got to see Maryanne, the mother to be. I saw the boy that used to give me headaches in SF... It's always fun catching up and hanging him even though it was short and quickie*!

Miami Winter Music Conference Hoollllla - March 26-30! Gonna be off the hook. I get to relax with Michelle, Stace and Elena on the South Beaches of Miami for a couple days.. CAN'T WAIT!!

I'm on a trail period at Crunch Gym... I miss my 24 hour fitness membership.

Oh, and I joined facebook... yeah yeah..I gave in. I'm such a sucker but yummy gummy on the inside. I hope that doesn't sound nasty.

Met a few guys at Happy Ending.. I found a dance partner!!

I gave up smoking and coffee.

VICTORIA'S SECRET SEMI ANNUAL SALE!!!

Only on the subway in NYC...

I was heading to Brooklyn and a bunch of kids jumped on the train with a boom box. They started rappin a bit and then after blasted some old school break dancing music on their boom box. I looked away and when I looked back I saw the kids break dancing and the cool part was that the train was crossing the bridge so they had a good 5-8 mins without the train stopping/people jumping on/off the train. It was definetly the most creative/entertaining way to make some cash on the train that i've seen so far.

Oh what a change...

Since you've last seen me, you'll notice that i lost the big ghetto gold earrings, the fabulous nails, crossed with the whole hipster look - that whole trashy classy look. It's probably because that look here is old and the only people still rocking that style are the girls who were rocking them since day one in the PJs. That look was soo 4 years ago. Or maybe it was never the "in" style since high fashion is all around. It's crazy how different SF is to NY. Or should I say, how far behind SF is from NY, style wise. I am loving the late 80's/early 90's look crossed with the bohemia style.. it's been around for a while. The greatest thing about NY compared to SF is that you get to change up your style for every season. Summer was great, who would've thought that I would wear Keds without socks.. in different colors or gladiators with fringe in different lengths. SF wouldn't allow you to get into those without freezing your little toe off. I got into cute skirts, tank tops, bras that have cute straps and backs. I was able to wear cute bikinis under lose tops.. oh the endless things you could wear during the hot NYC days. Then you get the ultimate extreme of winter. Winter here is fun because you get to wear cute long coats and accessorizes with cute scarves, puffy ear muffs, all kinds of hats, knitted barets, fancy gloves, colorful leg warmers under your boots, cute tights.. ohh all the fun I am having with shopping for NY's winter. It did get as cold as 25 degrees last week which was harsh. It fucking sucked when there was a cold front because that wind feels like 15 degrees and you either need a scarf or a nice coat that covers your mouth so that you can breath... Yup.. NY's winter!!

P.S. Patiently waiting for Top Shop to open to help add to my winter collection!!

Fashion Institute of Technology

So close yet so far. I'm waiting and waiting for my one year NY residency so that I can attend F.I.T without out of state fees. The fees for out of state is outragous and is almost triple the amount.. might as well go to Parsons if I am paying that much. Until then, I am am gonna take a few transferable classes at BMCC - Borough of Manhattan Community

I am gonna end this blog with these cute riding boots from Frye. Frye isn't my style but I hella want these boots. Perfect for the rainy/snowy weather in NYC - $350

The I in ME!

As the days go by, I am acknowledging that my life has always been about I and ME with the people and things that revolve around me. Did I get the I and Me syndrome from being the youngest sister of two older brothers and an an older sister or was it from being the younger of four in the eyes of two hard working parents that did everything to give us anything and everything? With all the broken hearts of my past, the last has definitely made me shield my feelings and heart to think and live in a world of ME where outsider can't hurt me. The I and ME might consists of being a bitch, mean, "too cool to care" attitude, or all of thee above. But under it all, there is just a girl holding tight to something she doesn't want to lose control of whether it be her self-control, feelings, or heart. How do you let go without losing control of whatever it is that I am holding on so tight of?

I am constantly on the search for something and that something will be yet defined when it comes.

Reissssssss

I LOVE REISS. Only if the fashion industry pays better I would be able to afford this gorgeous, sexy purple high waisted stretch pin skirt I saw the other day. I could not find it online anywhere but if you stop by a Reiss, keep an eye out for it.. it's a beauty that cost about $295. Here are a few SS09 skirts I found online. Reiss Madness is here for the season and the following seasons to come! I <3 REISS!
