It's a cherry blossom storm.

Uh... yeah, I'm on my own FL. What of it? :P
Newsflash: Boys are stupid. Sorry, boys. (Why do I say this? Uh, gee, because I try to work/get along with the guys at my work, but maybe it's the atmosphere, or their age --younger, of course-- or something else, but they were ALL total jackasses today, and I left work without saying a single word to any of them-- even when I came back a SECOND time to pick up my shirt.)
Extra, Extra! I have found that it's great to be empowered and looking at the bright side of being single again. It's hard to imagine feeling that way again after a long, very meaningful relationship-- so it takes a bit of self-kicking-in-the-ass to get me in motion. And what did I do today to get me in that direction? Blew $200 on a pair of leather pants. :> But damn, I look good in them!
And I also went to Forever 21... which is ALAS! so very dinky compared to the flagship store in San Francisco. Why is everything big in San Francisco now? It's weird. I'm not sure who to blame for my new F21 addiction-- Steph for taking me there, Eva for being a shopaholic just like me (at least she seems like one...) or Tobey for working there and giving me a reason to be nice and stick around-- and get suckered into checking out all three floors and buying things. In this Northridge branch, I got myself a new tank top and a new skirt. The tank top will look FAB with my leather pants, my boots, and maybe a light jacket or something.
I have no work for the next two days, but since I managed to blow most of my paycheck today (it was measly, considering I'd been in SF for a week-- and I also got my finger stuck in the fridge fan at work, so I had to get my fake nails removed) and stupid "R" still has not done the tips, I'm holding off on any spend-a-thons until I get my financial aid check a week before school starts on the 29th. However, Baba is desperate for me to re-vamp my wardrobe and help me along for school, so maybe on Thursday when she goes to her swim class, I can go to the CSUN Jamba, find out about the transfer (turns out Red Robin doesn't open till October!), grab some textbooks, a pencil bag, and a planner... and ta-dah!
Still expecting in the mail: an azurite bracelet (or two...!?) and earrings, Baba's romance novels, and That Damn Check. It would also be nice to get reply emails from the Red Robin in Canoga Park, the PayPal people in charge of my name-change, the person whose azurite bracelet I accidentally bid on twice (I asked them if I could retract my bid).
I have lots of cleaning to do, plus I want to work on more icons for

List seven of your favorite songs of the moment in your journal and force seven other people to repeat this or God will kill a puppy.
1. Seduccion by Thalia - It's got such a great beat... and I just think it sounds better than the English version
2. Dance, Dance [The Mexican] Hex Hector Mix by Thalia - This song makes you want to dance, just like Thalia sings! ^_^v
3. Shuffle DV Mix by Masami Okui - I like this mostly because of the vocal intro by Some Nameless Guy. It's kind of like a trippy pep-talk, but with a Yu-Gi-Oh theme.
4. C'est la Vie - Watashi koisuru no bubun by Minako Aino (or whoever her actress is :P) - Only because I've been listening to it on my playlist.
5. Sakura Fubuki by Rei Hino (again, or whoever her actress is) - My FAVORITE SONG out of the whole PGSM series (so far).
6. Empezar de "0" by Thalia - Dab, dab, dabbity, dabbity, dab, dab, dab...
7. No Me Voy a Quebrar by Thalia - I don't understand a word of what she's saying, but I love the melody!

Finally, I have a new layout for my LJ (Dear Diary...) but I seriously want to tweak it so that:
a) The navigation for previous/earlier entries is at the bottom of the page
b) The links I've designated are separated by bullet points
c) The subject lines of entries are in a separate color/table row
d) The user pictures of posters (me, friends, community pictures) are to the LEFT of posts, not to the right
Anyone know where I could begin with this?
