Christmas

As I listen to all my favorite Christmas songs I become more and more nostalgic about the rest of my family back in America. I start reminiscing about all the Christmases I spent with my mom, sister, brother, grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins together, they were many, and this is the first year I've lasted more than 6 months without seeing any of them, I miss them so much. I miss my mom, dad, sis, bro and the rest of the family, I so wish my lil love, big love n me could spend Christmas with them, because I know that would make it extra special. I love you guys so much, and I wish everyone a super Happy Christmas!!

the phrase...

'You've got it going on!!'' that phrase was so over many many years ago, and for that I'am thankful. I can't even remember who or what made the phrase a hit back in the 90's (which i can hardly remember, I was like 12) lol, I think it was the Backstreet Boys who made it part of the phrase a total hit; does anyone remember ''We've got it going on'' it was the song that brought them to fame. I must admit I was quite thankful back then, oooh the super young years. The years where I would wear whatever I wanted whenever I wanted, everything suited me (or so I thought) nothing was too big or small on me either, just the perfect fit, now a days well after the lil' one's birth I seem to loose and gain weight and do have to be careful with what I eat. That is the reason my many colours have become the new black. Any-who. I must now be off, and you can be expecting some more blogs along with the New Moon review.

Have a nice nite.....

Going back to Black...

Not really going back to black, but it's getting nearer to the date, the Day that we are moving back to America. We still have quite a few months, but day by day it gets closer. I think I'm getting more and more over England, or maybe the people around me, not counting Norma, Miriam, Allison, etc. I know I will make more friends by my job, but I'am over the country, or the region lol. I think I've given it a good try, but people are boring, over here, they only go on about the same things time to time. So uninterested. Before I used to hang out with my friends my age back home and it was all good, but here some people around my age are nothing but total hypocrats-suck ups, so thank's but no thank's. I've learned more by talking more to older people, they are wiser, I now appreciate my mom and dad way more.

Anyway, Good news, the recession is over in the U.S.A big yayyyyy!! Hope the 3 of us can go back soon.

what to????.....

Sorry for not writing too much lately, being a bit busy. Any whooooo....

Seems like it's getting closer to the premiere of New Moon, which for some it might be awesome, for another it's just one more opportunity to watch some decent(hint on the some) perform poorly. I still believe that anyone else would of done a better job as Bella, she can't act to save her life, and not many people like her, sadly seems like she doesn't even like herself. Lauren Conrad could of done a better job haha.
Talking about Lauren Conrad, it's pretty sucky that she left The Hills, I was actually enjoying the faux-drama, I don't see The Hills without her. So now we are stuck with who everybody calls the money making **** speidi, and the not so good looking kristin. I started watching The Hills becuase Lauren was into fashion, just like me, and it was an opportunity to see what it was like at different places for internships, but now she's left, what's next? No one else in the show has any fashion sense, if they don't dress tarty like Heidi, they dress ott, scruffy, or just a plain mess. So I think if I have to watch any other reality show to replace this one it will be The city....
On that note I'm off, have a cool weekend....

California here we come...

No not really, but as I listen to this old hit i start missing The OC, and America. Things were easier when The OC was on air; not that i don't like my life here, I do truly love it, but I can't stop reminiscing the old oc days. My life was similar, but not so similar, not a whole lot of drama, just brought up a bit like in the OC. In case you feel like loading the song( as if you u guys don't have on your i-pod lol) It's by phantom Planet. I never got to buy their album mmm....

Any who, I'm re-doing my i-pod tunes but i think I'm sticking to my classics and some not so classic but quite catchy. Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers (American Girl), The clash, (Lost at the supermarket, London calling, etc) Def Leppard (Pour some sugar on me) Dirty Dancing, Footloose, Jeff Buckley, 99 Red Balloons amongst many others.

What isnpired twilight???...

So I've being asking myself what inspired Stephanie Meyer to write twilight and all the following books? This is my opinion and nothing else. As I watch through several programs i.e. Veronica Mars, The O.C. Harry Potter and many others I can't help but notice the resemblance on some.
Veronica Mars' Pacifier in one of the episodes, i.e Jasper, the drama of the OC for one girl, actually many things in the OC as in Harry Potter, werewolves, vampires, you name it. To me it's obvious the many similarities to other shows, books, etc. Even some of the people in the movies. I'm not criticizing they are good, I have read every one of them, a bit dissapointed in some, but the 4th one is not the best, and I know I'm not alone on thinking that aswell, just look at perez hilton's comments about the books haha!! Well I guess that's it on this topic.

Nite.....

One chance....

I've given England a chance, but why doesn't England give me a chance??

It's being so hard to find a job over here, I've being on 3 interviews, and nothing so far, yes some were for crappy sales jobs at places I didn't like. Today I finally went to somewhere i liked but I still don't know the result, the woman told I passed, but they still had several more people going for the same job. ''Who ever gets the highest score will get the job'' So it makes me think why couldn't I get the highest score? What is the highest score? What didn't I do? I felt I did great, but it frustrates me and makes me so mad that I can't just a job on the spot like I did back in America several times.

The question or questions are. What do I need to do? Or who do I need to be to get a job in this country I chose to live?!.......

Monday 20 July 2009

Have you ever just being in the mood that you just want to write but have no idea about what or how to start? Today's one of those days.

There hasn't been anything super inspiring. I've had a great overall.

I watched Privileged last nite and I was quite surprise, I actually liked it. I didn't think there was anything necessarily wrong. I remembered when it was advertise back in America, it was just bad, but seeing it advertised in the UK made me want to watch it and it was to my very own surprise, very freakin' cool. Although knowing it got cancelled in the U.S.A I can't help but blame the network that advertised it.

Then again, it could of being an OC case.....Remember The OC?! I do, I've got all the seasons on DVD, (whenever I miss America I play it from the begining). The OC case is something known as it was great watching, then got good, then ok, and then thank's for the ending, finally!! It went from good to poorly bad. Some blame the exit of Mischa Barton, but there was nothing else to do with the character, or was there? It just got too much of Ryan and Marissa. I enjoyed mostly every character, my favorite went from Marissa, then Seth, Summer, Julie, Sandy, and Caitlin at the end. I guess Taylor was ok, but not good enough. I do ocassiaonally miss it though. Good times.

I'm a Gossip Girl, and 90210 fan, but it's not because of the storyline, it's because of the fashion, whenever I'm feeling totally lost in my closet these 2 series come to my aid. Not bad at all. Kuddo's to their stylists. Not as good as Patricia Field, but not bad....

Anyway I must sign off now. Have a nice nite xoxo lol

Fabulous

Most talked about model at the minute: Erin Wasson and yes she's quite fab!

As I looked through my Fashion Magazines, I can't help but wonder why the hypocrisy?
The budget pages, when you think of a fabulous budget pieces you imagine £50 to £5 don't you?
But no, the reality is the new budget is £300 to £150 for one piece, a simple cotton shirt or a simple pair of trousers that you could find somewhere else for way less. Yes I know you are paying or a Designer piece, but in times like these, don't you think designers should think of those people who used to buy from them all the time 'till they went brankrupt or just lost the money? At the end of the day those were the real customers. And those who keep trying to pay the overprice designer clothes will shortly have to end up on a tighter budget.

These doesn't mean I've given on my designer pieces, but probably for the moment I will. Luxuries will have to wait, family comes first.

And to all those shopaholics, I hope you set your priorities straight.

Honestly,

Fasali....

Something something......

miss chic and fabulous parties... only in America...I guess here they don't really happen.

Any whoooo.....

Today has being a great day, A&D always make it awesome, but i bet that if my family and friends
from back home would be here it'd be more special.

I'm gettin new friends over here now and I like it, not as if though I didn't have any, I've got at least 4 true friends here that I know I can always count on, more than some people would ever have probs, not everybody can say they've got true friends and that I've noticed with people I met.

Girls, well some girls here seem very insecure, bitchy, and hipocrat, things I can't stand. They talk bad once you've got your back to them and that is just LOW AND VULGAR, like I said I've met a few girls that are that and that is quite bad. So I just say hi and act nice, after all I've got class, manners, education, and a high confidence.

Jealousy is bad, and I've noticed a lot of them feel it, I suggest to deal with it or get over it, ' you won't change'.

I have not changed and I don't intend on changing at all, I will Always like Prada, Chanel, Dior, Gucci, Westwood, LV, BCBG and many more that I rather not share lol. I've got my designer clothes and handbags, but for some reason i think i've changed in the sense that I don't like certain people to see it, since I know it'll only bring out more jealousy. I actually feel bad for them to be honest.

Anyway, thank's for some of you messages and to my followers, to who I hope you all don't mind if I keep my messages and followers private, don't feel the need to share them with everyone haha...

Thank God, A & D and my family back home, friends here and back home, you all rock!!

At the minute.....

I'm feeling happy, loved, content, just very good:) I love all those who mean everything to me, who are my life, my world. A and D, mam, sis, dad, bro, my friends back home, Norma who is always there when I need her, and those who are always there for me, and ask for nothing in return.

I don't like doing favors when asked at times, especially for those who i hardly like, and viceversa....weirdo I am lol.
