Blue Jean Serenade

It's soo hot outside, and as much as I'd like not to complain about our nice weather, I'm hating how suffocating and stuffy my room has become because of it! I feel like I have a sauna in my room, and I assure you it's not half as glamourous as it sounds. But I guess that's summer right? Yes, that's right, I said SUMMER! YAY. I can hear the hallelujah chorus :) Spring courses are officially over (well the classes anyways), and all I have left is one measly test this upcoming Staurday morning. After that, I can fully embrace summer with open arms, free of any school-baggage.

SUMMER x Stampede fun (and no work there this summer!) + Late Nights + Good Company + Hot Sweaty Nights...temperature-wise of course ;) + Vacay (as of now, no destination has been decided) + Stress Free? + Rocking my "new" vintage Ray Bans + Shorts
=
Pure Bliss. This is my kind of math!

About the shorts, I was thinking about rocking the tastefully ripped, cropped/rolled-up denim shorts. Or just "short" shorts in general, the ones that sit just on or slightly above the knee. Good idea? I mean, I love a good pair or Cargos and Bermudas (so comfortable, and I own 3 and 2 respectively), but they just lack the fashion flare that comes with these new "short" shorts that are all over the runways and fashion mags. I don't know. Accquired taste maybe?


YAY or NAY??

&&&

Oh yeah, did I mention? COLDPLAY WAS FKN AMAZING. Like, for reals.




Must Listen:
1) Heads Will Roll - Yeah Yeah Yeahs
2) The Woods - Stars
3) Wonderful - Lady GaGa

Work.

So I have survived yet another "Flip" at work (where I have to work from 6pm till 2am after hours on a Sunday night in order to revamp the entire store as the new collection arrives). I think this time around it wasn't half as bad - probably because I knew what to expect and the fact that I wasn't sick this time and didn't have to blow my nose every 5 min. Also the Starbucks Mocha Frapp that I enjoyed throughout, may have helped :) At this point, I have officially been working at Club M for about one and a half months. Throughout this time, I have come to love, hate, dread, and re-appreciate my job (in that exact order). As repetitive as it can be sometimes, actually all the time, I find that the people there really do make it worth working there...and the long hour-train-ride it takes me to get there everytime. I guess I lucked out to have found a job in which I actually like the people I work with, and to actually have things in common with them. I mean half the time I spend talking to them about GossipGirl, The Hills, our love for sushi, and the latest celebrity news. Cha-ching.

Also, completely random, but I thought I would mention it anyways (as I am watching music videos while typing this). Have you ever noticed how cell phones or other similar gadgets make cameos in music videos??? It's like artists just HAVE to flash a cell phone in their vids because they think it's "cool" or something. I personally think it's soo tacky and desperate. Just thought I would point that out.

Must Listen:
1) Knock You Down - Keri Hilson Ft. Kanye West & Ne-Yo
2) Around The Bend - The Asteroids Galaxy Tour (I'm not too sure if this is the latest, but it's a recent song from an ipod commercial)

Must See: UP



This movie was INCREDIBLE!! It's been a long time since I've seen a movie so great, and the best part was that I watched it in 3D :) I went into this movie thinking it would be like every other Disney/Pixar movie, in that it would be "cute" but lacking any true substance. But I was soo wrong! At one point (ok fine, several points) in the movie, I was even reduced to teary eyes. Yes, I admit it. There are some sad scenes suprisngly enough, but they made the "happy scenes" so much more worthwhile!
