i’m in pain

oh my goodness, I’m in so much pain right now. But it’s the good pain. The kind of pain you feel after a really good workout. Yes, that’s right. I got back a few hours ago from taking a tahitian dance class in San Francisco and AAHHHH, my legs and my hips are sooo sore. A friend of mine from college who lives in Hawaii is here in the Bay Area for the holidays and she really wanted to check out the dance classes here so that’s how I found myself swaying my hips to drum beats for 2 hours. 2 hours! It was pretty intense but so much fun — I’d love to do it again.

Oh, and thanks to Alie for reminding me that I should have posted a link for anyone who wants to read the aforementioned DC spoilers — here it is. The general DC spoiler thread has all the info you need in the very first post. :)

randomness

Something I forgot to include in my list of New Year’s Resolutions is getting my DRIVER’S LICENSE! lol. If there’s a single most important resolution, it is most definitely that one. I think I have a complex — I get a bit scared and paranoid when I’m behind the wheel. Not a good thing. But I am determined. Oh yes, I am.

When I went back home for the Christmas holiday, I found out that a friend of mine from high school had gotten married a year ago and that another friend recently proposed to his girlfriend. It’s all so shocking — I mean, it seems too soon to settle down. We’re only 23 for goodness sakes! But maybe that’s just me — cause I definitely am not ready for such a huge step.

I must be so bored cause I spent a good part of the day fixing up my fanlisting pages — I even made buttons for some that didn’t have 100×50 codes! It should be a requirement to have 100×50 buttons available on your fanlisting. Ugh, I need to get out of my apartment. :P

happy new year

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

May everyone have a happy, healthy and prosperous 2003. :) I’ve never really been into the whole New Year’s Resolution thing — mostly because I never had the willpower to actually follow through with any of them, lol. But I do love the idea of a fresh, new start so –

Kelly’s Resolutions for 2003 (in no particular order):

1. sit down and actually study for the GRE just in case I decide that I actually want to go to graduate school

2. start taking ballet lessons again — Can you believe that when I was 14, I believed that I was going to be a professional ballerina? I was so serious about it — but then high school came along and I realized that there were other things in life besides dancing. I really miss it though.

3. find a job that I actually like and enjoy doing
That seems pretty realistic, right? We’ll see how it goes. ;)

Wowzers, I really have to get used to this flat screen on my new computer — the standard resolution on it is 1600×1200(!). I’m using 1280×1024 to make things just a bit bigger but geesh, everything still looks tiny. My site takes up little more than half the screen. Weird.

So I guess you can tell that I’m staying in for New Year’s Eve– no big party for me. I’ll probably just be watching TV. hee.

Plugs for Cat and Ji — thanks for the new year’s well wishes! mwah!

so long to christmas

Oh my gosh! It was such a nice surprise to come home and see all the holiday emails and fansigns. ::sniff:: Thanks to Linda, Rachel, Elisha, Angie, Glory, Sam, Jessica, Tina, Brianna, and Sofie! You girls are so awesome. I will definitely put up the signs asap.

I got my new computer! :) I arrived in northern CA last night and it was here waiting for me. ::sigh:: I am in love with it. It’s so sparkly and new and just so much better than my current computer. I still have to install some programs (PhotoShop!) and transfer files — but eeeh! So excited. :P I even watched some episodes of Felicity on the fun CD/DVD-ROM because I CAN. mwahahaha. I know, I know — i’m such a big nerd. hee.

Well, I had an amazing Christmas — got lots of fun presents (a new comforter and sheet set, pj’s, sweatshirts, a purse, and a brand-spanking new watch), I saw Two Weeks Notice and Catch Me If You Can (both great movies — yummy Hugh and Leo!) and I got to hang out with friends I barely get to see. (Hello Robyn and Carmen!) :) I hope everyone had a great holiday as well!

happy holidays

I hope everyone is enjoying their holidays! :) I’m at home in southern CA right now on my dad’s super slow computer — it’s driving me crazy! I can’t surf the net like I’m used to, lol. I haven’t been blogging because last weekend I was so busy trying to finish my Christmas shopping before my flight home. Anyway, I’m going back to northern CA this Saturday so I’ll be able to blog properly and answer email then. And maybe my new laptop will be there waiting for me — whee!

eeeee!!!!

I just bought a new computer! Dell Inspiron 8200 – 2.0ghz, 512mb sdram, 15″ display, 40gb hard drive, CD-RW/DVD combo drive, awesome video card… ::sigh:: I like to think of it as my Christmas present to myself. hee. I probably shouldn’t have bought it considering I will be out of work in a week (shudder!) but my dad said he’ll help me out a bit if I let him have my current computer. :) It’s gonna be my first laptop too. It’s all so exciting. I want it now! But I won’t get it til the week after Christmas. Damn. :P

christmas craze

I have just closed hosting for the time being. There are a few emails that I just got today so I’ll still take a look at those but that’s it. I’ve accepted a few hostees in the past few days which would bring up the total to 23, I think. That’s more than enough for now. I’ll put up the form again if I feel there’s a need.

Been busy lately with lots of Christmas stuff to do! The holidays really crept up on me this year — I just started writing my Christmas cards and I have a ton of shopping left to do. Blah. I went shopping yesterday even though it was pouring rain outside and I barely accomplished anything because the mall was so damn crowded. ::sigh::

I’ve also begun stressing out because next Monday is my last day of work and I still haven’t found another job. Next subject…

Oh! If anyone would like a Christmas card from me, send me an email! :)

driving lessons

So i went to the 49ers/Rams game yesterday. I loved our seats cause we were in the shade. Mwahaha. And it was a really hot day yesterday so… yeah. The 49ers totally beat the Rams, which sucked cause Rob really loves them and most of us were wearing navy blue. Eh, whatever. I didn’t really care. It was just cool to see a football game live.

And I took my first driving lesson in 6 years today. Umm, I did okay but I think at the sloooow rate I’m going, it’ll be another few years before I’ll ever get my license. I mean, my turns totally suck. And I almost hit a parked car. Don’t laugh — it was traumatizing! My next lesson will focus on more traffic-oriented things, like lane changes. Beware Bay Area. :P
