new apartment, help!

so we recently moved to a new place. we decide on this apartment because of the price, (super cheap) neighborhood, parking, and size. this place is super huge compared to our dtla apartment. but unfortunately it is super basic, and by basic i mean basic. the only rooms that have off white paint is the kitchen and restroom. the bedroom and living room seem to only have been painted with a primer coat cuz it is crazy white in my opinion. and yes i have been cursed with 1960's wood panels!!!

i bought a cute mirror from ikea. tried it out and fail. it was bringing so much more attention to the wall that i wanted to barf!!! yuck!!!

so i started looking into removable wall paper. every site i looked at was pricy. i started to believe i was stuck with this wall, until one morning. My friend Carolyn mentioned she'd seen some on fab.com, so right away i looked it up and BAM!!! $18/ pc. the cheapest I've seen so far. so i placed an order only for 1, just to test drive it and see if it will work out. i settled on the yellow chevron.

ive been thinking on turquoise walls... here are my inspirations... prob never end up looking close to this...

do you have any tips for me? help! help! help!

ohh how i miss the bitching and cat fights. salon life.

yes it is true lately ive been missing salon work. the drama, the fights, the back stabbing, ohh how i miss you!!!

it has been about 5 years since i have last worked in a hair salon, and lately i cant help but miss it.

the last year i worked at regis was tough. i was working two jobs. bcbg from 6-3am, then rush over to regis from 4-9. i even had to work saturdays. i even remember being so tired on saturday evening that i would call in pizza delivery on my way home so by the time i get home pizza guy is getting there too. eat a whole medium pizza and then fall asleep for the rest of the night. (fatty)

i think what i miss the most are my clients. some of them were so hilarious... some were so weird to the point it was hilarious. I've met so many nice people how ive managed to build friendships, especially with Kimmy. who knew we would hit it off and keep in touch after all these years.

last night mark and i too a quick stroll at the galleria, i can finally walk in a mall and not be completely annoyed by every one. wowzers! (regis was in a mall)

maybe i should do the two job routine again? a few extra bucks wouldnt hurt. ugh but being even more tired is the scary part that stops me. things we do for what we have passion for.

lakers gf rant #1

sad that Phil Jackson isnt coming back?
yes so am i. i mean I'm not a hardcore fan, but im a gf of a hardcore fan... so unfortunately i get stuck watching all the media coverage and i cant help but get emotionally attached.

i get to see all the craziness when it comes to true lakers fans. i thought it was just mark, i thought he was koo koo, but no. i see it as a cult. people wear hats, shirts, jersey's and even tattoos. and no matter where you are at "representing," another fan will stop to say hi and talk about the current lakers events. even if they dont have the time to catch up, they will pass just chanting "lakers."

mark some how convinced me once to hit the streets of dtla on their last championship win. OHH MAA GAA, that was some scary ass shit... i have two ways i compare that experience. now i know what its like to be part of a herd of cattle. every one starts off on one point... walking together. next minute there are police men in riot gear at one end with rubber bullets and them smoke thingys (yes i dont know what they are called)... next thing you know we all start running back all scared like poor helpless cattle. baahahahahaha the other is your personal point of view... i felt as if i was in the movie cloverfield. no idea what was down the street... surrounded by tall buildings, i started to scare myself and was ready to piss my fucken pants!

rant #1: i love that mark is very passionate about "his team" but cut me some slack... if i watch the laker game with you, why wont you watch clueless with me?!?!?!?!?

Dont forget to check out FEARLA, for you crazy lakers fans.

what to watch???

can you believe we have not signed up for cable since we moved to our new place! yes! reason? we don't get time warner in our area = no laker games = boycott all cable companies! (at the time)

im not gonna lie, it was pretty damn tough at first. i was missing my E!, bravo, and especially food network. but i think im over them... for now. just wait till nurse jackie comes back, and ill prob be having a shit attack. so what did i do? i actually had to buy an antenna for our tv's. weird!!! i was very surprised on the new designs for antennas, they look nothing like they used to! "this is an antenna or a picture frame???"

but lucky enough ive been able to get hooked on a few shows...

modern family

parenthood

go on

the new normal

i actually started watching parenthood from the very beginning. ohh man season two was tough! theres like 23 episodes! i was ready to give up! i was even having night mares based on some of the story lines. woke up and told mark my bad dream and all he says to me is "you gotta stop watching parenthood. baahahahaaha... still working my way through season 3, love this show the most!

what shows are you currently hooked on?

life lately..???

Lately life has been blah!

I feel stuck. I wake up go to work, go home and go to sleep. And guess what. I wake up the next day and do it all over again.

I haven't been inspired to do/finish any of my posts, to the point I even thought of deleting my blog.

And it's not just my blog. It's everyday things. From my weight loss, home decor projects, to my hair... Just put me out my misery please.

So after thinking about it I will try out a lil project and see if the wheels start turning on this sucker...

What do you usually do when this feeling comes over you? Any tips?

Wish me luck.

im only happy when it.... raaaiiinnnnssss!!!
