“Panda interpreters will answer your questions about giant pandas, conservation,...”
– Washington National Zoo website on Tai Shan’s Farewell Celebration this Saturday. I didn’t know there were people who spoke panda. bahahaha.
@InsideDVF Spring 2010 Trunk Show @DVFBalHarbor today! Hope to see you all there! http://bit.ly/bgZR3E
Saw this on my twitter feed and thought the trunk show was going to be at the Baltimore Inner Harbor. After getting excited for a few minutes, turns out it’s at Bal Harbor, FL. :(
a "smh" moment
In the midst of looking to file my taxes, I did some investigation into what is actually taken out of my paycheck. Because I am a resident of maryland but work in virginia, I’ve been paying Virginia State Tax, Maryland State Tax, County tax, and Federal Tax. All of those deductions really do add up.
After looking into these deductions, I just found out that I can claim exemption from paying...
Decisions decisions.
I’ve been working for about six/seven months now and it may be the time to start making decisions about what comes next. I just found out about a recent opening for a consultant position in my firm, a position I am qualified to fill. With less than a year of working here, am I ready to make that transition? I do like my position and don’t want to leave it so soon, but would moving to...

Why did I just find out about this website now?!?! O man, another website to waste my day away with at work.
New Years Resolution #1,249,753,027
In furthering my effort to fill up my spare time with mind-stimulating activites, I decided to pick up playing the guitar! Yesterday, J.jin and I journeyed to Atomic Music to check out some guitars. Due to an impulse decision, I invested in one of their guitars. Having just about little to zero experience with guitars, I just bought the first guitar the guy said was good and relatively cheap....
So I’ve had an on and off cold for just over a month now and I think the virus will be reaching its peak soon. For some reason, the cold virus just LOVES me. Without fail every fall/winter, I will be sick for a good month to month and a half. The illness always seems to reach its peak around the beginning/end of February with the end result being a lovely ear infection. Doesn’t that...

Happy Hump Day Folk… weekend is...
“Thank you! You are the greatest! At least the star of the week.”
– a quote from an e-mail my co-worker sent me. Couldn’t you have just stopped at saying I was the greatest?!? lol. Continuing on to say “at least the star of the week” takes away from the compliment. haha.
Just saw Wicked this past weekend - AMAZING.
WatchGet ready for TWO episodes of the Jersey Shore tonight. Lol. Watch this. They do breed little guidos and guidettes.
“you should put a post about how amazing i am.”
– quote from the bf himself. wow.

if i had a sister… i dont think i would even steep this low… but den again why do u have a list woman with deadlines!!!!
BAHAHAHA. Omg this girl will never be able to live this down. Is this chick in high school?!?! I’m pretty sure we didn’t make lists like this in HS. Or ever.
Please don’t mind the lack of posts. My mind has shut down and it will not back, fully up and running, until Sunday.
Thanks.
22 = the new 40?!?!
What is real adult life supposed to be like?! lol. Shows such as Friends and Sex in the City gave me the impression that the young professional life was filled with excitement, excessive partying, and things to that nature. As a “young professional” myself, life has been the total opposite.
For instance, I tend to dread going out to the bars/partying. Usually I have to muster up all...
Valentine's Day.
This holiday ranks high on my list of favorite holidays - not because it’s a day that you get to be mushy and gushy with your significant other, but because my favorite candy is sold every V-day season.
As gluttonous as that sounds, this candy is definitely the yummiest I’ve ever had. So yummy, in fact, that I stock up on these gummy hearts every...

As my roommates and I really get serious with working out, we are vicariously living through the jersey shore - hoping in 5 months that will be us.
GTL! - we’ve been keeping up with this, but more like GES - Gym Eat Sleep for us!
Look at what the show, The Jersey Shore, has done to my boyfriend. wow. lol.
Lazy day friday.
TGIF.
because I can come into work and be mindless for the first hour/two, since friday’s are always slow.
because at 5 p.m. I begin my weekend.
because I can actually go to sleep tonight not worrying about getting my clothes ready (ironed/dry cleaned), not worrying that I have to wake up at 6 a.m., and not having to think about my long commute the next morning.
because it reminds me of...
New Year Resolutions
Aside from working out more and eating healthy, I plan on putting most of my effort into a different resolution: Reading more. I’ve never been much of a reader. I think the last books I read for leisure were The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants series.
That being said, my goal is to try and read at least two books a month. The first book I want to conquer is The Lovely Bones.
The book is...
bear with me. Still learning how this works. lol.
