I'm off to New York tomorrow! I'm being sent out to work at our Hoboken office for a week. I'm flying out a little early with my lovely boyfriend to enjoy all the lights and holiday cheer in the city. It'll be a rough flight (it's at 7am) especially since my office's holiday party is tonight. Better not go overboard with the open bar.
New York/Hoboken will be fun regardless. Things I definitely want to do this weekend:
- Dumplings at Joe's Shanghai - Dinner at Blue Hill - Christmas tree at Rockefeller - Stroll around 5th and Park Ave - Stroll through Central Park and maybe ice skate - Get Jewish food - Dance Dance Dance!
Is this wonderfully adorable little teapot! It's a teapot with a cold. How friggin' precious is this? If it weren't so expensive I would buy it for myself. It is too cute to handle, I could just explode!
Christmas is almost here and that means I'll be watching some of my favorite Christmas movies on repeat. I'll be sharing those favorites with you in the next few weeks.
I love Christmas Carol remakes and one of my all time favorites is a VH1 made for TV Christmas movie from 2000 that stars Vanessa Williams as a diva name Ebony. Chili from TLC and Kathy Griffin also appear in the movie as ghosts. This movie has it all! A bitchy diva, cheesy songs, children hating, and D-list celebrities. Not to mention 80's flashbacks with Vanessa Williams and Chili in a girl-group. The performance of their song Heartquake is incredible.
A Diva's Christmas Carol is available on DVD and VHS from Amazon and I highly recommend this movie to all lovers of Christmas and America! If you don't like this movie, you're a communist!
Oh crap. I've just scientifically proven that I'm racist. I took a test at Project Implicit that tests what's actually on your mind and not what you consciously say. I took the Asian IAT test that determined that I associate European Americans as more American than foreign and Asian Americans as more foreign. Sigh. I'm a racist against my own kind. White is right! USA USA!
I also took the Sexuality IAT that says that I am more comfortable with gay people than straight. That one makes sense. There's a bunch of other neat tests on there that are worth trying out. I think I will do the Skin-tone test next to determine my preference for light or dark skin.
It's Britney Spears' birthday today! Hurrah! I knew she'd have a comeback. A real comeback, not like the comeback I called last time. I'll be listening to her new album and her greatest hits on repeat today. My co-workers are gonna hear me going "womanizah womanizah womanizah!" all day long.
By the way, I highly recommend her tell-all special "For the Record". Looks like she's got it all figured out. She's looking good!
In other news, my co-worker Chelsea got engaged this past weekend! Hooray!
Update!: I just bought tickets to see Britney at the tacoma dome in April.
Sorry for the lack of posts in the past few weeks. Dating and work have made me a busy girl. But I'm back!
Not much has happened. Here's a quick update:
- I'm smitten for my boyfriend. - Work has been busy. I'm so excited for all the lovely days I get off in December. In addition to all the holidays I get off, I have a bunch of pto days that I can't carry over to the new year that I must use in December. - I got a tattoo! It's a lotus in honor of my Mom (lotus was her name in Chinese). -I've listened to Jesse Mccartney's song "It's over" well over 100 times in the past 3 weeks.
-I'm going on a Carribean cruise in early January!
