gong hey fat choy

that means happy new year in chinese. on sat night i went to chinese new year dinner with my friends the joes, it was great fun. It was new years eve! a bunch of us went to dinner in monterey park where most of the chinese folk live here in LA and had a great dinner.

before that my boyfriend and I went to the wine, cheese and chocolate event sponsored by learn about wine. It was really fun! the chocolates were amazing, i sat down and immeidately started eating them, before the event actually started. what? i was hungry!

sunday morning we got up early and went on a bike ride with a group of my friends for 20 miles in the valley! it was amazing, they all had super fancy rode bikes and I was riding a hybrid, so it was heavier and not as fast, so they all ditched me pretty quick but by the end, when they were all tired, my advantage of being in great shape took over and smoked a few of them. Finally, all my hard work paying off. The one thing I didn't l ike was riding on the main road, las virgines, too many cars so i felt very scared, but the rest was beautiful. it was sunny and 75 degrees and a crisp clear day!

yesterday I hit up pasadena with my cousins, shopped around and had lunch. They're christian fundamentalists and so sometimes i'm very awkward when they say stuff like " you know on the news it said global warming was fake..." i'm thinking first of all who calls it global warming anymore, it's called CLIMATE CHANGE, and it's real. just go to australia. second i'm so tempted to engage them in Pro-life discussion becuase while they're against abortion and say "i'm 100% pro-life," they should end that sentence with... "unless that baby turns gay or is black or is an immigrant, then i'm not pro-life, i want to deny them rights." If you're pro-life you have to be PRO-life, all life, not just a baby in utero.

that's my political rant for the day.

i also went to yoga yesterday and then i have no idea what i did the rest of day... how does that happen?

whazzzup??? I just saw a rainbow. I cant believe how cold it is in LA. i mean sure it's freezing in the east, but for LA this is freaking cold, it's in the freakin 50s! WTF? I didn't sign up for this when I moved to sunny LA.

speaking of sunny LA, i just got into business school here! woo hoo! I also got into school in seattle which is a full time program. My school in LA is a part time program, so basically 2.5 years instead of 2. Not sure what to do, but most likely i'll stay in LA, my boyfriend lives here now and i love love love my life here, it's pretty damn good, save for the no full time job part. but maybe seeing the rainbow is a sign!

toinght i'm making stromboli for my friends chris and carrie and we're watching American Idol. I'm super excited as stromboli is way bad for you! and I"m going to eat it and not care... but it's not coincidence that i have my trainer for boxing tomorrow at 830am to start working that shit off. needless to say it's been a protein smoothie and vegetable juice food day today and will be tomorrow. that's the only way you can eat poison that we americans call processed foods available to us in the grocery store. yes i'm insane, i realize i'm a completely and totally neurotic eater.

speaking of putting poison in my body, this weekend my boyfriend and i are going downtown to a chocolate, cheese and wine event. very excited! it's a company that has ton of wine events and i went to "wine bootcamp" a few years ago. mY friend bernsie and i got so drunk at the wine bootcamp that her boyfriend (now husband/future father to be) had to come pick us up and then we made him go to the grocery store and we got icecream. anyway, i'm excited for this event, it sounds fun! how come they only have these things around valentines day, i like wine, cheese and chocolate all the time!!!!!!!

i wish i have been writing more, the truth is, MY LIFE IS SUPER BORING! all i do is write, workout and hang out with my BF. although last week we went to pee wee's playhouse live show. remember paul ruebens from the 80s? he was pee wee herman and then was arrested for jerking off in some gay porn theatre, anyway, he's back and is putting on his live show of pee wee's playhouse and it's awesome! my friend josh myers is in it so i was hoping i'd get to meet pee wee, but alas that was not to be. pee wee was giving a meet and greet while we were in the VIP area hoping he'd show. oh well, it still was hilarious, nostaligic and all that amazing stuff!

i swear i'm writing more, swear.
