"EEEP! BIRTHDAY!"-Me, on...the obvious.

It was finally Birthday party day! I was going to do a regular update like everyday but I decided a photo essay was a little more appropriate. But here's the things you wouldn't know from the pictures: Susan, Fabi, Lindsay, Kayla and Sophie all came. SOME people said they were coming and then didn't. Bobobebes. They missed out on a FABULOUS time. But anyway. We had veggies and dip, chips and salsa, and every kind of candy you could ever imagine. It was sugar heaven! Katie decorated the place and it looked so supes cute! I loved it! We had streamers and all kinds of Hello Kitty decorations! Anyway. We watched Clueless, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days and the dvd my mom got me of all the Friends Birthday Episodes so we were up pretty late! But on to the pictures!

OH! And everyone sang Happy Birthday to me. Which for some reason meant a lot to me. I don't know. I haven't been sung to in a while so it was really special. Shout out thanks to my Mom and Katie for basically planning this entire thing for me. It was the best and I had so much fun. And thanks to everyone who came!

Much Love.

"I don't care if it's a gay mag. I'm buying it!"-Fabi, on this magazine for gay guys that has Chase Crawford on the cover.

Today was a pretty good day. Mostly a work day. I woke up at 8:15 and had breakfast with Susan. I had Applejacks! Mmm! Then I was off to work which is where I was until 3:00. Work was pretty good. We weren't too busy and Cory was working so it went a lot faster. We got some cute new prodz in! There's this REALLY cute Ice Cream necklace and it's limited edition, only 150! But oh my goodness we got the COOLEST things in for our photoshoots. We got these ice cream lamps that are SO cute and really big and then we got these GIANT pencil and crayon banks that are hilarious! Everyone was freaking out because the stuff is so cute!

So yeah it was a typical day at work. Pick orders. Pack orders. Ship orders. But it wasn't too bad. And then it was Cleaning Party day so I did my chores which are like windex the windows, sweep the foyer and the sidewalk and pledge and desks and tables. That kind of stuff. OH! But I did get to do something pretty cool. We had to photograph some products today and there weren't any models so Natasha had me and Cory model for the Self-Adhesive Mustaches! It was so funny! We looked ridiculous but we had a real good time. Check it out! Http://www1.fredflare.com/customer/product.php?productid=2427&cat=252

The metro ride back to Manhatten was AWFUL! The L train was running really late so there were like a MILLION people trying to get on and it was already crowded and then at Bedford Ave. this old woman got on and shoved everyone out of the way and hogged the pole so I didnt' have anything to hold on to! And THEN at First Ave. all these rowdy high schoolers got on the metro and there were like 15 of them and only room for like 3 so they were like pushing each other and screaming and yelling at each other and I seriously wanted to kill them. And then they wouldn't get out of my way when I was trying to get off the train! It was trés frustrating!

On my way back from work I met Susan at Food Emporium so we could get some groceries. I love grocery shopping it's so fun! I got some cereal, some canned soup and some chips. Mmm! I'm really excited because I got this new Special K cereal that's cinnamon! Then we were going to go to Jamba Juice but we couldn't find it! We wandered around Union Square with our groceries for like 15 minutes and then just gave up. So maybe next time.

I checked my mail and my Cosmogirl with Miley on it came! I wanted to look through it but instead I went to dinner with Susan, Fabi and Lindsay. There wasn't anything too spectacular but that was alright. When we finished dinner I came up and watched the Atlanta Auditions for American Idol and checked my emails and such. Now I'm off to read my Cosmogirl and probably watch some Lost or something. I'm just taking it easy tonite since tomorrow night is my Birthday Party!!!!! I'm SO excited!

Much Love.

"Wait! Any fashion advice?"-This random guy on the elevator, asking me, Fabi and Susan for advice.

Today was a pretty typical school day. Except for the fact that I was DEAD TIRED. And it's Thursday which means I go to Starbucks AFTER my first class because I have the break. So I was pretty much dying in Cultural Foundations. Luckily we talked about art and it was interesting so I didn't fall asleep. But seriously. Everyone was dead. And no one else even went the most amazing concert in the entire world except me. So yeah. Then I went on my break and headed over to Starbucks to get my tall non-fat latte. OH! And I got a multi-grain bagel and it was SO good! With cream cheese! Mmm! So I sat at Starbucks and ate and read my Nylon. It was very relaxing.

Then it was off to lab. This was our first real lab in science but it ended up being pretty easy. It was like an online module thing and it wasn't that hard it just took a while. The printer was out of paper and toner so we had to email it to ourselves to print at home. Which sucks for the following reason: my didn't send. Yeah. So I got home to go work on my other 2 science homework questions which we were supposed to attach on the end of our lab and I went to open the email and it wasn't there. And I had to do the WHOLE THING OVER AGAIN. I was so pissed. It took me an hour and I'd JUST done it! But I sucked it up and did it and then I finished the other two questions as well so I don't have any homework this weekend.

After that little fiasco I made some tea and talked to Kelly for a while. We were looking at clothes online. Abercrombie has some really cute new stuff in. Then I was going to watch the Atlanta auditions from American Idol but the link was down so I watched some Lost instead. When Lost was over I hopped in the shower and then I went to dinner with Fabi and Susan. They had egg rolls. Mmm! Which reminds me! Me and Mom never had the good chinese when I was home over Christmas break, so we MUST get it when I'm home for my birthday! Which is in a week! Oh and Sam tagged me in a few more pictures. These are from Prom. I love how my mom is in one. So funny!



Anyway after dinner we came back up and watched Spice World in Susan's room with Kayla. I still know like every line. Haha! And when Spice World was over I called Nick back [he'd called me during the movie] and we FINALLY got to talk to each other. We've been playing phone tag for like a week now. So that was nice. We had a good talk and then I called Kyle and he told me about his snow day and such. But now I'm off to bed so I'll see you in a week!

Much Love.

"Ummm...well there's Sporty...and then there's Spice and that's all I can name."-Susan's brother trying to name the Spice Girls.

Oh my goodness oh my goodness! Today's entry will be AHHHMAZING! So first of all today was the first day of lent. Granted I'm not religious or anything but I'm always up for a challenge so as part of lent one of the things I've given up is switching from Grande non-fat lattes to Tall ones. So I had my tall latte and then went to Social Foundations. Seriously. This class is so easy and SO interesting. I love it. Then I went to Life Science. We were only there for 30 minutes and then we got out early which was FABULOUS so it was BACK to Starbucks where I just got a tall coffee and sat and did some reading. Oh and while I was doing my reading this older guy [probably someone's dad] asked me for computer help and it was really funny. He'd been working in Excel and somehow had changed his font color and couldn't get it back. How trivial! But of course I helped him and that just put me in a good mood because it always makes me feel good when I get to help someone [as cheesy as that sounds].

Then it was off to Writing where we started watching this movie called Far From Heaven. So far it's really good. I quite like it. After class I headed back to the dorm and had lunch with Lindsay, Fabi and Susan. Except there was a bit of a scandal. I had this really tasty veggie lasagna but it had BROCCOLI in it! In case you don't know my stomach does NOT like broccoli. So I felt nauseous the entire rest of the day and feared I would be sick for the concert.

While I was not feeling well I worked on a little homework, watched some Lost and got ready for the concert! Luckily I had a miraculous recovery and felt better by the time we met Susan at the Union Square Station. And OH MY GOODNESS was it a mad rush! So Susan got out of her class at 4:45 and we had to get to Penn Station [34th and 7th Ave.] by 5:13 to make the 5:13 train. So Susan RAN to Union Square we got on the Subway and then ran like 5 more blocks to get to Penn and we made it there at like 5:12. It was INSANE! But exciting because it was my first time on a train in New York. So we took the Train to Jamaica and then that to Floral Park which is in Long Island which is where Susan lives!



Susan's dad picked us up and we got to go over to her house and see puppy Sadie! She's SO CUTE! And we had dinner there. Susan's family is hilarious. Espesh her dad. He was cracking everyone up. And Susan's sister Amanda was JUST how Susan always describes her. So it was cool to meet the Harringtons. Then it was off to the Nassau Colosseum and we were running pretty late. But in the end it didn't matter since the concert started an hour and 10 minutes late anyway. The merch was SO CUTE! I really wanted to get something but everything at concerts is so overpriced.

I ended up sitting next to three empty seats and 2 guys who looked like they were probably 24 and stoned. And I was flipping out because I was like "this is not going to be enjoyable". They weren't even excited! But luckily when the concert started there was ONE empty seat in the row in front of me and the girls on either side of it said I could sit there. So that was lucky!















The concert was AMAZING. No joke. I cried during the first number. THAT'S how epifabical it was. They played all the classics and they did 2 songs from the CD after Ginger quit the band and they each did their own special little performance too. Baby's was my favorite, she did a little Mod number. So cute! Anyway. The costumes were fabulous, the whole audience was WAY into it and the whole thing was just awesome. I loved it. It meant so much to me that I got to go because I never got to see them when I was younger and this is the last chance I'll ever get. But really. It was PHENOMENAL.

Much Love.
Jewlie.
