It may seem lame to some people, but I was amongst many people who lined up to get my hands on an iPhone 3G. After stalking the MacRumors forums for the past week, I had a plan to get there early, even if it made me late for work. So I got to the Apple store in the mall around 6:30am, got into the store by 9am, and was out of the store with my 3G at 10:45am.

It didn’t help that the servers were down and my phone wouldn’t activate. But I was patient and happy that I had gotten the phone, so however long it took. It was nuts though as I was leaving… the line was seriously insanely long! I went back to the mall after work with my mom and sister to browse some clothing stores and there was still a pretty long line to get iPhones. So imagine how it will be all weekend!

Nonetheless, I am so happy I have my iPhone, I got the 16GB in white. I was debating what size to get, but then I realized the App Store! So I went bigger. I got a clear case to protect my phone as well, and it looks slick! Now I just need to get the screen protector film, and I’m complete. I didn’t get it when I was at the store because the employee had said it wasn’t the same size, but I’m pretty convinced it is, since my Paul Frank case fit fine on the new iPhone.

Anyway, enough of my iPhone rant. I seriously hope that everyone who wants one gets one, because it’s such a great phone. The 3G speed makes mobile web worthwhile.

Wow, this long weekend really made me feel fat, cuz of all the food that was consumed from Thursday night until now!  Thursday night was Trivia night, so of course I had to have my usual Gorgonzola burger.  It was just too good to resist!  Friday I only remember popping an Amy’s Pizza into the oven for dinner.  Saturday I had empanadas Glen’s mom made, our own creation of Palomilla steak, rice and beans, and a late night snack at the Hard Rock Casino and today went to a BBQ and had a cheeseburger, BBQ on a stick and a hot dog, as well as potato chips.  Oh, and not to mention the small portion of sauteed shrimp and rice, and another empanada.  OMG.  A workout is much needed this week!

After this week, vacation!  I really want to workout when I’m at the hotel, but I’m going to be so busy, I’m going to have to figure out when I’ll be able to.  I’m addicted to good food, and really am going to strive to eat with healthiness in mind, as much as possible.

it’s strange how little things like a song, or anything can remind you of an experience in your life.  i am totally happy with where i am in my life right now but there are always times when i look back and reflect on what has happened to me that has made me into who i am today, or where i am now. 

looking back into the past is something that all you can do is accept what you’ve already done, and learn.  and although you can’t always try to get back to that place, because sometimes it’s better that way, you can’t help to just think about it sometimes. 

i dunno if i’m making sense, but this post is inspired by a song i heard today.  so it just got me thinking.

Geez, the last time I wrote up a post was almost a month ago.  Srsly, time really flies!  I’ve been SO busy with work and other online projects.  I’ve been helping Glen get his blog up and running, and there’s so much work to do!

Other than that, I’m getting back into eating healthy and exercising, but I’m not going to be doing it to a level where I’m obsessed.  Because I feel that doing that will just discourage me and I’ll stop again.  When I have time I do it, if not, I won’t be all sad about it.  I also really want to learn how to cook more than go out to eat, because all Glen and I do on the weekends is spend money and eat out.  We need to save money and we have to learn anyway, at least I do!

My sister turned 21 yesterday and we celebrated at this Bar/Lounge called Blue Martini.  That girl can out drink me anyday!!  I seriously am too old to do that scene.  Ok, I’m not too old, but I think I’m over it.  I rather relax at home with loved ones and get a good night’s sleep.  That’s just my opinion.  I still can’t believe that she’s finally legal.  I remember when she was just a little girl following me everywhere.  Now I can barely get her to color my hair!  She’s always on the move.

Next month I go on vacation, and srsly, I cannot wait!  I’ll let you all know where I’m going when it gets closer.  I totally deserve a break, but then again, it’s going to be hard for me since I’m going to be doing ‘work!’  Nonetheless, it’s work I’m excited about and I’ll be relaxing when the day is done.

I’ll definitely write more.  I guess I’m just having trouble just opening up sometimes!

I’m the type of person who really takes in everything I get, like laughing at The Daily Puppy in the morning when I open up iGoogle, laughing about something funny, or the fact that they’re playing a bunch of good 90’s music in Pandora. Those make me happy. Hearing from old friends that I’d never expect to hear from, even though they hurt me in one way or another, makes me have hope that we all can be gracious.

I guess this post was somewhat inspired by today. Today was someone’s birthday that I used to be close to, and decided to send a little note. The relationship had its many ups and downs and at the end of the day, it was better to be apart. The end of this relationship made me realize that there is a whole world out there and I needed to seek it out. And I did. Although it took me a while to really understand why things happened the way it did, I realize now why. I no longer feel negativity or resentment, but happiness towards that person that did me wrong in the past. We’ve all grown, and a little email saying “thanks” made me realize that person had been able to get over whatever it was before towards me. Of course, this is all under assumption, but I’m sure I have the right idea about it.

Earlier, I had a conversation about the future, again. I’m just too impatient about it and I just need to stop feeling that way. It’s hard to deal with seeing people around you moving forward in relationships, while you’re still in the same place. I really just need to be patient. (or so he says.)

I guess the point of this post is that little things like remembering special days and getting acknowledged, just living day by day and getting closer to the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, and cute doggies can go a long way.

P.S. Linkbait passed away this past weekend. Poor lil guy.
