Palm Springs Adventures

Hi everyone!!!! I know I haven't been keeping up to date on my blog but I haven't been too interesting this year. haha Well this weekend I went to Palm Springs because I needed a break! I might be a workaholic.... I work two jobs and want to get a third job as well. I never change but the goal is to find that one great job where you only want to do that and nothing else. So I left on Friday for Palm Springs due to a living social deal (they are great!!!) Got in, dressed up and went to a local pub hung out and got really competitive playing a bar game. There is a reason why I don't compete in sports and its not because I am able to take down a guy twice my size (true story). We drank our bottle of wine and got into the mineral water hot tub!!! Saturday, my friend and I slept in (and no it wasn't a guy friend or that kind of friend..... take your mind out of the gutter ppl!). Then we went hiking in Tahquitz Canyon which was a nice hike, not too strenuous and gorgeous. Flirted with a couple of hikers, went into the cold water, and fell down...... at the base before we even started! I swear I must be the most clumsiest person in the whole world. We haven't even started and I fall before I start the trail. We then got lost, saw the beautiful oasis and beat the rain! Went back to our room, slept, got ready for dinner, looked hot, bar hopped and came back and rested some more. Oh and did I mention we went off roading? Did I also mentioned I went in my Nissan Sentra and I am fairly sure I trespassed  on private property..... haha I swear, the things I get myself into! So last day, Jessica and I went on the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway and it was AWESOME! The Tram rotates 360 degrees and the mountain was covered in a blanket of snow. Gorgeous!!! So we get to the top of the mountain and its snowing so Jessica and I are acting like little kids who never seen snow before. So went inside and then went outside and played in the snow. Now consider this, we are a pair of LA girls, we only have jeans, tennis  shoes, and a coat. We go outside, scream, jump in the snow, touch it, throw at each other, take pictures, and then run back inside! One thing is for sure......snow is COLD!!!! So we go inside and try to get some feelings back in our hands and pray we didn't get frost bite. We walk around the gift store and then ask when is the next tram down. 4 minutes (the guy with the sexy Aussie accent tells us) so what do Jessica and I do? Run back outside and do everything over again with a new thing.... I fell in the snow.... twice! Lol it was so funny but I mean I am one of the clumsiest, accident prone girl I know. So I dust the snow off and we run inside and catch the tram in time. Great times in Palm Springs!!! :)

It happened again!

Every time I go out and about, I always see an old classmate and I always look blah! So today I went to tutor my next door neighbor's kid. I went after my dog grooming job so I just changed shirts, (made sure I didn't smell like dogs :(  ) and then went to the job. So after the tutoring, was about to leave the library when I hear my name...... it was my a classmate since middle school in which we also had some history and he looked good! And I looked bad! I swear, I am going to start wearing heels  and a houchie dress since I never know who I am going to run into! This was not the first time that has happened, every time I run into a high school classmates they always look goo and I look so ick! Everyone recognize me and I know its shallow of me to complain, but seriously you guys know me so its ok, but I need a make over! Well one of these days I am going to look bomb ass fine and you know whats going to happen? I won't run into anyone lol!

So many classic moments this week. The first one is that I went to go and see the Green Hornet (which is awesome) and I was watching the movie trailers. Well the trailer for the movie Thor, I actually screamed out loud when the main actor walked on screen without his shirt. Yeah out loud so everyone heard me! I was embarrased and my friend laughed at me but gosh dang! See the trailer and in the 1:27 mark, you will know what I am talking about. Damn I want to do certain things with him!!!

Second classic moment: I took my baby to work with me one day, bathed her, got her looking pretty, and  then decided to walk her to the bank with me. As we are approaching the bank, an older lady and her husband walks by, look at Lily and said in Spanish, "What a fat dog!"...............OH HELL NO! You did not talk about my dog and call her fat and if you even dare, you better make sure I don't know the language! So what do you think I did??? I answered her back in Spanish, "My dog is not fat!"  I don't know if she was more surprised that I called her on it or that I a white girl knew Spanish! So she said that I was right and my dog was not fat and started to pet her and said that she was pretty which Lily was since she had a cute bow on. Moral of the story.... DON'T TALK ABOUT MY DOG OR YOU ARE GOING DOWN!

Well now to the most fun part....... my dating life! I am not dating. The End


LOL JK! Well I am not really dating anymore since I started Grad school. Its a lot of work keeping in track whos who and I work as well so any free time I have, I rather sleep or hang out with my friends. Grad school is my new boyfriend right now and he demands a lot from me! I mostly trying to find new friends so I am not a big loser but its hard! Its like that movie, "I Lover You Man", its not easy meeting friends once you are out of school but it is possible. Plus I rather workout so I can get sexy legs and wear mini skirts and bend in front of Jessie Soren and Jessi Floto and say, "Opps I dropped something" lol (Only you two would really appreciate it!)

Well I hope you all are doing well at Humboldt and I miss you all! More fun and crazy Jamie stories are to be posted soon!!!

The Busy Weeks

Dates, Russians, and Grad School.... OH MY! Hi everyone so much has happened since the last blog I don't know where to begin! Well as some of you may know, I have been dating several people. So to break it down, here's a listing
1) Vincent- Hockey game, great seats! Might go out with him again for dinner but nothing serious
2) Anthony- Wants to become a producer, 6'3'', hot, nothing serious
3) Joel- Nice guy but too nice for me.... won't be able to handle me, more friends
4) Stephen- Jewish actor, hot, currently my #1
5) Ryan- manager at hardware store but lives like 40miles away and has a 2 year old
6) Cody- went ice skating, more friend date, not sure that hes my next best friend but someone to hang out with when everyone is busy.

Ok, got it? Well as much fun it was dating all these nice men, I have a new boyfriend.... Graduate School! And OMG Grad school is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My first day of school was last Saturday and it was a lot of fun and awesome! Well it was an easy day because it was the first day but we have a lot of reading to do! 4 books are required for the class and even though it is not hard, its a lot of work and time! We'll see how it goes, I am sure one week you will see on facebook that I am having a great time and the next week I will be crying and saying its hard lol.

 Well I still haven't been able to find a full time job in my field but I am currently working at the dog groomer place which was voted number one by the San Gabriel Valley!!! Yeah Yeah! I still get injured almost everyday, its a very physical and tiring job but I love my boss and coworkers and when I get home I feel like I did a great job even though I want to knock out at times.

My first day, I worked a 10 hour shift and my friend Jessica and I have been talking about going to a Spanish club that night. I called her after work and asked her if she still wanted to go out and she said yes. S here I am in my car, worked 10 hours in a job that I haven't done for a couple of months and my feet are tired, you know what I did? I sucked it up, went and got an ice coffee from McDonalds (Vanilla with an extra shot of vanilla and cream) came home, showered, dressed, and put on my 3 inch sexy ankle boot stiletto heels. Crazy? Yeah but a true So Cal girl sucks it up and looks hot for a great night out.So she comes over to do my make up since I have yet to discover the art of applying make up and doing my hair, and we go out. We are playing some Spanish music in the car and I start dancing and getting pumped up for a great night. So for those who are wondering whats the difference between Spanish and English clubs, its not necessary the music but more the men. If I go out to dance willing and not have a couple of drinks in me, I want to dance with men from the motherland. Jamie, what are men from the motherland? Well I am glad you asked that question, men from the motherland are men who are from Mexico, Central America, and South America. Those men know how to dance and I don't just hump your leg like the men in English clubs. I don't want to be danced raped again! Anyways, I was able to stay on my feet for two hours dancing until my feet can't handle it anymore. So Cal girl or not, my feet don't care, they are tired! So did I get to dance with men from the motherland? NO! I think we came on couples night because there were no single men when we got there and my friend and I were the only single girls there so what did we do? We danced with each other and let me tell you something, I am not a good enough of a dancer on my feet like I am sitting down and driving lol. The one thing I don't like its that saying, if someone is good on the dance floor they will be good in bed. That's not true because otherwise I would be AMAZING on the dance floor! Yeah I said it!

Anyways so here we are dancing when we see guys by the bar, single and hot. So I tell my friend Jessica to go and ask one of them to dance since I can't dance anymore and here's the thing about my friend, I love her but sometimes I want to smack her. She said new year, new her and how she wished she could be like me and go out and date guys and be comfortable with the opposite sex like me, etc.... So I told her that she should go up and ask a guy to dance, if he says no then he says no and if he says yes then he says yes. It is better than to ask a guy out on a date and its a babyy step. So she pretends to start looking and considering it and I know shes BSing so I remind her what she told me and that she will never get over her issues if she doesn't take initiative and take the first step to recover. So here we are, getting into an argument in the club and about to start yelling when the Russians come! There were these 3 hot guys around and they ask her out to dance and me as well. I go up to be poliet but this guy doesn't know how to dance  and granted, I don't either but I tend to start leading and I don't think he liked it but I was getting bored! So a while later we end up leaving , no not with them, and go to King Taco!

So thats whats been going on: working, grad school, dancing, and dating, lots ,and lots, and lots of dating.... kind of tired lol

Back at home, away from Humboldt

So this is going to be a blog about me being at home and my adventures. First, I have to start making friends, second, I have to start lossing weight, and third, pass grad school.

First: So my friend Jessica( by the way, wanted to start a blogg so I signed her up for one, and yet doesn't know what to say)  and I went to Starbucks today and we were talking about us need to make friends. Ok first of all, its not easy making friends like it used to be. When I was at school I made friends with my classmates or with fellow peers in a club (fencing club). So what does one do when they are no longer attending school and all their friends are so far away? This is when I Love You Man  comes into play. More and more I am starting to think that I am going to have to ask my friends (which is only 3 down here) to set me up on dates where one will french kiss me after getting the wrong idea and call me a whore when she sees me hugging some other person. Ok besides me not getting married at the end of this journey, I would like to get to know some people to go and hang out with when Jessica gets bored of me. So what to do? I could make friends with me new classmates that I will meet in grad school but those classes are only once a week and if they are moms, then they will be busy (also just because I look like a mom, does not mean fellow moms will accept me into the club). Pole stripping exercise class anyone? Yeah if I could afford it and as much as I like that my friends are prettier than me, I don't want one that can strip better than me. So the following blogs will be my journey (and the adventures I have with Jessica) in making new friends so I won't be a loser and cry myself to sleep at night.


P.s. UPS lost my shoes and won't take responsibility for it!
