I have no idea how i woke up today. I constantly read/facebook/TV for HOURS before I go to bed. The idea of having a TV in my room is magical, minus the "can't go to sleep without it" problem. The house rule has always been no TV in your room, ever. It has recently been, no TV in your room until you are 21. It just so happened this rule occured around the time i turned 21 (lucky me). I think last night I went to my room around 10:30pm right after work, yet found myself still self-indulging in "facebook-stalking" random people I barely remember from high school until about 3am.

I think this whole giving up soda & desserts for lent has kept me with a boost of energy regardless of the time. I mean I've also tried to conquer my hatred for working out by almost forcing it every morning... and doing Wii Fit. I think it's probably one of the most rediculous things I've ever bought considering my parents have a gym in the basement. If that wasn't going to work, I have no idea how this has!

Anyways, just this week I will work like 52 hours between my jobs. I don't know how I'll ever fit in the oh so important weekly reality tv shows I feed off of. Or finishing this awesome book I borrowed from a friend. It's called The Host and it's by the same author as the Twilight phenomenon. Now I will say I have been just as obsessed with that set of books as the 12 year old neighbor kids but this one is just as good but more geared towards "adults". Random fact: I just today found out, the author is morman and will not put a sex scene in the books unless they are married.. oh the morman's.

I can't wait for the end of the week. I go visit Chris again, and even though it's for like a day and a half, the 6 hour round trip is totally worth it.

I will enjoy the time away from reality.

I'm honestly excited about California more and more each day. My mom keeps bringing me to different stores (walmart/target/ikea) and i am becoming obsessed with apartment decorating shopping. I found this awesome wooden Vegas painting at Target. I feel like that store has become my drug of choice, along with online window shopping and Hello Kitty. I could go at almost any time and find something I rarely need, but always want. I'm contemplating going back once a day to see if the painting is still on the shelves or has gone down a bit in price.

My basic to-do list for this month includes:
- Finish my loan for school (or good luck moving for no reason)
- Work 40-50 hours each week
- Copy an abundance of movies, courtesy of our new stylist at the salon "Smith"
- Apartment search, apartment search, apartment search (not a problem since I regular look for hours a day)
- Possible roommates? no luck yet.

I don't think I truly realized how much money it is to live in Orange County... or I at least hoped it was a joke. For now my non-stop hours at the salon & restaurant have put more ease on my situation but I'm sure within a few months my hard works money will surely deplete. The weather change will definitely make my choice to move reassuring.

For now, I'll enjoy highs of 50's and prepare for my move.
