"I kissed a girl and I liked it"

Stop everything!

That's the exact thing that went through my mind when I first heard Katy Perry's "I Kissed a Girl". Granted, I was driving so there's only so much stopping I could really do without a red light.

But yea.. I don't really know what to say considering how there are many songs out there about partying, kissing, sex.. and in heterosexual minds we never really think whether it's a boy or girl but simply by default would conjure an image of our attraction. So now there is a song without a doubt of a girl singing about another girl. Interesting. Not making a judgement whether bad or good. Just interesting. I'm sure the guys love this song. :) After all, it's like inherent for most boys nowadays to picture threesomes. Sign of the times, I guess. Although apparently in the 90s someone else wrote a song like this.

Anyway, at the end of all pondering, it doesn't really matter what deep nonsense come up in my head. It's a catchy tune. And I'm sure it's getting the singer some attention.

A Midsummer Day's Dream

The summer solstice is upon us once again and I am being one with the nature, sitting in my backyard, typing on my computer. Hey. It's the best of both worlds. The robin chirps, the scent of my jasmine plant fill my nostrils, and the bright gaze of my computer entertains my brain synapses.

I've been getting so much more into gardening so this little backyard retreat is the perfect place to relax on a sunny Saturday. For more info on my garden, check out http://serendipity-garden.blogspot.com. Yup, it gets its own blog. That's how obsessive I've been with it. That and my credit card bills of over $250 for garden crap like plants and mulch. I finally know what the purpose of mulch is!

Besides being overjoyed with my sense of productiveness, just the mere satisfaction of this little garden of Eden is enough. Everywhere I look is green or colored by some pretty flower I spent a couple of bucks in. There's also a blackberry tree, (as I now realize) in my backyard where this adorable chipmunk loves to munch from every day. It reminds me that I can find some natural beauty in this little sector of my universe. Granted it can't compare to Hawai'i.. but hey, I'll take what I can get.

This summer, I totally plan on not taking every sun-filled, hot day for granted because in a couple of months, I'll be back to wondering why the hell I came back to the mainland.

Oh yea, I'm back to having almost chronic bronchitis again. Gee, and I've so missed it the last 2 years.... :-P

Mad Money

Just watched the movie. Lesson relearned.. "When you get greedy, that's when you get caught." Not like it's a lesson I know from experience, mind you. But after watching countless movies and reading many stories.. you do notice this trend. Just like in this movie.. they began just to get some money to start with but then this one lady was so used to having a high lifestyle that she couldn't stop. And eventually, they got sloppy. Or a couple of them got sloppy. Of course, since it's a movie, all's well that ends well. But realistically, noone could get away with that.

In any case... the bigger lesson to learn is just to be good with the money you have. And if you have lots, don't spend it so blatantly cuz then people will be after you. :)

lol okay this is a rambling blog, but whatever. I just spent freakin 3 hours scrapbooking!
