지금

친한 친구 하나를 보내고 나니 기분도 이상시리 꿀꿀하고.... 하지만 내가 소중히 아끼는 친구가한 선택에 만족하면서 이번 주말을 보냈다. 시애틀에서 돌아온 후 많은 정리와 다시 이 도시에 익숙해지는데 정말로 오랜 시간이 걸린거 같다. 끊임없이 항상 바빳고 성격상 가만히 있질 못하니 나한테 많은 시간이 있었을수가 없었다. 정신없이 일하고 내 자신 뒤치닥거리하는 것도 벅찬데 누구를 만나서 더 복잡한 생활을 하기가 싫었던것도 사실. 변명으로 들리나? 하지만 지금은 한숨 돌리고 난후, 내가 필요한 시간이 흐르고 나니 이제는 누구를 만나도 될거 갈은 느낌이 드는데...

오랜만에 한국 드라마를 봐줬쥐- 고맙습니다. 거기에서 나오는 장혁보고 완전 갔다. 난 별로 연예인들한테 환상을 갖거나 정신 못차려 본적이 전혀 없었다. 내가 아는 여자애들이랑 달리.... 그럴만한 사람도 보지 못했고. 하여튼 한국 사람이 그렇게 생기기는 힘든거 같다. 요즘 나오는 애들한테는 별 매력 못느낀다. 시스타 보이같이 생긴 남자들은 딱 질색. 에니웨이 장혁의 위앞니보고 교정시키고 싶단 생각을 잠시 했지만서도 그 얼굴에 그게 또 매력이고 그 이빨고치면 지금보다 매력이 떨어질거 같아 그냥 만족. ㅎㅎㅎ 장혁같은 남자만 나오라고 해, 내가 기꺼이 만나주마. ㅋㅋㅋ

it's over!!!

Finally, one of my best friends got married and is now someone's wife!!! It still hasn't hit me yet, but I am glad that this was one of the best weddings I've ever been to. Not because I was in it or because it was my best friend's wedding. All the hard work and many days of preparation has paid off, because we all had such a good time although our shoes killed us. I am also glad that tonight, she will be wearing the nighty that I gave to her. All I can say now is that I am so so proud of my friend to have met someone that cares for and loves her so so much.

successful party

Today's bridal shower was a big success! My other best friend, RP, and I thought out everything and things worked out very smoothly. Let me just say that I am glad that it is over and done with. Two more weeks and my best friend will be married and this whole thing will be over. It will be a bitter sweet day for many of us. Cheers to all of us!

annoying night

My friend's bachelorette party this weekend turned out all right. It first started with checking into our hotel suite- that was sweet. After dropping off our stuff there, we took a humid ride to dinner at a restaurant that didn't have AC working and ice in my water melting at a faster rate than I could gulp down the whole cup. The special activity that followed after we came back to our suite was not what we expected and was surprised with a substitute that didn't quite satisfy any of us. Because my day started early yesterday with patients starting at 9am, I was already getting tired and was ready to nap. I mean, my schedule yesterday was crazy and as soon as I was done with work, I fussed up to get ready ASAP then picked up another friend, so there was no chance for any type of break not to mention having time to nibble on anything. The night continued after the uninteresting activity- we chilled for a little while, then made a trip to a club that left with me with not many choices. We all cabbed to the club, intending to get buzzed, but as far as I can tell, I was not getting buzzed for the life of me- no matter how hard I tried... My plan left me much soberity ironically and little dinero after spending $$$ on alcohol.. I mean, I was buzzing for a total of two minutes when I gulped down several glasses of white peach sangria in an empty stomach. Seriously, my stomach was eating itself after waiting 10 hours since the breakfast. Well, after stuffing my sad stomach with a bunch of everything and lots of my favorite mussels, that buzzness completely went away and didn't know to come back even after pouring in martini and LOTS of shots in a row. I finally did what I usually do not do- I gave up. No motivation to dance the night away, no motivation to drink anymore. Time flew by watching other do dance-offs and I was more annoyed than ever that I decided to just head back. There were more things or I should say 'guys' that annoyed me throughout the night, and one even came off a little scary, but it was all good when I went back to the hotel and just chilled. All of us woke up early this morning and sat around talking about nothing and everything. On a day like today, it would be best to sit on the beach and nap, but I am sticking to my plan to get back in the game in the world of golf, so I am going to rest up and swing away this afternoon!

Christian Louboutin or iPhone?

Ah, what a dilemma.... What do I do?
I am so tempted to get an iPhone as a b-day gift for myself. I already spent way too much $$$ last month on a pair of Louboutin pumps. Do I return the shoes and get an iPhone instead???
My dilemma continues....

golf and life

OMG.... finally started practicing golf again in two year! I have no idea what kept me so busy the last couple of years, but it felt good to swing again. One thing i realized again which I had forgotten for some time is that it is seriously time to change out my irons. I've looked at some Callaway, Taylor Made, and Ping irons yesterday.... The ladies' clubs are definitely way too light for me and will be such a dramatic change from my Ping Zing swing. I grabbed some Taylor Made graphite clubs and those felt pretty good- turns out those are men's. I guess I'll just have to get men's clubs once again. More research to do in the next few weeks... That's more things I have to do... This is the kind of life I wish to have when I'm retired- hopefully early- play golf in the morning and chill under the sun on a beach everyday.... When I was in college I thought it would be cool to retire when I'm 30, and I really thoguht that I could make it work. If you asked me now, I would tell you I do not want to retire at age 30 (or perhaps I should say I can't, hahaha), because there's still so much more to do in life.... just so much!

비

이렇게 좋은 날씨인데도 불구하고 집에 있다니. 난 멀쩡한데 자꾸 내 몸이 나보고 쉬라고 해서 오늘은 집에 붙어있는다... 아까 쇼핑 잠깐 한거만 빼고 오늘은 별로 한게 없네... 가만히 있는 성격이 아니라서 이런 날엔 비라도 오면 내 맘이 편안할텐데.

비오는 날은 기분이 좋다. 사람들이 많이 나와 있지않고 제각기 집에 들어가 있다는 생각에 기분이 좋아진다. 반면에 비많이 오는 날에 나가있음 짜증... 저번 화요일같이... 다운타운나가서 쇼핑하고 비취에 가려고 했던 나의 단아한 생각의 버블이 터져버렸음. 비가 쭉쭉 쏟아내려서 잘가지도 않는, 살것 하나도 없는 가게안에서 한시간이 넘게 죽치고 있었다. 에니웨이, 오늘같은 날은 그런 비가 왔음 좋겠다. 그러면 답답한 마음도, 짜증이 나는 마음도 조금이라도 시원할거 같다.

awkward lingerie shopping

This weekend, I finally put my ass down at home and really didn't do much. Several annoying things have been happening and I took it as a sign to stay put at home. Nonetheless, there's stuff to be done and I have been procrastinating shopping for some gifts, so I dragged my ass out and went shopping despite the fact that I was feeling like crap. One of my best friends is getting married the end of this month and I am also arranging her bridal shower. I've been too busy to get anything done and I was feeling bad. Anyway, I found a few stuff at Saks and knowing her all too well to know what she would like for her wedding gifts, I picked out some.... hmmm..... rather revealing, provacative lingerie. My friend and I are not the same size by all means, but I had to try those on to see the silhouette and to get an idea of how it would fit on her. Well, as I was making trips to the fitting room, the lady working there was chuckling! WTF. She was probably thinking I was shopping for myself and assumed that I was buying those to impress someone- uh, 난 그럴사람도 없걸랑요... 젠장... then I thought, there's nothing wrong with that. She wouldn't have chuckled at guys shopping for lingerie.
Anyway, I did get something very sexy and sophisticated for my friend. And while I was at it, I ended up getting something pretty for myself as well. Perhaps I could impress someobody... hehe.
