Well, it seems that bassman and I are neck-and-neck on Words with Friends. We are now tied, 2-2. I demolished him during the last game. Yes, DEMOLISHED. He said he was holding back. Whatevs. LOL Game 5 has commenced, and he's a bit ahead of me. But, I'd been distracted, so that's my story and I'm sticking to it. Haha We talk a lot of trash, bassman and I. You've no idea. LOL

Listening to some Level 42, "Dream Crazy". Have I mentioned that I'm crushing on Nathan King? Just throwing it out there! LOL ;) It's cool. He doesn't read this blog anyway. Haha!

It has finally happened...

...JT asked about me!!!

I'm completely stunned that he did! This is a first. I'm really surprised because I have not travelled outside SoCal to see Rockapella in years, so for him to ask why I wasn't at the Napa, CA show was completely out of left-field. It was only about 3 years ago that he actually started calling me by my first name, and not "Hey!" anymore. Now, this! :)

Now, if only my current crush would ask about me too. *sigh*

"Can you read my mind?
Can you picture the things I'm thinking of?
Wond'ring why you are,
All the wonderful things you are..."

Superman II. It's been a while since I've seen this movie! Love, LOVE Christopher Reeve. He will always be The Man of Steel to me. :)

David Crowder Band - How He Loves

This song always gets me... Love it!

"We are His portion, and He is prize
Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes.
If His grace is an ocean, we're all sinking."

What the guys think of your fashion.

Here's an article that I stumbled upon whilst web-surfing. I want to know what my guy friends (or just all the guys in general) think of this.

Let's try a proper post, shall we?

OK, so I've been living in Fullerton now for about a week, officially. It's a nice, quiet neighbourhood, very close to the freeway and the amenities are quite accessible and close. There are 3 Starbucks stores within a mile in every direction possible. So, that makes me a happy caffeine addict enthusiast. And we're still quite close to family (Cerritos), so that's a plus. Haven't quite unpacked everything yet, but that will happen eventually. Or we may just keep everything where they are right now, in the event that we move back to Canada. In that way, we don't have to go through the hassle of packing everything up again! :)

I've been unemployed for 13 days now. It hasn't really hit me 'til now, since last week, I was busy with the move, I didn't really have time to think about it. But now that I'm pretty much settled here at our new digs, it has started to hit me. I've been sending out my resumé to anyone and everyone. I'm praying someone would call already! I can't stand not doing anything at all! And it's actually making me lazy! I'm trusting that the Lord will provide employment for me in due time. Please keep me in prayer.

The situation with the object of my affection is still a situation, but I choose not to dwell on it or him. Maybe not hearing from him is a good thing. Thank God for little "distractions" (e.g. my current crush). ;)

Bummed that I won't get to go on the Rockapella Cruise at the end of this month, for obvious reasons (and some not-so obvious). A few friends are going, including Sherry, (a.k.a. Scott's Sherry), the Everetts (Wendy & Jeff), and Jenny. I'm looking forward to hearing stories! LOL It will be quite an interesting cruise, I have to say. I really wish I could go! The next cruise, perhaps.

One bright spot of being unemployed is that I'm looking into writing songs, again. I've picked up the guitar once again, and have been practicing quite a bit. I'm hoping to set up my keyboard soon, as well, and get back to playing that, too. I've been inspired lately, by all these people/musicians that I've met in the past year or so. I want to get those creative juices flowing once more. One thing I need to start doing again, is do vocalises in the morning to get my voice back in shape. I miss my singing voice, especially when I was still a Voice major at Biola. My voice was in such great shape back then, I could sing practically anything! These days, I haven't been singing quite as much. The last time I did some serious singing was at my friends Jed & Crystal's wedding, in November! I haven't really done much, since then! How sad is that? That's one of my goals this year, to get my voice back in top form! I've been listening to my recordings lately, just the rough ones, and my vibrato has slowed down, I am not hitting the notes - I'm either sharp or flat! Blgh. I need to get serious with singing again.

Well, I suppose this is as proper a post as I can do for now, since I have to head out. Need to have my picture taken to renew my Canadian passport. I'm getting ready, just in case. ;)

I wish I was bold enough.

All moved in, FINALLY! Took an entire week, mostly disposing off of all the junk we've accumulated over the years (and we thought we got rid of most of it when we moved about 2 years ago), but we finally moved everything into our new place! Now, we just need to worry about organizing our stuff, and it seems like we're finding more stuff to get rid off! Ahhh!!! But, that's perfectly fine. At least, the major moving is all done!

I know. This post is short and sweet. It's late and I'm tired, so I'll call it a night. I'll write a proper post tomorrow.

Alright...

So, I may have man-handled Level 42's legendary bassist Mark King's hand (the right one, to be specific), when I asked him if I could touch his hands. When he said to "have a go at it", I kinda did. LOL I held it for a bit, and kinda started caressing/massaging it, while he was talking to someone else. He didn't seem to mind at all. I think he might have liked it, too! LOL He didn't bother pulling it away. I had to stop myself, because I was getting carried away, I was close to licking his hand..! No joke! I know, I know. But he was so lovely and down-to-earth, and bloody charming, it's hard not to be drawn to him. The fact that he hugged me and kissed me twice was just the cherry on top!

Don't know why I had to share that (again). A friend brought up the Anaheim show Level 42 had, where I met the band and MK, and it just reminded me of my first meeting with Mark. ;)

Tales of the Unemployed - Day 1

Well, today was my first day of being unemployed. It doesn't feel like I am unemployed, yet. Today just felt like a typical day off. Tomorrow's another day. We'll see how it pans out.

It probably won't hit me, the fact that I'm unemployed, until next week. Since this week, I will be busy packing and moving our things into the new place my mom and I will be moving to, in Fullerton. Can't wait.

OK, I should be sleeping. My eyes are drooping, I can barely see what I'm typing, and I probably will stop making sense in a few. So, good night.
