Just a quickie because something fantastic happened just now!
I went outside for a cigarette (yes, I know they kill you and even worse, give you wrinkles...) and realized that tomorrow is the big day to move into the new place!!!
Anyway, as this realization dawned on me, I had a single tear of happiness (I will soon post pictures of how messy the batcave i.e. Maggie's bachelor is and you'll know why I say this), and just as this happened, the sun came out and reflected a rainbow off my single tear onto my glasses!
In conclusion, there is no pot of gold at the end of a rainbow, just tears. Tears of joy. Cheesy, but awesome!!!

confessions
Finally got the guts (well, a couple beers and a double rye soda will do that) to confess my adoration for a certain someone. Don't think it'll go well, but who knows. Cross my fingers... Wish me luck...

homesick...
Perhaps it's still a bit early to jump to the word "homesick" but I can't really think of how else to describe it. A combination of remorse but not regret, longing but not pining, and an unusual state of being stuck in limbo.
Although I've always recognized that everyone needs time alone for self reflection and self emancipation, now is not one of those times for me. Or maybe it's been a long time coming, and now that it's here, I'm at a loss for how to handle it. To begin with, I don't feel like I'm doing a hell of a lot of self reflection, so in my mind, this is no different than dicking around unemployed.
I think the fact that I haven't really settled in makes things worse, since we don't move into our new place until October 1st. It's difficult to call a place home when you don't have your own space and a comfortable ritual to fall into. Although the usual wake up, wash your face, brush your teeth, etc morning ritual are still in place, it happens at different times of the day, and after that happens, my ritual falls apart and I'm not sure what to do with myself again.
I know that this can't be blamed on moving to Vancouver, but moreso that I've always been so busy keeping myself busy. In Edmonton, I never had fewer than 2 jobs at a time - working the 60 hour weeks, having the extra cash on hand - it was always a way to maintain a high strung, fast paced lifestyle. I never wanted to stay at home, and if I ever did, it was only a forced means of pacing myself for the next wind of non-stop activities to come.
In hindsight, maybe it's true what they say: this sort of lifestyle is incredibly draining on both your body and soul, and worst of all, you never know it until it's too late. I feel a pang of guilt knowing I've unknowingly imposed a persona of hard partying nights, gluttonous eating habits and excess unnecessary spending on my friends and those around me.
I have never thought anything of ordering 10-20 shots in a row at a bar; to me, this was simply the norm and the quickest, funnest way to accomplish the small feat of getting everyone, who wanted to be drunk, utterly smashed. But when I think back about all the people who have called me or texted me the next morning telling me about how they spent the night with Princess Porcelain, I feel ashamed knowing that I felt proud to be that hard partying friend.
Trying to cut down on alcohol, but instead of feeling like I'm in control and limiting my drinking, I simply feel as though I'm holding back on what could be a spontaneous out of control night. To this day, regardless of how many embarrassing, stumbling, vomiting nights we've had, I still can't help but enjoy the humor and lack of inhibition associated with them.
Anyway, before this post gets any more morbid, I suppose I'd better head out and enjoy the sun while it lasts...
Shoes of the day! Just got the Keep Benten Pretzels, check 'em out, they're super cute!!!

P.S.
Oddly enough, I keep waking up with puffy eyes, or developing puffy eyes in the middle of the day. Can one cry without knowing it...?

V-V-V-Va-va-voom Vancouver!
Had one of the worst errand days in history on Monday scrambling to get everything together before the big move on Tuesday...
To start, I made the grave mistake of thinking my last physiotherapy appointment was 1 hour later than it really was. Funny how a 1 hour time lapse can completely throw off the rest of the day (I was exactly 1 hour late to dinner later that night -___-;;). Then, to make matters worse, the guy I was supposed to meet to pick up a new cellphone forgot to come meet me. Now I know you're thinking, no biggie, Edmonton's not that big - BUT, if you put St. Albert into the equation...
Ended up being almost an hour late to meet Castle, my amazing tattoo artist, to fit in a bit more work on the Klimt piece. Luckily, he was super understanding even though we only got a 1.5 hour session in... Another stroke of luck - V came by and offered me an arm to bite on - which, by the way, is a heaven send when your leg is starting to twitch from the pain (I only wish I had taken photos to show the damage I left, and I say this regardless of how much True Blood I watch). I have to say, I think I am developing an odd affection for him...
*** I am adopting T's habit of referring to friends this way so that only some dirty laundry is aired ;)
Arrived at my own going away dinner 1 hour late (see!) but when you've got another stomach for lobster, it tastes just as good cold as it does hot... (thinking about this is making me drool, for contrast sake, I ate leftover sushi from a fridge that apparently might be broken this morning... sitting and waiting for the shits is the worst, apparently). Perhaps the late dinner was a blessing in disguise though, because we ended up staying so late that both C and K were able to join!! If you have never seen C eat before, think of a beautiful garburator...
Afterwards, we all went back to my house so that I could finish packing and cleaning. A and P came by and joined, which I was thankful for, since mundane tasks seem to go by much faster when your friends are sitting on your couch nosebleeding to sultry pictures of fobs on the internet.
T also left me a goody in my mailbox!! My dear twin spoils me...
"Some things are hard to find because you're not meant to find them yet..."
Lancome Le Vernis Divine Lasting Color & Shine Limited Edition in 012 Pure Gold
I am wearing it as we type! It's a beautiful light 12K gold as opposed to a cheesy 24K gold, which I LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!
I only wish I had a camera to show you...
(photo courtesy from Lancome.com)
So it turns out my home weight scale isn't particularly accurate, because when I got to the airport, the lady made me take out 5lbs!! THAT WAS A PURSE, A SWEATER, AND A PAIR OF JEANS. Then, not only did she make me weigh one of my carry-ons, I wasn't allowed to bring my 3rd carry-on of shoes, even though I have on occasion carried 4 carry-ons... AND then to top it off, I had to pay the overweight baggage fee...
I hate Air Canada ( >_<),,|,
Anyway, arrived in Vancouver safely, and first stop, Aberdeen Mall in Richmond! Got my fix of DAISO, my beloved Japanese $2 store and picked up some eyelashes for myself and T. (Again, I am kicking myself for not having a camera, these lashes come with tops and bottoms, and the top is lined with silver glitter!)
First meal - Iki Sushi, a modern Japanese fusion restaurant that provides the option of brown sushi rice! (Another kick for not having a camera.) They had a ton of different types of maki, so it was a bit difficult to choose... we ended up going for the prosciutto roll, the bahama roll, and another roll from their specials - sundried tomato, cream cheese, and artichokes rolled in brown rice covered with pumpkin seeds, served with a balsamic reduction, as well as a salmon carpaccio and the fire tower - yam tempura fries served with spicy teriyaki, togarashi mayo, and hollandaise sauce...
The maki here was amazing, but I probably wouldn't order toro here again since it wasn't as buttery and fatty as I expect it to be, but overall a really awesome meal for less than $50 (for all that? STEAL!).
OH, I dyed my hair, finally!
I decided to try the Clairol Perfect 10 in Light Brown #6, since a different shade had worked well when I tried it out on my Mom. Used it on natural, non dyed hair and it turned out really red in my hair! I am upset, since I spent quite a bit of effort trying to get the red out... ( T_T);; Should I re-dye it?
AND to make matters worse, it doesn't match my extensions anymore... I think I'm going to cry...

Anyways, I suppose I should get out and check out the city a bit while Maggie is working...

you say goodbye, i say hello
You say yes, I say no
You say stop and I say go, go, go
I say high, you say low
You say why, and I say I don't know
You say goodbye and I say hello
Hello, hello
I don't know why you say goodbye
I say hello
Hello, hello
As usual, after weeks of waiting and talking about it, it feels like time fast forwarded itself and suddenly the big move is less than a week away.
I finally got around to booking my ticket to Vancouver - I'll officially be departing:
Tuesday, Sept. 15 at 1:55pm, YEG -->YVR
Good job Natalia... 5 days left and no serious attempts at packing have been made. In all honesty, packing 2 suitcases cannot be said to be a bona fide obstacle, but to those who know... well, you know.
I started watching True Blood as a means to procrastinate and avoid the inevitable cleanup/deciding what shoes I "need" (personally, I think the words "shoes" and "need" are blasphemous in the same sentence, so clearly, this is a struggle with my morals).
I think I am going to just pack them all and worry about it later... I realize that, really, I'm just bringing all my heels and sneaks since I really have no flats I care for...
(the only thing that Vegas screwed me for... NEVER EVER EVER speak aloud what you want to buy/are looking for that day because you will NEVER EVER EVER find it. I thought Tammy was bluffing, but try it, you'll regret it. Those Fendi flats still haunt me in my dreams... T_T They look like this but in the traditional Fendi zucca canvas with a distressed brown leather buckle)
On the bright side though, check out the boy I am checking out while trying to pack! He plays an old evil vampire named Eric... I want to (o ^ 3^)/ * him!! Clearly conducive to packing... But isn't he just the most beautiful modern day James Dean?
Maggie found us a garden level suite in the Strathcona area, just east of downtown/Granville area. It's cute in a quaint sort of way, with enough space to accomodate any friends who might want to visit *HINT HINT*NUDGE NUDGE*. It's still pending, but this seems to be the best prospect so far...
I am considering staying until the end of 2010 Winter Olympics now; seems like there's partying and money to be had, so we'll see how that flies...
OK, the infamous to do list:
- PACK PACK PACK
- Get bloodwork done
- Check out BC healthcare
- Clean my room so that my mom doesn't hold a garage sale in my name
- Figure out how to cram my stuffed toys into my suitcase
- Figure out how to not scuff my beautiful shoes without bringing their boxes
- Get the Kiss and the white rabbit finished up
- PARTY PARTY PARTY
Definitely going out this weekend one last time while I'm here.
BE THERE OR REGRET BEING SQUARE.

VEGAS - i'm ocd, obviously
ok ok, so anyone who knows me knows that i obsess about things that i'm looking forward to, and obviously vegas is the big thing for june. (OH, and i also officially graduated today hahahahhaha, that was fun too :D - pictures to come)
i have decided on more things to bring...
- lace baby doll mini dress (i wore this today for my convocation! my mom thinks it's too short, in other words, perfect for vegas hahaha)
- grey tube halter mini dress and turquoise teal baggy t shirt dress (i got these both on a recent shopping trip at winner's for a wicked deal! they're both pretty much one size fits all, or at least, all 3 of us ;p dear elastic hemlines, you are great.)
- cream snake skin gladiator platform sandals (also got these for a crazy good deal! if i wasn't too lazy to post pictures, i would. suffice to say that the heels are so high that when i stepped in to a minor groove on the pavement, i almost broke my ankle hahahah. or perhaps, that is not a laughing matter? O_o)
i am also thinking of getting a pair of platform sandals from brown's (YES they opened a store at west edmonton mall!), they're unusually similar to a pair by stella mccartney... the only difference is that the heel is cork instead of wood and the rest of the detailing is dark brown instead of cream. you like? i am really into the towering giant effect right now hahaha
(photo jacked from the fashion archives)
can i work these? i think so, i have the funniest/weirdest stuff anyway...
OH, i also bought a strapless tiered bandage dress by calvin klein in an azure indigo blue made of a thick satin like material. i can't decide whether i should keep it since it fits/looks alot like a classic dress, but at the same time i can't help but agree with alda that it's a bit common at the same time. strangely enough, a major deciding factor seems to be that the dress weighs ALOT. ridiculous right? new shoes... or new dress. i can only justify one :X
on the downside, i have noticed the formation of a serious belly and love handle area in my mid section. this is so uncool, i hate cardio! nevertheless, i must commit to working out now or risk looking like a muffin top squeezed into... ugh, well, you get the point. i also hate dieting but don't want to turn into serena williams. what a terrible dilemma!

AHHHH so excited, first time to vegas!
Planning to go to Las Vegas with my dear Tum and Kiss! Sosososososo excited even though it's more than a month away... although, the wait will be a double win since Tum is back at the same time!!! (o ^____^ o)(\/)
So far the best package we've found is staying at TI: Treasure Island... ~$500 for 3 nights, from Friday to Monday. Not bad hey?!
My ultimate favorite thing to do before trips is... MAKE LISTS! I already love making lists of things, but combine that with travelling... ahhh heaven <3
Shoes: Is is silly to bring a pair of shoes for each day? No way!!
- Flipflops for wandering in the hotel
- Sam Edelman gladiator platform heels
- Flats to walk around in? Which ones...?????
- What other heels?
Clothes: Hmmm... I hear it is insanely warm there... so no pants?
- Dresses!! Maybe the black AA dress? With gold tube bra...
- Shorts!
- What kind of tops... hmmm...
Maybe I should continue this later and get back to work... I am concerned about which suitcase to bring now too! And how much will I shop? How much room to leave in the suitcase? Ahhhhhh.... I can't wait!

Wasabi peas
One of my favorite snacks... WASABI GREEN PEAS! I don't know how such a simple thing can be so good, but believe me, these things are wicked addictive... in short, they are keeping me sane through this seemingly neverending session of final exams :*(
I'm not sure whether it is something to brag about, but yes, this is me procrastinating to write an entry about how good wasabi green peas are. Don't judge, don't judge, you know you want some EHEhheHEHEHE.
On the bright side, at 12pm sharp this Thursday, I will be free!!! YES, that means that: I, Natalia Wong, have officially graduated from university with a BSc Specialization in Immunology and Infection degree. Ok, so not quite officially, as my convocation isn't until June 4th, but I am still secretly very proud of myself.
( o ^___^ o )/
So... add oil! Only 2 days left!
This is Appachhai Hoppacchai. He makes me giggle to myself whenever I am stressed :]

lose with eloquence, smile
"Nosce te ipsum."
Know thyself. Know that leaving isn't synonymous with losing. Know that everything you pick up has to be put down. Be wise enough to know the answer, smile, and walk away. Stepping back is always the hardest part isn't it? It lets you see that everything isn't as you imagined it right? But it's okay. I don't mind.
As usual, "I'm sorry if I was cruel, I was just protecting myself..."
On the bright side, I am looking forward to catching up with an old friend! I have been craving Thai food for ages now, and the feeling of someone suggesting it is rather exhilarating, especially since Cavan has been rubbing it my face that he seems to have it daily for lunch.
Lately I've finally gotten sick of pho, especially after eating so much of it with Tammy that we both nearly puked in my car. I think the new resolution is to avoid Garden Bakery (a complete DEATH TRAP due to their crazy good snacks) and to stop eating pho at all times of day. Seriously. I'm starting to smell like a beef ball, but hopefully that's just in my head.
OH yea! I completely rearranged my room yesterday. No idea what I was on, but the only thing in it's original place is the bed hahaha. Also, I finally got the picture tile up and going, but I'm thinking of recopying the colorful photos in black and white so that it's more uniform. I really like it, but what do you think?
OH, yes another OH, I'm excited to try and see if I can give myself a fro using the new tiny hair straightener we got at Holt! If I succeed I will post pictures... :]
