What is Luxury?

Is it through designer brands... no maybe it's through the amount of money you have/make...
Is it that one of a kind couture gown that every celebrity starlet owns?
no it has to be those heels with the red sole...christian louboutins that's it,
Is it fame?
Is it owning a mansion in the vineyards of France?
No it cant be, because luxury is what you make of it-dinner with your family, coffee with an old friend, running without a destination, being captivated by a good novel, eating McDonald's Vanilla Ice Cream Cone, driving your car with the windows rolled down, playing monopoly, and watching an old classic at home on a Saturday night with your boyfriend.

Therefore LUXURY, is what you love, what you share, and what you already own. There's not much you can ask for, if what you want is what you already have.

College+Me= Undefined. After three and a half years I still don't know what want to do. This is really pathetic considering I'll be graduating next fall. Business has always been an interest of mine, but really how far can you go with a finance degree/International Business degree? Hopefully at some point I be able to get pass this undefined phase of my life, and possibly capture some opportunities. Maybe a change of scenery?

Chic X2

I've always adored Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen's fashion sense, and I practically grew up watching Full House. It's very interesting to me that they evolved into the Fashion industry rather than entertainment. Well actually, I do consider fashion as a form of entertainment...Their fashion line Elizabeth and James is tastefully done, and The Row is simple Chic. I just wish that they had a more affordable clothing line, of which normal people can actually afford to buy.

The Birthday has passed, but the celebration has just begun.

I finally turned 21 last week Tuesday, and I have still yet to really celebrate this new beginning. Although I went out with my friends and family last week, it doesn't feel quite a celebration that I would like it to be. After midterms, I be able to celebrate this Birthday correctly.

Late as usual.

I must be the only person in the world who continues to procrastinate even with the never ending consequences. With school, work, heck life in general I'd postpone it to the very last hour. This is a habit that needs to be broken, but for now I'll continue to settle for anguish and despair. My workload has started to consume all my time, but for some reason I can't surpass my undividing attention of my future plans. Gosh the pressure is on to finally make the final decision... Stress is killer, and I'm in need of some happiness.

Filling in the blanks_______.

Finally realized that I'm on the other side of the looking glass looking in....Always running never stopping for a chance of serendipity.

Destination: Limbo

I never in my mind thought that this is it, this is where I'll be forever. I missed the deadline for the study abroad program in London, and I'm still trying to figure out why I'm such a coward. It saddens me that I don't strive for more, or even want more of the opportunities being thrown at me. I'm at a state of dissonance; caught between my dreams , and the reality of my choice.

The Unconventional Couple

I have a midterm tomorrow for marketing and I got sucked into the new episode of Gossip girl. "Enough about Eve," has risen the bar for Vanessa's character, and tested Chuck's and Blair's relationship. Finally some spark, I was getting bored on Blair and Chuck's perfect relationship. Dan and Serena need to get back together, and so do Nate and Vanessa. There is still hope though, supposedly there is a threesome in the upcoming episodes. I wonder who it'll be? can't wait till next week's episode: How to succeed in Bassness. It seems that they are doing a Halloween episodes 20s theme? I love the outfits, great idea for a costume. Time to really crack down, and start studying. If only I had something to keep me up, I've become immune to coffee and Redbull...

I'm Currently feeling so insecure of my life. I still don't know which direction to take, and it seems as though if time is running out for choices. The deadline for the study abroad program for spring of '10 is Oct. 15, and for some reason I keep hesitating. I need to finally decide what I want out of myself, and possibly my future.

So Long Sweet Summer...

I did not realize that Fall is finally here until today that is. During my Business Finance class that's when it finally hit me, I'm never going to see Kailua or Lanikai beach for at least another month... I quite depressing actually I return to my glowing white self in no time. I've pretty preoccupied with my registration for school, I swear this must be the year of college bound students, all the classes I needed were gone. Every year when I registered I have a good chance in getting every class I need, but this year there weren't even bad classes left. After seeing my advisor I stumped yet again, for that I thought I wouldn't be able to graduate till another three years, but to my surprise I can graduate with my double major in SPRING OF 2011! omg. Now I'm in a panic to figure out if I want to study abroad or not. For the time being the pros and cons seem to be even, but it needs to be decided before Spring of 2010. Maybe I should flip a coin or something...hmmm...Lastly I am just going to continue to rant in this post due to the fact that I'll be paying a total of $500 for books this semester-I won't even go into detail with my tuition predicament. Which means bye bye to my new Mac Powerbook, a Pink sony digital camera, and that Pink Miu Miu Satchel that I should have bid for on ebay! These are hard times...

With that I wanted to cheer myself up with some fresh fall looks...

Japanese Fabulous Fashion Magazines

I love magazines in general, but when it comes to full fashion/street/beauty tips I turn to Japanese Fashion Magazines. Sadly I cannot read Kanji very well, so when I see something that catches my eye I have my boyfriend translate the words ^_^. I do not have a actual favorite, I venture out to all types from ViVi, JJ, Nylon, OGGI, MISS, Jelly, CanCam, 25ans, etc. All general in all these magazines are full of cute, chic, and fun styles that any girl can relate to-Lost in translation or not.
