You don't notice.

You have no idea how unhappy I am. You have no idea how much I'm hurting. You don't care. Let me go.

"If i'm not the one thing you can't stand to lose
If i'm not that arrow to the heart of you
If you don't get drunk on my kiss
If you think you can do better than this then i guess we're done
Let's not drag this on
Consider me gone"

I'm sore all over

2 hour workout today, uh huh uh huh uh huh. Felt good. Dance class was kind of a snooze. I like the other teacher better. But SET class was good. I didn't eat very healthy today :( lots of carbs. The gym is a germy germ town. I swear people don't wipe down their sweat off of the equipment. PISSES ME OFF! I am going to load up on anti-bacterial wipes because that shits not flying with me. I love how I go there to be healthy and feel good, only to come out with a six pack and rashes all over me. Hey gym! Lepers aren't sexy. I need to bring a bigger towel or something and keep that shit on the DL. Another thing that bugs me, anorexic girls who don't need to be at the gym. Go eat some ice cream and get healthy honey. Then maybe I can get my non-size zero ass, on that machine. They like socialize at the gym and use mats and workout benches as seats to gossip on. Another thing, is the stench you get stuck to sometimes. REALLY DUDE?, get some deodorant. It works wonders. I love holding my breath for my last 5 minutes of cardio, stuck next to the stinky dude. MAKES ME SO HAPPY.

15 Diet Tips

Happy EARTH Day!

I think people take the Earth for granted. We do not treat it the way we should. 4.6 billion years of awesomeness and we are murdering it. It makes me sad. Release your inner hippie and recycle or go plant a tree today, or go hug one :) We need to love our home, not destroy it.

London


I hope you are ready for me, because I am soooooo ready for you. (Am I weird that London reminds me of Peter Pan? I am such a Disney child).

Think of the presents you've brought
Any merry little thought
Think of Christmas, think of snow
Think of sleigh bells Here we go!
Like a reindeer in the sky

You can fly! You can fly!
You can fly! You can fly!

Soon you'll zoom all around the room
All it takes is faith and trust
But the thing that's a positive must
Is a little bit of pixie dust
The dust is a positive must

You can fly! You can fly!
You can fly! You can fly!

When there's a smile in your heart
There's no better time to start
It's a very simple plan
You can do what the birdies can
At least it's worth a try

You can fly! You can fly!
You can fly! You can fly!

Failure

I am lazy. I am the who destroys all my goals. I had a goal, a goal to go to community college, two years, that's it! I didn't know if I could do it. I know so many people who didn't do it in two. But I wanted to be different. Unfortunately the beginning math classes I had to take my first year set me back. 9 units, of un-transferable garbage. I finally had this teacher, who taught me everything from 3rd grade to college algebra in a matter of 2 semesters. I actually started to like math. I have never been good at math. I cop out. I feel dumb because I can't do normal, everyday math. I struggle with it, every damn day. Mad Minutes back in elementary school would ruin my day and that stupid line you had to draw after your last problem you finished, I did maybe ten problems (there's 50 on a sheet). In third grade, if I didn't pass my math mastery I was going to be held back. I cried all the time, I cried while I did my flashcards every night, I cried when I did my math homework. I was pissed at myself for never understanding it. I would work on my flashcards all the time. It was like extra homework on top of my normal homework. I LOATHED math. I finally took my test and I PASSED. I never really "passed" math, but I passed 3rd grade. I still never understood it, but I didn't care. That was the problem, because it haunted me all the way through junior high, high school, and now, in college. I finally reached Math 105, I know this sounds pathetic to those of you who are in statistics and calculus, but for me this was huge. I started off great, till I took my first test. I understood all the math but my teacher doesn't give partial credit. I didn't have a= on one of my problems, got the 5 minute problem right, but forgot that a=, and no credit. I about died. Second test wasn't any better. I decided to drop (today actually), Cal State Fullerton, won't accept me anyway because I needed 60 units, now that wasn't going to happen. What's wrong with 3 years at a community college? Well today god slapped me in the face. I dropped that math class and got my ACCEPTANCE letter in the mail, guess how many units I needed..... 9. The amount of units that my baby, doesn't count for shit, pluses and take-away, math classes took up of my time and money. Math, you won. I am staying another year at Santiago and I owe it all to you.

Fantastic Sams is not FANTASTIC!

Let me just tell you, the old ($plurging) Erin would have been at her favorite salon spending at least $50 on a trim and would not be caught dead at a Fantastic Sams. The new Erin is "trying" to save money. Sooo I figured how bad could it be? Maybe I'm just a Prima Donna? I walk in and there are little boys everywhere! First clue, to a bad experience. Then I see everyone walking out with their hair wet, like dogs! Hmmm. I'm new to this whole thing, so I went with it. I sit on the seat, she tells me I have split ends, no shit, that's why I am getting a hair cut. She asks me how short I want it, in fear, I tell her only AN INCH. After that, she never said another word to me. She shampooed and conditioned for like a minute. I don't know if that's normal, but my salon massages your head for a good ten minutes. I walk over to her chair of death and she starts cutting. It's ok.. not too bad. Then all of the sudden I see her comb my ear and it yanked out my earring. Trying not to be rude, I didn't say anything because I didn't want her to fuck my hair up. So I was quiet. Then she keeps cutting. She spins me around and I have 5 inches cut off. Awesome, If I wanted to hack my hair off, I definitely wouldn't do it here! Then she takes my cape off. I call it a cape, get over it. My hairs still soaking wet. I give her a weird look. "you want me to blow it dry (asian voice)"-lady, "Umm yeah?"-me, "that's $10 more (asian voice)"-lady. "$10? never mind, so do I put it into a ponytail?"-me, "uhh yeah (asian voice)"-lady. I was judging by the shiteous hair cut, she wasn't a whiz with a blowdryer... I paid $23 for my "experience" and lost the backing to my earring. Needless to say I learned an important lesson. Don't be a penny pincher when it comes to beauty, get your ass to a real salon, and when you want to bitch about the price, look in the mirror (you'll realize, it's worth it) :(

Crazy Restaurants

Under water Restaurant


Sky Restaurant (150 ft up)
Bathroom Themed
Death Themed
Hospital Themed

A snuggie for the germaphobes

I want this for London when I sleep in hostels! But the feet zipped up.

Chanel Temporary Tats



I think these are awesome. Be a bad girl for one night, then wash it away. Pure genius.
But personally I think $75 is a bit too much for something that usually comes out of machine at a pizza parlor. What do you think?

babiesssss


melts my heart....

This is how I feel in math class

..not happy about school starting back up.

Internet Bible

Ridiculously funny.

Ellie's New Best Friend.


This is either really cute, or really disturbing. I can't decide. Ellie is mesmerized by Roxy, she'll get up on the screen and pounce and paw at Roxy. Roxy isn't into Ellie's "companionship", she strikes at the glass thinking Ellie is a big fat mouse.

2 new headbands


Decoupage is the best thing in the world!




One of the rad scarves I picked up (kinda reminds me of Betsey Johnson's rose pattern), I used it to re-decorate my headband box.

All you need is, decoupage, a paintbrush, an ugly box, and fabric.

1) Trace box, fold fabric so there's two sides. Less work for the lazy.
2)Cut
3) decoupage entire thing, especially the edges.
4)Lay fabric down
5)Decoupage the top, to really set the fabric in place.
6) Let dry.
7) Ta-da! Pretty box.

LA


Day 5 of Spring Break, I went to LA Garment District with Caitlin and Megan Lee. The shops were overwhelming, but in a good way. Beads, fabric, trim, ribbons, feathers, it was nuts. I think I found a new favorite place. If you like DIY-ing, you would love it. I just wish I had more money. I would buy everything. There is so much culture there, lots and lots of weirdos. I got a pretty new phone cover for my BB Storm, for $6! That was because Megan was a little bargainer. Verizon Store, covers aren't cheap, like $20 bucks. I was pumped. It's purple. I also bought a fat roll of elastic about 144 yards for $9, that's a lot of headbands. GET EXCITED. I also bought these crazy colorful scarves, they kinda look Mexican, but I think they're rad. Then we had a delicious lunch at Portillo's on the way home. I was a happy camper.

Funny Quotes of the Day:

"See.. look at that girl's (me) shoes, they don't look cute, until there on someone."-Lady in the bead store, (in regards to ankle sandals).

"Hey Baby!" (smooches me a kiss)-Gross old man.

"You need to spend $100 minimum"-man, "WHAAAT?!, MEGAN!!?"-Caitlin, "I don't have $100"-Me, "Today is special, beautiful girls, get discount, no need to buy $100."-man, (we walk out of the store, "that man scared me!"-me.

"Is that our parking lot?" -Caitlin, "No, our parking lot said $4"-Megan, (keep walking down the street) "I think that was our parking lot"-Megan, "Excuse me, did that sign used to say $4 (it now said $3, man shakes his head), "I told you guys"-Caitlin. hahahahh

"Order number 177, you're in heaven number 177", "Order 173, come see me, order 173". (haha sayings to come get your food at Portillo's. ) P.S best Italian beef dip, I've ever had. I wish they had more around where I live. The closest one is in Buena Park.

A Day at Universal Studios


"I hate bending over for pictures, I'm not short, it's not me"-Al
"Get over it"- Me


Today started off SHITTY. My car wouldn't start! Erin's Law, I'm telling you! God rained on my parade...but I busted out the slip-n-slide. $114 later... me and the bf went to Uni. Studios. We had a lot of fun. I got to finally go on the Mummy ride, so cool, it goes backwards. I also loved the new Simpson's Ride, it made Al's tummy hurt, but I liked it. For lunch we had Hollywood Cafe. I had clam chowder in a bread bowl and Al had a bacon cheeseburger. The longest line we waited in was the Studio Tour, about an hour and fifteen! But I think it was worth it. Saw the set of Desperate House Wives, very exciting. I ended the day with a cup of Banana Split Dippin' Dots, ahhhmazing. Woo spring break, day #2!

Love,
Erin

I hope you find it

And I hope you find it,
What you're looking for
And I hope it's everything you dreamed your life could be
And so much more

And I hope you're happy, wherever you are
I wanted you to know that
And nothing's gonna change that
And I hope you find it

Last Song.


Nicholas Sparks you are the ultimate romantic. I love you. To all of you Miley Cyrus haters, I thought she played her role perfectly. I balled my eyes out and got snot all over my jacket, that is how hard I cried. I think what got me the most was Jonah, he was such a sweetheart to everyone. Liam Hemsworth is the epitome of eye candy. Wow, he is sexy. I recommend any girl to see it. Love her song too, if you couldn't tell, ha. I think this movie really made me thankful for my family (esp. with our situation right now). Now all I need is a Liam.

DIY Ruffle Bikini Top






First, you need a bikini bottom, one that you don't mind cutting up.
Secondly, cut liner out of bikini bottom.
Thirdly, you need to cut liner into about 1 in. strips
Layer strips one on top of another (you really only need four strips of liner).
Stitch in and out of liners and pull together at the end to get a ruffle-ly effect.
You need a bikini top, I got mine at Victoria's Secret.
Apply ruffles to the inside edges of the bikini top.
Voila, it's that simple!
***Cheap, Cute, and Crafty! Perfect for fixing up an old bathing suit.
