my name is angie, and i'm ambitious. i heard the phrase, "dress for the job you want, not the job you have," and i had a thought; why don't i LIVE that way? i have dreams and goals and ambitions. before, these things were a "someday" thought. well, someday is today. i'm gunna make it happen.
a made a playlist for those of you who turn your nose up at the though the lovey dovey commercialized holiday that is V-Day. personally, valentine's is my FAAVORITE!! even though ive spent the last two alone.. eh. i just go buy myself sexy lingerie and chocolate and hang out in my room watching the colbert report. i think that's the plan for this year. <3
Sometimes I'm just amazed at how things work out. I think sometimes God sends us little challenges as a friendly way of messing with us. All you can do is laugh about it sometimes.
At the risk of being a little too personal, I'll tell you a little story. About a year ago, a very close friend of mine moved into a bigger house, while my family had recently moved into a smaller one. I loaned him some furniture, since he needed it and I didn't. After a few months, this guy and I had a falling out, and we stopped speaking to each other.
Well last night his room mate texts me saying they are moving into a smaller place, while this time my family is moving into a bigger place! (still waiting on the bank to accept the offer, but we're pretty confident..) He told me no one would be home tomorrow (today), and I could come pick up my furniture any time. (They had made me a spare key back when him and I were close. )

So here I am, standing in the house of "the boy who done me wrong," all alone. I could have done anything mean and nasty. For months I've been mad at this guy and kind of hoping the timing would work out so I could have the opportunity to give him what he deserves.
But I didn't. It's Spread the Love Week.
When I got home I texted him. "Hey. Thanks for taking good care of my kitchen table. It means a lot to me. Sorry I was a bitch to you." And I think I have closure on that now.
On a less personal, just for fun note, I made some CDs for a friend. I told my good friend Alyssa about Spread the Love week, and she told me she would make me a mix CD of her favorite group. And today I made her one in return.
It has 8 tracks of the English versions of some Korean Songs. Sounds kinda weird, I know. But these songs are actually pretty good. ;) Here! Listen!
mmm Taeyang.. abs like a Hershey bar..
this one makes me think "team jacob." lol
and these are English covers by JD Relic. Sounds great but the videos are a little awkward and silly to just sit and watch.
today i bought this album from iTunes:
artist: Florence and the Machine
album: Lungs
review: LOVE IT.
i was browsing around people's blogs today and one girl had this playing in the little sidebar. i recognized it as "Dog Days are Over," the song in the commercial for Eat, Pray, Love. so i looked it up on iTunes, and i really liked most of the songs. my style of music is really upbeat, fast tempo, happy music. like owl city. (love them!) on this album, most of the songs are pretty upbeat and full of energy. a few of them are a little slower than i like, but for the most part, this will be the soundtrack to my summer.
