| Aside from getting my hair cut this past week, I went on my first group motorcycle ride last week. I rode with my brother Craig, my father, our friend Jen, and one of Craig's coworkers. Before this, the only other person I ever rode with was with Daryl, so it was exciting to ride with more than one person. We all met up at Craig's house last Wednesday and rode around Sunland/Tujunga area. We went into the canyons where we had the road to ourselves. The mountain areas have been closed due to the fires that occurred a couple months ago. We ignored the signs and rode through anyway. It was nice!
My mother and I have survived the swine flu! She came down with it a week or two ago and then gave it to me. I have never had such a high fever for so long. I am not 100% better, but I am getting there.
I have once again started my CPA studying and it is a bit stressful. I have a study plan where I study for the entire portion of the exam and then take a week break and then continue studying again. Last week was my break and this week I must resume my studying. I am finding that I am stressing out more than I have to, but then again, it's always been that way.
Aside from work and study, I am spending most of my time with Echo. I sleep over almost every night. We've been helping each other out with various things. I'm getting to know him a lot more and seeing his different sides. On Sunday, we went to Hermosa Beach where I rollerbladed and he was on his long board. Things have been good.
The only thing that really bothers me about him is his age. We are supposedly the same age, but I found some official documentation in his room last week that proves he is not 23 like me. He is actually the oldest guy I have ever dated, which is fine by me. (I've always liked older guys. Haha.) It's not his age that bothers me. What bothers me that he feels he has to lie about it. And then I start questioning how old he really is even though I found the official documentation, because he kind of brushes the issue aside and insists we're the same age. Not cool.
After some careful consideration, I think I might be putting Xanga lock on my site soon.We'll see how it goes...

| I got my hair cut professionally today!
For the past five years, my hair went all the way to bottom of my lower back, right before my butt started. (You can see how long it was in those Halloween pictures I posted up earlier this week.) During that time, I cut my hair by myself every six months or so. I would simply just part it in the middle and cut off two or three inches.
I got my hair cut at a place called Salon Xia in Pasadena as a favor to one of Echo's roommates. His roommate is a certified stylist and is currently looking for a job in a salon. Today was his interview at Salon Xia and I was his model. I basically gave him free reign over my hair.
"Just do whatever you think is best," I said.
He ended up cutting off nine inches and now my hair stops right past the bottom of my shoulder blades. I am not used to of the short length, but I do love the cut. My hair is way healthier and it falls nicely. The owner of the salon really liked his work. I hope he gets the job!
Isn't it silky smooth?

| I am getting new glasses! I really love the company, so I decided to get my frames from Bebe. I cannot wait until I receive them. 
Aren't they cute?
This last weekend felt really long for some reason. I divided my time between Echo, Trinh, and being at home to keep an eye on my mother, who is really sick at the moment. Echo is also sick, so we spent most of our time lounging around his place. The swine flu has been getting closer and closer to me. My uncle has it, my coworkers brother has it, and some other friends have it as well. When you really think about it, it's just another strain of influenza. I am wondering if my mother has it, but then again, a lot of people have been getting sick lately.
Echo and I are doing okay. We have fallen into a routine where it's a given that we see each other everyday. I like that. However, I also like the fact that I am okay with not seeing him everyday. I don't feel so clingy and dependent like I did in my previous relationship. I know it's hard for me to say that given that I do see him everyday, but I know I don't feel as reliant on a boyfriend-type figure as I used to.
Trinh and I have been hanging out as much as we can, although sometimes the somewhat long drive to her gets in the way. Despite that, we hang out at least once or twice a week. On Saturday, we went to a mall near her house and attended the Hello Kitty birthday party at the Sanrio store there. Trinh and I also played some games and won some cute prizes. I also got a Hello Kitty headband type thing and wore it around the mall while we were there.
I was finally able to schedule my CPA exam! Today, I scheduled all four parts of the exam, which I will take next year. The first part I am ready to take is not available until January 4, 2010, so that's when I will take it. Until then, I am going to study on my own and get ready for that part. | | |
| I was not planning on dressing up this year, but Edgar gave me the idea that I should be a mistress (dominatrix) for Halloween. That got the plan into motion and I went out Friday night and purchased a corset, fishnet stockings, and boots. This is the final product...
What do you think?
This is the first year that I dressed all skanky for Halloween. They always say that Halloween is the one night where a girl can dress all slutty without getting criticism. I never really paid too much attention to that rationale until this year. We all got to do it at least once.  | | |
| Well fuck me... The one thing I didn't want to happen has happened. I am attached. Don't get me wrong, I knew something like this could happen. It was inevitable. This notion of attachment has been creeping up on me for about a week or two, but I did not allow myself to really believe it until yesterday. I had not heard from him for better part of the day and I started getting worried or perhaps I missed him and wanted to hear from him.
Then I stopped myself... This is exactly what I used to do in my previous relationship. These emotions were way too familiar. In such instances, my method for unattaching myself is to remember how heartbroken I was with Daryl when he broke up with me. I also like to think about how it was before we even broke up... How insecure and paranoid I was or how selfish Daryl could be.
Trying to remember the hurtful past in order to distance myself from what is now presently can only work for so long. I am slowly starting to forget, or maybe get over, all the pain I endured. This passage of time, I suppose, is what is allowing me to become attached.
Then again, things have been going pretty well with us recently so it's hard to tell whether I would still be willing to walk away. Something tells me I will be able to, though. I fought so hard to keep my last relationship together, that I don't see the point in fighting for something that, at times, should not be fought for. I figure if a relationship is worth enough to two people, you won't have to fight for it. There will be hard times, but it should not have to get to the point where one person is fighting for something the other person has turned their back on (*ahem*). Screw that, right? It's just not worth it. | | |
