Man Candy Monday!

Happy Monday everyone!
I have a long day ahead of me...three classes, and I will end up home by around 9.30pm. Not something I look forward to. However, I made this decision and I'm going to live with this decision and make the best out of this. Wish me luck!!!

But this post would not be if I didn't link up with Leeann and her fun Man Candy Monday series. I certainly need it today and most probably every other Monday until I am done with Humanities, English, and Math (triple yuck! - it was my choice so I'm blaming it entirely on me and you are more than welcome to do the same). 

So, in order to make me happy (and hopefully you, too) here's my Man Candy for today (or this week).

Happy Monday everyone!
I am smiling.
Oh and don't forget to link up with Leeann!!!

TGIF?

I have to admit I am not entirely happy it is Friday. Yes, there I said it. I chose today to work on my English paper and it seems to go nowhere. I have no idea how to start that crappy thing, and it is due next week. Not the entire paper but just the beginning of it but if the beginning fails to even stimulate my teacher's approval somewhere down the line I will fail later on. Grrrrr...at least it's not math!!

Anyhow, since pretty much Tuesday I've been working on getting better. Yes, I have been sick. Not sure why but yes, the bathroom and I are very close friends now. It's that kind of sick you get out of nowhere and don't know where it went when it's gone.

And if you follow the news...southern California (thankfully not all of it) had some fun power outage yesterday. I was home most of the day sleeping, doing homework, relaxing and all. I initially wanted to get some fresh air later on that day when the temps cooled down a little, but nope I had to go out earlier. The phone rang and we were told to pick up my friend's brother because his classes got all canceled due to no power. Hmmmm. We thought it was a joke but apparently not. So we drove and what normally is a ten-minute drive, or a five-minute drive from the exit we would take to the school...turned out to be a 40-minute turn/drive. People went nuts. Apparently some people don't know how to drive when it comes to using lights as stop signs. PLUS, why the heck did people get so upset over nothing!!! It's just power that's out. You are still alive, breathing, driving and picking up people...do not yell at me, or my friend, or anyone else for that matter. Do not tell us how to drive because clearly we can't move anymore since there's a car in front of us and hello?!, even if you could drive/pass us you would not be going anywhere either. YOU ARE STUCK.

Yes, we had some weird people yelling at us and pointing fingers and such. Not the most pleasant one. We ignored those for most part until it got nasty so we returned the favor. And for the record, we were not blocking the street or intersection. Just saying.

Luckily when we got home we still had power, so we really practically lived at the borderline of that power drama.

And to make this week fun and positive, rather than aggressive and dull...I am in love with two things this week:

Do I need to say more? Clearly NOT.

And the following product:

I am clearly in heaven whenever I use this!!

Never thought I'd be so happy using a product but I am. 

That's pretty much everything for this week.
It's been a hectic one, and a long one. I blame it on the long weekend we had last week and the fact that I got sick some time this earlier this week. Still recovering, still working, still breathing and all this with electricity!!! 

Hope you are having a fabulous Friday and a fantastic weekend!!

Oh, how Pinteresting Wednesday

Today, I decided to participate again in "Oh, how Pinteresting Wednesday". I feel it's time because not only does Pinterest inspire me it distracts me big time, and I have to admit I love it!

So, thanks to Michelle's weekly linkup...here are my pictures of this week:

and my favorite for this week; and this season!!!

Do you see a common theme here?

Ha, of course. :) Fall.

Not that it started over here but it's still one of my favorite seasons!!
Wohoo!!! :D

Happy Wednesday everyone.

Three classes for me today, and then I'm done for today.
And well, my day yesterday and today started out nicely...I had some awesome tasting pumpkin spice latte!!!
Did you?
I just wish it wasn't 95 degrees I'd be enjoying it more!!!

Monday update on my whereabouts

Hey my lovely readers!

Hope you're having a fabulous longer weekend and can relax a little or just sit back and enjoy life a little more than usual. For most of my downtime during this very long weekend I read books, slept in (woops!), did laundry, played with dogs, and explored the area. Living over here and knowing places doesn't mean I don't get excited anymore. There is always something to do and explore. I love this about big cities. Without further ado...here are some of my recent pictures...at least some proof I am still alive and all. ;)

I looked very unattractive but it was Disneyland...and a super hot day...so I went with whatever was comfy that day!!! :)

And I went with my friend and blog buddy Sierra from Ocean Dreams!!

And I found something that reminds me of home.
I knew it existed but didn't think we'd pass by it. ;) 

More unattractiveness on a Friday mid day. Please ignore the wrinkled shirt and ugly pose. I was so not ready for this picture!! But please, blame it on the fact that I only had a four-hour night's rest and woke up at 5am. I went to bed early but simply couldn't sleep. And we somehow had to go through lots of administrative stuff that day.

At least we got to eat at Toast and relax for a while that same day.

I clearly am doing fabulous over here. :)
And I am trying to stay healthy, too. The picture above is proof enough, no?!

I have more pictures but I don't want to bother you, and me for that matter.

Happy Monday I guess.
Are y'all off?!
I am so glad I have no classes today.
I could not handle them now. At all.

Have a Saxobeat Weekend!

Hello! It's Sierra from Ocean Dreams blog again! Selma asked me to keep you all entertained over the weekend so here I am!

Recently Selma has got me addicted to European music. I've always had an interested in Asian music, believe it or not, but when Selma introduced me to the song Saxobeat, I was hooked. It's such a catchy song and so much fun! My mom and I are in Montana right now and we totally had a blast singing this song in the car on repeat, I might add! Plus you can catch her accent, which is amazing by the way, so it made the song even better.

So of course I'm going to share a video of the song for you, but I'm also going to show you some pictures of Alexandra Stan, the artist. She's gorgeous!

Alexandra is an artist from Romania and she's only 22. Her first album, called Saxobeats, will be out this September. I'm most definitely going to buy it and Selma - you need to as well! ;)

I thought this would be the perfect song for me to send you out this holiday weekend. Go and have some fun because summer is coming to a close. The official video is such a fun story because she gets thrown in jail and has to figure out how to escape...it's great! Go and check it out.

I was having issues embedding the video since Blogger updated the new compose interface so instead to watch the video click LISTEN to go to head on over to YouTube to listen to it yourself.

If you want to learn more about Alexandra, here is her official website. So what do you think of the song? If you don't like it at first, give it time. It totally grows on you, seriously! Thanks so much Selma for getting me hooked on this song! ;)
