New Year's Resolutions

so i realize i havent been on this in a bit but honestly with the holidays and blah blah blah its been quite a busy month for me.  BUT not to worry I have plenty of gossip for y'all.  first things first I would like to say that I believe New Year's Resolutions is a load of bull.  Everyone says theyre gonna do all these amazing things but nothing gets done.  3 weeks later the gyms are empty, diets have been abandoned, and ppl are back at the bars drinking as much as they were prior to theyre "im drinking less" idea.  so when people ask me if i have any new years resolutions i say no...why?...because if i want shit to get done i will make it happen and i don't need a special date to kick my but into gear.  however, in the spirit of things i have formulated a list of goals for this upcoming year of 2011 and have decided in honor of it being my year (the rabbit) I will meticulously document everything that happens to me this year (and by meticulous i really mean once a week will be a stretch for me).  so to kick this blog off lets start with that list shall we?

1. I will get my abs back...so help me god I will look amazing damn it!
2. I will swear to celibacy (before u freak out and think im a reformed sinner let me clarify).  I will ONLY have sex with a guy if and only if we are actually dating.  Dating is qualified as 2 months of continual contact, dates, and actual feelings for each other.  SOOO for all you users out there (and deep down you know who you are) sorry but these legs are CLOSED.
3.  I will break even by 3/31 and save 70% of every paycheck starting 4/1. lord help me
4. I will find a job in la or nyc...i will be picky and i will not settle for anything less than im worth.
5. I will save 1 day a week to myself.  That means no friends, no family, no nobody.  Just vivian, the sunshine, a cup of java and maybe a trip to the mall.
6.  I will start reading for pleasure again.  I miss it, so in an effort to culture myself I will read 1 book a month for the rest of the year.
7.  I will visit la at least 2 more times this year.  Friends are as important as family and should be treated as such, especially since yall are so darn close.
8.  I will not...REPEAT WILL NOT..let a boy make me cry this year.  I am totally awesome and as Aneea would say should never compromise myself.
9.  I will not give into the temptation of drink.  Everytime I think to myself "wow I could use a drink" I will put my glass down.  Drinking should be for pleasure not for relief. (although I fully believe I have lots to drink for)
10.  And lastly, I will not raise my voice at my mother this year.  That's right, you heard it hear first.  Knowing me this will be by far the hardest "resolution" for me to keep, but possibly the most important.  Fact: I love my mother.  Fact: She is a crazy bitch.  Fact: My mother loves me.  Fact: I will treat her like someone who loves me, not a crazy bitch (even though she is one...let's just reiterate that)

OK so there's my beautiful list of resolutions and I will try my best to stick to them.  I will put them in my phone and carry them with me wherever I go and inform you guys as to my progress.  That being said onto the fun stuff.

I am currently sitting in Starbucks at hacienda crossings (which is the central hub of all social interactions in pleasanton) and just witnessed a most hysterical situation.  3 girls (hs seniors..MAYBE college freshman) were sitting at a table to my right. A boy (and I say boy because only a boy would try to pick up on 3 hs girls wingmanless at a startbucks in ptown) walks up to the girls and awkwardly starts a conversation.  I believe the opening line was "hey do you guys know _____?" which of course the girls answered no.  and then he proceeds to tell them that he is a pscyhology/biochemistry double major (everyone ooooo cause its really impressive) at which the girls respond "o wow really!"  and then he proceeds to tell them that he saw them through the window of starbucks and that they looked really nervous and how he can tell because one was twirling her hair and the other was biting her lip....at this point the couple sitting across the table from me have also picked up on this hilarity and we have proceeded to give each other an "are you seroius" look.  Eventually the guy gets the hint and apologizes for interupting their conversation and leaves starbucks.  The girls giggle because im sure none of them have ever received that kind of male attention before (they were not attractive at all) only to be approached by yet another boy (and i use the term boy loosely cause this guy was at least 30) who opened with "can you believe that guy, wasn't he weird?"  and they giggled and i died inside laughing because im thinking "you think HE'S WEIRD! HAHAHAHAHA"  o but it gets better....so boy number 2 leaves and boy number 1 comes BACK INTO STARBUCKS...i repeat he returns to the scene of the crime and attempts try number 2.  This time he opens with "I'm sorry I just have to make sure, you guys really don't know ____?" they returned with "nope, we don't know him" and he goes ok sorry again to interrupt your conversations, bye and they say see you in a minute! and at this point i cannot contain my laughter and me and the couple start busting up laughing.  *sigh* the lesson ladies and gentlemen is not my shitty grammar (which ive just realized i only used quotation about half the time they were appropriate) but that boys will do anything in their quest to impress a female, and even the things they say they wont do they wont do because they want to give females a certain impression of them and thus are still trying to impress the females.  I do not include males in this conversation because gay boys and straight boys flirt completely differently and honestly i believe that open gay boys have the type of confidence in themselves that the rest of us only dream of and thus do not have to waste their time impressing their mates because..well they already know how impressive they are lol.

Alright i belive that is enough for one night...lots of stuff has happened this month of january that im sure will come up later in blogging so i will not fret you with the details now.  until we meet again (which will hopefully be next week)...

LiVe Ur LiFe,
Victoria Niles
