My heart will go on...for Celine Dion

Just watched "Celine Dion: Through the Eyes of the world" (only in theaters for 2 weeks! 2 WEEKS people!) I was able to see parts of her concert and her travels around the world. This girl did some serious traveling! I kept thinking- "Man, it would be so awesome to be on her staff!" They travelled to Finland; Brisbane, Australia; Johannesburg, South Africa- met Mandela! Went on a safari tour! Korea; Macau, China; you get the picture. She went shopping at Saks after hours and left with 20 shopping bags- oh man!

It was amazing! It made me want to get every cd and watch Titanic.

This is a pic from her tour...check out her shoes- LOVE!

Great things come in small packages...

I have a love for shoes- what girl doesn't, right? Well, because I am barely 5'0 (my license says I am 5'1" hee hee hee) I wear heels 95% of the time I leave my house. I hope it's obvious the reason I wear heels so much is to make up for my lack of tallness. And, not any ol' shoe will do...if it looks like Barbie would own them, then I should too. That's truly how I decide my shoe purchases. My staple pair of shoes is just a basic black pump- 3 1/2 in. heel. Currently, I have 3 pairs in my closet. That way, I can rotate them around- the only maintenance I have done is replacing the heel taps.

Well, today I was sitting in the Beaver bus looking at my fabulous pair of nude Jessica Simpson heels (don't judge because they are J.Simpson- really, she has some cute shoes in her line albeit some are truly not comfortable. And, I challenge her to wear a pair of her shoes on an 8-hour day, standing the whole time!)

As I am staring down at my fabulous shoes, I thought "Man, if I didn't wear heels, my feet would most likely not touch the ground" Then, I thought- thank god for high heels!

These Gucci's are to die for!!! Couldn't you see Barbie owning a pair???

You've just worked a ton of hours this week! What are you going to do now? I'm taking a STAYCATION!!!

As this week is coming to a close and I can see my holiday coming up, I have mentally been preparing a to-do list for some much needed spring cleaning. I already have a slight head start with my closet. The only issue I am running into is where to fit the rest of my stuff? I feel as though I need more containers of some sort. Sounds like a trip to The Container Store, no?

My holiday is 7 whole days away from work and I CANNOT wait. My house is in utter disaster. Really, who wants to work for 9 hours and come home and do more work? Not I said the fly...

I have decided the best way to tackle my deep spring cleaning is to look at each and every room. Then, from there, bullet point what needs to be done. From there bullet point steps...get the picture? Ahhh...feels good!

Who knows... maybe I will even throw a tea party when I'm done cleaning:)

Sorry, I'm really not staring at your boobs, I'm trying to read your t-shirt

I have this secret obsession of t-shirts. Not just any tee. I am obsessed with shirts that say something on it. I have no idea why either. It becomes a problem when all I want is to wear a plain white tee. And, as i grab one from my closet it says, "all you need is Juicy" or "Gimme Gimme gimme" (which by the way the hubster is NOT a fan of).

Do you remember those shirts that said "everyone loves a _______ girl?" Have you ever seen one that says, "everyone loves a Filipino girl?"
NO!!! I'm not bitter or anything (yeah right). A couple of years ago, at Urban Outfitters, I found one that says "everyone loves an asian girl." I don't consider myself asian, I consider myself Pacific Islander- there's a difference. But at that time I considered myself lucky to finally find one remotely close! I picked up the tee, shrugged my shoulders and thought "this is as good as it is going to get."

faves that I own:
"Buddahful"
"Treat me like the Princess that I am" (this doesn't get worn too much)
"Best Dressed"
"Everyone loves an Asian girl" (would love it even more if it said Pacific Islander)
