The Other "F" Word

There is one word in the english vocabulary that I adtually hate more than "maybe." Which is saying a lot because I despise that word. This word is "fine." I'm fine, it's fine, we're fine or just plain old "fine!" The word is defined as: all right: being satisfactory or in satisfactory condition. I mean, it's an ok word if you really mean that whatever it is, is actually "fine." But I feel like people use it with a whole other meaning behind it. Some examples of instances where I think that this word is unacceptable:

When I am discussing plans with a friends and I say "let's go here, you want to?" and they respond "Ok, that's fine" To me, that pretty much means..."I don't really want to go there but if you do than ok I will." I rather someone say THAT to me. Be honest people.

When I ask someone how I look in something "that looks fine." I am obviously not wearing that or buying that since it only looks fine, thanks. How about you tell me I look like a cow, I appreciate the honesty.

The kicker for me....when I have  a conversation that may get heated and once it's resolved the other person says "It's fine" or "we're fine." No no no, it's not fine. If you are using that word there is still an issue.

I just think that people are substituting the word "fine" for their true feelings just to be polite. I think we need more honesty in this world instead of words that just cause misconceptions of how people feel. 

So the next time you want to use this word in response to someone, think about what you REALLY want to say, and say it. 

Beauty Experiment: Red Lipstick

Red lipstick. It has been on everyone lately from Katy Perry to Taylor Swift. And I love it. Now I am left wondering, can I pull that off? I am always about trying new trends and wearing whatever I want no matter what other people think. BUT...red lipstick is a bold move. I am leaving for Vegas for a week on Saturday, and I am thinking that there is no better place then Vegas for a cosmetic experiment like this one.

So, does anyone have any thoughts, comments, or suggestions? Please let me know. And I will be sure to update you all on the results of this little experiment. Hopefully I do not look ridiculous.

It's flip flop season bitches!

Ok so I have been slacking lately, my apologies. I will have a thrilling and interesting blog soon I promise. For now I'm just dropping in to say that it is officially flip flop weather!!! So break them out!! :) I love flip flops!

I got a new car!

I am in love with my new 2009 Honda civic. It's fantastic and is much less shaky and messy than my old car. Being true to my nerdiness, my favorite feature is that I can plug in my ipod through a usb port and then play songs and playlists through the car radio, controlling it from the steering wheel. This is also good since I have song ADD and am constantly changing songs. It allows me to be DJ AND keep my eyes on the road, which, until now, was not the case. Love it!

I love my friends.

I just have to say it, because I truly have the best friends in the world. Sometimes I forget, and life gets in the way. But my friends are always there for me, and I love them for that. I get so down about stupid things all the time, and when it comes down to it...I couldn't be luckier. So thank you all....you know who you are. 

Karma's a Bitch....

Ok I had one of the most insane days ever, quite the emotional roller coaster. And definitely worth writing about since it sounds like something off of CSI. So I am at work busy as ever and I get a phone call from my dad, who usually never calls me at work. So I instantly know that something is wrong. He is on the phone asking me if I had come home at all. I said no and asked why. He said he had just come home and the doors were all open and then he proceeded to tell me that my computer was missing off my desk. If you know me at all, you know my computer is my life. I am a graphic designer and ALL of my work from forever is on my precious IMAC. All of my thousands of pictures and songs, and everything precious to me. So I basically freaked out, my coworkers probably thought I was insane. So I drive a million miles per hour home to the scene of the crime, thinking the whole way what could be missing...my coach bags, credit cards, shoes (I was being slightly dramatic) So I get home and the cops were there and the first thing out of my mom's mouth is...your computer IS here. Which totally made me feel a million times better. I have never felt as sick as I did when I walked into my room and saw my drawers completely ravaged through, everything in the house was torn apart. I was so disgusted I wanted to throw up. I proceeded to hug my computer like a huge nerd and I apparently messed up some fingerprints in the process, my bad. Anyway, over all we lost a few pieces of my mom's jewelry, my dad's watch, and my old camera. Somehow the thieves were scared away at the last minute and only made it out with stuff they could grab in their hands. All the big stuff like my computer, my laptop, and the Wii were left on the floor. So at this point I am thinking, ok I'm angry but we are truly extremely lucky. It gets better...

This situation took a turn towards comical when I got a call from the detective telling me that they had found a cellphone when they were gathering all the things that had fingerprints, a T-Mobile sidekick. I told him I definitely did not own one of those. So basically, the thief has left his cellphone at the scene of the crime. I found this completely hysterical. So the cops traced the phone to this guy and it was someone they had been suspecting for other similar crimes. 

Then a little later the cops were at my house, and when they left they saw a car sitting on the street, in it they found a guy who fit the description. He was on a phone apparently trying to call his phone that he "lost." Which was the T-Mobile sidekick in the cops hand.  So they arrested him right then and there. 

SO at the end of the day, the bad guy gets locked up and were are all safe and sound. I can't even believe this all actually happened, it's like not even real. 

I am just so disturbed and disgusted that there are people in the world that are this low. I just feel like my family has been completely violated. However, it made for an interesting story that could totally be an episode of CSI or something lol. So now that it's over I can giggle a little at the stupidity of this thief. And his stupidity sent his ass right to jail. 

CRAZINESS.

suckfest.

I would just like to comment on how utterly disappointed I am with the new season of the hills. Obviously this show is compete crap anyway so spare me the lectures on how it's fake and such, I know this. But COME ON. LC's last season and THIS is what we get. It's never been worse...at least TRY to make it seem real. MTV you have let me down, and all of your other programming currently sucks as well..what happened? I used to be one of your most loyal viewers...looks like I'm going to have to make Bravo my new favorite station.
