    pony!

    as i was sitting at a red light on my way home, i turned to my left and what do i see? a pony! it was tied up to a tree near a tent with a sign that read $5 - for a pony ride, not the actual pony...otherwise, i might have come home with a pony. it was so cute, tiny and white. and looked so sad being on the side of the road with no one riding it. i should have stopped by, haha, it would have been awesome.
    anyway, i tried my best for a photo of it while i was still at the light but it was just too far away and i couldn't figure out the zoom in time so this shall have to do.
    till later.

    upgrade...

    i had to clean out the cooler today and of course there was so many leftover "older" flowers that i was given and so my little half dozen bouquet of roses was upgraded to a nice little mix:
    and of course, i took what i wanted (some gerberas and tulips) and gave the rest to my mom:side-note: did you know that tulip grow even after you cut them? kind of freaky (and/or cool), eh?the 'rest' of the flowers included some ochids. these always reminds me of the leis you get at airports or hotels.

    no actual polaroids today, just faux ones. i've become obsessed with making faux polaroid as of late and want to make all my regular photos into polaroids now. idk, they just look cooler in a polaroid frame. and i mean with the death of real polaroid this year (though i heard a little company might start re-making the film again) this is as good as it gets.
    till later.

    a rose by any other name...

    actual polaroids: v.s.
    faux polaroids:


    i got my v-day flowers today...three days late but still. i left work with one and a half dozen of these roses (i think these are called 'circus'). i kept 6 and gave the rest to my mom. i think little petey enjoys them as much as i do.

    till later.

    red balloons. red roses. red carnations. red...

    this is how i started off work:i got to blow up a bunch of v-day balloons that are currently randomly hanging out within the shop. it's pretty cool looking with the strings hanging down right in front of people's faces...that'll remind them to add a balloon to their order, huh? and yes, that is a "hello kitty" v-day balloon that my boss got because she knows how much i love hk. i think i might have to get me one...

    and this is how i ended my work day (er, night): i did a couple of wraps: single rose, 3 roses and 3 carnations. got to get ready for those dudes who just want something simple. wraps like these and boutonnieres are the only flower things i know how to put together.

    it was quite busy today. i can't even imagine how crazy it'll be tomorrow and saturday.

    till later.

    roses. roses. roses...

    i am on roses overload right now. i never thought they would stop. ugh. thankfully, it did.

    oh, but i did get a phone call today about something i requested a few weeks ago. i won't go into too much detail right now until i get what they said i will in the mail. it's nothing super epic but i'll be pretty excited when it comes. sidenote: the guy i was on the phone with had me on hold for awhile and the songs that played were "don't cha" and "grove is in the heart." that right there was pretty epic though.

    and if you noticed, i add something new to my blog. i joined twitter. i like that fact that i can "follow" people on it. runner runner, atl jack & alex, pete wentz, etc. all have it. sure, it's sort of useless but it pretty interesting right now.

    i also ended up doing that 25 facts thing on facebook yesterday. i didn't end up tagging anyone back but here's my list:

    1. i love the smell of crayola crayons. it’s my favorite scent.

    2. i organize the clothes in my closet in rainbow order (roy g biv, haha). though half of my clothes are black.

    3. i'm pretty much in love with sylar (zachary quinto) from heroes, he's the only reason i still watch the show, otherwise i would have given up already.

    4. when i was younger i had super straight and super long hair.

    5. when i was in elementary school, one day my cousin was suppose to pick me up from a+ but thought i had already been picked up until finally the v.p. had to drive me to my cousin's. it's because of that, i get really anxious when waiting for people to pick me up. i always think they'll forget me.

    6. in 8th grade i was voted "most bashful."

    7. in 12th grade i was voted "ms. artsy fartsy."

    8. i was born in the philippines and moved to maui when i was one.

    9. because of that i was placed in the esl program when i started school because they didn't think i could speak english well.

    10. when i was younger i use to carry around a huge baby doll which i named "edward" (named after edward scissorhands).

    11. i love hello kitty and my favorite (and oldest, i still have it) item is my large hello kitty plush doll i got for x-mas when i was 7 from “santa claus”.

    12.i failed my driver test 3 times, not because i'm a bad driver (i hope) but because i got nervous driving with strangers.

    13. grease is probably my most favorite movie, i know all the words and sing along to every song.

    14. i've been listening to folie a deux in my car ever since it came out in december, not just because i like it but because i'm too lazy to get new music and i don't like listening to the radio.

    15. i love people watching.

    16.i attended maui community college for one day. i went to all my classes (and even sat in on one that was filled) but never went back after that.

    17. if i was more bad-ass, ballsy and had the money i'd probably be covered in tattoos right now because i love them. sadly, i have none (yet).

    18. also, boys with tattoos are a weakness of mines.

    19. i love ketchup. when i was little i use to suck on ketchup packets...i still do it from time to time.

    20. a couple days before 8th grade started i fractured my wrist rollerblading and had to wear a cast for the first few weeks. it was bright pink although i really wanted a yellow one.

    21. a dream of mines is to have an elephant big enough to ride but small enough to take to places, but not a baby elephant. though it would be wrong to own an elephant, i know.

    22. i once got into a huge fight with some girl (not physical but close to) at a 3 doors down concert. yeah, i said 3 door down.

    23. i hate clowns - they are not funny just creepy and sad.

    24. the name of the hair dye i've been using recently is called “disco inferno.”

    25. two of my favorite music videos are “drive” by incubus and “take on me” by a-ha. i think i just really like the whole animation/live-action combination.

    till later.

    what time is it?

    ahh. mcdonalds happy meals have hello kitty (and friends) watches! and i had to go get me one. unfortunately, the watch band (which of course is made for a child's wrist) was a tad on the small side for me. however, i had to make it fit and switched out the rubber band for an actual watch band (luckily, my mom had an extra).
    and of course now i want them all.
    today was also "bring your mom to work" day. at least for me, haha. she came to help with the flowers since there was a mega load of flowers today...tomorrow is day 2 and it'll mostly be roses...i hate cleaning roses, mostly because of the thorns. dang, you men/boys who only think your wives, girlfriend, the women in you life, whatever only like roses for v-day. there are other flowers out there you know.
    till later.

    the moon starts to look just like the sun...

    tonight's episode of ugly betty. gosh, jesse...wtf. i know i wrote about it before but seriously. i totally related to betty, once again. stupid boys and their stupid games. "i don't play games." can't believe he turned out to be such a tool. haha. it's way too funny. i find it laughable really. the whole self-abobered, "me, me, ME," artsy boy type living in their own world...yup, totally relatable. kind-of side-note: the fact that jesse's "ringtone" was of himself singing "hello, it's me" or something was sort of a d-bag sign...then again the fact she caught him kissing amanda should have been a huge d-bag sign.
    ah, it is quite refreshing that i can watch this and find the fact that i relate to it completely silly instead of heartbreaking now.
    too bad though, i sort of liked jesse at first. he started out so good and sweet. only to turn out to be so LAME!

    till later.
