it is snowing AGAIN.   why?! WHY?!! it just snowed MONDAY! TWO days ago.  usually it snows once every two MONTHS.  i feel like i'm in MICHIGAN or something!!!

but anyways, i tried being a good American citizen and watching the State of the Union address.  Hmmmm.  I couldn't do it.  It's sooo boring. And it's SOOOO annoying when everyone stands up and claps for half an hour after every lie...er i mean sentence that comes out of the president's mouth. 

So his big new economic plan involves not taxing stock DIVIDENDS!? oh...big WHOOP...especially for me and my fellow PO' folk who don't OWN stock cuz we too PO'.  Meanwhile, the rich will be celebrating in their mansions and buying nice cars with the money that SHOULD have been taxed.  I hate the Republicans.  I didn't stay tuned  long enough to hear his take on Iraq and terrorism and the unnecessary war.  I switched to Smallville after hearing him talk about how he will get rid of HMO's and get back all the Social Security money.  yeah ok. 

For those of you who don't know, this week is NY Restaurant Week.  A week for the PO' FOLK to go out and experience the city's fine cuisine.  $20.03 prie fixe lunch or $30.03 prie fixe dinner at many of the bestest bestest restaurants.  (Actually, that's still a lot for me...I'm the PO'est of the PO'...take me to chinatown anyday for $4 noodle soup) 

Anyhow, my co-workers (who make as much as I do, but somehow manage to frequently eat out at these restaurants....can we say rich mommy and daddy?) wanted the whole lab to go eat out this Thursday.  So we all printed out the list and tried to agree on a place to eat.  I kept suggesting the more "ethnic" restarants....Spanish, portuguese, japanese, French. 

Everyone else (the white folk) kept choosing the grills...park avenue grill...aureole...2nd avenue deli...some steakhouse.  but if you had a chance to eat ANYWHERE and ANYTHING...WHY the heck would you choose american food.  Granted they're famous...and supposedly they have good steaks/sandwiches or whatever.  But i  am not going to pay $20 for a gourmet BURGER...or FRIES. 

Finally we agreed on this FRENCH brasserie near work. YEAH! look at the power of this one little asian girl! but sigh...it's still expensive...please donate to my Little PO' Asian Girl Lunch Fund. 

GOOOOOOOOO Yao-Ming....in your FACE, Shaq.  Now you can Ching-Chong all you want from the BENCH...while you watch Yao-Ming START.  AAAAAAAW yeah!

ok..why boobs grow far apart.  Imagine yourself cradling a baby in your arms.  Now imagine where the baby's head is.  It's usually positioned on the outside of one's body...not inside the body.  SO, therefore, boobies that are further apart, facilitate boobie-feeding.  In the natural cradling position, your boobie is right at the baby's mouth.  TA DAH!!!  (I read this somewhere...i didn't sit around and figure this out).

As promised, my theory on cleavage.  So, you see a girl walking down the street wearing a scandalous shirt...and you see that nice line-cleavage and you think, oh she must have big boobs.  yes? NO!

Cleavage does NOT depend on boob size, rather, it depends on boob placement.  yes, boob placement.  Some boobs grow fairly close together...so with a little push, you get CLEAVAGE!!! And when your boobs are placed close together, you don't need HUMONGOUS boobs to have cleavage...you can have fairly average sized or even small boobs (but you can't be flat, that doesn't work).

BUT, boobs can also grow far apart.  and when that happens, it makes it harder to have cleavage.  THEN you need big boobs...cuz you need stuff to push towards the middle.  If you have average/small boobs, no amount of pushing will give you good cleavage (unless you hunch over and push really hard...like Aldace did...but that's not exactly sexy). 

SO, if you're average/small sized with your boobs placed far apart, don't worry.  Stand TALL...and thrust out your little tangerines!!! Oh, and be grateful that you don't get black eyes when you run or jump!

Tomorrow...the theory on why boobs grow far apart...and why that is actually biologically better!!! stay tuned....

Well, I was talking to Aldace and Buddhaman on Sunday.  And apparently, they think my blogs are BORING with the exception of a few.  And since my blogs are based on my life, they must thing that I'M boring.  OH and DJCaliber mentioned that us Alphagirls aren't as fun anymore cuz we're all "latched".  What is up with that...

Am I boring? I don't think I'm boring.  I think I'm quite entertaining.  Even when I'm alone, I can easily entertain myself.  Like i'll tell myself a funny joke, or make a funny comment to myself.  And then I laugh because I'm so funny. And funny = not boring.  And sometimes I even make funny comments to other people and they laugh.  So they must think i'm not boring also.  So therefore, I am not boring.  Thank you very much.

Besides, I'm a working girl now.  And when people work, nothing exciting ever happens to them.  I COULD blog all about my very good friend, but then people would think that's too sick and then make gagging noises at me.  Or I could blog about when i went clubbing a few weeks ago with Aldace and Lilgurl and I was showing Lilgurl my sorta low-cut shirt.  And then Aldace said, y'know, you should wear a push-up bra.  And then i said, I AM!!!! And then Aldace said, "if I push hard enough, even i can get cleavage" and then proceeds to push his man-boobs together really hard to prove his point!

Tomorrow, I will explain the theory behind cleavage.  Stay tuned.

Hmmm...everyone's been blogging about their mid-quarter life crisis and what they feel the SHOULD be doing with their lives.  Hmmm...I remember when I was younger, I wanted to be an architect.  I would look at these gorgeous, grandiose buildings in books and in rich people's neighborhoods and i'd think, WOW.  To this day, I love looking at houses...and if you take many car rides with me, you'd know that there'd be relative silence from me, with the exception of some ,"OOOH, look at THAT house" here and there (well, unless i'm in a rich people's neighborhood...then you'd hear it a lot).  So what happened to my dream? Well, i told my parents and they laughed and said, "you can't draw...go upstairs and read your science book." ok, well they didn't say the last part, but I'm sure they were thinking it. 

So I became pre-med for a vast majority of my life.  surprise surprise.  And for a while, I really did want to be a doctor.  But not a REAL doctor...a theoretically perfect doctor...with a theoretically perfect, balanced life.  I wanted to help tons of people get better...then go home, pick my kids up from school, fix them an afternoon snack and help them with their homework, while i watch my soaps!  And then relax a little with my dog...and wait for my husband to get home at 5:00, so that HE could cook dinner (HAHAHAHAHA, we all already know what's wrong with that picture). 

As I got older, I realized that a doctor's life was NOT what I imagined...actually a doctor has no life (j/k for all you pre-med's out there).  But other factors began to play into my decision.  Someone once told me, "you can be a great doctor, or you can be a great mother/wife, but it's nearly impossible to be both."  So after several years (yes, years) of thinking, praying, and arguing with people, I decided, family before career.  that's it.  It's as simple as that.  Being a physician is a good career...awesome almost.  But it's not enough for me to want to sacrifice my time with my future husband, my future 2.5 kids and my future dog (cocker spaniel, please!). 

So, after trying out practically every field in the health care industry (I knew i wanted to stay in health care), I decided that I was going to get my PharmD. and become a pharmacist...a job that's very similar to being a physician in terms of schooling and stability and the basic theory of helping people out.  But with regular hours, and no on-call duties and best of all, no blood! 

so this morning, i get up and go check on the baby hamsters like i do every morning.  I'm looking and ooh and aaawing and then i realize, where's the mommy hamster? WHERE'S THE MOMMY HAMSTER? So i get oh my hands and knees and start searching all the corners...and behind things...even tho i knew it was pretty much useless.  And so it's getting late, and i'm already late for work.  So i decide I'll just leave a little bowl of food and water out in case the mommy hamster gets hungry. 

As i'm reaching for the food, i feel something bump into my foot.  At first, i thought it was a big bug, so I screamed really loudly.  But then, I looked down and it was the MOMMY HAMSTER.  She was just sitting there, looking up at me, as if she did nothing wrong.  She didn't even try to run away. So i scooped her up and put her back. 

This weekend, I went to the Elements party with Aldace15 and Lilgurl to visit my favorite DJ's: Juice and Caliber (where was jeyi99?!!!)!! YAY! Got in (FO' FREEEEE!) at 11:30ish...danced til 2.  Went home...my legs and knees were aching.  I am old.  But not old enough to dance on stage for a little bit before I left! hee hee!

There is nothing like a great set of music to make you realize how much it SUCKS to be at work.  I would much rather be at home dancing in front of the mirror.  Sigh.  I can't wait to go home to watch JOE MILLIONAIRE!!!

ok, who watched The Bachelorette last night? I DID!!! it is DEFINITELY not as good as The Bachelor I and II.  It is NO fun to watch the guys...because they do not get into cat fights, nor do they cry if they're not chosen.  It was the BACHELORETTE who cried because she felt bad hurting people's feelings.  what fun is that?! NO FUN.  And i don't know, it just seems so unnatural to see all those guys clamoring for the affection of one girl.  It just makes them seem so loser-y.  i guess, just as losery as watching 25 women fight for one guy. 

ok, enough with the logistics of the show.  Let's move onto more important factors.  LOOKS!!! ok...I am sorry, but they are ugly.  Is it me, or do they all basically look THE SAME with the exception of one or two.  It doesn't help that they're all wearing the same thing.  I guess guys' evening wear doesn't vary much.  That must suck.  So all the guys look like your average looking white male, except for the black guy, and the hawaiian guy.  They all look like the men you see during happy hour at the upper east side bars...which is why i hang out downtown.

Poor Trista...so pretty...with nothing to choose from.  I think we should have Trista choose from 25 WOMEN.  How good would that show be?! Abc would have every straight male glued to the TV.  How do I think of such things? I am a genius.

The much better matchmaking show to watch is JOE MILLIONAIRE.  Now that is SMART thinking.  Good job, Fox.  I can't wait til the next episode where the girls have to shovel horse manure.  Ah...the things girls do to be rich (then unbeknowst to them, un-rich again).
