Busy Busy

so most of you know that i've been spending my days interning at NACHC...where i split my time between data analysis, fact-sheet research, attending hill meetings and the consequent memos, and lobbying congress...and when i say "data analysis, fact-sheet research, attending hill meetings and the consequent memos, and lobbying congress", i mean facebooking and rss-ing and general day dreaming.

but to tell you the truth, i've been sneaking off to purse my true passion and the real reason why i'm here in dc.
yes...that's right folks. i've open up my own women's shoe store right in the middle of Georgetown. apparently, my store provides the fashion forward and refined footwear to the DC community.

so i've ditched my political aspirations and shirked my responsibility to the 16 million people i help represent at NACHC to cater to the feet of the Georgetown elite and dedicated my time researching...and by that, i mean earnestly keeping my eyes fixated on the shoes of carrie bradshaw.

Forget Debates

as for the upcoming Youtube/CNN Sponsored Democratic presidential debate, the blogosphere is heating up. people are posting their questions in Youtube videos and candidates will be put on the spot to answer them.

for some people, its those answers that will determine how one votes. for others, its simply a gut feeling. but for me, i'm going to leave the politics and the issues aside...i'm voting for the candidate with the best hot chick dancing and lip-syncing video.

thank jeebus for me, this just so happens to represent my choice in candidates.

I'm Back

i must apologize...i've had guests that have taken my attention away from the blogosphere. but alas, i make my triumphant return to this world, i trust that you all have reserved me a seat in your routines of xanga and blog reading while procrastinating from studying or sneaking peaks from work. whatever ur escaping from, i have returned to fill those needs.

there has been a lot going on in my life lately...the first visitors to my new home, continued vigilance at work, and feeding my addiction all things electronic media. say hello to the newest additions to my home:

this is obviously a terrible picture of the whole view...but yes, after an excruciating and teasing ordeal with UPS, i finally received my tv. it fits wonderfully with my $30 DVD player and my newly purchased DVI adapter which will allow me access all the wonders of the technological world.




most of you also know of my cat (though nam will undoubtedly claim ownership)...fish sauce. seeing as how nam won't be around to take care of her for a while, she has found new residence in my bookcase, under my bed, on my numerous window sills, and in this case, on my coffee table. minus her shedding and the inevitable stench of her litter, she is a very welcome guest.




and of course...nam herself decided to grace me with her presence this past month. it was great fun and always nice to have her around. granted she did eat all my food and drive me to near insanity, she was useful in that she brought over fish sauce.

no no...it was awesome to have her spend my first real month here in DC. definitely took the edge off living alone. good things come in tiny little packages...and i definitely enjoyed mine.


i failed to mention that my best friend from high school also decided to take a pit stop in DC before he headed off for Spain. i somehow lost many pictures from my camera so he will have to be excluded. but always nice to have visitors...and i definitely hope to have more (TAKE THE HINT ALL YOU PEOPLE WHO COMPLAIN ABOUT BOREDOM AT HOME).

now i'm sorry that this hasn't been one of my rants on the continued failures of this administration or one of my insightful defenses of britney's love life...but i did feel that after such a hiatus from the internet world (where i best communicate with the world), i owed you the cliff-notes version of my life this past month or so.

so here you go...i hope this minor update can at least quench your thirst of knowledge on this hu for just a little bt longer.
