I don't understand how people can't take care of themselves. Seriously.
Today, instead of doing work at home, which I should (not) have been doing, I decided to watch some of the "What Not To Wear" marathon on TLC.
Honestly, why can't people not look like idiots?
I used to be of the mindset that wntw was just a show to make everyone look the same, but I have since retracted that statement.
It's a show to make you feel better about yourself. All of these people have such low self esteem, it's amazing to see how much change can occur in an hour long program. Amazing.

In other news, Terra and I finally had our photo shoot. Serena kindly lent us her apartment and I had the best time ever. Pics are up on myspace/fb if you want to see. She hasn't finished editing most of them, but she gave me some to whet my appetite until the others are done. Terra is such an amazing photographer, it was really an honor to work with her. We did a 50s style pinup shoot and we played around with color (red/white and pink) and setting (couch/kitchen). The ones I've seen so far are amazing and I cannot wait to see the others!

Hopefully this week will go by fast, seeing as how my birthday is in one week exactly. I've got some fantastic celebratory events occurring next weekend, it's going to be awesome.

New Year Resolutions, Remixed...

Thursday, January 17, 2008

I've stopped making promises. I have no idea where I'll be next week, much less next month. I need to actually make my mind up before I start saying things to people that I want to mean it to.

I've stopped worrying so much about my alcohol intake. Ali's birthday night really made me realize that I don't want to end up on the next season of Bad Girls Club. I may drink 3 or 4 nights out of the week, but I in no way want to drink to that much excess, ever again. Even on my birthday.

I've stopped trusting people as much as I used to. I tend to get too wrapped up in the fact that I've got a friend and we've got a lot in common that I seem to forget that not everyone is as lovely as I am.

I've stopped caring about whether or not I get enough sleep at night. Three hours doesn't make any difference from eight and I don't seem to be any less productive with either amount.

I've stopped caring about certain people, period. If someone's that intent on hypocritically defending themselves, who am I to stop them?

These "stoppages" may seem very pessimistic, but they're not. I'm going out with the old and in with the new, positive, cupcakey Allie. Don't fuck it up for me! :-)
