Month: July 2005

  • My friends and I went on a road trip to Oregon this past
    weekend...  So what's in Oregon??? 
    1) we visited Mount St.
    Helens (really is in Washington) - was amazing... interestingly passed
    lots of cool sporty cars near there...
    2) Voodoo Donuts
    3) Cool Saturday market displaying lots of need/unique stuff in portland
    4) ROSES!!!  Who knew portland was city of roses???
    5) Cannon Beach... Where Goonies was filmed...so cool... brought back lots of childhood memories thinking about the movie... i watched that movie 100 times...
    6) One of the biggest bookstores ever!  Powell's City of Books Bookstore that is takes up a whole city block... cool used/rare books are located there too...
    7) Microbreweries
    8) NO CLOTHING TAX!!!

    So not bad... i don't know if i want to live there though...

    ***HIGHLIGHT***
    So i complained that we had to stay at a hotel in Vancouver, WA (which
    is 10 minutes from portland) instead of staying at downtown portland...
    BUT  guess who i ran into????

    KEVIN SMITH!!!!
     
    While we were checking into the hotel around
    midnight, there he was checking in at the same time!!!!  I
    recognized him instantly... so there i was...thinking  what should
    say to him?
    1) "Wow, great meeting you, i love your movies!"
    2) "Dude you are too cool!  I think your movies are so awesome!"
    3) "I watched almost all your movies... i think you are brillant!"
    4) "Wow, what are you doing here in vancouver, washington???"
    and then i thought about how should i address him? "Mr. Smith" or "Kevin Smith" or "Kevin"???? or "Silent BOB!"

    But when i glance at him again, he look pretty pissed (i think b/c the
    hotel's garage was full - which is SOOO stupid) and late, so i didn't
    want to bother him with my lame approach... but it was pretty
    cool.  I have never met/saw a real hollywood guy before... i love
    his movies! 

    Great Job Phoebe for booking the hotel!!! 

  • I think a friend of mine will be having a baby any day now...How cool...Good luck Di!

  • Bad news for me again... didn't get the other position at my hospital.  The end of my pharmacy career...can't go on any longer...

  • Well, I didn't get the job i interviewed for couple of weeks ago at my
    hospital... This is so depressing... this the 3rd position i got
    rejected for.  It is looking to me like i am unbankable... Is
    something wrong with me?????  Will I ever find a job??? 
    Fortunately, there is another position opening up in my hosptial. 
    I HOPE that i get this job.  If i don't, i think i will have a
    nervous breakdown and move to San Diego and work at Bloomingdales or
    something... Maybe pharmacy is not for me?

  • So Sad that my brother and mom left... I think they had a great time... i certainly did.
    Some pics from the trip that my brother took...
    Goodness, we ate alot, i think i made them put on extra 10 lbs during
    the trip... but i couldn't help it... there is too much yummy food in
    seattle!

    You should look at my brother's page for better arrangement and more architecture pics...
