WTF iTunes?

So there are some songs that cost $1.29 and $1.49 now as opposed to the regular $.99. Not happy iTunes. It doesn't seem like that was the best business move to make man. Fifty cents doesn't seem like its a big difference, but it is. It sure did just prevent me from buying a song. And note, I am not saying I am going to do it, but don't be surprised if you see a raise in piracy again. NOT SMART man....

The New Job

So, on the second day of my summer clerkship, I am totally "digging" it. Let's see how I feel about it at the end of 6 weeks. No one made me mad yet, so of course I like it lol.

But in all seriousness. I can TELL that this is the kind of firm that I want to work at permanently. They have a very VERY laid back atmosphere. Meaning there isn't anyone always looking over your GD shoulder and ish. Plus they have a casual dress code, which is awesome. You don't have to come in a suit and stockings in the summer! You know that is freaking awesome. You just have to dress up if you are meeting with a client or during trial, but thats a given.

And they actually give us work. Yes, it is document reviews and memos, but it is interesting. Totally enjoyable.

They also are soo nice. And I know that part of it is the whole "wooing" the summer associate thing, but the attorney's I'm in contact with all genuinely seem like the get along and are easy to get along with. And that is something coming from me, cuz I don't like a whole lot of people. No I'm kidding, only slightly though.

But yes, this is the kind of environment that I would like to work in. First, it is a plaintiff's firm so they aren't fighting for corrupt ass people which is lovely. Second, they are midsized, so there are only about 20 attorney's in the office I am in, and like 30 medical people/legal support staff. And they don't have the whole stuffy law firm crappy feel. Its hot.

Oh yeah, and I get paid son!

Hedo Turkgalu...Yay or Nay

He is definitely a YAY! This guy is like the new Vlade Divac. Yes, they are from different countries, and they play different positions, but that's fine. He's my new Vlade just because I love his name. PLUS, the dude can shoot. He be making shots that don't even look like they should go in. Loving this dude.

Dhani Jones...Yay or Nay

I cannot decide if I like this Dhani Jones. Some days I feel like I do, some days I feel like I don't. I enjoy the Travel Channel show. He's getting out and traveling and stuff and he seems to be a good representation of the black race. But then, there's that Fredrick Douglass pulled back hair. Yes yes, its original and its not dirty locks like these others...but I just don't know about it.

There Are NO Words...

...to describe just what my mommy means to me. There just aren't. We've spent the last two weeks together and even though I knew I missed her, I didn't quite know the level. My mom has always been my very best friend and only seeing her duri school breaks has been really hard for me. Anyway, so I surprised her on her birthday and came home in between my finals and got to spend her birthday, mothers day at home with her then we went back to texas for my cousins graduation. Then we took a road trip down to finish my final then to visit another cousin in Houston and back up to Dallas today. Point being I've had such a good time with my mm and I'm going to miss her when she goes back to CA in a couple of days. My parents can move down here right?

Yuck

It irritates me when people say "after the jump" in reference to a second page of a blog. That is all

at a certain age a girl needs to wear a brar

Jill Zarin from Real Housewives of New York puts extra r's on things. It is great.

Thanks Damages!

I looooove finding music from TV shows. It is the greatness. So my newest song is "Ceylon" by Madita. It is some good stuff. I don't do well with music classification, so bear with me. I feel like it is kinda like electronica/trip hop, but I don't know. Kinda reminds me of my girl Imogen Heap.

I also found that I for some reason looove ignoring TV shows when they are popular and stocking up on back episodes so I can watch them all in one sitting. Did that with Boston Legal and the OC and now I'm doing it with Damages. I love this show. Glenn Close is one of those people who they are absolutly hideous until they smile. What is that about.

can you be in both Arlen,TX and Brooklyn, NY at the same time?

Why yes it is. Does anyone beside me think that that Van Kampen dude from The Real Housewives of New York looks a whole lot like Hank Hill? Just gonna throw that put there.

Thanks J-Lo (there is sarcasm there)

OK seriously, this whole new big behind thing is getting to be a little too much. It's really quite annoying actually. Actually, I think what's annoying about it is WHO they are targeting with it. Yes, this is old, but for some reason, it is really, truely effecting me now. I am soooo sick of people being amazed that white/Armenian/Asian who the eff ever has a little bit of azz. It is soooo annoying to me.

I do not want to name any names or anything, but there is one which out there whose behind literally looks like she has a diaper on when she wears anything other than dresses. It is past and beyond disgusting.

No, actually, I know what happened to make me so upset. There was this picture of Zoe Saldana and someone was like, "She's cute she is just to skinny. She ain't got no azz". But wait a minute now. Zoe Saldana is like 5'7 and probably in the 120s-130s and she has a toned, worked out figure. WTF. She is not flat-behinded at all. WTF?

I really do need to know why it is now all of a sudden "cool" to be out of shape? I mean honestly. This is not saying that you cannot be in shape and have behind, sheeet, look at most track athletes, gymnasts the Williams sisters. But that kind of behind is straight MUSCLE, it isn't fat and weirdly shaped. But what I am saying, is when did it become cute to look like your ass is deformed. I need to know that. And when did it become cute not to like in shape women?

Yes, black men have always liked big butts over the chest area. That is a given. But I mean, I think it obsession getting really ridiculous. Maybe it is the track runner that will always be in me, but that shit is not sexy. Not in the least.
