Update in the World of Jen

Where did May go…that’s what I keep asking myself.  It’s weird, I felt that March was the SLOWEST month ever, then April and May practically flew by.  Well, whatever the case, a lot of things had happen…are happening…and is about to happen.  I figure it would be a good idea to not only get everybody up to speed, but a great reminder of all the things that’s going on in the World of Jen.

  • Finals are over and done with.  Thank goodness…
  • Grades are finally in.  I got gold, silver, and bronze metals.  (See, I’m gearing up for the Olympics.  Are you?)

  • Saw the Avengers.  You should too.  I never had time to write a review, but let’s just say, from a person who never saw any of the Avengers individual movies, I still understood what was going on.  If you want a better review, check out my buddies, Fog’s review and 3 Guys and 1 Movie’s review.  If you want a four year old’s point of view on this movie, you should read this.  It’s so cute and darling.

  • Got adopted by this stray cat.  I named him Cat, like from Breakfast from Tiffany’s, but ended up calling him Buddy.

  • Ate some great food.  I would post more photos, but I’ll spare you.

  • Checked up on the Euro for my European trip.  (OMG, I leave tomorrow)

  • Scruffy had his first haircut.  Let’s just say that I should’ve named him Falcor.  I’m secretly training him to think his name is Falcor.

  • Celebrated my homegirl, Faryn‘s birthday.  The fuzziness is due to the jungle juice I had all night.  LOL

  • I was thisclose on buying this members only jacket.  It was only $5.  I regret not buying it.

  • Realized that the Euro is much prettier than US Dollar.

  • Won an award and BEAT that evil University! BOOM, BABY!

  • Rocked the Red Lips…thoughts?

  • Spent some QT with my BFF, Ron.

  • Did a lot of this….

  • Won another award (from my boss)….a STAR award for being a great worker.

That’s pretty much it.

    Have fun on your trip, Jen. Leave Europe standing for the rest of us when you’re done with it :D

      And thanks for the linkage!!

      • May 22, 2012 at 4:11 PM #

        You are very welcome….anything for my buddy!

      I can’t make any promises. I tend to have “The Hangover” experience when I go on vacation. LOL I’m hoping there is no “Hostel” situation either! OMG, can you imagine.

    Have fun on your trip! I can’t wait to read about it and see your pics.

    I love that shot of you and the furry guy, so cute, the love you have for each other is so apparent.

    The euro is pretty and also valuable. I remember when it first came out, I was working at Prada so we actually got many invoices in Euro. It started off 1 to 1, then slowly climbed to 30% up on the dolla and it has remained there ever since.

    I enjoyed the Avengers too but thought they could have edited a bit better, it was too long (maybe too many big stars requirements for screen time?).

      thanks! I can’t wait for this trip to start! I’m here rushing through comments….it’s torture. I like to write semi-long comments. Anyway, I never noticed the Avengers being long, but I can see how it could be too long. All in all, I really liked that movie. I don’t think I would buy the DVD, but would watch it again if it was on TV or something.

      Are there any Summer movies you are looking forward to? I’m kinda curious about the Snow White movie.

    Ah Jen! What a fabulous time it looks like you’ve had. Loooove the red lips girl lol. You should rock them more often. Congrats on making it through finals cuz that always feels the best. Super excited for you and your trip. Be safe, have fun, and maybe I’ll run into you along the way lol ;)

    • May 22, 2012 at 4:08 PM #

      Thank you so much. I want to blog while I am away, but we’ll see how that goes, right? LOL.

      I want to rock the red lips more, but I haven’t found the perfect long wearing lip color. The color in the picture is a lipstick, which comes off after 10 mins. LOL Plus, I’m always paranoid the color smearing.

    Congrats on finals and all the medals!!! I wish academia were a sport ;)
    I want to see the Avengers! Maybe when it comes out on DVD, or this weekend, when we are at my husband’s parents house and they can watch J ;)
    What a pretty stray cat!
    I ate a lot too ;) — sashimi for Mother’s Day, every Sunday at sandwich shop, Taiwanese beef noodles for my sister’s birthday — I salivate
    Too bad about that dope jacket!
    I love the red lips! Not easy to pull off but you did it!
    Congrats on the STAR for work!
    I’ve been missing your posts! Welcome back!

      Man, it’s good to be back.

      I regret not getting that jacket too, but my dad stopped me. When I think about it, he stops me a lot from shopping…not a good shopping companion. LOL

    May has flown by! Sounds like you’ve had an amazing May so far. And a trip to Europe? Hope you have loads of amazing fun! Though seeing as you’re on your way, I hope you’re on your way to amazeballs of fun!

    • May 22, 2012 at 4:06 PM #

      HAHA. Yes, I hope it’s amazeballs too! Let me know about how the Snow White movie will be. I’m curious to see if it’s good…it looks good!

    Hey thanks so much for the shout out Jen :-)

    That pic of Buddy is awesome, tell him I said Meowww

    Now I want a bacon cheesburger for lunch

    Love the red lipstick

    Jealous of your trip to Europe

    Congrats on school and your awards

    • May 22, 2012 at 9:47 AM #

      Thanks! No need to thank me for the shout out…I’m happy to do it.

      Buddy would be excited to heard that you said hey! I’m trying to find a new home for him, but I’m already attached. I’m such a sucker.

      DO EEET…get a burger! You should get an instagram. A 3 Guys and 1 Movie instagram. I would totally follow that, then you can start torturing me with awesome pics of San Clemente. Honestly, instagram doesn’t drive a lot of new readers to my blog, but attracts a lot of new twitter followers all the time. Think about it….

    A month jam pack full of good times. Have a safe trip and a fantastic adventure. Come home safe.

    • May 22, 2012 at 9:39 AM #

      Thanks for the well wishes! If anything happens to me, you better name a child after me…well, okay, I’ll settle for a dog or cat, but no fishes. LOL.

      I’ll see you when I get back.

    Oh I love your list! I feel all updated on what you’re doing now. Even if you can just do a quick, point form list of a post while you’re gone, that will be better than nothing! If you can :)
    ANd I like the red lips too – if you’re afraid of the colour smearing you should try lip stain. I just got some the other day. It’s what I used for my wedding. Bold colour but it doesn’t smear and it stays on for hours. Seriously, try it.

    • May 23, 2012 at 12:05 PM #

      Oooh, lip stain. That sounds like something I would love to try it. What brand did you use?

      Greetings from Chicago.

        I used … (getting it) … oh, I got it at The Body Shop. So that’s who made it. It works really well. Do you have The Body Shop there?

      • May 24, 2012 at 4:20 PM #

        Ya, we do have a body shop here, but I never go in there. Okay, I’m going to seriously have to check out the store when I get back. Thanks!!

        Greetings from Amsterdam.
