So after stuffing my face with endless amounts of Thanksgiving dinner, I geared up for one of the biggest shopping days of the year. Oh yeah....Black Friday. My body guard (aka my bf) and I hit the streets at midnight, well after many of the more die hard Black Friday freaks did. Long story short, I left without incurring an bruises, and getting some of the stuff I wanted.
So why does my cookie hurt? There is just something about this weekend that makes me want to spend gobs of money.... My cookie is suffering from buyer's remorse. My bank account hates me even though I got great deals on everything.
Now Cyber Monday is well on its way. My strategy for tomorrow? Stay away from my computer. If I can't online shop, I can't buy it. Fool proof plan! Ha! I will be back on tomorrow to let you know what I tried not to buy :)

10 Celebs the World Could Live Without
- Lindsey Lohan- Go to jail already!
- Charlie Sheen- Tiger blood...need I say more?
- Kim Kardashian- "I take my work seriously." I didn't think club appearances counted as work.
- Carrot Top- He's just scary looking....eek!
- Angelina Jolie- Stop adopting every 3rd world child. They are kids, not porcelain dolls!
- John Gosselin- You are not the spokes person for Ed Hardy. Stop dressing like it.
- Megan Fox- Just annoying. No other way to put it.
- Holly Madison- Boring; thank goodness the people on her show are entertaining.
- Donald Trump- Way too arrogant for his own good.
- P. Diddy- Donald wanna be
5 Reasons why I HEART Google
- Google Reader is a time saver for all the different feeds I read everyday. It auto updates and even has created "bundles" for topics of interest. Definitely good if you like to be in the know.
- Google Docs provides templates for all of your whims. To note, my fave as of right now is the address form organizer. If you are a friend, expect an email soon asking for your mailing addresses.
- The themes for my iGoogle homepage... too cute for words. Right now mine is set to Street View.
- blogger.com..... I am sure I don't have to explain that one.
- The work culture at their Google offices is to die for. I envy the life balance mantra the employees enjoy as a result of their caring corporation. Life balance mantra is really an understatement. They have unique perks for their people. Check out the career section for this rad company.
Growing Up Viet: 10 Things White Kids Never Had to Deal With

****** Disclaimer: No that's not a photo of me as a kid. I figured we all look alike so it didn't matter what picture I used.

An Unintentional Tribute to a Vietnam War Vet
So I finally decided to say something to my leasing office about this homeless looking guy that wanders aimlessly around our complex. I have caught him staring at me and following me. Needless to say I felt extremely uncomfortable. The apartment manager told me not to worry. The guy isn't homeless. He is a resident. He's also a highly decorated Vietnam vet. I'm Vietnamese.....F MY COOKIE
