to everybody for the Mother's Day greetings =) wow, i feel so loved!

bah humbug! ikea shmea is charging for bags!!!

i'm all for going green and shit but wtf??? [i am just a ray of sunshine these days aren't i]?? so my mom, mark, vaughn, and my brother jun went to ikea last week to check some things out and i was really surprised when the cashier told my mom that they are now charging $0.05 for their plastic bags! whhhaaattt??? i felt like i was in the twilight zone back in the philippines asking for a bag from a vendor to put my wriggling live chicken and crabs in only to be told that they charge for bags. goddamit i moved to this country so i won't be charged for plastic bags and here it is now. if ikea really wants to go green and encourage people to recycle, they should do what the government does with bottles and cans: for every bag you save that has no rips/tears/bad odor, return it to ikea and they'll give you some cash. i bet THAT would be a hit. none of this checkout line highway robbery. i mean, i do have that ugly blue bag that they sell...only because i was forced to buy it one day when i had too much shit to carry and no love slave was around (back in the days when ikea didn't charge for bags and when love slaves were in fashion)!!! whatever [roll eyes here]. let's see how much their sales of votives, potholders, spoons, glasses, and all small things you need a bag for...let's see how much that'll plummet. my mom was telling me that maybe grocery stores will also follow suit. great. maybe we should make like other countries and carry groceries on our heads.

Dancing with the Stars!

i won a VIP ticket for dancing with the stars at work! wooohooo! it's gonna be on May 14th and i think we get to watch the stars dance (as opposed to results night), i'm so excited! the great thing about it is we don't have to stand in line, the bad thing about it is we can't bring cameras which is such a bummer! i might end up on tv so watch out for my face hahaha!
