Happy St. Patrick's day everyone!!! I just got back to work taking my lunch hour to go watch the Parade on 5th Avenue. I got up to the front sidewalk by a nice old chinese man who saw my height and made sure I could see :) hahahaha right up on 48th street & 5th and it was so cool! Such a large and long parade! I was out there for almost an hour before I headed back but I couldn't find anyone selling the HATS or cool bong-bong headbands (ya know, with the balls that bounce - bong-bong - ya know?) :) hehehe :)
I just finished one motion for summary judgment and am working a memorandum of law. Lots of work to do today. It felt so great to be in NYC on a day like this! NYC truly has to be enjoyed with a friend or loved one....I kept wishing Ricky or one of my sisters or parents or a dear friend could be there to share it with me. I hope I'm not making a mistake by moving out of my parents loving home to live in an apt in NYC with a roommate I barely know who I spoke to last night and raised such things as...."oh you're into peace...well I'm really about sometimes war is the only answer" - but she said this in reference to her being israeli and probably speaking about the palestinians because she was raised in Israel and lived there 25 years and is in the States for the past 3 years only. I hope I get along with her....she wanted to make sure I wouldn't leave hair in the tub...I was like "of course not!" and I never do but her stating such a trivial thing made me wonder if she's at all anal...too anal....@.@??
Well she'll be gone by August....and then I can have a roomy of my own choice.....look on the bright side!

How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days was SUCH A GOOD MOVIE :) I even cried! And I laughed so much! Mathew McCaughnhey or however u spell his name is BEYOND gorgeous and Kate Hudson is one of my new fave actresses! The movie was just wonderful and it's a definite must see if you guys didn't already!
Mek and I hit Mandees where I bought a pair of black shoes and a gorgeous necklace - pink crystals on it - and she got shirts and a headband, and then we hit the POughkeepsie Galleria for the movie and afterwards shopped really fast! We hit my fave H&M where I bought her and myself these matching pretty sky blue floral dress shirts and I got a pair of sunglasses for $3.50 and pretty silver hoop earrings for $3 :) AND We stopped at DSW and and found GREAT bargains on boots! Leather boots I got for $17! And she got a pair for $13 and they had it in my size! (5 1/2)
I like Nacho chips with cheese at the movies now :)
M&M brought me home EMMA from the library and I am busy reading it for the 2nd time. So much I missed the first time.
I'm waiting now for the report from AZORES where Bush & company are holding a summit to decide about Iraq and they're somehow throwing in Palestine into the mix...
I was telling Ricky before - I hate Saddam too but I don't want to go to war and lose thousands of lives to remove that tyrant and therefore I am against the war. And I really don't like it how people are being so childish in their displays of french dislike. I want to go out and BUY french wine in support of their peace stance. I may be an American citizen and be patriotic but I support Peace and LIVES far above a nation's desire for regime change - not at the cost of innocent civilians in Iraq, not at the cost of our own soldier's lives - and ESP. not at the cost of some huge back-lash event I fear will come if we DO attack Iraq.....
I'm having some hot cocoa now....was so fun to have my sisters home! I got some nice new clothes for cheap, wasn;t able to meet with my potential new roomate in the city but I hope to talk to her on the phone tonight....her name is Abby :) I hope we get along great! Her birthday is in April so I wanna get her something!
It;s still not clear yet if Ricky is coming or not....we'll see...hope he can....
K-la I love almost all the music to Phantom of the Opera! I hope I can see it although we should've booked tickets by now....... DonRodman nice to meet you and thank you so much :) Do you have a blog too? R sweetheart *MWAH* I always have time for you babe. :) hi Rachel! Nice to meet you - drop me a line ok? I have such little time nowadays I don't email at all! :) Caoilte!!!!! I am DEFINITELY interested! What would he charge? I was thinking of using this other friend's friend's server but he hasn't gotten back to me in a long while and last December he said he'd charghe $36/mo for 85GB of bandwith and 5GB of space. Could you tell me a little more? Please email me! be83398@yahoo.com :) Manu thank you so much :) You should design something too! ImmobileShadow thank you as well! :) I can't wait to move in around April 5-6th :)
My hands are freezing and I need to go wash dishes. Hope you guys are all doing well!!!

09:13 p.m.
I've made up my mind and I feel at peace and content with the decision after praying to God to guide me on it. Now only if my dad will be happy with it - the subletting lease and all - he doesn't like the idea of it but that's cause he's a broker and just wants to make sure I'll be ok in August!
Ricky may be coming for a few days of his spring break to visit next week!!! If so, we're going to the Metropolitan Museum to see the Leonardo Da Vinci exhibition they have until the 22nd! AND if we confirm all this, I think we may even go to see Phantom of the Opera :D He owes me a broadway musical on a bet I won! :D
My sisters are ALL coming home tomorrow - including Nithi! YAAAYY! Can't wait to go shopping with them on Saturday and to go see How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days :) I adore Kate Hudson!
I was talking to one of the other associates at work and she was saying how after depositions, preliminary conferences, and all sorts of other things u have to do in the morning and afternoon and you come back to a desk full of paperwork (complaints, answers, and a billion motions) - it's draining. And I thought - LORD I'm glad then I have this awesome luxury building to go to! Will be great to not have to climb steps and I can just take the elevator up and be nice to have a doorman :D hehehehe :) And I was imagining how I could come home and relax on the balcony with my copy of Vogue or Cosmo and ahhhhhhh :D
In addition to Cosmopolitan and Vogue, I'm also getting subscriptions to the following magazines: "National Geographic", "Discover", and perhaps "Time" as well. I want to stay on top of science, and the world in general and it turns out with all the appearances and things we make, there's a LOT of waiting around time which is filled in by reading. Which is good cause I love to read :) I could even write then too.....so much material in the characters all over NYC!
Once the apartment thing is settled, and I set a budget, I'm going to workout how to take classes in Japanese, Drawing & Painting, Karate, and sign up for gym membership at Bally's since the gym in my new apt. building is expensive ($775/year)!! I'd rather pay just $19/mo for Bally's!
BIG HUGS and WARM thank yous to Crystal, Miyu-chan, Jamie, K-la, Janeen, RMN, and Sharukh! :) I am very thankful the long and arduous search and stress is over :) Jamie it's on the west side off 8th Avenue :) I really like the area and love that I'm just a few blocks from Times Square and close enough to central park as well :) Marisa thank you! I'm so glad you loved the sites! I hope to add a lot more this summer!
I need to sleep now. Good night everyone and if I miss any comments forgive me! HUGS to Sarah Beth, Rence-chan, Lady, Adrianne, Dana, Callie, Rebecca, Caroline and Steph!! whew! :)
mmm sleepy....bed will feel so good right now :)

saving a chunk of money will do me no good now CAUSEEEE *DRUM ROLL* I FOUND AN APARTMENT IN A HIGH RISE BUILDING THE WESTSIDE ON 48TH STREET!!!!!!!!!! I am SO glad I didn't take that 1 bedroom for myself - THIS place is my ideal! The room I'll be taking has a balcony!!!! And my roomate will be Israeli and the girl who showed me the place, who lives there right now, is named Sapna and is Indian too and is going to introduce me to all the other Indians in the place :) The apartment is GORGEOUS! Great living room I can decorate with anything I want! PLUSSSSSS this place is a DOORMAN BUILDING WITH a GYM - FULL GYM WITH SWIMMING POOL and it has a ROOF DECK! And guess how much I pay? $1190! :D :D :D :D
The only good/bad thing is the Israeli girl will be leaving in August which gives ME room to pull in a friend to the apartment or to find a new roomate or move out! But I think this will be ideal for me as I do have friends who'd be probably able to move in with me over the summer or by then I'd prolly be able to find a roomate within the building itself! :) Very happy :)
AWESOME location - GREAT sunlight - I love this place :) I'll be moving in as soon as I'm ready :)

08:30 p.m.
I went to my first hearing today at Wall Street! Lasted an hour and 45 minutes but it was fun :) Interacting with the plaintiff's client and the other attorneys was fun :) I love my job today! I was on top of things, work is proceeding smoothly, and I really like my co-workers :)
Last night after I came home, I spent the evening with my folks watching FEAR FACTOR and when I woke up this morning and heard my dad about, I was SO HAPPY I didn't take that apartment! Now I know for sure it was the right decision - I was thinking to myself on the train "Lord I was CRAZY to give up all this and live alone! Better to go from this situation to an equal or better situation!"
Both of my folks told me last night I can wait as long as I like and they're happy to know I choose to live with a roomate but to just be careful with the sublets ;) They were saying to secure something in April or May latest since I'd be admitted by then and they didn't want me to be tired with late nights from work and appearances. I agree whole-heartedly!
My fingers are freezing down here so I must get up and get lunch packed and get ready to sleep. Good night everyone and thank you SO MUCH for all of your support! I love you guys!

On the train home I realized that what I gained is more than what I lost, I'm really happy with my decision and I'm glad I didn't take the apartment.
I'm gonna stick with my original plan and live it up in the city with a friend or a roommate which is what I planned on all along.

01:56 p.m.
buyer's remorse....is exactly what I got...I called the broker today and withdrew my offer on the apartment...why? Cause I got so emotional and upset about the thought of being alone and that I may be lonely living on my own....and would miss having the company of family or friends.....hated the thought of every night being alone in a small apartment.....granted the kitchen and bedroom and bath were nice....but that and the fact that it was nearly 2 weeks of my paycheck gone to just rent and living expenses with not much left over for everything else...and add to that being alone...and I just got so scared and so worried that I was making a bad decision.....after talking it over with Ricky I decided to cancel it.....so I withdrew....my parents are giving me flak about rushing and now losing my $500 deposit and how I should just listen to them and wait now.............funny.......now that I ended that apartment deal....I feel queasy.........like just giving that up - what did I do? Now I'm back to square one......searching for an apt...only now I want an apartment to share with someone....ideally an apartment neither she (or they) and I are living in but we move into so both of us could decorate and it wouldn't be like me moving into her space.....
I hope I made the right decision.....

Well...it's done! I got my apartment! My 1st apartment in NYC! When I saw it with my dad today and his friend I was a lil displeased in that it wasn't as big as I had thought (remembered anyway) - the "living room" area is smaller than I remembered and I'll need to fit furniture accordingly.
After signing papers at the broker's office forEVER we headed out to China Town and spent a while driving and buying fish! We grabbed lunch from a street vendor selling GYROS with SAUSAGE and MMMMMMMMM was it good! He put white cream? sauce? with green onions and stuff on top and WOW....hot and yummy!
I got to meet papa's friend's daughter who is 6 years old and she's so cute! Papa is so good with kids! He was being such a doting father-figure-like guy on this 6 yr old and I can see how he must have been with me and my sisters as well.
however, right now my papa is giving me the guilt treatment/lecture/real world reality about leaving and not being able to support him with their building the new home and that all his children will be like that - I keep saying all of us (sisters and myself) will be helping! Just give us a chance to get established and settled.....but no I hear "I helped my mom at the age of 17 and still helping and now I'm helping so many families" *sigh* I know my dad would rather I have waited like 6 months before an apt to have TONS of savings and such but I simply can't wait 6 months - by then he'd try to convince me to stay in new rochelle and live there and commute to my job.....he went on to tell me how I'll learn how hard life is....how I'll have so many expenses....etc etc......*DOUBLE SIGH*
I'm excited about the new apartment but I cant help thinking about how much I'll be leaving.....I love my folks so much and I may be a little lonely at times living on my own but I'll see them one weekend every month, my sisters will come stay one weekend every month with me, and I'll have some friends over or even ricky or I'll be out in L.A. - I need this kind of independence and taste of living on my own and handling my finances and learning to be self-sufficient even if papa thinks it's a stupid waste of money.
Papa's already decided what furniture I need and how to go about purchasing it. His words were "I (meaning him) have time to find furniture" to my question "We going next weekend to shop?" mmmm........
Ricky and I were hoping he could come visit me for spring break in another week which is our only and last chance to see each other for 1 week but it won't happen since I'll be home with my folks and not in the apartment before his spring break ends......and after that I don't know when we'll see each other again.....it's so hard :( ..............
I want a victorian style bed - like the one shown here http://www.ethanallen.com/jsp/universalprod.jsp?itemID=135620&mainSelect=2&subSelect=1
I'm going to go clean up my room and try to sketch how I want my apartment to look.....
ShaRukh :) *HUGS* I know you didn't mean it like that :) thank you :)
Good night my wonderful friends who've been wishing me well so long and so much! You're all in my prayers and thoughts!

11:03 p.m.
Finally finished reading everyone's journals! WHEW! I missed so much! First Prayers to Janeen and Adrianne *HUGS* u both like crazy! And Happy Birthday in advance to Rebecca! *HUG*
I looked at 1 more apartment tonight and it was CRAPPY! A tub in the bathroom and it was FILTHY - CRAPPY! haahaha that means I am sticking with my beautiful apartment! YOU GUYS I GOT AN APARTMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's going to cost me a fortune though........landlord as of right now won't budge on the price of $1275 and the broker's fee is $1683 and I have to pay security of $1275 and 1 months rent of $1275 and the broker's fee and I definitely don't have ANY kind of money like that yet. OY! Gotta wait till next weekend when I get paid again.
I was trying to figure out how to pay off credit card debt, my law school loans and monthly bills etc.....It's going to be hard but I think I can do it! It'll require me sticking to a strict budget but I can do it!
God I'm so excited! My very own apartment and it's so nice! Mummy told me Seaman's store in Yonkers was having a huge sale where you can pay for the furniture in March 2004 but then Papa said how the interest would pile up by then as well. DANGIT! Furniture is going to be another thing to buy and pay off. I want.......1 coffee table, a study table for the computer and all my stuff, book shelves, a full-bed, and a sofa-bed so my sisters and whoever visits can sleep over, and probably another smaller sofa, and 2 end tables.....I think I can get deals on living room sets.....OH and a dresser/vanity for my bedroom. Dang......one of my closest friends Nitz told me to look in the local city papers on Sunday for places to buy furniture - hope I can find something good!
My office is so cool :) The people are so wonderful! Matt, one of the partners, loves to tease me about my height - he'll go "oh where's Nishi?" and look everywhere up and down ;) On Fridays all the attorneys go have lunch together so today almost all of us (except 1) went to this Irish pub restaurant that opened up and Matt paid for me! How sweet is he? They're so lively! They talk about a lot of things I'm not too familiar with....or never really had experience or knowledge about (they're all older than me) but it's not silly stuff - more interesting and funny things - it was fun :) I think they're a great bunch of people and am thankful I was blessed with them :) Plus one of the associates lives on E 63rd and he's really happy for me about the E 73rd place :D
Work is going well! I'm on top of things and learning so much!
my little twin sisters are coming next saturday!! Can't wait for them to see my new apt! I think I'm going to move into the new place on March 21st or 22nd....as soon as I get the furniture all moved in! WHEEEE :D
I started buying Vogue and I love the styles in it.....am getting very very fashion and style conscious since I started working and I like it :) I've always loved dressing up or just putting together a really great outfit - whether it was casual, dressy, business whatever. I'm all over the board though - I'm the kinda girl who likes to wear floral prints to trousers & silk tops to a pair of old navy jogging sweats and a t-shirt :) Pretty much anything goes as long as I like it and feel it looks good on me!
Papa and I and a friend of his who used to be a cab driver are going to see my apt tomorrow - and there papa will read over the lease and everything :) I can't wait till this apartment is MINE! :) After that, we're going to china town cause mummy wants fish and shrimp from there.
I'm off to bed! Night everyone!

I THINK I FOUND MY APARTMENT!!!!!!!!!! It's this gorgeous 1 bedroom for $1200 on the lower E. 70's on the upper east side and it's got a living room, full kitchen, and a HUGE BATHROOM - twice the size of the one in my parents own HOUSE! AND it's got 3 closets AND a linen closet, and the bedroom is just PERFECT! I'm looking at a couple more places today and tomorrow but I think this is the one that's meant for me :) It's a beautiful location and the price fits into my budget! OH THANK GOD! When I came home last night and told my folks they were excited too and as soon as I got into my room I got on my knees and thanked God! :)
Janeen AWWW I wish we could meet up!!!! Don't worry - everyone says my name wrong the first time or so :) It's "Nih-she" :) *HUG* By the way, you don't update ur journal often! Can you mail me your mailing address within the next 2 weeks or so? I wanna start getting something out to you within the next 1-2 months :)
ShaRukh, Dana, Jamie ok you 3, enough about the short clothes! It's embarassing enough that I talk about it on a public journal but even worse when I get suggestions to shop at kids section.......I'm not THAT short and I have hips!
RMN thank you :) I agree whole-heartedly. I haven't gotten to check your journal but I will this Friday or Saturday nights :)
Miyu-chan, Sarah Beth, Rence-chan, Danielle, Lydia, Crystal, Caroline, Rebecca, Lady, K-La, and Callie *HUGS* I hope you guys are doing well! I can't wait to catch up on your lives this weekend!
Neema you're welcome! I'm glad that page was useful! :) I'll be adding much more to it with time :) Waxing at the salon takes 30 seconds! And ten they tweeze a little and you come out looking perfect! I try now to go once a month and upkeep the rest of the time on my own.
ok I must get started working before an associate or partner steps in and catches me typing away instead of actually working ;)
See you guys later!

I got 4 new files today making the grand total FOURTEEN (14) files I have to work on! YOWZA!
After the moodiness and depressiveness, I bought something tonight which cheered me up a lot! I've finally acquired the Imperial Highness Anastasia Doll! :)
She's going to be lovely on the display stands in my new apt eventually!
I want book shelves...nice tall ones wherever I move into because I have so many nice books and so many odds and ends and trinkets I've collected....
Today during lunch I went and got a manicure and pedicure and OH was it HEAVENLY! Exactly what I needed!
hehehe :) okie I need go sleep. Night everyone!

09:49 p.m.
holy heckers - Monday night and I'm blogging after so long! Can't tell you how busy I've been or the crazy things that happened and what I've been through! Friday I found out how much the goverment and state takes out of my taxes - FEDERAL WITHOLDING I WANT MY MONEY BACK! Saturday spent the morning helping my mom cook and tidy up cause one of my fave cousins, Ryne, and uncle and aunty came at 3 :) It was so nice :) But they talked on and on at the dining table for hours about nonsense stuff! Finally when it was time for bed Ryne chachy and I got some girl-time and I did her nails and we got caught up on each other's love lives and I told her about Ricky and she told me about her new husband David - they've been married for 2 years now! :) We talked about life and career and everything - was so nice :) It was a sleepover and we just stayed up late talking.
Next day, after they left, I went driving in the rain to the mall - driving in the rain is fun :) Except when it's pouring and you can't see clearly but otherwise it's fun :) Anywayz, BOY was it a mistake to go to the Danbury Fair Mall! I couldn't find ANYTHING except 1 pair of earrings I wound up buying after being at the mall for like 4 hours to make myself feel better. VERY pretty earrings but cost me $16! Macy's - what can I say?
I hate being short and being a size 5 1/2 in shoes. NOTHING's ever in my size, no pants fit me unless I get it tailored, and shirts that fit girls perfectly - ending at their waist or hip, are too long for me and don't tell me to get clothes for petite people like at petite sophiticate - those are OLD PEOPLE clothes.
I pretty much got depressed after that and went to the CHristmas Treet STore with ricky on the phone and I picked up a sugar dish for mummy and a very pretty glass box candle holder for myself.
Monday and I saw finally an apartment for $1200 on 81st street that was the best I've seen thus far! It still wasn't perfect as the bathroom was the size of a closet! But I'm keeping it as a backup!
Tomorrow, during my lunch hour, I'm going to get a mnnicure and a pedicure and after work, I'm going to see another apartment.
I've been walking so much and eat so healthy now, I dropped 2 more pounds!
Caroline I got ur email! U'll be getting something in the mail within the next 2 weeks :D
I need to get ready for bed now. Just took a long hot shower and need to pack lunch. Night folks!

9:00 p.m.
holy heck I can't believe I couldn't post until today! SO MUCH happened! First off CONGRATS TO DANIELLE!!!! I can't believe you'll be at Rutgers and so near me! *HUGGGGGGGG* I can't wait to take you to china town!
I fully decided today I don't want to be a lawyer for long. As I was preparing answers, motions, and various other things, I just....didn't really care for it.....granted I do a great job and am adept and I'll be a fantastic attorney within 6 months who knows everything about the law and how to be every inch of a laywer, but I just don't think I'll be fulfilled.....working at this stuff doesn't really DO anything - sure we help some client somewhere but I want to effect SOCIAL CHANGE! I want to effect things on a grander scale! I want to do MORE than just be an insurance defense attorney/litigator! BLECH! I want to sing, I want to perform, I want to get involved in politics, be a driving force behind the creation of new policy that changes things for the better either here or in some country! I'm in my element when I'm in charge of things to create, design, and implement! I've got to somehow make all this happen!
On Tuesday night I had quite possibly the worst night of 2003 so far. Not only had it been a long day at work but I didn't get home until 10:30 because of stupid apartments I went to see with a broker. 10:30!! These apts....one was decent...really...but it wasn't home....it looked...honestly....like someone who was desperate to live somewhere and couldn't find anything better.....it was 4 flights up and in my heels, that was dangerous! I felt like bursting into tears (and did a little on the train with ricky on the phone) cause I was so exhausted and so depressed about this apartment search. Searching so tiredly for weeks now and it feels like no end!
I saw another sublet on Wednesday but SURPRISE - the owner forgot to tell me she had a CAT and the cat has a lovely EYE RASH and LOTSA skin problems.....oh boy! The room itself had some wooden loft thing at the top and I was like NUH UH.
Then my Dad brought me a light of hope showing me some places on 9th avenue b/t 36th and 37th (right by Penn Station and Madison Sq. Garden) that he;d found - GORGEOUS :D he said he was told they'd be 1000-1500 but when I called the brokers today, it was actually more like 1900-2200. *SIGH*
As sad and angry and hopeless as I've felt this week with career and apartment, I see a glimmer of hope. Just sent out 14 emails to more subleters and subleasors where a couple of them are actually subleasing the WHOLE apartment. Maybe that'll work?
*cross my fingers and hope to GOD*
As for career....my hope is that if I start to work on research topics on weekends and get published in newspapers and magazines etc, and start getting involved with Democratic Party and get in touch with the right connections, I may be able to break out of insurance defense in 2-4 years and be on a new career path.
Of course, my dream is to do all that at age 29+ because I wanted to do more than law and politics before then - I want to perform! I keep singing lately - at work, on the train....coming up with new songs and lyrics (I've written over 40 songs in the past 2 years alone) and there's just SO MUCH INSIDE ME....so much that I don't want to get buried by work and life........I so very much want to sing and record my songs that I wrote from my heart and have people listen to it and maybe change their lives or at least let them know "hey, I've been there where you are and you'll get through it too!"
GOD! Only He could make all this happen for me. I'll keep praying. I hope He's been listening to my apartment requests cause I'm getting pretty depressed over it!
It's almost 9 and I need to get my outfit ready for tomorrow and my lunch....and get some me time by relaxing for a bit............I went to Duane Reade (a store like Rite Aid but with better prices) and I bought L'Oreal facial moisturizer and Oil of Olay Total Effects Intensive Restoration and St. Ives Intensive Healing lotion. These things work SO WELL!
I'm thinking of starting to use foundation.....I read Cosmopolitan every month and I also got Glamour this month too and I saw a couple celebrities with flawless-looking skin after using makeup and their before pictures - Gwyneth Paltrow for example (one of my FAVE actresses) has freckles and a reddish complexion but with foundation etc, her skin looks perfect. I have a reddish effect around the sides of my nose too and always wanted something to give me that all over balanced look. I wonder what a good foundation for Indian skin is........
I started walking (well only on Tuesday) during my lunch hour. I walked that day from where I work all the way to 59th Street, on the corner of Central Park on 5th Avenue. But I wish I hadn't cause it was freezing and I lost one of my favorite black earrings :( It's this beautiful black tear-drop earring I bought from RAINBOW in the Poughkeepsie Galleria. I think I'll go back there this Saturday as I'm going to do HEAVY DUTY shopping on Saturday early in the morning to late afternoon.
I'm going to buy: earrings, necklaces, a new big black tote bag, POSSIBLY a small, light briefcase so that when I get admitted and need to bring cases etc, they won't get mushed in my book bag or new tote I'll use everywhere. AND I NEED SHOES! The stupid Italian leather boots I paid a fortune for I REGRET!!!!! STUPID square-toe part - the leather started scraping off after I somehow or other must have scraped the shoes while walking. WHAT KINDA LEATHER DOES THAT? AND the inside of the boots, the sole where the "name" is? It started slipping to the side! WHAT THE HECK? I"M STICKING TO MACY'S!!!!!!! I also need to buy more shirts and skirts.
I estimate spending $300-$400 at the mall this weekend. My dad is gonna kill me! :)
Must get going. *HUGS* to all!

09:38 p.m.
whenever mummy takes me to the train she always takes forever getting out of the driveway ALONE (mostly cause there's snow on either side but the driveway's clear and also cause she's cautious - yet neither me nor nithi nor papa ever have a problem!) and I kept thinking - one of these days, I'm going to miss my train - and ya know what? I missed the 7:29 this morning! I wound up having to take the 7:44 and waiting in the cold! I love my mommy so much but sometimes she's so annoying and frustrating and my patience is almost non-existant with her! Like tonight on the ride home I told her how the train doors close and they don't let anyone on, even though they stand still, not moving - but then she insists upon how dangerous getting on a moving subway or train is and how I have to be careful regardless of my protests that the doors close and don't move so no CHANCE of getting on a moving train or subway. AGH! FRUSTRATION! I was like "ALRIGHT WHATEVER!"
I got another file at work today from Tony. Told me not a rush, only due in 3 weeks. Oy. I spent 7 hours today working on a motion for summary judgment for one case. Hoping to finish a first draft on that tomorrow and start the research for a 2nd motion on another case that I hope to finish by Thursday or Friday.
A motion for summary judgment is when you tell the judge - look these people have no evidence against us, no case, it's open and shut - dismiss their claim against us. ANd you back this up with pages and pages of argument and proof.
You have so much work that to save time you eat while you work in your office so I was munching away on cookies and carrots and sandwhich and banana etc but finally at 2:30 I was getting so MAXED OUT from non-stop work that I left and walked around and found a beauty salon and stepped in and got a manicure :) I just had them clean up my hands and cuticles and paint it clear so it would dry fast. My hands look great and it cleared my head and made me feel a lot better!
I decided with Ricky on the phone to walk during my hour-long lunch break! I'll eat throughout while I'm working and walk every day for an hour! I'm going to bring my sneakers and a pair of my Old Navy cotton track pants with me to work to change into :)
I saw the apartment with the fireplace - only one problem......I get a male roomate and a female roomate who will be....loud.....not a good sitch for me although how I LOVED the area! *SOB* I don't mind loudness like on a friday or saturday night cause heck I like to party with the best of them, but now that I work I need my sleep on weeknights!
Rence-channnnnnnn find me an apartment! *SOB* or better yet, move to NYC and come be my roomate - I found AWESOME affordable 2 bedroom apartments for $2000 and under that I could afford if I had a roomate (if only Sashi could've come through :( )
Jamie ur kidding, right? ECCO? YEEE HAW! You're awesome! Thanks for letting me know! I bet they cost a fortune? Or aren't available to the general public?
Sarah Beth don't worry about it! *HUG* We don't want a loser like that on the UMML who sends nonsense one-liners and who with one reprimand ducks out.
Rebecca *HUG* I'm sorry I didn't reply sooner - so gosh darn busy! I sent an email just now!
Miyu-chan how about you move down to NYC and live with me too? :D It'd be so much fun!!! I hope the right place comes to me already....I'm tired :(
I'm hungry too. Must eat. *HUGS* to everyone.
And to my special darling, Ricky, *MWAH* Love you and miss you.

8:09 p.m.
I'm going to see an apartment tomorrow (a sublet) where it's a 3 bedroom apartment and the room I get HAS A FIREPLACE! :D and a huge closet! The girl on the phone sounded great! :) She seemed like she'd be a cool roomate - wants to meet a Starbucks to chat first! YAAY Starbucks! It's on a great location too - being in midtown-east! :)
I spent today walking in the rain (with an umbrella of course) all through Manhattan looking at apartments and the first I looked at was on the upper west side and was a decent 1 bedroom apt but the kitchen was tiny and the apartment looked lonely....dunno how to describe it otherwise...but just the way it was set....I'd feel lonely there....although it would've been great if I was desperate, I'm not - it just didn't feel like a place I could call home and for $1100/mo not including utilities, I want to make sure it's a place I'll be happy living in. Next, I saw the sublet and met some really nice people! They were a Japanese brother and sister and their apt would've been great had it not been for the fact that, with me getting the bedroom, the girl would be making the living room into a bedroom...leaving only a small center area as a living section (which is nothing really)...........I'm glad my parents want me to stay as long as I can with them and even longer after that - they keep telling me to take my time in apt. hunting, there's no rush, wait to find the place I can call home :) But I really want a "home" within the next 2 weeks.
I'll be looking at 3-5 different places this week - hope one of them works out.
There was this nice little shop at Grand Central along the way to the Times Square shuttle that I stopped and picked up a chocolate croissant at - YUMMM - I've decided I love chocolate croissants :)
On the train ride home, I was so confused about the full 1 bedroom apartment and the sublet I called Mekha (one of my little sisters) and she helped me feel so much better - telling me to wait and keep looking - that I didn't have to choose any of these :) She's majoring in psychology to become a psychologist - she's gonna be amazing one day :)
Guess what? My feet don't hurt - cause I wore SNEAKERS! Where can I find high heeled boots that feel like I'm wearing sneakers? Someone invent it already!
Anywayz, I'm going to enjoy the rest of my evening before beginning the working grind tomorrow! See you all tomorrow :)

11:37 p.m.
Evening everyone :) Boy what a day I had! Turned out our relatives weren't coming today, but next Saturday instead. So papa and I spent the morning cleaning and everything for nothing ;) I washed dishes and papa vacuumed and he was so nice to even clean the sink and toilet for me in my bathroom :) He's a great dad :) And he joked "I cleaned my bathroom too!" and I'm like "Really?" and he's like "Yah! What you think?" :) Implying that he does real housework too! Which he does :) After washing dishes, I swept, cleaned the rooms, changed bed sheets, cleaned the bathroom tub and floor, and then cut and chopped beans, and THEN FINALLY I left to get a haircut and have my eyebrows waxed!
Getting a haircut felt so good! My hair looks fabulous now and my eyebrows - they did a GREAT job! If any of you ladies out there want to feel good - treat urself to a haircut and some pampering salon time! Only thing I wish I could've gotten was a manicure - my cuticles are a mess (dried and stuff) from all the washing and cleaning. I only paid $22 for shampoo, cut and blow-dry and just $6 for my eyebrow wax! Cheapest I found anywhere up here! :)
It was pouring rain ALL DAY but I didn't mind. I liked driving in the rain :) It's not at all dangerous and it's fun! It's only bad if it's pouring down so hard that you can't see - but if it's a nice rain all good :)
OH I baked 2 cakes! Chocolate and strawberry! Made the house smell so good!
ANDDDDDDDDDDDDDD for the first time in a year, I took a bubble bath! Since I'd cleaned the tub so good and nobody was coming over, I knew it was now or never! My body felt soooooooo relaxed afterwards! During the bubble bath I was like.....okay....the water's slowly leaving and cooling down.....what's so great about bubble baths again? But now I know - afterwards, your body feels SO GOOD!
mmmmmmmm.......so anywayz......worked hard but rested good too :)
Tomorrow is apartment hunting time! Lord help me!!
I've decided who should win my UsagiandMamoru.com Valentine's Day Contest I held this month.
The winners are the ones who had to spend quite a bit of money and time and energy and who created something stunning.
the 8" neo queen statue ---> the Barnes and Noble Certificate
the selenity and endymion painting on wood ---> a Sailor Moon R animation artbook ($35 value)
the painted wine glass ---> Collection of rare SailorMoon finger puppets ($36 value)
the selenity and endymion engravement on a mirror ---> Rare real hair 4" inch dolls of Sailor Uranus and Super Sailor Chibi Moon ($30 value)
Sailor Cosmos stained glass painting ---> in addition to the rare sailormoon cards, I'll also be giving her a Japanese manga volume of Sailor Moon in my posession, and probably some other odds and ends.
Those who didn't win the main prizes, if they provided return mailing addresses, will receive Sailor Moon cards and/or stickers.
I don't have all the winners email addresses and I can only connect 1 person who emailed me with the item they made so unless they read this journal or subscribe to the UMML or the UM.com Updates List, they won't know they won until they get their prizes in the mail.
Prizes should be mailed within the next 3-4 weeks since I can only get to the post office on Saturdays and next Saturday isn't possible ;)
Good night everyone!

10:52 p.m.
oh the hassles I put up with sometimes! *waggles finger in ricky's direction* ;)
I'm drinking raspberry tea and shivering here in the basement cause no wood was put on. Mummy and Papa picked me up from the train station around 7:20 and we went straight to this mallu family's place near town because the mom in the family is going to India tomorrow and mummy wanted to give her something to give to appachen (my grandfather).
Visiting them was so nice :) We had dinner there (yummy shrimp curry with coconut pieces in it) and I got to talk to Anu (one of the daughters) and met a new friend named Heidi (Anu's cousin) and Anu's brother Alan who wants to go to culinary school to become a chef! We all talked and it was fun :) Anu's mom, Philo Aunty, is going to India tomorrow for treatment of some body part she injured in an accident 10 years ago. They were asking me lots of lawyer questions cause the attorney working on her case had settled it in 1996 but had to also file another case to recover medical bill payments and he hadn't progressed on that since 1997!
We didn't get home till 9:30 and I was so so so tired! I got ANOTHER file at work today and now I'm really starting to feel the work.......I have 2 summary judgment motions to prepare and research on another case to prepare the answers and everything! Whew! And I just know more cases are going to come next week.......and then once I have to go on apperances and stuff HOW am I going to get all this work done? I definitely need an apartment in Manhattan just so I can stay late if I have to and not worry about train commute late at night.
It was nice to go visiting :) I love socializing like that - having people over and visiting other people's places! I love being a hostess :) Like putting out yummy cakes and using good china etc etc :) hahahaha I'm so girly ;) I'm looking fwd to when my cousins and aunt and uncle visit tomorrow! But unfortunately, I get to spend the day cleaning the bathroom, washing dishes, and vacuuming, as well as changing the bedsheets and cleaning up the rooms. Oh lucky me. Yeesh. It may be my off-days but I work hard on them too!
I'm so sick of the train commute....GOD I hope I find a good apartment for myself soon!
I'm sleepy so must get going. See you guys tomorrow!

09:47 p.m.
well forget walking around during lunch! I was a busy bee today! One pf the partners though said I did a great job on the 6 page memorandum I made :) AND today I got my very own file!!! It's mine from start to finish :) YIPPEEE ANDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD I GOT BUSINESS CARDS! They say "Nishi Rajan - Counsellor at Law" hehehe :)
I have an appt for 2pm Sunday to see apts on the upper east side and am scheduling more for the rest of Sunday on the upper west side and lower east side. WHEW! I better wear sneakers!
One of my fave cousins Ryne Chachy is coming with her husband David and her parents (my aunt and uncle) this weekend. Dunno how long they're staying but I'll be spending Saturday entertaining (and cleaning) and on Sunday my dad's gonna take them to FOX WOODS CASINO! :) I've been there before and it's cool :)
I had such a long tiring afternoon - had to stand on the train for half an hour because it was so crowded (from trains being combined due to the snow) and in HEELS no less!! And I had a splitting headache. Felt so good to finally come home and have advil and eat dinner with my folks. They loved the business cards I got :)
I'm off to bed. Good night everyone *HUG* Sweet dreams too!

09:42 a.m.
honestly, I get up so early to make an early train and I might as well have not bothered! Trains were running 10-15 minutes late! I just reached work now. Jamie thanks :) But I've been apartment hunting so far for 2-3 weeks and I know what's out there - I've seen the good and the bad - the bad are mostly studios and they suck and the few 1 bedrooms I found that were nice I rejected because the buildings security either sucked or the surrounding area was bad or there just wasn't ample room for the money they were charging. I have faith though! I had friends who left the city 2 years ago who'd rented apartments for just $1050 and those were 1 bedrooms in the east village and nice ones at that! Although now those kind of apts are surely taken. Anywayz, I'll cross my fingers and keep looking.
My office is so nice to walk into now with the paintings and diplomas :D and the roses are still lovely. So quiet....all the other attorneys are at court for motions or depositions or conferences.....I kinda like it that the office is so quiet in the morning....helps me get a lot of work done.
I need to get my hair cut and re-layered.....I think I'll walk around during lunch break and try to find a good place for a haircut nearby to work and go there this evening before I go home. I need to find a Citibank as well! :) Still haven't deposited my first paycheck!
See you all later.

08:56 p.m.
Jamie I'm in luck! I found 4 apartments on the upper east side on 66th street and down for $1150 :) They're all 1 bedrooms. I'm going to go see them next week. Hope one of them works out! Also am going to see some apartments for sublet and see how that would work out! They're only charging anywhere from 800 - 1000.
Sawah I miss you too! Let's try and have a catch up chat on Friday night? I would LOVE your copy of Emma! But what to give you in return? I still have to send you the little Pluto real hair doll! I'll find something else to give you! *HUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG* love u!
Suni!! I LOVE the gift you sent me! You're such a great designer! And what you had to say....wow.........I'm going to post it here in this journal. I really was speechless. Thank you.
Dana any good prints shop in a mall or around your town or city will be fine! Check your yellowpages or Yahoo! yellow pages! :) I paid $55 to have my diploma framed *sigh* and if I had gotten more expensive and fancier wood-frame-styles, it would've easily been $100-$200. Good luck :) Definitely frame ur diploma - it looks so beautiful and really gives more meaning to your accomplishment.
I wound up wading through slush to get to my office building today and hailed a cab to take me to work cause I was carrying the heavy paintings and diplomas and also because the trains were all messed up and I wound up getting out at 47th street - numerous blocks from where I work - cab only cost $3 though and saved me walking 10 blocks and 2 avenues carrying all this stuff :) Spent the entire day gathering facts for a motion for summary judgment...won't explain ;) And at 4:30 I put up the paintings and my diplomas :D they look so nice in my office :):):):)
Ricky's valentine's day flowers still lasted!! Everyone seriously order from www.proflowers.com! They guarantee flowers last 7 days and it's true! Mine are still beautiful!
I like riding cabs. If I can afford it, I'm going to take cabs home from work once I live in the city - IF I can afford it. I was thinking about Emma Woodhouse on the train back home tonight (weird thoughts ya know?) - thinking how would SHE handle riding crowded trains for long rides? And I realized - heck! She wouldn't take public transporation cause it'd be beneath her! LOL! :D She'd have an apt in manhattan and take a cab home! HAHAHA! ahhh to be rich :)
so anywayz, mummy picked up Kentucky Fried Chicken! So after papa got me from the train station we ate rice and squash curry and KFC! I rushed online to answer emails and I'm going to settle in to bed now.
One of the partners, Ken, told me I could go to court with one of the other associates this Friday or Monday :) So that I wouldn't have to be chained to my desk and could get a feel for what I'd get to do as soon as I'm admitted.
Not that I mind being behind a desk - I like working in the office - I'd rather be in there then running around courts. Agh.
Good night everyone!

06:09 p.m.
I've decided I am going to live in a mansion one day with a gazebo outside and my own gardens and I'm going to have a maid! :D hehehe I spent a little while last night drawing everything in my real diary :) I even drew the gate which as an intricate NR on it (of course it'll have my hubby's last name initials once I'm married instead....hmm...NV...gotta figure out how that'll go)
Our cul de sac and driveway were both BURIED in snow! My dad was still snowplowing at 9am and I had to call into work and leave a voice mail message for one of the partners that I couldn't come in. I'm worried about not being able to come in so soon after I started....GOD I don't want to create a bad impression! I told him on the voice mail how the roads hadn't been ploughed yet where I lived and that my dad was still shoveling....I hope he doesn't think badly of me......by the time things were clear enough to get out it was 11am and the next train was at 11:42 I think and I wouldn't get to Grand central until 1:04 or something and it just didn't seem to make sense to spend money on the train fare only to go to work for like 4 hours and I didn't have any pressing assigments to do today that I couldn't get done tomorrow so Papa and I decided best to stay home.
I'll stay late to 6pm the rest of this week to make up for not being able to come in today and take just half an hour for lunch. That should help me make up time plus I still did work here at home - read and took notes on 2 depositions which took me 2 billable hours worth so yaay :)
I made it out to the mall at 3pm and picked up my diploma! It's framed so beautifully! Papa gave me 2 paintings here from home and I also bought 2 paintings from the prints shop - one is of the ACCOLADE (the one I have at http://www.miakaandtamahome.com/nishi/queen.html ) and the other is this beautiful landscape painting! Both are on canvas and need nice frames but framing would've cost me a fortune and I'll do that once I have at least $2000 in the bank first! I'm going to nail up my Binghamton university and St. John's Law diplomas and also the 2 paintings papa gave me. The other 2 of the accolade and the landscape are for my future apartment.
Spent the morning working hard - ironically I would've worked less at work than I did having to stay home - I helped papa bring in 2 wheelbarrows-full of wood, washed dishes for over an hour, and then swept and mopped all the floors in the house! :) I treated myself to 3 Oreo cookies for all that :D
CALLING PEOPLE WHO ARE RENTING OR HAVE MANHATTAN APARTMENT / APARTMENTS FOR RENT! I need a 1 bedroom or 2 bedroom apartment with a kitchen and a living room area and a full 1 bathroom for $1200 or LESS but if it's in the 1100-1200 range it should include utilities because I really can't afford going much higher than 1200 since I don't know how much utilities will come to. It must be UNDER 93rd and ABOVE Wall Street! East or westside fine. Oh and it's not necessary but a decorative or working fireplace would be nice! As would laundry in the building! :) Please email me if you have something! I have good credit and a dad who's got loads of money who could be my guarantor and I'm now an attorney working in manhattan with a decent salary. Ok thanks. AND I'M FEMALE NON-SMOKING AND NO PETS!!
/end ad :) hey every little bit helps ya know? :)
heheeh :) ok God now it's all in your hands.
In return I promise to be a good girl and I'll give money to charity!
Ailinon thank you!! You're seriously one friend who is ALWAYS an awesome resource! I can't wait to buy that cd! I loved the music in the movie. Crystal I WAS snowed in! When I went outside to get the wood the snow came up to mid-thigh on me! But I am short....hehehe....K-la aren't they cute? :) I can't wait to have the resin built and painted! :) I'm thinking I should try my hand at painting since I've always wished to paint. Seraph you have nothing to worry about! From what I could tell of you, you seem so intelligent and together! You'll do great - I know you will! If I could pass, so can you! :)
Ok I'm off everyone. See you guys later!

08:52 p.m.
Anyone know where I can purchase the Emma movie soundtrack? It's so hard to find it! I spent the day helping my mom with a couple chores and watching the snow fall relentlessly. It was like a blizzard out there at times. Felt so good to be inside all warm and cozy :) Mummy made delicious squash curry with broiled chicken and I treated myself to 6 Oreo cookies :) hehehe :) Spent the evening doing my mom's and my own nails and chatting with her - she and I are so alike - she was counting the numbers of our new house we're building - 571 - to equal the number 13 and I told her to add the 1+3 to be 4 and therefore it was a good number cause she had 4 daughters for children :) I always do that kinda stuff - add up the numbers to see if it's a lucky number of my room door and phone number etc :)
Below are pictures of my new acquisitions (thank you miyu-chan *huggles*):
Neo Queen Serenity and Chibi Moon Gashapon??
Neo Queen Serenity Resin Model
 
I wonder how the trains are running tomorrow and if the office will be closed or what! I think I'll leave a little late after I make sure the office is open and the trains are running well.
I love using Biore Warming Facial Cleanser - that thing keeps my face free from pimples like nothing else can!
Hi again K-la and littleangel *HUGS* to you both!
I feel so nice and relaxed after my shower.....going to eat a snack and go write in my real diary-diary and talk to my ricky and sleep! Oh wait...I didn't iron my clothes for tomorrow or make lunch! ARGH! I'll talk to everyone later this week! It's back to the working grind for me once again!

11:54 p.m.
gosh I'm sleepy and tired! I watched Emma again tonight for like the 89th time and again fell in love with the movie. I wanna one day live in a mansion-like house like the Woodhouse's! When I was 14 I designed my mansion complete with the large garden and horse-riding grounds and stable :) I'm going to try and make that come true one day.
I spent the morning cleaning my room and making salad for my folks and washing dishes. Spent the afternoon reading the newspaper and doing my nails (cut them all off so I can regrow them nice and even) and then finally watched last Thursday's episode of Friends! :) Was so funny :) So glad there'll be a 10th season!
mmm watching Emma again gave me ideas for the furniture and things I want in my apartment and future home. Watching those kinda movies makes me wish I could've lived during a time like that - those dresses, those styles of dancing, the parties, the "society" - it's such a stable form of life...so comforting.....so different from the crazy, uncertain world we live in now.....
I'm trying to find a beautiful hard-cover copy of Emma - especially this one copy my local library has but I can't find it anywhere else! Wonder if I could purchase it from them or give them a brand new copy in return for having theirs.....wonder, wonder, wonder........
It's supposed to snow 1 - 2 FEET tomorrow.....so no apt hunting tomorrow.......my diploma framing should be done tomorrow evening.....hope I can go pick it up from the mall.....
NITHI CAME HOME TONIGHT :) Was so glad to see her :) we spent a while catching up and she's having such fun teaching highschoolers....she's in her senior year at college and gets to actually teach high school kids now :) So proud of her - she's doing something she loves!
Callie I know - to think I've been paying $80/month for their crappy service - I'm going to move UsagiandMamoru.com and MiakaandTamahome.com and every other domain I own to a new host this month which also offers email as part of the hosting package so it'll all be fixed then! :) Seraph hi :) the MPT on the bar exam I thought was SO easy! Just be very very organized and VERY thorough and you can't go wrong! Make sure to read everything twice and stick to what they're asking for - you'll do great :) Hi K-la!! I got ur email! Haven't visited your site yet but shall do so tomorrow or later this weekend! Hope all is well with you! :) I'm so happy to meet you! Rufus thank you! Nice to meet you too! *HUGS* Mind yes I got ur email and emailed you back! I love the Aragorn and Arwen picture u sent! :) LittleAngel hi there :) I didn't get your email but I know of the site you linked :) They don't really have anything I want but thank you for thinking of me and sharing! *HUG* do you collecting SM goods too? Wizard thank you :) I responded to your email :) Suni awwww *HUG* please DO keep in touch! *HUG* How could I forget you? :) And HeartFairy thank you :) Happy belated V-day to you too! :)
I have 2 brand new Neo Queen Serenity acquirances! (is that a word?) The Neo Queen Serenity Gashapon (also came as a set with a Chibi Moon gashapon) and a Neo Queen Serenity 1/6 Resin Model which I'll be paying someone to assemble and paint for me.
Since my MT.com domain's host servers seem to be down now, I'll post the pictures tomorrow.
Night for now everyone.

11:26 p.m.
I received 2 more entries for the UM.com contest - both of which aren't really worth mentioning - but both are late and I gave permission to only a couple people that I'd wait till Tuesday for entries because of the snow and the holiday. It really comes down to deciding between:
- the 8" neo queen statue
- the selenity and endymion painting on wood
- the selenity and endymion engravement on a mirror
- the painted wine glass
- the sailor cosmos stained glass painting
- the water color painting
- the selenity and endymion cross-sitch
those are the entries that I determined took the most money, time, energy and that the owners didn't want to really part with but took the risk for in giving it to me to try and win and the risk they wouldn't get it back.
I'll make my final decision on Tuesday night.
I tried to take pics tonight of some of the entries after I got back from the mall but my vid phone kept freezing and windows kept crashing every 3 minutes after it was on. *sigh*
I had uploaded pictures of the cross-stitch I was able to take snaps of a couple weeks ago - I took a snap of the mirror last week but I didn't upload it cause it's on my personal computer which is on a dial up connection using netzero and netzero keeps freezing and kicking me off after 10 minutes. UGH! Below's the cross stitch which SAILOR FIGMENT did.
  
I'll see if I can upload or take any more snaps tomorrow.
I went to the mall tonight and spent so much time trying on clothes! I finally found a pair of black pants that fit me perfectly for $29.50 at New York & Company and also found 2 gorgeous shirts from there too! I now have 2 more outfits at least :)
Did you guys see the moon tonight? At least here under NY skies there was fog around it - that always means we're going to have snow or bad weather within the next 2-3 days.
My 2 favorite things to do at night are sleep and to take long, hot showers. Felt heavenly to take a hot shower tonight.......towel's still wrapped around my hair right now :D
I don't have to go to church tomorrow! HEHEHE :) I can sleep late! I don't really like going to church.....our orthodox services are so long....and I just don't get a lot out of our services or any of it - I'm much more the kind of person who prays with the door shut and talks one on one with God. Also cause I don't agree with many of the church beliefs such as the trinity or mary being mother of God etc etc - anywayz, i'm not gonna rant on doctrines here.
I've acquired a new cel!! It's from when Usagi comes out of the shower and pats her face and then proceeds to weigh herself and gets upset because she's gained a few pounds. I want to hang that up in the bathroom of my apartment once I get an apartment :D
will that look cute or what in my bathroom? :) Gotta get a good frame for it that's air tight so no moisture of anything will get in.
anyway - must get going. Good night everyone. Time to sleep!

11:48 p.m.
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I always loved V-day :) This morning after I got to Grand Central Terminal, I picked up 13 chocolate heart candy boxes and boxes of v-day cards and fillled everything out and left them for each of the 13 people in my office (from other attorneys to staff) and they all loved it :)
BUT in Ken's office - HEHEHE :D I PUT A FAKE COCKROACH IN HIS LAPTOP COMPUTER!!!!! His secretary Gloria was practically in stitches waiting for Ken's reaction! Remember he's the partner in the firm who loves playing practical jokes and he was the one who left the fake throw up on my desk ;) So I HAD to get him back! We waited and waited and finally after I gave up waiting he pops into my office and says I got him good! He really jumped he said when he saw it :D YAAAAYY! BUT THEN he went and used the cockroach on 2 of the other associates and scared the crap outta them :) hahaha the office had a lot of fun today :)
I got praise for the memorandum of law I wrote about employer's liability when an employee says he was being harassed by co-workers while employed but never reported it to the supervisor. In a phone conference the attorney from maryland said I could come to Springfield :) hahaha
GUESS WHAT!!!!! In addition to the bear dressed as a penguin - ricky and I named him "Pengy Boo", Rick sent me a dozen red roses and a heart shaped velvet box filled with expensive chocolates! These were ordered from pro-flowers.com! And they ARRIVED AT MY WORK :D
They brightened up my office so much! He made my VDAY and I love him for it :) But for some odd reason, he hasn't been picking up the phone for the past hour+.........
I saw another apartment tonight - was PERFECT ALMOST except the bedroom had NO CLOSET and it was "attic-like" with slanted walls - so the room was again - SMALL *sigh* and the area was in Wall Street and so quiet at night - I like more activity....
I swear....WHEN will I find an apt?
OH!!!! I GOT MY FIRST PAYCHECK!!!!!!!!!!! $763!!!! DO you know how much went to FICA and Federal Witholdind???? $86 to the first and $123 to the second! And mummy and papa said when I get my normal bi-weekly checks there'll be much more taken out! WHAT THE HECK! I HATE TAXES! Stop taxing me on my income so much and then making me pay tax for residence and on sales and everything! GRRR
I got 2 more entries for the Valentine's day contest :) A gorgeous Serenity and Endymion painting on WOOD!!! ACTUAL TREE ROUND WOOD by Blair! And a neo queen serenity drawing on I think netting? I think the WOOD one will be getting a prize!
I think I'll send everyone who didn't win a major prize, a consolation gift if I can find something.
FINALLY - Ricky's on the phone, so I'm going to go talk to him and enjoy the last few minutes of V-day :)

10:03 p.m.
wow! I think I just may have gotten my first prize entry in the UsagiandMamoru.com Valentine's Contest and probably also my 2nd and 3rd prize but I won't make any determinations just yet - I'll decide on Tuesday in case anything arrives late with the crazy snow and weather we're supposed to be getting.
Today - I got an entry that blew me away! It's an actual sculpture of Neo Queen Serenity that was in the Sailor Moon anime - the "statue" that Prince Demando/Diamond would pull up and stare at? She's kneeling with her chin on her hands. The artist said she'd been working on it since this past summer and when I announced this contest, it was the perfect entry. It's about 8 inches tall and almost a perfect replica save that Serenity's wings/ribbon things aren't even. I can't believe this woman Gladys MADE this! This sculpture....GOD...she wrote how she looked through my collection and saw how I wanted resin models of Serenity and dolls etc and she also said even if she didn't win that this was my belated birthday present!!! How sweet is she???? I just stared at this thing for a full 10 minutes I think..........I think I might commission her to make me more sculptures.........
I had been worried when I announced this contest and received a couple pen and color pencil fan arts that I wouldn't receive anything worthy of $250 worth but now I can safely say I have received entries worth giving all my prizes away, especially the $100 gift certificate!
I'll try to take a video phone snap of everything this on Saturday or Sunday - my vid phone is acting up though - I've only been able to take pics of 2 of the entries so far I think.
I also received this lovely WINE GLASS by this girl Erika which had a painting all over it in blue with Serenity and Endymion (no faces though) and the moon palace and star locket painted on it - although the painting isn't detailed or particularly remarkable the overall creation is GORGEOUS I think! This one is going to get a prize probably!
I also received this Sailor Cosmos stained glass portrait by I forget who - can't believe she painted and DID this - stained glass! I think this person will get a prize too........also received that mirror by Blair I believe with Serenity and Endymion engraved into it.....and also received a beautiful water color painting of Serenity and Endymion from Vanessa - although I wish she had framed it. Also had that cross-stitch of serenity and endymion Sailor Figment did - she intended that as my birthday present or bar exam passing present too - I wanna send her something as well.
I want everyone who spent a good deal of time, energy, and their own money and had to give up something precious - to get something back.
I made this contest specifically under the terms that I couldn't send anything back because not only couldn't I afford it and I simply don't have time but also because I didn't want to just GIVE AWAY $250 worth and have nothing to show for it and wind up giving someone all that money and prizes AND mail everyone's things back. I'd be such a loser then and wouldn't do any contests.
Next year maybe I'll give away $1000 - who knows what kind of creations people would come up with then for THAT much money! HAH $1000! Let's pay back and pay down debts first! ;) But seriously....I'm considering it.
As for all these entries - I think I'll keep 4-5 things and the rest will be entered into a raffle at the UsagiandMamoru.com 5th Anniversary Convention I'm hoping to do this summer or September.
Anyway....today at work I had to go to the City Bar Association Library and sit and research there for almost 5 hours!!! HOLY HECK! I wish my firm used Lexis legal research instead of westlaw!
Tomorrow's Valentine's day!!! Ricky sent me this BEAR from 1-800 FLowers.com today! It was supposed to arrive tomorrow but flowers.com ALWAYS SCREWS UP! The bear is dressed up as a penguin! LOL! :) It's so cute :) It's sitting on my desk at work :)
I need to sleep now so good night everyone! Rence-channnnn I will pray tonight that the hottest, sweetest, and sexiest man appears and makes wild, passionate love to you!!!! HAHAHA :D *HUGGGGGGGGGG* Caroline I MISS YOU! We need to catch up soon! VDV hi there :) don't worry about the way you leave messages :) It's nice to meet you! :)
ok I gotta wake up at 6am so MUST GO! NIGHT EVERYONE!!!

10:10 p.m.
This is just a quick entry to respond to friends :) I'm eating a slice of my birthday cake - 2 more slices left and I'm saving one in case Ricky comes on Firday for V-day.
Right after I posted the entry below, one pf the partners, Matt, came and gave me a WHOLE lot of work to do and now the work is coming :) I have 3 files now! And it's all interesting stuff too! :)
2 of the associates took me out to lunch today and I got to know them better. They took me to this Chez Laurence? French place where I had this sandwhich for $7.95 but LORD WAS IT YUUMMY!!!!!!! It was this turkey with bacon and lettuce and tomato on a toasted croissant and I dunno what they did but it tasted amazing!
I'm arranging appts to see apartments this Saturday and Wednesday. Gosh I hope I find something because my family (and I if I get vacation time) may be going to India for 10 days from May 19/20 - 30th for one of my cousin's wedding! I'll finally get to see my cousins I love so much but haven't seen since 1998!
So tired...so very tired.......hope I can actually sleep tonight - I wonder if it's the caffeine in Lemon Lipton Iced Tea or the Chocolate birthday cake that might be affecting my sleep? Caffeine in those things never bothered me before....I haven't been getting full sleep at all.......funny but I got better sleep when I went to bed at 2 or 3am and woke up at 11am or noon ;)

Miyu-channnnnnnnn how can you be so optimistic? (love you for it though!)

09:57 a.m.
yeesh I can't believe I couldn't blog for so long! I just got into the office - I'm usually one of the only attorneys who come in this early and right now in since I don't have a lot of work, I can putter around online :D hehehe better enjoy this while it lasts!
I alays carried along a notepad with me to write on while on the train or when bored so I wrote my blog there - I'll record here what I wrote...
Monday, Feb 10th 2003 - 7:40 a.m.
The train that picked us up today was an old rickety thing that shook a lot and the shaking shook my cheeks and inner organs! I didn't like it!! Papa and mummy were so great! Both gave me big hugs and wished me so many blessings and luck for my first day - I'm sitting here with jiggling cheeks and feeling so loved. Even though I got off the phone with Ricky last night around 10:30 still took me forever to fall asleep and I still woke up at 5am! SLEEP IS SO IMPORTANT TO ME!! I love to sleep so when I don't get a good night's sleep I'm not a happy camper! :)
9:15A.M.
OH MY GOD! I HAVE AN OFFICE! It's my own little office! My own desk, stapler, tape, phone, rolodex and a dictaphone I'll never use :D I wanna put up these paintings papa has at home if he doesn't want them!
THINGS FOR NEW OFFICE
- wall mirror
- tall potted treet/plant (fake? real?)
- diploma
- license when I get it
- 2 paintings
- vase with flowers
- pictures of papa & mummy, me and my sisters, and me and ricky
- advil, bandaids, lotion, tissue box, purel anti-bacteria hand gel, candy/gum
- a small little table
- desk hook thingies to hang files from in the drawers
Tuesday Feb 11, 2003 7:05 p.m.
I BOUGHT BOOTS for A LOAD OF MONEY on my lunch break today. Italian boots...in the store the lady gave me these foot sole thingies to wear since the balls of my feet always hurt after walking in anything heeled and at first I thought I'd foun the cure to my shoe probs but after walking everywhere in Soho to look at this apartment, I realized I needed like 10 footsole thingies to cure my feet aches!
the apartment was nice except...there's no sink (the girl uses the kitchen sink as her bathroom sink..YUCK) and my bedroom is tiny with an 8ft HIGH bed! I don't want to climb stairs to get to my bed nor take the chance of it one day falling ;) It's been a LONG DAY and I can't wait to get home and eat something!
TODAY - WEDNESDAY
Reading the messages you guys left me here made me feel so good! You have no idea. It really cheered me up during these past couple long days. I finished drafting my first complaint for this firm yesterday.
As for apartment hunting...ga-HOD it is SO HARD..I thought it'd get better but honestly...*sigh* I have a couple places to look at this Monday (which I get off cause it's a holiday - cool huh?) and I hope one of them pans out.
The people at this firm are SO WONDERFUL! The 2 partners Matt and Ken are jokers - ESPECIALLY KEN! He left me a welcome present yesterday morning - a FAKE THROW UP thing!! And he rearranged my whole desk - I was like - who the heck came into my office and did this! And one of the secretarys told me it's Ken! He's a practical joker and that's his way of welcoming me :)
I told him I'd get him back! This friday is Valentine's Day so I'm getting everyone in the office a little valentine's day card with candy or chocolate inside. But in Ken's, in addition to that, I'm going to get a fake "jump out spider" - maybe 4 or 5 - so when he opens it, they jump out at him :D hehehehe
It's almost 10am and I better get going - write later when I get a chance :)
I'll reply to everyone's messages tonight!

WHEW WHAT A DAY!!!!!!!!! I got up at 11am and after puttering online, went with mummy and got 3 wheelbarrows-full of wood and managed to somehow bend my wrist awkwardly and had to wear an ACE bandage for a while (wrist is fine now) and then I washed dishes, cut up, washed and chopped cauliflower and broccoli and then vacuumed the whole house and cleaned my entire bathroom and bedroom. FINALLY I got to eat yummy food :) and take a relaxing shower :)
I got my new Marmalade Boy 5 in the mail today and I LOVE YUU AND MIKI :D
Worrisome news....I've had this weird...pimple like bump on my lower back since this past summer.......it just appeared one day and it's never gone away....a medium-hard bump...doesn't move.....I showed it to mummy back in November I think and she looked at it again today and she says she thinks it's bigger.........
I'll have to go to a dermatologist to find out what it is after March 10th when my insurance kicks in.......
God.....me...perpetual worrywart that I am started imagining malignant stuff.......I hope the pimple-thing is nothing bad...it scares me...........I'm a real hypochondriac.........
I didn't think it got bigger...maybe mummy's wrong.....
*thinking non-cancer related thoughts*
SO ANYWAY.......yeah.....um.......hmm....
I hope it's benign whatever it is........
please be nothing....
please
ok I'm gonna go cause I can't think of anything else. I hope you guys are all well! *HUG*

12:50 a.m.
WHEW! Took me almost 3 hours but I finished re-doing Nishi Selenity's Treasures - Collection Page with a new layout and adding every single darn thing I won in the past couple months!
It snowed about 4-5 inches here! Was so beautiful watching it fall and when I went outside to help Papa shovel it wasn't so cold :) Just right :)
I did my first lawyer-like job today! For the new church my parish is building, Papa found a great property and he asked me to write up the letters to present to our Priest. While writing it, he told me how there was some covenant (an agreement between seller and buyer) from way back that said that the property had to be used as only a dwelling. Well, the lawyer in me knew what to do - I called up the original 1904 grantor, Manhattan Life Insurance Company, and spoke to a guy in Houston about whether the covenant ran with the sale of the land and will be hearing back from him. I'm presenting the legal aspects of the property purchase to the general body after church on sunday.
whew I'm tired...and hungry.......
Lady, Crystal, Baseer, Yumiko thank you all so much! Crystal don't worry about being late :) *HUGS* LADY!! :) BASEER happy v-day to you too! And thank you Yumiko! Miyu-chan it is sweet huh? But don't u worry - he gives me MULTIPLE HEADACHES to make up for all the niceness too ;) Danielle are not! are not! :P~~~~~~~~ :)
See you guys tomorrow :) I can't type anymore after 3 hours of constant typing. WHEW!

I turned 26 today :) Happy birthday to me :)
Thursday, February 6, 2003
10:36 p.m.
awwww you guys!!! you have no idea how nice it feels to see all your warm messages! *HUG* I'll talk about you all in a minute!
Last night.....at midnight I prayed to God for a happy and properous new year - one with an apartment and at 12:04 Ricky called and do you know what he did? He played Happy Birthday on his GUITAR for me :) It was sooo cute and romantic and I loved it :) Then he played this Pearl Jam song - also beautiful :) He'll be really good at guitar one day!
I woke up this morning and got a big hug from mummy and after breakfast, we went and got 4-5 wheelbarrows-full of wood for the woodburning stove/fireplace thing and finally I went and got ready for my first day of apartment hunting. (already I was like - jeez - I'm already spending my birthday working hard ;) what can THAT mean about the new year? ;)
I can't believe I spent my birthday traipsing around Manhattan and now my legs are so achy!
I spent almost 2 hours+ viewing disgustingly small and ugly neighborhoods from 99th street to 103rd - the first place and neighborhood I saw WAS SO AWFUL I WANTED TO HEAD BACK HOME! I don't like Harlem at ALL! The "apartment" was like a cramped room!!! Who pays almost 1000-1200 for cramped rooms like this? THEY'RE CRAZY!
Word of advice to apartment hunters in Manhattan - stick to 96th street and LOWER on either side of manhattan!
After a couple more disappointments I had pizza at this nice italian pizza restaurant, I headed on back to the train station to see one more apartment before going to the office to fill out paperwork. Again - major disappointment - apartment was a cramped thing and the BATHROOM was out in the HALLWAY of the building - UH NO THANKS.
I met this one really nice lady named Rose who gave me great advice on apartment hunting - she was such a doll - in addition to her husband, she owns 2 dogs, 1 cat, and 1 parakeet. You meet such interesting people in the city :)
So 1 more disappointment later, I went to the office - I'm getting to know Manhattan very well now - traveling around no problem now :) - everybody at the office was so nice to me :) It's going to be good working there - they all have work for me - I get to work on a summons, complaint, summary judgment motion, and an employment case - WHOOPPEEE ;)
It's supposed to snow 6-7 inches all over the city tomorrow so I can't see any apartments tomorrow.
I FINALLY got the 5:59 train at Grand Central to New Rochelle where my parents were picking me up after checking out the progress on the home we're building there - and when Papa got me, in the car he told me he might be able to help me BUY an apartment - like a CO-OP!
How cool would that be? And when I get ready to sell, it would earn me a great profit.
We'll see on that :)
We came home and I used this foot-bath-spa-thingie on my feet and it helped relax them a lot - it had a massage-thing and all these bubbles :) HEHEHE
Did you guys see Friends tonight? I loved the coat Rachel was wearing! Dangit I wish I was tall!
I ate mummy's AMAZING shrimp curry and then mummy and papa got the cake out and we cut it and took pictures and it was nice :) Wished my sisters coulda been there but they called so it was good :)
Although it was a very exhausting day, it was a nice birthday :)
I think about it this way - on the day I was born - I was working pretty darn hard to get out of the womb - so it was really the next day that I got to rest and relax - right? :)
So I'll rest tomorrow :)
First day of my new cellphone and I think I already used maybe half an hour of daytime minutes. *SOB*
NOW to my friends!!!!!!!!! - the one thing that makes life worth living and so enjoyable are the people you share it with. My dear friends and the many readers of this journal that I've come to know and become friends with........you guys really add joy to my life and for that I am so greatful. Thank you. *HUG* :)
In no particular order, you are: Of course my ricky :) , Sarah Beth, Adrianne, Miyu-chan/Susan, Caroline, Winie, Lisa, Lydia, Janeen, Rebecca, Danielle, Rence, Reena, Aisha, Ailinon, Callie, Leeza, Crystal, Lady, Jeremy, RameoG, Eowyn, Tweety, Lana, Suni, Seraph, ShaRukh, Audrey........and to those who never read this journal but are still people I'll care about forever.......Carrie, Esther, Sashi, Nitz, Mahima, my cousins everywhere, Sunil, Ingrid, Adam, Kim, Neil and God knows who I'm forgetting but don't think it's intentional!
and even ANON who has just started leaving messages - I figured out who you are :) I typed in that phrase you put on the board and found you worked for Deloitte Consulting before :) Always great to meet a fellow female indian :) thank you *HUG*
again, thanks you guys for bringing so much of yourself into my life.
I love my friends and family so much.
I pray I have a beautiful 2003 and that my 26th year is one filled with blessings and lots of cheap manga like Ailinon said :) and Danielle! I am NOT old and stuff! *kicks ur rotten a$$ :D* hehehe :)
