Happy New Years!

Can. Not. Believe. We are heading into 2011!

As my younger brother said the other day regarding my age, "the years are fleeting."

I am not doing anything significant to ring in the New Year but I hope to make this a great year.

I know New Years Resolutions die fast, but here are some of my goals:

1. Be more aware of my finances. I am going to put away (into a high interest savings account) at least 10% of the money I make in a week. I am also going to use a planner or diary notebook and staple receipts and write down expenses that I incur on a daily basis.

2. Stop swearing so much. I spew bad words like a pirate.

3. Challenge myself more. I have realized that as ambitious as I feel that I am, I do not set enough goals. This has hindered my growth as a person and I feel like I have not developed as much as I would have liked to over the past year. Goal setting and keeping is a must for 2011.

4. Keep up with my blog and keep my postings varied.

Do you have any New Years Resolutions?

inLike with my Brand New Steamer

I am the type of person who likes practical gifts, things that I can actually use. I actually dislike stuffed animals because they just sit there and collect dust plus you can't be seven years old forever.

This Christmas, one of the most thoughtful gifts I have received is a professional Salton steamer.

Natalie Portman is Engaged, Pregnant and Pushing for an Oscar

Natalie Portman released a statement the other day that she is expecting a child and is now engaged to a ballet dancer, Benjamin Millepied from her movie Black Swan.

Dream High

Dream High is the only upcoming Korean drama that I have been highly anticipating. The drama is going to be similar to Glee but I am assuming it will be a lot more dramatic, and hopefully with a more solid storyline.

Fall inLike not inLove

Bienvenue!

I have decided to start another blog just for giggles. Hopefully, I will consistently post on this blog everyday whereas my old blog went from every two days to once a week and then once a month. Even so, I managed to get about a thousand hits so I guess someone was actually reading my rambles. This also gives me a chance to play around with Photoshop and with coding. I finally got my rotating headers to work after busting my brain for a few hours! This means that whenever you refresh or click on the page banner/header, it will change into a different header. Lame excitement, I know!

Content-wise, this blog will be mostly composed of stuff I like: fashion, kdramas, kpop, celeb gossip, daily news, etc.

As for the blog name-in the moment it worked for me because I thought about all of the phases I go through (exhibit A-juice phases: apple juice to orange juice to peach juice to grape juice back to peach juice and now I'm over drinking the same juice for a month) and how I always say I love a lot of things. Love is overstated, love is fleeting and I really don't know what being inlove is so I figured it would better be inlike with things; to simply like things-my objects of affection. I hope that makes sense? Well, I'm stuck with the name now anyhow.

I hope you will "follow me" or at least use the "Reaction: Really Like Like Dislike" buttons, pretty puh-lease. It will actually give me a reason to stay committed and post on this daily if I know someone out there in the universe is reading this nonsense.

Yours truly,

Monica
