Well, I feel so terrible for dragging my friends to see John Mayer on Wednesday night. We waited to get into the venue for about 2 hours. Then we waite about another hour before his opening act came on stage. It sucked so much. As much as I love John and his guitar playing skills, I know that I will not be attending anymore of his blues concerts. It’s just too much time commitment and he only sang one of his own songs. I guess I should be happy that he even sang a song from his CD even if it was “Come Back To Bed”.

I have a question for you guy readers (actually I only know of one male reader). Is the bathroom line the place to pick up girls? I have had many encounters with guys while waiting to use the bathroom or even just waiting for my friends near the bathroom. It seems very strange that guys will try to hit on me there. I’ve just noticed that’s where most guys will approach me. Strange isn’t it?

As for the earthquake/tsunami tragedy in South East Asia, I saw some footage on CNN and it really breaks my heart to see all these people left with nothing. It completely blows my mind to know a natural disaster can take away so many lives. The last time I saw the count of the dead, it was 114,000. That is unbelievable! I definitely am going to donate money to one of the emergency funds. I even convinced my little sister to donate $5 to the cause. According to the UNICEF USA site,

$5 can provide an emergency health kit for one person for three months, with medical supplies and drugs to cover basic health needs.

$87 can provide a basic family water kit for ten households, with detergent, soap, wash basin, towels, bucket and water purification tablets.

$188 can provide one “School-in-a-Box” kit containing basic education supplies for 80 children during times of crisis.

Isn’t that kind of amazing? You guys should definitely consider donating anything to one of the funds. During his concert, John Mayer said a pretty meaningful thing, “Doesn’t Mother Nature make a war seem so silly?”

So true.

I’m really excited about doing New Year’s in NYC for the first time in my life. I don’t plan on ringing the New Year at Times Square though. Only crazy people and tourists would do such a thing. As of now, I don’t really know what my friends and I will be doing, but I’m sure it will be fun. This is the first time that my college friends came out to NYC to celebrate. I can’t wait! The only bad thing is that I still don’t have an outfit for tonight. I’m thinking about venturing out to the crowded H&M at Herald Square during my lunch break. Or maybe, we’ll get out early so I can shop.

I hope everyone has a great and safe New Year’s Eve. The next time I’ll be posting will be in 2005!
