More Research ...
.. cause I am bored at work =P While talking to Carina, she brought up booking hotels before the trip and I remember hearing (probably from Tida) that it’s best, not to mention cheapest, to stay at hostels.  I mean we’ll basically be in our rooms only to sleep and shower .. so we don’t need anything too fancy and/or expensive.  Here are some links for booking hostels: Hostels...

Europe Part 2
Just thought I’d bump this up from the previous entry (that included all the research): adhd Personally, I’m deciding between:  Paris, France (in addition to all the obvious reasons, Before Sunset was filmed there!); Budapest, Hungary (suddenly interested me tonight, apparently has the most shopping centres in Europe lol), and somewhere in Italy (Florence? Venice?).  edit ::...

Let the Europe planning begin!
We’ve been talking about our whole 4-cities-in-2-weeks Europe trip basically since we got back from Myrtle Beach.  And like tourettes already pointed out, if it took us 6 months to plan a trip to South Carolina .. we’re going to need a lot more time for Europe.  (And yes, I know - I still need to get my passport.)  So I figured I’d open up the conversation and planning on our...

BOYCOTT JUICY COUTURE! YOU’LL LOSE OUT ON MONEY...
I want to share with everyone my recent experience with Juicy Couture.  Considering that they are a sub-company of Neiman Marcus, I believed that they were a company that would care about their customer’s satisfaction and wanted to make sure that their customers are happy and treated with respect.   However, after dealing with their Customer Service Center several times and being charged...

Summer Mini Reunion
at noodle gourmet It’s been a busy, stressful, uneventful at times, crazy yet fun summer (at least for me). And not to get all mushy, but the one thing that was definitely missing — our theedorks hangouts. Can you believe that we were all together only one day this whole summer? But .. it was a very fun day. Part 1. Loren, Tida and I drove to Upper Montclair for lunch at Cuban...
