LA Traffic from Westside to Downtown LA
As I take my daily drive from the Westside to Downtown LA, I'm faced with the FACT that this is how traffic will be in LA (see photo).
With my recent change of employment, my drive has changed. I (subconsciously ) would like to believe that driving to Downtown LA from the Westside is better than driving to Santa Monica
From my house in LA to Santa Monica, it used to take me about 20 minutes (sidestreet) to 45 minutes (freeway). I won't forget to mention that I lived 5.5 miles from Santa Monica. It's approximately 13 miles from the Westside to Downtown. It usually takes me about 25 - 40 minutes.
How could this be? Well, just take a look at the picture.

blogger beta
i've decided to blog again... blogging takes time and dedication. TIME is something i don't have considering my busy work schedule. i'm thankful i'm done with school. i'm contemplating on either getting my masters or another bachelors in a different field.
blogger beta is in its initial stage. i have to decide to either create a new blog or just wait till this one converts. i certainly do not want to cut and post all my post.

2006 happy new year!
2006... a brand new year. it is now the middle of january and it seemed like time just went by. i can still remember the new year where the hubby and i (with spenser the lab) were all sitting in the living room watching the countdown.
this year, the hubby and i are planning a trip to europe. i wanted to travel a little bit because we've decided that after being married for two years, it would be time to add a baby to our family unit.
the hubby agreed! we've talked about it for awhile now and it seemed like we're ready. the question now is when....
another goal i have this year is to lose weight. i've gained a considerable amount of weight. it seemed like a lifetime ago that i was in the gym 2-3 times a week sweating it out to make sure that i can wear all my size 4/5 clothes....

it's been awhile....
it's been awhile since i last posted to this blog. i was with some friends and a few noted how they used to read my blog all the time. what happened? hhhhmmmm.... so i logged in and noticed that my header is gone!
the header should be like this photo but on a bigger scale... i have to figure out my html coding.... it's been awhile.
hopefully, i can fix it by this weekend. my blog seems so empty without my header.

Lovematch
Taurus and Cancer
When Taurus and Cancer come together in a love affair, it's usually a very good combination. They are two positions apart within the Zodiac, and such Signs tend to share karmic ties and a deep mutual understanding. These particular two Signs have much in common: Both prize security in a love relationship above almost all else; both tend to be nurturers (Cancer is emotionally nurturing while Taurus loves to spoil their lover with sensual delights, gifts and good, rich meals). They're both quite domestic and love a quiet night spent at home with their sweetie.
The Taurus-Cancer partnership tends to be a happy one due to this mutual enjoyment of the security and comfort of home. They love a solid home base, a strong relationship, nice possessions, good food: all the comforts of domestic life. Theirs is often the ideal family that people of other Signs strive for, with strong ties between them and a relationship that is family-oriented rather than toward the outside world. Their only major problems arise when Taurus insists on having its own way and Cancer responds by sulking. Taurus must understand Cancer's emotional sensitivity, and Cancer needs rely on open, honest communication than on emotional blackmail.
Taurus is ruled by Venus (Love) and Cancer is ruled by the Moon (Emotions). Both of these celestial bodies vibrate with feminine energy. Cancer often keeps emotions bottled up and simmering inside, which can lead to occasional boil-overs. Thus, Cancer is attracted to Taurus's open, honest, unafraid nature. As the Moon controls the tides of the Earth, quietly affecting all life, so does Cancer, manipulating behind the scenes. Cancer tends to be sentimental, and both partners prefer to enjoy each other rather than socializing with large groups.
Taurus is an Earth Sign and Cancer is a Water Sign. Water and Earth are compatible as tangible, physical entities. As a Water Sign, Cancer is born to nurture an Earth Sign like Taurus the way rain nurtures Earth and helps crops grow. In turn, Taurus tends to have a more stable view of life than does Cancer and is less prone to emotional turmoil; therefore, Taurus can help Cancer stabilize their tumultuous feelings. Both Signs must be careful in this relationship, however: Taurus may tire of Cancer's mood swings, and Cancer may in turn feel that Taurus is insensitive to their needs.
Taurus is a Fixed Sign and Cancer is a Cardinal Sign. Taurus has Fixed habits; they won't change an opinion once it's formed. This can provide Cancer with an emotional rock, as Taurus is entirely dedicated to the relationship. In turn, Cancer can bring new inspiration to the relationship and start new projects that Taurus will enjoy taking over later.
What's the best aspect of the Taurus-Cancer relationships? The steady, reliable team they make. Both Signs are dependable and nurturing, strongly oriented toward domestic life together. A mutual love of home and security makes theirs an ideal long-term, family relationship.
