Remember that doctor show?

by @dm1n

No, I’m not talking about Doctor Who, you silly pants out there. I’m talking about that one show with the young doctor interns and their hi-jinx! Zach Braff (If I got the spelling of his name right) and friends teamed up to make a show about young doctors. Oh Scrubs, you are amazing.

It’s not a super serious show, but it does have it’s moments. What makes the show so awesome is the chemistry and relationship between all the characters. You have JD, Turk and Elliot all starting their internship on the same day and trying to make it in the crazy, sleepless internships. JD and Turk are best friends and Turk falls for Carla the nurse while JD falls for Elliot (Elliot being the name of one of the main girls, not to be confused with Elliot from E.T.).

JD has the best daydreams, they’re hilarious. Elliot has a streak of bad luck through out a lot of the series, such as ruining her nursing scrubs and having to get some out of a vending machine, only to find out she has no money. So she has to borrow these creepy sewn up clothes from the Janitor. Who has no name until the very end of the series.

It’s stuff like that that makes the series so awesome. Of course, there was a season after the original cast but it did really badly with fans (including me) and wasn’t nearly as funny.

Let’s hope they do some sort of reunion show, because Scrubs has been one of my favorite shows of all time.


Gordon Ramsay is the man!

by @dm1n

I’ve been on a huge Gordon Ramsay kick lately. If you don’t know who Gordon Ramsay is, you’ve certainly been living under a rock! He’s an incredibly famous chef and restaurantuer (if that’s such a word!). He’s known for cooking television shows such as Hell’s Kitchen, and Kitchen Nightmares.

To be really honest, my fiance and I have been watching a ton of Kitchen Nightmares! It’s been a super fun show. I know a lot of it has to do with the way the American television crew edit the show, but still. It’s incredibly fun.

Kitchen Nightmares is about Gordon Ramsay coming into restaurants that are doing horribly, in the brink of bankruptcy and disaster. Many of the owners of restaurants are in debt, have taken out several restaurant loans and have even put new mortgages on their own houses. Some of them have even sold their houses and cars! That’s absolutely horrifying.

He takes these restaurants and completely flips them around. At the end of the week, it’s up to the owners of the restaurant to see the restaurant through and make it a success. Sometimes they do shut down. But it’s really satisfying when they pull through. :)


After-Christmas Shopping!

by @dm1n

I went to our local mall today and did a ton of shopping with the Christmas gifts friends and relatives gave me. How, you may ask? With gift cards and coupons! I got a ton of them for Christmas and for New Years, and I haven’t had the time to use them up until now. Such is the life of the busy designer and waitress. Oh my!

To the local mall, I went. In search of amazing goodies. I bought a lot of things at Best Buy, but not anything amazing. I wanted a 3DS and an iPad, but I definitely don’t have enough money for that. I’m hoping to get a credit card soon, though! That will help. I went into other stores where I had gift cards and coupons, like to Hot Topic with a gift card and Guess with my guess coupons. I purchased some clothes and cheap bead necklaces. I’m feeling like a fancy pants!

Thanks to everyone who gave me amazing Christmas gifts like the gift cards and coupons. I prefer getting those, than getting a gift that you aren’t sure I’ll like. At least this way I’m able to buy what I want from a particular store or outlet, so it works.


Career paths, yikes!

by @dm1n

So January is here, it’s now 2012. I can’t believe time is flying by so fast! How did you guys spend your Christmas, Hanuka or other holidays? How did you spend your New Years? I spent my New Years at home with my lovely, and my room mates. It was very casual and chill. We had a few drinks, watched some shows, had some nice food. It was all pretty casual and calm. But then we got to thinking about our careers.

What about your career? I was looking on Craigslist and other sites, not to mention looking at newspapers and such for career ideas. I saw entries for Medical Secretaries Jobs, and medical billing and coding people. But I wasn’t sure if that was the path for me. What’s your path? Have you figure it out yet? I haven’t figure out my path yet.

But it’s never too late to find out. You are never too old to try to figure out what you want, and you are never a failure if you decide to change who you are. Changes are good! With that, I’ll say “Peace Out” and enjoy my dinner.
