My dad just came back from Taiwan and got me a new Swatch. It's a very flat watch. And kind of bright. Almost flourescently bright. I like it.

for xmas a few years ago my dad bought me a tag heuer. i had no idea how expensive those things are. if i did i woulda smacked him. i wear it lots though. i also have a huge, green ppg watch that has a digi-cartoon and talks. and a blue one with bubbles on the front. it flips open and is digital. and i have a rugtats one with tommy squirting a milk bottle.

why does knowing the time always make you feel better somehow?

i constantly look at the time on my wrist, cel, car, comp scren..
i guess cuz even tho u cant control time, knowing what is gives you a better perspective on when you want to do things and how much time you have to do it..it doesnt organize you but kinda acts like a catalyst?

it gives us a sense of control over our own lives/destinies and existence.

I got a Baby-G, but I ordered it off the internet because I couldn't find a retailer anywhere near me. When it got here it was this ugly pee yellow/green color. I do like the watches though. I just made a big mistake by ordering it over the internet. It's called "Witchy" It tells your fortune and has all these little animals dancing around on the display. Too bad it's still in a box in my closet...mom wouldn't let me return it. damn.

Anyone wanna buy it?? lol What I meant is that its a very nice, soft yellowish-green color. yeah, nevermind.

i saw that watch on ashford the other day...

it's the kind of watch you gotta see in person... just to make sure it looks right on you.

it's classified as an "oversized watch"... shoot-- what if it's like 4 inches thick!
