note to self: don't fall asleep watching collateral....wierd dreams! oh i watched grudge today....and it sucked....either that or i wasn't watching hard enough. hmm. the new profile pic is of my cousins....they're in 7th and 10th grade. My dad is 6 ft tall, how am i still so short!

sum up: i wasn't going to write an entry today because i made 2 yesterday, but i really thought it was necessary...the grudge really really REALLY sucked, and i had some CRAZY dreams last night thanks to collateral, thus i didn't sleep much, so i'm gonna try now. night! (hehe the summation was longer than the entry, hehe) oh and i'm short

Part 3: some person (the only guy that reads this) asked if i'm really watching all movies i say i am....and sad to say i am, but that's cuz heb rents movies for only $1 and when i have time to watch, i have time to write. ok better, now i'm going to watch a new movie (I LOVED shall we dance, contrary to what linds thought) (in the last week i saw: taxi, shall we dance, shark tale, manchurian candidate, delovely, a few more that weren't good enough to remember, and now collateral)

oh and i had 1 drink last night (first time since new years) and i had a guy buy me a drink...wierd....(didn't drink that one, just pretended to while we talked to him).

bottom line 2 for the day: ummm yeah heb! and i was clean and sober for almost 2 months b4 last night.

So Mom and Dad called when they landed from Florida (hence why I was watching their diabetic adorable dog jewel) and said....we decided to come up for the night instead of meeting you 1/2 way tomorrow. (!?!!) ok to set the scene, it's my friend's bday and a bunch of her friends and family bailed on her so i totally couldn't, i was 1/2 way through a workout, still needed a shower, room a mess, no idea what i was wearing to dinner or later to go to northgate, was supposed to go pick her up in 30 min and my parents were on the way....i just wanted to start singing  "I'm super...thanks for asking!" so i dashed around and picked her up, went to dinner, came back met the parents, got dressed up totally hoochie style b/c my friend wanted to for her bday at the bars....mom suggested dad take the picture (AACK) and i left parents, went downtown (long drive, i know) and got back around 3am, then went to church with the parents ate lunch, and they left by 2...seriously i saw them like 4 min! i don't think if the whole thing was more embarrassing or stressful.

ok part 2: the bunny's cage was too small cuz she's way bigger than i thought she'd be...so i had my parents bring up an identical cage (from the store in san antonio i bought this one from: 'wabbitat) and put the 2 next to each other. My baby is living in a double wide and loves it...it's so funny. i think she wears the pants. sad.

 

very bottom line: apparently 3 hrs isn't too close for an impromptu visit by the parents (my plan with living here instead of austin was wrong), even when you're going 'clubbing' for the first time all semester! oh and my bunny is now trailer trash :)

so i love heb's $1 dvd rentals....it's so cheap i rent the stupidest movies....ok so i have a lot of random stuff to say:

i went on a shopping spree to buy all new outfits cuz nothing i have fits (and it's old and i'm sick of it)....it was aweosme! I love sprees! (but feel so guilty for so long)....

i returned a $1.08 tablecloth today at walmart because it was for mom's party and i didn't use it...and i couldn't rationalize keeping it....so i spent 10 min in line (at 8pm....who's in line at 8pm!?)...apparently i value my own time at about $6 an hour...at least i think i'm worth more than minimum wage. oddly enough, i returned $10 of stuff at lowes, and it only took 5 min, so does that mean i thought i was worth $120 an hr??

my little sis (sorority) called me tonight asking for the nickname i gave to one of the sister's boyfriends....and everyone was trying to remember that i called audi (that's his real name..and he does drive an audi!) the 'klingon warrier princess' because he was a stalker at first (i don't remember the connection)...but the point is then they passed me around and everyone talked to me. I love my sisters and I miss them so much! Every girl should join some sorority...well no, i recommend mine....everyone should move to Riddle and join my sorority. they're awesome and it would be so much easier to visit all my friends then! :)

umm final random: i'm dog sitting my parents' dog....she's so polite but sooo cute....and she doesn't even mind the bunny running around any more.

I wrote my grandma (nana) and grandpa (opa) each a letter tonight...oh and my sister (real blood sis). i feel like such a good granddaughter/sister :) Yeah!

Wrap up (haha): life is great! I love having the time to care about the little things. oh and shopping is awesome!

Ok, so school...i mean really! It's like you get no assigments or anything for weeks, and then I actually start to enjoy school....when outta nowhere: BAM! in one week i had 2 homeworks, a midterm, and a quiz....I only have 2 classes! what the heck! I'm just glad they didn't do this a few weeks ago.

i was way too busy then.

End Note: poo on school

So my mom's 50th surprise party was a success!  It was way fun and I didn't realize how much pressure it put me under until the next day I was so tired i'm still in bed sick! anywho....yeah! Oh and i'm watching Jewel ( mom's dog) for the week while they go visit family. She's way cute but the bunny isn't too impressed.

ok final note: i love to sleep. I think being an insomniac might be one of the worst diseases imaginable.

Have you ever thought that somewhere in there world there's a person that's just your opposite, like you in everyway but slight differences? Like, I sometimes feel like when i'm at a low weight, certain people around me have ballooned, and so i think my other in the world must be larger. The reason for that is that the earth can only sustain so much weight, so those dumb decisions you don't even think about maybe aren't you acting but a result of your other acting, like eating out a lot. Or buying stupid stuff.

what i really think is a big one is happiness, there can only be so much great in the world, so when  you're good, maybe your other is good, but when you're great, they're low. i say this because i know some people who are so unbelievably pessimistic, that it's hard to fathom. I mean, the stupidest things cause all of humanity to be depressing to them, when i think it's just funny. I wonder if my other is a complete pessimist because i find so much good in teh world. Like maybe most people are balanced and just fluctuate with their other, but my other and i are polar opposites. who knows....

bottom line: i don't think i'd like my other. they'd have long hair right now....i want long hair. besides they are just too pessemistic to become close to me.

ok i have to confess: it's really bad and it's the first time i've broke this resolution:

yesterday i was late to class, and i parked in the front row! :( I KNOW! I'm so sorry, i'll never do it again, but i went to the gym right after to make up for it.... (this broke rule #4) oh oh but i have worked out everyday for a month now, yes!

umm rule 1: i haven't been working 20 hrs a week at school, but i have been doing them, just from home

rule 2: eating healthier - i only had 1 slice of pizza last night at a study session..

rule 3: not drinking

rule 5: met  new people! :)

I wanna hear from ya'lll.....how are your resolutions going???

Dude, this week has been randomly fun. I know I always say it, but it really was true. My mom had minor-major surgery and I've been taking care of her the last few days. Basically I've done a whole lot of nothing so today I made her a set of leopard print scrubs (she's a nurse)...oh and a bandana for the dog. yeah! I feel accomplished!

Then I met up with Heather and Harpreet and we went to a way fun buffalo wings place with kareoke (sp??) and trivia games. Harpreet was way sweet and paid for my chips (which I definately should not have had) but i resisted ordering the amazing looking chocolate cake! (that's good)

Oh update on the goals: still have not had anything to drink, minus tonight, have been eating healthy, I've worked out everyday since I made the goals....oh and the new people one....yeah i know more people now. yea!

Here's the original sesame street mahna mahna: http://movies.quadratic.net/Muppet_Show_Manamanah.mpeg 

And here's the awesome commercial! http://files.blog-city.com/files/aa/22355/b/DrPepper.wmv

And according to some site: Mahna Mahna was written in 1968 by Piero Umiliani as a soundtrack for the softcore documentary Svezia, Inferno e Paradiso ("Sweden, Hell or Heaven") about sexual activity in Sweden. guhh!

Bottom Line: Mahna Mahna (check the commercial out...every early 80s baby should definately know this!) and now you need the commercial too! (it's only 2 songs...just do it....i'll be quizzing you on the words!) :)

the guy next to me had crazy bad b.o....i don't understand that. middle school it was expected, high school not as prevelent..grad school!?! The man is clearly 30, and hasn't learned how to bathe yet!?!! No wonder why he's an aerospace engineer. my oh my it was bad!

do doo do do mahna mahna... do do do do

do doo do do  do do do do do do do do do do dod od od odo do

:) i love that song. other random thought of the day: one of my friends got white out for her notes in class the other day. white out!? The profs talk so fast i'm writing constantly, so i didn't know if i was more wierded out b/c i was scribbling and she was letting it dry (she was relaxed) or that anyone would care so much about their notes. I take literally 8 pages in an hour...full pages! i can totally read it afterwards, but there's so many numbers, there is definately a few scratch-outs.

my bunny stole a bag of carrots from my book bag and ran off...it was so funny. she tore it open. i would have given them to her. hehe. i'm sure she was proud afterwards.

oh and i made these great chocolate covered cereal things on mon and finished them off today - crazy! That's an entire bag of chocolate chips! mmm...i may have oopsed a little on the diet. yea to tony little's extreme workout!

bottom line: there are wierd smelly people in my class, and i love chocolate! mahna mahna
