Eh?

So this past week I've fallen ill. Not so much as my sister was. but ill nonetheless. At this moment I'm sitting at the kitchen table, my head titled to the side, with a cotton ball in my right ear. You see I've been having a problem hearing, and it popped up after my sore throat and everything else appeared. I didn't really think anything of it, but maybe i should've. I'm not sure this medicine will help, its Ear ache relief.

It got really hard to hear anything in class especially when my intermediate teacher has an accent. Boy was that hard and kinda boring i might add.

Tonight's menu: Mole (BLAH), soup for me.

She's a Maniac...a maniac

As anyone does when your late to work, school, or any other kind of event, you speed on the road. And that is the case with my older sister, Jessica. I swear that's how I'm gonna die, in a car accident. Yesterday was bad. Of course she was speeding but then all of a sudden the traffic on the expressway came to a stop. Scary, i know. Imagine being in the passenger seat feeling like you can't do anything. Just hold your breath and wait for it to end. I know my expressions get on her nerves, but hey i see the same the expressions on her face when I'm driving. but usually she is to busy to pay attention because she is texting on her iPhone. Even when she is the one driving. As i said in the title "MANIAC". It kinda reminds me of that song "Maniac" by Michael Sembello

"She's a maniac, maniac on the floor

And she's dancing like she's never danced before"

Rumbly in my tummy

My older sister Jessica had been sick for.....hmmmm....about a week and a half. And I hadn't caught the sickness, thank goodness because i just started school yesterday. However this morning i was going to go the the rec center since i have this HUGE break (5 hours!). Things did happen the way they should have. I woke up feeling sick, my throat hurting and my stomach feeling like it was boiling. 3 1/2 hours later i still feel the same, my voice going in and out. Its getting hard to concentrate.

This is where i would blame Jessica. But in reality it really isn't her fault. Because i had woken up once during the week with a sore throat. and did i take anything? No of course not. My first mistake.

However, my appetite hasn't gone away. I'm still hungry.

I'm a weird kind of sick. Usually people are so sick that they can't even move. You don't usually see me doing that. I'm an active sick person. But sick after all.

Taking medicine tonight. If i can remember.

Easy as 1, 2, 3

Think. Process. Got it.

Wish it were that easy. If anything were that easy then what would be the fun to anything. Having fulfilled a challenge is worth it all, don't cha think???? Those messages keep playing in my mind. What to do What to do.... Do i risk a great friendship just to have a relationship? But the truth is, i never really thought i needed a guy to be happy. Its true that i had my moments, but after a long time processing it, i realized i could be just as happy being independent. I wasn't looking for anything when we started texting. He was always my friend. But like everything in life, it progressed to feel a little more. Can you see my dilemma?
No?
What if things end bad? But really how could they? We both have the personality of good, honest people. AGH! all the possibilities.
So many things in common, yet so different. Isn't that usually what people want? Someone they can enjoy the things they love but also learn new things?
Yes.
All i can do right now is think. So that's what I'll do.

Think. Think. Think. Think. Process. Process. Got it.

I hope.

Tale as old as time.....

Ok so I'm pretty obsessed with "Beauty & the Beast." Why? I'm not sure. I like the moral of the story, that beauty is within. Over the years I've collected about the movie.

The BEAST doll i bought December 2009. I use to have one, but i suppose my mother gave it away. So i searched for it and found one. For under $10!!!!


I received the "Enchanted Castle" as a birthday gift. Its also a musical box, that of course plays "Tale as old as time..." (also known as "Beauty and the Beast"). And lights up with just a flip of a switch.


As a Christmas gift, i received the "Belle" figurine. With a scene at the bottom of her dress.


AND OMG! Donna High School put on a play, of...guess what! Beauty and the Beast! Yeah. Which starred an old high school buddy Julio Navarro as the BEAST. It was good, still....i wished i could have seen it on Broadway. You never know, things just happen. :D

I was testing my watercolors. However after the finished product, i come to realize that i liked it better when it was just in pencil. Oh well. I'VE NEVER WORKED WITH WATERCOLORS!!! Sue me! LOL

Washington, D.C.

In November 2009 I applied for a Financial Auditor Student Undergraduate Internship. Today, I learned that I didn't get accepted into the Internship. I was/am totally bummed about it. I really wanted to move to the Capital. I guess I have to find other ways to get out of the Valley. My dad said "their loss," but is it really. Maybe i did something. I know i don't have any work experience but how can i get work experience when no will give me a job because i don't have work experience. This totally BLOWS!!

Keep moving forward, right?

Avatar & Did you hear about the Morgans?

January 1, 2010. Went to see the movie "Avatar"

of course in 3D.

James Cameron really out did himself. It was AWESOME!!! Great way to start off the new year with an amazing movie. Bubba wasn't too thrilled about going late at night and wearing glasses. But to our surprise he stayed awake throughout the whole movie. (I kept checking) And plus since Christmas i had been saying i wanted to watch it, and all he could say was that the actress in the movie said it was a "chick flick," which made him not want to watch it. I admit that it has some chick-flick qualities but alot of action and science fiction. I still say she meant to say its an action movie that girls will like. But like i said it was an awesome movie, i wouldn't mind watching it again.

January 2, 2010. The whole family (Tio Pete & Tia Anna, Annie, Victoria, Robert, Tio Gilbert & Tia Cira, Anthony, Jessica, Bubba, and myself) went to see "Did you hear about the Morgans?"

It was an OK movie, one that i probably wouldn't want to watch again. Kinda like "All about Steve" a one time movie. There isn't much to say about this movie.

But the whole family experience was a great one. Played PICTIONARY. Jess, Tia Anna, and I totally won! It wasn't expected.

Washington Update: Still "reviewing applications"

Renaming

Ok in.........I think August we received a surprise visit from a stray that wondered into our yard. I fell head over heals in LOVE with him. He was so adorable!! I decided to keep him, so i was up to 2 dogs and 1 small cat. We dubbed him "Odie," but as time went by he started to get big from both height and weight. My sister nicknamed him "Waddles-alot."

Can you see the folds in his neck???

And on one visit from my cousins to play Guitar Hero is when we discovered his new name when my younger cousin, Victoria, started calling him "Pudge." The name fit so well. So today I went to PETSMART and got him a new tag that says "Pudge".

New Years Eve

Usually every holiday is spent with me and my cousins locked in their room playing "ROCKBAND" (or this year "GUITAR HERO"). And the adults in the living room watching t.v. and falling asleep. This year was particularly different, my Tia Anna called me around 9:20 in the morning, asking what the menu was going to look like, and during that conversation she mentioned playing games, like Pictionary, TABOO, and maybe MAD-GAB. So i intentionally left my PS3 and Guitar Hero here at home. And BOY am i glad i did. This New Years was the BEST!!! We ended up, of course, helping out in the kitchen. But once we got away we headed to the living room the it got a little more exciting. Making fun of the "Newbie," it was HIGH-LA-RI-OUS!!!! Dinner time, and by that time my Tio Gilbert, my cousin Anthony and his cousin Gilbert joined us. Dinner was delicious especially the potato salad! (YUM!) During dinner we were discussing what we should do after. It was decided, we were gonna play TABOO. Now to figure out the teams. Of course me and Jess would be on the same team, and Victoria, Annie, and the "Newbie" would be on another. We were short one. Anthony and Gilbert didn't want to play. So we asked my cousin Robert. And Shockingly he wanted to play, which was a big first because he usually passes up on the offer. It was totally FUN! and we whipped them big time! But of course what goes up must come down (not even referring to gravity). We ended up losing at Pictionary :(. But it was all in good fun :D. Then it was time to wait for midnight. But the night went way better than i thought it was. The best New Years Eve to this day.
