! WHAT A DORKY KID I WAS !

! WHAT A DORKY KID I WAS !
 
This weekend I hung out with Andre,
a friend who is helping me build my very own website. He is soooo
awesome! I can’t say enough about how great this guy is - so just go
visit him and say hi

 
So anyway, while we were talking, out of nowhere, he asked me,
"Have you always been this cool?" I was like, yeah totally, I’ve always
been super popular! haha - yeaaaah riiiight! I wish!

 
I admit it. I was probably the biggest dork of them all
when I was younger. No lie! My friends who go waaaaay back with me can
attest to this.

 
REALLY DORKY STUFF I DID 
AND CANNOT EVEN EXPLAIN WHY:
 
1.
On St. Patty’s day, we were required to wear an outfit that had green
on it. Well, I didn’t have anything remotely green on any of my
clothes, so I asked my mom to let me wear this bedtime shirt she had that went down to my knees, which I then paired with my dad’s jeans
that were way too big, but I managed to make stay up by scrunching it
up with a belt. When I went to school that day, this girl Heather in
our class looked at me with both incredulity and disgust saying,
"What the hell is wrong with you?!"

 
2. I read the dictionary religiously after school so that I would win our school spelling bees and I did! Yay! I’m still so proud
 
3. I got a perm that I combed with a pick - haha!
 
4. Because I did not know how to make a sandwich, I used to put Vienna sausages in a hamburger bun. It tasted odd
 
5. In 6th grade, I went swimming in a public pool with my menstrual pad on and before I knew it, it was swimming alongside me. I learned my lesson after that!
 
So yeah, I don’t think I could have gotten any dorkier than
that. The sadder part to all this is I have so many more dorky stories
to tell!

WHO HAS DONE DORKIER THINGS THAN ME?

BEACH WEATHER, HERE I COME !

Tuesday, March 15th, 2005


 
YAY!
 
i am sooooo loving this weather. good-bye snow! good-bye frigid
temperatures that make my toes feel like they’ll fall off. good-bye icy
roads! good-bye thick, heavy winter jackets!

 
helloooooooo sun! helloooooooo green leaves, green grass, green green green everything! hellooooo flowers!
 
helloooooooo light clothing! i feel so freeeeee!
 
whooopieeeeeeee!!!!
 
every year i get so excited around this time. i love driving
around with the windows down, music blasting out of the car, and my
hair flying all over the place. i just love love love it.

 
i can’t wait to explore North Carolina beaches with Matthew.
from what i saw when i went down there, there are plenty of them. they
better get ready for me! keke

 
WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT WARM WEATHER?

LOVE WILL KEEP US TOGETHER

Tuesday, March 15th, 2005

 

 
i was tired of being right-sided up and since i feel all mixed up inside i decided to be upsided-down today.
please, dont e-mail me and tell me i have placed a curse on myself for
being upsided-down or some weird elf info that i have never even
heard of because it won’t make me feel good.

well, matthew is now only four hours or so away from North Carolina. thank you to everyone who wished him luck on his road trip. we both really appreciate it. it is going well and he is finally almost there.
 
in the meantime, i’m feeling a bit lonely.
*sad violin music and a grasshopper skips in the background*
 
it’ll be a while before i get to see him again *crickets
chirping*, - maybe 2 months or so - and although time
moves fast, when two people who are greatly in love (aww, it’s
mushy, i know - shut up ) are
apart, time does not seem to move at all. but then, i should not really
complain because i was the one who convinced him to move in the first
place.

 
my god, i must really love him! lol - it’s nice in a tortured kinda way. i feel like carving his name on one breast,
but then that would not be pretty and i also realize that my other
breast would get jealous and would demand to have a name carved on it
too. coming up with another name would be just ((too stressful)).

 
DO L00000000NG DISTANCE RELATIONSHIPS REALLY WORK?
 
so now that i can say i have a long distance
relationship, the fears that couples who live far apart
experience are starting to creep up on me.

 
matthew always says, "Trust me." and i do. it’s just
sometimes my mind comes up with all these crazy/insane/psychotic
scenarios that it makes me worry about what will happen when we
are apart. no wonder there are alcoholics out there!

 
argh - i think my mind is just being silly.
 
tell me i’m being silly guys.
 

Matthew’s Journey On His Red Dragon

Tuesday, March 8th, 2005

Matthew (my boyfriend) is getting ready for his move to North Carolina. Don’t worry,
I’ll be following closely behind him in a little bit - he is just paving the way
for the both of us

 
The story of the preparation of his move is an interesting one. First,
he and I started looking at rental vans. We found out that it would cost him
this much to rent a moving van:

 

That is a
lot of money! So while over my house this weekend, Matthew was browsing through
Craigslist ads for trucks and he came upon a red old rescue truck. After much
thought, Matthew decided that it would make more sense to buy a truck to bring
down. At least, if he no longer can use it, he can sell it.

 
He went to the seller, checked out the truck, saw that it was in good
condition and bought it right there and then. No hesitation. He was fearless and
it served him well.

 
Total cost =  the truck at $1440 + $139 for 3 months insurance
And the truck is all his to do with as he pleases.
 
Everyone is so proud of him!
 

Thank you, everyone, sooooo much for the allergy advice! I have really
been able to use some of them. You guys are wonderful!

 
Don’t forget to wish Matthew luck and much fun on his journey down to
North Carolina with his best friend, Christian. Also, check out Matthew’s GALLERY -  Thanks!

 

BLOODY SUNDAYS

Sunday, March 6th, 2005

Bloodynose
GRRRRRRR!
My allergies are so bad now that almost every morning i wake up with a bloody nose!

I
take clarinex, but it’ll work for only a couple of hours and then poof,
my nose will get itchy and i *rub* *rub*, then voila - my blood will
run again.

I stole the toilet paper from the bathroom ( i lead
such a glamorous life!)  so that i’d be ready. My blood is pretty
tricky. At times i’ll know when it’s coming out and other times I would
just be inspecting the cracks on the wall or something fun like that
and outta nowhere the blood will gush out of my nose like Niagra Falls.

NoseThen at the end I get this really big glob of blood that’s
clotted. Looks like the kinda blood the comes out during PMS. Girls you
know what I’m talking about - the clotty little balls of blood.

 
Oh how fun!

CAN ANYONE RECOMMEND SOMETHING?

CUTTING YOUR OWN HAIR IS A CRAZY IDEA

Wednesday, March 2nd, 2005

I am such a dork! i know!
I woke up this morning and was so extremely annoyed with my hair that I
went downstairs to the bathroom, took an old pair of scissors (not
meant for hair cutting) and proceeded to cut my hair.


I don’t know what I was thinking! Oh wait, no scratch that - I wasn’t thinking (
gets an ape and smacks my face with it).


My
hair is uneven and all over the place now. I tried to fix it as best
I could. I guess it doesn’t look that bad and mishappen. I guess it’s
blending in with the rest of the hair that I managed not to attack with
the scissor.


Anyway, as my
friend Rhea always says, "It’s only hair. It’ll grow back."


Right on, Rhea!

Peace_out
I did the peace sign so that you would all know that I cut my hair in
peace. No screeching monkeys or hyenas forced me to do it

Wow, now that I look at this bottom pic, it’s amazing how forgiving the camera can be and how it hides all of my uneven hair - YAY! *claps hands madly*

HAVE YOU EVER CUT YOUR OWN HAIR

HOW DID IT TURN OUT?

Animal Symposium…

 FRIENDSTERization

                                       

Stop_1

When I got the email announcing that Friendster is FINALLY allowing blogging, I STOPPED everything I was doing and quickly created one. After all, the only thing more exciting about listening to gossip is creating one of your own *wink*

Friendster has truly revolutionized the way we look at the world.
!!! We are under going a FRIENDSTERIZATION

Just think, every single person you don’t know could know someone you do know. Isn’t that insane?! After much meditation and a couple of drinks (tea) in the steam room, this really got me burning wood (it’s figurative ok). I recycle unlike some people and I always buy bio-degradable cups. Although what they degrade the cups into, I couldnt tell you. 

So anyway, as I delved deeper and deeper into the recesses of my mind, all of a sudden it hit me! What if animals were friendsterized! That would be so fascinating.

Let’s take my aunt’s dog, Benji, for a minute. Benji’s playmate is Pwincess, who got to know Murphy because they pee in the same mailbox on the corner of 42nd and 5th every single day. Murphy knows Pugsy because he destroyed Pugsy’s chew toy, Elmo. So Pugsy’s just sad and has no friends. Murphy lives in the same house as Attila, the fearsome white cat, who got caught chasing Bunny up a tree. Pwincess knows bunny because he fell on her while attempting to climb down. Bunny knows Bert, the cigarette smoking naval dog, who is trying to help Bunny get over his fear of cats. Bert sent the famous llama, Yo Yo Ma after Attila because it’s the one thing Attila is scared of. Llamas.

In case you guys didnt catch all that, here is a diagram I created which I lovingly call, The Animal Symposium (lights candle  in memory of Plato, the inspirer of the title).

Animal_sym

So when people ask me now why I am on friendster and what purpose does friendster serve? I pull up my sleeves, put up my hair, pick up my Animal Symposium diagram, and proceed to speak these wise words - "It’s all about Friendsterization."                     AMEN BROTHA !
