My PuRpLe HaiR!!! 

200

Hello everyone once again!!! (Psst, Tracey I put a pic w/ my purlple hair, you can't see it that well, but something is something) How is everyone today? I am fried... well, more like fish fried. Yup, you heard right. I met another fishy today. Now, I don't have anything against that species, but lately that's all the new people I have been meeting and living on this campus which is at least much larger than Sharyland H.S. I thought it would have been freaking time already that I have met somebody new and OLDER or my age. But now it's this thing with the young ones. Am I being punished or something? I just want somebody I can talk to and that will understand me and based on alot of the conversations I have had with some, it doesn't seem like that might happen. (All these comments exclude Ryn, Christin, Brian, and Ms. BITS, if I missed anyone else I apologize) I just want to meet people, or maybe I just want to go back to Europe and meet Europeans, male Europeans, hot male Europeans, older hot male Europeans, older hot male Europeans who are not German. Don't get me wrong it's not that I don't like them, it's just that I've tried them...hehehe. I am thinking more Italian, French, Spanish, Serbian (hmmm), or something for crying out loud. Ahhh! (Inhale, Exhale, Inhale, Exhale)

Ok, so, (I am over that melodramatic 5 seconds) today was a bit weird. The bank did not want to take my check just because it said two-hundred dollars in Spanish. Can you believe the ignorance of those people? As I last recall two hundred dollars is two hundred dollars...it doens't matter in what language it is in. Ugh!!! Anyways, they still took it because I made that percise argument. I believe that today's moral of the story is that we, as Americans, must embrace ther world and get rid of the idea that it revolves around us, because it DOESN'T. And once we learn to do that, the world in our eyes will seem like a much better place.

Yet Again Another Day

So I have only been back to school for one day after a break of about 6 days that included about 12 hours of sleep at night and I am dead tired. It must be this dumb cold I have not been able to get rid of for about the last month or it might be a guilty conscious. It's just that I cannot imgaine how I manage to become so tired in the span of 24 hours. I might be getting old...oh no!!! Well, I do know that I have something on my mind that is not letting me function properly right now, but I cannot reveal it yet. It will all come with time. But I know its going to tear up my life and make it better all at the same time. I think I should follow Ian's dream therapy. You should try it as well. Read this before you go to bed.

Dear Inner Self,
If it is your will please reveal to me in a dream my greatest strength and my greatest weakness so that I may rebaptize myself in the transformative power of ART.
With love & Respect,
(insert your name here)


It helps, it puts all your worries out there =)

Sunday is my Funday

So today was a bit interesting, civilization is back at Rochester. I don't know if that is a good thing or a bad thing. A few highlights of my day:

Brian, Shannon, and I went to D-forth

I started on my polisci paper
I finished The House of the Spirits
Had a long talk with my mom
Went to Mass
My room mate came back
Steve came to visit me (yay!!!)
Watched the best 20 minutes of "Robin Williams LIVE"
Realized that I only have about 3 weeks before I go home
Realized that there are only about 17 days until my 21st B-day (woohoo, yeehaw!!!)

Val the Saint

The Saint

I must say I think my favorite movie with VAL KILMER must be The Saint (that's if you don't count his 1985 classic Real Genius). What can I say about this man in this film. Oh my goodness, his seductive eyes, his luscious lips, his beautifual hair, his everything; in other words it's all good!!! hehehe Although this is one of my favorite films I can only watch it when I am in a certain mood, and last night that happened. I made myself some lasagna, got my nice cozy blanket, and enjoyed for the next 2 1/2 hours the company of Mr. KILMER. It does not matter how many times I watch this film, I always end up falling in love with this man over and over again. (1,2,3 sigh). The only thing I do regret is not watching it with my lil' sis Jessy, because she enjoys watching it as well (unlike White Nights, right Jaja? =P ). But I'll soon be home so we can both stare into the tube and be completely taken over VAL. hehehe Oh my, I bet everyone else who is reading this wants to either puke or puke. lol Well peepz, to those who have not seen the movie I totally recommend it, and for those who have, I also recommend watching it once again and deciding which one is your favorite saint.

Yesterday and Turkeyday

Turkey, Turkey

So, it's been quite interesting being one of the 5 people alive on this campus for the past 2 to 3 days. I have realized that the campus is actually quite pleasant when it is not being bombarded by annoying freshmen (not all of them are), there aren't any rampages going on, and when the closest thing you come to harm is a bee sting. However, I do wish more of the food places were open. I am not saying that I adore Aramark food (oh, God no!), but I am saying that I can only handel so much mac&cheese. The good thing was that my friend Natalie made some quite good turkey today and now I am about to fall asleep. I don't care about all that whole crap that says it is biologically impossible to fall asleep due to the cause of eating too much turkey. Well, you know what? I say it is, all that eating, and moving of your arm up and down in order to bring that tender and delicious piece of white (or dark) meat to your mouth. After an hour of that it can surely wear you out. So, Ha!!! I have proven my theory. Too much work=nap time

On another note, I am saddened because I am not spending the holidays with my family. My mom called me a while ago and it took all my strength to hold my tears back. I only wish I could be home during these times. Funny, how I think myself of being this independent woman who can control and lead a life single-handedly, but when it comes to the very end of things, I am just a little 5-year old girl wishing to hold on to the back of her mother's leg for protection. Well, the good thing is I will spending Christmas with them which I am bound to gain 25 extra pounds because my mother has been telling me the menu. Oh my goodness will there be food!!! I await the day. Well everybody out there, I wish you a Happy Thanksgiving and keep it real.

A New Blog

Hey this is me and welcome to my BLOG!!!

So, I have tried to keep an online journal for many times now, however, it always ends up screwing me in the butt at some point or another. Oh well, I was bored (once agian) and decided to start one up except I am not all that competent when it comes to these things so bare with me in the first couple of entries. =) Anyways, we are a couple of days away from Thanksgiving and the hall seems "oh so lonely" . Unfortunaltely, I am staying here, and I will be missing out on the 90 degree weather of the Rio Grande Valley and the warmth of my friends and family. I guess the only good thing that might possibly come out of this will be doing some work (yeah right!). During these times I feel that I it is really easy to tell who my friends are. For example, I have been somewhat ignored and mistreated here by people, but I feel so close and accepted by Tracey (my B.F.) back at home. No matter how badly my day is going she always makes me smile.

Well, for a change in subject I guess I will start telling my adventures to y'all!!! So, Saturday was definately the highlight of this week and probably of the month. The M.O.B. crew and I went to Saratoga Springs (or is it Falls? oh well!!!) to see THE ONE, THE ONLY Ian Belton (our ex director for A Mouthful of Birds). The ride up there was insane. Matt, Venus, Ted, Shannon, and I all crammed into an early 90s Escort and began our 4 1/2 hour trip to see the oldest 6 year old. hehehe The play was alright (I have a bias towards Mouthful), but then we hang out we Ian after the show and it was insane. He is one of the smartest people I know, and so creative, and so.... Ahhhh, it's just awesomeness all around whenever we are hanging out. Around 12:30 a.m. we decided to head back to the good ol' U of R, however, Matt decided to take a detour and drive to Vermont. Yes, ladies & gentlemen, you heard correctly....VERMONT!!! 45 freaking miles out of the way, thank goodness Ms. Shannon noticed the sign that said "Exit to Vermont". So we get back on the road, and yours truly takes charge of the wheel and drives all the way to Rochester. It felt so great to drive for such a long time and without anyone on the road. It was definately therapeutic. To make an even longer story long and then to make it short, we arrived around 6:30 a.m. Granted we all had work or rehearsal in a couple of hours. The bags underneath our eyes and the yawns throughout the day were definately worth it.
