Soo... I have my monitor now. YAY!! Its very weird because its only 15 inches and doens't take up as much room as my old one. There's so much free space that I even got to put up a picture on the wall behind it. :) Its nice though... I lie. Its really really nice. Its so bright and there are COLORS!! :) Niiiiiiccceeee...
Last night, it was really bad not having the computer. I was on the phone with Carrie when my cellie died. Well, I almost freaked cause my numbers are of course, stored in my phone and that was my last link to the OUTSIDE. But I got out of that pickle with no tears. :) I made me wonder how I survived back in the day without AIM? I talked on the phone a lot... typical teenage girl stuff. I remember having long 3 way "party line" talks with Lisa, Melissa, Tam, Jo, and Maria just trying to figure out what the freak we were gonna do for "Sadies" or wear on free dress days. (Who's DJ Pizza Lunch!) Wow.. that was so long ago. and I didn't have a cell... it was all about PAGERS! Big bulky ones that looked like garage openers... the computer and chatting just make it simpler and cheaper without the long distance rates. :)
At least I stayed clear of the *G* line. HAHAHAHA
Do people still use MIRC? There were some really interesting folks on that...
Anyways, in less geeky computer news, the other day, I was at Borders doing some studying when I gave myself a little break to do some "fun mind candy" reading with a romance novel. Unfortunantly, the one I picked was really really HORRIBLE... here's a slight run down and you can judge for yourself: Boy likes girl. Girl likes boy. They go out on one date, but it doesn't work out because boy wants to leave small town after high school and girl wants to stay. Fast forward 10 years. Boy's mom is pretending she is dying so that she can have grandchildren, so boy comes back to town and flips a coin with his brother and decides that he shall be the sacraficial lamb. So, of course, he runs into girl... and of course.. they fall in love. Oh.. but wait... girl has "dad" issues which of course leads to problems with boy but its all a misunderstanding with dad and really, its mom who has the issues... girl finds out about coin toss and thinks that boy doesn't really love her... and while all this is happening.. SOMEONE is going around the town stealing the women's panties.
But of course... everyone lives happily ever after and all the panites are returned.
I really should have stopped after the first few chapters, but I couldn't put the book down it was so bad it was good...

For the last 2 days, I've been waking up to the sound of a doorbell. But there's no one at the door... Delusional? I think so too.... its probably my innerself HOPING that its the mailman outside with a nice package (containing a monitor) for me...
But hey, I'm way way way ahead in my reading and homework for school... :) Go me! Go bored and lonely me with no contact with the outside world! :)
I'm kidding. :) Really... I have my phone. :) CALL ME!! HEEELLLPPP!!
I'm going to stop now. :P

The other night, I was watching REAL SEX on HBO (don't ask...) and they had a segment on this Swingers Convention. So, I'm watching, and first of all... its pretty interesting. A lot of naked folks... and they're all types... old, young, big, small, etc.. who are all down for "sharing." (sick) Then I realize that the "convention center" and hotel they're holding it looks very much like the hotel in San Diego where we went to International 3 years ago. Actually, I'm pretty sure it was. So, at first, I'm like excited because its familiar... I know that place.. I've been there! But then, they started showing groups of folks getting it on in the hotel rooms this ill feeling came over me... EWW!! I KNOW THAT PLACE!! I'VE BEEN THERE! EWW! THAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN MY HOTEL ROOM!! The segment seemed pretty old because when they were wearing clothes, the fashion seemed outdated... so then I'm calculating in my head that I highly doubt that the hotel people swabbed the place down after the "Swingers Convention"... they've probably washed the sheets, but you do think they' steamed the carpets, scrubbed the couches and chairs, or disinfected rooms where "swinging action" might have taken place? Ewww... probably not. I was telling Jean how disturbed I was by this the last night, when she pointed out that folks have sex (maybe giant freak-nasty orgies even) in hotel rooms all the time, but we just don't think about it. Actually, it really isn't something you wanna think about anyways... thats something to think about if you're gonna be in a hotel anytime soon...

How did we EVER survive without STORM WATCH!
**note the incredible amount of sarcasm dripping from that comment**
According to STORM WATCH! it was supposed to rain all during the night (which it did) and for the next few days... they had footage of people stocking up on sand bags and extra food supplies...
Its pretty sunny outside.
I really shouldn't be complaining because I got the day off because of this giant STORM. I think I shall go rollerskating... in my garage. It might start raining again...
Anyways, I've been going through computer withdrawal. I know it sounds pathetic, but I am. (going through the withdrawal... not pathetic.) With the monitor out of commission, my computer has been rendered useless until the new one comes in... and the computer I'm using now is only limited during the day so no late night chit-chatting about *stuff.* Its weird to reallize how much you miss and depend on the simple interaction of chatting online.
Perhaps I'm strange like that, but I miss the sight of your font... :)

Yay... blogger is finally working again! :)
I'm quietly using my mom's computer in her room. So... If I chat with you... please don't make me laugh out loud...
The fridge has been making this horrible noise every hour that always seems to give me the heebeegeebies when it does. It sounds like its groaning or something. It has never done it before, but lately, its been happening more often and growing louder. Weirdness.... Is the fridge cursed? Is there an evil spirit within the ice box thats trying to get out? Gosh, I hope not because that would definitely be creepy. I'll just think happy thoughts and say that it's "old." Poor old decrepid fridge...
Speaking of wierd, did anyone else feel the earthquake early friday morning around 4am-ish? I was lying in bed, trying to sleep and then all of the sudden, I hear my closet walls rattling and I felt the room shaking. It wasn't like a violent *OH MY GOODNESS* shaking... it was more of a slight rolling ... I had thought it was only a 2 or 3... but it was a 5?! No way!! I remember when I was younger, a 5 was HUGE... or so I thought. I was also shorter and closer to the ground in that sort, so maybe thats why it was so big to me. I'm gonna knock on wood now because I don't anything worse to come... especially at work. That place is not exactly what one might define earthquake safe with giant centerpieces chillin a top of 10 foot shelves above my head. I already made a whole bunch of mental notes just in case a earthquake were to happen... which door to run under, the general area I want to get the hell away from, etc.
Woah... just started chatting with my CRAZY uncle, my mom's CRAZY brother... This is the uncle who used to terrorize my sister and myself when we were younger, chasing us around the house in his tap shoes, etc... but we grew up and learned how to talk. He is the reason why we are such smart mouths... At first I had no idea who he was and he was creeping me out cause he was making references to my life...but then... it just clicked. The SN has been changed because he threated death if I were to share it...
*welcome to my world...*
crazyunclewithsecretlife: are you on winter break? what's carl up to lately?
spaznik: nope.. we're all back at school...
spaznik: shes ok.. same ole stuff.
spaznik: whoring and snorting coke..
spaznik: you know.
crazyunclewithsecretlife: i bet! she has a major psycho baggage. she needs to accept that inside carl there is a man trying to come out! i think the boyfirend is just for show!
spaznik: hahaha... what are you doing chatting?
spaznik: are you finding your OWN boyfriend?
crazyunclewithsecretlife: my boy toy if asking for more...1 viagra a night is all i can manage.
spaznik: eww?!
crazyunclewithsecretlife: i better close for now, gotta work early. boy toy was here to help me set up this chat blah blah...in exchange for (oh you know...he only likes me for my body!)
spaznik: so he works for cheap huh.
crazyunclewithsecretlife: well, the stock market is down!
I told you he was crazy!!

Lets have a moment of silence... for my monitor died on me offically yesterday. Its actually kinda funny because the other night, I had a dream that I was sitting in front of it and then all of a sudden, it just sparked and smoke came out of it. So I guess, the spirit of the monitor was coming to me in a dream and saying goodbye... kinda sweet huh... if you believe in that sort of thing.
Argh.
Luckily I found a nice new one @ a reasonable price with a 10% discount at dell.com... free shipping too! So during those 5-7 days, I'll be reverting to those olden day practices and journaling with good ole ink and paper. Gosh.. how savage. :P
Ew... I just wrote out my smiley... colon and a "p". NERD!!
Anyways, I had a nice time last night despite the HUGE let down... where shall I start...
First of all, went to dinner with Carlene and mom. The food was average but the conversation was out of this world. Seriously. Basically, it was a lot of talk about love and marriage... and lets just say that you NEVER imagine you parents having drama... like "my age" drama. Incredible...
After dinner, it was off to LA to pick up Carrie.. and then it was off to the Laugh Factory for some "good times" with my heart of hearts Dane Cook. *sigh* Anyways, I swear... we were SITTING ON THE STAGE!! If I wanted, I could have easily thrown myself on him.. but I didnt... :(
There were some pleasant suprises... the first comedian was Jon Lovitz, who was really cool to see and all because he's a "big" celebrity, but his jokes kinda sucked. The second guy was Bob *Danny Tanner* Saget... Carrie's newest crush. :) Oh my goodness.. he was F*CKING HILARIOUS!! You grow up with his goody goody persona on TV and its just quite a shock to hear him say the things he said. Too funny. Richard Jeni was up next.. who was great too, but he kept on cupping his left hear with his hand and that was just odd.
Anyways, so there we were.. waiting for DANE COOK.. and the host is introducing the FINAL ACT... and so I'm getting pretty... ready to charm him with my oh so adorable laugh... (or so I think) and dreaming of wedding invitations... but then... the host doesnt say his name. Its another comedian!!
WHAT!??
Well... a good majority of the audience was there to see him, so you could totally feel the energy leave the room... which sucked for the last guy. Folks were majorly disappointed that he wasn't Dane... so they just weren't into it anymore. Granted.. he was funny.. but it wasn't the same.
So, although I'm somewhat brokenhearted because I didn't get to see him, the night wasn't a complete bust because the show was still pretty great. Its like coming home from partying at a gay club. You had fun.. you were surrounded by tons of hot shirtless guys... and yet you you feel unfufilled.
OH!! Scott Baio is alive!! Carlene went into a massive giddy fit when we saw him in the club. He had this shirt unbuttoned and was wearing a gold medallion. Thought I'd shared that tid-bit of fascinating information. :)
BTW! Its 2/22!! soooooo...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY CARRIE!!!

Evil Monitor
How I loathe you're uselessness
Everything is black
Posted by Nicole at 1:54 PM 0 comments
Oh.. before I forget... I *heart* Kathy! Just because... :)
~*~
You gotta love the sweetness and silly kookie-ness of those old Fred Astire and Ginger Rogers movies...They just make you smile and tape quarters to the bottoms of your shoes and tap dance along with them. *tap-a tap-a tap-a* You know what I realized though, they never actually kiss in them. They'll hug and get real close to one another, but we never really see "lip action." And whats really interesting is that they'll have some bawdy and risque jokes that I think would be pretty scandalous back in the 1930's.. and yet, no kissing. Hmmm...
Funny thing too is that Fred always seems to fall in love with Ginger like *that.* He's already proposing marriage and dancing to get her attention. And Ginger, will be stubborn at first, but since Fred is so charming and had the right "moves"... she falls for him back. Its so ridiculously cute... too bad real life can't be like that... although it would be different to see folks tap dancing and singing at the spur of the moment just because they feel like it. Just imagine, finding the cutest shoes at the mall... ON SALE. That would be something to sing and dance to.. and then the sale people can come up behind you and form a chorus line....
Ok. I'll stop now before it gets too TOO imaginative.

Hmmm.. is it me or has blogger been acting really weird lately? I think it has...
Actually, everything seems to be acting weird... My monitor has been really off. Basically, I think its time that I start saving up for a new one. The screen has become too too bright on the top... dark on the bottom... and the edges are very much crooked. All of these factors are making my eyes go crossed-eyed and blurry if spent in front of it for an obscene amount of time. Like now, I can't tell the difference between "i" and "l"... acck!!
My day went ok today... it was just when I got home that I got really bleh. Anyways, while in my "bleh-ness" I listened to some A*teens and other various types of "happy" music and went on a cleaning/organizing rampage. And so now, I'm quite content, and my closet is tidy. Wicked. :)
Anyways, I found this sweet quote by L.M. Montgomery that I thought was really nice.. . :)
surely such love will hover around you all your life. Like an invisible benediction..."
- The Schoolmaster's Letters

Oh my gosh, big props to Manny to introducing me to such a wicked feature....
Do you have a webcam? Well, you can totally use it now when you AIM with THIS. Its basically the webcam feature on yahoo messenger... if you know what I'm talking about. If not, its a webcam feature that allows you to chat with it. :) OoOoOoOoo... thats right. You download and install it, and then you can invite people to look at your cam! No more looking like crap behind the computer! Its fun stuff!!
Except I really don't know about sending the link to someone.. its like going "hey.. check me out!!" and that might indicate to that person that I might be doing something wicked or bad behind the camera... but I'm not. you'll just be watching me type... So I don't know if its really ALL that exciting. Plus you might be disappointed that I'm not actually LOLing when I type it. :P If you wanna see, then just ask. :) I won't do your bidding though... well, maybe I might lick my lips for you... sicko. ;P
Just don't be creepy like Carrie...
ckicarrie: i'm baaaaaaaaaaaack!
ckicarrie: and i've been secretly stalking you for five minutes...
ckicarrie: muhahahaha.
Oh my...

Pour some sugar on me
Ooh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Oh, I can't get enough
I'm hot, sticky sweet
From my head to my feet yeah
When I'm at work, my boss likes to listen to classic rock... and so I've had this fine Def Leppard tune in my head all day long. It makes me wanna thrash my hair about, wear a lot of silver, and maybe dance about a pole.

Joe Millionaire... don't even get me started...
Actually...
He doesn't seem like the brightest guy out there... he's not the crispiest dorito in the bag... one fry short of a happy meal... one taco short of a combination plate... the wheel is turning but the hamster is dead. And yet, women think he's the dreamiest... Ok. So I admit, I watched it tonight and you know how he confessed his "love" to the girl that he picked?? "I CHOOSE YOU." What!?! So do I swoon now?? Sure, he looks terriff half naked in tight underware... but maybe he should cut some of that elastic and get some blood circulating.
carrie: hahahaaha...that's like pokemon!
carrie: "pikachu...I CHOOSE YOU!"
lisa: he looks like the missing link
Sadly enough, even though he made his choice, he got the girl and now has the money... it STILL isn't over. Next week... its the REUNION! And like the sick freak that I am, I will be casually flipping through it just to see what happens...

I think Petey should get a medal or something for kicking it with two single girls OTR.. on Valentines... :) My friday night was really nice, just kicking it here at home. I had hoped on watching INDIANA JONES AND THE TEMPLE OF DOOM... but since I am as blind as a potato, I accidently picked the wrong box and got LAST CRUSADE instead. ARGH!! Anyways, in addition to the mixed movie... I also convinced Carrie and Petey to get A CHIPMUNK ADVENTURE. YAAY! Talk about old school... it was on VHS! Where's the menu button!?! What? No special features?! OH my...
Mom: You didn't have a Valentines date? Even I got asked out!!
*ouch*
Anyways, Saturday morning, had breakfast (I stocked up since I knew that Petey was coming), and my mom and sister grilled him on his OUTRAGEOUS Valentines purchase for a certain girl. Poor guy, he probably didn't know what hit him... (What.. are you freaking out now going "I can't believe she wrote that?" Well.. I DID! ;P 2 WORDS!!!) And then it was off to the mall to go Carrie conventions dress shopping.. and attempt to play dress up Petey. Wow... I didn't know ties could cost so much. Interesting.
Came home and RUSHED to get ready. My mom had gotten tickets to the Alvin Ailey Dance Theater showing over in Costa Mesa from one of the doctors... it was SOOOOOOOOOOO great!! :) It was really cool because it wasn't classical ballet, it was very jazzy and just very... WOW. I can't describe it. :) And we had some terriffic seats.... Honestly, for a moment there, I was afraid that I would be bored to death because the first piece was pretty abstract. In my mind, I was following the dancers and thinking "ok.. so theres a struggle... and she is frustrated... and um... now they're all happy and they DANCE!" but after that, the other numbers were so fun and easy to follow. Amazingly, they had about 6 curtain calls and an encore at the end... and even more curtain calls after that! It was great!
Afterwards, went to a late dinner with Carlene and Carrie over at TGIFs... where Jill was celebrating her birthday!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY JILL!! *why are YOU so mean to me... drunkie!* Got to see a whole lot of folks whom I haven't seen in ages, which was really really nice. ;) While we were there, had a conversation with Carrie concerning me, my retardedness and fright regarding the opposite sex.
Carrie: I can already see the guy that you'll end up with, so you don't have to worry...
Nicole: But what if he doesn't like me?
Carrie: I'll deal with that.
Awwwwww... isn't she the sweetest and greatest friend?

"I don't have anyone to bump bump bump with!"
~random girl behind me at the grocery...
I spent a good portion of my day sitting in front ot the TSU trying to peddle off these chocolate kiss roses to people... Kristin and I came up with the GREATEST SLOGAN EVER for the event. "BUY A ROSE FOR YOUR HO..... NEY." :) How much does that rock!?!?! Anyways, this one frat was going around to random girls and serenading them with a song. It was sweet... Kristin and I wanted them to come over to us so that we can request "Bump and Grind" or "Feelin on Your Booty".. but they didn't. Next time?
OH... NOTE TO EVERYONE! When you get married... don't EVEN consider doing it on Valentines day because your flowers will be 10 times expensive. Really.. don't. We had one bride who didn't even take that into consideration and didn't budget enough... so she's making her own centerpieces. And they're kinda ugly. So... yeah. Stay clear of Feb 14 unless you're incredibly rich. Or you wanna make your own... whatever tickles your pickle.
*something to be grateful for*
I love my family and my friends... they're my busom buddies and kindred spirits, and just as long as I have them in my life.. I'd never be lonely on a holiday such as this.

My day started off pretty crappy. At school, some evil man cut me off in the parking lot and STOLE the parking space I had my BLINKER on for!! I even honked!! Oh my gosh, I was sooooooooo angry... I contemplated being equally evil and going to his car and keying it down... but dude, thats karma. He'll get it someday.... maybe his penis will shrink or fall off or something...
Then, since it was raining.. we couldn't sell the roses! argh....
Since my classes are in the afternoon, I go home... but when I do go back, I'm in traffic for 45 minutes and I nearly miss my first class. Double argh...
I survive my classes, which were actually entertaining.
Drove home, only to hit massive traffic again... Its weird... people will stop and look at a car accident in the rain... and once they pass it, they'll speed up like no other. It doesn't make sense.
So then, I get home... and I see these giant puddles on the street. So... take my belongings inside, and then I run outside and just JUMP. :) JUMP JUMP JUMP JUMP. It was like "Singing in the Rain." I swear, it was the greatest feeling ever... I was cold and soaked, my socks and shoes were mushy... but I was happy. I don't think I've jumped in a puddle since I was a kid... go and try it. :)

Its raining... its pouring... the old man is snoring. He bumped his head on the end of the bed and couldn't get up in the morning....
That really isn't a great song for kids to sing when you think about it. The old man might have a concussion... or even worse might be in a coma or something. And really, what does the rain have to do with all of that? Anyways...
My arms and thumbs are sore (not to mention a tad bit sticky) from making a whole bunch of those "kiss" roses. But while I was aching away with the floral tape, wires, and chocolate... I was crying like a baby while watching "An Affair To Remember" on tv. *sigh* I love that movie... just hearing the music can make my teary. You gotta love music and its ability to produce memories with just a couple of notes. Like everytime I hear "Up Where We Belong"... I remember watching that one Chipmunk episode when the Chipmunks and the Chipettes went to the White House to save these Eagles in the forest... or "Material Girl" I remember that other Chipmunk episode when Brittney went shopping while Janette watched the baby pig that was their science project.. or "My Boyfriend's Back" when the Chipmunks and the Chippettes were at a Sock Hop and everyone was fighting for a red hula hoop.... and whenever they finished singing in front of the audience... there was always this big happy "YAAAAY" in the end...
I really really loved the Chipmunks. They rocked... so hard. :)

I got this free subscription to YM magazine... and I recieved my first issues last week. I completely forgot that this magazine is targeted toward teenage girls... its pretty hilarious reading it.
For example...
"My boyfriend told me he loved me on Valentines Day. I said I felt the same way, and he picked me up in a giant bear hug. All of a suddent, I let out a huge fart. My boyfriend was so grossed out that he put me down and didn't say a word for a good 15 minutes."
Oh my goodness... I was a teen once, long ago... and I think I was probably retarded like that. Actually, I KNOW I was retarded. (Don't you dare say "you still are Nicole... because I'm not. :P I'm a sophisticated and charming young lady. Uh huh!! I am SO!) The other week, I was at the mall with my mom and we saw some obnoxious teens just being loud... and my mom pointed at them and said "That used to be you."
*gasp*
Not that I was being hugged and farting all the time, it was just that everything was BIG DEAL. Everything was major... You were loud and acted "cool" because thats how you got attention... I remember kicking it at Coffee Bazaar with Melissa and Harmony when we saw this one cute guy that we had a faint acquaintance with at the other side of the cafe... and we just kept on giggling and staring and being silly girls infactuated with hotness. Eventually, when my mom came to pick us up, we rolled down the windows and as we passed him outside, we hooted and hollered at him... Right after, we ducked down and hid in the car. Giggling excessively of course.
Yep. Retarded.
Anyways, they have quizzes in the magazine and this month its DOES HE LIKE YOU... lets see...
Its raining. You missed the bus home. Its a five mile walk to your house. You spot his car heading your way. What happens next?
a) He offers you a ride but makes you promise not to drip water on his leather seats
b) He stops to offer you a ride and give you his coat to keep warm. Oddly, he knows the way to your house even though you've never invited him there.
c) He speeds up and aims for the puddle you're walking past. And then he yells something that sounds like "sucks to be you."
C! He TOTALLY wants me... I know it!

:) I am so proud of my baby sister! She did a kick *throws quarter into the non-cussing pot* ASS job on organizing the formal for the USC Chi Delta Theta founding class tonight. Even though there was drama throughout the entire day and a whole lot of answers were still up in the air right minutes before it started, it was great. :) She worked so hard and I'm so glad that she accomplished everything in such a awesome way! :) Oh.. and I can't forget Jill... who rocks too! (even though she's missing a toenail. eww.)
Since I really didn't know anyone there, I spent the night talking with Tracy whom I was SHOCKED to discover has a secret LOVE for CONAN too! Oh my goshness! And she got to see a taping of him in NY! OH MY GOSHNESS AGAIN! Lucky lucky LUCKY! We also talked about how bad our dates were because they kept on ditching us. ;) (jk... I don't wanna hear any "why are you so mean to me's" ;P) Anyways, there was a part when all the actives surrounded the pledges and sang Celine Dion's "Because Loved Me" and it was sooooooo girly bonding. So I was laughing not at them, but at all the guys that were in the room who had this look of "um.. OOKKKAAAY" on their faces. A lot of times, it just make me think about those old St Lucy traditions... like Kairos or Rose and Candle... and if there were boys at school then, they probably would have had the same looks their faces too.
After all the presentations... we DANCED! :)
Anyways, like I said, I'm extremely proud of Carlene. :) She handled herself in such a calm manner and totally rocked. Tonight, I got to see her shine... and I am so happy to be her true sister.

This morning, PETEY MADE ME MAKE HIM BREAKFAST. I was looking for food this morning, and as usual, we didn't have any... so I said "Sorry Petey... if we had milk... I'd make you pancakes.." to which he replied.. "well... you need it anyways..." and we went to the grocery to get milk, sausages, orange juice, syrup, and my own essential... NAKED JUICE. ;) (mmm.. good stuff.) Well to make it fair, Petey cooked the sausage... but I got down and dirty with the pancake batter. Okok.. so there was a lot of burnt pancakes.. but I think they came out alright... and hopefully no one is suffering from massive stomach cramps. *hopefully*
Anyways, after spending the day cleaning, packing, and runing various errands... I finally had a late dinner with Carrie and then rushed over here so that I can deliver and start tagging the centerpieces for the formal tomorrow. (er.. today... whatever.) :)
Oh... I forgot to ask... HEY DJ TANNER.. HOW WAS THE GIG?? I totally thought of you today when Carlene was showing me this one DJ website.. ;) I manged to get next weekend off, so if thats the weekend you're down, CALL ME! ;)
Hmmm.. what else? I can't think at the moment and there are 150 centerpieces that are beckoning to be fluffed and tagged... NOT TO MENTION... I love me my CONAN. ;) *grr*

I swear... Petey's birthday NEVER ENDS!! :) I hope to have pictures of him, with balloons in his chest dancing on a chair amid HOOTERS girls up soon.... pinky swear.
Luc got me some hot sauce...
Anyways, in typical "what are we going to do" fashion, we ended up at the Adult Video and Toy shop on Colorado... there I was very excited to find the titles "Whore of the Rings" and "Lord of the C*ck Rings... I swear, whoever writes those things are just hilariously creative. Where can I sign up for that job...
*note* I'm not REALLY so pervy... I just like looking at the titles. The pictures on the boxes are pretty frightful and I try not to look at them. Really!

Its been a long couple of days, but I finally figured out my class schedule!! YAY! Somehow I manged to it so that I only have to fight for parking twice a week! How exciting is that! OH! And one of my professors looks like Anthony Edwards with Billy Joel eyes... and old school Michael Bolton hair. Not necessarily exciting, just weird.
BTW, my sister is retarded.
Auto response from spaznik: talk nerdy to me
carlene is nice: i wanna tie you up with my eye glass holders... and use my pocket protector to make tiny scatches on your back....
carlene is nice: OoOoO
carlene is nice: and then i wanna break your glasses... and tape them up with masking tape
carlene is nice: OoOO yeah right there in the middle
carlene is nice: and then when you least expect it... im going to recite for you the theory of evolution in LATIN
carlene is nice: OH YEAH... DO IT!! DO IT!!
On the other hand...
jussme79: I had a nightmare
spaznik: oh no! why?
jussme79: a crab with loafers was chasing me
jussme79: does it mean I'm gay?

The lightning around the crab emphasizes the gay. ;P

Ok.. I missed the pink. So shoot me. ;P But hey, baby got her archives back!
I watched "Not Another Teen Movie" earlier today... the movie SUCKED... Did we really have to see all those breasts!??! Blah. Anyways, it had this really great soundtrack of 80's remakes from old Molly Ringwald movies thats worth mentioning if you like that kind of stuff. :)
I haven't been working a lot of weekends lately due to the fact that there hasn't been a lot of weddings to decorate... as much as I love the free time, my wallet is suffering majorly. Today, I bought gas... with a handful of quarters. OUCH. Pretty sad huh... I guess it could be worse though, I could have dragged a giant sparklets jug of pennies or soda tabs to the gas station... :P
Wanna see something?
I had this really horrid nightmare the other night... to the point were I guess I was tossing and turning in bed a lot... and well, I knocked this picture crooked. Funny thing is that I only noticed it's "off-ness" now. I thought I was going crazy...

Back to school... yay!?! :)
I actually ran into someone whom I don't really like today on campus. But I remained civil because 1) it had been a while since I had seen this person and so maybe he changed in the past 5 years 2) I've been actually thinking of someone with whom we shared a "common connection" with and now, I sort of feel sad about the way things turned out between us... So there I was walking to the union, and there he was. I really couldn't avoid him because there wasn't a whole lot of people to just "pretend" I didn't see him and well to just completely ignore him would just down right snobby. So I said "Hey!" in a very cheerful, friendly manner. He, on the other hand was very.. um... not friendly? Yeah... a brief chat on how things are going and it was very obvious that he didn't want any part of my company. Which is fine because... he was and still is an a$$. But in my mind, I wanted to relate a message to him to say "HI" for me to our mutual acquaintance... but I just didn't know how to say it because I think that anything I would have said would have been deemed in his eyes as "pathetic" or "loserish"... you know how it is sometimes... with some people you just can't win somehow? Anyways, I didn't get to say anything, but now I wish I had... because even IF he did relay the message... someone would know that I just kinda sorta still care, in a "distant, I'm probably never going to see you again, but I'm here" sort of way.
Darn that jerk Usher-wannabelook-alike a@@ *bleepity bleep bleep*... Argh.

Auto response from Zasher816: a sleep...nicole's buddy icon has disney's lady and the tramp doin it doggy style on spaghetti...sicko
They're kissing!! Its the best part of that movie! :P He just went and RUINED the cuteness!!
I picked up some pictures from Cosco today... I have this bad habit of NOT getting film developed once I'm finished with it... it will just pile up on a shelf until I finally notice the little army of black canisters just waiting to reach their *develop*stop*fix* destiny. The pictures I have now are from New Years, Christmas, Masquerade, FTC, Carlene's birthday in September, my nanang's birthday in August, International Convention in Florida, and District Convention 2001 over in Woodland Hills... WOAH!! Talk about pleasant suprises... That was like finding buried treasure!
