The Friday Five

What was your biggest accomplishment this year?

Starting my first semester of University and doing not too badly. I didnt do as well as I had hoped, but I'll definitely be doing better in the future.

What was your biggest disappointment?

Gradnite 2002. Yeah it was a disaster.
Actually, it wasnt as bad as I sometimes make it out to be, but it definitely would have been better if certain people hadnt been around.

Will you be making any New Year's resolutions?

Nope. Never have, never will.

Where will you be at midnight? Do you wish you could be somewhere else?

I'm going to be at this get-together/party thing that my mother is dragging me to with all of her friends. So I'll be stuck on New Years with a bunch of people who are three times my age. Oh yes, I'm SOSOSOSOEXCITED! *cough* And Yes, i absolutely do wish i could be elsewhere.

Aside from (possibly) staying up late, do you have any other new years traditions?

My mom does, but I dont really go along with then. I guess the most "traditional" thing we do is drink Martinelli's sparkling cider with twelve grapes in it. One for each month of the new year, of course. If i dont go out, i usually watch the MTV New Years party thing.

i was gonna make this post like.. HOURS ago, but then i forgot what i was gonna write about.
so i thought of something else to write about. and i remembered what the first one was about, and i forgot the second one.
WAKE UP, STUPID BRAIN!

ok. so back to the first one. haha
i am now OBSESSED with BBC America. Good God, what a great channel. I generally dont watch much tv (unless you count mtv. which is totally lame but whatever, i like some of their shows) BUT BBC AMERICA IS SO GREAT!
haha. i fricken stayed up last night until nearly 6 am watching a marathon of the show Coupling.
WHAT A FUNNY FRICKEN SHOW. IT IS THE BEST TV SHOW IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD.
haha. i'm gonna try to watch regularly. if i remember and all. haha.
and hello, changing rooms? excellent.
and double hello? So Graham Norton? double excellent.
gah. i'm such a dork. haha.

i went to the mall with karla. i wasnt gonna, but my mom made me. "you need to get out of this house. LEAVE NOW!"
so yeah. everything was ok until we went to Burdines.
Generally, i really like that store. but the one in Pembroke Lakes mall is SOSOSOSOTERRIBLE! OHMYGOSH. That place is ALWAYS a mess, even off holidays. and theres always 82284374920183 people there.
Ugh. being in that store gave me a nasty headache.
I did manage to find a cute wallet.
but i didnt buy it.
karla did manage to find these cute shoes.
but she didnt buy them.

neither of us bought anything besides lunch at Pizza USA.
how pathetic are we?
sososototally pathetic.
i think this is the first time ive gone to the mall and come home empty-handed.
oh well. thus is life.

i still cant remember the other thing i was gonna write about. haha

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!
:D :D :D :D

haha. i opened my presents a bit early. My mom got me all these gadgets and things haha.
i got:

Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (DVD)
A DVD PLAYER TO PLAY IT ON. WOO (haha i have one on my comp but now i get to watch it on the big screen tv. !!!! YAAAAAY!!! haha)
2 face pallettes. (eyeshadow, blush and lip colour. one palette was all earthy metallic colors and the other palette was pinks :D )
a makeup book thingie with a stand-up mirror. bwaaahaha.
This voice recorder message reminder thing.
A camera that takes 4 sequential photos at once. bwahaha my moms so funny.
A pretty candle with a Unicorn stopper. To match my Unicorn night light that ive had forever. bwahah
the candle smells kinda gross though, so i dont think i'll be lighting it anytime soon... or ever.
A photo album that you can record messages onto. :D
and this bath set thingie that i dont really like. whatever. i'll probably give it back to my mom so she can use it. :D

i got my mommy a pair of cute shoes and a nice purse to go with them. :D

so i watched LOTR when i got home for the first time ever and OH MY GOSH IT IS SOSOSOSOGOOD! it was so sad. i was all weeping like a geek. then i was like "?!?!?! thats it?! DUDE now i have to go to the movies and see the new one! dkfsdgkdf!!" haha. i'm gonna watch it again later tonight.

and now i'm really really really really hyper and all bouncing off of walls so i'm gonna close up here haha.

DONT FORGET TO LEAVE OUT COOKIES AND CARROTS FOR SANTA AND HIS REINDEER.

oh and everyone tell me what you all got for Christmas. :D

"You'll shoot your eye out, kid!"

baaaaahaha i didnt want to mention it in my last post because i didnt wanna ruin the post with my own self-righteous stupidity, but karla told me something which i found to be most amusing.
AND I'VE MANAGED TO FORGET HOW TO TYPE, THANK YOU SO MUCH, LYRANA.
okok anyway.

Miguel, aka My Class' Valedictorian, aka "Harvard Boy", aka someone i dont very well like, is not doing as well as he expected in Harvard. Aw. So So Sad.
Now i know i may seem like a big jerk for laughing at his imminent failure, but you must understand that this kid was the hugest, most arrogant gnome-face last year. He said he was going off to Harvard to study neurosurgery. He was in the newspaper 439287321934 times, he was on tv shows, there were CONSTANTLY cameras at my High School last year interviewing this lamernoid. And he was the biggest ham.
As karla pointed out, he conducted his speech at graduation like Fidel Fricken Castro himself.
"Listen to my words!"

Now generally, i wouldnt give half of this stuff a second thought. However, i just never understood why everyone was paying such attention to this absolutely normal kid who was joining thousands of other people much superior to him at an ivy league school. Why wasnt such attention given to the other people from my city planning on going to Harvard? Why was THIS PARTICULAR BOY picked out of so many who were more deserving? He didnt earn his way up to Harvard. Like most Goleman kids, he cheated his way up there. Valedictorian status really should be based on more than just academic ranking. Truthfully.

Either way, this went from a small amusing point to an overly long rant. haha. The point was, Mr. Neurosurgeon is changing his major. Surprise, Surprise.
Whats he changing his major to, Celisse?
Oh, yes. He's changing his major from NEUROSURGERY to.. *giggle* LANGUAGE ARTS!

Ain't that a kick? Gotta love it. :D

i talked for like 2 and a half hours to Karla. She needed to get her mind off things i think.

Her family's good good friend, Patty, died of Cancer on Thursday.
She was there with her when she died.
Karla sounded like she was trying to hold back tears when she was talking to me.
For the most part we just talked about crap like we usually do. Which is good i guess because i'm sure she just wanted to not think about it for a little while, and she said that Alex had been kinda annoying her.

I didnt know what to say throughout most of the talking about Patty. Thankfully, not many people in my life have died. My Grandparents died, and while i was close with them both, it happened when i was so young. I really dont remember a lot of it. My mother came close to death three times. Two of which were in the past 2 years. It was horrible.

Things like this really kinda make you realize how lucky you are.

I'm gonna give my momma a hug in the morning. We fight a lot, but i'm glad i have her.

Rest In Peace, Patty.

..the pain is gone.

Aw i just got the nicest E-Card from Gilsy. Shes so nice. And her speech at graduation was so much better than Miguel's. I wish i'd gotten to know her better in High School. Seems i hung out with people who ended up sucking big ones and missed out on all the great people. haha. :D
I should send out E-Cards. At least to like Karla, Marcus, Karen, Lisa and Lora. I should talk to lisa, ive not spoken to her since after graduation, but i see her online a lot. haha. Karen? Yeah she IMs me sometimes. I generally avoid her (high school re-lived??) but shes not so bad. Marcus went off to basic training so i dont know when i'll speak to him again. :(

Miami radio is so horrible. My goodness. Ive been listening to a popular radio station here all day because i want to win a trip to Las Vegas haha. In the few hours ive been listening ive heard:
Eminem - Lose Yourself FOUR TIMES
Justin Timberlake - Cry Me a River & Like I Love You (or whatever, i forgot the name) FOUR TIMES!
Christina Aguilera - Beautiful THREE TIMES
Avril Lavigne (barf) - I'm With You FOUR FRICKEN TIMES
oh. my. gosh. and as i type this "Skater Boy" just came on.
SHOOT. ME. NOW.
It seems this station just plays the same 10-15 songs OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER all day.
its horrible!

What ever happened to that website, mycaster.com or something? It was so great. you downloaded this little thingie and created a playlist with all your MP3s, and it would stream them all so that you had your own radio station that other people could listen to. And you could see how many people were listening at any given time. It was great. And it also had an option where you could hook up a mic and just do a talk radio show. I loved that site. I think my station was called "Butts 'N Stuff", because it was back in 9th grade when karla and i were obsessed with butts and bodily functions. haha.

MYCASTER.COM, COME BACK!!!

[EDIT]
oh my gosh, now to just stab me in the heart, theyre playing that ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE DJ Sammy remake of Don Henley's "Boys of Summer," one of my very favorite songs. They killed killed killed killed this beautiful song. *sob*

i'll be ok...i think. *sob*
