HAH. i bought the khaki pants. they are UGLY AS SIN. i'm gonna look like such a dork. go... me? feh. OK. SO... i'm like trying to think up stuff to say so this post wont only be the friday five. uh... i had my microcomputers midterm! it was... ok i guess. i think i definitely got a b or higher, so i'm not too worried. That class is seriously the most boring thing ever. feh. Uh.. i came home. took a nap. that was nice. Because i was up till past 2am last night talking to karla. i swear, i have the most twisted sense of humor ever. i can make people laugh about things they never would expect to laugh at. GO ME! :D :D uh. yeah. not like any of you care. i dont even care. uh.. yeah ok this is enough rambling to be a proper post. ON WE GO!
What is your favorite type of literature to read (magazine, newspaper, novels, nonfiction, poetry, etc.)? I love reading novels. Magazines are usually pretty entertaining too but mostly i stick to novels. I've got a good long list of books to buy once i'm not so broke. Thus is the life of a college student. :o/
What is your favorite novel? The Stand by Stephen King. I read it once a year despite the fact that its over 1000 pages long. :D
Do you have a favorite poem? (Share it!) I do, but its pretty long. It can be found at my Livejournal Userinfo. Its from the beginning of Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is another of my favorite books. :D
What is one thing you've always wanted to read, or wish you had more time to read? Epic poetry. Like Dante's The Divine Comedy.
What are you currently reading? Currently? Sylvia S. Mader's Human Biology, Seventh Edition. ;D gaahhhhh too many text books, too little timeeeeeeee *spazz*
AGH AGH AGH Louise has a new layout up AND AND AND its of empire records! kdhgsd *spazz* haha i <333 the empire so check her outtttt. if she had a guestbook i would tell her THAT I AM IN LOVE WITH EMPIRE RECORDS, but sadly, she doesnt (hmph) so yeah. :D <333
Caroline and i spent like an hour and a half helping eachother play Gridlock. haha. That was fun. We are cheatersssss and we are cooler than your mom. haha :D
AAAAND i finally got my assignment for the SBWFF today. My shift is on Saturday from Noon to 5pm, so if you're gonna be in the South Beach area this weekend, come check me out, i'm handing out water for five hours. go me! haha. I'm actually kinda excited about it? It looks like its gonna be fun. haha. I hate what i have to wear though. Some ugly yellow tee shirt with the SBWFF logo on the front and VOLUNTEER printed all on the back and khaki pants or shorts. I dont even OWN khaki pants or shorts. So i'm gonna go with the mother-unit tomorrow and buy some. feh.
I ALSO finally got my cellphone fixed. YAY! haha but like.. my voicemail isnt working? so yeah i need to get that fixed tonight because i cannot live without my voicemail. i dont know how i did it for like 6 months. haha :D
I LOVE YOU ALL!! :D <333

eeeeeeeeee! Ive got the absolutely worst headache imaginable. I dont even know why i'm blogging. :o/ Nothing at all interesting has happened in the past few days. Well actually some stuff has, but its to be kept a secret until later. ;D
I had my lab midterm today. I failed SOBADLY its not even funny. Actually, a couple of the questions were easy since the answers were crossed out on the papers. all anyone had to do was look and they could have seen the answer. it was pretty funny. :D a couple of my friends didnt notice though, so after class when i told them, they went over and looked and felt so stupid for not noticing. haha :) Either way, i'm so dead. I'm gonna have to ace every quiz and do really well on the final in order to make up for this. :o/ So all hope isnt lost, i'm just really gonna have to work hard to keep up. I hate lab. :(
I actually really love my Bio lecture though. My teacher is so entertaining and shes always making weird jokes and things. If i have to take another science class at fiu, i'll want it to be with her. whee :D today we were talking about smoking and marijuana and all that stuff, and this guy just totally went off on a tangent about how he used to smoke up every day and this and that and the class was just... baffled. He does this often. Its pretty funny. :D Go weird guy with the funny stories! Go, GO! :D
God, writing any of this is intensely boring for me, so it must be HELL reading it, so i'm just gonna shut up and go now. ok bye!

Woo! Hah. ??? what the fruck is wrong with me? I've been high on life for like 2 days now? Ah well, better than being all depressed and stupid. woo! :D So i went last night out with karla. since neither of us lives so we figure we might as well have no lives together. We went to Pembroke Lakes Mall (*barf* i like the mall generally, but like everyone goes there, and i'm bound to see someone i know when i go there. Plus, ever since they opened a hot topic, all these little avril-wannabe lame asses have infested it.) so karla could buy a pair of jeans. Which she didnt do? She just bought cut offs exactly like the ones she was wearing. So that was pointless, whatever. We headed over to Gadzooks because karla wants to get a job there. DUDE. THEY HAD GOONIES SHIRTS! They had a Data shirt, and a Chunk shirt! I was freaking out? Karla was like "wtf is goonies?" "YO ITS ONLY THE BEST MOVIE IN THE HISTORY OF MOVIES?!!?" "uh.. kay" ...she has no appreciation for good movies. *sigh* yeah so anyway. they had these really cute flip flaps by Sugar Shoes. A-fricken-dorable. But uh. way overpriced? yeah screw that. I ended up buying these cool pink sunglasses. (i SO need a new camera. feh) Karla bought these black wide-rimmed sunglasses with rhinestones on them that looked exactly like her reading glasses from last year. oh how much were they, great Celisse? $1.04! No wonder that little brat is rich. she gets all the luck of getting things way on sale? A dollar Four for a pair of sunglasses? In a MALL STORE? what a ho. We also went to her house and watched the Royal Tenenbaums. Yo, i told her she was gonna be bored. Well maybe i didnt tell her? But i told her its funny in a way thats not like "OMG HAHAHAAH" funny. I think its a good movie so whatever. haha. :D
In other news, Louise is back! I dont know her very well but ive been looking forward for her to come back so i could read her blogs and stuff. Shes cooooool so check her outttt! also, Nat had kind of a bad day. So give her much <333.
kbye!

Random Afternoon Thoughts. WOOO!
1. Woofie has NO RESPECT for privacy. I closed my bedroom door before i left this morning because i was annoyed with him and didnt want him hanging around in my room all day. Yet i come home, AND THERE HE IS. hmph. He thinks he owns the house. No respect at all. KTHX 2. Italian BMTs from Subway are SOSOSOSOSOGOOD, and whoever first created them should have a statue erected in his name. yummy. However, these tomatoes sure are gross. ew. :D 3. I HATE SCHOOL KBYE 4. i want to go outtttttt tonight someone pick me up please?! 5. my nose is stuffy. feh. 6. i'm sleepy i think i'll take a nap. 7. Running by No Doubt is a very pretty song but it makes me feel like i am stuck inside of a nintendo! :o/ 8. I <3 YOU ALL! :D :D :D
[12:13 AM]
Dex and I are such skanky hoes. haha. We devised a raunchy version of Monopoly, called HOnopoly hahaha. Yeah. Its.. really gross. But hey, gotta hand it to us, we're damn creative. hahaha :D Rosey is gonna be Rich Uncle Roseyhoes for the game. <333 :D We're gonna market the game and sell it to all those "horny toy stores" so that we make money to launch our condom company, Deflower the Kid condoms. Hahaha. We're a scary, scary trio, i think. haha.
In other news, i did absolutely nothing today. Well thats not true. I cleaned the house. SOSOSOEXCITING. On the bright side, i did get a chance to talk to Devon, who i hadnt spoken to in QUITE a while. I forgot how cool that girl is. :D She may finally get to come down here this summer. CELISSE + DEVON TEARIN' UP MIAMI SUMMER 2003! YOYOYOYO hahaha :D She hates her school. I feel her pain. I swear, one more semester. ONE MORE SEMESTER, and off i go to FSU. hopefully. haha. Caroline is going to ORLANDO for spring break. *sob* I wanna go, take me with youuuuuu! haha <33 :D i seriously love orlando. That place is so much fun. Come on, theme parks, great radio stations, and yummy florida weather = HUGE FUN! haha. i want to go soon. Maybe karla and i will have a bit of a road trip. Go us! :D I was SOSOSOSOHYPER tonight. Honestly, it was terrible. I was singing horrible pop songs (anyone remember DREAM?!), horrible 80s songs (anyone remember FOOTLOOSE?!) and WONDERFUL musical medleys (anyone remember MOULIN ROUGE?! you can stop barfing now, dex.) haha. however, now ive got a hyper hangover and i'm feeling terrible. my arm and leg hurt terribly for some reason and ive still got some stuff to do for class tomorrow. gar.
What is your most prized material possession? Ooh i dont think i really have one. I really love all of my stuff and i get devastated when i lose something. I guess my most prized material possesion would be my photo albums. I love them dearly because i'm such a photo freak. I dont know what i'd do if anything happened to one of them. *sob* hah :D
What item, that you currently own, have you had the longest? Probably my stuffed animals. Ive had most of them from the time i was a baby.
Are you a packrat? Absolutely! One look at my bedroom will answer that question. Ive still got most of my stuff from baby-hood. About twice a year though i go through it all and clean it up a bit. I never throw away my plushies though. Mostly just magazines and things.
Do you prefer a spic-and-span clean house? Or is some clutter necessary to avoid the appearance of a museum? I prefer a spic-and-span clean house, however, its pretty tough to keep one with four dogs running around at all times. ;D I dont like to have a lot of clutter. i like being able to move around without bumping into something haha.
Do the rooms in your house have a theme? Or is it a mixture of knick-knacks here and there? Uh, not really. Its just a normal house i guess?
ok. Goodnight, kids! :D

[10:54 PM]
Ok. Ive become bored with my site. I need YOUR SUGGESTIONS as to what you might like to see here. You can email me or AIM me (i'm usually online haha) or just leave a comment. :D In the meantime, i've devised a world domination plan based upon Lyrana's poor excuse for a St. Louis Domination plan. :D It was originally posted on my LJ. You can also find Rosey and Dex's world domination plans at their livejournals. :D also? you've gotta take the following with a grain of salt. Its not like i really think all illiterate people should be killed on the spot. They just reallyreally annoy me. :D haha. so dont take offense to it. its just a joke. :D
I LOVE lyrana SOSOSOSOMUCH and i want to be JUST LIKE HER, so i made my own plan for ruling the world. :D THIS WOMAN IS PSYCHIC: Lyrana: mah s3xu4l b3havia iz 2 fux0r j00 YO, i didnt even finish writing that first sentence up there when she said that to me. what a ho.
OK anyway, So yes according to lyrana's St. Louis Domination Plan, i am of course, part of the inner circle of people who will help dearest Lyrana take over St. Louis. Now what you all DONT know is that i'm a fine actress and i accepted my position with full respect and honor because i, too, have a plan. Only, my plan is much MUCH greater, since instead of taking over St. Louis (because in all honesty, who wants it? ugh.), I WILL BE TAKING OVER ZEE WORLD! MUAAHAHAAHHAH! Since Lyrana is already about 300 years old, and also taking into consideration that she is abnormally tall and tall people live short lives, she will of course need someone to take her position once she kicks the bucket. And who better than.. well.. me? See, in the process of "helping" lyrana with her little pet project, i will be TRAINING MY ARMIES and MAKING MY PLANS and.. STEALING SMALL CHILDREN FROM HOTEL ROOMS TO BRAINWASH THEM INTO LYRANA-HATING FIENDS! In essence, i will already be taking over the world, slowly and steadily. BWHAH!
Ok so like, i need my inner circle and rules too, so they go as follows. PEOPLE WHO WILL HELP ME TAKE OVER THE WORLD AND LOCK LYRANA (that tyrant!) IN A BASEMENT IN NORTH KOREA)
Karla because like, shes got the amazing ability to... do something. Fer serious, kids, that girl can do something like theres NO TOMORROW! Yeah! Go... karla! uh.. kay. bad example. [edit] ok yeah karlas fired. if only for the following exchange: Crazy george hah: i included you in my incomplete-world-domination plans karla: joy Crazy george hah: hahaha karla: what are we taking over? Crazy george hah: ...the world? karla: your block or somethin Crazy george hah: just for that question you're fired. [/edit] Lyrana Even though this whole thing is dedicated to Lyrana's fall and demise, i'm including her because she just made me the best fansign, and she is truly orgasmic fantasmic! :D hahaha Rosey because like lyrana said, her emoness is truly frightening. She can use her frightening emoness plus her ability to scare people with her hippyness to help sway people away from Lyrana. BWAHAH. Dex because.. i dont know. He's around? haha. FINE. because he sucks less than the average person, but he's not nearly as suckless as he thinks he is. I've seen some major suckage coming from dex, especially when it comes to brandon? bwahaha. *maniacal, evil cackle* Kim because she can sway people to the light with her fine taste in music. Besides, shes just likeable. <333 :D She will also be in charge of Nelly's security. Go kick some ass, kim. :D Xeno because he will be my love slave. enough said.
I have more people, but ive forgotten them all? hahaha.
ok. RULES ALL MUST FOLLOW IN ORDER TO NOT BE KILLED ON THE SPOT ONCE I TAKE OVER THE WORLD a. must be literate. I'M SORRY, but i'm sicksicksicksicksick of stupid people. everyone should have to take a literacy test at the age of twelve and if they dont pass, they must be killed. UNLESS they have a mental/learning disability. b. must be DECENT GUESS WHAT, decency is defined in Celisse-Land as not having your stuff all hanging out. WOMEN OF AMERICA, CLOTHING, ITS YOUR FRIEND. I'm not saying that everyone has to go around wearing nun habits and things, i'm just saying that fricken cover up your stuff. you can do WHATEVER THE HELL you want at home, but if you're going out, make sure your ass isnt all hanging out. dayum. men and women not following the Celisse-Land dress code will be fined ONE MILLION DOLLARS. All of which will go to me. No i'm lying. Half of it will go to research for things like Cancer and AIDS. The other half will go to me. :D c. smoking? banned. yeah, i'm in agreement with dex and rosey on this one. Smoking leads to nothing good and should be banned. Anyone caught smoking will be locked up in a small room flooded with tear gas. dont like it? bite me. smoking makes my nose hurt and i dont like when people do it around me. hrmph. d. Suicide is also banned. Anyone who wants to kill themselves will be required to fill out a form. I will then send the proper Celisse-Land authorities to kill them. I dont believe in suicide and i think its a cop out so theres no reason why suicide should not be outlawed in my world. HAH. e. NELLY WILL NOT BE SENT INTO EXILE unlike LYRANA's plan, NELLY will be allowed to live happily in my world. BECAUSE... nellyville is the happiest place on earth? FER REALZ, YO. f. all illegal drugs and all prostitution will be banned. if you wanna have sex, you're doing it for free, ho. If you wanna get high, too damn bad, start your own world. hrmph. g. all convicted rapists will be castrated or be required to undergo a double masectomy.. they will also be locked up in jail for LIFE.
haha. thats all ive got for now. :D <333

i hate Miami Subs restaurants. They are just terrible. If ever anyone of you comes across a Miami Subs restaurant, AVOID IT AT ALL COSTS. Thank you.
I think i did well on my essay this morning. It was a page longer than the minimum, so i didnt go TOO overboard, but i did slack off towards the end since i was rushing to finish. Hopefully i wont get a bad grade. :(
my tummy hurtssss :( BUT i'm like really hyper right now. Bwahah. Rosey and i are talking about bras and defecation, a lovely combination! :D :D :D
I'm sure i should be doing something productive right now. BUT WHAT?! AIM me, hizzoes! :D
Sunday, February 16, 2003
[7:47 PM]
What a horribly boring day. I've done nothing productive besides chores. I absolutely hate weekends. Most eighteen year olds love them. But i HATE being in this house. My mother is driving me absolutely insane and i dont know how much longer i can take it. :(
I still have yet to study for my writing assignment for tomorrow. And i think its stupid that we even HAVE class tomorrow, considering all the other schools here are taking a holiday for Presidents Day.
Feh. This was a pointless post. I have a couple more things to do today. I think i'll be lame and stay up the whole night. I'm gonna burn out soon, i know it. As it is ive not been eating at all lately, and now i'm going to stop sleeping? I dont want to sleep though. I keep having these terrible dreams. :(
This site is fantastic though. The hilarity of the blogs is amazing. haha :D
Anyway, i'm off. I'm going to be on AIM but away, so leave me cheery messages to come back to. <333 :D

[8:53 AM]
Whee so i actually did something for valentines day! Karla was my valentine. Oh how sweet. *barf* Actually, her boyfriend goes to school in a different city and we were bored so we hung out. We went over to the Oasis (and almost got lost, which would have been fun. haha) and hung out. Some band there was playing an ok-cover of pink floyd's "Wish you were Here", which was nice. yeah so then we went to dinner at Hard Rock Cafe. ..which reminds me that karla didnt pay me for her half of that.. THING. haha I had a ceasar salad which was not very good. then we ordered this OBNOXIOUS ASS brownie/ice cream/chocolate thing. Uh.. we ate hardly any of it? I wasnt even hungry dude. So we just mushed it all together and made it look like vomit. ew? haha then we wrote on napkins things like "go larger, increase it by 3 inches!" and on the other side she wrote something about "willy and his gf" (some friend of hers) and we attached the napkin to the big bowl thing that HUGE ASS brownie/ice cream/chocolate thing was in.. with ketchup haha. Then of course i took another napkin and wrote "chalice of pleasure" on it and attached it to the other side. uh. then we just got plain stupid and took spoons and forks from other tables and put them all in the chalice of pleasure. bwahah. we have like.. no maturity? although there were these crap ass kids at the table next to us who were all dancing around like they were cool. and our waitress was a huge ditz? oh well. we had much-needed fun. :D yeah then we went to see How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. It was cute haha. Sappy, predictable, but funny and i liked it. so go me.
karla and i decided that we need like a big group of friends who all like doing the same things we do. Because yeah, we dont know anyone like that. So if you live in Miami and wanna go to the beach or drive me to orlando to see zwan, let us know. haha :D
and i just woke up from having a TERRIBLE dream about my mother becoming a satanist? I think its because shes day-by-day becoming as evil as satan himself? fer serious. *shudder*
hope you all had a nice vday :D
[edit] woo so i promised pictures of the bay two weeks ago and i finally have them. Theyre pretty craptastic since my digicam is so the suck, but oh well :o/ click to enlarge.
Explain why you started to journal/blog. i dont really know. I had a livejournal but i never really used it (i do now though, plug plug. :D). I was just into making websites and things and wanted to have one with a personal blog. Not really for any particular reason other than that.
Do people you interact with day to day or family members know about your journal/blog? Why or why not? God, i hope not. haha just kidding. ;D I know my friend Karla knows the address. Considering i gave it to her the other day. But she's not really into the whole thing so if she reads it more often than she lets on, which i doubt, i dont know about it. I make it a point not to give my mother the address because... yeah i dont want her reading it. and i dont know of anyone else that i know in person who has the address so.. yeah. go me.
Do you have a theme for your journal/blog? Nope. I just ramble on endlessly about my boring life.
What direction would you like to have your journal/blog go in over the next year? Haha i dont even know. Perhaps not be so pathetic?
I skipped class again today :o/ Its that Spring-time lull i think. No one anywhere at this time of year wants to go to school. I need to suck it up and start working hard. My grades as of late have been slacking. I did manage to get a C on my bio test. I'm not ecstatic about it, but ive got two more tests, plus extra credit and a final to help me out, so i'm not TOO worried. I guess my problem is just that i HATE studying, and i have the attention span of a corncob. So i really will set up the table. Notebooks, Paper, Text Books, Laptop, Pencils, Pens, Hi-liters... and i'll sit there and study for 10 minutes TOPS before i get up and find something else to do. I really need to work on that :o/ So the mission of the weekend is: Read and RE-Read that boring ass play, Curse of the Starving Class, because we're having some sort of in-class essay assignment on Monday. I could probably pull off an A blindfolded, but why take chances? Its just reading. *shrug* Plus i really want to get into FSU so i'm gonna have to pull up my GPA just a tiny little more. Just to be safe, you know.
Anyway. Yesterday i was really upset. I mean, not in general, i've been feeling REALLY excellently these past couple of days. Its been great. But with all this talk of war, i've been thinking about a few people i havent heard from lately. Mostly, my friend Marcus. Last i heard, he was in Texas doing basic-training for the air-force. I spoke to him online for like 10 minutes last month, but thats the last i heard from him. Karla told me that this guy we knew from high school is getting shipped off to N. Korea in a couple of months. ugh. I hope everyones ok, you know? Things like this really hit home when people you actually know are involved. It makes me hate president bush even more, despite the fact that i took a quiz which said i'm 58% republican today. :D But seriously, this whole war idea is getting to me. I honestly think its a bad, and stupid idea, getting involved in all of that. Its just not a good idea at all. I told my mother i'm moving to Antartica. Nothing bad ever happens there. Anyone wanna come with? :D
Zwan is coming to Orlando April 8th. Why dont any good bands ever come down past orlando? :( Its like two or three weeks AFTER my spring break, which basically means i have no hope of going, even if i found someone to take me. I will now cry big fat tears. *sob*
But of course on a happier note, Rosey and i are starting a band called Emsay. Bwhahaha :D She's gonna write the songs and play the guitar and i'm gonna be the lead singer with no other musical ability. Dex of course will play the tambourine. :D hahah. We'll be cooler than your moms, people! hahahaha <333 I really need to start writing more. I've got all this creative energy in me but ive got endless writers block. FEH! And my poor site has been slacking on the hits. Is the layout too blue, people!?!? haha.
[edit] I TOTALLY forgot to mention. Frenchie Davis was disqualified from American Idol! *sob*. She was the best one in that whole competition. Sure, she may not have been america's idol based on looks, but that girl can SING! She was disqualified for being affiliated with some porn site! GR. She could have been so great too. Silly old woman. *shrug* [/edit]
Much <333 to you all :D

[6:39 PM]
Today was such a nice day. Yesterday i had like.. a mental breakdown? But then i picked myself up and now i feel great. I do that every now and then. I think it's my brain's way of getting me out of a rut. Anyway, so in all, i decided that i'm not going to let anything, or anyone stand in the way of my getting into FSU and studying film. I found a bunch of scholarships that i could get. So i'm gonna spend the next month or so doing what i can to get money for dorms and stuff.
I ended up not going to Lit today. I woke up this morning at like 6 and couldnt remember if i even had class today or not. So i just rolled back in bed and went back to sleep. That was nice :D Its good to sleep in every now and again. I did go to hospitality though, since we had a quiz. go me? Yeah i ended up getting there twenty minutes late. My professor didnt give a crap. shes so laid back. go her. :D haha. Uh.. i think i failed my quiz though. Or at least got a really bad grade. I dont know what my grade was but she said the highest one was a 85% and the lowest, was a 5%. FIVE percent?! Dude. haha. Whatever, i'm not stressed. I'll do better next time. I still have to decide what my project topic will be. I'm thinking... something relating to cruise ships/lines and what not. Maybe safety? yeah. whatever.
I got home at like 2pm and i just like.. SLEPT from 4 to 6. I was so tired. It felt so great. :D I had like dreams about Almost Famous though, so that was pretty weird. I love that movie :D
Dude. I dont remember who i said this to, but i remember someone saying something about the band Zwan to which i replied "ew?". Well yeah. I totally lied. I hadnt even heard them when i said that. I just said it because i couldnt imagine Billy Corgan without the Smashing Pumpkins. But i gave in and downloaded something of theirs last night. And it was amazing. so i spent the day downloading Zwan songs. And they were all amazing. And i am sitting here, amazed. In amazement. In a state of total and utter amazement. And i think i've got my inspiration for a whole new layout then. <333 go Zwan. :D
Lastly, plugs to Sher (who has a beautiful layout up btw. I love the ocean) and Lindsey who both were nice enough to comment. :D Lindsey's layout is really pretty as well. all kissy-face :D haha

Once I start writing, i cant stop. :o/ I cant make a single sound As the thunder crashes. The lightning Illuminates your face so beautifully.
As we stand in the pouring rain, washing away our fears, I cant help but think: "I dont want this moment to end."
Dont speak. Only your voice can quell The storm.

[2:05 AM]
Wow. I found out today that FIU is gonna do this month-long Creative Writing workshop in LONDON. I want to go so badly. Not so much for the learning experience a month of living and breathing writing will give me (because in all honestly, i know how to write and while theres always room for improvement, i dont like writing enough to pursue it as a career), but mostly because it will get me out of Miami. Do you know what i could do in London? Neither do i, thats why i want to find out! The only problem is that the trip itself is $3700 and i would need another $2000 or so for expenses. Thats nearly $6000 that i just dont have. I'm gonna try to apply for scholarships and grants and things, but i dont know that i'll get anything. I really really really want to go. Hrm. Anyone wanna donate?!!?! :D Anyway, as far as writing is concerned, i've been thinking a lot about writing a screenplay for my story The Number. I'd love to finish it off (with a new ending, because no one really likes it, including me) and submit it to contests and things. Get my foot through the doors of the film industry. Woo! :D
Question of the Day Whats the weirdest dream you've ever had?
Ive had so many fricken weird dreams. Honestly. I guess recently the weirdest one was where i was in this mall, but the mall was all like.. techno-ified. It was.... strange. Anyway i kept going to these stores, but the stores were paying me money. Go me, thats fantastic. The dream kinda went off the edge towards the end though. All i remember was that i was in an IMAX Theater watching the Lion King haha. uh.. yeah. weird.
I can see the heavens in your eyes. And the vision is burned into my retinas like a thousand solar eclipses. And in all history, no such sight has been beheld as magnanimous as the heavens emanating from your core.
1. What did you have for breakfast this morning? If you didn't have breakfast, why not? Uh, no. I never eat breakfast. I havent had a proper sit-down morning breakfast before school since i was like six. *shrug*
3. How often do you eat out? Do you want that to change? Not very often. Like 1-2 times a month, max. And i dont really care either way so right. heh.
4. What do you plan on having for dinner tonight? Got a recipe for that? I already had dinner, and yeah. It was some Salad and Chicken that my mommy brought home.
5. What's your favorite restaurant? Why? I love the Olive Garden. They just have the best food there. And the greatest bread sticks in all humanity. Go them. I also like the Longhorn every now and then, since i'm not a big steak eater. Even when i do go there i usually get a salad of some sort. haha. :D

What a boring day. Its absolutely horrific outside. And woofie just came into my room and demanded that i pet him. Bossy dog. Anyway, Its been overcast and drizzling all day. Which has of course resulted in a mass of horrible frizzed fuzz that resembles hair on my head. Rain can just DIE. Class was boring as always. We finished watching Curse of the Starving Class in Lit. Analysis. That movie is so boring. Its with Kathy Bates and James Woods. And Good Lord there was a James Woods NUDE scene! I saw entirely too much of that man today. And 3 weeks ago i saw ENTIRELY too much of Kathy Bates in About Schmidt. *sob* Haha that reminds me of in 7th grade at DCS where there was a nude statue in a movie we were watching and Ms. Lois covered the television with her sweater. :D Ok so yeah. Then i went off to Hospitality. My teacher didnt even come to class. If i had known she wasnt going to be there, i wouldnt have gone. But instead i sat through the most boring speaker we've had so far. He was nice enough. Pretty funny too, but good God. He didnt tell us anything about the Catering business. He just told us his life history. An hour and 15 minutes of some guy's life history. How enthralling.
American Idol last night. Oh my, i dont think i liked ANYONE. Well thats not entirely true. I did like Bettis, but maybe i'm biased since hes from Miami. Simon told him that he basically blew all his chances. I didnt think he did that badly! I just think he chose an absolutely horrible song. The guy who is like the relative of a president or whatever, i forget his name, i liked him too. Everyone else really didnt do very well but whatever. I didnt even vote haha. go me! :D
Tomorrow i have a huge Human Biology test. Wish me luck! I really need to study and get to it. feh.
Nat has a beautiful new layout up. I love little compact layouts. :D
And something to entertain you all :D Lords of the Rhymes haha. its hysterical :D

Karla's going to do an internship in San Francisco. Isnt that amazing? Feh. I want to go :( I am honestly aching to leave this city. Nothing will ever happen for me if i stay. I've decided for sure, i'm changing my major. I'm not exactly sure to what yet but it is definitely going to be in the film industry. Which means ive come to another big decision. I'm going to apply for a transfer to FSU. I'd rather get out of Florida all together, but at least FSU has the best film program in the state. I havent told my mother, and i dont want to. If i tell her, shes only going to gult trip me and give me 482938492 reasons why i should stay here. With her. Shes suffocating me. She has to let me go but she wont. She's holding me back. I dont want to become who she is. I've lived here my entire life. I've taken care of her for most of my life. She can take care of herself now. Shes not sick anymore. She needs to let me live my life.

BOYS OF SUMMER coming june 2003 "i can tell you my love for you must still be strong after the boys of summer have gone.."
Ayeeeeee I just tripped and fell in my bedroom and hurt my shoulder on the corner of the door! le sob. Ah oh well. Anyway it is past 2pm and i just woke up last hour. ?! I ended up staying up all night and finally going to sleep at like 9am so my mom figured she'd just.. let me sleep. Now i feel as if the whole day has passed me by.
Rosey just got a Livejournal. FINALLY. I had to find her a code from someone. Now shes trying to figure out how it works and all the features and i'm going to kick her soon. Silly girl. Feh i have dumb classes tomorrow. Lit. Analysis and Hospitality. Last session, my Literary teacher got all angry with us since none of us had done the reading. She was really upset but hey, we got to leave class a good half hour early because of it. :D I STILL have not done the reading but Sam Shepard is so boring. Honestly. I dont know how i'll ever write a huge research paper on him. *snore* My puppies are so cute. Theyre outside lying in the sun all licking eachother. :D :D :D I should take pictures of them so everyone can see my babies. :D
Movies: I watched Almost Famous (psh Dex. :D :D :D) for the 4729237372nd time last night. I love that movie. Haha does anyone catch the part where the plane is gonna crash and Russell starts singing "Peggy Sue, Peggy Sue, Pretty pretty pretty pretty peggy sue." by Buddy Holly? Hahaha that cracks me up. I wonder how many younger people catch that joke :D Also, ever try watching a movie with the sub-titles on? There were so many lines i never caught before. There were some really funny lines. <333 Almost Famous :D I also watched some weird ass movie called 9 1/2 Weeks last night. What the fuh is that about? Its practically poooorn. ew. But now i'm all confused since i didnt see the beginning and i got bored with it before it finished so i dont know what the hell was the point of it. *shrug*
Thanks to Nat and Namfon and everyone who said stuff about the new layout. I really like it a lot so hopefully i wont get bored with it soon. :D :D
"HOUSTON, Texas (CNN) -- In a shower of flaming debris, the space shuttle Columbia, with its seven-member crew, shattered about 38 miles over east Texas Saturday morning as it headed toward Kennedy Space Center in Florida to land.
All seven aboard -- six Americans and Israel's first astronaut -- are presumed dead.
Flags at the White House and outside NASA headquarters were lowered to half staff in tribute to the crew. "
Rest in Peace.
