10 posts from February 2008

I read The Other Boleyn Girl in a week which is quick for me since I had to study for four exams in the same week. But I couldn't put the book down and even when I was studying I would take breaks to read it and I would just be like just a little bit more as I went.

My mom stole it from me when I was done and she showed me up  by reading it in two days.

Let's see

• The sound of silence when I'm home alone
  
• The whipped cream on top of my Starbucks drink
  
• Scruffy celebrity guys in magazines
• Things that are pink
• Conversation Candy Hearts
• Brand new unread books
• Babies
• When restaurants and fast food places have Fanta
• New movie trailers
• Opening new DVDS
• Skipping class to nap
• Warm brownies with Vanilla Ice Cream
• Lunch and a movie with my mom
• Harry Potter calendars
• Veronica and Logan, Nathan and Hayley, Jess and Rory
  
• But probably my most favorite couple is Buffy and Angel
  
• The feeling of relief you feel after finishing Exam
• Eegees flavor of the month
• And trips to visit my brothers

P.S. Ok I've read the Twilight series and I enjoyed them because they were light and easy but I'm wondering if I'm the only one who thinks the character of Bella is THE most whiniest character I have ever read.

Also I'm quite excited about this:

After I lost my TV I could not watch the following: the new episode of Lost, The Simpsons Movie that I got in the mail from Blockbuster, The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, Home Improvement reruns on Nick at Nite, The Today Show, Jay Leno, the nightly news and the episode of Supernatural I taped. I did actually get to watch the episode of Lost because I took over the TV from my mom who was watching something on HGTV. It was kind of maddening though to watch it with her because she asked me question after question during the whole episode like "do you know what that was about?". Of course I know what it was about since I have been watching it for the past three seasons. Anyway Saturday night my mom told me that I should just switch out my broken TV for my old tiny 13' TV that we have in the guest bedroom. So I got this great idea that I could do this by myself and not ask for  help and I unhooked everything from my TV which yeah I can do that but apparently it's not such a good idea for me to pick up a 20" TV on my own because I pulled all the muscles in my back. Then I remembered you lift with your legs not your back. So today I hobbled around like an old person and decided that I should treat myself to some Starbucks after last nights debacle.  Right now I'm sitting on a heating pad, texting Jon continuously and watching the third season of Veronica Mars on my TV that seems minuscule compared to old my one. I swear I have to squint just to see the picture properly.

In short I miss my TV. 

Has anyone read Agatha Christie? I'm wondering if she's worth the read and if there are any specific books I should read by her.

My TV just broke up with me...I'm not really sure what to do with myself now....

I'm beginning to wonder if I'm like the character Bones or Brennan as she is also called. I don't mind the whole dating process but to become emotionally close and dependent on someone kind of makes me want to run in the other direction. I don't think being alone will make me happy so I just have overcome this hurtle. It's just hard.

Also I was thinking about this quote from Order of the Phoenix

"Potter and Chang!" screeched Pansy, to a chorus of snide giggles. "Urgh Chang, I don't think much of your taste... at least Diggory was good-looking!"

Well if Harry looks anything like Daniel Radcliffe then I think Cho's taste is just fine. In my opinion anyway.

and forgot to post it....

Ok I have a sore throat which makes me feel like I'm swallowing a thousand knives and possibly TMJ issues again but I'm not here to talk about that right now. I'm just going to discuss some people who fascinate me in my classes. There are these two guys in my FSHD 200 class that are huge and when I say huge I mean like tall and broad shouldered...essentially football type looking. In fact I think they are football players. My friend Monica who is in the class with me thinks they are unnaturally big and that they are on steroids. Yes we've actually sat and discussed them and WHILE they were sitting in the row in front of us to. But I've thought it over and I think that they aren't...I mean they could be but I also think they are twin brothers since they look like they are related and that they are the same age. So I think they could just be big by genetics.

And WOW my mom gave me some of king throat lozenge that says pain numbing relief on the box. And boy do they mean numbing because my whole mouth feels numb. I also feel a little nauseous right now which would be a continuation of how I felt all of last night. Also I had the weirdest dreams that were a mix of harry potter and snape, going on a cruise to Europe, being stuck up in this train like thing that was about five billion feet above London, and Disneyland.

Anyways on to the next person which is this girl in one of my Friday discussion classes. I always end up sitting next to her and not on purpose either. We usually have to do group work in this class and I always think that I shouldn't sit by her because when we have to do group work she doesn't say anything. Not even like two words and I find it frustrating. Then on this past Friday she was sitting in the hall waiting to go in to the class when I got up there and she was reading this huge book and it was a fantasy novel. So as I was leaving I was like why does this girl bug me (not in a bad way) and then it hit me...she reminds me of me. I to don't talk that much although I'm not really shy and I to will be found reading some large book waiting to get in to my next class.

Now I think I'll go make sure I have something good in my queue at Blockbuster to come to me next and then read Harry Potter before I die or you know pass out from all the cold medicine I had to take.

Take a look at my body
Look at my hands
There's so much here
That I don't understand

Your face saving promises
Whispered like prayers
I don't need them
I don't need them

I've been treated so wrong
I've been treated so long
As if I'm becoming untouchable

Contempt loves the silence
It thrives in the dark
With fine winding tendrils
That strangle the heart

They say that promises
Sweeten the blow
But I don't need them
No, I don't need them

I've been treated so wrong
I've been treated so long
As if I'm becoming untouchable

I'm a slow dying flower
Frost killing hour
The sweet turning sour
And untouchable

O, I need
The darkness
The sweetness
The sadness
The weakness
I need this

I need
A lullaby
A kiss goodnight
Angel sweet
Love of my life
O, I need this

Do you remember the way
That you touched me before
All the trembling sweetness
I loved and adored?

Your face saving promises
Whispered like prayers
I don't need them
No, I don't need them

O, I need
The darkness
The sweetness
The sadness
The weakness
I need this

I need
A lullaby
A kiss goodnight
The angel sweet
Love of my life
I need this

Is it dark enough?
Can you see me?
Do you want me?
Can you reach me?
Or I'm leaving

You better shut your mouth
Hold your breath
Kiss me now you'll catch my death
O, I mean it

Here's one for the ladies:  What's in your handbag right now? 
Submitted by Kadeeae.

My wallet, ipod, lotion, cell phone, two sets of keys, sun glasses, chapstick, asprin, hair ties and clips, a flier for something, visine, check book, brush and my deck to my car so that i may play music.

Sadly I have had Low by Flo Rider(featuring t-pain) stuck in my head since yesterday. I don't just mean the lyrics but also the beat...repeating itself over and over again. I think I'll go bang my head against the wall now.
