It seems like a lot has happened since the last time I posted, and seeing as I don't actually remember when that was, c'est la vie! John just visited from Tuesday through Friday, which was awesome! I hadn't seen him in over a year (we decided that Brian's wedding must have been the last time we saw each other). And I got in a nice fill of gaming ( Read more... )

I hate stupid TV reporters. TV news in general disgusts me because it's all about the ratings. My current beef is with one of the local ABC reporters coverage of a press conference with the secretary of FEMA. Now, this reporter, I'm sorry, I don't know her name but she's the Asian one, has been looking like an idiot in a lot of the press ( Read more... )

I figured I should post. Hurricane Ike came and went. We lost power for about 12 hours. It's back on, and cable was restored a few hours later. We were lucky, our house didn't have any damange aside from a minor leak. I wish everyone had been so lucky... In our neighborhood there are a lot of missing shingles on houses and subsequent water ( Read more... )

In case you have not heard, Rachael Ray appeared in an online ad for Dunkin' Donuts. No big deal right? Wrong. The ad has been pulled from the air. Why? Rachael Ray's scarf. Apparently some of the ultra right wing and some of the ultra Christians took offense to Ray's scarf. How can a scarf be offensive? Apparently her black-and-white fringed ( Read more... )

I hate how it's always the stupid things in life that are frustrating. I need to start applying for jobs. I don't even know where I want to live. Different places have perks. Some the agency/jobs I want. Some the weather. Some the city/state. Some the people. None seem to have all of the above. But I guess it doesn't matter. A job is a job ( Read more... )

I went to Austin Friday afternoon with my aunt for my cousin's bday dinner (she wanted company on the drive). We came back Saturday morning. While tipsy/drunk, my aunt told me I look just like Julia Roberts. Mainly referring to my smile. In Columbia one of the girls says I remind her a ton of Julia Stiles. Then way back in 8th grade (I looked ( Read more... )

It's nice to be home in the warmth! That being said, I do miss sleeping in a cool, pitch black room. My room is bright early in the morning and HOT. Yay sun. Still not feeling 100% -- my nausea has switched to upset stomach. Oh boy! My parents woke me up at probably 3:30 am when they were leaving for the airport this morning... So house to ( Read more... )

1 lab manual. That's all that stands in my way of being done.

I love the warm weather in this great state!

I can't wait to get through the last part of my drive tomorrow and see my parents!

Trying to keep my mind at bay.

I watched the movie The Holiday today. My sister and Katie told me it was really good, along with some people at church (whom I borrowed the movie from). Sheena had commented that the Kate Winslet story was kinda like Levi & I. So I had to watch it to figure out what she meant. And she was right. The movie was good. I liked the fact that the ( Read more... )
