Another busy week at school is coming to a close early for me. Tomorrow Joshua and I leave for Manchester Beach for the weekend. We’re meeting up with the rest of his family who has already been there since Tuesday. Their web site claims they have wi-fi so I’m hoping to upload pictures while I’m [...]

The Friday Five ~
1. What drink wakes you up best in the morning?
Coffee is the only thing that wakes me up in the morning.
2. During the day, what do you drink to keep going?
I drink water and sometimes a SoBe Green Tea!
3. Do you drink the recommended 8 glasses of water per day? Why/why not?
I [...]

I didn’t wash my face yesterday morning so when the mail showed up early afternoon containing my ProActive I immediately tried it out. Kind of not a good idea since it states in their little booklet to go slowly with it the first week of use. Of course I didn’t read this until after I [...]

UGH. I totally didn’t sleep well last night thanks to the heat and my cats. I work so hard trying to keep the house nice and cool all day. Then as soon as I start the oven to make dinner around the 5pm hour, it wipes out all my cold air; nevermind that the whole [...]

My new layout is up! It features Keroppi, my #1 favorite Sanrio character. Today he turns 20 years old so I thought it would be neat to have my 20th layout be released for my favorite character’s 20th birthday on his actual birthday. Yup, I’m creative!
I’ve been working on this all day [...]

Today after my chiropractor appointment, I took my mom and sis across the bay for lunch and a little shopping at IKEA. We then went next door to the Bay Street Shopping Center. When driving around the parking garage I couldn’t believe how many cars were there. It seemed too much for a weekday. When [...]

It has been a week now that I’ve been on ProActiv, and I have to say this just might be the end of the road for me acne-wise. I’ve spent the past week overcoming my reactions to Benzoyl Peroxide and now I can see this is the one ingredient that works.
When I first started using [...]

Pardon my language, but fucking people!
Okay, so Friday when I went shopping at Old Navy I got the most adorable dress. I usually have bad luck with dresses thanks to my overly large ta-tas, but that day I was lucky to find a dress that fit.
Well, after working out today I [...]

I really hate Apple right now. Generally I love them for the iPod and AppleTV and iTunes, but right now I hate them for the iPhone. Not only because I can’t get one, but because I can’t even go into the store to buy a plastic sheet protector thingy for my iPod’s screen. Yup, even [...]

The Friday Five ~
1. If you could change one life-changing event in the life of someone important to you, would you?
I believe everything happens for a reason, but I can’t help but wonder if things would be different if my grandpa (Nana’s husband) were still alive. I wonder if Nana would be different, and there [...]

Dear Hollywood,
Thank you for making a good summer of movies! The Dark Knight was awesome!
Love, Cristina

I had a spat with Mervyn’s. Here’s my letter I sent to their customer service headquarters…
To Whom It May Concern:
On July 10th I purchased two pairs of jeans, one of them one size larger than the other. After a week of wearing the larger pair they ended up being way too big for me. I [...]

I thought by taking one sleeping pill would be enough to calm my Sunday night nerves since taking two put me in a comatose-like state last week. Nope, one pill put me made me a zombie in which I had to get a Starbucks Double-Shot to keep me awake in Math today. Not only that, [...]

Want to know how lame people are in my area? People seriously have way too much time down here I swear. SO, on my way up to my hometown on Thursday my dad calls me up and asks, “Is your car blowing smoke?” I check my rear-view mirror and reply, “Uh… no I don’t think [...]

I love my cats, but man I hate it when Izzie catches birds. Bella can’t catch anything except bugs, but Izzie is the hunter. Today she caught what I believe to be a baby sparrow. It caused a big commotion with the birds out in front of my house, so luckily I was able to [...]

The Friday Five ~
1. What type of hair do you have? (Thin, Normal, Thick, Frizzy, etc.)
I have very thin hair. It makes it so frustrating to style, especially since it lacks volume.
2. What color is your hair currently?
I just colored it last night to my natural color. A few months ago I lightened it slightly [...]

Even though I didn’t get to have my friends at my house for a party I was still able to see a handful of them up at Sugarloaf. In addition to seeing old friends, I also saw old enemies. Morgan the Evil was choir assistant so when I went over to say hello to my [...]

Sometimes I feel like because I moved on from certain activities, hobbies, interests, etc. that people want nothing to do with me anymore. I felt this way when I left band senior year in high school, and now I’m feeling this way because I never came back to Sugarloaf to be a counselor. I don’t [...]
