Oh 2008.

I'm not one to make resolutions, however, there are a lot of things I'd like to leave in 2008.

I've been thinking the past few days, and I can't keep assuming that things will happen in the "future". This is my life now...and it's passing me by.

There will be less sleep in 2009, but the time that's spent not sleeping won't be spent partying - it will be spent working.

This time last year I was doing the same things I'm doing now. I think I've made minor progress, but it's just that - minor. I have nothing to show for it.

I know I have good ideas, and instead of just talking about them, I need to execute them.

And that's what I'm going to do. :)

That's it I guess.

Hmm..

Does it make me a bad person that I don't like to get cards unless there's money inside them?
And even then, I still don't like getting cards.
They're pointless really - unless they're funny or there's a hand-written message inside.
My mom gives cards for every occasion. I think it's because she likes receiving them.

Happy Kwanzaa.

These guys were making me laugh.






My sister and I carved our tree into this.

Those glasses light up but the camera didn't capture it.


Oh sister.

Aww don't tell my mom.

Mmmmmmmm.....

Something's Wrong With Me.

I never really have crushes on celebrities.
I used to have a crush on Mos Def, but that faded.
Miranda wanted to watch a movie on demand last night, so we put on Pirates of the Caribbean 3. (She owns the first 2)
So we're watching them, and we get to the part where they find Capt Jack Sparrow, and as it turns out, I have a crush on him. I don't usually have a crush on Johnny Depp - but for some reason, I had a crush on him as a dirty, crazy pirate who wears make up and has dreads.
I don't have anything more to say.
Don't tell anyone.

Oh my goodness.

Things are good right now.
I'm focusing on things I want, and actually following through.

Something that's bugging me right now, however, is that there are some people who think they've made a bigger impact on my life than they actually have.
Like I was some lost little puppy who needed to be shown the way...or rather - who needed guidance.
I don't like it when people mistake my niceness/politeness for weakness.
I guess that's something I have to work on.

I think my "detox" will include these people.

Who Throws A Shoe - Honestly?

Oh my goodness - my friend Anna sent out an email today with a link to a great website.

It's pretty funny.

SML All-Class Reunion - I Mean Anna's Birthday!!

I hate that my pictures get all messed up and out of order.
I met up with Anna and a bunch of people last night to celebrate her birthday. :)
We went ice skating at Bryant Park first.
It was warm and raining so the ice was really watery.
We didn't fall though, thank God.
Afterwards we went to the Trailer Park for food and drinks.
Here are some pictures in no particular order.

The Early Bird Gets the Hot Shower.

I've been getting up early just so I can take a room temperature/sometimes hot shower. And I have to be quick - no enjoying the hot water because it only lasts maybe 7-10 minutes.

I was thinking about something today, and I think it has a lot to do with the delicious nachos I had last night at the Trailer Park for Anna's birthday.
I love Cheez Whiz. It's amazing. It's just the right amount of salty, and it doesn't even really taste like cheese. It has it's own taste...but it's so yummy.
