last year’s resolutions:

* get out of bed when my alarm goes off – FAILED
* be early more often than late – FAILED nice try though
* do one thing everyday that scares me – I THINK I DID OK
* not buy books at thrift stores no matter how cheap they are until I finish the ones I’ve already bought - FAILED
* try not to shampoo more than twice in one shower – FAILED FAILED FAILED
* use my cookbook more often – WHAT COOKBOOK?
* drink more water – WHAT KIND OF RESOLUTION WAS THAT?
* donate blood – TRIED AND DENIED not enough iron
* allow myself only three caramel frappuccinos per quarter – DRANK PEPPERMINT MOCHAS INSTEAD HAH
* start saving money so I can travel – YEA GOOD JOB


This year I only have one resolution…

my sister has this huge fancy schmancy wooden jewelry box, its more like a mahogany chest of drawers with velvety lining and freakin doors that swing open
she keeps all her expensive real stuff in it… so pretty and shiny

and then there’s me I keep my jewelry in a ceramic purple cow shaped cup that I got at Sea Palace..i think it’s a dish for soy sauce
all my jewelry is plastic, silver, or henna
and I look in the mirror and dude, one of my earrings is brown
they’re supposed to be silver but one has rusted heeeeee its okay though because I got them in Spain at H&M and they’re my favorite

don’t know where I was trying to go with this jewelry analogy but my new year resolution is to stop comparing
we’re like peas and carrots, two different flavors that go together
personally I like peas better hehheh

I know I’m not my sister and that’s okay because we both ROCK :) as corny as that sounds
I think sometimes she’s proud of me too

and she wants to follow me around the world hopefully she will go with me to Nepal
hmmmmm I don’t know if she can hang though…we’ll see haha
I think it’ll be fun :)

Happy New Year

ps hey thanks if you called or worried about me i came back a long time ago. thanks
help tsunami victims

en ce monde je suis perdu

brian ferrer's profile reads life will change in six months.
how true

when i can't sleep at night i like clicking on the little next blog>> button in the top right hand corner
i could read about the lives of random strangers for daaayyys
people are so interesting
my favorites folder is so long now
and there are a few people i've been following for years
i get attached and i care about them as if they were my friends
maybe i should get out more?
maybe this is why my dad keeps asking me if i meet up with men from the internet
i don't, by the way hmmph
but earlier this month i came across the blog of a girl named Jen
she's currently in Bulgaria doing the peace corps
and i've followed her blog because i was thinking about doing the peace corps also

she wrote an entry titled
The Great Things We Don't Consider
and i'm going to cut and paste some of it here i hope she doesn't mind

"In the process of living abroad you get used to the bigger things: the language, the ridiculously small grocery stores, the living arrangements, even the rhythm. It's the small things you really get hit by: the steepness of curbs, the way people laugh, the smell of the morning. What I miss from the States aren't the large things: the mobility (both economic and physical), the transparency in politics, the abundant diversity. I do miss them, but what I miss the most is the consistency. Your apartment will be heated, the appliances will work, the fuses won't be blown when you try to utilize more than one room at at time. It's the same with people too. When I think about the people I miss from the States I can think about all their traits and all the great things they shared with me, but what I miss is voices and smiles and laughs. I never thought about those things. They were just always there. I've noticed that I've become guilty of the same thing here too. Good things - and the good people who come with them - are easy to overlook. They're consistent - ever present in every way. They're so me that I've stopped considering them. Stopped appreciating. Stopped enjoying. And that's a big part of life's joy, I think, finding those things that bring you joy and really allowing it to fill you."

here's her link
woah what is going on, this week i've made so many life-changing decisions...months of planning have been erased because one or two ideas were planted into my head...if you pull one tiny link the whole fence falls down
funny how things work out
needless to say, i don't think i'll be turning in my application for the peace corps anymore sorry Phuong
i'm so lost someone tell me what to do

holeee crap
i just pooped in my pants
diarrhea styles
i was about to start typing when it happened
grrrrosss
you know what would be more gross?
if i pooped here and just kept typing heheh
some people find that sexy, no?
luckily this is my sister's chair so whoooo cares this is payback for all the times when she farted HELLLA LOUD at Target and then blamed it on me
her farts are the worst they're the kind that paralyze the victim's body then choke you from the inside...and if you can manage to run away screaming the stench of death lingers in your nose for days

anyhoot
I am not feeling too well at the moment
headache and a little fever mixed with a dash of explosive diarrhea
I was going to post some pictures of Thailand but perhaps at another time
the trip was lovely
luckily i didn't have any bad encounters except for one shady cab driver but even then it wasn't too bad
oh yes and on my flight back home this old guy sitting next to me on the plane was freakin stroking his peener underneath his blanket freakin sicko
thank goodness there was an empty seat between us
i kept glancing over to make sure it was really happening....maybe he was just itchy
but i'm 99.9% positive he was jacking off
dirty bastard didn't even wash his hands after

i didn't ride my elephant
i got there and los elefantes looked sad
and the trainers made them dance to Ace of Base
i like Ace of Base, but that aint right
it just aint right

anyway my trip to Thailand was probably a lot like....... going to Disneyland by yourself
even if it's the happiest place on earth, even if you're having a great time, you're still alone
the whole time i kept thinking i bet my sis would've wanted to be here or i wish my parents could see this

this one time i was walking through one particular section of a busy vegetable market and i got this uncomfortable feeling that everyone was staring...and i don't think its because i looked so different since everyone i met thought i was thai and i was wearing a t-shirt and jeans like everyone else... then some boys started taking pictures i knew they were harmless but it was weird...i guess i just felt a little out of place and it would've been nice if there had been a familiar face around...

got me thinking about a few things
i thought i wanted to move away after graduation to see if i could make it on my own
that's a big deal to me, especially since i only started wiping my own butt a year ago
i thought i needed this
i thought i wanted to leave stability and security to become indepent and to gain experience that i can't get here
but is being independent worth being alone
these are two different things
hmmm if i had a beard i would be stroking it now
all this thinking is making my diarrhea worse

peace out
pictures will come soon

it was bound to happen sooner or later...

more than a year ago I hit a rock, flew off my longboard, landed on my face, and broke off a piece of plastic on my new pair of glasses (the ones I had just bought to replace my other broken glasses)
and so for more than a year I've been holding these glasses together with a little bit of black tape, and most people can't tell they're broken except for the fact that they're crooked all the time

but I finally lost the leg to my glasses, can't find it anywhere :(

flaws will be my downfall

infamous for taking ridiculously long showers. have been known to vigorously shampoo to the point where my arms hurt and I must take breaks. rinse repeat

can’t look at pictures of my sis for long periods of time because I’ll want to punch someone. in the face.

whoever says math is fun is a liarrrr.

i am not, and will never be, a morning person. will set five alarm clocks placed in several locations around the room. will unconsciously shut off each alarm as it goes off, then return to sleep. will claim that none of my alarm clocks work.

chronically late. usually because I won’t hear my alarm clocks or because I take ridiculously long showers.

xanga, blogger, livejournal, whatever. can’t stop reading other peoples’ stories. quite possibly my most favorite thing to do in the world…damn youuuu

been known to take obscenely large shits. won’t even attempt to describe how ginormous because most humans cannot comprehend. however, I will say that I've almost passed out on several occasions, and at times I’ve needed to bite down on a towel to keep from screaming obscenities

have bought and keep buying waaaay too many books at thrift stores and sidewalk sales because they’re cheap, even though I will probably never read them.

posess a hyperactive imagination. easily distracted. self-professed daydreamer and professional procrastinator. currently thinking about:
- leaving for Thailand in five days
- pondering what to do after I graduate
- smelling and hugging my newly washed blanket
- hoping that freshmen ressies actually read my monthly newsletter
- staring at postcards on my wall (see picture above)
- picking at the gross scab on my elbow
- wondering what j is doing… "inheritably" heee
- trying to resist the urge to reorganize my desk
- writing this stupid list instead of working on a 15 page paper + lit review on the socialization of children in the jewish reconstructionist community. hurrah

Yay I’m screwed! Good luck on finals!
