Friday, September 30, 2005 ( 10:41 PM ) shut up christine i think when someone is trying to look good of course they want to put their best forward resume, hair did, nice clothes, nice car, pick-up lines, crest white smile impress, impress, impress and when someone crumples up in front of you and flaunts their flaws out in the open when they start bawling and the snot drips down their face they’re beautiful without trying life is ironic, no? p.s. painting is fun p.p.s. Joseph Feliciano where are you now # Tuesday, September 27, 2005 ( 9:54 PM ) shut up christine oh dear i borrowed a book at the library called 365 More Surprising Scientific Facts, Breakthroughs, and Discoveries and i came upon this: "In the condition 'uncombable hair syndrome,' the hair suddenly tangles like felt. Damaged surface scales on the hairs stick out and lock the strands together. Most 'feltings' follow vigorous shampoos." gasp! i vow to change my old ways # ( 3:08 AM ) shut up christine the last time i saw the best friend, i got lost on the freeway, twice, and he waited on the curb at the airport and gave me directions over the phone then after we got breakfast we went up the escalator and found seats in front of a big window that took up the whole wall and we just sat there and watched airplanes for an hour hands down i think that was my favorite way to waste an hour # Friday, September 23, 2005 ( 3:56 PM ) shut up christine aw man i have NO game! to any future guys out there who think i'm not interested, it's not that i don't like you! its just that i get really really nervous and i don't know what to say! if our conversations are awkward, take that as a good sign! awkward silences are my way of hollering back at you # Wednesday, September 21, 2005 ( 6:36 PM ) shut up christine looks like someone from the Kohl's management team is benefitting from diversity training. props to Kohl's, i'd like to see other department stores follow suit   Asian mannequins too  i just thought this was cool in general  and my parents found baby kiwis at costco! how cute that is all # Monday, September 19, 2005 ( 1:57 PM ) shut up christine over the weeked i camped at a buddhist monastery to listen to Thich Nhat Hahn interesting things: first thing i noticed - all the monks and nuns looked so young! glowing faces with hardly any wrinkles. i could not believe that one of the sisters was 71 yrs old, she looked like she was maybe 40 whenever a bell rang, everyone completely froze, just like Evie in Out Of This World when she touched her index fingers together. this is to remind you to live in the present moment breakfast, lunch, and part of dinner were eaten in complete silence, and chewing is done slowly and mindfully so that you appreciate every bite of food and all the love and care that went into growing and preparing the meal in front of you when monks and nuns shave their heads, its an act of revolution. they give up their hair, a symbol of outer beauty, and instead decorate themselves with peace and mindfullness. and i had a heart-to-heart with a monk and he made me bawl my eyes out during dinner, but in a good way. good lectures, good conversations, good people, good food, good times p.s. happy belated birthdays to Gabe and Unji and Phuong and Tim!! p.p.s. Susanna Khalil where are you now # Sunday, September 11, 2005 ( 8:15 PM ) shut up christine can somebody please tell my parents that I am fully capable of operating motor vehicles after the sun has set? my driving abilities will not significantly deteriorate after 8pm! i promise! poop. on a completely un-related note, i may scoff at Build-A-Bear and Color-Me-Mine and anything related to Nicholas Sparks (hissss!) but in all reality i WANT to be swept off my feet! this is not a plea for flowers (they die) or stuffed animals (useless!) or gifts of monetary value (not impressed) or whispers of sweet nothings (blahblah empty words) what i want is someone who is just as genuinely happy to see me/be with me as I with them... it doesn't even have to be a 'why do birds suddenly appear every time she is near' type feeling it's not even the kind of thing you have to say out loud... you just know, like when you're talking to someone on the phone and you can tell they're smiling cause its in their voice...i forget what movie that's from genuine. substance. and of course he must think i'm the most amazing thing to ever walk this planet but that is a given. haha anyhooo this is not directed at anyone. i'm jus sayin, ya know? can this post have any more estrogen?? p.s. Does anyone else watch That's So Raven on the Disney Channel? HILARITY! The caliber of acting is absolutely superb! bravo! # Saturday, September 10, 2005 ( 9:57 AM ) shut up christine it's a beautiful thing when centers have to temporarily turn helpers away because there are already too many donations and too many volunteers an even BIGGER flood is going to hit the South in the upcoming months. Floods always come in twos... first comes the water, then comes the outpouring of love, support, and generosity if you thought Hurricane Katrina was powerful, you haven't seen anything keep the donations coming the storm isn't over yet Too much of a good thing can be wonderful. -Mae West # |
