Wednesday, September 27, 2006 ( 8:33 PM ) shut up christine revelations according to Christine. I decided today that I think I would enjoy being a mother. Not anytime soon (oh hells no) but I am hoping that when the time comes, it will be a very happy, exciting time in my life. I have no idea where this is coming from. After lots of careful consideration, I've come up with a list of traits that I find attractive in members of the opposite sex. I will not be revealing the list because this information could be used by assholes for evil. However, I will say that facial hair is not one of my requirements, although it is greatly appreciated. When I grow up, I would like to be Patrick Swayze in the movie To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything! Julie Newmar. This is not an acceptable answer according to my parents, but that doesn't really matter. I am not a bad driver, I just had the wrong eye prescription (it's being fixed). On the other hand, I do have poor depth perception and no sense of direction. But overall, I am not a bad driver. Phew what a relief. Every time I pass the menswear section in a department store, I think about buying a sweater if my favorite part of Nicaragua ever came to visit me in California (which would never happen who am I kidding?) BUT if he ever did (no chance) I would buy him a sweater in case he was cold and stuff. Last but not least, I'm excited for tonight's episode of Project Runway YAY # Sunday, September 24, 2006 ( 11:17 PM ) shut up christine  This is my friend Kuo. Today Kuo and I did a five mile race w00t. This was a really big (huge!) deal to me, mainly because 1) I am lazy, and 2) two months ago I could barely run a mile. Since July 15th, I've done 124.5 miles holeh moleh!! I wanted to give a big thanks to Kuo for making me run practically every night, especially in the beginning when I gave up so easily.  Thanks Kuo :) # Saturday, September 23, 2006 ( 9:30 PM ) shut up christine hooray a few of my fave quotes from the Walk for Hope The meaning of life is to find your gift; the purpose of life is to give it away. -Joy J. Golliver All wars are civil wars, because all men are brothers. -Francois Fenelon The best things in life aren't things -Art Buchwald You make a living by what you get. You make a life by what you give. -Winston Churchill Pursue some path, however narrow and crooked, in which you can walk with love and reverence. -Henry David Thoreau Ever since happiness heard your name, it has been running through the streets trying to find you. -Hafiz But where shall I start? The world is so vast, I shall start with the country I know best, my own. But my country is so very large, I had better start with my town. But my town, too, is large. I had best start with my street. No, my home. No, my family. Never mind, I shall start with myself. -Eliezer Wiesel Do all you can with what you have in the time you have in the place you are. -Nkosi, 12 yr old South African who died of AIDS p.s. Gerson where are you now # Wednesday, September 20, 2006 ( 1:31 PM ) shut up christine I spent the past weekend camping at a peace festival in nor cal with my friend Jason learned some interesting things... (did you know men can breastfeed?!) and I had the opportunity to sit in on lectures given by elders from all over the world here are some of the things they had to say You can enhance your own understanding of God by learning from ALL different religions; respect them as though they were your own. Broaden your perspective, and do not be mislead by people with their own agendas. -Arun Gandhi, grandson of Mahatma Gandhi Voting once every four years does not constitute a democracy. Be bold, and the universe will rise to meet you. Let who you are ring out and resonate in every word, every act. Become your own message; You are the message. - ChoQosh Auh'Ho'Oh, elder of the Seneca and Chumash tribes (I believe she was quoting Crazy Horse) Mayan Prophecies: We have arrived at "The time of no time." The current cycle of the Mayan calendar ends in the year 2012. The world is currently experiencing an increase in natural disasters and war. Global warming will be one of our biggest concerns. The year 2012 is NOT the end of the world, but rather the beginning of a new era, an age of light. We are the generation that will bring about the change. THE PRAYER FOR PEACE (this prayer was synchronized in over 250 locations in 50 countries) We are one global family All colors, all races We dance for peace and the Healing of our Planet Earth Peace for all Nations. Peace for our communities. And Peace within ourselves. As we join together Across the world, Let us connect heart to heart, Through our diversity We recognize unity. Through our compassion We recognize peace. Our love is the power to transform our world Let us send it out... now. interesting, yeah? # Wednesday, September 13, 2006 ( 3:49 AM ) shut up christine I know she won't read this so I can talk all the smack I want hah Right before Lo left Belize to return to California, I wanted to put into words some fill in the blank emotion-ma-bob, so I spent 20+ minutes staring at a computer screen in an internet cafe but all I came up with was something crappy like "I'm gonna miss her." Fast forward to today. I'm reading a book on chakras and auras and such, and I get to the chapter on the fifth chakra - the etheric body. Yadda yadda, it says: The etheric body is like our perfect double; it represents our total and higher potential. Have you ever met someone who has so much "WOW" that a little bit of their "wow" rubs off on you, and you find yourself dreaming bigger and wanting to be the best person you could possibly be, just from hanging out with them? That's Loralei. She's the kind of person who will take me to a city hall meeting.....for fun. She'll invite me to go camping at a buddhist monastery to listen to lectures about ethnicity and peace. She stays up late with me talking about job opportunities, grad school programs, and possible names for my future children (Eve and Elliot, in case you were wondering). Today she said something like "Wow, your first year out of college was filled with so many good experiences." It was, and she was a big part of it. Yes that's all I wanted to say. p.s. Gerson where are you now # Saturday, September 09, 2006 ( 5:11 PM ) shut up christine clips from a late night AIM convo, October 12, 2005 me : i wonder what i'd look like if i had buck teeth me : or a huge gap friend : i would still be your friend me : i need to learn how to lapdance me : i look like a fool when i do it me : sometimes time passes soo slow me : and i feel like nothing much has happenend me : and then one day i let my hair down and my hair is 5 inches longer me : hey i'm soo sorry me : i had to hide me : i had to pretend i was sleeping friend : hahaah i figured so friend : its totally cool me : my mom woke up and if she found me awake she'd be pissed me : she thinks i'm talking to men on the internet me : i have to go tho me : in case she opens my door friend : hahaha friend : okay friend : we sahll talk again soon some things never change :) # Wednesday, September 06, 2006 ( 3:45 AM ) shut up christine ESMERALDA'S PROPHECIES You have been living every day, eating, drinking, sleeping, a little work and a little leisure, day in and day out, month in and month out, year in and year out. Where do you expect it all will end? You have never adopted any plan without shortly afterward discarding it. Because your plans do not immediately mature, instead of striving harder to succeed with them, you let them go and live on and on, with no thought to the future whatsoever. Start right now, plan out your future and work for it. Work, economize, save, and you will win great success. Esmeralda the 25 cent mechanical-fortune-telling machine sounds just like my mom and ex-boyfriend. I am trying to find myself right now, thank you very much. hmm I think Esmeralda needs to STFU that is all # Friday, September 01, 2006 ( 2:45 AM ) shut up christine updates Sometimes my parents go loco on me etc, etc. Amy bought me a mirror for my computer so I can see when my mom is standing behind my desk reading my AIM conversations and emails. But I will humor them until I blow this taco stand, and then I can go buckwild and do something really crazy, like dye my hair brown or become vegetarian. Finally have a job again. Yes. and nooooooo Been consistently going to bed around 8am every morning. Whenever I lie down to sleep, I get crazy urges to do things, like I'll be drifting off and then I'll sit up straight in bed and I MUST do sudoku, or learn sign language. Does this happen to anyone else? and life is really, really good right now. sweet p.s. Angie Zhou where are you now # |
