Editing a video

Luli and I made a video yesterday with the help of Mariah... Currantly editing it as we speak... got some awesome sound effects from Royalty Free Music and Sound Effects Download the music and sound effects you need for your multimedia project today at Partners In Rhyme.

Mother's Day

She liked her dying rose. =)

(Yes, it is in a water bottle... and it is still alive today!)

Shopping experiences...

This car was in the parking lot at the mall... clever eh?

Yeah...

Isn't she marvelous?

Adventures in the Rio Grande

Yeah... so the river was flooded and our usual path was inaccessible. So we decided to make our own path, and we got stuck... we had to fight our way out. Haha we got out after about, 10 minutes... What can I say, we are thrill seekers!

..And we were well equipped with route 44, thirst quenching drinks from Sonic... =)

Chez Nous

My awesome friend Gabby invited me to lunch last Thursday.

Gabby

Mesclun Greens in a hand crafted Parmesan basket

...I'm not sure...

Roasted pork with a shallot parsley sauce, garlic mashed potatoes, and ratatouille

Trifle with raspberry sauce

Twas grand! And for only $8! 

Burger King is a disgrace...

So, I ordered the "onion rings" at Burger King and this is what I recieved:

..how could they even attempt to pass this off as an onion ring?! 

I think I will stick with Sonic and their amazing REAL onion rings... =)

Take care.

School lunch...

..has gotten worse. So we were suppose to have shredded "barbecue chicken", yet I think I got half of the chicken... haha oh well, at least I got a meal, right? =)

Marissa

My 6 yr. old niece has just been diagnosed with MRSA (google it). She stayed in the hospital for a few days, yet she was well enough to search for cell service around the room to chat with her cousins... 

She was released today and is chillin' at home. She will be on some drugs (antibiotics) for a while... but all is well!

Ah Weck's...

..you make my stomach smile..

for about, 10 minutes... =)

..then it is all down hill from there..

haha

Ah, the wondrous products of Jackalope...

..I went to Jackalope today with my grandparents..

That place is full of odd things from various places around the world...

Here are a few things I found along my journey in to the unknown abyss of awkwardness:

Good to know.

...instant Irish accent mouth spray...

intriguing.

..I'm just not sure..

my favorite, classic bug on a key chain.

Awe... Delish.

Santiago is in the culinary arts class. He made some Easter chocolate and gave me this wee little bunny. It was cute, and best of all it was rather scrumptious! 

Ah Environmental Science class...

So... a couple of guys in my Environmental class were suppose to  dig a 18in by 18in hole for a rose bush. This is what we wound up with:

A hole that was about 3 feet deep and who knows how wide.

Awesome.

"All Fool's Day"

According to my calender, today is not April Fool's day, it is "All Fool's Day".

..It's a little hard to see, yet if you back up a little from the screen, it is more visible.

..interesting, eh?

Dions =/

OK. My mom and I were standing in line at Dion's, waiting to order. I decided to try a new gourmet pizza. I usually get the Duke City, yet wanted to try the Tuscany. We get up to the register and here is a basic synopsis of the conversation:

Cashier: Hi, what can I get you?

Me: ...Can I get a slice of the Tuscany pizza, please?

Cashier: Um... the Tuscany? (turns around to look at the board)

Me: Yes...

Cashier: Yeah... we have this thing about only having four toppings per pizza....

Me: ....OK?

Cashier: Well, the Tuscany has six toppings... You can pick four of your favorite toppings from the Tuscany...

Me: ...alright? Um... can I get the pesto...

Cashier: OK, so you want the pesto instead of the marinara?

Me: ..yes.

Cashier: OK.

Me: ...and the provolone, Parmesan, artichoke hearts.... and the pine nuts?

Cashier: OK. Well, technically the cheese does not count as a topping, so you can pick like two more toppings.

(Just to inform you, the Tuscany has the following: Pesto, provolone, artichoke hearts, pine nuts, sun dried tomatoes and Parmesan cheese. I already picked 5 of the 6 things. and she tells me I can pick "like two more toppings." Yet by this point, I was extremely annoyed.) 

Me: You know what, I'll just go with what I picked. Thanks.

AHHHHH!!!!!!

She says I cannot have more than 4 toppings, then after I pick the 4 toppings, she decides that the cheese does not count as a topping. Therefor, I am able to pick "like two more toppings."

...WHY DIDN'T SHE JUST LET ME ORDER THE TUSCANY AND BE DONE WITH IT?!?

AHHHHH!

Any way.... I ended up with a pretty good slice of pizza, minus the sun dried tomatoes:

..I just REALLY hope that I do NOT get her as my cashier. Ever. Again. =/

...yet my mom had no problem ordering her ham and Swiss sandwich. So all was well. =)

Brand Names

So... while I was in the bathroom at Dions today, I noticed that the toilet paper holder had a certain brand name:

...I didn't know Zanios Foods made toilet paper holders...

..did you?

Drug Bust

So, I just experienced a drug bust. In my computer class. Right next to me. About 5 minutes ago.
It was interesting...
Love this school. Absolutely love it.
=/
Now I'm off to a poetry slam to hear a bunch of students complain about life and the crazy thoughts they have.
Woo whoo!
..and how is your day going?

Don't drop 'The F Bomb' around me

The F Bomb
It makes the person saying it sound extremely trashy and uneducated.

All other swear words
I highly dislike when people swear. It is disgusting, especially when every other word is a swear word. It makes me want to smack the person upside the head with a Bible. =)

Well, it is not a word, yet a phrase: "That's hot"
When people say "that's hot", I become very annoyed. I'm not sure why. Maybe because that is Paris Hilton's signature saying...

Duh
When people say "duh", then motion their hand up to their chest and smack it like a beast (insinuating that you are special ed), I become extremely annoyed. That's about it...

Kayla misses her puppy...

Her dad gave her puppy back to it's previous owners because he "didn't want her anymore."

Goodness... So I miss her... She was so cute and lovable... She just grew on me and yes...

So I made this collage of her face. =)

Click on it to make it bigger, and easier to see.

I finally decided to name her Peach-Fuzz. Yet it was a little too late, eh?

=/

Google Chrome

So, I downloaded the Google Chrome web browser, and this is what comes up when the page cannot be loaded:

It says "Aw, Snap!"

..How cute is that..

My handiness

I am NOT a handy woman. Not even close. I hope to marry a handy man so I won't have to call a plummer or electrician in the future. =)

The Newest Family Member

..do you have any name suggestions?

Hotel drawers...

..interesting..

Mini Cheez-Its

Valentines Day..

Vodka pasta sauce

Free ride?!

Dc and I were job hunting on Friday and this was posted in the window of one of the stores:

Pet Land

Dc and I went to Pet Land the other day. We saw some very cute dogs:

(Dc's favorite)

This little one kept licking the glass.

Same one as above

Little guy...

Yup.

If we had like $500, we would have gotten one.

Genghis Grill

I was at Ganghis Grill the other night with my family. Amazing food. Yet one small thing caught my attention and I was drawn to the situation until it was fixed.

So, this group of people came in and sat at the table/booth area next to us. When they got up to get their food, one of them tossed his jacket on the seat before walking off. I saw it out of the corner of my eye. The jacket was hanging off the seat. Like so:

..and I'm not sure why it bugged me so much, but it did. I had to refrain from scooting over and putting his jacket on the seat. I wanted to, very much so. Yet my mother said not to, because that he might think I was checking the pockets for money and attempting to rob him.

..so I just left it there. ha ha

He soon came back and picked it up off the floor. And I was slightly satisfied.

Marissa ate the dessert that we were suppose to be sharing in under 2 minutes flat.

Then she got a splinter in her finger from the chopsticks and I almost had to take her down like a dog in the street in the restaurant to get it out of her finger.

She refused my help.

..yet no worries. The splinter came out. She didn't like it, but it came out.

Children are fun. Thuper dooper fun.

not.

And my mom thinks my room is a mess...

I went over to my friends house the other day, (I will refrain from using her name to save her from the embarrassment) and this is what I walked into. And her excuse was "I couldn't find anything to wear this morning!" Yeah, OK. I see plenty of things to wear just on the floor alone. ha ha.=)
