First day of the spring '06 semester was good. The start was pretty slow. But the classes got better! Ceramics! and! I got to have lunch with friends! Some things are better when you're with friends. All my classes are going to be tough. I can just feel it. I feel it in my fingers, I feel it in my toes... Even ceramics won't be a breeze. These core ad classes are more than I expected.

Shall I post an old picture? I SHALL!
I need a new backpack. The zipper-pulling-thing fell off. I have nothing to pull my zipper with.
Aw, poo

I'm so excited! A new semester begins tomorrow! I get to see friends and meet new people. Ceramics is going to be a blast! But the question is, can I survive 8AM to 6:45PM? Man, that's alot of school. Those ad classes are going to kill me. Do I have to pack a lunch? Should I buy a lunch box!? nono a paper bag will do. Maybe I should take the Gameboy to school.
I can't believe I'm blogging when I should be sleeping. The things I do for my readers...
Where do they sell fresh flowers for a good price? My vase looks quite lonesome right now.
I need to go somewhere so I can try out my new heels. I haven't worn heels in a quite some time. Maybe...it's time.
Look at this guy who ate an In-n-Out 100x100. That's a heartstopper. If you need an ecampus.com coupon, I have the code. You need it? | posted by gina, 12:37 AM | 1 comments |

I'm just happy I'm home and in my pajamas. (Hey, my nose isn't bleeding anymore!)
So..

I don't feel like doing much right now. It feels like my brain is sloshing around in my skull. (Did you know that the brain can't feel any pain? During brain surgery, the patient is usually awake. ugh. creepy.)

Will buying the Kodak P880 make me less of photographer, and will other photographers shun me for my choice of camera? I guess I have more researching to do. No. I don't. If this is the camera that I feel is right for my level, then it is. Ugh, I hate battling with myself in my head.
This list is hilarious! I stole it from a friend's blog.
Top 30 Chuck Norris Facts.
1. Chuck Norris' tears cure cancer. Too bad he has never cried.
2. When Chuck Norris plays Oregon Trail his family does not die from cholera or dysentery, but rather roundhouse kicks to the face. He also requires no wagon, since he carries the oxen, axels, and buffalo meat on his back. He always makes it to Oregon before you.
3. Rather than being birthed like a normal child, Chuck Norris instead decided to punch his way out of his mother's womb. Shortly thereafter he grew a beard.
4. Chuck Norris recently had the idea to sell his urine as a canned beverage. We know this beverage as Red Bull.
5. Chuck Norris built a time machine and went back in time to stop the JFK assassination. As Oswald shot, Chuck met all three bullets with his beard, deflecting them. JFK's head exploded out of sheer amazement.
6. Chuck Norris's girlfriend once asked him how much wood a woodchuck could chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood. He then shouted, "HOW DARE YOU RHYME IN THE PRESENCE OF CHUCK NORRIS!" and ripped out her throat. Holding his girlfriend's bloody throat in his hand he bellowed, "Don't fuck with Chuck!" Two years and five months later he realized the irony of this statement and laughed so hard that anyone within a hundred mile radius of the blast went deaf.
7. Chuck Norris sold his soul to the devil for his rugged good looks and unparalleled martial arts ability. Shortly after the transaction was finalized, Chuck roundhouse kicked the devil in the face and took his soul back. The devil, who appreciates irony, couldn't stay mad and admitted he should have seen it coming. They now play poker every second Wednesday of the month.
8. To prove it isn't that big of a deal to beat cancer. Chuck Norris smoked 15 cartons of cigarettes a day for 2 years and aquired 7 different kinds of cancer only to rid them from his body by flexing for 30 minutes. Beat that, Lance Armstrong.
9. The original theme song to the Transformers was actually "Chuck Norris--more than meets the eye, Chuck Norris--robot in disguise," and starred Chuck Norris as a Texas Ranger who defended the earth from drug-dealing Decepticons and could turn into a pick-up. This was far too much awesome for a single show, however, so it was divided.
10. Chuck Norris was the fourth Wiseman. He brought baby Jesus the gift of "beard". Jesus wore it proudly to his dying day. The other Wisemen, jealous of Jesus' obvious gift favoritism, used their combined influence to have Chuck omitted from the Bible. Shortly after all three died of roundhouse kick related deaths.
11. Chuck Norris lives by only one rule: No fat Chicks.
12. When Chuck Norris's wife burned the turkey one Thanksgiving, Chuck said, "Don't worry about it honey," and went into his backyard. He came back five minutes later with a live turkey, ate it whole, and when he threw it up a few seconds later it was fully cooked and came with cranberry sauce. When his wife asked him how he had done it, he gave her a roundhouse kick to the face and said, "Never question Chuck Norris."
13. Chuck Norris once shot a German plane down with his finger, by yelling, "Bang!"
14. A man once asked Chuck Norris if his real name is "Charles". Chuck Norris did not respond, he simply stared at him until he exploded.
15. Chuck Norris does not sleep. He waits.
16. Chuck Norris can make a woman climax by simply pointing at her and saying "booya".
17. Chuck Norris once went to a frat party, and proceeded to roundhouse every popped collar in sight. He then drank three kegs and shit on their floor, just because he's Chuck Norris.
18. Before each filming of Walker: Texas Ranger, Chuck Norris is injected with five times the lethal dose of elephant tranquilzer. This is, of course, to limit his strength and mobility, in an attempt to lower the fatality rate of the actors he fights.
19. Chuck Norris took my virginity, and he will sure as hell take yours. If you're thinking to yourself, "That's impossible, I already lost my virginity.", then you are dead wrong.
20. Chuck Norris found out about Conan O'Brien's lever that shows clips from "Walker: Texas Ranger" and is working on a way to make it show clips of Norris having sex with Conan's wife.
21. The chief export of Chuck Norris is pain.
22. Chuck Norris doesn't have normal white blood cells like you and I. His have a small black ring around them. This signifies that they are black belts in every form of martial arts and they roundhouse kick the shit out of viruses. That's why Chuck Norris never gets ill.
23. Chuck Norris frequently signs up for beginner karate classes, just so he can "accidentally" beat the shit out of little kids.
24. Chuck Norris once tried to sue Burger King after they refused to put razor wire in his Whopper Jr., insisting that that actually is "his" way.
25. One of the greatest cover-ups of the last century was the fact that Hitler did not commit suicide in his bunker, but was in fact tea-bagged to death by Chuck Norris.
26. Chuck Norris punched a woman in the vagina when she didn't give him exact change.
27. Chuck Norris is currently suing NBC, claiming Law and Order are trademarked names for his left and right legs.
28. After much debate, President Truman decided to drop the atomic bomb on Hiroshima rather than the alternative of sending Chuck Norris. His reasoning? It was more "humane".
29. If you can see Chuck Norris, he can see you. If you can't see Chuck Norris you may be only seconds away from death.
30. Chuck Norris ruins the endings of Harry Potter books for children who just bought one for the hell of it. When they start crying Chuck Norris calmly says, "I'll give you something to cry about," and roundhouse kicks them in the face.

ah...all my curls are going to waste. Stupid windy weather.
Somedays I feel like a magnet for large objects.
And sometimes I just feel like a peach.
Will you go out with me today?

My About a Boy came in today. I bought it for 0.75 cents. Then I had to add $3.25 for shipping. Ah joy.
One of the things that I need within reach is a nail clipper.

I just finished watching that show called Beauty and the Geek. Are those girls really that stupid. I think not. The whole time I was watching it, I was searching for clues as to whether they're really airheads or not. Lo and behold! One girl used the word "formidable"!! And another girl is a dental assistant. How easy can it be to become a dental assistant? I'm guessing you have to be pretty intelligent. I guess these girls are just "stupid" in that they are not informed about society, politics, goverment, that and that, that and this. It's a fairly entertaining show with some interesting guys. Guys who, to me, possess very attractive qualities -- intellect and sincerity.
Moving on. I've realized that I have to put my photographic hobby on hold for a while. Well, at least until I can afford my own. Say, about 6 mths from now. AHHHHHH! I'll just play around with the digital camera for now. What a nightmare. Low quality photos.
You guys have to watch this clip about fish surgery.

My brother made some wonderful Play-Doh figures the other day. They're so awesome! I ordered him the children's PETA kit. Do I dare to show him mine? I think not. This Dannon Orange Mango flavored yogurt is awful. Ugh, it tastes like dishsoap. The kind they use in cafeterias. Not the home kind. It tastes like the standard yellow dishsoap. Not that I've tried dishsoap, but you know what I mean...Just the scent. When I eat the yogurt, the scent of it in my mouth is similar to dishsoap. I guess this means that I'll be writing another letter for a product that I am dissatisfied with. I must be such a corporate nightmare...singing to others my distasteful opinions. When I have strong opinions, I shout them out. Dannon should be expecting my hand-written letter soon. Do not eat the Dannon yogurt that is flavored Orange Mango. DISGUSTING.

I have ruthlessly failed to accomplish my resolution to be nicer. So far, no bueno.
This winter break is shit. The worst. I strongly believe that there is a good reason for this. I will tell you the reason. It is because I had the best winter break last year, and the planets are trying to balance everything out. Everything has to be balanced. No extremes. The toilet paper must roll from the top and hair ties are never mixed with hair pins. | posted by gina, 11:58 PM | 1 comments |

I've been experimenting with a few photos with the photo-editing Picasa software from Google. I took a mediocre photo and made it quite interesting. Look.
NOTE: Google Reader is so hacker status.

Oh, this box of Belgian chocolates by Jean Neuhaus has been heavenly. So delicious. I over-indulged and now it's all gone. All those glorious pralines now resting inside of me. Maybe I should become a chocolatier. The dark chocolates in the box were 52%. Can you imagine biting into a 73% one??? One day I shall have to save up to by a box of those. Chocolate is so rich and the taste just warms you up. Can someone get an addiction to chocolate?
I need to buy some more I Love Lucy dvds. Not the sets. Those are expensive. I buy the 3 or 4 episode dvds from drugstores and swapmeets. I've been noticing that they're all the same dvds with the exact same episodes. No black and white ones. All I can do is wake up before 12 to watch the 2 daily showings.

Deciding on a photographic style is very hard. I've been thinking about just keeping it simple. I like taking photographs that have only one subject or object. No busy backgrounds. I love the sky and its various hues. Maybe I should make the sky the backdrop in all of my photographs. Can you imagine taking potraits of people on the street with the sky in the background?? I'd have to kneel down.
Walgreens used to have this wonderful film deal. Now it's gone. I should have taken advantage

A good suggestion was made today for a photo project idea. Maybe I should document life in my neighborhood. Or Anaheim. No. Anaheim would be too much. It needs to be more specific. Maybe the homeless in Anaheim? That would be spectacular! I could meet new people. And at the same time I would help bring their situation and faces to attention. Though, I don't know how I would approach a homeless person merely to snap some photos. Maybe I could bring them some food at the same time. Yes. That would be nice.
Why can't people in China see Blogger? That's messed.

NOTE TO SELF: Regulate amount of time spent playing puzzle bobble.
I have begun reading The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. So far, it’s an interesting read. I shall write more once I’m done.
On 12-28, the family went on a train trip along the coast. (photos can be seen in the slideshow at the bottom of the site) Our final destination was Hearst Castle. It was a great trip. We stopped by some spectacular beaches on the way. San Simeon, Pico…we also saw some elephant seals!! OhMyGosh they are such big animals! And ugly too.
