on the seventh day...

Tip of the day:
-if you are ever craving gummies, but do not have them in your house frozen raisins work well as a substitute. but if these cravings continue much longer, i highly suggest you consult your local grocery store and purchase actual gummies.

so i was making a "coupon book" for my grandma for christmas. and this is one of the coupons i made. but it got me thinking...coupons such as this should be handed out on a regular basis. it would make simple everyday life that much more enjoyable.

day 5?...i think?

Clearly i have trouble doing something as simple as keeping a daily blog. Good thing i don't have much of a fan base (and that's even overstating it). But if you do actually take the time to read this, i commend you. you are a truly dedicated soul.

well since i haven't updated you on my life here's the short "back-of-a-movie" overview: went to a Christmas party with the fam which was pretty uneventful minus one of the guests got super drunk on wine and was vomming in the bathroom for a good portion of the evening (this was around 7pm mind you). stayed the night at my friends house, where we watched The Real Housewives of Atlanta.... probably the most ghetto thing i have seen in a while. the next day and a half were spent doing the rest (aka all) of my Christmas shopping. basically done now, which is nice.

OHHHH some absolutely FANTASTIC news (i mean for me, it really has nothing to do with you): i got a 4.0 this semester. and yes, i was taking organic chemistry...the hardest effing* class EVER (*keeping it PG for the young ones). you can now be super jealous that you are in the presence of a genius....sorry you can't tell it from my superb writing skills....i'm a science major, not an english major. can't do it all.

my thoughts for the day:
you know what question i really just cannot stand: "what do you want to do when you graduate?" (also asked as: "what do you want to do with your life?") because if i were to answer that question honestly, i would say "what do i WANT to do? i want to do absolutely nothing, make a ton of money, and travel around the world." but of course the person asking the question would just look at you like you were crazy. you're supposed to give the answer that people expect. the answer that is realistic. but i think if people expect the realistic answer of "oh I want to be a lawyer or go to med school or be a real estate agent" then they need to rephrase the way they ask the question. it should be: "what are you aiming to do with your life once you complete the necessary schooling and weigh all the options that will be available to you at that time?" because if you straight up ask me what i WANT to do....it's sure as hell not be in school for a quarter of my life. or have to any kind of hard work to make money. yes i know, i'm lazy and completely unrealistic. but someone's got to do it.

You know what i don't like? Choices.

Yes, choices. They come out of nowhere, constantly attacking you. Stressing you out. Making you need answers, make decisions. Like when putting on a movie, and it asks you- "theatrical or extended version?" and you think 'no, i don't care! Just let me watch the movie!!...But wait... I've never seen the extended version, i wonder what they added, maybe it's better.... Ahh but the theatrical version was too good, i would never change it.'

See how just there, one simple task of getting ready to watch a movie, and you've lost at least five minutes to having to make the decision, to pick between two choices. If they hadn't presented to you at that moment, you wouldn't of had to use or waste brain cells on deciding between the two. They complicate life. Getting in the way at every possible place.

day 2.

i will do my best to keep this as short and sweet as possible. you're welcome.

basically i woke up, made myself some coffee...to which i added skim milk and splenda, the only way to have it. the next few hours were spent slaving away at the chores mother, the slave driver, gave us to do. us referring to me and my brothers. oh i also accomplished the daunting task of unpacking, fairly well i might add.

i then learned how versatile apples can be. i now have more appreciation of them than ever. after the 'apple adventure', i ventured to my computer and for some odd reason opened "paint." lets just say: BEST DECISION EVER. it is my new favorite thing. i put on my ipod (starting with "Who Says" by John Mayer. duh) and just drew whatever came to mind. i have included this lovely drawing for your viewing pleasure:

Yeah i know, pretty great. i hope it's obvious as to what they are. but if you are looking for an explanation as to why/how/or what those three things have in common....I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA. blame it on the apple's influence. but i mean just look at how quality the shading is. that's artistic ability right there folks.

well lets see after this the fam went out to Red Lobster to have dinner and celebrate one of my brother's birthdays. so presh. had some delicious crab legs. once back at home, my mother requested me to make these delightful things called whoopie pies. and if you have never had these, i regret to inform you that you have not really lived. it is like christmas morning in your mouth. please go out and find them. now. get off your computer and head to the nearest grocery store. purchase 2 boxes of chocolate cake mix, 4 eggs, 3/4 cup of oil, and cream cheese frosting. once these ingredients are obtained, mix the cake mix, eggs, and oil together in a large bowl. roll into balls and place on cookie sheet. bake at 350 for 9-10 minutes. take out and place on a cooling rack. once cooled frost bottomside of one cookie and then place another cookie on top of that...basically making a sandwich with the cookies on the outside and frosting in the middle. now put in your mouth and let your taste buds do the talking.

that sums up my day. such an exciting life i lead.

X-MAS break. DaY 1

so this is my first day back at home for good ol' christmas break. basically the greatest time of year. because there is an entire month off from school (and really any brain activity in general), presents from Christmas, Christmas in itself, New Year's EVE (i want to clarify that i only put new year's eve and not new year's day.....because think about it: who actually likes the day of new years? no one. most people spend it severely hungover and extremely hungry or at the gym trying to not break their resolution the very first day. I think the day as a whole just has a lot of pressure put on it. like if you fuck up this day, then you're entire following year is supposedly just...well... just fucked. for lack of a better word).

i apologize for my rambling. back to the point. i want to try and complete some sort of task this christmas break. or have something to show for an entire month of "blobbing" around.....which is where this idea came into play: i am going to keep a "log". think of it as a play-by-play/day-by-day update on my break. don't worry, i'll try to include pictures or something to keep it lively.

now buckle up (or strap in for those of you flying in rockets) and enjoy the ride.
please keep your hands and feet inside the vehicle at all times. no flash photography please.

DAY 1:
enjoyed my 4 hours spent on the airplane. and all the quality people watching gained from being in an airport. airports just have such good vibes. i love them. almost as much as i love cake. or maybe equivalent to my love of cake. whatever, that's clearly off topic. my lovely parents picked me up and we then went to jim n nicks...the GREATEST BBQ PLACE OF ALL TIME. no joke. and i'm a serious bbq fanatic, so you're safe in considering me a credible critic.

after eating the most delicious bbq pulled pork sandwich and cinnamon apples, and enduring the 40 minute car ride home...my day got increasingly uneventful. yeah, i know, hardtobelieve. lets see i can probably put this in list form so as to not cause you any more pain in having to suffer through reading this.

1. met [and fell in love with] the new puppy my family got while i was away at school. thanks family, good to know i'm replaceable.
2. made a quick fridge and pantry inventory check...so as to know what i can eat once boredom sets in
3. picked up little brother from school. clearly all i'm good for is chauffeuring.
4. it just so happened to be 3pm when we got back....so obviously: watched Ellen.
5. made dinner for the fam. oh wait, i'm also a cook. (not chef status yet, but eventually i may get a promotion)
6. helped mom wrap presents for cousins.
7. mom decides she wants 'goodies' in the package we're sending them. guess who got to make chex muddy buddies? yep, yours truly.
8. ate 1/4 of the bag just to be spiteful. Ha!
9. took a bath. mmm how i have missed baths. still not sure how they help you get clean though...?
10. watched literally THE WORST movie : the Back-up Plan. couldn't even force myself to finish it. jennifer lopez, sorry but i'm not a fan.
11. eh, sorry kids but that brings us up to the present. which subsequently means i should be done and say au reviour till tomorrow. (i think thats french for goodbye?)

Thoughts of the day: by yours truly.
So i'm sitting here in the library trying to study...clearly going so well since im doing this haha. But as i've been here i have come to the conclusion that this whole concept of school is a joke. Think about it: back in the day you only had to graduate from the 8th grade to get a legitimate job. Slowly that got pushed up to 12th grade (aka you had to finish graduate high school). Next it became that you needed to get your bachelor's (go to another 4 years of school to 'specialize' in a particular area of study). And then some real big genius decided to tack on another 4 years of school and call it a masters. And what has our world have to show for this increase in schooling (not even taking into consideration if you complete all this you will have spent a quarter of your life in school)...minus new technologies, and other things that have "made our lives better/easier", we havent cured cancer or helped people live longer or stopped the global climate change or saved the rainforest or solved world hunger. So i ask...why all the school?

you can call me yellow

yes i'm lame and take these random "personality" quizzes...this one was suprisingly accurate. which is why i'm deciding to post it. but in the end it's ultimately up to you on whether or not you are going to waste your time reading it.


YELLOWS are motivated by fun. They are inviting and embrace life as a party that they are hosting. They love playful interaction and can be extremley socialble. They are highly persuasive and seek instant gratification. YELLOWS need to be adored and praised. While YELLOWS are carefree, they are quite sensitive and highly alert to others' agendas to control them. YELLOWS typically carry within themselves the gift of a good heart. YELLOWS need to look good socially and friendships command a high priority in their lives. YELLOWS are happy, inclusive, engaging others and crave adventure. Easily distracted, they can never sit still for long. They embrace each day in the present tense and choose people who, like themselves, enjoy a curious nature. YELLOWS are charismatic, spontaneous positive and can be irresponsible, obnoxious and forgetful. When you deal with a Yellow, take a positive, upbeat approach and promote light-hearted, creative and fun interactions.


i think you should also know that at this time i should be studying for my three tests this week, but am basically finding any excuse to procrastinate. aka why i'm posting random shit like this.

People effing suck, they need to get a grasp on their lives and deal with theyre own shit before they involve me in their lives. Fuck them. I hate them and they suck. Alot.

thoughts.

So i have come to realize that to have a decent blog, said blogger has to have no life. because who really has time everyday to post some random nonsense about their day/feelings/or whatever else it is they feel the need to tell the world about. ...which is the very reason i'm still a little unsure i even want a blog. who needs that kind of added responsibility? its like a pet that you have to feed and water every day for it to stay alive. and not to mention do i really want to be associated with fellow bloggers?-- these people who seem to have nothing better to do than tell people their each and every thought? it would seem that i do. but lets just leave that discussion open for another time.

the other day i was at this coffee place and ordered a vanilla latte. only to look at the sign menu thing to see the flavor was actually 'french vanilla'. which leads me to my question: what is the difference between vanilla and french vanilla? I personally can't taste any difference. although i'm not a fan of french vanilla ice cream, but only because the little dark specks creep me out.

quotes

a random selection of some of the best (aka my favorite) quotes:
*which will be updated as often as necessary



Life is about those summer days and the sand between your toes and the smiles on your face. It's about comfy couches, rainy days, backyard sprinklers, and those late night talks. It's about top down rides and wind in your face; those are the moments you've never felt so alive. It's about finding someone to hold onto, and knowing they're not holding anything back. It's about holding hands and pressing lips, giving it your best and having no regrets. Life isn't only about the destination, but the journey that gets us there.










Love is passion. Obsession. Someone you can't live without. Someone you fall head over heels for. Find someone you can love like crazy, and will love you the same way back. Listen to your heart. No sense in life without this. To make the journey without falling deeply in ...love, you haven't lived a life at all. You have to try, because if you haven't tried, then you haven't lived



Life is not the amount of breaths you take, it's the moments that take your breath away.

we ignore the ones who adore us, adore the ones who ignore us, love the ones who hurt us, and hurt the ones who love us.


If you're not willing to risk it all, then you don't want it bad enough

Maybe the truth is there's a little bit of loser in all of us, ya know? Being happy isn't having everything in your life be perfect. Maybe it's about stringing together all the little things-- making those count for more than the bad stuff. Maybe we just get through it... and that's all we can ask for.

pet peeves

pet peeve– [noun] a particular and often continual annoyance annoyance

there aren't too many things that i just absolutely cannot stand, but there are a few things that piss me off.

one for starters is traffic. i hate it with a burning passion. especially when driving my stick shift, Big Blue aka Blue Rhino. the thing with traffic though, besides just pissing me off is that the very essence of it doesn't make sense. if everyone is going at the same speed (otherwise known as the speed limit) how does it all the sudden get backed up? yes i understand that along the way cars are joining the moving masses, but cars must also be leaving too. because unless your all going to some major sporting event or concert (although i'm more talking about like rush hour traffic or random traffic on a highway..don't even get me started on ski traffic or beach traffic) you don't all live in the exact same place. so why is no one moving? that is my unanswered question. it both annoys and disturbs me.

another pet peeve of mine is when people tell you that you're sunburned. its like telling someone the color of their eyes or that they have two arms...completely unnecessary. because let me tell you a secret--they know they're sunburned.

one that may strike you as odd is that i cant eat oreo cookies whole, i have to split them in half (while usually trying to get the middle all by itself). but that's not all, the real strange part is that i get the chills (think nails on a chalk board feeling) when seeing someone just take a bite out of an oreo whole. i have absolutely no idea why, but it really creeps me out.

the infamous me

i realized that before i really get too far into this blog i should let you know a little about me. i'll put it in list form because it looks better and makes it simpler (not sure if simpler is a word).
*not in any particular order*

3. absolutely love to collage. and will collage anything: walls, book covers, i even did my lamp the other day
4. LOVE country music.
5. i have an odd fascination with ripped jeans. i don't know why, just always have.
6. peace signs immediately attract me.
7. am drawn to bright colors..specifically anything neon. or pink
8. madly in love with Tom Scavo. yes, i do realize that he is a fictional character. and old. get over it.9. infatuated with Michael Vartan. like want him to be my future husband. no joke.
10. obsessed with anything that has to do with the beach. and palm trees. and the ocean.
11. i get WAY too into tv shows. Alias, Desperate Housewives, Lost.
12. would eat breakfast for every meal of everyday.
13. couldn't live without: fresca, edamame, cranberry juice, 100 calorie popcorn mini bags, and dunkin iced coffee.
14. condiments are my life. literally. there are about a total of 3 foods that i don't need condiments for.
15. i basically worship bbq sauce. i will put it on ANYTHING.
16. one day i will find the lochness monster.
17. i have a serious splenda problem. put it in just about everything.
18. have about 20 nicknames. bnut, bex, b, beccanut, blackout becca...just to name a few
19. i had to end on nineteen because it's sort of my lucky number. my birthday is on the 19th and im 19 right now. oh which reminds me...im also very superstitious. in highschool before EVERY volleyball game i would eat a taco bell crunchwrap supreme (without lettuce). and any time they either forgot the tomatoes or added lettuce i didn't play well, but when they made it right i did fantastic
thats all i can think of...for now.

numero uno

so this is my blog. first blog ever to be exact. what a great result of boredom. i mean there is really only so much of facebook you can handle on a given day...no matter how great stalking is haha. and trust me, i'm a stalking champ. love it. hahah. oh and i feel like there are a few things i should apologize for/warn you about before we really get started here and give you the option to back out before you get in too deep: a) i tend to overuse haha. i'm not quite sure why, other than the fact that i like to laugh..probably more than your average person. also because i don't really like lol. no idea as to why. i've decided that its only use is when an awkward situation is trying to be avoided. b) i'm not a big fan of capital letters...as you can see. something about them just seems intimidating. i like to save them for times when i need to get a point across. well i'm thinking that about wraps it up for now. mostly because this whole blogging thing seems a little strange...and because i'm tired and don't want to type anymore. maybe tomorrow i'll make a list of things i would like to accomplish this summer. be a productive member of society.

peace.
