Ever?

Have you ever had a friend that was really picky about food?
You probably have, and if that doesn't bother you, than you are a better person than me. 'Cause grown people who are picky just gets under my skin and is one of my biggest pet peeves.

I have this one friend especially, lets call her Bonnie. Whenever she comes to my house, all she wants to eat is bread. None of my food is good enough for her, except my bread. I offer salsa, ewww, I offer apples or any kind of fruit, and she scrunches up her nose in disguise. By this time, I'm think what do you want from? This is all I have, if that is not good enough for you then I guess you wouldn't eat! But of course I can't say that and neither can I say, since you never like what I feed you, then don't ask to come to my house!

But whenever there is something she likes, its usually something I don't want to feed her cause its my personal stash, or being saved for "a rainy day" and she wants to eat it all.
Ex. my mother just sent over brownies, theres two left sitting on the counter, also there are two kinds of ice cream in the fridge, and I have some pastries left over.
She wants: a brownie, both scoops of ice cream (which she might not even eat!) and at least two pastries.
By the time she is done, there is nothing left for me when I get the munchies at night. I try to tell her no, but then she asks "why?"
damn it she always asks me why! I was taught that no means no! I guess she was raised by wolves! And I don't always have a reason why, by saying I don't want to feed your freaking pie hole cause you annoy me is of course something I can't say.

She is actually a really good friend, until it comes to food. Whenever someone passes by her with a bag of pretzels her eyes light up and she asks "can I have some?"
I just want to turn to her and say, can't you not eat for two seconds? sometimes people actually want to eat their food and not share it! This time I can actually day those things!
And oh yeah she is as skinny as a supermodel!

I tried the can I have everything in your fridge act when I was at her house, and it didn't work. Maybe because I have manners. All in all I think she just likes to control things!

Many of times to get her to shut up about different foods (cause she is not open to anything different! It's always weird to her. And that's another pet peeve of mine.) I tell her she should be a food critic. But I would never really want her to be one, because for example if you don't like lobster and have to go criticize lobster of course you aren't going to like it, even if its actually good lobster. So it would be extremely unfair to the chef.
now that I have gotten that off my chest, I feel alot better.
So heres to the leech! She will suck everything from you, but only if she likes your blood.

President Day: Martin Van Buren

Martin Van Buren
  • He was our 8th president
  • He was democratic
  • Vice President: Richard Mentor Johnson
  • Born in New York
  • Born: December 5, 1782
  • Died: July 24, 1862
  • His ancestry was Dutch
  • Served only one term
  • He was a 55 yr-old widower
  • and had four sons
  • In the case of Amistad: He sided with the kidnapped slaves, and believed they should be sent back to Africa
  • However, he oversaw the Trail of Tears

Why do you think that we have not heard of him?

Did he benefit the country?

So far he sounds like an interesting guy, maybe I should read more about him. good-bye for now!

Go Kiss a rock

The one thing I really really hate is when your talking to a friend and they correct your grammar. That's something I expect from my Speech Therapist mother, not a fellow adult. I mean come on! get a life!
"I don't feel good"
-'You don't feel well you mean"

then all I want to say next is go kiss a monkey's ass but I don't.

Here are the topics:
French day (I write in all French or any language I feel like)
Poem Day (this will be my favorite)
Flower Power (I will try to research about a type of flower)
Presidents (I will try to research one of our Presidents, founding fathers or someone I think should get a time of day)

Let's see if you can understand me :)

Maintenant j'écoute Paramore, traitant mes devoirs d'école, obtenir mon GED. Un GED est un diplôme que vous pouvez travailler pour si vous ne finissez pas l'Ecole secondaire mais voulez un diplôme d'Ecole secondaire. L'année prochaine je gradue avec espoir, je sûr sait que je le mérite et je le veux si mauvais. Plus tôt je suis allé avec mon roomate, Estelle aux Etables et à Nobles. J'ai pris un livre appelé « le Bonbon dans l'Action ». Il paraît vraiment drôle si je l'ai acheté. Je ne me sens pas comme la lecture d'un mystère de meurtre ou quelque chose que fera me penser ou demande ou pleure ou a effrayé. Je me sens juste comme la lecture de lumière de quelque chose et drôle. Aucunes vraies aventures de tought juste quelque chose que je ne dois pas fais vraiment l'attention.

And here I am home, once again

For many people,
they always ask me why
I go find myself at night
When the sun's gone awaay
and the darkness falls
I escape to a better place
with my running shoes.
Then only then,
can I hear my thoughts
my wishes, my dreams, my asperasions
It started not long ago
Early spring of Freshnan year
I wanted to try something new, and exciting
Either Alchemist or Track
After a practice of running
and I had survived
A fire burned in me, that said, "drive"
And so I was stuck,
I was trapped if- alive
In the toughest Spring of my life
It broke me, molded me
and created something new
And all it needed was some
running shoes
So it was hard?
No I laugh, it was impossible
Running those 400's in what
seemed like dead summer heat
Then only could I know the definition
of pain.
Soon, thankfully the season ended,
but it has creeped up on me again
so fast.
So I put on sweats and charge my ipod
and lace up my running shoes,
'Cause it's time to run and
time to die for the second time.......

My New Favorite Song BY Vanessa Carlton - Hands on Me

LYRICS:"I first saw you at the video exchangeI know my heart, and it will never changeThis temp work would be all right if you'd call me (you'd call me)I lie awake at night and for you I pray(Chorus)We cross the deepest oceansCargo across the seaAnd if you don't believe meJust put your hands on meAnd all the constellations, shine down on you and meAnd if you don't believe me, just put your hands on me (Ah, ah ah)The subway radiates with heatWe've barely met, and still, I crossthe streetTo your door(CHORUS)Someday when our stories are toldThey'll tell of a love like thisWhen our descendants are all growing old1,000 years we'll be singingNa, na na, na na, na na na na...We climb tibetan mountains, where we can barely breatheI see the Dalai Lama, I feel him blessing meand all the constellations, shine down on you and meand if you don't believe me, just put your hands on meNa na na na na na naYour hands on meNa na na na na na naI first saw you at the video exchange "

I Love It

The feeling when its been so cold and than one day its warm.
When your body just soaks in the happiness around you.
