badasses or not

female characters in hollywood that i can appreciate.

veronica mars because shes takes no shit and is a private investigator.


evelyn salt because she made a bomb out of a table leg and fire extinguisher. AND takes no shit.


lucy liu because she plays many pro-women characters AND dates joseph gordon-levitt. sigh the ULTIMATE cougar which is the dream. Also i was uncomfortable having an all white list of badass women. (not a character but thats just how damn important she is)

lorelai gilmore because she made her own life and did it without a man.

bethenny frankel because she built her own brand, used a ridiculous show like real housewives to better her situation, married jason and taught me how to be naturally thin. for the record, i consider being with a top quality person as a positive characteristic because who a person dates speaks volumes. (i.e. SPIEDI)

women, i do NOT appreciate. most will not need explanation.
bella swan: just too stupid and willing to give up everything for a guy.
miley cyrus: . . .
paris hilron: . . .
kourtney kardashian: hahahah she had a child and continues to be with that scott guy. before a kid, its pathetic. after one, its unacceptable.
farrah from teen mom: she left her baby girl in a sink. the baby turned on the hot water and burned her hand. :(

Undecided
kate gosselin, stereotypical neurotic white woman BUT does keep 8 kids presentable. thoughtfully runs her household BUT married jon gosselin.

YUPS thats all i have for now. as you can tell critical thoughts occupy my mind.

the night before DOOM

tomorrow is the first day of OCIs.
YES! traditionally, i would say something negative and self-deprecating but NO MORE. this is me positive.

anywho, today i spent the day preparing myself for impending doom (negative? nahh).
and david layed like broccoli,


i tried to eat "naturally thin" a la Bethenny Frankel and was successful up until the current blue moon.

my summer update

we're now nearing the end of summer and its pretty damn depressing. although not terribly exciting, these past two months have provided a sense of calm and stability that i can now truly appreciate.

updates for my fellow reader,

1) david moved in. its been great, so far. i feel myself become more domestic as the days pass. he better enjoy it while it last because once school starts--i'll be too busy feeling sorry for myself to make him lunch.
2)im on a new kick to be a more active human being. it doesn't help that david has no real need to exercise. fuck guys and their metabolism.
3) lastly, i am forever grateful that june gloom is past us. herrorooo sunshine.

I love you.

btw, the lakers won! i knew that you'd be happy.

hindsight

YAYAYA! im done with finals. DONE.

although, there are still things to do, i feel so damn relieved.

thursday night: hals for steak and wine.
friday: california disney with jacks and pats, rides and beer/wine tastings
today: watching tv, boiling crab with mi madre, iron man 2, birthday party and...NO STUDYING!

our dean sent out an email the night before our last final congratulating us for a job well-done and reminding us to thank those who supported us along the way. So THANK YOU for being you.

a perfect match

dave and i complement each other so well.

for one thing, he has great taste in movies, all the movie channels and a huge selection of dvds. im only catching up on the "must-sees."

a notable contribution to my life...


plus, he remembers every plot and character. its pretty crazy.
sometimes i enjoy asking him about movies more than re-watching them.

up next (after finals): My Fellow Americans

spooky

last night, cassie's mom said that there would be an earthquake in the next 24 hours. and this morning, there was a 6.9 shaker in China. isn't that CRAZY and spooky?
and because i like to freak myself out. i looked up a timeline of all the major earthquakes recorded in history. its not good, we've had 4 major earthquakes in the last 6 months.
so maybe, i shouldn't study too hard for my finals because the possibility of a major earthquake wiping out los angeles is pretty imminent. hahah jk. or am i? hmmmmm??

let me just say: if the world does end at 2012 as predicted by john cusack, i'll be freaking pissed.
why? because i'll have spent the last years of my life in hell when i should have been sunbathing on the amalfi coast.
