5 Things Friday?? Perhapsies?

(This is late due to my computer being sick in the brain >_>)
Well hello all you fine folklings...
Happy Friday! (and Thursday was pretty good as well if I do say so myself).

Shout out to Strongbad who's back for a few weeks...thanks for the cookies ;) Totally scrumptious...

SO! Today is Mami's Birthday!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY :D So shout out to her as well - you're awesome! We have tons of fun living together...get along so well and we just have a nice system that works quite nicely ^^

This 5 Things Friday will be about Birthday's! (seems suiting?)

5 Things Friday
Birthday Edition

1. Ok, well this one's a given. CAKE! Sweet sweet, delicious cake! So I'll be making Mami's cake, and hopefully it lives up to both of our expectations! (I'll let you know how it goes). {And of course, ice cream slips in with this category as well ;> } Calories don't count on your birthday - YAY!!!(This one has SNOOPY ON IT!?!? :O! Awesome...)

(This cat knows what it's talking about...)

2. Having a day where the attention is on you! (well hopefully)! Doesn't necessarily have to be the whole day, but some extra attention is nice sometimes ;)

(What the heck?!? I googled "all about me" and this popped up?? Conceited dog...)

3. Ok lets be serious.... we all like some gifts every now and then. Not necessarily big expensive things, but some thought filled ones or HEY even a nice lunch? :) It just kind of adds a bit of excitement! And of course the random cards with nice thoughts and little drawings and such!


4. All jokes aside, I think it's nice to get a year older. Although it's slightly saddening growing up, it's all a part of life. It gives you a chance to step back and evaluate where you're at and where you're headed (I do this more at my birthday than New Year's personally). And lets face it, every year we're growing in some way...whether it be emotionally, intellectually, spiritually or even physically.

(this had nothing to do with anything really...it just amused me) :D

5. And best of all...getting to hear from/hang out with all the people who truly love or care about you! Remembering someone's birthday makes them feel happy - 'nuff said :P

(And on that lame note...I'll call it a post...)

I'll give a few more details about Mami's birthday another day ;)

Ciao for meow :)!

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- Naps and me...just don't really seem to work. Yesterday I had a nap (it was an accident) and then I slept terribly (as in not at all) last night. *sigh* No naps for me :(

Sweet, Sweet August...

Hopefully you bring many a sunny day (ok...listen to this song, I hadn't heard it in sooo long)!

Well helllllloooo! So basically, I haven't been on here in a while. There's some story about a robbery, getting seriously injured while trying to save the day and a baby. But alas...this story would be made up and make little to no sense ;).
I don't really have excuses, I've just been busy and preoccupied by other things as of late. PLUS this past weekend I moved! I'm still in the same city, and I'm still living with one of the same room mates (Mami).
RUNDOWN ON MAMI -- Alright, soooo she's very talented and smart and has been to school and had a lot of life experiences. She's already going places with her life but she's going back to school in the fall nonetheless to further her education ;). Very fun, fun to be around and just all around awesome. Not to mention...she's a total babe! She's multi-lingual and has been helping me learn a few random Spanish and French words/sayings. :D Her and I have decided that I'm Wispanic (wannabe Hispanic....)
AND BACK WE GOOOOO
So yes, Mami and I spent Friday evening/Saturday morning moving all of our things and cleaning a bunch. Our new place basically looked like a bomb went off because we're both kind of clean freaks/germ-a-phobes and we wanted everything to be washed down and cleaned before putting things away at all. Let me just say... a lot of bleach water and other cleaning supplies have been used. (Seriously though, fridge...kitchen, cupboards, counters, all walls, curtains and so on have been/will be cleaned). We've spent many an hour cleaning and there's still a bit more to do...but the majority seems to be coming together :)! It's nice to finally get more settled and organized. BIG shout out to everyone who helped us this weekend, we seriously appreciate it!! (You know who you were).

A couple more random shout outs...
1. Francesca...your brownies (or cookies, or browwwnnniesss) on Sunday were seriously delicious! I love you.
2. Strongbad - hope all is well.
3. Lambie - the mattress is so delightful, THANKS!

SO, I know I never got around to this earlier (I swears I meant to)... but HP7.2 review will occur now! So obviously the movies can't compare with the books but I thought it was good! I'd give it...probably ****/5. It was well done for effects and graphics and such, and it takes you on a vast emotional journey ranging from anger, to sadness, to happiness. And I feel like it all ends nicely :).

I don't recall if I've mentioned this at all yet, but lately I've tried and become somewhat attached to a Vietnamese dish. I don't remember what it's called...but it's basically little noodles (noods), and beef and it's just tasty :)

Random beauty tip for you well... (got this from Mami)...instead of using expensive makeup removers, use Johnson's Baby Oil (on a little cotton pad). She swears by this, and I see her use it all the time and it clearly works. Waterproof or anything, this inexpensive alternative works!

Toodles for meow :)!

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- Well, first off... Mami and I watched Selena (yes, with Jennifer Lopez) on Sunday night. I had forgotten how much I loved this movie! I used to watch this over and over when I was younger and I could still quote lines, and know lots of the songs and so on.

Everytime I watch this movie , it makes me wonder how much more she would've done and where she'd be today if she'd been given the chance. Anyways... here's a few of my favorite songs ;) 1 .... 2 .... 3

It's a beautiful life

Isn't it?

Life is pretty good and hopefully for all y'all as well.
Lately I've been watching the Harry Potter movies with a couple of friends in preparation to see the 8th (7 part 2) and final movie - And the time has almost come! (As in we're done watching the past ones, but aren't going to see the new one until tomorrow as it's cheap Tuesday ;>).
SO! I shall let you know what I think :)
I hadn't seen the Harry Potter movies in quite some time, so it was good to catch up. It's interesting watching them close to one another so you can see the increasing appeal to adults in the later movies and also just watching the main characters grow. Harry Potter (and everyone else) looks so little in The Philosopher's Stone (the first one)! And then, in every movie after that... he just looks plain awkward (at least I think so). But look how cute they were~!

Anyone else follow Harry Potter??

Annnndddd on to a much better topic...ice cream :D Just kidding, but I did have a fairly good amount of ice cream this weekend ;) PLUS I've corrupted one of my room mates into eating ice cream more >:3 (she likes it with my cookie dough). And I have yet to do a rundown on her...but I'll call her Mami ;) {I've been watching Harry Potter with her, her friend, and my other room mate}. Speaking of Mami's friend...(I'll call him Superman), he had a Birthday on Friday and party on Sunday (I got to be a part of both days). And I got to eat some pretty delicious cake...seriously. Anyways, Happy Birthday Superman!

And with that I'm calling it a day! Yesterday and today I've been listening to Ace of Base... they're awesome.

Fare well for meow :)!



P.S. Ace of Base (The Sign) was my first CD...I "borrowed" it from my sister Lambie ;)

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- Sometimes I have a tendency to either make up words or add suffixes to the end of words, where they should not be added. Example...
We were in choir and working on a more difficult song, so the guys and the girls went in separate rooms to practice. The guys come back at the end.
Me: "Did you enjoy your male bondage time?"
Everyone: o.o (stares and laughs awkwardly)
Me: "Oh shoot..." -.-

Five Things Friday!

5 Things Friday
Things that make me happy...

1. Well this one is pretty obvious. Take one guess. Ice Cream. Seriously though, it's just so good! And lately I've been having vanilla with Heath (from the U.S. {brought back from Texas} similar to Skor) crushed up into it. The delicious chemistry that occurs is just...yum. 'Nuff said.


2. Sun! If the sun is shining, that day is almost guaranteed to be better. The sun brings warmth, which brings happy/relaxing thoughts (to my head anyways), which brings happiness overall!

3. Sleep :). Glorious glorious sleep. Can influence the next day a LOT. Good sleep = good day (usually)

4. Helping others feel happy. This may sound silly but focusing on someone else helps take your mind off of bad things going on with you. In my case anyways ;)

(this picture also made me happy :D)

5. My new ASUS Eee Tab :D Basically, it's like an iPad...but better because I've got it ;) Soooo that's it, that's all folks! Other things make me happy but this is what came to mind today ;)

Ciao for meow :)!

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- So it was just reaffirmed to me that I'm a wee bit of a piggy... a lot of food could (and almost did) make this list -.- haha!

So another major thing that makes me happy is music! Especially this song - Arcade Fire...you're awesome.

Wet bum :(

Need I say more?

Ok - ok! So basically... yesterday was our laaaaaast soccer game (awwwww :l now what??). I figured it would be canceled because just a couple hours before the game was scheduled, it started absolutely POURING. But within half an hour it had passed over, leaving blue skies and sun! SO to soccer I went, and the first half went quite well. When it came to second half, you could see absolutely BLACK clouds creeping in...but on we played! And then the rain came down (and the floods came up - just kidding)... and I'll just say, I couldn't have been more wet if I were swimming. Drenched! But it was fun :D
Moral of the story?? Weather here is absolutely ridiculous -.- (and yes, we lost ;>)
Continuing on...
SO I had to get into moi car absolutely drenched and dripping (picture a soggy rat...or sweet little puppy?), thus making my seat get quite wet as well. And I figured out this morning that the seat was not dry at all *.* Thus equating to my present wet bum situation. :( Denim takes too long to dry! (and apparently so do car seats...)


Toodles for meow :)!

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- I love the rain, but I hate being cold... Also, I dislike having to sit around in a state of wetness (unless it's on a beach).

Wet bum, signing out...

"Mmmm"unchy Monday ;)

Embrace the lameness... now break embrace and listen to me.

This will sound ridiculous, but it was tasty!
Last night, my room mates and I were watching Harry Potter 2 when we realized we were quite famished. SOOOO I suggested KD and perogies (the only food I had in my ownership...besides ice cream and watermelon) and we decided that was exactly what we needed. And it was! KD and (potato/cheese) perogies go pretty marvelously together - I kid you not.
Step 1: make KD
Step 2: fry (or boil as my roomies did) perogies (I fried mine...)
Step 3: add desired seasoning (or sour cream {roomies})
Step 4: feast upon deliciousness

Keep in mind we were quite starving and that may or may not have influenced our taste buds...

Hope weekends were celebrated and adventures were had!

Byeas for meow :)!

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- I've been putting off grocery shopping for a really long time...

Take Your Medicine >:l

Ok there is no medicine... But this song is fantastic as well! And I wasn't sure if you fine folk would check it out if I didn't put the link up on here! And this song is definitely worthy of being listened to. So happy :)!



Hope ya enjoy :D
