If you fall...I may catch you

The only relation the title has to the post, is that it's the first day of Fall or Autumn...or something. And you know what, I'm going to embrace Fall with open arms! Sadly, my putting up a fight won't hinder it's arrival. So come here buddy - give me a hug! (But so help me, if you bring Winter soon...I'll get you ._.)

This amused me :D-------------------->

Anyways...Fall really isn't so bad. The main thing I dislike about it, is that Winter generally follows along pretty quickly. And I just hate driving in the winter :< (Scary!) And we all know that I'm not a fan of being cold. (Well...I know it anyways...) And if you didn't know, here's a poem to sum up my feelings.

*ahem*
Cold, cold - Go away.
I hate you, and you are gay (synonymial to lame).

And there you have it.

And here you have this! *drumroll*

{5 Things} Friday (from technically yesterday because I didn't get a chance to finish...)
Things I like about Fall (edition?)

1. The Colors! Red, orange, yellow, brown. All so pretty...all so warm :) Don't get me wrong, I love the green in Spring and Summer...but by the time Fall gets here, you're (I'm) ready for the change.

2. All the leaves. I love walking in an area with a lot of trees... and leaves are just falling everywhere. It's quite peaceful if I do say so myself. I don't know, I'm one of those people that enjoys the beauty in nature. Hope you do too :) (And moving on from that lame fest...)

Along with that note...leaves are fantastic for jumping in! I haven't done it in...well...a long long while. But lets be serious - everyone enjoys a good leaf jump fiesta. Or they should anyways.
(Not a big fan of the whole raking element though...)

3. The festive spirit that comes and builds up until Christmas. You know what I'm talking about?
Along with fall comes...
curling up and cuddling under a blanket
getting to bundle up in sweaters, scarves, boots and the likes
hot chocolate/apple cider season begins ;) (ok...in my books these are condoned all year round. as is ice cream. good day.)
baked goods (also all year round...but you know what I mean right?)
getting dark earlier equates to going to bed earlier :D (ok...sometimes :P)
and many many more!

What better way to sum up festive fall spirit than a... festive smiling acorn? :D
(Trust me...I tried...)

4. Crisp air. I don't know what it is...there's something nice about the crisp air that fall brings. It's refreshing and actually a nice change after the Summer months (Summer I still love you...).
The only bad thing, is it generally also means the air is getting more dry (thus resulting in my nose leaking read fluid... or just leaking more in general).

(intense lighting for a box of kleenex, hey?

5. Last and certainly not least... Halloween and me birthday :D
Not that I've really been into dressing up or anything lately, and I stopped trick or treating a loooonnnnngggg long time ago (I went until I was 18... -.- ). But it's just such an exciting time...full of deliciously fattening things. And hello! Pumpkin carving and such!
(WARNING: I am biased as my birthday and Halloween are so close...)
Anyways, 'nuff said...it's awesome.

(This picture reminds me of Nightmare Before Christmas...I haven't seen that in a long while)

And here I leave you with a massive fro...

Apparently this chick holds the world record for her fro. Her hair is over 4 feet long! How would you see?!??

And now I bring this post to a close... What're your thoughts on Fall? What's on your list?

Toodles for meow :)!

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- Yes, I actually did trick or treat until I was 18 (or rather, my last year was when I was 18). It's been a long past 3 years ;<

PS...the font size in this post was possessed... seriously D': It took me sooo long to make it look even somewhat normal :(

I choose you!

Is it sad that I just tried to "Follow" myself? Don't answer that...

Anyways, look at me go! Getting a blog up on a Monday like a big girl!
Do I have much to say? Not at all...
Do I have anything to say? I'm sure I could ramble on about something... :P

Soooo yaaaaaa. How was yoouuuuurrr weekend? ;) {That isn't meant to infer anything...so if you're thinking anything ridiculous or perverted right now, it's your own fault}.

My weekend was pretty alright. Definitely had it's ups and downs.
Downs? Strongbad and I...well...had a fairly rough patch that may or may not be over. Should be alright though.
Ups? Well, GODIVA chocolate was boughten on Friday. {amg, drool...}. Lately Mami and I have been getting a few of those {each} once a week because, well, they're just SO GOOD! {I've been taking a break from the glorious Slab (yes, that Marble one...)}. So, if you've never been...GO! They're buy 3 get one free right now (yes...they're fairly pricey. even after the 4th being free, it's like 7 bucks ._.). However, they're so good and quite rich...so you can't {or rather you shouldn't be} eating as many anyways. 'Nuff said.
Saturday, I made the cake I had made for Mami's birthday again. It was delish yet again. ;) Don't worry...we haven't been gorging ourselves {in public :D}.

Soooo yesterday was Sunday, and in the evening...Mami and I watcchhheedd Sense and Sensibility.
Have you seen it?
I actually hadn't even seen it before. It was pretty good until about half way through the movie it was like... "O.O What in the name of blonde Severus Snape is going on here?!?!". I just couldn't do it - I couldn't think of him (Whatever his real name is....) as anything more than Severus Snape. I kind of wish I had seen this movie before Harry Potter...
But alas, beggers can't be choosers {not that that really applies in this circumstance...oh well *shrugs*}.
Anyways, it was a pretty good movie! So if you're into that type of movie and haven't seen it...go for it! {WARNING: Blonde Severus Snape will still be there, even when you watch it}

While I was watching that movie, it made me think about that era. And how very very glad I am, that I did not live then.
1. The etiquette was so...well, you know me...enough said.
2. Those long heavy dresses. All. The. Time. One word - No.
3. The dancing. Jumping around like prancing ponies.
4. The focus on marriage...well that just reminds me of us Mormons actually -.-
5. The way they talk...is actually really awesome! (When I was making fun of it through the entire movie, it was only because I liked it so much.)

Wow. Clearly someone forgot to take their pill today.
Crazy signing out.

Au revoir for meow :)!

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- Ever since I was young, I've enjoyed turning on (and up) music and singing and dancing around to my hearts content. {Yes, that's why I enjoyed being home alone so much...}. Today this song came on the radio, and I specifically remember it being one of my fave's. {MJ and JJ for life!} ;)
Toodles. I, now, must away.

Cheese and Cracker break

Yes, I'm actually having a cheese and cracker break... and yes, I'm 5 years old (3 to be more exact...).

Sooo yea, I was going to do a 5 Things Friday...but then I didn't feel like it. In your face lame followers that probably don't even follow me!

• 1. Watermelon is better than cantaloupe
• 2. Old is the best of the cheddars
• 3. 2% chocolate milk is much more delicious and creamy than 1%
• 4. Soy milk is surprisingly pretty decent...and almond milk! (And together they equal creamy and delicious)
• 5. Baby carrots are addicting, but they're not near as good as "real" carrots

Well...now that I've lost all respect for myself... I leave you with this demon cat video. Meow.

Peace out, enjoy your weekend yo.

Ciao for meow :)!

Clearly someone had their mind on food today...

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- When I was younger, I used to think that eating cucumbers and cheese together...tasted like tater tots. (I'm not even going to try and make that sound better... I know it's weird)

{5 Things} Friday ;)

Allllrrriiiiggght. Heyo...{nerdlings} ;) I feel the need to call you all something odd most, if not every, time. So I meant to get another posty post up sometime this week, but...well...clearly that just did not happen. Regardless, be grateful. ._.

5 Things Friday
Things happening in me life as of lately...

1. So, you may or may not have learned, in classes like psychology and such, about penis envy. And well, this has nothing to do with that...but I get school envy. It's a very real and serious issue.

school envy [skool en-vee]
noun
1. The repressed urge to return back to school.

May include such symptoms as:
- generally withdrawn, solemn, or morose
- frequently having the desire to knock someone out and take their place in school
- frequently talking about school and school envy
- eating large amounts of ice cream*

*also a side effect of being a swine; diagnosis shouldn't be based solely off of this symptom

Possible treatments:
- enrollment in school
- withholdment from school
- regular doses of SATF (slaps across the face)
- withholdment from large amounts of ice cream**

**may result in protesting or, in severe cases, violence


2. Alias. Lately Mami and I have been watching a bunch of Alias. It's a fairly old TV series that aired in the...90's? *shrugs* Anyways, I'm pretty hooked...but I can get hooked to shows relatively easily. So, this show is kind of ridiculous and generally quite difficult to believe... but check it out if you're willing! And then report back to me. Over and out.


3. Random song to share. You may have possibly heard it on the radio...maybe not. But regardless - it's enjoyable. Listen up!



4. The useage of the word cool. What do you think? Do you use it? Are you yourself cool?
I'm sure I used this word quite a bit in the past and likely still use it from time to time. I have realized though, that I'm not particularly a fan. It seems like such a useless word, unless using it to say it's "cool {chilly} outside" (but even then...it's just not the same anymore...). Cool, to me, seems like a filler word someone would throw out when they're uninterested and have nothing better to say...unless they're one of those people that have a certain word they use ALL the time. You know what I mean?

"Cool shirt, man."
"That's cool"
"You know what would be cool? Us using the word cool all the time. Cool?"
"Cool"

And don't get me wrong, there are other words like this...a very similar one would be sweet. (I know I use this one from time to time...). Anyways, that was just a rant that I've had on my mind. Cool?


5. I have the lamest (most lame) follower/readers ever. :P Seriously, no comments, no nothing. Boo on all of you.

That's it, that's all.

Toodles for meow :)!

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- You may or may not know this about me...I have a tendency to make many a random noise, especially squaw or caw-ing noises. If you didn't know this, you should likely consider yourself quite lucky.
All squaw's on deck! Hopefully that doesn't offend anyone....because I'm just talking about my noises...Or am I?!

Dong out. (If you don't understand, don't worry about it) ;>

Friday. Friday. Got to get down on friday...

(oh dear goodness...judge me if you wish {I'm already judging myself})

So hewwo!
It's been a while you little nerdlings (I'm not sure why...but you're apparently all nerdlings. Don't blame me, my fingers made me do it...)
So suprisingly, there isn't a lot going on in my life :[ I feel like there's nothing really to update on! Well... Francesca has gone away to BC to go to school {fare well and good luck!}. But as for me, a big pile of nothingness!

But this scene from Steve Martin's Pink Panther (yes I know it's ridiculous...) has been in my mind today...
(I don't care if you hate it - watch it! >:l )



"I'm glad he's pushing up daisies"
"Eee izz not pushing up daisies, eee izz dead!"
"It's an idiom"
"You sir, are za idiom"

So ridiculous :'D.

Anyways...not a lot to share. Happy September? Here I am again...jealous of all those going back to school. Seriously. I'm pretty sure this happens to me every September. Bunch of lucky losers going back to school :l *sigh* Soon enough.

So along with the start of September comes Labour Day Weekend - any big plans??
I'll be hanging out with the roomie {Mami} and heading down to the Bridge. (If I make it there that is...I'm having car issues :< Curse you Sunfire... )

And I think I'm going to keep it short and real today. Maybe I'll get a 5 things friday up next weekend ;) So make sure to enjoy this long weekend - stay happy...eat ice cream :D

Byeas for meow :)!

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- I can do a backflip off the diving board now :D Not that it's any good...I'm sure it looks ridiculous. -.- Anyways! At swimming this past wednesday, I went to the end of the board to do said backflip....and, simply put, I pulled a Trudy and immediately proceeded to fall off and do a back flop instead. Go me.

PS...This song was also on my mind today.

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
