traffic jams in tokyo...

10:52am: Indian Clothing..
Might be one of the greatest things ever... so comfortable, flattering to all body types, and did I say b-e-a-utiful?



( sari's salwar kameej's, lehenga's! Oh my! )

9:41am: Hail, Hail the Gangs All Here!
I am excited to say that I am a proud part-time employee at Kwik Trip. I should be working 10-20 hours a week at 8.10 an hour, which should help me pay for the gas I buy from Kwik Trip, hehe!

With that, I also hope to be able to hang out with my friends again without too much worry on the part of finances... maybe I can even SAVE some money for the future. Wouldn't that be a novel idea. I also hope to eat a little more healthier with the new income.

Dreams dreams... we'll see where that takes me...

9:40am: soooo sad...
It's amazing, how the population of this place has diminished. I left for a while myself, but that's 'cause fit was hitting the shan. I finally wake up, come back... and all of three people still use this thing.

I have to admit, I was hoping to hear from some of my old LJ friends :( Oh no, I guess I'll have to make new ones now. My friend, Kelley from NC is my friend on facebook too, so I will have to track her down on there... i'm basically rambling, so that's cool.

I also need to find a job. Soon. I needs teh money. I've been applying a lot online and intend to meander around town later today picking up applications.

AND I am going to be playing WOW a good chunk of the day I hope. Waste my time on leveling (I can't let my buddy athina get to far ahead of me, muahhaha!)

Okay, off to play wow... maybe i'll edit later when I actually have something to say.

10:50am: Gas Prices
My sister sent me this, and I found it amusing :)


Trying to find something funny in the absurdity of it all .........................

The price of Gas versus Printer Ink


All these examples do NOT imply that gasoline is cheap; it just illustrates how outrageous some prices are....

You will be really shocked by the last one!
(At least, I was...)

Compared with Gasoline......

Think a gallon of gas is expensive?





This makes one think, and also puts things in perspective to other things we buy.


Diet Snapple 16 oz $1.29 ... $10.32 per gallon


Lipton Ice Tea 16 oz $1.19 ........$9.52 per gallon


Gatorade 20 oz $1.59 ..... $10.17 per gallon


Ocean Spray 16 oz $1.25 ......... $10.00 per gallon


Brake Fluid 12 oz $3.15 ...... $33.60 per gallon


Vick's Nyquil 6 oz $8.35 ... $178.13 per gallon


Pepto Bismol 4 oz $3.85 .. $123.20 per gallon


Whiteout 7 oz $1.39 ....... . $25.42 per gallon


Scope 1.5 oz $0.99 .....$84.48 per gallon
And this is the REAL KICKER...

Evian water 9 oz $1.49..$21.19 per gallon! $21.19 for WATER and the buyers don't even know the source

(Evian spelled backwards is Naive.)

Ever wonder why printers are so cheap?
So they have you hooked for the ink.
Someone calculated the cost of the ink at...............
(you won't believe it....but it is true........)
$5,200 a gal. (five thousand two hundred dollars)

So, the next time you're at the pump,be glad your car doesn't run on water, Scope, or Whiteout, Pepto Bismol, Nyquil or God forbid, Printer Ink!


Just a little humor to help ease the pain of your next trip to the pump...

8:42pm: Two more finals. Then I am done for my first semester back in college.

And i'm not going to lie--it's a lot harder than you'd think. This semester has been shit, as far as i'm concerned, but the fact that I am making it through should at least be noted as some sort of victory.


( My Wild Week )

Tomorrow is my birthday! Woot-ness! I'll be 22. Nothing exciting planned, but I suppose we shall see.

On sunday I fly out to Las Vegas to visit my mom for a few days--Then we're packing up and driving back across the country together. Should be exciting.

11:14am: There we are!
I now have a pretty-ful profile and a few new avatars... INCLUDING THE DOCTOR, FTW!!!

... anyway, I went to the Caribbean, as previously stated. Here are a few highlights from that trip:

San Juan, Puerto Rico



Me in a phonebooth. Saint Lucia, West Indies



The ship at Night.


Orient Beach, St. Martin/St. Maartin. The other side of the beach is nudist...


See?


Well, that was only a few pictures, but I hope you enjoyed nonetheless.

I am off to play warcrack with my awesome boyfriend. Ciao, all!

10:29am: Goddess I am!

Which Goddess lurks in your soul? Nyx A child of the darkness you are! Nyx is the Greek Goddess of the Night and inhabits those souls who desire darkness. Not necessarily an evil or good person, you simply desire to surround yourself in all things mystical that inhabit the night time landscape. A fascination with the stars and celestial bodies also tends to accompany those whom Nyx has taken up residence in. Embrace the darkness baby because it’s already embraced you!

I don't really recall learning about her in High School, sadly. I like the look of this Goddess, it seems rather fitting to me and my interests.

I need a new LJ layout. BAKA. So after I post this mofo, that be's what i's do.

Also, to any manga readers or just plain out odd people out there, I highly suggest you read "I Luv Halloween." If nothing else, do it for Moochie! (read n you'll see what I mean ^_~)

I am out, ciao!

9:57am: Wellllll shit.
It's been a while since I updated my LJ. I forgot how cool this place was. Hmm. ANYWAY, I went through some of my old entries and realized I am/was a whiney bitch. But, this is also from last year. And a lot can happen in a year. AND a lot did.

MAJOR HIGHLIGHtS:
1). Got out of my emotionally abusive relationship with Kumar.
2). Got 2 jobs--one of which (IHOP) I walked out of after four months of being treated like shit! the other, I dropped out of school for and was shift manager after 6 months. A few months later I quit that job too to do #3.
3). Back in school now, with the help, love and support of my family, friends, and boyfriend.
4). I have a boyfriend, Jeff Nenstiel. We play World of Warcraft and skip through grocery stores together!
5). My sisters wedding was amazing. Srsly.
6). I am reconnecting with friends who I wasn't allowed to see during the evil ex's reign.
7). ZOMGZ. Heather had a baybeh. I needs to see it!
8). I am leaving for the Caribbean soon... as in tomorrow I fly out. Woot!

9:00pm: AHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!! I'm laughing my ass off right now. On Mythbusters, Jamie and Adam did this expeiment to explode paint to paint walls rather than rollers or brushes... ANYWAY, It was busted and Adam claimed that on each wall of the shack that it was a different phase of Jackson Pollack's career--the voice over then said "Adam is obviously talking complete Pollack"...I've been laughing ever since.
