lots of posts
(my very sad room it isn't put together at all. give it time)
so i have a lot of down time lately. not sure why.. my classes said i should get hours of homework per week but i seem to be breezing through it all with no problems. hm. neat. so because of my down time i post a daily blog. i used to go a couple days with out saying anything but now i just post whatever. i got my skin for my ipod today. it looks BRILLIANT! very happy about it. now i am just waiting for my gameboy & cell phone skin. as well as my sisters skin for her ipod & for her phone. lots of skins. all for free. heh yay. i talked to sandy on the phone today. i really like her. she made me a towel with my name on it. i can't wait to see what it will look like. she made me feel really nice, everyone in that family has. its sunny outside yet its hailing/raining. california is so weird, it always does this sorta thing.

pg 47
mere chance/? or serious universal message?
i just was skimming through my typical favorites on the web, no big deal. wrong, here is what i came across:
"Hmmm…this email from my friend Trent says if I grab the book nearest to me, turn to page 47, it’ll tell me my fortune. Huh. Sounds fun, I guess. But I’m sitting right next to my bookcase, so they’re all equally near to me."
so i think to myself, whatever i'll grab the nearest book. i turn to pg 47. no joke. because pg 46 is blank. here is what the page said. and believe you me, i am seriously feeling slapped. i like it.
Chapter Five
WHAT DO WE DO NOW?
"i see my patterns, and i choose to make changes"
Decide to Change.
Throwing up our hands in horror at what we may call the mess of our lives and just giving up are the ways many people react at this point. Others get angry at themselves or at life and also give up.

Decide to Change.
Throwing up our hands in horror at what we may call the mess of our lives and just giving up are the ways many people react at this point. Others get angry at themselves or at life and also give up.
By giving up, I mean deciding, "It's all hopeless and impossible to make changes, so why try." The rest of it goes, "Just stay the way you are. At least you know how to handle the pain. You don't like it, but it's familiar and you hope it won't get any worse."
To me, habitual anger is like sitting in a corner with a dunce hat on. Does this sound familiar? Something happens and you get angry. Something else happens and you get angry again. Something else happens, and once again you get angry. But you never go beyond getting angery.
What good does that do? It's a foolish reaction to waste your time only getting angry. It's also a refusal to see life in a new and different way.
It would be much more helpful to ask yourself how you are creating so many situations to get angry at.

creme brulee
- making creme brulee and torching the tops to crack them afterward. then eating all of it to myself.
- picking out one by one, the pieces of food that doesn't make anouk throw up. (i am a very dedicated mother) purina is crap, i do not recommend it.
- watching Dexter continuously and almost religiously. it keeps me up at night, i do it on purpose so that i can fall asleep quick with out thoughts of my life to enter my dreams. it works out.
- no one talks to me much, via computer or in real life. i've drifted.
- secretly hoping in the back of my mind that something great will happen to me. except i know from experience that bad things happen all at once so that you don't have to deal with it all the time. so i'm just waiting around for some other bad thing to happen. unless what already happened wasn't bad?
- planning my trip to somewhere. europe i've decided. it can save me money, i can stay with relatives. i've got to brush up on my french. thats what i'm saving up for now. kinda nice to know i can leave far away with out missing anything but my cat.
well its time to go torch my brulee & watch dexter. what a bad habit. audra is mad at me. i wish someone liked me. no one does these days.
