So, Y and I had this grand plan for like EVER!! This grand plan of ours was to walk to this certain library (which happens to have a decent selection of English books,) pick a few books we think we might like, borrow them, and bring them back home and read them. A lovely plan, isn't it? So why didn't we put feet to our plan ages ago? Because that particular library is kinda far away. And today, we found out that "kinda far away" is 2 hours and 30 minutes of walking!! It may not sound so far to you, but it is. My feet are reminding me of the crazy distance we walked right now as they throb with pain, and no, I was not wearing heals or boots, or anything uncomfortable! I was wearing my super comfy tennies. Anyway, that's 2 hours and a half there, and another 2 hours and a half back, which adds up to be 5 hours of walking all together! Oh.My.Gawd!
But I don't regret it. The plan was indeed a great one, because
#1 we won't have to worry about exercise for a whole week as we covered that all today, and
#2 we got 3 fabulous books to keep us company in the evenings:
The Mummy-Anne Rice
High Noon-Nora Roberts
Servant of the Bones-Anne Rice
And
#3 we had yum-yum sandwhiches (which, oh yeah, I made!!) for a picnic under the cherry blossoms, and it was a great motivator to keep our feet moving, cuz we planned on picnicking at our destination.
Y and I also spent a damnable amount of "sister time" together. We laughed about stupid things, and reminded each other of how silly we were when we were shorter. We also motivated ourselves to get home with a movie: Sixth Sense. I love that movie! Spooky and sweet. And we are ending the day with a good dinner of rawmen and vegie soup and the books we borrowed. I'm reading High Noon by Nora Roberts and although I'm only through the first 3 chapters, (yeah, I snail through books. Slow reader) and I love the book! Nora Roberts' writing stile is so Fing righteous! You can practically smell the perfume, or the B.O of the guy characters, or here them laugh, or feel the pain when they cry! She's A-mazing! So I think I'll go back to reading now, 'cuz honestly, it's way more fun then blogging.

I haven't been so faithful with blogging these days, and the best excuse I can come up with is plain old "lazy-ness", which is quite pathetic if I may say so myself. But I'm gunna try to be more consistent from now on, (note the consistency of the 3 posts below) so don't forget to forgive me. Ahah.
But what have I been doing all this time anyway? Well, I've been drawing, believe it or not, and you can check it out on my art blog! http://eyeliner-thesketchmaniac.blogspot.com/2009/02/mr-depp.html
I've also been doing very nerdy things like, (don't laugh) scrap-booking, reading novels (Princess Diaries and Eclipse, etc), and not-too-nerdy things like movie viewing and exercising. Oh, and by the way, I'm super good at scrap-booking! Ask Y if you don't believe me.
Sooooo, those are the things I've been at recently that you're allowed to know. The other stuff...you don't wanna know. Loves to all!
Oh, and a Happy Valentine's Day to you all! (<-- a bit late, eh?)

Picture Post :) |
So, this post is just some thoughts that were racing through my head as I was writing this post. Tons of pictures too from over the past few monthes. :)
Girls can't drive
Girls just plain suck at driving. It's a known fact that girls are worse drivers then guys, and I was forced to be faced with this reality today, and it wasn't pleasant. I felt like puking through the whole ride! God forbid! This is why I will never get a driver's lisence. I'm not up to endangering my own life and the lives of those who are stupid enough to trust their future in my clumsy hands. The only place I am capable of driving anyone safely, is to the grave. And it's not just me. The same goes for every girl driver out there. I'm serious!
It's Not Cold Enough
It's the first of December, but you couldn't tell that from the weather. It's just wrong. I was fine in a T-shirt today when I am suppose to be shivering in a sweater and a fur coat! Bah! Where's the snow? How the hell will Santa get around in his sleigh without snow? I've been a good girl all year in hopes for good presants under the tree, but all my efforts will be in vain if Santa won't be able to get around because there ain't no snow? Damn global warming!
Twilight
'Twilight' deserved a better director and funding, but despite all it's flaws, I still liked it. I'm a helpless fan of the book series. I mean, I read 'Twilight' 4 times, Eclipse 3 times, and New Moon 2 times, and I'm still up for another round. But seriously, what was that phyco director thinking? She almost as good as ruined the magic of the book with her pathetic attempts at directing. It's sad. So sad.
But anyways, my favorite charactors of the film were Emette and Charlie and Charlisle. They were the best part of the film. Sadly, Robert Pattinson was so NOT in sync with my idea of what Edward Cullen was suppose to look and act and talk like. But still, I liked the movie, and that's that.Relationships
Relationships are messy things. So if you're in one, it's only a matter of time before it shows you it's true colors and stabs you in the back. If you're not in one, you are extremly lucky. Enjoy your freedom, and be happy and content. Like I am! Life couldn't be simpler. Guys are wonderful. Don't get me wrong on that one, but I like them as friends, and I don't want to risk a good friendship by trying out a "relationship". I mean, it's rare that a relationship actually works out well. That's why you're still single! That's why I'm still single! That's why your hot neighbor is still single, and that old lady across the street is also still single. Relationships are sticky, and finding your "One True Love" takes a lifetime. So, if you're young, (like I am) then I suggest that you quit worring your silly head over being single and finidng your "True Love", and trying to flirt with that hottie that obviously isn't interested in you, and enjoy your youth! :)

Christmas
It's Christmas time. But Christmas will never be the same as it was when I was a 'lil kid. I remember the excitement of counting the presants under the tree, and comparing the numbers with my siblings. I remember the excitement of Christmas Eve where I could hardly sleep a wink because my head was full of the mystery of what lay within the shiny wrapping papers. I remember the excitement of ripping off wrapping paper after wrapping paper off the presants and squieling with delight to find that I got what I wanted without even knowing what I wanted. I remember the excitement of Chrstmas dinner, and how I stuffed my self silly, and couldn't move or breath properly for hours after that! Yeah, those were the days. But although, Chrismtas isn't nearly as cool as how it was back then, it's now cool in a different way.
