A stairway to heaven...

Texas is awesome... Those Longhorns band members played 2 Led Zepplin songs: one was Stairway To Heaven.



I love the BCS.

Team India.

Things that I hate:

Stupid dancing shows.

I think I am and have growing up a bit and have not been watching so many stupid reality shows. I will admit that I do like my usual VH-1 shows (Rock of Love has a soft spot in my heart still) and The Soup on E!, but I decided to watch the new dance show on NBC (something about the worlds best dancers with the host being that Lord of the Dance guy... Which, on a side note, I saw him in Las Vegas back in 2003 with Patrick and it was pretty bad ass.) which happened to be on TV after the SNL Sports Extra. Now, I usually like dance shows, not so much the Dancing With the Stars show (only because I am not a big fan of those the show picked to be on as a contestant and the ones that I do like end up being kicked off the show in the first few episodes) but I like to see what people can do and what they can push their bodies limits to do. So there are about 8 country teams that are competing in 2 types of dance competitions. One is a group dance and the other is a solo dance. I only want team India to win only because of my love for Bollywood dancing.

Bears.... Beats.... Battlestar Galatica.

Winner, winner, chicken dinner..

So, before the Rose Bowl, Paul and I made a "gentleman's bet" on what the score will be for the game between USC and Penn State... I wrote it down just to be sure. Remember, Paul is a fan of sports and knows stats... Me, I know nothing and my picks in most sports (like the brackets we do for March Madness) is biased on which mascot I think is better then the others (I thought a Trojan warrior would totally wail on a stupid 'Nittany Lion'), or which team has players that I actually know (That Mark Sanchez guy that is the quarterback for USC) or team colors (I actually like Penn States blue and white more then the Trojans red and yellow, but my Godmother/ Aunt is a USC alumni and Los Angeles is my hometown)... Is my 'system' shallow, yes. But it works for me.


2pm:





And here is what the score was at about 5:30pm:



Where is Vegas when I need it! Ugh.

He's just a poor boy from a poor family... Spare him his life from this monstrosity///

So, Paul and I are watching the Rose Bowl on TV (Paul's parents got tickets to see the game and are sitting in near the Penn State end zone, lucky!) and it is currently half time. Between the commercials for the playing college teams schools (those commercials that are pretty much saying "send your kids to USC or Penn State"), the schools marching bands were playing in the field. The USC band played some random songs that I could not figure out what they were BUT Penn State played 2 songs by Queen. One was Bohemian Rhapsody and the other was Bicycle Race. This is great.




[edit:]
They (I don't know which band it was) played a White Stripes song too (7 Nation Army). Interesting.

[edit]
They (again, I am not sure what band) played a song by The Offspring... Snaps, now we hear the theme from Rocky... WTF. That's gotta be from Penn State.

Hello, 2009.

wooohooo! Its 2009 now!

NYE 2008

Happy New Years.

Only 1.5 more hours... I am on my 2nd Screwdriver. I am enjoying the Vodka and Orange Juice. I am feeling a little woozy now.

Score.

Time for our NYE tradition; Buca de Beppo pizza and lots of drinks. And a marathon of How I Met Your Mother.


Wooo.

In the strangest fashion... you start a chain reaction///

Song of the day: Mute Math> Noticed

So, I am currently packing things up for the big move to St. George. What a way to spend my vacation! Anyways, I have been listening to Pandora and heard a song by Mute Math that I love so much... Enjoy!

Careful - when you open
it's easy to be broken
In the strangest fashion
you start a chain reaction

You look my way- something's bounding her way
& I wonder if I ever felt this before
& all this time oblivious
to what you make so obvious
I can't believe I never noticed my heart before...

You are reaching for something that is beating
I can't believe I never noticed my heart before
Over & again, racing out of my skin
I can't believe I never noticed my heart before

At least until I never noticed

You & Your ways
capture what I've misplaced
In the perfect fashion
Just watch my heart's reaction
This point of view is nothing that I'm used to
& I won't close my eyes cause they're onto you

All this time it was staring me blind
I can't believe I never noticed my heart before
You are reaching for something that is beating
I can't believe I never noticed my heart before
Over & again, racing out of my skin
I can't believe I never noticed my heart before
Atleast until I never nooticed you

Waoooooohhh....ooohhhh...

The only time I ever noticed my heart
Is when I noticed you
The only time I ever noticed my heart
Is when I noticed you

You are reaching for something that is beating
I can't believe I never noticed my heart before
Over & again, racing out of my skin
I can't believe I never noticed my heart before

Things I love: #2871

Things I love:

I don't think I have said this before, but Ben Affleck as Keith Olbermann on SNL is classic. Another reason why I love Olbermann.

I want a girl with extensions in her hair... Bamboo earrings, at least two pair///

Song of the day: LL Cool J> Around The Way Girl

So, I am at the point where I want to start selling all those crocheted bags I have been making out of plastic bags. I have about 12 now, all different sizes and colors and styles... I don't know how much money I would be making but I think that I should get rid of them. I could use the extra money too.

I am happy that I am making some money off the things I sell at half.com tho. I know it isn't going to make me millions or anything like that, but having some money is better then having no money and lots of unwanted music, movies and books in my closet. I just wish that more people would buy my things.


Help!

12/13 = awesomeness!

C: What does a little Mexican girl love more than anything else in the world? D: Hmmmmmmmmm... tacos.

So in a few days, I will become another year. December 13th. The big 2-5. I know to some, the simple fact of having another birthday isn't much to write home about or to even contemplate for that matter. I have never really been a huge fan of birthdays. I usually like to keep the event low key and something small that I only share with my family and close friends (if I have any).

Lately, I have been thinking about things in my life a little more in depth then I usually do. I suppose this is my quarterly epiphany. I usually go thru this spell of being happy and content for several months on end and then suddenly, out of the blue, something happens and I end up questioning my path of life. The topics range from my academic goals, career aspirations, lack of friends and my romantic life with Paul.

I have come to one realization. Despite how immature I may think I am, I am more of a grown up then a lot of adults I know in the world. I just wish that more people thought of me the same way.

Ugh. 4 more days till I can finally rent a car in America!

She don't believe in shooting stars but she believes in shoes & cars///
