since i’m moving back to milpitas sometime this summer i am cleaning out the room.

RANDOM THINGS I HAVE FOUND:

- FIVE THOUSAND neon bracelets spelling out the name “ecko.” if you don’t think that is funny then you just don’t know.
- a dozen or so dried out roses, ranging from such occassions: “i got this for you,” “i f_ed up, sorry,” “just because,” and high school corsages. note: i do not like roses anymore. AHEM COUGH.
- a bottle of skyy vodka that is still 3/4 full from someone’s birthday. skyy is so very gross.
- an authentic grass skirt from the tahitian dance days.
- an easy-bake oven from the man that i used once. uhhh sorrry.
- cds like “drop n harmony,” “one voice,” and “dru hill.”
- approximately one million pages of my life documented from 7th grade up until senior year of high school. NO JOKE.
- one billion letters from different significant people contained within a single shoebox.

and thats just the closet…

so i have realized that my seven deadliest sin is pride.

…and it has been with me my whoooooooole life.

the worst trait of a leo is pride.

i am very bored.

i am so bored that i am reminiscing on past lives. i am getting old. milpitas is a different life. my room is half high school, half community college. even though i say i won’t i will probably miss sacto when i move back home. i think i will miss the house the most and my big ass room. my room and closet in sac is big enough for a couple who has been married 10 years, and i don’t have to share it with anybody. i will miss that. i will also miss doing whatever i want at 3am.

ohhhhhhhh natomas.

sometimes i wish i had a hot ass body like those women on “dancing with the stars” (and no i do not watch “dancing with the stars”). they literally shake everything they have and its not even gross at all, plus they are super graceful, and i wish i was that graceful. i’m a klutz. i bump into things that are not even in my pathway. i don’t know how, but it happens…

i’m all for equality between a man and a woman, i consider myself a feminist in my own right, and i try to keep the boys in check when they refer to a female as p___y even when i know they are joking.

but i will openly and honestly admit to the following things:

1. i don’t know how to grill meat. today i couldn’t figure out why the chicken wasn’t getting charred on the grill. apparently even though the grill itself is hot, you still have to close the lid for the heat to build up.

2. i only learned how to pop the hood of my car last year. yeah yeah. ok, i got so much shit from jeff because i didn’t know how to do this.

3. i have a tendency to leave my headlights on foggy days so when i get back to my car the battery is dead. i have no idea how the hell to jump a car, i probably never will. but i bought cables in january cause i figure some man will come along and help me.

there, bbq’s and cars…. my weaknesses on blast for males everywhere to enjoy.

cause sometimes good people do stupid things:

IT BURNS.

note: i ONLY go on aim when i am in milpitas and jeff is living in another house. i have a super secret aim which i have not disclosed to anyone but the man. do not attempt to find me…….. not like anyone wants to… i have five friends.

after thinking that i have not had a favorite new musical addition since block party’s “sunday,” i now declare that amy winehouse is my newest female vocalist:

www.myspace.com/amywinehouse

there’s this inside joke going around how I DID NOT GO TO SCIENCE CAMP IN SIXTH GRADE… everyone thinks its the most hillarious shit ever.

they act like they learned secret information and i just don’t know.

and to let you all know its just NOT that funny. its not.

i’m sure hella cool ass people did not go to science camp either. like mos def and if i ever meet mos def i will say “mos, did you ever go to science camp?” and he will say “you know what, no, there was no science camp in brooklyn.”

SO THERE, MOS DEF probably DID NOT GO TO SCIENCE CAMP EITHER.

there is something so very empty about this spring break.

maybe because the weather is terrible. maybe its because its cold as ice. maybe its because i just got off my hormonal monthly peak. maybe its because i have so much time on my hands to think that i am freaking out because of the following factors: 1. the semester is half over. 2. i will be turning 24 this year. 3. i need a job after august. 4. will anyone even want to hire me? 5. can i even find a job in the crazy competitive market? 6. i worry too much about money. even at times when i don’t need to. 7. i need some warmth and sunshine.

cold lumpy weather kicks my ass. its supposed to get better after today…

girls,

i NEED to know how to keep side swept bangs, swept, and in ONE SMOOTH PIECE. is there some kind of magical trick i don’t know about??? how the hell does nicole richie keep her bangs so nice?

get at me if you have the secret.

that is all for now.
