word of the week: ca-coo!

This week's word is brought to you by the letter "C"

cookie, cookie, cookie starts with c!

 And yes, you read it correctly, the word of the week is ca-coo.

I'm not sure how to spell it, but i did my best to make it how it sounds. I'm sorry for lacking a more intellectual word this week, but I'm lazy and it's late.

Ca-coo is the sound hootie the owl makes according to a gay pirate. Here's Hootie:

And apparently, he's also very opinionated about everyone's lives and if you don't listen to him, he will stare at you and creep you out. Well, he creeps me out at least, but I guess some people like to be stared at.

Now, since you are all a little dumber for having read this post, I will end it now before it gets worse.

TONIGHT is the night!

yes, you heard me correctly- tonight is the night! for what you might ask? well, on this day- tuesday, september 28, 2010 i will finally clean my room. it's shocking i know, but this day had to come sooner or later. plus, i'm pretty sure my dad wasn't kidding when he told me he was going to throw a lit match in here and just burn everything.... now i think that is a bit over-dramatic considering the only thing in my room is clothes and books and musical stuff. but anyway, before tomorrow morning, i will have a clean room, and after i finish this entry, nothing is going to stand in my way. so i will be m.i.a for the next little bit, but don't call urgent care- i didn't pass out today, i'm just cleaning my room.

Zac Efron, please leave me alone

Last night I had this crazy dream that I got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, and I got attacked by Zac Efron. This is when I realized I was in fact just sleepwalking and I ran into the giant bouquet of High School Musical balloons left from my late surprise birthday party my amazing friends threw for me. Needless to say, this disoriented me just a little, but as soon as I came to my senses and realized I wasn't being stalked by a former Disney channel star (anymore), I was able to get back to sleep with a smile on my face, and my machete by my side.

The point of this awesome anecdote is to simply say that even though it's Moody Monday, when everyone is allowed to be a little grumpy (although I've heard my grumpiness is actually quite enjoyable) I am the opposite of grumpy. Not only did I fall asleep with a smile on my face, but I awoke with one as well. And even though I have to cringe through an hour this morning with people attempting to play guitar, then spend 2  hours in the gym running around since I'm sure we won't be able to play tennis because of the rain, I will still have a smile on my face. Then, after spending the afternoon with my class of 13 (coincidence?!) 3 year-olds, I will still have that same smile on my face.

Now, I bet you are wondering- "Why is she so darn happy on a Monday?" Well, a good guess would be that there is a new episode of How I Met Your Mother on tonight, but then again, it could be something entirely different.

Peace and Blessings,

so great a salvation

"I woke up this morning, and I just had to thank God for my life."

Now, I decided that I wasn't going to let my blog get too religious just because anyone who knows me knows that I am not the type of person to try to push my beliefs on anyone, and the last thing I would ever want to do is offend anyone. However, when I feel the love of God in my life this strongly, I can't help but share it.

I've been feeling extremely blessed lately, and I know that it's because I'm finally letting God have control of my life, and I'm trusting Him instead of doing what I want. This song was in my head when I woke up, so I hope that someone else can draw some inspiration from it too. 

OC Supertones- So Great a Salvation

"Why me God? Why should You choose me?

On your team God, can You use even me?

I think a few years back
On a road that headed to nowhere
Now that You found me
I can see that You were always there
So great a salvation
But to You my Jesus what am I worth?
It's quiet times like this
I feel I get a glimpse of Heaven right here on earth

Oh, hold me in your arms of love
Sometimes I swear I feel your heartbeat
I could never ever thank You enough
But here's my life for whatever it's worth "

short and sweet

since I'm not allowed to stay at home tonight, I don't have as much time as I would like to do today's entry, so I will give you a short and sweet quote for say what?! saturday.

“Everything happens for a reason. Every action has a reaction. Always remember that whats meant to be will always find a way to come about.”

thankful thursday

for thankful thursday- i would like to say how thankful i am for my amazing mom. she gets on my nerves 99% of the time, but we love each other unconditionally. I mean, how awesome is it that I share all of my favorite youtube videos with her and she calls me to tell me she made pork chop sandwiches for dinner?! plus, she keeps up with Ladasha as well as Mary Francis and is understanding about both of them. Also, who has a mom who knows all of their deepest secrets and is open enough to have as a friend on facebook as well as sharing a link to their personal blog? well, this girl does, and it's a good feeling to know that i have nothing to hide from the person who gave me life. So Madre, this goes out to you. I love you more than I can tell in this blog, and I thank God for giving me such a loving mother. I know we have our differences, but just blame it on Ladasha. 
Love ya Momma.

word of the week- Brobdingnagian

Today's word of the week is brought to you by the letter "B" (I've also decided to start teaching you all sign language as well. Sorry I missed "A", but just look it up yourselves, lazy butts.)

 

 

Brobdingnagian: gigantic, enormous.

Go ahead, make your inappropriate jokes, I'll give you a minute.

Okay, now that it's out of your system, I would like to talk about the brobdingnagian crowd on campus today. Apparently, today is the fall fling, and we all know that one mention of free food sends community college kids into a frenzy. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to wait in the line extending the length of campus just to get a free taco that I'm pretty sure is made of the same meat-like product we were forced to eat in elementary school. It is pretty conveniently located next to the tennis courts, however. So no worries of passing out today- if I feel faint, I can just walk past the creepy clown (which I still haven't figured out his purpose) and grab a taco.

Actually, come to think of it, the creepy clown might be a pleasant change of pace next to the nosy old woman next to me that is completely blown away by my netbook. Yes, it's small and pink and can work on battery and wireless internet! Amazing, I know!

give peace a chance

 

Happy International Day of Peace! 

Wouldn't life be much easier if we all got along? Well, since hell hasn't frozen over, pigs can't fly, and Nickelback is still trying to perform music, I doubt that it's going to happen anytime soon. What we can do, however, is dedicate a day to it. So go out, and give peace a chance....you might just like it!

peace now! <3 LD

chats with LaDasha

well, it's moody monday, and i'm not in the mood to write, so i'm going to let my good friend LaDasha (La-A) take care of today's entry. 

"Girrrl, I know you ain't too busy to write your own blog, so why don't you get off that lazy white butt of yours and do it yourself? What's wrong with you? You know I don't care about no blog."

Well, it was worth a try. She's pretty good at giving me "cultural" advice, so perhaps she'll be more helpful another day. 

She did, however, ask me to share this. Happy Monday.
