I am coming home tomorrow!!!! I LOVE NEW YORK!!!

So, over the weekend, i watched two VERY good movies. i love when that happens.

Numero uno: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. yeah yeah i know...i haven't seen it yet. I didn't really know what to expect. i knew the basic plot...girl erases boy from memory...and then boy does the same. but the way the movie is shot...how everything flows....BRILLIANT!

Numero Dos: Garden State. had NO idea what to expect. I don't especially like Scrubs...so i was a little skeptical. But it was SOOOOO good! just as good as numero uno. the soundtrack is amazing too.

I will give them both A's.

So i finally finished reading 'A Million Little Pieces'. It was really good....the contemporary prose took a little bit of getting used to at first. But it makes me never want to do drugs.

Right now, i'm reading 'Gilead'...this year's pulitzer winner. It's a very slow, mellow, reflective type of book. Very well written though. I just started that one.

In the wings are 'kite runner'-Khaled hosseni, 'War Trash'-Ha Jin and 'The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time'-mark Haddon.

I LOVE SUMMER READING!!!!

any more good books?! (i don't like mystery novels....i get impatient and skip to the end before i'm halfway done...then the whole book is ruined)

How does one reply to a comment like, "you look like you're smart". Is that a compliment or a diss?!!! what does smartness look like? i was not wearing my dorko glasses, btw.

On the flip side, i've had people ask me, 'you're smart?"

interestingly enough, all the people who say i look smart are white....and all those who are surprised by my great intelligence (pwahahaha) are asian?!!!!

thoughts?!

STUPID ALLERGIES!!!

are there walgreens stores in NY?  i can't seem to remember....

my song of the moment:

We're Not Going To Take It - Twisted Sisters

Oh We're Not Gonna Take It
no, We Ain't Gonna Take It
oh We're Not Gonna Take It Anymore

we've Got The Right To Choose it 
there Ain't No Way We're losing
this Is Our Life, This Is Our Song
we'll Fight The Powers That Be
Just don't Pick Our Destiny 'cause
you Don't Know Us, You Don't Belong

oh We're Not Gonna Take It
no, We Ain't Gonna Take It
oh We're Not Gonna Take It Anymore

oh You're So Condescending
your Gall Is Never Ending
we Don't Want Nothin', Not A Thing From You
your Life Is Trite And Jaded
boring And Confiscated
if That's Your Best, Your Best Won't Do

oh
we're Right/yeah
we're Free/yeah
we'll Fight/yeah
you'll See/yeah

oh We're Not Gonna Take It
no, We Ain't Gonna Take It
oh We're Not Gonna Take It Anymore

oh We're Not Gonna Take It
no, We Ain't Gonna Take It
oh We're Not Gonna Take It Anymore
no Way!

oh.....................
oh.....................
we're Right/yeah
we're Free/yeah
we'll Fight/yeah
you'll See/yeah

we're Not Gonna Take It
no, We Ain't Gonna Take It
we're Not Gonna Take It Anymore

we're Not Gonna Take It, No!
no, We Ain't Gonna Take It
we're Not Gonna Take It Anymore

Yesterday...93 degrees

Today....56 degrees

WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON!!!! now it's FREEZING...where is the MILD temperatures...likes the 70's?!!!!!

WHY IS IT SO HOT?!  what is wrong with the weather here?!!!  how did it go from 60 degrees to 90 degrees overnight?!!!!! what happened to all the other degrees in between?!  last week, i was still wearing sweaters....this week, i wish i were wearing nothing. 

I am saddened by the fact that i have to return to work today.  It makes me depressed everytime i think about it.  I had a really nice two days off...

I must say...having a bad cough provides the best ab workout ever. my tummy is looking better than ever after being sick. but i'm almost at 100% again. Those two days really helped. i'm probably at 95%....just some occassional coughing...YAY thank God.

Time to start exercising. While i was on my sickbed, I promised myself that i would start running...keep myself healthier so that a mere cold won't render me bed bound for 2 weeks ever again.
