| 5:38 pm | .:.0202.:. My cousin...Associate Producer for CNN My Aunt (who used to be my favorite, but isn't anymore) e-mailed this to my dad. I think it's so cool someone from my family is making it! CNN Presents: Black in America aired July 23rd & 24th at 9 pm ET. I don't have cable, so I wouldn't have been able to see it even if I had known about it. (CNN) -- Forty years after the death of Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., CNN took an unprecedented look at the state of black America in "CNN Presents: Black in America. The success, struggle, pain and pride. Here are some of the people who made this groundbreaking series possible. Correspondent: Soledad O'Brien Sr. Executive Producer/VP: Mark Nelson Managing Editors: Bud Bultman Jeff Reid Senior Producers: Rose Arce Elise Zeiger ( Credits cont ) Here's the behind the scenes for that special. He says that he and some of his colleagues are interviewed. And I also have my cousin's e-mail address. I'm debating on if I should e-mail him. I haven't seen him in YEARS and he's 22 and has a BA in Mass Communications from the University of Michigan. If I e-mail him, what the heck do I say?! LOL The way I'm acting, you'd think I had the personal e-mail address for Cullen Jones *snickers* Current Mood:  jubilantCurrent Music: DVD - Dragnet (The Big Seventeen) |

| 7:53 pm | .:.0186.:. London...2012...who's with me?! So I'm already planning to go to London for the 2012 Olympics. The Olympics will be July 27 to August 12 and I want to be there July 25 to August 14. That's 20 days. I doubt I'll be able to get tickets to any of the actual events (which go on sale in 2011), but 20 days is a nice vacation. Time to start planning and saving!

| 9:00 am | .:.0169.:. 'Last Lecture' professor dies 'Last lecture' professor dies of cancer PITTSBURGH - Randy Pausch, a computer science professor whose "last lecture" about facing terminal cancer became an Internet sensation and a best-selling book, has died. He was 47. Pausch died early Friday at his home in Virginia, said Anne Watzman, a spokeswoman for Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh where he worked. Pausch and his family moved there last fall to be closer to his wife's relatives. Pausch was diagnosed with incurable pancreatic cancer in September 2006. His popular last lecture in September 2007 garnered international attention and was viewed by millions on the Internet. ( Read more... ) His lecture on YouTube. It's about an hour and 15 minutes long and very touching. And get his book. It will change you. I'm getting it as soon as I get some $$. I doubt this would happen, but I'm waiting to see if any of the new stations I'm watching right now will at least mention his passing. Later editions of the news will more than likely mention it. I hope they do. edit: It was just mentioned, played a bit of his lecture. Current Mood:  blankCurrent Music: stuff on the telly |

| 12:00 pm | .:.0141.:. see...now I have a bump on my leg I'm leaving out a lot of the minor stuff from last night because 1. I don't feel like typing every little thing that happened, and 2. well I don't need to have another reason! Yesterday after church we went to In N Out for dinner (this is while still in San Jacinto) and mentioned to no one in particular that I better not get hit while crossing the drive thru because we parked on the other side of it and there was a cross walk but sometimes people don't pay attention and well anyways, Cynthia goes "don't get hit by a car." and I'm like "shut up! with my luck I'll probably trip on my feet and fall" and sure enough...I get across the drive thru okay, but ate it when I got to the grass! It was a stupid blade of grass that I tripped on! LOL But really, I think it was the little curb. I didn't lift my foot high enough and went down because where my shin hit the ground there's like this indentation and a knot so I think I hit the little curb. falling at night is always fun I get inside, check my leg and it's not bleeding so it's all good. I get food for myself and David (he wasn't going to join us because he didn't have money and I said I'd cover him) and the group of us (about 15) are eating and Erik (the new leader of Greenhouse San Jacinto) ask us to watch his food because he was going to walk his on/off gf and her friend to the car. So the guy who's cleaning up is making his rounds and I don't see him until it's too late. He took Erik's tray and tossed is and was about to take the second one, which I thought was Erik's but it wasn't, and I'm like "don't take it...the guy's coming back..." and the cleaning dude gives me this weird look and then Cynthia even says that the guy is coming back. he doesn't believe us and the group has this big 'ol laugh about it, and Cynthia calls Erik to tell him and when he comes back Erik was like "what the hell!? where's my food?!" we start laughing even more and everyone is pointing at the guy who was cleaning up and saying that he tossed it. This guy is throughly embarrassed and Cynthia is giving him a hard time so he asks Erik what burger he had and then goes to the counter and gets him another one. We were still laughing about it as we were standing outside talking. and then 2 more things, mind you it's out of order, but 2 more things that happened. Cynthia got me so frustrated. see, sometime between Friday morning and Saturday afternoon, she lost her bank card. she said she last remembered using it Friday morning when she went to the grocery store before going to work. She called the manager at the store to see if someone turned in a bank card and the answer she got was no. I told her maybe it got left at work and she was like "no I didn't take it in" so then she must have tossed it or dropped it on the ground. So last night after the church service, I'm trying to stress to her how important it is that if she doesn't cancel the card (someone brought a replacement one from her mom) to at least pay close attention to her banking statement because she could get the account wiped out. She was like "oh, it's just $1000 and they can't use it because they don't have my pin...and it's just 2 car payments and blah blah blah" I was like, fine, if you don't care about the money, then what about having your identity stolen? she was like "oh that's not going to happen" I told her but it could and she was like "well if it does, I can move and be someone else" I was getting so fucking frustrated. I was like, okay, whatever Cynthia. I was texting with Jeanine at the time and she sent me the funniest reply! She was like "Hello dumb ass god can't protect her from THAT" I laughed so hard and wanted to show Cynthia, but then more drama would have started up...and she was my way home! I kept the comment to myself. After leaving In N Out, we drop off Erik, drive around a bit to find a bathroom for David to use and then begin to head home. You would think that if you reversed the directions that were used to get there you could back home, but that wasn't so last night. We reversed the directions and ended out farther in the desert and I notice the street name changed so Cynthia turned around and went back to the MAJOR street. they we followed the directions, but going a different way and ended up back by Erik's house! WTF?! We did like a big ass circle! So Cynthia pulls into the gas station and asks how to get to Highway 79 and the guy was like "I THINK it's that way" so we went the way the gas station guy THOUGHT and it was the same way we went before, but this time we went more right and bam! Highway 79! By this time I REALLY had to go to the bathroom and I DEMANDED that Cynthia find someplace that was open (by this time it was after midnight) and we found a Denny's right before the 10 Freeway. I went to the bathroom, came out and we were on our way home. Got home about 1:50 am after dropping David off, then I got on the computer (snagged the latest episode of Doctor Who and the Confidential since I read some things about that and wanted to see for myself) and then went to bed about 3:50 am. I had some weird dreams that only Cynthia, David and this other guy Anthony would understand. I don't know what I should do...want to do or anything. I'm just clueless. But the ONLY thing that keeps coming up is I don't want to loose my friends. It's so damn frustrating. I'm hungry. Colleen asked me what we should have for lunch. I felt like Mexican, but her sugar levels are high so she can't have that. So I said Arbys.One day I'll get my Del Taco Del's Deal again. Oh! I will have pictures from Saturday. I had to use a disposable camera so whenever I finish the camera (I think I have like 10-12 more shots) and get it developed, I'll have pictures. lol One more thing...my sister and her husband are |

| 8:12 am | .:.0127.:. Every 15 Minutes Okay...I have a bone to pick with the complainers about the Every 15 Minutes program. So this one school handled it differently than other schools (and my high school) did, but it's a good program! If you don't know about the Every 15 Minutes Program, check out this website. My high school did it my junior or senior year right around Prom and it was effective. At least to me it was. I remember the Grim Reaper coming into class, saying the name of the student and that they were killed by a drunk driver as they took them away. Then around lunch time we had an outdoor assembly complete with crashed cars, fire trucks, ambulances and lifeless classmates bodies. Then we moved to the gym where a "memorial service" was held for the family and friends and it was heart breaking. effective, but heartbreaking. I think one person from my graduating class died because of a drunk driver. I knew her. she was a friend. It was just shy of a year after we graduated from high school when she was killed. Back to the bone I have to pick...apparently at this one school here in southern Cali. I don't remember the school, but apparently the close friends or whatever, weren't told it was a drill and took it all literally, got hysterical, and then when they found out what was going on, they were angry. ANGRY! Really? You get angry because you're taught a lesson? I don't get it, but okay. Though I'm sure I'd get UPSET if I found out the way these kids did, but I don't think it'd get to anger. I will forever support the Every 15 Minutes Program. It's a great program and delivers a great message that all students in high school (and maybe even college) should hear...see...experience...before it's too late. edit: I found the article about the high school that had the DUI simulation, if you will. From reading the article, I don't think it was an Every 15 Minutes associated thing. That isn't cool. Current Mood: sympatheticCurrent Music: TV - GMA |

| 2:04 pm | .:.0068.:. who's going to participate in Earth Hour? Today is Earth Hour day...so please remember lights out at 8pm - 9pm (your local time) and lets try to repair the earth our children will inherit. For those that don’t know much about it or just would like to be more inform about its purpose and benefits please check out www.EarthHour.org or hop over to Wikipedia for more information. it’s only an hour, use that time to talk to family/friends, play a board game by candle light, take a nap, or just sit and darkness and reflex on the year thus far...every little bit helps. I'm going to sleep for that hour (if not longer)...but I'm going to miss tv for an hour. lol I swear I'm not addicted to tv. I don't know what I'm going to do for that hour of darkness...especially when my apartment gets really dark at night. I wonder if I can convince my dad to participate in Earth Hour. I'll just tell him all the cool people are doing it. lol Current Mood: sick |
