    .:.0416.:. So you want to be a Notary Public
    On August 18, 2010 I will be attending a seminar on becoming a Notary Public. That same day, I will take a 2 hour test (and hopefully pass) so that I can be one step closer to being a Notary Public.

    If you live in California and would like more information, click here:

    I am a proud member of Golden State Notary


    Yup, I registered and paid for the seminar that’s to take place on the date mentioned above. After the seminar, I take the test. After the test, I get the results...15 days to a month later! Passing is a 70.

    Either I’ll obsess about those 15 days to 30 days or I’ll be so busy with school stuff that I’ll forget until someone asks me or I get the pass (or fail, though I hope not) letter in the mail. The end of September I should know one way or the other. Should I not pass, I can test again. I hope I doesn’t come to that though.

    (Premieres Tonight @ 8/7c on ABC)

    if it were possible, would you want to see 6 months into the future?

    me: without a doubt, yes I would want to know. I'd also want to know the path, the ups & downs, I took to get there.

    I guess a follow up question would be, if the 6 months into the future were bad, would I change how I am now? I don't think I would.

    .:.0307.:. So...I did it
    I was a "big girl" and went to BJ's by myself. I saw Kelly but the section she was working was busy, the patio area hadn't been cleaned so I got to sit at the bar. Oo fun!

    My server was Jamie. She was nice. Kind of pushy (barely set my purse down and she was asking what I wanted!), but that was okay. I ordered the pomegranate sunset (don't remember what was in it, besides pomegranate but it was good)*, flipped through the menu and decided on the fettuccine Alfredo with grilled chicken.

    from the time I ordered to the time my food came, I waited at the most, 10 mins. seemed a lot longer than that tho. Sad thing, the guy sitting next to me had been waiting 45 mins and all he ordered was a salad...and I got my food before he did! Manager ended up paying his bill.

    I ate and watched like 4 different sporting events. there was just too much going on that I couldn't focus.

    I ate as much as I could (wanted to take a pic of my food & drink but felt silly doing that at the bar) and got the rest of it to go. There's enough left for dinner!

    I paid the same amount at CPK as I did at BJ's and today brought home much more food!

    .:.0293.:. i c icons
    # reply to this post and i will pick five of your icons.
    # make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons i picked.
    # other people can then comment you and make their own post.
    # this will, allegedly, create a never-ending cycle of icon glee.

    [info]teamdean picked:

    I've had these icons for so long that I honestly can't remember why I picked all of them

    : Pushing Daisies was an awesome show! ABC didn't give it enough credit and jerked the fan around by canceling it, then bring it back, then canceling it again but saying they're going to air the remaining episodes this summer (I think)

    : I don't remember what episode of nu!Doctor Who this is from, but I'm sure it's from one of the earliest season 1 episodes where the Doctor takes Rose to visit far off places

    : just like her a lot. like the gradiant on top

    : what's not to like about Dolly Parton!? She seems to have so much fun singing and this icon captures it. plus she looks pretty

    : at the time when I picked this Ashlee icon, I wasn't too fond of her. I'm still not, but with the help of twitter, she's really growing on me. I will admit, that I blast her music. it's fun to dance & clean to

    .:.0263.:. Real women have curves

    I’m a big woman. No I’m fat. There’s no hiding that fact. I can’t shop at Forever 21 (never have and never will), I can’t wear the sometimes cute clothes the “It” female star wear, nor would I probably want to. Damn it, I’m not a board! I have curves…in more than one place for that matter. The other day my best friend made a comment in her journal about coming across a couple of websites with clothing for “real women”…women with curves.

     

    Apparently this offended someone who reads her journal and that person made comments (in their own journal) implying that my friend was saying she (this other girl) wasn’t a “real” woman. My friend never said that. This girl also goes on to say that she has a vagina therefore she is a woman. No one’s disputing that.

     

    But then we get to the “meat” of the matter. This girl goes on to say that my friend implied that she was more of a woman because she has a “shapely ass”, big boobs and “meat” on her bones. MY FRIEND DID NOT SAY THAT!

     

    In a population where there are more women who aren’t boards…don’t wear clothing labeled in the single digits, it’s HARD to find cute clothes. It’s HARD to find clothes that don’t make you look even larger than you already are.

     

    I don’t know why this girl who made those accusations was getting bent out of shape. Did she get pissed off when Josefina Lopez wrote the play “Real Women Have Curves” or co-screenwrote the movie of the same name starring America Ferrera in 2002? I surely hope not.

     

    Your boney hand is no match to my 264 lbs of fat! And yes, I really do weigh that much

    .:.0245.:. Wonderful Doctor Who news!
    Before I went to bed last night/early this morning, I found out some AWESOME news.

    It has to do with Doctor Who and the wonderful Gareth David-Lloyd!

    I was so happy when I found out about it too! (then my mom killed my happiness but I won't get into that)

    It started with the word TARDIS being in this word search game I was playing and how I thought the word before that was Gallifrey but I was mistaken (the word was really Starfury).

    Anyways...this awesome news?

    full of win behind here! )

    That was just so awesome to find last night!

    .:.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

    Here's the behind the scenes for that special. He says that he and some of his colleagues are interviewed. I haven't watched it yet, but I will shortly. The clip is on the right hand side of the page. It's 4 mins long and he's at roughly the 2:35 spot. When my aunt mentioned that he lost weight, wow. He lost A LOT of weight! If it weren't for his name being put up, I wouldn't have known! lol

    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*

    .:.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!

    .:.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.

    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.

    .:.0168.:. I had no idea that's who that was
    I just saw the news and it's so heartbreaking.



    another person from the high school that I went to died.



    I didn't know him, but it always home when it's someone who went to the same high school as you.

    .:.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.

    .:.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

    .:.0004.:. Pastor passed away
    I don't know any other information other than he passed away last night and his family was with him.

    There looks like there is going to be a memorial service on Sunday during the church service.

    I'm going to be at church pretty much all day today.

    and it's raining. I hate the rain right now.
