dark dove chocolate..
I wrote this last Friday or Saturday. The damn Tmail server wouldn't let me send this post! Ugh.
"I wasn't feeling too happy last night. I ate some fresh pecans, popped in a dark Dove chocolate and read the inside wrapper:
"It's definitely a bubble-bath day."
How true! Why?? There's a lot of stuff going on between me and my roommates at this current location. I am deeply concerned for my happiness at the new apartment. I have a big problem with not saying anything and let people walk all over me. And, if once I say something and draw the line, I am instantly hated, disliked, and called a bitch by those who used to walk all over me and disregard my feelings. I'll have to figure out something. I have things of mine in the kitchen and I can't use them because my roommates don't clean what they use, so I end up cleaning so I can use it. It always goes on like this."
*sigh*

interesting website..
I am also thinking about attending the Deaf Native conference which will be held near Globe, Arizona this June. The reason why I meantioned this Deaf Native conference is because they offer some kind of dream analysis workshop, so I wanna get exposure to different point of views. It should be interesting!

British Sign Language
Thanks to my best bud, Evan, for this story:
A young guy out on the town with his mates spies the girl of his dreams across the dance floor. Having admired her from a far he finally gets up the courage to talk to her. Everything goes better than expected and she agrees to accompany him on a date the following Saturday evening.
Saturday night the man arrives at her house with flowers and candy. To his surprise, she answers the door in nothing but a towel. "I'm sorry," she exclaims, "I am running a bit late. Please come in and I'll introduce you to my parents who will entertain you while I finish getting dressed. I should warn you, though, they are both Deaf."
With this she ushers him into the living room, introduces him to her parents and promptly disappears. As you can imagine, this is a little uncomfortable, as both of the parents are completely silent. Dad is sitting in his armchair watching cricket on TV, and Mum is busy knitting.
After about ten minutes of complete silence, Mum jumps from her chair, pulls up her skirt, pulls down her knickers, and pours a glass of water over her backside. Just as suddenly, Dad launches himself across the room, bends her over the couch, and takes her from behind. He then sits back down in his chair and balances a match stick in front of his eye. The room is plunged back into eerie silence and the young man is shocked into disbelief. After a further ten minutes, the daughter returns fully dressed and ready for the evening.
The date is a complete disaster with the young man completely distracted by the on goings earlier in the living room. At the end of the night, the girl asks, "What's the matter? Have I done something wrong?"
"No, it's not you," he replied, "It's just that the strangest thing happened while I was waiting for you and I am still a bit shocked. Well, first your Mother jumps from her chair, lifts up her skirt, pulls down her panties, and throws a glass of water over her behind. Then, as if that weren't enough, your Father races from his chair, leans her over the couch and does her from behind. He then sits back down and places a match-stick by his eye."
"Oh, is that all?" replies the girl. The man can't believe her casual response.
"Mum was simply saying, 'Are you going to get this asshole a drink?' and Dad was replying, 'No, fuck him - I'm watching the match.'"
Feeling balanced today..
I was kinda tired of my sister teasing me that having one earring makes me lopsided. So, now, I have both ears pierced! Bitch can shut her mouth! ;) ILY2, sis!
Ahh. Feels good to have a little balance!

I forget how beautiful Arizona sunrises could be. And imagine how the sunsets would look like?! I love living here! ;)
I wish I got a good digital camera because this Sidekick II doesn't do this picture justice! :(

last saturday..
I went to 2 parties last Saturday. Both were really fun! First one was Close to My Heart hosted in the early afternoon by Vee and TJ (that pic of TJ and Vee in the kitchen) at his home. It's a stamping party. Chlms was there (see pic of us), too! Fun! And, the other one was Adam's birthday party in the evening at a restaurant ZTejas something in Paradise Valley. Here's a pic of Adam looking a little drunk, but he wasn't! We went to a bar after the last party.
good eatin'!
At a first glance, you would read the neon sign, "Ta o Sah a o", but upon a closer look, you'll read the painted "Tacos Sahuayo."
Andrew introduced me and Robert to food from shacks or stands on the streets. Some of them would be 24 hours. We went to this one where they sell big burritos for 3 bucks each. There's a lot of meat in their burritos!
Very delicious and great for that midnight hunger pains!
If you're ever in Phoenix, Az, you'll find this shack on wheels near the area northwest of 30th Street and McDowell. It's on the parking lot at the Restaurant Equipment Company.
fire spinning at firehouse
Maurice and his friends performed at Firehouse last Friday. It was fun! Vee is crouching on the front left corner of the stage as a safety hand.
I wish I had a good digital camera!
