A Day in Review

Things I did:

-Cook nasty food

-Went to the Zoo

-Arts & Crafts with the girls

-Fell asleep at 8:30pm

Things I learned:

-Anacondas can sleep underwater

-Moving water does not freeze no matter how cold it is

-American DVDs do not work in Swiss DVD players

-Arts & Crafts + Children = WTF was i thinking

-When you find a 7 yr old surrounded by a pile of laundry, its best not to ask questions

Conversations with myself:

1) "Whoa how did he get in here?"

" IDK, wow, did you even hear him come in?"

"No, i didnt even hear the keypad"

"He's like a ninja"

3hrs later

"Whoa she got in here with no noise either"

"Maybe they are both ninjas"

"Maybe Switzerland has a secret ninja training program"

"Sweet"

2) At the zoo

"Why is the one buck seperated from all the other females"

"It's cuz he's such a stud haha they couldn't keep the ladies off him"

"haha Seriously, but really hes totally gay."

"Yea! and he got so tired of all the ladies being all over him that he went up to management and was like "I demand my own pen or i am like sooo outa here" haha"

3)When faced with the Swiss equivelent of a Ding Dong after not having eaten

"Well, I'll just eat it for sustenance, you know, to keep me going"

"You have plenty enough to keep you going."

"Well, yea but that doesn't stop me from wanting to know what it tastes like."

Thoughts of the day:

-I was never good at arts and crafts as a kid, what makes me think id do any better now?

-Hot Cheetos were sent from the gods

-There is only one God and I ask him to not smite me for me last statement

Silly Vegans...

Okay so I actually have to give Vegans MAD MAD MAD props for how they live. I for one have a hard time just attempting to be vegetarian for.more than an hour let alone even thinking about being vegan!!

Which brings me to my next point...does one need meat when training for a marathon? I am having to research it and will post my findings but I am thinking possibly yes? Well I know it is recommended.

This is confusing. Anyways I posted a funny picture below that always makes me bust out laughing. My friends always make fun of vegetarians and when you mention Vegans they basically have the same reaction. XD

Spiders are Evil

Scene:The front entry way of my house. Late evening, with a slight breeze in the air. A lone figure trudges up the walkway, purse in hand, after a closing shift at work. Little does our heroine know there is foulplay afoot.
ACTION!
Walking up to the door after getting home from work I happened to notice a thin line floating prettily in the air, reflecting the blue lights on our porch. My body instantly springs into a defensive ninja pose as the horror of what that strand is dawns on me. SPIDER WEB!
*le gasp*
My arms flail wildly as I look around panicked, searching for a sign of it's creator. Stealthily I peer upwards, my eyes filling with terror at the sight of the massive web mere inches from my head. I knew it could only have been the work of either one very large arachnid specimen or a whole army of tiny ones (we all know the larger ones are rogues). Either way I saw the situation for what it truly was.
A trap.
My archnemesis, the arachnid, knew I would be coming home late and would be tired. The trap was set, but the prey was not as easily caught! I am hispanic and russian(on my father's side) mixed with german and pacific islander (good ole mum), a long line of people who know how to limbo...
Side note: I am well aware that the Limbo originates is Jamaica or somewhere carribean. I digress.
Swiftly, as to not even touch the web, I limboed my way under the foul trap and hastily reached for the door only to find it locked! "What in the blazes?" I think in my head as I try to remember the last time my parents had ever locked the door. All of a sudden it hit me like a scorned woman. THEY WERE IN ON IT!!! I stood momentarily frozen pondering the ever growing web of lies, drowning in a pool of deceit. When all hope seemed lost a lightbulb of "Eureka" illuminated my mind and my next move was clear. Still in limbo position I reached into my purse, fumbling and suddenly...
Hark! What is this? A key?
Quicker than I have ever moved before I unceremoniously shoved the key into the lock and after what seemed an eternity the door opened, releasing me from my predicament and into another as I had alerted the ever faithful, yet annoying Auzzie Pawzzie...a dog as frightening as his name. With a quick "¡Callate!" I sent him back to his sleeping spot and I threw the treats I had brought my family onto the counter, wondering if there were any more traps set for me.
I slowly trudged upstairs and upon entering my room I felt my body relax and the anxiety from before slip away.
That my friends is how I effectively avoided certain death. Goodnight.

Back at it.

After a brief hiatus and some slight added poundage I have decided to dive back into being a vegetarian. I have successfully experimented and *surprise* non veggie food makes me feel like a heifer.

Seriously I am so groggy and weighed down and just all around *blegh* that I don't even know what to do with myself! My depression is kicking back in which means my body is producing waaaaay too much serotonin (or is it dopamine?) to function properly.

So here we go again, and this time I am at it with a renewed dedication!

What goes in must come out.

So what I am going to stress today is the vital importance of remembering that what you put into your body must eventually come out whether it be througb bodily waste, energy, or other such means.

I was discussing eating habits with my boyfriend when I had an epiphany of sorts. When one goes veggie (aka vegetarian) it is important to remember that the food consumed should be just that...veggies. Trust me when I say I have seen some heavy vegetarians. They don't eat meat but they feek free to eat all sorts of others fattening and junky foods.

Sabotage has beemy failing with going veggie. I indulge in sweets and *le gasp* heavy cheeses and other calorie loaded foods, without consuming too many really healthy food type items. I have realized that whatevet I put into my body has to be processed somehow and it is vital to consume foods that will help to heal mu body and to make it stronger, not weigh it down.

So today begins my renewed initiative to become a vegetarian. I will eat right and try my absolute best to stay away from foods that are not as natural as they should be. Wish me luck because I know I am going to need it!!!

Coning

This is the worst prank ever created. If you don't know what it is look it up.

If you have participated in it let me congratulate you on your successfully being a turdbucket.

Seriously who in the f PAYS to treat another person like shit? That's a new class of assholery and I applaud you for it...and not in the good way.

I work at McDonald's and I am so sick of people treating me horribly for it. I am a biology major damn it. I am working to make something of myself, which means I am above and beyond anything you will ever become. See I have this thing called RESPECT for my fellow human beings, meaning I don't purposefully go out of my way to get a cheap thrill at someone elses' expense.

Yes, I know, this has nothing to do with turning veggie, but while I was munching on a veggie sandwich today I overheard some girl flat out complaining about being banned from McD's because of her coning them. She figured she could do whatever she wants since she bought the cone. She didn't think they could do what they wanted and kick her out. Took all I had not to go and beat some sense into her.

Moral of this story is...don't be an asshole.

Best. School. Ever.

Today started my adventures at the Spring 2012 edition of school. How this relates to vegetarianism will become apparent shortly, but for now just sit back and enjoy the story.

I got hungry.

Went to look at what the campus had to offer since I normally attend the one closest to hime, so I figured I would have the same fattening choices available...all with some meat substance. WRONG!!!! The food available was, in a word, fancy. There was sushi....legitimate sushi with wasabi and ginger. They even had *le gasp* vegetarian sushi. I am not sure how that works because the fiends in front of me took the last few veggie ones!! Not going to lie though I grabbed some California Rolls and bought a veggie sandwich and had a delicious lunch.

I am pleased that I have these options for school munching since I can't just leave campus and go home. I live an hour away from campus (friggin nevada) and am so unwilling to drive back and forth unnecessarily.

Anyways I also tried Chobani yogurt today for breakfast. It was honey flavored....not sure if I am a fan of it. The stuff tasted funky. At first I thought I had accidently bought expiref.yogurt, but no it just tasted gross on its own. Hopefully it was just that flavor though since I seriously bought a crap load to eat in the morning for breakfast. Decided I need to actually eat at least three healthy meals a day instead of a bunch of shit all at once. Me body roll(s) agree with me.
