Craptastic World Around Us

Oil spill around the gulf. Tragic, yes. I wish I cared more. This is the country I live in and it was a tragedy. But so are all other tragedies. Yet I feel jaded towards natural disasters lately. The commonality of them makes me feel like it's just another day, another headline, another event passing me by. I worry I'm taking it for granted how lucky I am that with everything crumbling in front of us and around us, it has yet to really strike me and the people around me.
Those massive earthquakes, especially the ones close to family in China (sometime last year), didn't hurt anyone I know. and I just become more jaded. I know I'm not untouchable in the face of disaster. It can strike anywhere, but I'm just a little disappointed that I care so little.

So I'm constantly coming across literary works that tell me to stay away from ahi, eat wild, not farm-raised (even though there are upsides and downsides to both types of cultivated fish). Don't microwave plastics, volatility of plastics when in presence of heat --> you eat plastic, and it imitates estrogen in your body, blah blah, leads to weight gain. I wonder if it has had any effect on me as I have microwaved plastic for all the many lunches and foods I have packed everywhere. I'm sure that when I eat out, it contributes more towards my weight gain than microwaving plastics over a long period of time.
I'll just keep doing what I do; stay away from chips, soda, bacon, etc. (those are most of the crappy foods that I don't like.) Craptastic foods I do like: ice cream, cake, chocolates, ribs, wings, canned stuff, muffins (so much hydrogenated fats). ugh, so delicious, and I am so...weak to succumb to it. So my plan to jog at least once a week is ... slow but steady I guess, I wish I had more energy after work, but btw taking a nauseating train ride home and falling asleep half the time, missing my bus stop, freezing my butt off, passing through a fog line, I just feel so... lacking of energy, motivation, and ... yadda yadda, excuses, excuses!

Monday is like Doomsday. I'm scared. I know that what's done is done. The results will come out and that's it. If I pass, great (which would really be a miracle.) I think I failed. I will try again. >_<>
Work has had its ups and downs. More boredom, thirsty for a challenge. I need/want to learn something, or relearn something I forgot in the past. Grateful for what new things I have learned once in a blue moon.

Hrm what else? Oh yeah, the media is very disappointing, ahem fox network for distorting miss sherrod's speech, disappointed in white house termination of Sherrod's job. Total lack of respect for employees, lack of respect for due diligence. What happened to innocent until proven guilty? What about all the guilty believed to be innocent because of lack of sufficient evidence? I feel like I'm always losing faith in everything, like legal systems, media, higher education, and the idea that hard work reaps benefits. Okay I'm done rambling.

Notes to self: eat healthier, more exercise, more study, SLEEP EARLIER,
I want a vacation so badly.

Things Me + Boyfriend Say 07232010

Ok...so this started off as a joke, but the more we discussed it, the more it seemed like a genius idea. here we go. a little something...corny and a little something ... silly...

him: I really like you
me: ok..
him: do you like me too?
me: kind of... maybe... ok yeah... isn't it obvious?
him: yeah

months later:
him: remember when I asked if you like me?
me: nope don't remember (I lie.)
him: and you said 'well what do you think?'
me: I don't think so.
him: oh yes you did (fake French laugh).

him: I think about you
me: what about me?
him: how pretty your face is...how nice your body is.

song on radio: I forget which one
him: *singing along*
radio: high notes come along
me: don't do the falsetto part!
him: *aaahh* (falsetto)
me: fine, don't listen to what I say
him: you mean you don't like my perfect falsetto voice?
oy vey, my poor ears =]

Last week I was depressed and wrote something depressing that I couldn't bear to read, so I erased it.

Today I'm pondering the visual aesthetics of a blueberry muffin. So usually mold looks like ... well kind of like a fuzzy bruise, in my opinion. So when your blueberry muffin is trapped with too much moisture and starts to get moldy, it's a little hard to differentiate between the moldy parts and the blueberries. Just something that has bugged me for a long time. It's the only muffin that I like. Other muffins are okay, I guess.

Other thoughts, I shall not take 4 hour naps when I come home from work. In fact, napping that long at all is not a good idea. It's really screwing me up. I should really wear myself out around 9 pm, so I can fall asleep and get up long before the crack of dawn. yay... is me...

This sucktastic summer weather is making me annoyed. I'm sitting here wearing two sweaters and knee-high socks under my pants and I'm still feeling chilly. Can I please have a little heat?

I DO NOT like being cold.

and...so, the more I learn, the less I know. Knowledge is just flying out of my ears. What I wouldn't give to be on a beach right now. oh, and a sunny one too.
