I'm a Vegetarian
Oct. 14th, 2009 | 04:58 pm
mood:
aggravated
music: Alone-Glee
I've been a vegetarian ever since I've been born.
I have never eaten steak, cheeseburgers, hot dogs, bacon, hamburgers, veal, chicken, or whatever else you want to make sure I haven't eaten.
I ate lamb once in France because of my grandmother and I threw up.
No, I don't feel that it's my right because of evolution to eat meat.
No, I don't mind if you eat meat in front of me.
I'm still a vegetarian because I don't see any reason to eat meat. I like animals, I don't like the smell, and PETA videos scarred me for life.
It's more for you.
Please don't try and change my beliefs, I've known you 5 minutes. I've been a vegetarian for over 20 years.
I will not eat meat because of you. All the more for you.
Please don't provide details about your hunting trip or tell me all about your dad's butcher shop. I don't need a very clear image of a slaughtered deer in my head.
I like being a vegetarian.
Stop trying to change me, please. I'm not trying to change you.

Fetch me a Danish
Aug. 16th, 2009 | 10:43 am
mood:
amused
1. Today, I was with my friends having lunch. I yelled out "WINGARDIUM LEVIOSA!" at the paper on the floor, it didn't move. But a man sitting behind us whispered "It's leviohsa not leviosah" I yelled it again and the paper flew upwards coincidently at the same time the wind came. He clapped. My friends and I are now convinced I am a wizard and he is secretly Dumbledore. MLIA
2. After reading about my MacBook's Speech Recognition software on MLIA, I proceeded to test it out all day. I also created my own recognized keywords and responses. Now, when I say "Fetch me a danish" my computer replies scathingly, "No. Eat a salad, fatty." This way, I feel like my computer's always looking out for my health. MLIA
3. Yesterday I had my college orientation. I set my alarm clock to play "Eye of the Tiger" when I woke up so that I would have a competitive edge over my peers. I think it worked. MLIA
4. Today, my friends and I went to Newport beach for a bonfire. The guys were trying to be macho and start a fire in the pit, but repeatedly failed. I pointed a stick at the pit and yelled "INCENDIO!" just as I did, the fire started. My friends all think i'm a wizard now, and to be honest, so do I. MLIA

Kindness in death
Feb. 25th, 2009 | 07:59 pm
Today when I got to the box office, there was a shock. Someone with season tickets who had made reservations yesterday to see 'Buried Child' died.
Someone in the family called and requested that we give these tickets away.
This probably sounds silly, but if my family member died, I would never remember that 'Oh my gosh, he had tickets to see a show, we need to call and cancel.' Especially if it's the day of or the day after he died.
I remember making his reservation over the phone, he sounded so nice and I made him laugh.
When I told my mom this story, she told me that my Grandpa, when he was living in Michigan had this friend at church. One day, the friend was driving home from mid-week mass and just...died. His car was driven off the side of the road. What did my Grandpa do? Drove the car back to his friend's house.
It's good to know that kindness is still around.

Weary mom with two kids: I'm afraid today is almost too much for mommy.
Toddler: Why?
Weary mom: Because we have to get Sylvia (motions to stroller) home before she falls asleep, and we're pushing our luck.
Toddler: We can do it.
Weary mom, sighing: I admire your spirit.
Toddler: What's "spirit"?
Weary mom: It means your attitude. Your confidence.
Toddler, with renewed energy: We can do it!

Obama's Grandmother
Nov. 3rd, 2008 | 06:50 pm
mood:
sad
Obama's grandmother died this morning, the day before the election. He spoke about her tonight in North Carolina:
"Obviously, this is a little bit of a bittersweet time for me. We have had a remarkable campaign. And, you know, when we started 21 months ago, I didn't know how it would turn out. And no matter what happens tomorrow, I'm going to feel good about how its turned out because all of you have created this incredible campaign. Some of you have heard that my grandmother who helped raise me passed away early this morning. And look, she has gone home. And she died peacefully in her sleep. With my sister at her side. And so there is great joy as well as tears. I'm not going to talk about it too long because its hard, a little, to talk about.
( Full remarks after the cut: )
Rest in Peace, I hope the family gets the support they want/need.

Lugubrious=gloomy

Today in AP English, we had a vocab quiz where we had to write a sentence with the word and demonstrate its meaning.
So, I wrote:
"When I see emo children in the halls looking gloomy like Eeyore, I always want to ask them "are you feeling particularly lugubrious today?" But then I'm afraid that their heads would explode."

I can't believe he's gone
I can't believe you're going
I can't believe this is goodbye
-Rent
I miss you
Miss you so bad
-Avril Lavigne
Another turning point
A fork stuck in the road
...It's something unpredicatable
Buit in the end it's right
I hope you have the time of your life
-Green Day
That pretty much sums up how I'm feeling right now. How emo of me.
