Friends

Yesterday, after a quick shift at work, I was feeling so damn lazy. I felt so slovenly, I didn't even want to stand to get up off the couch, so instead I rolled off and crawled to the next room. I hate that feeling. So I decided to do something about it.
I was feeling hungry, so I ate some healthy, spicy leftovers (Veganomicon's Jamaican Shepherdess Pie), and then asked Michael to go for a walk. It was growing dark, and we were due at my grandmother's within the hour. But I needed to move my body, I was feeling so horrible from all of the sugar and inactivity.
So we walked from our house to my grandmother's. We walked 3.7 miles. And my body rejoiced. It wasn't too hard, I don't feel taxed or sore this morning. It was absolutely the right thing to do for myself and my body. It was a good challenge.

And maybe walking 3.7 hilly miles shouldn't really be a challenge. But the point is that it was, and that I did it. Afterwards, I felt like I accomplished something. Walking around the 3.2 mile flat lake doesn't make me feel accomplished in the same way. But yesterday, I traveled between towns on foot. I liked that.


Another thing I like is playing with mysterygoogle.com.... does anyone have experience with it?

Hey Everybody.

Just wanted to remind you about our spotlight posts... Maybe those will answer some of your question postings :)

SPOTLIGHT overview!

Plus I added all tags you suggested.

Have a good start into the new year. :)

Soooooo my friends and I were at a holiday house the other night and got quite drunk, but managed to create a semi productive cover of Walking With A Ghost, thought I'd share...

( here you go )

did any of you actually get to meet tegan and/or sara or take a picture with them?
i know they stopped doing it because some of the fans got out of hand, just wondering if they changed their minds about it.

I'm doing a project and I need some funny or not so funny Sara Quin quotes

I would really appreciate this :D

Thanks In Advance if I can't come and personally post a thank you! :)

P.S - Can you try and make them have no swear words or rude references cause it's for a project!

Thanks!

( my room )

Hello everyone ♥
My name is Johanna and I am a 19 years-old girl from Munich, Germany.
I love a japanese band called Kanjani8. They've sneaked into every corner of my room. Not in the creepy, over-the-top way though ♥
And this would be my room:


Welcome to my room! ♥

( lots of mint green & white ahead )

Hi all!
I'm so glad I found this community :)

Well anyways, I plan on redecorating my room to look more antique-ey,goth/victorian :)

I would like to stick with blacks off whites and teals/turqouise colors, BUT I cannot paint my walls due to me living in an apartment.

I can put shelving up though :)


So any good ideas or refrences you can show me? And good places to go to get little nick naks? (Besides the local antique store ;p)

I will be going to a local craft/fabric store called hobby lobby as the have amazing fabric there for curtains :)

Any help would be appreciated!

P.S.-if this is too long, lemme know and I'll attempt to make a cut :)

<3<3<3

hello everyone!  i hope you all had fun on the holidays and got a bunch of presents and ate a lot of things like i did hahah
well i just wanted to know if anyone had a good version of the weezer song tegan and sara covered called tired of sex, im pretty sure most of you have heard of it and i just came to realize that i dont have it on my zune and i want it so i i thought i'd ask here...

thanks in advance (:

i am observant. that's what i have to be. i think i should just put myself to sleep now and enjoy it. listen to the rain, sleep, dream, think too much, miss, butterflies. m-m-my, m-m-my, my, my.

"amor, quiero perderme en tus ojos. no se si puede traducir igual en ingles."
"si vida, es igual."
"entonces."


oh and shit, i wanted to remember this thing that is from gustavo:
"polilla q tengas una feliz navidad.. mucha felicidad para ti y mucha tranquilidad en tu familia e aya.. q tu estes feliz s mucho pa mi.. sea como sea.. pero cosas buenas.. y metate esto en la cabezapolilla.. cuando me acerco a ti.. no es para pedirte algo ni nada.. somos amigos y listo.. eso de irte no va conmigo.. cuidate mucho poli.. si contestar algo hazlo a mi cell"

which is basically just:
"polilla (my little moth), i hope you have a merry christmas. i wish you happiness and calmness for your family in the US. if you are happy, i am happy. whatever will be, will be.. but good things! keep that in your head, polilla (moth). when i am close to you, its not to get something from you, we can be just friends and thats that. you dont have to run away from me. take care of yourself poli, if you want to answer me, write my cell."

the WEIRDEST christmas i will ever have, im almost positive.
basic rundown is as follows:
december 24th: we just hung out all day, didnt really do much of anything, saw anna for a bit and walked her to the spa, waited until it got dark/cool and walked to the store myself in teh dark (scary shit, i need to be smarter) and bought cookie making supplies, talking the creepy store boy for a long time and decided i actually like him he is just a little *dur da dur*, made cookies while everyone went crazy in the house as people arrived around 9 PM, lost power until 1:30 AM basically and just did karaoke in the dark?, ate dinner at 130, crashed on couch, woke up at 330 for gift time!, opened gifts and shit with everyone until people started to disperse and sleep around 530, waited for my sister and brother to finish their gifts until 630, waited a half hour to see if my mom would open her gifts, at 7 she decided she was too tired and wanted to do it "tomorrow" aka later. SLEPT!
decemeber 25th: roberto brought me the phone/woke me at 12 noon, juan pablo called and said he was coming over, spent time with him until about 3 ish, anna called me and was like, "wanna go see pedro and theresa in the center?!", drank lots of sangria and played "i have never", last time we will see pedro before he goes back to brasil!!!! :(, went home, conversed with the relatives, anna came back over, we got ready and went out to nisha, discotecaaa and vodka, danced with everyone BUT juan pablo... uhm, thats a whole different entry, anddd came home at 2:11 AM and my mom was pissed? what?, layed on my floor with anna being reaaaally sober, skyped her friends in oregon, debated together about gustavo and how he is SO CUTE and juan pablo and how we just LOVE DIEGO SO MUCH <3, then i texted people in this order 1)gustavo 2)diego 3)fell asleep texting juan pablo... woke up to say hi to more of annas friends on skype around 430
december 26th: woke up to denisse the maid running around my room screaming "what happened in here!?!?", woke up with anna in my small baby bed, lol, cleaned my room, dressed anna bc her mom was like "WE ARE GOING TO PERU NOW!", went downstairs and was shunned by my family bascically, my mom said i cant turn on the AC.... so now im in my room fan on full blast hiding out and stickin it to her i hope but idk if that is working.

up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down. that is how my life goes here in ecuador. that is it.

( here are the pictures. )

My name is Victoria. I am a transfer student, originally from Alabama but I moved to a school in Northeast Georgia. This is the first time I lived on campus, and so the pictures are from the first few days I was there. The room was moved about 3 times since then but I have no pictures. :[ It looks pretty plain but I was sharing a room with someone so I kept a lot of stuff at home. Next semester I will be here again posting new pictures of my own room and (so far) my own bathroom.

( My Dorm Room )

I also have a question/request. I was wanting to do my poloroids and some fun pictures I found online, hung up with clothespins. It's a dumb question but how do I keep the clothes pins from scrunching together if the string curves down? (I hope someone understands what I am saying.) I was also wanting to see people post pictures if they have the photo-clothespin in their room. Thanks in advance! :]

weirdest christmas ever. still havent slept and its 7:12 AM. juan pablo is in his bed wrapped in bandages and cant remember yesterday, recently, or what happened to him (?).. however has called me repeatedly asking me the same questions over and over and being very out of it. apparently he hit his head, or got hit, or something.. idk. its fuckin weird and scary and i cried a lot at first. gustavo called me and was like, "was juan pablo at your house today?!" all freaking out and weird shit and then finally told me the story and i was like, "dont joke with me. its not funny." and then when i found out it was for real i just started balling. it still feels weird and i dont know about it... mmmm, anyway gustavo is being the sweetest friend to me while also being my biggest fear. and i just waited up until now waiting for my f'ing mami to open her presents and she just decided she is too tired and needs to be attentive... "tomorrow" we will.... which is later today really. har har har. what a divster. i only cried in regards to missing my family at the dinner table 1 time, despite numerous attempts. i hate the attention after the first tear rolls because that makes it so so much worse. ( i know those situations are awkard for other people and they only want to comfort you but "awhhhh, VIVA LA KELSEY!" is NOT the way to go.) so for now, i will sleep and wake up idk when... hopefully get permission to go to juan pablo's house and make sure he is okay. all he kept saying on the phone was, "come here my love. i need you." poor little thing. what a nut case for real. xoxo.

merrrrry christmas y feliz navidad. espero que ustedes la pasen bien y que los mando todos mi amor, cariño, y besitos. <3

this bedroom is a mess and so is my head. i am so happy, yet so nervous. so homesick. so far away. so tired. so alone. SO ALONE. i want to be warm and snuggled and loving everything. hug my sister. i love my little sister. i want to be doing dumb things with her while hiding from our family members and mocking the silly mannerisms they all have. today i was going through the gift bags, random gifts, etc that i brought from the US... and i opened a gift bag and a photobooth strip of 4 photos of danielle and i fell out and i just felt so sad/happy. rawr.
juan pablo wanted to stop by earlier but then idk why he couldnt. its alright its a busy day but i would like a hug and stuff.
xo. xo.


***"i love your skin. is so soft. those lips. que ricos." i am in the place i have dreamed about for months. your arms. the darkest room, the smallest couch. i pretend i will kiss you. when i get close enough to feel you breathing, i just pause and smile. you say, "youre a mean girl. dont do that to me." sorry. you are my christmas present. "esta noche es nuestra." yes yes. si. por fa. amor. i say, "sabes que eres mi vida. mi vida aqui. siempre vas a estar mi vida de ecuador." i just grab your curls and refuse to let you leave me. i want this all the time. todo el tiempo.

Sara and I are opening one present before Christmas morning..wonder what it is? Unicorn?
