Good Ol' BBQ


After the movie, we went kite flying! It was such a beautiful day and the park was practically calling our names! The kite pictured to the right isn't my kite, but it sure is pretty to look at. We also played on the little playground thing that was there. I took loads of pictures and i can't wait to put them up. I have a battle wound! When i went down the slide, my elbows got burned! I feel it hurting now. I remembered when i was little, i played hard-core during P.E. I think this was in 2nd grade (my last year in public school) and we were playing kickball. I was running towards home base and slid (i know, me...sliding! I don't think you'd see me do that again, ever.) to make it in. It was a stupid decision because i didn't see the patch of stickers surrounding home base. I slid right through that thing and tore up my leg. I didn't even know it was bleeding until i looked down and saw it was scratched up and ugly. I was wearing my favorite outfit (matching shirt and pants that my mom made for me) and realized that the pants had a humongous gash from the knee down to my ankle with blood all over it. I ended up limping back inside and was rehearsing the lines, "can i go to the nurse," over and over in my head (because i didn't know english that well). Apparently when the teacher saw, he looked at my stupidly and said, "next time don't ask, just go." When i arrived at the nurse, she looked at it and decided it was best to sanitize it. What's that mean? Alcohol!!!!! I remember the pain now. As she pressed the cotton ball to my leg, i was shivering in pain. I was totally crying my eyes out because it hurt so bad. When my mom saw, she was like, "are you crazy! you're a girl, act like one!" I've been girly ever since. I don't know how i've become so girly, it might be the fact that my mom imposed the color pink on me throughout my childhood, but that's a different story.
While i'm driving i like to watch people in cars. Well, besides thinking about death and underwear, i try to guess if there is an old/young guy/girl in certain cars. I don't know if i'm right and i don't play that game often because i get too distracted easily. I tend to forget where i am going. Oh, my simple little head is annoying sometimes. There was this girl, a pretty pretty girl with sunglasses on driving a sleek black car with her windows down. Note: i'm not checking her out and i'm not a lesbo. She was just pretty, but then she started to blow smoke out the window and she turned into the ugliest person-in-a-car i've ever seen. I kept imaging that commercial with the cute little teens on t.v at a party. The guy was approaching this "hot" girl, but she started t smoke. The minute she did, her head turned into a stupid looking fish and the guy laughed and walked away. It's weird because i have a lot of commercial moments that make me chuckle to myself as though i am insane. When i came home, i cleaned the house. I rarely get into those modes, but when i do, it's for real. I'm glad it's clean. Unfortuantely, the parents didn't notice until i pointed it out! That does not matter because i'm proud of the cleanliness. Now, i just need to shower and i'll feel lots better.
My little sister is looking through colleges right now because she's almost a grown up. My, my, how time flies. I remember when she was a chubby, little kid. Now, she's a big skinny kid that is oddly proportioned (jk - i love her lots!). She's into digital stuff; i think youtube inspired a passion. I want to pursue graduate studies in broadcast journalism. Since i can't go out of state for my masters, little sister and i are going to go to the same school (her for her undergrad, me for my post-grad studies). My parents were amazed at the price of public school universities. SU is so costly because it is private. I have to admit, the education at SU is one of a kind. It's strong and fierce; it's not for the faint of heart. Little sister is looking at A&M-Commerce. My initial reaction was - gross! - but, i quickly recovered after a few days of convincing. You aren't going to get a lot of schools that are offering the majors that we want. We are thus, compromising and settling. It's a give and take sort of deal.

Today was a fun filled day. There was lots of spending time with the bf and the kids. The bf is a master bbq-er, kite flyer, and photographer. I love looking at the pictures he takes. One thing i noticed today is that i am majorly out of shape! I tried climbing the monkey bars and i feel every time. At least i made it to the middle? It was so hard. My arms were trembling and my grip was loose after the second try! I can still feel the pain as i type up this entry! What's cute is Ollie having a prospective bf. It's a cutie poodle/cocker spaniel. Ollie is such a flirt.
Do you remember Lakshmi Tatma? She was plastered all over the news. She was the girl born with four arms and four legs. It was awhile back, like late last year. This was possible because she had an undeveloped, twin that was conjoined at the pelvis. I wrote about this while i was at News 8 Austin. Now in India, a new "miracle" child is born.

Cute picture of the day.
