The return of the GOHP

This is the start of a bad week. I can already imagine it. Why? For all those thinking i already reveal too much, i'm going to do it again. The GOHP is back! I'm on my period and i feel extra cranky. I ran out of tampons and haven't had time to run to the store to buy some. As a result, a catastrophe happened! I'm too over dramatic right now, but bare with me. This is fair warning of what i'm going to talk about, so if it's too much detail...[skip the next full paragraph].

Ahh, what a great way to say "good morning." Nothing is better than waking up to some leakage. Albeit, the mess was small, but it messy nonetheless. Leaks - the bane of my existence. I went to the restroom, cleaned up and readied myself for the new day. I didn't mess up my bed because i slept on top of a towel. Instead of covering my bed with newspaper, as the bf suggested, as just folded a towel. It works great and can easily be washed. Despite all that, i was optimistic! I changed into a pair of dark jeans (smart choice!), my cute pink shirt, and a cardigan. My hair was up and random strands were pinned back away from my face. I was clean and ready. Everything was pleasant until my second class. That particular class is 2 hrs long. So in total, i was sitting in a chair for 3 hrs (including my 9 a.m class). That's not so bad because when it's that time of the month, all i want to do is sit on my bum. After the 2 hrs, i felt something happen. Gross. Leakage came back to play. I rushed home because i could feel the mess. When i reached my room, i cleaned up and then started to wash my undies and jeans. They're drying, as of right now. After that unfortunate event, i changed into a pair of sweat pants and a dark shirt to fit my dreary mood. Unfortunately, my sweat pants are really cute and my dark shirt sports the ever-so-cool Chuck-E-Cheese mouse. I put my hair down in a poor attempt to feel "dark," but that was dismissed by the pink hello kitty hairpin that's keeping up my bangs. Don't be thrown off by my usual "cute" demeanor. I think i would feel better about myself if i could properly shower. I love showers. When you're a GOHP, regular showers are a necessity. I guess the other thing that aggravates me is that i can't workout. I'm getting into the whole workout thing and i'm pretty serious about getting toned/losing weight. It's just a lot harder to achieve consistency when your period is in the way. Moreover, what's weird this time is that, i'm getting minor cramps. I don't get cramps that often, but this time i do. It really sucks. I'm already lethargic enough, i don't need other stuff slowing me down.

I just need to work through this week. I have two papers due wednesday. Why is everything due monday or wednesday, my two most busiest days? Well, that's because i only have classes on those two days plus friday. Remind me never to construct such a stupid schedule. It's a pain in the butt to go to 5 classes on 3 days. What's worse is that they're all back-to-back. What idiot does that? On a brighter note, i found out all my finals are papers. I need to start cracking. Too bad i don't have the prompt. I'm pretty sure i'm not going to ace this semester as i did last semester, but all i know is that i'll try my hardest. I love studying in my room, but there are so many distractions! When i'm sitting at my desk, i smell roses and dark chocolate. That a wonderful combination! The bf gave me a vase of roses and it's sitting next to my monitor and right beside my mouse, i have a bag of choco covered raisins. Those are delish. Speaking of monitor, i really want a laptop now. I've decided that i'm going to study in NY for my spring semester next year. I want a laptop with me so that i don't have to depend on other people. Most importantly, i want to stay connected and blog about my daily events. I don't know if i can convince my parents to help me out on this one because they are already buying me a car. In class, i was daydreaming about me driving around in my little hip, green, mini-cooper named darla. Actually, the name is still yet to be determined, but i thought darla was such a cute name. It reminds me of the little cute girl from "the little rascals!" Vroom. Hopefully, i get the car. I already know my dad is against it, so we'll just have to see what i end up driving this summer.

I was walking to class and heard this girl talking about tattoos. She had one on the back of her neck. It was small, blue, and detailed. The guy pointed at the tattoo and said, "wow, it looks so cute. i'm glad you got a small one because that attracts more attention than the big ones." That was just a sorry excuse to touch her neck. When she answer, i had to gag. Her voice was the high pitched, sugar coated voice that you only hear when girls whine. Her laugh was annoying too. It kind of reminded me a helium-induced, hyena's heckle. I think i'm extra sensitive/mean right now because i'm a GOHP. I know that shouldn't excuse my criticism, but it will have to do. I don't like tattoos. I think it was scared out of my system by my dad when i was young. I used to write stuff on my hands, like homework and thinks i needed to remember. When i came home after school and my dad saw the mess on my hands, he yelled at me. "Do you want a tattoo now? Like one of those gangsters? If you want to be like them, forget about school and start picking up trash in the streets because that's what you're going to become." Intense, right? Who knew you'd fail at life if you get a tattoo. That sort of mentality was ingrained in me, so now i don't like tattoos at all. What do you have to prove when you sport a tat? Is it that you're a "rebel"? Is it that "it's my body, i do what i want" mentality? I watched a show on tv called, LA Ink. When i watched that i had a new appreciation for tats. I guess as long as it's a valid reason, tats are alright. They just have to mean something, have some sort of personal value. Why get a stupid chinese sign like "fire" just because it's your "element." Wait till that feng shui stuff bites you in the butt. Then you'll have to dish out the money to get it removed. Why don't you get something temporary like henna?

At the end of the day, i can honestly say i feel a whole lot better. I need to surround myself with positives. No negativito. So, lets look at cute little websites that i'm throughly intrigued by. First up is the mega cutesy, LittleOddThings with products inspired by the forest. Holy junk, their clutches are so cute! The only problem is that they are really overpriced. I'm not sure if i'd ever pay for anything on that site, but it sure is tempting. I really like the forest inspiration and the color. It's so fun just to look at the products. Next up is a really neat site if you're on the lookout for fresh looking desktops. They are unusual and very refreshing. i was just browsing through their collection of desktops and it makes me want to change mine. Except i like the one i have right now, so i'm probably not going to change anything. It's just something for you to look at if you are bored or need inspiration. It's very simple and clean. I think that site basically goes around looking for unusual desktops. How's that for a dose of website browsing? To stick with the cute theme, here's a video i made. Once again, it's acapella because i can't find the instrumental to the song. In case you are wondering, it's A Fine Frenzy's - Think of You

I can't believe one year has gone by so fast.


Cute picture of the day.

Aren't these cute! They are little emoti-buds. You stick them onto your earphones to show what kind of mood you are in. Aww shucks. I like the pink ones!
