ChinaTown

We had so much fun. I had actually never been! Can you believe it?! Ate Dindin @Yang Chow's. Of course, We over ordered - and again swore it would be the last time we would do that.

• Orange Chicken w/ Broccoli
• Shrimp Fried Rice
• String Beans
• Beef w/ Snow-peas
  

Everyone was walking by our table staring thinking, 'Wow they're gonna be a while.' Yang Chow's is totally one of those places where they rush you - cuz time is money. But the food was excellent. They even remembered my request to go pea-less on the Fried Rice.
After we just walked around and took some fun pics.
The Sweetest Thing: on our way to LA I kept complaining about how my hair wasn't 'Chola' (stiff) enough. So Jesse being the sweetest thing stops at Rite aid so i could put up some travel size toiletries. It made all the difference. I hate when I'm on my way and my hair decided to not cooperate. Added Bonus: It gave us a chance to 'clear our palettes' with some Ice Cream.

We had no room on our table

Pagota's everywhere

Until next Time

Ay Go put some clothes on lil gurl

So on Sat, Jesse and i met up before church to just hang out. And we were taking a lil cruise downtown in Fulla. Our cruise was chill until i started to see all these half-naked high schoolers. Some vaile must have been going on. It was just too painful to watch. So after lil discussion & with some encouragement from Jes-i put the window down and yelled, "Ay, does your Mom know your wearing that!? Go home and put some clothes on!"

Now of course i felt guilty. But i also felt like i was going to be able to sleep better-go figure. As maybe only a couple of you know, on my drive home i see 'Harbor hos' and that is just not okay for young people to be recreating. I don't care if it is broad day light.

Telephone

REaD ME 1st

I did notice this when watching the video. From a seller stand point (because i do work in sales and have for years now) It's brilliant, simply brilliant. From a Consumers stand point, am i upset? Ummm. not really cuz i love Polaroid and think that if they didn't make someone like 'Lady Gaga' there Creative director then would have been taken down sooner then later. And i already know that i hate Miracle Whip.

I am however upset to see the "p*ssy mobile" again. This is not a Quentin Film. And B your not a douche bag, step out side of the vehicle. Whats going on here? I do think that it is a little below (or above) for Beyonce, yes.

Its not that i don't respect art. I do. But know your place as a woman. as a lady.

disclaimer: Quentin is brilliant in his own regard. However, as i grow older i realize the importance of not filling your life and mind with .... are you ready I'm going to say it...filth.

Sweet Sweet Destiny

Today i rear ended someone. While my head was still filled with Maybe's and what if's-I realized i didn't take any pictures of the damage. So i google search his address on my google app and head off. Parked across the street from his house waiting for him to come home, i realize i would make an excellent stalker...

Contentment. It's a decision.

On Saturday i made it to my local church for service. And i missed worship and offering but i caught one song. anyhow, the preaching was really good. The speaker usually nos regaña, but he was hilarious, i was caught off guard. But it felt so good to just laugh. From the intro i knew the message was for me. food envy...

I try to sync my lunch hour with my co-worker Whitney cuz i l0ve her. And we always eat out cuz she doesn't like to pack lunch. So when we are ordering i have found that its best if i order what she orders cuz i often come down with the case of the 'food envy.' Its funny we laugh and then i eat half her food or we'll do the olde switcher-woo. Then he talked about the rumble most women have with their closets on Sunday morning...But the Deeper he got into the message the deeper i looked within myself. Its not to say i am envious of everything and everyone around me-no. But what i have really been struggling with is contentment.

Familiar statements:
o when im 21 i'll be happy. if i could just graduate from college. man, i want a boyfriend. i'll be happy after i have kids. I'll be happy after i get my own place. i just want to get a new job.

I believe its humanistic to want more-to want to succeed. There is no problem with that. The problem is the materialistic gimmick society makes us buy into. I find myself wanting more. I want more tops i want more bags. i want the iwant that apple hasn't even come up with. It's an issue. Take fore instance the fact that i really want a hybrid. i have thought about the possibility of trading in my vehicle. My perfectly good Honda accord V6. But then what? ill be up to my shoulders in Rates and interest and the %%% and the $$$. Its gonna creep up on my shoulders and choke me. Thats not easily brushed off.

There's nothing wrong with wanting nice things wanting that new car. Especially if you need it but what about the contentment. Don't covet and don't act with plastic instead of waiting for that blessing God has for you. Cuz you know God wants you to have that new car, that new phone and he has the sweetest deal laid out for you. You don't even need to sign in blood cuz he already has.

New Moon

For me 'new moon' is not the latest twilight movie.
A couple nights ago had a left behind dream. Yea I was left behind I saw the moon go out with a flinch like an old light bulb. It was so moving for me. I feel like this dream was a gift from God reminding me to be ready. Cuz in my dream when I saw that moon flicker out I couldn't believe it. Its coming. He IS coming.
Maybe your reading this and u think I'm crazy. I would rather be crazy than left behind cuz that feeling is defeat-its a feeling of Lost. Its a feeling of empty dis-pare.
Maybe your reading this and ur my friend, maybe ur wondering why I haven't warned u. Its not that I haven't thought about it. I just scared ill push u away with my 'craziness.' I love you. I'm not crazy there is a God that created us. We are screwing it up here. So he is coming to get those who are ready. Its that simple. O and you should really get baptized.

Journals

In one of the beginning scenes of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (my favorITe movie) Joel (Jim Carey) is confused because he finds paper crumbs of ripped out pages in his journal. Well, in a few year from now i might be experiencing that same feeling. I found some entries from 06' tonight. Woa I'm happy that i got a blast from the past, but i'm even happier that i Woke Up.

I do believe keeping a journal is very special. Looking back at all those "problems" makes me realize that even what i'm going through right now will pass like gas. so let's not make a stink of it **wink.

s.s.

Today i saw this girl that was my ex-bff in high school. It was just for a second but sometimes that's all it takes for the memories. I was just happy to see her i guess. Even though she hurt me in the past, i would think of her occasionally.

When i look back on my life at relationships that could have been-i just feel how God is so in control of everything. I have frittered away a lot of time & energy in my life but, without him looking out i know it would have been way more. Sometimes i would question God, but months later when the fog would clear i would just say, 'oohhhh, that's why.' It's just amazing. Its not just in my life, but also in those around me. One of my aunts wanted to go with this guy and something just didn't feel right and God really did not allow it. And thank the good Lord cuz he's still figuring out his life...

SBPL: Crispy Hair

Stuff Brown People Like is a little series i created on my old blog. I am Mexican-American and have grown up in Santa Ana. I'm not trying to offend anyone with my antics, so plz, save me. Just grin and bare it.Let's start over

Some if not most brown peeps have real course hair. It is for that reason we like our hair crispy. We are not talking one or two stray hairz...we are in the fluff prevention business.We need the extra hairspray. Weather it's that wet chola-barrio look<>one of our famous 'peinados.' We love a good crisp.
i call this crispy curls1

Mary J Blige for AT&T

Vegan-ry

I writing this today with an empty stomach. Today i just can't seem to keep anything down. In August i took part in a 'Daniel Fast' which for us is basically a vegan diet. We sacrifice something we love so much to show God our dedication and discipline (and there are many other reasons). Well, i did the fast for only two weeks and my body has not been the same since then. I have my good days and today is a bad day. I had cereal and fruit this morning and since now my stomach is empty i feel better. I just don't know whats happening to me. I understand i need to take it easy and not eat heavy foods but last week i had my first in-n-out burger and i was fine! Sunday i had Mexican bread and a very large glass of milk and i was fine.
Today i couldn't bare it and i called my boyfriend and we prayed together over the phone-then boom-i purged(if you will). This is just all so frustrating for me.

And to top it off food just isn't the same. All those things i crave so much don't give me the same satisfaction they once did. This fast really did show me that food is nothing and wee were called to live for so much more...

moths are evil

Tonight in my Econ class i saw a moth flutter by to the left then when it came right- landed on this guys binder right next to me. Well, i totally reached over and killed it. Gently of course. i think he was shocked. He was shocked at my incredible gift. i have great timing with those little buggers. im like Rain man.

i hate moths
