*Sigh* my sleeping cycle is completely whacked out. I've adapted to Jose's sleeping schedule, stay up all night, sleep half the day. I'm going to have to get it back to normal before school.

So I was browsing YouTube at different guys that do human beatboxes. Different people kept saying, "Blake Lewis is better" and blah blah. So I finally put in "Blake Lewis" in the search engine and he is pretty good at beatboxing. Then I started to watch his AI performances and wow, he is really good! Keep in mind I haven't watched 1 episode of AI this past season. He's such a cutie and so original! Too bad he didn't win. I don't even know what the girl that did win, sounds like. But I did end up saving one of his performances to My Favorites (Bon Jovi's "You Give Love a Bad Name").

I added a Bargain Bin to my site...only 50¢ a sigtag. Jose is gonna be off the next 4 days! Yay!!

Ever since I was little, this has always been my favorite song by The Monkees. I remember watching the reruns when they were in syndication in the 80's. And while everbody was loving Davy, I was intrigued by Mickey.... I never knew the name of this song, but I always carried the beat with me through all these years and then by searching for the sample on Amazon.com and through the magic of YouTube, I found it!! It sounds so much better than I remember: the beat is catchy, the harmonies, the flute, I love it all!! Here it is: THE MONKEES "WORDS" VIDEO

Earlier I had some issues with some graphics not showing up on my main site, but now they're back...yay! My poor husband has been sleeping all day. He got home at 11 am. His schedule is 7pm-7am, and he did 2 hours of OT. But I wanna wake him up already! It's 10:15 pm and I feel lonely, I have nobody to talk to here at the house! Ok, not much to report tonight......Have a goodnight!

Shoppe Update: I added 2 new siggies, making it a total of 53 siggies!



I got back from taking my last final about an hour ago. It was for Math and I think I did good. In order for me to get an 'A' in the class, a 'C' is the lowest I can get in the final. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed!! So if all goes well, I will have 2 'A's and 1 'B' for Spring semester. It's now break time until June 4th....woohoooooo! !!

I can't wait for these classes to be over already. Today I got a lot of reading done. I took advantage that Jose spent the day sleeping and caught on my reading. It reminded me of a mom that waits for her baby to go to sleep so she can get her stuff done.... While he's awake, he watches tv all loud and plays his XBox and yells at the game and at the players through his mic/headphone set. Ay. After next week, I get almost 2 weeks off and then I start summer semester. I'm not stopping till I transfer out of there. Ok, I'll talk to you all soon!!

Hi everyone! I have been soooo busy getting ready for finals so excuse my lack of blogging lately. The wedding went great, everybody look so nice all dressed up. I had never seen Jose in a tux (when we got married, he wore a suit). I'm putting up a couple of pictures because honestly, I don't like the way I came out in the pictures. These are the only ones that I put up online. The second picture is my FIl, my BIL (the groom), and Jose (the best man). Lake Tahoe was beautiful!! We ate a lot and we went to the casinos on the last night. We got back on Sunday night and immediately I hit the books. But I just wanted to give you all a quick update. Happy Belated Mother's Day to all the mommies!!

I am soooooo tired! It's right now 12:39 am. I've been cleaning all day and I still have to fold laundry and start packing for our trip to Tahoe for my BIL's wedding. Jose is at work right now so he's going to be picking up his grandma on his way home later on in the morning. She's coming with us too. I got my nails done on Wednesday and they look really nice. Brand new set....gel. I haven't had my nails done in a year, so it was interesting at first trying to type....but I got the hang of it now. Earlier, I went and got my pantyhose, strapless bra, earrings, a new curling iron, safety pins and some other stuff. So I'm all set. I like my shoes. I bought them last year to a Police event I didn't up going to. They look like "Mariah Carey Stilletos" like I was telling my husband . Actually, come to think of it, they look just like the shoe in my header....just black, without the flower and with a strap around the ankle. So were gonna be leaving around 1ish in the afternoon and it's gonna be like an 8-hour trip. I will definitely take and post pictures of the wedding when I get back. We get back Sunday evening. I will talk to you all after Sunday!!

Today was about 100 degrees....uuggh. And there was breeze too, but hot ass breeze. It made the whole heat thing worse. I hate the heat, especially when you have to walk to class from the parking lot. It seems that the heat makes the walking a lot more longer and agonizing. I took my Government test last night, I got a 'B'. So my class grade of a 'B' didn't budge at all, thank goodness. I can't believe the semester is almost over!! Spring semester officially ends on May 25th. But then I start my Oceanography class on June 5th. So I'll only have a few days off. And then I will start English 100 on June 25th, and Human Sexuality on July 1st. 9 units total. So I'll have a busy summer. On Wednesday, I have a Math test, and then after were going to start getting ready to head to South Lake Tahoe. So I'm not sure if I'll be online all that much this week. I have to still get a few things from the mall: pantyhose, a black strapless bra, and a nice lipstick (since I mostly use gloss). Ok, I'll talk to you all soon!!

I just had to share this picture..... Gotta love the look on the dog's face......awww!! He looks like he's praying extra hard.....lol

On another note, some people's actions really bug sometimes. I guess because you paid for sigtags, it doesn't entitle you to say "Thank You" when you receive them. Or at least a "Hey, got them"...anything. Nice....

Ok, the pity party is over. Instead of crying about it, I'm going to do something about it. I went online and researched about calorie intake and reduction in order to lose weight. I have a program called "Diet Analysis" that came with my Nutrition textbook. The daily recommeded calorie intake for me is 1996. According to how much I want to lose per day and total, I have to reduce my calories by 750, making it a total of 1246/ day. If I go over that, I work it out. So I just put in the foods I eat per day, and the program will add up how many calories I had for that day. I just can't go over 1246......1246 is my magic number. Losing weight is basically a numbers game. I should lose about 1.5 lbs. per week. I even set up a weighloss countdown on a page I made for it (it's pw-protected because I put my starting weight...). I set up a profile for Jose too so he knows how many calories he should reduce in order to lose weight too. We will be each other's support. I know I won't lose weight in time for the wedding but I'm doing this for the long run. Yay!!

I can't believe it's May already! I didn't even realize that my brother-in-law's wedding is less than 2 weeks away! Yikes!! Now I'm really stressing. I ran on the treadmill today for like half an hour. I figure I start off slow since it's been awhile since I've worked out. Last time I had a regular workout was for my Step Aerobics class last semester. That class kicked my ass!! But I always left feeling that I got a great workout. I'm so tempted to just starve myself to lose the weight....but I wont... I really admire those people that have that strong will not to eat what they want. Because I know that when I'm hungry, I don't care...my strong will goes out the window. That's so bad....and depressing. Before I got married I used to weigh 110 lbs. I won't say what my weight is now....but it's depressing when I think about it. I never, ever had a problem with weight. If anything, I couldn't gain any. When I got married a gained a few pounds that I actually looked healthy. Then when I stopped working about a year and a half ago, I really gained it. Ok, I'm gonna stop typing, I'm getting sad now....
