I’ve took recent notice to the aging of my parents, thus making my appreciation for their time here grow.

More-so my father than my mother. Fathering three children, none of whom pursued his talent of music. We are all musically inclined; give us just about any instrument and we’ll be able to pick out a short tune, but none of us quite love music the way he does.

In efforts to not have his legacy go to waste, I’m attempting to combine both his and my passions together. I have a passion for cinematography, and he music.

I want to make a short documentary or biography of his life as a musician. He’s a locally known artist, a talented guitarist, and a wonderful father; these are the three qualities i wish to embellish in my film. Although he’s never really made it mainstream, I don’t think he wants to. He’s humble in his field and he doesn’t play music in hopes of getting rich quick, he does it because it’s what he loves. He’d probably pay for free all the time if the price of life wasn’t so expensive.

I just want him to be remembered. I want to remember him the way I know him and I think working with him to document his experiences, travels, and performances would be a fun summer project and a life-long memory. 

My new job…

I am now a GUESS employee at GUESS Lakeside. I’m a sales associate and a determined individual. lol.
I must say i have good work ethic, i’m organized, dependable, trustworthy, BUTTTTTTTT i’m also vehicle-less. ): bummer.
I’ll be struggling to make it to work every day, unfortunately. I don’t know how to drive, and I cannot depend on my aging mother to drive back and forth from Gentilly to Lakeside, SO i have to find my own rides. This would be easier had i not recently pressured my boyfriend into returning to work from a recovery from a car accident. I mean, I want him to work and the thought of him being consumed with other than boredom all day eases my worrisome mind, but NOW he’ll be at work opposed to chauffeuring me around like he has been doing. ):
Well school, and work are my commitments and I’ll do everything in my power to make sure both are executed smoothly. Be it begging for a ride, or public transportation (i’m lying and being sarcastic because i do NOT know how to use public transportation) i WILL make it to work ON TIME.

My friends tell me don’t hesitate to ask for a ride or favors, but i do hesitate. i feel like a nuisance. i feel like it’s too much to ask of people to cater to me when i know that they have their own business to carry out through their days. It’s not fair that i’m other people’s responsibilities… hmmm..

Maybe i should look into getting a license and my first car eh? That’s nothing i’m looking forward to, but for now, i’m goin to get a manicure and dwell on the issue and report to work for 5 o’clock!
I’m all too excited about my new job, and I really hope it works out! /:

midterms.

i don’t understand why my biology exam was so hard. i studied day in and day out for hours and hours, to no avail.
the exam had misconstrued the things we learned in class, to the point that the questions loked almost unrecognizable and not like the same subject!
despite my efforts to actually ACE the exam, i didn’t even pass. i made a fifty 56! i couldn’t believe it when i saw the grade on blackboard. i know the test was complicated but GEESH i thought i made like a ‘C’ or at least PASSED…
i feel like the teachers try so hard, to make the test as hard as possible and that only reflect THEIR teaching abilities. it’s one thing to make a test extremely complicated and teach in such a way that the complicated questions are not impossible to comprehend. but it’s terrible that the teacher teaches the course with simplicity and the test is completely the opposite… i just don’t undertand.

bottom line; for my final, i’ll have to do everything i possibly can, from tutoring to study sessions with friends to learnt eh material inside-out because the test WILL be as hard as possible…

My eldest sister, Kelli, is getting married. So she decided to drag my mother and me to a bridal show.

This event was held at the Westin in Canal Place and was super exciting!… For the bridezillas roaming around. These woman are beasts! They attack orderves, dictate the phtographers, are nit-picky about their dresses, and make strict playlists for recption dj’s.

My only thoughts the entire time were

1. did she really just shove that woman for the last chocolate covered strawberry?

2. what time is this crap over?

3. who are the poor men who are signing a contract to be bound to these women by law?

The booths and vendors were scattered all over a huge ballroom, each with their own music playing, so the room sounded like an auditorium filled with children banging on pots and pans! All the ladies were flustered with anger trying to get to the vendors they desired. I had to get a drink, or get the hell out of there. It was just too much chaos!

Being at this event had me thinking a lot about weddings, not actually getting married, but just weddings in general. I came to the conclusion that when people marry each other, it should be for them, not to be the talk of the town about the extravagant wedding with the amazing carriage ride to the cathedral. The dove release when the bride cam through the doors. The cake that stood fifteen feet tall. The exotic flowers from Brazil, with diamond crusted petals. All that stuff shouldn’t matter. I think I want a small intimate wedding, if I ever want a wedding at all.

Marriage should be for the couple, not for the amusement of the guests.

Lil Wayne recently got sentenced to jail time. He was supposed to go behind bars in February, but he time got extended so he could get his infamous gold and diamond decorated teeth taken out. On account of him having these teeth for years, and years, and years (i’m talking back to his HotBoys day)… his actual teeth are rotted and just gross.

He showed off his new teeth and i actually think these veneers are some of the best porcelain teeth i’ve ever seen. Despite the tattoos and piercings, i think these teeth are very becoming of Lil Wayne… Could Lil Wayne be becoming into his grown man stage and just be Wayne?! (i pose this question after he has conceived numerous children)

Being that he’s from New Orleans i like the level of his success, i really appreciate him making references to his native city in almost EVERY song he’s recorded. Keep up the good work Wayne, and see ya when you get out!

i think i’ll get a head start on a new #tt …#FreeWeezy. that’s catchy …

This week has been hectic. I missed one day of biology and now I’m completely clueless as to what i should be learning. Before my absence i was an active learner now I feel like I’m on the Charlie Brown show and my professor is going , ‘whomp wha whomp whomp wha whomp…’
It’s going to be stressful trying to catch up, but I can only imagin how it must feel for people who have missed several days… Better yet, people who come to class everyday but experience this feeling of being rambled to. This is upsetting. The information is accumulative, so the more I miss, he further is lostville I will be. I have to go back, teach myself what needs to be taught, then I have to pay my firsy visit to the Biology tutoring center… yippeee…

My professor looks epecialy nice today, she always dresses nice and is always perky, great way to liven up the class, to prevent the nodding heads.
„nodding heads are the students who know better than to clear their desk and take a nice bio lecture nap, so they fight their sleep. this results in constant head nodding… back and forth, and back and forth… lol

Well biology is now over and I’m going to ask my teacher to explain to me what i missed that ONE freaking day and find more information on the tutoring center… This should be fun /:

just testing out my widget. this should make tumblng a little more convenient for me. (;
