One of the biggest reasons I love Easter...

Now I know I'm supposed to love easter because that's when Jesus died for us & what not but I'm going to be brutally honest...I really love it because of these...
If you know me you know I love anything Reese's (except for the new crunch bar, you can keep those). One year my best gave me an easter basket full of any & everything she could find that was reeses & edible. I loved it & came in a really cool basket too :)...anyways I know what you're thinking, 'they're just peanut butter cups how could that possibly be more important than Jesus dieing for you?!' Well my friends that's where you're wrong. It is not just a peanut butter cup...it is the best peanut butter cup- the peanut butter egg. The egg shape is what makes all the difference. On a regular peanut butter cup the chocolate edges are thicker and the only part that is really good is the center. On these egg shaped ones the chocolate is even all around AND it has more peanut butter in the middle. It's heaven my friends....heaven. I saw them out for the first time 2 weeks ago, bought them and proceeded to lounge on Margaux's couch and eat them all in about an hour, yes I'm a fatty but it was worth it.

One of my favorite Irish blessings...

May those who love us love us.
And those that don't love us,
May God turn their hearts.
And if He doesn't turn their hearts,
May he turn their ankles,
So we'll know them by their limping.
:o)

Because I'm really Irish u you know...

'There are only two types of people in the world...
those who are Irish and those who wish they were"
:o)
Happy St. Patricks Day!

Horoscope

My Horoscope Today
Your emotions are all over the place when you think about your next big move,
which could be anything from marriage to taking a new job.
It's a good time to get yourself pulled together and unified.

Wow...spot on...

Looks like I'll be all over youtube and hulu tonight...

Looking for last nights game. Of course...of course I would miss an amazing 6 OT game cuz where am I? I'm on planet 'March-Madness-hasn't-started-yet' when apparently it has. Honestly I think it just clicked for me that we are actually in March. I mean you would think changing the calendar and my dad asking if I would be around for the ST. PATRICKS DAY parade & road race would have been a clue but no. I hate being so busy with school & such...it throws me so out of the loop of things. NOW...I have to sit around & listen to everyone at work talk about this amazing game I haven't even caught on sportscenter yet!
..::Good one Frankie::..

Today...

I hung out with Josh.
He was my 2nd boyfriend (and yes I know this pic isn't the best of him, it's old, but he kinda looks like a creeper in all the ones I have on my comp) but we didn't really break up on bad terms so we've stayed friends. We went approx. 2 or 3 years without talking because well according to him I kind of disappeared. I guess I can be a little good at that. But I'm gonna be honest, he couldn't have been looking that hard...my family, unlike me, is pretty stable & easy to find but whatev! No biggie.
He's kind of a rapper. He's the skinny white boy who does a lot of the rapping in the beginning.

He used to write some pretty good stuff and I'm sure he still does. He used to write some pretty good stuff for me and in a round about way I'm pretty sure he still does lol.
Anyways I had fun. We saw Tyler Perry's Madea goes to jail. It was good. Kinda funny. His mom made Tacos. They were yummy. His dad's leftover birthday cake was amazingly good. I'm a fat kid and yes, I also had Coldstone yesterday with Margaux. What about it?! Anyways we didn't really hang out that long because his lame ass was sick. Eh, it happens. Really that's not the point of this post.
The point is-originally we were supposed to go play basketball yesterday but somebody ended up having to work late. Then today when he got in touch to get together he said 'eh courts are probably wet huh? wanna do something else?' So what this comes down to to me is he's scared. Oh yes Josh, that's right, I know right now you aren't aware of this blog yet and you probably won't be for quite a while but, I'm sure someday you will stumble upon it and you will see how I am telling the world that you are terrified that I am going to embarrass and own you on the court like I did the first time we hung out years ago. I'm keeping count now, of how many times you avoid it. You are up to at least 5 at this point considering the few times I snuck out to the Woo to visit, you always avoided playing. So we will see when you finally man up and play. Stop being such a wimp! :) Just sayin.
Oh and P.S.>>When you do lose I don't want any nonsense about your arms hurting because of all the BS pushups you've been doing! Puh-lease!

Found it!

This is Nikki's wonderful bomb on Rock of Love Bus. Please proceed to enjoy as I have. And I'm sorry it's the best I could find & I know the lettering is a bit annoying.

City Year...

I am currently filling out an application for this program called City Year. It's a year of volunteering in a school in an inner city where attendance and grades are low. 



The biggest difficulty I'm having is with deciding what city to apply to. The locations they have are Boston, Chicago, Cleveland, Columbia, Columbus, Detroit, Little Rock,  LA,  Louisiana,  Miami,  New Hampshire, New York, Philadelphia, Rhode Island, San Antonio, San Jose,  Seattle, and DC. I'm not sure if I want to stay close to home or get away. So I've narrowed it down to Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia, and New York. I would have gone for something warmer like Miami and LA. I would LOVE to do one of those but I'm afraid that too many people will apply to those places and I'll have much worse odds there than a colder not so 'vacation' spot. Chicago & Philly would be the farther choices and Boston & New York would be the closer choices. Since I'll only be living on a stipend (which will probably be only $200 a week) I figure it may be smarter to stick close to home. New York is VERY expensive (Duh) so I'm really really leaning towards Boston. It's close enough I won't miss out on anything with the Fam and I think my odds applying there will be pretty good. Thoughts?

FINALLY Slumdog...

After at least a month of telling people I wanted to see it. After a month of hearing I haven't heard of the that movie. After it winning 8 Oscars...finally, Finally, FINALLY...on the 3rd I saw it!
On the 3rd I FINALLY saw Slumdog Millionaire. I LOVED it. I'm not gonna lie...I want to go see it again :) . 100% a new favorite. It is now #2 on my 'love story' movie list. Right below... The Notebook
I'm pretty sure nothing can ever top this one. Simply because it's probably the first love movie I ever really liked. Not to mention all the memories it triggers....yeah we're not gonna mention those :). It also lands right above...
Twilight DUH! Yeah I know I've already blogged so much about this movie and haven't even mentioned The notebook or Slumdog but I feel the relevance of Slumdog makes it a million times better than Twilight but that's just me.

It's creepy...

all the coincidences between Margaux and I...here's the list-->

1. Art class in high school- discussing how we feel about the tattoos we got the year before- telling people how we like them but were a little iffy simultaneously said 'I don't like mine when I'm naked' our whole table agreed we spend way too much time together (just so you know we never even discussed being iffy about them)

2. We both only had our first cars for about 3 months before we totaled them.

3. Within a month after getting her 2nd car Margaux's muffler broke....within a month after getting my 2nd car the pipe to my muffler rotted out. They were both standard civics.

4. I got a flat...three weeks later she got a flat.

5. She slightly rear ended someone...a month later I did the same.

6. One day while backing out of the parking lot when we worked for a radio station, I had been arguing with someone and forgot I parked by the dumpster. When I backed out I backed right into it. A few days later I was on the phone with Margaux while she was complaining about something green on the side of her car. She told me she thought someone scraped against it pulling out and their paint got on her car. I said 'are you sure you didn't back into a dumpster somewhere?' 'no'-- a few days later she admitted she backed into the same dumpster. Silly girl trying to fool me.

7. Finding out we both liked twilight...that's the one i tried to hide.

8. Latest one happened today when we found out that FF lives basically on the same block as her boyfriend. WEIRD! Really, what are the odds?!?!

That's all I can think of right now. There's more I can't remember right now.

Reality- On a bus not in a House

So I have this horrible obsession with reality TV...okay not so much an obsession I just always have the TV on while I'm doing homework, cleaning, facebook stalking, or blogging and well that's usually Sundays when they have a million reruns. I really only catch about 5-10 mins of each episode but that's all you really need with those shows right? and Best Week Ever will catch me up if I miss anything good anyways!
One of the shows I've followed is Rock of Love with Bret Michaels. This season they took it on the road so whatever girl he ends up with will be fully prepared for his life, but let's be honest. Bret is never finding someone to settle down with.
So Episode 1 we meet all the girls and my favorite for the winnings is Brittanya.
I think she's really cute. A lot of girls can't really pull off the sleeve tats they get but I think she does nicely.
Also I love her dimple piercings. I would never get them but they're adorable on her.
Now this one, Constandina, not sure why she's here. She's not Brets type and she's not really an actress or anything along those lines (that I know of) she's just...odd...and I usually like odd but, no, not this one. She can go.
I love this one...Nikki aka DJ Lady Tribe.
I wish he would have kept her around just because I bet she would have been insanely entertaining. First she gives some insane reason for getting her implants. Apparently it was to keep her out of jail or something. Um okay...and then when it's time to take her picture she announces she wants to do a rap for Bret. Aside from the rap being horrible, which aren't things like that always horrible on reality TV?! Anyways she proceeds to read the lyrics off a paper that says Herpes and Gonorrhea instructions.
I know a lot of these things are staged but really I don't think you can fake being as out of it as she was. Also I believe the producers let the ones like this just dig their own grave. They just put it a good order for us! Anyways I'm going to youtube to see if I can find a clip of this because if you haven't seen it you need to, sorry I thought it was hilarious.







Reserved-

My copy of Twilight today with Margaux...I can't wait...wow, I'm so lame lol!
seriously though...I can't wait...baseball scene is my FaVoRiTe, Margaux's too :) -> it's amazing how alike we are without even trying. That's why she's my best!
Anyways I know it wouldn't really go along with the book and all but can he PLEASE have short hair in the next movie...pretty please :( <---that's not a said face-it's a pout with some puppy dog eyes! :) lol Really though, considering he'll be in the movie MUCH more than Edward :( (that is if they go along with the book) it would be nice if u didn't ef him up with the long hair again. Thankyou!


MSN...Duh!


Saw a news headline on MSN last night reading...



"Why we are so obsessed with Octomom"



Seriously MSN?



because it's effin weird that's why! I can't even look at that picture it makes me want to puke!

Now I don't have a problem with the whole Whoops! I had 6 or so kids when I really wanted one a.k.a John & Kate plus 8 (a show I love) but you don't see Kate running out trying to have another 8! That's where I have a problem with it.





But really MSN?! this is what you call news?!

It's Friday and I'm in love...

not really. This is a new segment of my blog. Actually first segment of my blog that's going to consist of my 'loves' of the week


1. This song...not really the video, the song.

No I don't know what they're saying. They have an english version that I'm sure means something along the lines of what they're saying but I don't like it. The words with the music sound like crap.

2. Wal-Mart $5 movies. I bought 11 the other day. We watch way too many movies on Monday and Tuesday nights after school (like 2 or 3 a night). Eeeek...I'm an addict.

Dear Rhianna...

I understand.
I may not agree.
But if anything,
I completely understand.
