can i get my parfait laced with zyrtec?

was my question at chickfila today on melanie's extended lunch break. melanie's boss told melanie to take as long as she wants on break today, just as long as she doesnt show back up tipsy. what does that mean for us? lunch at chickfila followed immediately by a beer at nick's. we had a lemony schlitz. lovely use for $1.50 haha.

"i just burped schlitz. at work. i dont think this is very professional." -melanie

but first rewind back to chickfila...they were passing around free mini ice creams and repeatedly skipped our table. but after i cursed the place for denying me ice cream, some manager offered to throw away my tray for me. which was nice.

till i realized my keys were on the tray. so after awkwardly sticking my hand in the trashcan to retrieve my keys, which were fortunately on the top, i dashed to the bathroom to sanitize my entire arm....

which apparently i did in the men's bathroom. oops?

i will never again show hostility towards chickfila.

and fast forward back to nick's. me and melanie have decided to get a copy of their beer list and try all of them before we graduate. stay tuned for what we think are the best!
if you don't know what nick's tavern is, it's a chill bar in downtown clemson with a ton of import, and domestic, beers. cool place.

and now im back home at the apt to cheer on SPAIN!!! la furia roja!!! then swimming, then tennis, then true blood then....eclipse! which actually snuck up on me. i nearly forgot that was tonight. yea....so much for my ten oclock bedtime tonight.

...ugh man does school really start tomorrow again? ah, i will forever be studying. even this weekend i will prolly be studying. if not for school then for the PCAT and GRE.

otay short nap, gotta be energized for all of tonight's apparent festivities (yes i consider playing tennis a festivity these days, PS anyone wanna play soccer at nettles anytime soon?)
actually you know what? a 30 min nap will just make for a very groggy and angry irene, i should just fight through this sleepiness and stay up. yea, that's what i'll do.

ZZZzzzzzzzzzz

news from my couch

it's oh so nice to be watching tennis and soccer in HD on a huge screen...maybe i can smuggle this tv back to clemson...

and now my 11:30 PM addition:

me and dad bond over watching martial arts ish movies...except he fell asleep in the middle of our first one so...yea stellar friday night for me!

speaking of movies...well, actually im gunna talk about tv shows. my apartment will be so full of distractions when i come back! we'll have true blood and dexter up there (well there's a lot more but those are the ones im more excited to watch) horrible timing to have them...i gotta dedicate my life to studying! and like. forreal this time! especially that i'll be knocked out for a few days after surgery in august and i take the PCAT in august! hmm gotta take the GRE at some point too...hopefully i can manage that along with organic 2 + lab and another psych class! no time to take my daily naps haha. im gunna go ahead and set my bedtime for ten on the weekdays! there's no way i can afford to not be in top mental shape, AKA i actually have to pay attention in class...and dear lord i actually have to GO to class! haha. ex nay on working and volunteering as much as i had hoped. aw well. gotta do what ya gotta do. and i gotta get an A in organic. yikes!

sacre bleu...i dont speak french so i really dunno what that means...sacred blue? why do people even say that?

well, deciding whether to go back to tigertown sunday or monday...at the moment leaning towards monday afternoon...i've missed home.

::sigh:: oh charleston...

otay, guess i should hit the sack. early mornin run with julie! (as to avoid a heatstroke) then BEAAACH!! =D at IOP, 31st, around 11 ish, come be a beach bum with me and clarkin and nanner! and then hopefully i can convince my parental units to go to evening mass tmrw night so i can sleep in sunday morning...here's to hoping!

off to start book 2 of my few day hiatus from classes. buona notte!

.besos. ;)

oh, audible caller id

i didnt realize my phone is set on caller ID...meaning it says "call from mom" when mom calls...i want someone with a ridiculous name to call me so i can hear how my phone pronounces it

also, i gotta get ringtones from phonezoo all over again! if you had a specific song in mind for your own personal ringtone (provided you happen to be in my speed dial, if not, sucks to suck!) let me know if there's a certain song you'd like me to use for you by tmrw =]

6.24.2010

solo tu solamente quiero que seas tu...

(listening to juanes...the chorus of collecionista de canciones caught my ear, but i still love nada valgo sin tu amor)

well folks, looks like i get my tonsils out on the 9th of august. supposedly takes 10 recovery days but i'll be driving back to clemson 7 days later...and if i have my way i'll be eating pizza the day after surgery! haha

but prolly not. everyone at the ENT place said it is a painful, painful experience. the nurse compared the pain to childbirth! seriously?!? i don't believe her. cant be that bad. and the doc said, "by the 10th day you realize you'll live." excellent. and the scheduler said she lost a lot of weight after since she couldnt really eat a lot. oh food...im not used to having to be restricted in the food department. even when i had my wisdom teeth out, i ate what i wanted, much to sally's dismay since she could hardly eat the first few days after surgery. hehehe

but mom had hers out and she was up and about 3 days later! i'll be fine. and i get lortab....oooh drugs haha.

the nurse said plan on doing nothing but watching movies and eating jello for 10 days. who wants to come keep me company?!? and yea...no ice cream. i dunno why getting your tonsils out is associated with ice cream cuz apparently you're not supposed to eat it! so no one bring me ice cream or i'll be very mad that i have to stare at it and not eat it. (though prolly by day 4 i'll eat it anyways) if you bring me anything. it's supposed to be boost or jello. or ice water...i know, so hard to find ice water...such a precious commodity. but the ice water helps coagulate the blood so that im not bleeding too much. haha when the doc looked at my tonsils he was like geeze how do you breath at night? that big ey? he says if i snore it prolly wont happen anymore once these suckers are out. hooray! my friends will be happy. teet!

haha the paperwork says "parents of infants or toddlers, please bring a bottle or cup for juice and a favorite comfort item (blanket, teddy bear, etc)." ...i totally want a juice cup...and damnit i wont have senior truffles!!

as for my phone. it breathed its last on the steps of hartscove the other day and i just now got a new one. everyone has droids geeze. they're ridiculous. the guy helpin me said, "im pretty sure i re-routed a space shuttle the first night i had a droid." i was like yea...i dont need a complicated phone. so finally got a new phone! took a while to get my numbers transferred...considering the top of the phone was detached from the bottom...the guy was like i see this a lot i'll get it to work. in the end he gave up and handed it to me. i messed with it a little, and just as i thought it bested me as well, i let it fall to the counter and it gave a feeble buzz. i cupped it in my hands and brought it to the machine that transfers numbers, and there we held our breath as it transferred them. we didnt know if it would last. but it did. and then it wouldnt stop vibrating....yea...all those texts...no idea what they were since i couldnt see anything...but my new phone is now activated! huzzah! and im glad my numbers got transferred. cuz i dont have anyone's number memorized. regardless of how important you may think you are to me, i have no idea what your phone number is...i should prolly memorize a select few. in case a disaster befalls me and i dont have my personal phone on hand but a different one.

well, im exhausted, had a few appointments today. im beat. off to start two new books! =D

well, after i read lea solanga's column. dad reads it and happens to think she writes well so i've decided to give it a read.

ciao ciao

can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?

who's awake and wants to call me...you know you want to....please?

today has been...today has been. i'll leave it at that.

6.22.2010

tip you with a kiss

be jealous. clarkin brought my apartment BELGIAN CHOCOLATES back from europe! and yes i ate them about a min after i got em =] they came in this cute box...
oh wait, you cant read it. here:

i would show you what the chocolates looked like but i devoured them like no ones biznass. and yes that is true blood in the background. katie law lent us seasons 1 and 2 =D havent started it yet though cuz im leavin for chucktown tmrw =/

"i brought back chocolate and cheese, even though that's illegal. i brought back alcohol, even though that's illegal too. it's been a good day" - clarkin (i dont actually remember verbatim what she said...)

oh hey jesus navas

as for my final this is how i feel:



hmmm right, well there was a better picture of me spinning around in my chair with a blurry background and a look of terror on my face...seems it didnt quite make it to the laptop...where could the sucker be?
and holy crap i think ive got freckles!...hm time to get the eyebrows waxed huh? wheres cheapest around here?

6.21.2010

so excited...

for a day full of studying

=/

6.16.2010

que paso??!?!

ok. i'll be over spain's loss in a couple days and a couple scoops of mint chocolate ice cream. no team has ever lost their opening match and gone on to win the title but maybe spain will change history! put torres and navas in earlier in the next game damnit! and iniesta, villa, and silva play smart! be comfortable with possession like you always are but make something happen at the goal! nice pace in the beginning but it needed to pick up a little. switzerland defenders did a good job of not letting much happen through the middle and not giving villa many chances. and even ramos couldnt really do much. and they need to work on their communication, there were some good potential goals foiled by miscommunication. i didnt really like the formation spain was in, it was like 1 red shirt and a swarm of white. what happened the red fury?! sad to say, switzerland deserved to win in this game cuz spain was just not getting it together. they had their one moment to seize and definitely took the opportunity and advantage of spain's scuffle near the goal. and torres couldve had that goal earlier on when he got put in if he had a little help! and had navas been put in earlier he prolly couldve pulled off something brilliant. im waiting to see villa and torres excecute some beautiful goals together. im still hopeful! we gotta win these next two games...

i was seriously in a horrible mood after that game. still kinda am. but am trying to be social and nice nevertheless haha.

especially that somehow sparklers got involved in my grocery list im in a little bit better of a mood...but now a storm's coming in so im gunna watch it from my porch.

melanie: "i figured your silence means youre still grieving spain's loss."

happier quote:
me: " i heard that if you give a duck a rolaid itll explode"
melissa: "we have a lot of ducks in my neighborhood"
me: "like you wanna experiment? what if it's true?!"
melissa: "there'll be one less duck?"

here's to the impulses that i will never act upon...and here's to the ones that i actually do... i was gunna blog bout the dock the other night, but there are a few pics that sum up some of the night on facebook....it was awesome seeing missy last night though! let's not wait another year huh? and let's go get our names in elvish tattooed on us somewhere! =D haha

and biff, taco bell by lantern light was oh so romantic =P

and look at this, hilarious. i will arrange my kids like the one on the right.

superhuman touch

"I'm on fire
Nothing's gonna hold me back
Unless the sky has a pocketful of tricks to try

Oh you pick a colour and I sing it for you
I know you feel the same way
Say say
Say you feel the same way

Your fingertips are like a superhuman touch
Can't get enough of this electric love
Burnin the sun with just a wave of your hand
Sparks flying out in every direction
There's more of this to come
I think it must be heaven
Burnin the sun with just a wave of your hand

I'm on fire golden echoes upon my face
Tell those dreamers
They can dream up nothing like this place

Oh you pick a colour and I sing it for you
I know you feel the same way
Say say, say you feel the same way

Your fingertips are like a superhuman touch
Can't get enough of this electric love
Burnin the sun with just a wave of your hand
Sparks flying out in every direction
There's more of this to come
I think it must be heaven anekatips.com
Burnin the sun with just a wave of your hand

Just one day like this will keep me going on
Tender kisses will keep me going on
Ooooh

Your fingertips are like a superhuman touch
Can't get enough of this electric love
Burnin the sun with just a wave of your hand
Sparks flying out in every direction
There's more of this to come
I think it must be heaven
Burnin the sun with just a wave of your hand

Seems like hell has broken loose
It couldn't be more beautiful
I just want to burn the sun with you
.......
Greatest minds in all of power
I just want to burn the sun with you
With just a wave of your hand"--superhuman touch, Athlete

whooo world cup tmrw!!!!! class or mexico vs south africa??!??! oh the decisions i make

6.09.2010

dont do this at home...do it in college




this is both fun and safe!!! and certainly more entertaining when your roommate has a cricket hop up her pants and she nearly sets her hair on fire with a clove.
and the experience is also more delightful when you have a "wind resistant lighter"...aka pocket FLAME THROWER.
"i find that i can actually drink bud when a smore and clove is involved"...i dont understand how you dont like bud...well let's hope the bars are stocked with smores and cloves then!
and yes i am a chain smoker....NOT. nothing wrong with a celebratory clove every once in a while?....unless you find something to celebrate every day...

and look how cool i am...i learned to write my name in elvish...sorta
and i got so excited when i saw this coming in the distance...but then it just spit rain

and now im debating whether i should keep studying or just go to bed...or look at the 30 buck knock off david villa spain away kit on ebay... or...zzzzz

6.08.2010

wait, WHAT did i buy at Walmart?!?!


...o right the word popcorn folded looks like porn. i saw this in class yesterday and was very much confused till i realized the paper was folded. i was even more confused when i unfolded it and read webcam right above it. but then i looked below it again and read popcorn and was very much relieved. ...does walmart even sell that?...

ESPANA!!!!


"why are there so many good lookin guys on the spain team?" -melissa

watchin spain vs poland.....stadium's screaming TORRES!!!!! TORRESS!!!!! TOOORRREEESSSSS!!!

6.04.2010

woopdeedoo

getting my tonsils out next month. who wants to bring me ice cream?

tonight me and the roomies watched the ugly truth (eric winter shirtless...) and Nine. the cinematics for Nine were excellent...not sure about the plot though. but i loved all the sorts of lighting they used, and the mixture of black and white.





I love the dark handsome guys with their skinny
little ties

then played mario kart and drank some ciao bella wine. chill night. which was fine with me cuz my body feels so run down.

hopefully tennis tmrw with the roomies will energize me =]

"you gotta warn me when you do something stupid!"-Melanie in reference to me. trust me, i dont plan any of it

you and me and daisies


check me out, i rolled some coins today =]...had to dissect a lil bit out of my piggybank...

but i restored him back to full health and moved on to the change in my purses and car. and all my treasures could let me buy....gum! just kidding, it's more than that. my goal is to set aside all change towards the shipping cost to demo two babolat rackets...and i reached my goal!! huzzah! i'll prolly demo them in july. meanwhile i'll just let this little sum grow =]
and look at my dampeners....smiley faces!!!!

right. test tomorrow. study study study!

melanie KNOWS FAMOUS PEOPLE

a band called days difference =] and theyve been to her house. and their older sister used to play barbies with melanie. i like their song called speakers. but i think i like wake up your heart better.

"And the words comin' out of the speakers
Are the only way I've got left to reach ya
My soul plays the keys, and my heart plays the drums
I need you to hear me so turn the radio on"

oh hey [tom felton]
