I'm not Catholic, but I found this video to be very motivating and inspirational. CHECK IT OUT!

I know I should be happy about this.... I mean, I got into group 1 for the Christmas Play!! That's SOOOOO COOL! But when I looked at the names on the list...I almost cried. Everyone is better than me. If I sing like I usually do, people will definitely notice that I can't. I'm so scared of what they'll think of me. If you heard me sing, you would have to really lean in to hear me. I'm no good when it comes to belting and whatnot. I just can't do it. I can't sing. Plain and simple. I'm totally going to embarrass myself when I go in for rehearsal.... God, is it okay to cry about this?

I had no idea that NARS was such a good brand until I paid a visit to the beauty capital of my mall...SEPHORA!! And to think that it was created by a man from the south of France is even more amazing! If you don't like the foundation they have, you'll LOVE their lipsticks and bronzers. And by asking someone at Sephora to help you find the right shade is a HUGE plus! I was able to find one natural looking lipstick (Damage) and two for the days that I feel daring (Shanghai Express & Fire Down Below). hehe. Now the downside of NARS is their inappropriate names for many of their products. For example, there's Sexual Healing, and Screaming Orgasm. Needless to say, the names are definitely not customer friendly. However, the products last for a LONG time, unless you're a crazy "apply twelve times a day" kind of gal. ^_^ Anyway, hope this helps anyone in deciding what brands to use. Nars is definitely a favorite among Hollywood makeup artists, models, and star

Recently, I replied to a comment on a website about illegal immigration. Here is Otto's reply to Ricardo's, along with mine. Please comment Ricardo barra: quisiera saber en donde se reporta a personas ilegales que estan trabajando en estados unidos ----------------------------------------------------------- Otto Perlera: Let me translate for my amigo Ricardo for you gringos. He wants to know where you can turn in illegals. He is laughing at you as am I. This country wants us here. I work for Silver Point Trucking and have worked for logistics companies like Golden State Logistics and Krisda in the Long Beach/Carson/Compton area. I go in and out of the Ports of Los Angeles with no problem. No security hassles. We work hard to get your crap from China off the ships and then truck them to Wal-Mart and other crap stores. You need us. Get it. So call ICE and turn me in!!! Ha. Ha. Nothing will happen. Stick your statistics up your a–.

WRITTEN BY A 15 yr. old SCHOOL KID IN ARIZONA : New Pledge of Allegiance (TOTALLY AWESOME) Since the Pledge of Allegiance and The Lord's Prayer are not allowed in most public schools anymore, because the word 'God' is mentioned.... Now I sit me down in school Where praying is against the rule For this great nation under God Finds mention of Him very odd. If Scripture now the class recites It violates the Bill of Rights And anytime my head I bow Becomes a Federal matter now Our hair can be purple, orange or green, That's no offense; it's a freedom scene The law is specific, the law is precise Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice. For praying in a public hall Might offend someone with no faith at all In silence alone we must meditate God's name is prohibited by the state. We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible To quote the Good Book makes me liable. We can elect a p

I've always wanted to go into professional acting on television...but lately, it seems like I'll never be able to. My parents don't exactly support me and I'm just so inadequate and insecure that I don't have the confidence or "the look" to get me very far. I mean, I've got some flabbiness (which, when I look at myself, isn't so good...), my acne is OK NOW; but my skin has a tendency to get used to the stuff I'm using until it doesn't work anymore and I break out EVERYWHERE (totally nightmare on elm street if you ever saw me), my hair (I just cringe when I think about it) is SO frizzy and untamed that I think I can be mistaken for a new breed of lion (the dark haired miniature version so-to-speak), my unwanted hair that I will NOT go into detail about since it might make quite a few readers send nasty emails of disgust, and finally my experience (which, up to now has been limited to high school plays and church productions..not much of

You stay up for 16 hours. He stays up for days on end. You take a warm shower to help you wake up. He goes days or weeks without running water. You complain of a "headache", and call in sick. He gets shot at as others are hit, and keeps moving forward. You put on your anti war/don't support the troops shirt, and go meet up with your friends. He still fights for your right to wear that shirt. You talk trash about your "buddies" that aren't with you. He knows he may not see some of his buddies again. You walk down the beach, staring at all the pretty girls. He patrols the streets, searching for insurgents and terrorists. .. You complain about how hot it is. He wears his heavy gear, not daring to take off his helmet to wipe his brow. You go out to lunch, and complain because the restaurant got your order wrong. He doesn't get to eat today. Your maid makes your bed and washes your clothes. He wears the same things for weeks, but makes sure his weapons are cl

Wow, this is like one of my top favorite treats to have within my week. That and pinkberry, but that's another post. Ahhh, Jamba Juice, how I love thee let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth of thy original size cup, I love thee to the...?? hahaa. I can't help it! Jamba Juice is MUY BUENO! I've had so many of them on the secret menu too. Like "Thank You Jesus", "Reeses", "Sourpatch", "Fruity P ebbles", "Pink Star", "White Gummi", "Pina Colada", and a few more I can't remember at the moment. ^_^ Hmm, just thinking about it is making me crave for one! I think I'll walk my dog there tomorrow before class starts. Ahh!!! I can't wait!! But what to choose???!!!!

I absolutely ADORE clothes. I don't mind dressing up bohemian or avant garde, but definitely something unique that has to do with my personality and style. I guess you can say I like the London look, but I also love Tokyo, Berlin, and New York Street Fashion. It's totally chic!! LA fashion is hard to define since there's so many cultures and movements that there's no central focus on the street look. However, I have come across many photos that make me want to go shopping!! So here are just a few!!!

PHO!!!! No, really. It's one of my absolute favorites. You can't really go wrong having this mouth watering dish any time of the day no matter how hot it is outside. And there are tons of variations, all worth trying and experimenting with. As for me, I like my bowl of heaven to have a lot of that gooey hot sauce, lime juice and tons of bean sprouts. I especially love eating the NOODLES. C'mon people!! I mean just LOOK at it!! quite tasty I must say. And it's remarkable how much a tiny asian consumer can actually consume with this dish. I wasn't that hungry, yet I ate a HUGE bowl! And the best part, I wasn't even full yet! Thank God for fast metabolism, because I would be a balloon by now just from eating all that pho. ^_^ Right now, I'm learning how to make it. Worst part, I can't cook to save my life. Thankfully, mom never ceases to stop helping you even when you're a poor, starving college student like myself...so no worries. Well, I&

I want to move to Seattle or Maine or New Zealand. I love the cold weather. It makes me feel more beautiful inside and out and it always seems to cheer me up! Rainstorms, Thunderstorms, even a slight drizzle makes my day!!! For some reason, rain makes me eat less, do more stuff, and enjoy life. I can't get enough!! well...that may be asking too much.
