I got 294 points (almost 300) on my PT test! That's the best I've EVER done!!! =)

Maxed pushups & situps and ran a 16-minute 2mile... the best for me so far.
Though I was aiming for 15:30, hey- there's always next year ;) I was the first girl to finish.

So I was put on the "PT stud" list lol... apparently I get a badge or something.

I am such a geek.

Please join me in taking a second to note that Veterans Day isn't just a day some people get off work or have a day off from school. Our troops serving in Iraq and Afghanistan don't have the day off and those facing a difficult readjustment don't get the day off from the mental and physical wounds of war.

While we will always remember the fallen on this day, we must never forget those that still remain among us.

Today please call up every veteran you know to thank them for their service.

be SO bad???

damn you double decker tacos for your evil-goodness!!!!

I had a wonderful break this past week =) 6 days off was definitely needed before I head into hell week...
7 straight days of 13 hour work-shifts =X

Anyways, the boyfriend & I headed down to Corpus Christi/Padre Island for the weekend and it was lovely.
Though the place wasn't quite how I remembered it -a total ghost-town- we still had fun & enjoyed it.
The absence of a crowd and the cool weather actually made it better-- slowed down the pace.

So of course, some pictures. (More @ Flickr)

Hai red hair underneath & in bangs. Haaaiiiii. (crappy lighting- its pretty red)

October was a great month =) Some highlights:

- Oak Lawn's block party, "Fairytales"

- Halloween night: friend's house and Buddha9 grand opening

Oh! & I voted yesterday ;) as if it matters at this point....

The wintermester is coming up soon ;x I'll be taking both A&P and Health... aka, I'll be dying, lol.
November is going to be a crazy month in general. Between drill, working full-time, wrapping up my classes, and getting ready for the holidays, its going to be a rollercoaster. Oh well, I'm hanging on tight ;)

Today was nice, as well. I actually slept in then hit up North Park Mall -my 2nd home- with BFF. Dooney & Burke was having an event so we thought we'd take advantage of the free astrology profile/card-reading they had =P We found it hilarious that it matched her and I perfectly... almost spooky. (She's my soul sistah, so no surprise.) I found the most amazing dress at Bebe and had the most amazing salmon salad at Kona Grill <3 gotta love that place.

Kona Grill

In other irrelevant news, my new cam (Canon Powershot 1100SD IS) finally came in =) Expect better photos.

In more relevant news, I'm beginning to re-analyze how I live my life in terms of how I reflect love. I believe I've been blessed beyond anything I could deserve, so I hope I can ground myself enough to give that love right back. The best solution to someone bothering you is to only show grace and kindness. Karma seems to truly exist.


A parting thought for you:
"The greatest single cause of atheism in the world today is Christians- who acknowledge Jesus with their lips and walk out the door and deny Him by their lifestyle. That is what an unbelieving world simply finds unbelievable."

this really hit close to home. Its one thing to be sitting at home on your couch, watching certain events unwind on a television screen, and swallowing up whatever talking heads feed you.

Its quite another to be directly involved and to know the real truth of these events.

I guess what really disturbs me lately is how easily people have been swayed.
Maybe charisma is all you need to make it in life.

So i stayed up all night, pretty much for no reason and am now subjecting the world to a hideous outfit consisting of Uggs, leggings, the shortest skirt Hollister should not have been allowed to make, a down jacket and a hoodie. I cannot even discuss. Also, i woke up to remember that i have a bright hot pink extension glued into my skull. Im not happy.

Anway, im in the library, checking out what the hell i did to myself in an insomniac stupor at 5am, and turn to open the door to leave. Some girl like kicks it open like shes the SWAT team. She kicks it and forcefully pushed it open with both arms. How do i know? as the door almost hit me in the FUCKING FACE, she stands there stunned with both arms and her fat leg still extended. She doesnt apologize. Fine. thats expected from an idiot who is running around SWAT kicking in doors for no reason at 830 in the fucking morning. But at least fucking move, bambi. If youre not gonna apologize, dont just stand there wide-eyes like an idiot with both arms and youre leg still extended for like 45 seconds. you look like a goddamn idiot. and are about to get played out as a yell at you. Get the hell out of my way.

Really, who fucking does that?

God i wish that bitch woulda hit me in the face. I wish.
