I just updated my about me page. I didn’t realize how outdated it was. I even changed the pic. Everything in the first paragraph was wrong! It’s amazing how much can change over the course of a year…
I need to blog on this site more. I blog on my other site all the time. I guess that’s because my other site is a personal site and I have a lot of things to talk about. I’m up early. I only got three hours of sleep in. There’s a lot on my mind right now. Mostly relationship issues. I have class today and I don’t want to go. I’ve missed at least an entire month in my English class. I think I’ve missed about 6 sessions in Spanish. My professor is getting on me now. He wrote on my exam that I had a 93% participation grade but really that isn’t true because I have 4 absences. I was like really? And I missed 2 days the following week, so I’m guessing I’m at 6. I really don’t like school. I’m paying for it myself and I’m still not motivated to get up and go to class.
I need to talk to someone. I don’t think I have one person in my life that wont be biased. If I talk to this person I know what they’ll say. If I talk to that person I know what they’ll say. I don’t know if I’m looking for advice or if I just need someone to listen. I think it’s the latter. It sucks because I could go to the shrink but I have to schedule nearly a month in advance. What type of mess is that?
I’m sitting up here eating tuna salad & crackers. I know it’s 7:30am. I just feel weird. I didn’t want cereal. I feel like I’m starving. I only ate one meal last night so it’s probably due to that. I’m drinking Vanilla Coca-Cola Zero. This is the exact same meal that I ate last night. Coke Zero isn’t that bad. I bought it last week and I thought it was N-A-S-T-Y. I’ve never been a fan of diet pops. I can’t stand aspartame. When I went home my mom bought Diet Coke and regular Coke. Everyone else in my family is OK with drinking diet pops. That started after I left home because I don’t go for that ish. Anyway, the regular Coke was not good. At all. It had a weird after taste and everything. My little sister let me drink some of her diet pop and it was better! I think that has something to do with me all of a sudden liking Vanilla Coke Zero. I hope I can keep this up. I bought 2 boxes of it. I’m trying to drink diet pop not so much for my weight but for my teeth. My dentist was mean to me and basically said I can’t have sugar anymore. I’m trying to follow the rules. I went to a nutritionist and they told me so many times to stop drinking regular pop and I never listened. After one visit to the dentist I’m drinking diet pop. I value my teeth!
This blog turned random really fast. Christmas is in less than a month! The last day of school is in 2 weeks!
Speaking of school…I’m thinking about taking off another semester. I probably wont but I know I want to.

I really enjoyed The Santa Clause. My family and I went to see it when it first came out years ago. It was so much fun. I loved it! When the Santa Clause 2 came out we rented in on DVD. I don’t think I actually sat down and looked at it. My father said it wasn’t as good as the original. If you rewind back to last year then you will remember that The Santa Clause 3 - The Escape Clause was released. Everyone would come into the store and ask for it on DVD. I told them that they shouldn’t expect it until Thanksgiving 2007. They thought I was some insane video store girl that didn’t know anything. Well I am pleased to tell you that a commercial just came on that stated “Own The Santa Clause 3 for the first time on DVD tomorrow, Nov. 20″. YES! I’m so happy that I was right. I’ve worked at a video store for a long time. I’m good at determining DVD release dates. It’s just something that you can pick up after a while.
I was awarded the opportunity to try out Biotene’s sensitive toothpaste and I must say I’m in love with it. I have really sensitive teeth and it seems like I bleed whenever I brush my teeth. It really is an uncomfortable experience. Last month I got some bad news from the dentist. All of my big teeth have cavities. For me that’s a big deal. The last time I went to the dentist was in 2005 and I didn’t have a single cavity and this time I have several. I was shocked. I went to the doctor because my teeth randomly fell out while eating a cracker from a lunch able. It shattered and little pieces came out. At first I didn’t know what it was until I felt the hole in my teeth. My teeth were my prize possession. My teeth are straight, I didn’t have cavities and they were just in good condition. I can no longer say that and it makes me sad. This is the perfect time for me to have come across Biotene. If I discovered Biotene earlier then maybe I could have avoided all of the drama that I’m going through with my teeth at the moment. Unlike other toothpastes Biotene doesn’t just mask the problem it resolves it!
I just finished watching the Dancing With The Stars semi-finals. It was great entertainment. I absolute adore Melanie. She’s so cute. She’s a great dancer. I hope she wins the title. She deserves it. She got a 30/30 on both of her dances so her final score was a 60/60. She is tied with Helio with a 60/60. Maria has the lowest score. 56/60. I just want to see Mel B in the finals. I’m usually not home on Monday nights so I just look for the performances on Youtube later on in the day. I always watch Mel B and Sabrina (before she got booted). I haven’t got into DWTS like I’m into American Idol. I’m not sure why that’s the case but it is.
Freeze It Gel Posted on November 19th, 2007 @ 7:24 pm
My mother used to be a really fast runner until and unfortunate event happened. One day she was running and she slipped on something sticky on the concrete. She broke her knee. This is the worst part of your leg to break since it is the joint that connects your leg to your thigh. Every since then my mom hasn’t been the same. They operated on her leg and realized they cut the piece too short once they were in her leg so and they didn’t do anything about it to fix it. Now she wobbles when she walks. Her leg is hurting often. And she can no longer run. My mother is a very strong woman. She always helped with the moving process and someone you could depend on whenever you needed to get physical work done. Now that her leg is messed up she can no longer do these things. It’s makes me very sad when I have to walk with my mother. I have to slow down because she can’t walk as fast as she used to. She gets tired very fast and she has to rest often.
I introduced Freeze It to her a few months ago and she absolutely loves the product. Her doctor prescribes her medication to take when her leg hurts but that causes sleepiness. With Freeze It she applies the gel outside of where the pain is and it freezes the pain. It no longer hurts and it works instantly. You don’t have to wait like you do when you are taking medication. It’s an easy solution and something you should carry around with you if you have muscle/joint pain.
You can use Freeze It to alleviate the pain of sore muscles, muscle sprains, back, shoulder, neck pain, arthritis, painful ankle, knee, hip & elbow joints, as well as arthritis.
I know my mother would be excited to win a supply of Freeze It Gel because she’ll be able to go to work without pain and spend time with her children without thinking about how much her leg is hurting her. My moms knee will never be the same but at least with Freeze It she doesn’t feel like the rest of her life is ruined just because she isn’t as physically able as she used to be.
I’m really excited about how great Leona is doing in the UK. I was introduced to Leona last year by my best friend. She watched the UK’s X Factor via Youtube and I got into it also. Leona is naturally an amazing singer. There are also so many talent shows these days that anyone can get a record contract. The thing that’s difficult is coming out with a CD worth buying. Leona definitely has that. Her CD is ear friendly. Her voice is magical. Her lyrics are true. She pulls you in and just makes you want to listen to her. Which is why I am happy to hear that ‘X Factor’ winner Leona Lewis has set a new British record for the fasting-selling debut album peaking at Number1 in the UK today [Sunday 18th November 2007]. The singer’s ‘Spirit’ clocked up 375,000 sales last week - beating Arctic Monkeys by 12,000 sales - they set the previous best in 2006 with ‘Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not’. The album is now the fourth-fastest selling record of all time in Britain, behind Oasis’ ‘Be Here Now’, Coldplay’s ‘X&Y’ and Dido’s ‘Life For Rent’.
You go girl! I can’t wait until her album is released in the US. I’m sure it will do great here as well.
New York City Posted on November 13th, 2007 @ 11:30 pm
When I heard about HotelsByCity.net the first city I looked for was New York City. I’ve always wanted to spend time in New York because my love lives close to there and because it seems like a great place to spend a vacation. There is so much to do. I want to watch Rent on Broadway, do some shopping and see as many celerities as possible. Maybe even visit TRL and MTV. With New York HotelsByCity I can find a good hotel to stay in as well as plenty of things to do. They even have a full listing of United States Hotel Guides HotelsByCity has 500 travel guides so I’m going to bookmark that site for future reference.
Today Alicia Keys 3rd studio album came out. If you haven’t already gone out to purchase it then I would suggest that you do that immediately. It’s absolutely amazing. I mean, what else do you expect from Alicia Keys. Today she also premiered her video for the great song “Like You’ll Never See Me Again”. Common is in it. It’s great. They look really cute together. So yeah, buy the album. Superwoman is my favorite track of the moment. If you tune into MTV anytime this week you’ll hear a few tracks during commercials since she’s the artist of the week.
