I NEED YOUR HELP!

I have a SUUUPER important decision to make! It involves singing. Now I need everyone to think hard and give me some advice. I have some very important people coming to the Tilted Kilt on Tuesday to hear me sing. I must choose 3 songs that will show my range and pitch. So far I only have JUST A GIRL by No Doubt, but I am really panicking! I don't know what other songs to do! Please think real hard and let me know. THIS IS SUPER DUPER IMPORTANT!!

Much love and nervousness!

-Judge Not-

-Before you judge yourself.-

Those were the words of Bob Marley. They are oh so true. I have found it extremely easy to judge people by their exterior, and/or actions and I am sure you have too. While it is still really difficult to take a step aside and think to yourself what the right thing to do is, (which is NOT to judge those around you) I feel like we really should try to do the right thing and look at ourselves before we go making accusations and assumptions about others. Especially, if we never met them before. We don't know what these people have been through. I know it is hard to keep a positive outlook on things when the world is crashing down and others seem to be so cold and heartless towards you. But you just need to continue to PAY IT FORWARD. Kill the mean people with kindness!! It is honestly contagious and you will find that maybe, HOPEFULLY one day they will see all this sunshine you are trying to bring into their lives, despite all the rain clouds and storms they have there already. Maybe, YOU can change their lives!! Think about it! What goes around comes around, and if you continue to treat others they way you wish to be treated, it will come right back to you! 

It is also very important to take a look at yourself. WE are not PERFECT beings, we make mistakes everyday! Just remember, that others do have it worse off than you when you are down. It is important to keep your head up and smile through the stormy weather, because despite what it looks like today, Sunshine will always head your way the next day!

(UNLESS YOU'RE IN ALASKA IN THE WINTERTIME... LOL JK) 

"Judge not, before you judge yourself
Judge not, If your not ready for judgement
I know that I'm not perfect, and that I don't aim to be
But before you point your fingers, make sure your hands are clean!"

Be happy, Be THANKFUL, Be kindhearted
It will all come back to you in the end somehow, someway!

KEEP YOUR EYES, MINDS, & HEARTS OPEN!


Fall Back! Daylight Saving Time Is OVER!!



As of 6 minutes ago clocks all over California just FELL BACK one hour! Hurray Daylight Saving Time is OVER! Everyone gets rewarded with 1 extra hour of sleep. For those of you who appreciate sleep as much as I do will get a jolly ol feeling of sleeping in one extra hour tomorrow (well technically its already today) morning! An hour ago my computer said 1:53am... and then all of a sudden I looked up and it now says 1:08am! HAHA these computers are too damn smart these days.

Don't get confused! Remember to change all of your house clocks BACK one hour.. you DO NOT want to be EARLY for work tomorrow do you?

Thank goodness cell phones, computers and cable boxes do it for you already. Oh Technology, how I love thee!

Good night happy sleepers! Sweet Dreams!

Why do I gotta cry?!?!

Ever since I was a child I have been super sensitive and in touch with my emotions. I guess you could say that I get it from my Dad. He would always tear up during certain parts of movies, and I would always catch him! 

Well, I guess it all started when I watched Charlotte's Web for the first time EVER! I must have been about 5 or 6... That movie was SO DAMN SAD! I held up all my emotions.. didn't shed one tear and bit my lip so it couldn't happen. My dad saw that the movie was over and sat next to me and said "HOW DID YOU LIKE THE MOVIE SWEETIE?!?" I looked at him and EXPLODED into tears! Like someone killed me from the inside! My dad started to panic and was like WHATS WRONG?!?! WHAT HAPPENED!?! I was hysterical, and my dad felt so bad that he let me watch that movie. But it wasn't his fault, he didn't know that I was gonna cry! It was about a stupid pig and a black widow!

But ever since that moment, and now that I am older I am even MORE sensitive! Almost any movie will make me cry! I just watched the Curious Case of Benjamin Button and tears are rolling down my cheeks! I hate being so damn emotional! What is it that triggers this? Am I a wuss because of it? I can't get through the ending of Big Fish without choking up. Forrest Gump is another one that gets me every time. Then there's Ghost, Beaches, E.T., and Armageddon. Not to mention ANYTHING that has to do with animals! All Dogs Go To Heaven, Fox and the Hound, Lion King, City Slickers (when the cow is drowning), Bambi, ETC.  

Geez I am such a softie and I can't help it! What's wrong with me?!?!

BTW The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is a really good movie, If you haven't already go see it! OR JUST WATCH IT AGAIN!

Being A Girl...

As much as being a girl has its privileges, I sometimes cannot help but to complain about how hard it is to be  a woman. Here is a list of the Pros and Cons of being a female.. feel free to let me know your opinions on this!

-PROS-

  • Girls can most of the time get away with things easier or get things for free (Especially if she is good looking)
  • It can be easier for a girl to find a partner than it is for a male to find one (EX. Girls could go out on the town and most likely find a date. Men go to strip clubs and/or have to pay for escorts to have a good night.)
  • Woman have the ability to Multi-task!!!
  • WOMEN HAVE SEXIER BODIES! Its true the anatomy of a woman is BEAUTIFUL!
  • We can get away with crying.
  • Chicks have higher pain tolerance!
-CONS-
  • Periods
  • Cramps
  • Pregnancy
  • CHILD BIRTH
  • Having to be "Primped" at all times! Upkeep with makeup because we don't want to scare the opposite sex away!
  • Getting paid 20% less than men to do the same job!
  • Mood Swings!
  • Menopause
Those are just some things that I could come up with. I am sitting in bed with the worst possible cramps right now hating the fact that I am a woman this very instant. Although I will feel better tomorrow, It just sucks that women have to go through bullshit for the rest of their lives!




Fallout: New Vegas!!!

I waited SO long for this game! It finally came out on October 19th, 2010. YES, I did go to game stop at 11:30pm to wait for the midnight release!



I got home and was super excited to play. I installed it on my computer and loaded it up. The graphics are so pretty! However, the Lag was horrible. As soon as I got out of the first town and got into the Violent Gameplay, I kept dying! Not because I suck at video games, but because of the lagging! I would be getting shot at and could not see the person shooting at me until he was up close and personal! I was getting really annoyed. Also whenever I shot at something the aim was way off, and it took a second to shoot after I clicked the mouse! I turned it off and was really disappointed. The next day I tried installing it on my boyfriends computer because I thought mine sucked. It is still a tad bit laggy, but not nearly as much. I am enjoying the game now and glad I can play it. I have not beat it yet, but the story line so far is pretty neat. There is something weird about that robot Victor. I keep running into him and he doesn't give me an answer to why he is "Following me".

On the recent trip to Vegas I took, we passed by the town of Primm. I love how the Fallout games take real towns and transform them into post apocalyptic war zones! As I was passing through Primm I saw the Roller Coaster and Buffalo Bills which is Hotel Bison Steve! LOL! Also when driving past, I imagined where they placed the NCR troops across from the town. Crazy stuff man!

The Real Primm "Buffalo Bills"
Fallout Primm "Bison Steve"


A couple new things about this Fallout that wasn't in Fallout 3!
  • Hardcore Mode: Which is to make the game seem more realistic. You can get dehydration without drinking water often, and there is no instantaneous healing. Such as Stimpaks or Sleeping. Ammo has weight, and fast travel is turned off.
  • Multiple Companions: You can have one human and one non human companion at the same time! Right now I have Rex and Boone. They both come with a Companion Wheel. Which means you can control how far or close they follow you, make them passive or aggressive, trade items, and give them stimpaks.
  • New Weapons
  • Weapon Modding: Adding scopes or extended magazines
  • Gambling: Roulette, Blackjack, and a game called Caravan that you will have to learn throughout the game
  • Food and Drink: Only heals for a few seconds.
  • Books & Magazines: Certain books will boost a skill permanently, but magazines will boost a skill for only a limited amount of time.


I am still learning this game and am really enjoying it. You should for sure get your hands on a copy and tell me how you like it!

Just remember it may LAG! :-(
