stuff my parents say

MAMI: this is where i'm going to put my shelf from IKEA

JACKIE WALKS IN...

JACKIE: mami i--

MAMI: shhh! i'm "magining" (she's speaking very seriously) :P

while mami is saying this she throws her hands dramatically in the air like as if to say STOP. 

MAMI: close the door jackie

JACKIE: why ?   

MAMI: because your room is messy

JACKIE: but our house is pretty right mami? :D

MAMI: si, pero (yes, but) the neighbor looks at us through that little hole.

JACKIE: really? how do you know? :O

MAMI: well... i don't know. i imagine.

mami & papito were building a bed when they realized they lost one of the bags with screws.

MAMI: [walks over to candy, our chubby doggy]: candy! you're being called to la corte (court).

[mami picks our chubby doggy up and deposits her in front of papito] OKAY CANDY. answer to the judge. where are the screws?

our house was invaded with ants.

MAMI: okay jackie we need to attack. kill them and leave them there to make their compadres disappear!

i walked into our bedroom to see mami standing there with a book of mickey mouse and minnie mouse stickers.

JACKIE: mami what are you doing?

MAMI: your drawers need donny duck!

JACKIE: donald duck?

our mom just decorated our furniture with disney stickers.

Squinty eyes

So I was studying in Oldenborg today when this happened...

WAIITTT. Before you read my comic here's some background because my comic making skills make it look as if I'm seeing this person on TV or something, when it was real life I tell you!

- Mysterious purple person (I'm trying to be race-neutral here. Do you know of any purple people? I didn't either...until now!) is walking in the hall, past Arabic Lounge.

- Mysterious purple person walks COMPLETELY past the Lounge when...purple person returns, called on a squinty mission.

SQUINNTYYY EYES AND A SCRUNCHED UP FACE? It was so random, and quite amusing.

Studying in Oldenborg always delivers! Jinlin came by and tried to "Avada kedavra!" me but he forgot the words and said "ABBA kevsdlfkjsdlfkj". ABBA? I like ABBA.

Audrey came by and showed me her cool new game! And someone else came by and offered me sesame desserts, but my mom told me not to take food from strangers.

And my sponsee and I threw old salmon out of the window. We threw it into some bushes. Woo! We did it to save a walk to the trash can. Woo!

I watched Community. And came across this...http://www.behance.net/gallery/Write-a-Bike/716663

Song of the day: Hoof and the Heel, Hangout

Peace out homedogs,
Roxy

i want. HINT HINT.

the best umbrella i've ever seen. it even beats my old winnie the pooh umbrella and 'its raining cats and dogs' umbrella (it had cats and dogs on it, get it?!)

lullabies, watermelon, and pussies

i tutored emily today in language arts and learned that a catchy titles "reels" the audience in!

are you reeled in yet? for reals?

perhaps if my title was in caps. LULLABY. SADNESS. HAPPINESS. PUSSIES.

or perhaps if the last word was the only one in caps. PUSSIES.

or perhaps if i said CUPCAKES. who doesn't like cupcakes?

on being sung a lullaby...

today is neil's birthday! i doubt he'll ever read this post, because he's only interested in writing and reading his livejournal (which he still has - that was so middle school)...so it's safe to say it here:

i forgot it was his birthday.

good things i have friends who don't! laura called me a bit before midnight, and we spent a while trying to figure out this snazzy new technology called a cellular phone and this snazzy new app called three way calling.

we didn't figure it out.

neil somehow did though, even though he wasn't sure how he did it either. long story short: neil insulted me, but its alright because he was still a 17 year old then. and then laura and neil sung me some lullabies.

they hurt my ears.

on being sad...and on being happy...

i was feeling a bit mature when i decided not to go to disneyland (*tear). my magic 8 ball told me repeatedly that it was 'not a good idea'. only very mature people use magic 8 balls! i was very very happy when i found watermelon at harvey mudd. hip hip hooray!

on hussies...and completing crossword puzzles...


(the condensed version) 


becky: "i like the word hussy!"
roxy: "okay, well that right word changes the word hussies to..."
us: "pussies..."
later: "whoa, the word pussies fits into the crossword puzzle well. but no...it can't be pussies..."
much later (after we finished the crossword puzzle and were feeling very smart for doing so):

while checking our answers..."a dance/social movement in the late 70s and early 80s?" "hippies!"
turns out it was hip hop. maybe we're not smart at all.

random stuff i remember: (WATERMELON YUMMMYYY)

roxy: "oh lao tse...! but then hippies isn't right...and it has to be right..."
leena: "no, i'm pretty sure its lai tse. i remember this, its lai tse"


leena: does it usually rain this much? [reality: it was drizzling. if you can even call it that]
becky: this much?! oh yeah, this torrid rain pouring down...this monsoon...


:D,

roxy
