... this post should be JUST those faces.
i absolutely HATE getting sick... and to think that i used to TRY. well, those were the public school days. now when i'm sick, i gotta stay home on the days when i actually have the OPPORTUNITY of leaving my house!

MAN, every minute i spend, sitting on the couch, watching psych.. i could be spending outside, in the FRESH, rejuvenating air... ROLLERBLADING!! eh.. psych's actually pretty good..........  AND, its raining. *definitely dampers the last bits of optimism i had left* hahaha ;)

although i dream to be outside, i attempted to cure my boredom and loneliness by redecorating my room. i mean, i figured, i'm not disabled.
but, i might've gone a bit overboard.
ITS UNDERSTANDABLE THOUGH... there was a dire need that was slowly eating way through my entire body. the need to do SOMETHING... and i happened to unleash this concentrated force on my room. the one thing i have control over :P
... and that force came shooting out of me!

check it out...

 I stuck tons of stars on my ceiling... and lined the room with christmas lights :P

Then i whipped out some tissue paper, and started creating flowers.. BIG flowers

and a bouquet of SMALL flowers...

and here. is my abstract wall... plastered down tissue paper... and a splash of french will do. ^_^

"i would like to buy a 'amburgeur..."

 Well, I've recently discovered my absolute love for hamburgers! THEY ARE SO DELICIOUS...

Picture it in your mind... that juicy, thick piece of meat, in between two soft buns. often including crispy lettuce, tomatoes, ketchup, mayonnaise, ect...
Since i decided to talk about my new found love of hamburgers, i'll share the second thought that entered my mind involving hamburgers, a clip from the pink panther. steve martin is fantastic.

I'm walking on SUNSHINE..

Yesterday... precisely March 9th, 2011, was a GORGEOUS day.
the sun was flooding into our house, and on those kind of days, you simply cannot just sit on a pink, plastic chair, and stare mindlessly at a computer screen (specifically facebook :P).
Anyways, i whisked my mom up from whatever she was doing (honestly, i was being thoughtful. she, as we all do, needed that intake of fresh air!). I grabbed a hold of mincha, and of course she was beaming. (in her own dog-like way).
And, we were off... off on an adventure that will CHANGE THE REST OF OUR LIVES. <----- i'm being a bit dramatic. but, it sounds better that way... and it did in a way if you think about it, i mean the butterfly effect and all those shenanigans.  :)
We didn't travel far... due to gas prices! hahahaha, what a LAME excuse. no, but seriously, gas is SO expensive these days. almost $4 a gallon!!
But, do not sweat, BENICIA IS AMAZING just the way it is (does that remind anybody of a certain song...).
We traveled knee high in vibrant green grass, across the meadows of the famous lake herman, and stood on the rocky banks of the lake itself while the sun prepared to say goodbye.
It was relaxing, and quite lovely to be there next to my favorite person & dog in the whole.... california. hahaha jk.

The only things we walked away with was a FEW ticks on mincha.... and muddy feet :P
