the HILLS...

are alive... with the sound of music... (la la la la...)

frauline maria might not be LC, but she was definately up in the hills...

"the hills" is going to premiering on wednesday and i can't wait to see if i made it pasted the cutting room floor on this first episode. anyways, look for me in the scene were lc is eating breakfast with heidi and she's having these strawberry pancakes and wearing that jackson pollack looking top (i was talking about months ago) with a denim skirt. i'm wearing my brown velvet blazer (dude, it was december when they were shooting) and a bluish grey hat with "18% grey " embroidered on it. look out for steve too b/c we're having breakfast!

that was an amazing day!

HAPPY ARMED FORCES DAY!!!

here are some pics of this totally random, but totally fun party that i went to this weekend...


us caught in a fire storm... just kidding...

Kelly (she's an actress, she's in a scrubbing bubbles comercial where she's an actual scrubbing bubble! she's totally cool) me and my sleepy smile, Steve, and Danielle

some drunken fun...

(knock knock knock) HELLO?!

so today at work i'm working on this model and i need to spray mount plans on to some foam core. there isn't a place to actually spray. i can't do it outside b/c corporate america is going to bust me, and i can't do it in the office b/c, that would be just wrong (even though people do it at school ALL the time, i have to be respectful of my colleagues/coworkers).

so from what i've heard, if there are some small spray moutning needs you go into the stairway and do it. so i go into the stairway do my thing, reach for the door and to my horror... IT'S LOCKED!!!! so i don't panic b/c that would the be the obvious thing to do. so instead i coolly grab my freshly spray mounted boards, and see if there is another exit. i get down stairs and there is a sign saying "alarm will sound if opened" so i make my way back to the third floor and is if the door is really locked. and it is. so i head to the top floor to see if there was another exit. unfortunately, there isn't b/c there is "no roof access."

so my only option is to knock on the door and hope that someone passes by. so i'm knocking, and there's no ventilation so i'm sweating like... well a boquiren, and then finally this lady that i work with, don't really know her name, opens the door and i basically run out... how embarassing... but it's all good next time i know to bring my keys and a phone...

Y TU MAMA TAMBIEN!!!

feliz dia de las madres...

missionIMPOSSIBLE...

da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da pawtaunnn pawtaunnnn....

(if you didn't get it, it's supposed to be the mission impossible theme)



so this weekend i was haning out with steve and we saw mission impossible 3. for me it was more about seeing keri russell than it was about tom cruise. despite all of the craziness that's been going around him with katie holmes and their baby, he's actually not a bad actor, maybe not my favorite, but not bad. the movie wasn't half bad. but keri was pretty good in it. although her part was short, he was still quite good.

all i got to say about this is "DAMN!!!" good job growing up...

but i think the best part of the movie for me wasn't the movie itself (although the company is really coming close to being the best part), the best part was about half way through the movie an argument arises in the entrance corridor. three people are yelling at each other and from the looks of it was three rather heavy set individuals (just to give you a picture). people start "shuushing" them b/c they're being quite loud. truth be told i kind of lost interest in the movie for a second b/c i want to know what they were yelling about. so one of the arguing party responds by saying "be quiet before i kick your ass" so everyone starts getting into it and the this lady next a seat away from me yells out "SHUT THE FUCK UP BITCH!!!" and then she starts to laugh, and then everyone laughs... it was so hilarious...

the end. maybe you had to be there...

and btw, have you guys been to century city mall? dude, it's totally fixed up now! they fixed up the movie theater and there is a new food court and it's all buzzing over there. i even had a drink with steve before the movie! i haven't done that since i saw a movie with leia at the movie theater near my house. i think we got tickets to "saved" with mandy moore, but then in true leia style snuck into another movie. nice!!! pretty awesome. anyways, i'd go there again. and if the corporate architecture, food court and masses amount of people wasn't enough to go this westfield shopping town, AMC still gives STUDENT DISCOUNTS!!! just bring your student id. how ever old it is. man i remember when a student discount was actually a discount. now movies are just ridiculously expensive.

one reason why my parents are cute...

well besides them being really into dancing, they stepped into a new realm that i never thought that would have done...

they went SADIES to a dance this weekend!!!

i'm not totally sure if they ran out of things to wear or what, but they look cute.

(notice how my dad is holding a mango in his hand which adds a cool breeze to their tropical attire... lol)

rain drops on roses and whiskers on kittens...

Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens

Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
