Dear Diary: Touch Typing

Today I woke up from a scary dream (not so much a nightmare, though) and when I saw my mom in the morning I told her about it. She didn't pay attention as usual, but this time I got upset. It just hurt my feelings that she usually doesn't give a fuck about what I say. And it's not as if I talk all the time, so much that I become annoying and people have to learn to tune me out. It's the total opposite, people sometimes have to beg me to talk.

Anyways, after I was done being butt hurt, I decided I wanted to learn how to touch type. I remember we covered that when I was in high school, but I didn't really learn. I found a free course online, so I'm using that. I already learned how to type with the first two rows, and I started on the third, but I'll continue on that tomorrow. And I probably should be using my new found skills to type this post, but it would probably take me a lot longer. And I'm tired.

I also decorated an eye shadow quad, and I wanted to paint my cell phone with nail polish, but it didn't work too well. Maybe I'll try spray paint.

Dear Diary: Siamese Popsicle

Today I ate a cherry ice cram bar, but there was some mistake because I got two in the same packet. They were joined by the stick, and one had a tiny popsicle stick. It was fun.

I finished watching "Bridesmaids", and I liked it. I think I expected it to be funnier, but it was good.

I found out my aunt got a new dog. That cow. Seriously, she treats animals as if they're disposable. Oh well...

Dear Diary: Movie Fail and Bored

Yet another lazy day. Today my mom was very tired from her Zumba class and slept all morning, then she went grocery shopping. While that happened, I began watching "Perfume: The Story of a Murderer" online. When my mom got back, I helped her put all the groceries away, while she cooked.

I didn't finish watching the movie, I kinda lost interest. But I'll probably finish it tomorrow. It's a long movie too, about 2 1/2 hours, and I only got the the 1 hour mark.

I played some Restaurant City, then I laid in bed for a while. My brother's friend came over again. She didn't say hi to me, wtf?. I began watching "Bridesmaids", but I didn't finish it either because it was taking forever to load, probably because my brother and his friend were using up all the internet juice. So I'll probably finish watching that tomorrow. It looks pretty funny, and I've wanted to see it for a while now.

Today was a pretty boring day online. The kind that makes me wish I had something to do outside of my house. I'll get over it.

Dear Diary: Movie Day

Today I'm feeling better than yesterday, but not quite great yet. I had oatmeal for breakfast, which was super tasty.

I realize I have to eat constantly so I don't go hungry. Since I've been eating liquidy stuff, I can eat a whole bowl and feel full, but then an hour later I'm hungry again. So I'm not really eating at my normal "times" right now, just when I begin to feel hungry.

Today my brother's friend took him to the movies to see "Green Lantern", and then they came back home and played video games all afternoon. She even stayed for dinner. I'm too embarrassed to go out looking like I am, so I just stayed in my room.

I watched "An Education" earlier today, and I really liked the film. I definitely recommend it. Also, I re-watched "Ghost World". I love that movie, it's just amazing :D

I can open my mouth a little more, so I ate an ice cream bar. It was a mint ice cream bar covered in chocolate, and it was delicious. My favorite ice cream flavor is mint with chocolate chips, so this popsicle was heaven in my mouth. I think I'll eat another when I finish this post.

My lip hasn't peeled anymore, but I have a crack on the left corner of my mouth, and it hurts a bit.

Dear Diary: I'm Miserable

Today I pretty much layed in bed feeling miserable. I'm not in pain, but I'm very hungry and uncomfortable. I've been craving a Burger King veggie burger and fries for days. Oh man...

I took a shower, and that made me feel better, but not entirely. My mom made me carrot soup and some spaghetti with Alfredo sauce. It was so good! I ate it right up. It took me a while with the spaghetti because I can't chew, so I had to cup it up into tiny pieces, gather a small amount in the tip of my fork, place it in my mouth and swallow it whole. But at least I didn't feel so hungry afterwards.

Max is being very cute. He lays at the foot of my bed and just sleeps there, keeping me company. He's really not supposed to be in my room, so my mom keeps taking him away, but somehow he always comes back.

Today is my brother's birthday, he turned 22. That's kind of insane. My mom made him his favorite meal, and a cake, and a flan.

I realized we have some of those plastic ice packs, like the kind you put in your lunchbox, in the freezer, so I've been using those in my face.

Right now I'm eating some mango yogurt. It's good. Also, my lip started peeling. That hurt a little.

Dear Diary: Wisdom Teeth Check-Up

Today I had my dentist appointment. It was at 4, so in the mean time, my grandma, mom and I went to Home Depot to buy some stuff my grandma needed. We also went to Walmart.

We went back to my house and I started packing, because my dentist is in another city where my grandma lives. We ate at my house, and I got to clean the huge mess my mom made in the kitchen. When we were going out the door, I realized I forgot my money. Thank God I remembered. Wow, Ana.

We got to the dentist just in time, and they checked my teeth. Turns out I have a couple of cavities, damn. Then I had some X-rays taken, and then I waited for the oral surgeon to come in. She explained how the wisdom teeth surgery was going to be, and all the risks. The main one was that some nerves could be damaged because my wisdom teeth looked as if they were in the nerve canal (or something like that), but that maybe they were behind it, and that the x-ray was misleading. She recommended I do all four at once, and she said that she could do the surgery right then, but that she preferred for me to come back early tomorrow. And that's what I'll do.

We went to my grandma's house, where I haven't been in since December. I saw my cousin Sofia, who I absolutely love and I hadn't seen in like a year. She is so beautiful, she doesn't look like a little girl anymore. Which kinda sucks for me, because now that she is a beautiful teenager she'll probably think it's lame to hang out with her older cousin. But we had fun. We wanted to go get some snacks, but we decided to wait for my uncle (Sofia's dad). When he got to the house, he had come from work, and he said he was tired and he told me to take his car. I'm a little uneasy about using other people's cars, but then my mom and my uncle decided to come with, so I took the keys and enjoyed the ride. It was a nice car. They got some sort of nacho concoction, but I was craving a corn in a cup. It was yummy.

I also got to see my other cousin, Sofia's brother, who lives in my grandma's house. Sofia stayed for the night too, so we all watched some funny YouTube videos. We also went to the part for a little bit. We had fun.

Dear Diary: Grandma

Today my grandma came into town, and I didn't see her until late afternoon because my aunt dragged her to my cousins' soccer games. And they're pretty lousy players, so she just went for the LOLz and to get a heat stroke.

Today I felt very cold. I'm not sure why. The air conditioner was on, but it is on most of the time and I don't feel the need to wear socks and a long sleeve shirt, like today.

My aunt, grandma, and cousin came over in the afternoon to chit chat, then they asked my mom to show them some of her Zumba moves. All of a sudden everyone (but me and my grandma) was dancing and there was tacky music blasting all over the living room from my aunt's cell phone. Then they decided they all should go with my mom to her class tomorrow.

My little cousin had one of those Let's Go Fishin' games, but she kept cheating and I kept saying "Cheater, cheater, cheater", as many times as I could. I don't think my aunt liked that very much, but I believe that children need to learn to play fairly no matter what.

My mom made dough to make her famous and delicious sweet potato empanadas. They're the death of me, I could eat those all day. She'll probably make them tomorrow morning :)

Dear Diary: The Joneses

I thought "The Joneses" was a really good movie. It started out okay, and then when you "find out", I thought it was going to become the cheesiest movie ever, but it didn't. I thouhght this movie portrayed some people I know, and it was interesting to see a fictional, yet not so much, side of how things work.

My mom finally set up her new bathroom curtain and it looks pretty good. I really didn't do much today, I didn't go anywhere. Pretty much I washed dishes while my parents went to the bank, and that was it.

Dear Diary: Pineapple

Last night I watched "Trust" and I thouhgh it was such a great movie. Definately creepy and something that a lot of people should watch.

Today I was being my typical annoying self and I made my mom sad, so I controlled myself. Later today my brother brought his girlfriend over, and my mom went to Target to buy some curtain loops for her new shower curtain. I stayed back and ate some pineapple that had been on the refrigerator for a while. It was pretty good.

I also ate some bread from yesterday. It was really delicious. I love sweet bread.

Right now I came across a movie called "The Joneses" with Demi Moore and David Duchovny and it looks like a good watch. I'll see if I like it.

Dear Diary: I'm Sad

This morning I was woken up by my brother tossing a bunch of balloons in my bed, followed by a dog jumping all over me trying to pop all of them.

Today I was feeling kind of down, I really don't know what was wrong with me. Maybe it's hormonal. I even shut my room's door. I rarely do that.

Yesterday my mom's friend called while she was not at home, and she talked to me for a while. It was kind of weird. And today while they were online chatting, she told my mom that I was a "nice and fun person to talk to". That doesn't sound like me :/ And that's exactly what I told my mom, and a lecture about how I don't have any self-esteem followed.

Then I had to drive my mom to Walgreens because she was meeting a lady who was going to give her something for my aunt. Since we we're already there, we decided to go into the drugstore. I looked at the make-up, but didn't like anything. I did pick up some dry shampoo, because the one I have has a very unpleasant smell. Then I bought us some candy. I tried the Milky Way Simply Caramel, it's so delicious. My mom got some Japanese peanuts and some dried mango with a sugary and spicy coating. Also, for some reason the cashier scanned a different bag of candy instead of the ones I was buying so it would come out cheaper. I don't know exactly why he did this, but somehow that unethical transaction cheered me up.

After that we went to a grocery store and we bought some sweet bread and I bought some apple cream that my grandma has and that I love.

Right now I'm going to watch a movie called "Trust". I stumbled upon it somehow, and it looks interesting. I'll see if I like it.

PS. I realized that Christians have issues against Pokemon so I deleted the Jigglypuff e-card from my friend's Facebook wall and posted a different one with a hamster with chubby cheeks instead.

Dear Diary: Spank Scare

This morning my mom and I called a bunch of dentists for information so we can decide where to get my wisdom teeth removed. My aunt's friend has a very good dentist, and I think I'm going to go with him. I really want to get this over with :(

Also, it turns out that my aunt had something kinda serious. My mom called her at noon to see how she was doing, and she was crying and saying that she could barely move because she was in a lot of pain. My mother then offered to take care of the kids while my uncle took my aunt to the doctor.

Then, I went to the grocery store to buy some stuff my mom needed for lunch, and I bought some Red Vines. I usually go for Twizzlers, but I got Red Vines this time because according to Sheldon Cooper, they're much better. And yes, they are pretty good.

We have a rocking chair in the living room, and my little cousin was rocking full speed and she hit the wall kind of hard, and she knows she's not supposed to do that. She stopped cold, and I jokingly said: "To the couch, time for a spanking!". Either I'm not very funny to children, she is very sensible, or she really get's spanked at her home but she kinda took it seriously and got very sad. I felt really bad, I was only kidding! :( I hugged her and told her that I was only kidding, and then my mom gave her a freeze pop. She was okay after that.

Later in the afternoon I watched the MTV Movie Awards online. I liked it it was funny. Robert Pattinson was too funny. I can't get over that.

PS. I ate another bowl cake. Bad Ana.

Dear Diary: Jigglypuff Card

Today was pretty boring. I took a shower, helped my mom put the groceries away, and that's about it.

My mom was going to take my aunt to her Zumba class, but my aunt cancelled last minute because she had a pain in her back. Too bad.

My friend got her wisdom teeth pulled today, and I made her an e-card featuring Jigglypuff:
You know, because she'll probably swell up and look like that Pokemon. I thought it was appropriate to the occasion and cute. I posted it on her Facebook wall, so I hope she likes it :)

Dear Diary: New Shoes

Today was a very lazy Sunday. Very calm too, which was nice. We had Chinese food, then my mom and I went to some stores just to look around and pass time. I didn't plan on buying anything, but I came across these shoes and I had to get them:

My other pair of black flats I've had for YEARS and I wanted a new pair, but I couln't find a pair that was good quality and cute. These are the same brand as my old ones, and I've learned that they are comfortable and last a very long time. I also got them cheaper than I would have if I bought them at the mall.

We also went to Target, I love Target! I bought some Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstain in Bitten Berry and Wink of Pink, and an angled eyeliner brush from e.l.f. which I absolutely love.

I almost bought salt and vinegar chips, but I controlled myself. After all, I had cake yesterday.

I also bought Avril Lavigne's new album, but I accidentally got the one with extra features so I want to return it and get the regular one. I can watch the DVD extras on YouTube.

Dear Diary: Cake is Good

Today I woke up feeling unseasy from a dream I had. It's kind of a recurring dream where I meet this little girl, and then she turns out to be a ghost and she haunts me for a while so I can help her and her family realize she is a ghost. Then she disapears.

Anyways, aside from that weird dream today was a pretty calm day. I woke late as usual, and in the afternoon I made one of my favorite things: mug cake! Except I don't make it in a mug anymore, but in a bowl. It's so delicious and quick and easy! I hadn't had one in a really long time because I feel very guilty about eating something like that when I'm not working out. But it was good :)

My mom made homemade pizza for dinner, and it was delicious. I had been craving pizza for quite a while now, so that made me happy.

Dear Diary: Alone But Not Lonely

Today my mother went out of town to visit her mother. And by that I mean the sister city right next to the one we live in. My brother drove her halfway and my grandma picked her up from there. Then my brother went to hang out with his girlfriend, my dad was at work, and therefore I had the house to myself for most of the day.

I went to bed at about 2 Am, so I slept in until 11 AM. Then I sang a bit. Which by the way, singing and playing guitar are some my favorite activities to do when no one is around. It's so fun.

I had coffee for breakfast. This is an ugly habit I recently picked up: skipping breakfast. I need to quit doing that. Then I ate some fake-chicken salad for lunch, re-watched some episodes of The Big Bang Theory, and began organizing my file box. My big disappointment of the day was that my mini stapler broke :(

Then my mom came home and told us about her day. Funny stuff.

Today was good :)

Dear Diary: Router Crisis

This morning my dear mother accidentally disconnected the router while sweeping the floor. I reconnected everything, but there was no internet connection. I pressed the reset button, which usually fixes the problem, but I guess I held it for too long because it reset all the settings. But at least we had internet again. I spent a while setting up the secured network again, which I didn't know how but I found a handy tutorial. Crisis averted.

So today I learned how to set up the router without my brother's help. That's nice.

Last night I watched Easy A. I liked it for the most part, but I thought the ending was a bit cheesy. But I laughed a lot in some parts, especially the whole "Pocketful of Sunshine" scenes. I replayed that part like 5 times just because I found it so hilarious and like something most girls have done at least once in their lives, haha. Also, for some reason I can't handle Lisa Kudrow in other shows/movies besides Friends. I loved her in Friends, which is probably why everytime I see her in anything other than Friends all I can think of is Phoebe Buffay.

Dear Diary: Daily Blogging

I decided on a whim that I want to blog daily about whatever happened in my day. I haven't posted in a while, and so I thought this would be a good idea. My life is pretty uneventful, so I doubt this will be that hard :)

Today I woke up early, which I haven't done in a couple of weeks. I had to turn in some scholarship applications so I went to my school to drop them off, since today was the deadline. I do not know if it's because I haven't been out of my house in a couple of days, but it was hot out there. Like suffocatingly hot. And I don't have A/C in my car. I had to get a Slurpee because I was dying.

After I dropped the applications, I stopped at Wal-Mart. I was only going to see their spray paint colors and to buy some eyeglass cleaner, but I ended up coming out with some hair product and a file box along with folders. I have important documents scattered all over the place, and I decided I needed to organize them.

Then I got home, ate, and took a long nap. I'm sick, so all the heat really made me feel worse. I really hate being sick :( When I woke up, the weather outside was horrible, and there were some warnings of hail.

Now I'm about to watch "Easy A", and then I'll go to bed. And that's about it.

Today was a total fail.

Today was one of those days that make me think that I've done something very bad and karma is trying to whip my butt.

First, I was in a hurry this morning, so I forgot to put my glasses, wallet, and hairbrush in my school bag, so I was blind, money less, and my hair was a mess. I also forgot my eyeshadow primer, so my makeup was pretty much only eyeliner and mascara. And okay, this wasn't terrible and I got over it, but I just was expecting this to be it.

Then, I became brain dead or something because I honestly cannot explain my stupidity (I probably need to stop watching "Keeping up with the Kardashians"). So today the professor was going to explain an assignment, so I wanted to be there on time since all last week I was late. So I got walking to my class with plenty of time and decided to kill sometime going into the bathroom and fixing my hair. My class is at 8:30AM, and it was 8:09AM when I decided to head to the classroom. There were people there, and I could see the lecture slides up, so for some reason I didn't think more of it other than "OMG I'm late again!" and just walked in and took my seat. The professor gave me the assignment handout, and as soon as I sat down, the proffesor was like:"Alright, so this is it. Good luck with your assignment, don't forget to sign up for a meeting with me". I was very confused, and all I could think was that the assignment was pretty self explanatory and that he wasn't going to be going over it. So I just got up and signed up for a metting with the proffesor, and I left. It was 8:15AM. My class hadn't started yet. I walked in on the 7:30AM class.

So not only did I miss the assignment instructions, but I made a complete fool of myself and I'll forever be the dumb girl who walks in on the wrong class and leaves before her actual class starts. At least the assignment is the same, but I had to send the embarrassing e-mail to the professor asking if I should re-schedule my meeting because I "accidentally" signed up in the wrong class sheet. And when do you think I figured out the whole why-did-my-class-end-so-fast situation? About 4 hours later, while I was daydreaming in my Statistics class. Yes, it took me that long.

Does it stop there? No way! When I left my class before it started, I though: "Oh, I have a lot of time all of the sudden, why not study for my psychology quiz!". So I did. But guess what? I studied the wrong material. Are you kidding me, Ana. Really?... This resulted in a 70% on my quiz. Balls.

And I know all of this is not that bad and one day I'll look back on it and instead of cringing I'll laugh, so I probably should also point out a couple of good things that happened today:

1. I found out I got a 93 in my statistics exam :D

2. My brother's girlfriend's mom sent me a bag full of Mexican candy. I'm a sucker for candy, but Mexican candy is just like a million times better than American candy. The only downside to this is that just yesterday I decided to go on a "diet", and this kinda throws me off a little :D
