Hump-Week 58

1. Macaroni: errr... I don't know. Make spaghetti, 'cause I like Italian food. Make a macaroni collage and paint it. Abstract art! And I can't think of anything else...

2. If I were to go back 50 years in time, I'd take with me a digital camera... or maybe a cell phone and travel around the world. I mean, there's so much going on in the 1950's! Aftermath of Cold War, the beginning of Vietnam War, etc... I'd give credit to the inventor. I don't steal others' ideas!

3. Things I'd put in my time capsule: notebooks of poems, printouts of my writing pieces, my origami collection, my collage and artwork, CD covers of my favorite artists, movie covers of my favorite movies/films, a diary of my life's adventures, my essays on altruism and the importance of it and what I did --->include the importance of saving the environment, recycling programs, etc. Photos of friends and family. I'd wait because I'm patient, and it'll be cool being nostalgic every so once in a while. Once I unearth this capsule, it'll be when I'm old---maybe like 70-80 years? depending on my health...

4. If I could change one thing in my life? Errr, could it be 2 things? I don't really want to say it all: but one thing I'd like to change is to tell my sister that I'm sorry for not being the greatest sister and that I wish I had a second chance to really get to know her before she passed away. If I could make one thing change in my town, it would be giving the homeless food, etc. If I could make one thing change in this country, it would be that people should become more aware of the glass ceiling between genders and that racial prejudice still exists, and we should stop that--stop conditioning ourselves to hate each other or subconsciously hold grudges. If I could change one thing in the world, it'll be to stop the war in Iraq and that all countries should stop having all of these issues with one another. Why must war always be a way to solve things? It doubles--triples--the problems!

Hump-Week 57

If I did "let one slip," I'll just laugh it off and giggle like I'm insane. We're humans, and it's natural, even though I'll be a bit embarrassed. And if my date did that, I'll be polite and shrug it off like nothing happened. Hopefully, if it IS by accident, then sure, I'll continue to date that person, but if my date is repeatedly doing it on purpose just to push my buttons, then forget it!

In the ways I'll be covering it up: blaming on my big meal I had previously, so hey, I'm bloated!! Haha!! I'll giggle it off.

Yes, I do have a real-life "gas" story, but doesn't everybody? It was all during "math enrichment" class period when I was in sixth grade. My stomach was always upset, because I now know that I'm more or less lactose intolerant in that I can't just drink plain milk. No one knew that it was mostly me who let it all slip. They all thought it was this guy. And the funny thing was that this classroom always smelled, so my stomach problem was just a minor problem. Some days it smelled like stinky feet, other days, it smelled like a stink bomb had exploded... It was funny how my teacher always used the air refreshner to make the room smelled a bit more "flowery." Too bad that that "flowery" smell didn't last very long. The room was still stinky and awful. Even now, I have no idea how my nose managed to survive that class... Go figure.

Act like my mom (some traits): getting things done on time, instead of putting it last minute, perfectionist, we both like jewelry

1. Digital marquee messages on my forehead (morn, noon, & night):
