California here I cooome!!

I am going to California for work!! For the APS conference (which will be really boring just presenting research) but it's sunny, beautiful, economically expensive California. I hope I meet someone there named Seth or Summer just so I can pretend they are from the O.C. I leave on Thursday (why the frak did we book a 7 am flight *cries a little*) and won't be back until Monday. 

So Happy (early) Birthday Kelly!!!

I hope your day is loads of fun. Filled with good friends, good cake, and loads of alcohol!!

 HOLY SHIT ON TOAST BATMAN!!!

GREY'S ANATOMY FRAKKING KILLED ME


GEORGE!? IT WAS GEORGE!? I WAS EXPECTING IZZE (please don't let her die, either of them) BUT NOT GEORGE

FIRST LOST LAST NIGHT. NOW GREY'S

THIS IS THE YEAR OF KICK ASS FINALES FOR ME.


GEORGEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1. Merry Belated Christmas to all. It's kind funny how I'm always late in giving out warm wishes.

2. I have been geeking out on all things X-Men lately (specifically that of Remy LeBeau and Remy/Rogue). It all started with this amazing fanfic Green Eyed Monster by IvyZoe, and then exculated with the X-Men Orgins trailer. Remy finally coming on to the big screen, and in a fedora none the less....*dies a happy fangirl death*. I have watched the trailer a billion plus one times, and my brain turns to mush full of dirty , giggly, happy whenever Remy and the fedora appears. The only thing that bothers me about the trailer is no red on black eyes. I swear in the final cut the man better have his red on black eyes or I will be pissed. 

3. I am counting down the days till X-Men Legacy issue  #220 comes out (Jan 29th). My Rogue and Gambit will finally come back to front and burining center. As much as I'm enjoying the focus on professor X, and how bad ass and dark he is becoming; I hope at the end of the run the three of the them join up with the X crew in San Fran. 

4. Wolverine and the X-Men premieres Jan 23 on Nicktoons. Yay!!

5. Lost! bitches!!

6. What will it take to get Marvel to bring X-Men: The Animated Series out on DVD? 

 The movie Mulan is the shit. 

The story.

The culture it represents and displays. 

The artwork.

The music.

The love. 

"The greatest gift and honor....is having you for a daughter" *cries*

One of the best Disney animated movies ever. It ranks right up there with The Lion King, Peter Pan, and The Little Mermaid for me. 

How much do I love Disney right now for showing it....A LOT!!!!


Grandmother Fa: Great. She brings home a sword. If you ask me, she should've brought home a man. 
Shang: Excuse me. Does Fa Mulan live here? 
[Grandmother and Mother dumbly point to the garden] 
Shang: Thank you. 
Grandmother Fa: Whoo! Sign me up for the next war. 

The shit I say, the shit. 

 I have been gone waaaaaay too long. My only excuse is that life has been blissfully hectic. 

I job. I got a man (will be a year in Feb), developed a new obsession (Mad Men)  and.....

I turned 21 

My birthday was so much fun. I didn't go out and party like a normally do. I hung out with my family and boyfriend (separately, no way am I throwing him to the wolves yet), but it was nice since I hadn't done that in  while (school and work keeps me very busy). I had a tiara and a sparkly dress, that I hated to take off come Thursday. It was so pretty and sparkly. Like the princess in the Mario Brothers games. 

We had chocolate cupcakes that put together made a Barbie cake (yes I refuse to grow up) and wore party hats and everything. I got so really kick ass gifts. My boyfriend got me a silver charm bracelet that has a disco ball (we met at my sorority mixer) a heart (it was near Valentines Day) and lettered charms that spells out I love you. On the back of the heart is says '100 minus 1 day'  *elated grin*

My sister got me this big, pretty, yellow Nine West Purse, my other sister got me the beautiful leather gloves that I had been drooling over since forever. My mother got me this really pretty purple coat that  looks like this expect my buttons are square. My other sister is going to bring me my gifts this weekend. I feel so spoiled, plus Christmas is just 6 days away *dances in a happy circles* December is the bestest month ever :D

Happy (belated or early) Birthday to all those that I missed (Sandi, Mikey,..) and those that are here/soon to come (Elise, Fizzy). I hope you all have had or do have fantabulous days. 



 

Yes We Can and We Did

Barack Obama  is the president!!

I am in tears people. I never thought in my whole life I would see a black president. Someone who looks like me, and has the same type of values and beliefs is president. 

This is like to the level of Martin Luther King Jr. 

No longer does my little brother have to think that he has to be a rapper, a basketball player, footballer, or some type of thug. He can finally believe that if he works hard...if we work hard, if we get an education, we keep pushing and going. We can do it. We can bring about changes. t\The world cannot keep us down because there is someone like us, who has achieved something that has never happened before. He is the first black president, and inspiration not only to black people like me, but to any and everyone. 

I am so happy, and awed and in tears. I never thought I would see this day. 

Change really does feel good. 
 

I love Skins. So frakkin addictive. The Brits do it better.

Tony is an ass but I can't help but love him, and Cassie is my homegirl. I want to marry Sid and have all his glasses and skull cap babies.

I love Maxxie and Michelle and Anwar and Jal. I love this show. I hope the new cast for series three (gotta download series 2) is just as lively.

ETA

Chris!! How can I forget Chris. Love him too.

Okay so I just wasted 330 bucks on something I don't need *stares daggers at her computer* so anyone need Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac just comment with you address and I will give it to you for FREE. If I know you or not doesn't matter to me. If you want comment (comments will be screend so only I can see it) or drop me a line at selinaa15@yahoo.com with the subject I want and it's yours :D

Yesterday was extremely fucking hot. Today is extremely fucking hot. Where is a pool when you need one?

I am way too impulsive for my own good. I literally see it. Want it. Buy it. Gah I'm jobless and broke yet I cannot stop spending.

Remember how I brought all those books and said I was broke. Well I’m even broker because I want shopping my sister and mom and brought a whole bunch of cute clothes that I should not be buying. Plus I went to Borders and saw a whole bunch of shiny pretty books that I want *cries* I wish money would grow on tress, which it kinda does since money is made of paper and paper comes from tree. Dudes I should cut down a tree and make my own money. I could totally become Leo DiCaprio from 'Catch Me If You Can'.

Oh I went and saw SATC movie last night with my gal pals, Arlyn, Lee, Christina, Ashley, and friends of friends. I floved the movie and recommend everyone go see it with a bunch of their nearest and dearest. You will totally come out of it appreciating your friends much more. After the movie we ate Chinese in Chinatown (which does not look like China to me at all, granted I've never been to China, but Lee who is form China and moved here four years ago said it does not look a think a like expect for that huge center piece thing in the middle of the street) had some ice cream, and walked around.

Have you guys seen the movie 'The Seven Year Itch' with Marilyn Monroe and her infamous white dress blowing up and trying to keep it down thing? Well there was one of those things (I can't remember what they are called) on the street in Chinatown and although I wasn't wearing a dress I was wearing a loose blouse and shorts and my blouse would puff out and I would pretend to be Marilyn trying to bring it back down again. It was very fun and funny. Especially all the people walking by looking at me like I had lost all my marbles.
