It's not real...

I feel like I have a bag over my head. My grandma is supposed to comeback from her cruise on the 25th with a cute lil dress for Maddie...not cremated in a box. I'm not really sure what else there is to say other than, Rest in peace Grandma I love you so much and I know you are up in heaven watching over us.

Please pray for our entire family. Not only are we dealing with her untimely death, but we know there could be a major struggle getting her things in order. Keep our tongues in check...even when there's one person who deserves to get a new ripped... more than once.

Ways to control future classes

Today was orientation and I have to say I was going through moments of fear and excitement almost at the same time. I was talking to my mom about getting the class's attention and we came up with this...

"STHU YOU UNGRATEFUL PUNKS BEFORE A CUT..YOU!" or something like that. What do you think? Appropriate or too harsh? I guess it depends where I teach. I could always try the classic "Excalibur stare"... "I'll wait." *glaring at you*. It really worked, just asked some of the adx alumni.

Why do ppl get so huffy about the dumb stuff

There's an article online about how celebs are getting paid to tweet and now it's some controversy. Who gives a flying-fart that Kim Kardasian tweets about Carls Jr. If you don't want to see her tweets....DON'T FOLLOW HER! Twitter is no different any other media outlet that people use to sell a product. Honestly, it's a brilliant idea. Kim has over 2 million followers so if just a small percentage of those people see the tweet and go by that Carls Jr salad then she was worth it. Shoot. I wish I would have come-up with such amazing idea. Oye... I don't care, but the world is so stupid.


btw- do you know anyone that will pay me to tweet about their protect? :) i have 38 followers!!!

I know you may think this is innappropriate...

But I'm going to share it with you anyway.

"The Washington Post's Mensa Invitational once again invited readers to take any word from the dictionary, alter it by adding, subtracting, or changing one letter, and supply a new definition.

Here is the best of the best, at least in my opinion :)
Ignoranus : A person who's both stupid and an asshole.

My mom thought it was so hilarious that she plans of using it in everyday conversation

What is so magical about alcohol pictures...

I swear, every time I see posted pictures on facebook or twitter it's of a glass of wine, or beer, or of a bar and I don't get what is so cool about that. I understand that people want to take pictures when they go out, but they should at least include a person in them. For instance, I get people taking pictures @ 21st birthdays, but don't just take a picture of the beer... take a picture of the person drinking the beer. But I don't know, I don't drink, but I can get on board with this... I'll start taking pictures of bottles of water and soda cans. So stay tuned for some really awesome pictures.

why so nostalgic Alie?

Why am I feeling so damn nostalgic? Last night I was sitting in bed and, I'm not sure if it was some one's status or picture, but I started to think of ADChi and undergrad and literally started to cry (and smile). I just started to think of all the laughter and shinanagins that went on almost every night and then I started to realize how much a miss it.

Then I wake-up and I see a tweeted picture of a class of beer and crayons and that made me start tearing up about all the years we went to softball tournaments, and how crazy and fun those were. Every time we would go out of town all the guys would play ball during the day then everyone would meet back at the pool and the kids would play while everyone else worked on a 24 pack of miller light. Then we would go out to dinner and the adults would again get a beer, while the kids colored their kids menus. I know that sounds redonk, but it was a big part, a fun part, of growing up, but now everyone is retired and/or the kids are all grown up so they would never go to the tournaments anyway. Can you tell I'm resisting the reality of growing up? because I definitely am...


This is the picture I saw...

voyerism is fulfilling

I'm kidding, but really, it's just fabulous when all these people tweet pictures of all the AMMMMMAZING things they do. I've gotten to see Katy Perry's pink tree and the Kim Kardasian playing a board game with Reggie Bush. Then pictures of Soap stars skiing on their time off or recording a cd with their band. Then to top it off you can leave thought provoking comments on those pictures... I really can't think of a better way to spend my time at home.

I think I should also take some time to wish you all a very happy New Years. I can't believe it's been 10 years since we were all freaking about Y2K. In that time we have witnessed the worst attack on US soil on 9/11/01, San Diego experienced two horrific fires. I graduated from high school and college. Made some of my best friends during my time in ADChi. I had the honor of being my sister's maid of honor and spent the last 8 months getting excited for the newest addition to our family, due in March. There were definitely some things that sucked butt, but overall I wouldn't change a thing and I'm excited as this year begins
