Not doing a good job with the exercise....

I tore my back in half on Monday. Well, not literally but helping my friend turn her mattress. She didn't want to wait for her boyfriend... "I don't need a man..." she said. Well, I surely needed her boyfriend that day. HA! Anyway, we both tried to turn the mattress. After five or six tries, I stood up and thought how the hell we are going to get it done. Next thing I knew, a pain shot through my back like a knife. It was still painful that lasted for a long time. The next morning, I called my doctor and couldn't go meet our fitness trainer for our initial meeting. I was fine with that. It means, no working out cause I did dread going to meet up with my friend and her fitness trainer.
Anyhow, I seriously need to lose Fatso before I get my breasts reduction. I have till July 28th to lose at least 15 pounds. I can do it, if I just put my mind to it! But that's my story. I am 160.2 this morning. So different when I first started the diet and exercise plan two months ago when I was only 156.
Also this weekend, I went to a tanning bed for the first time since joining Planet Fitness and... I got burnt! I didn't know the tanning bed will tan THAT fast! I was there for fifteen minutes because that was the max. I figured since the girl that works there takes a long time to just get a light tan, maybe it'll take me four or five sessions to get my tan. Wrong! Only fifteen minutes! And my sides didn't get tan! So I look like a horizontal oreo cookie now! But to top it off! I had a shape of a paper towel on my side and hip because I forgot where I put the piece of paper towel! I was going to use it on the head rest! Instead, it attached itself to my hips! Now I have this weird spot on the back of my right hip!
Well, I will live and learn from this. Tanning beds do burn fast and do not hold on to any piece of paper towels.

Could It Be True: Brad and Angelina to Marry?

It can be a a possibly from the article that Kenneth Miller wrote in USA Weekend. And if so, I will be looking forward for this wedding! I hope they do get married and Angelina can be all dressed up and have her father walk her down the aisle! I will be watching and reading about this as much as I did with Prince William and Catherine Middleton.
But here are some quotes from the interview Kenneth Miller had with Brad Pitt.

“Kids hold up a mirror to you. You can't make excuses. You've got to make sure they've brushed their teeth and eaten a good breakfast. You want to be present if they wake up with a bad dream.”

“...I'll take the trade-off. I never knew I was capable of experiencing so much love.”

“The kids ask about marriage... It's meaning more and more to them. So it's something we've got to look at.”

“On the road, we're a military mobile unit. The kids have got their stuff down to one backpack, and they're each responsible for their own bag. Mom does the packing; she's quite gifted at that. Puts in just what we need — nothing extra.”

“We're pretty nomadic. We go where the crops are.”

“There are no secrets at our house. We tell the kids, ‘Mom and Dad are going off to kiss.' They go, ‘Eww, gross!' But we demand it.”

“I hope to keep riding motorcycles... until I can't stand up anymore.”

Losing 20 Pounds Nine Weeks

Well, my doctor and I plan on 13 pounds in two months but I am going to do 20 pounds in nine weeks. So that means, I have till July 25th to drop twenty pounds.
I am doing this because I need to get a breast reduction. My knockers are a triple D. They are huge and all over the place. I complain of back pains, neck pains, shoulder pains, sleep pains, headaches, etc., etc., etc. I am overweight, of course. So my insurance would not cover the procedure because my height and weight makes me fat and not a breasts problems. I wish those people can carry these watermelons around their neck for as long as I have and see if they enjoy them. I've always hated them ever since they arrived in middle school! So in order to get rid of them, I must lose these fat that are hanging on to me for dear life!

Nine weeks. Twenty pounds. I. Can. Do. It. *gulp*

Update 02.20.2018 - Did not lose 20 pounds or even 10 pounds in Nine Weeks! I was a slob! Food is my biggest weakness! SMH...

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt: Kung Fu Panda 2 Premiere

More pictures of Angelina and Brad Pitt at the premiere of Kung Fu Panda 2 in Los Angeles, California! More pictures can be seen at JustJared.com. Angelina wore a Michael Kors dress with Ferragamo shoes. She also wore jewelry from her line The Style of Jolie. Brad was more causal with his looks.

I love the first movie of Kung Fu Panda so I am excited to see part two with my nieces and nephews. If not, I'll drag a friend of mine to go. HA! Kung Fu Panda 2 will focus more on Po finding his real parents which hits close to home for Angelina and Brad's adopted kids, Maddox, Pax and Zahara. 

I just love how Angelina and Brad show so much love for their adopted kids as much as they show for their biological kids, Shiloh, Knox and Vivienne. I see videos of Angelina giving Maddox loving kisses on top of his head and in some videos her giving Zahara big kisses on her cheeks. Angelina wouldn't have known or have these feelings towards other kids around the world if she didn't film movies like Beyond Borders or Tomb Raider. After seeing the war torn countries in those films, she became more compassion for children around the world. And with that, three lucky kids are now in a very good place with Angelina and Brad as their mom and daddy. 

Hard to trust people...

Hard to trust people. Even myself. But with me, I have to live with myself so I can forgive myself easier. With other people, it is much harder. I don't like to be played and I truly hate liars!

Dieter's Tea

I'm going to give this a try. Dieter's Tea. Tea that makes your stomach want to all hang out through the back door. I just took one cup of the Slim Beauty Brand Dieter's Tea. A co-worker gave me two tea bags to try out. Especially after last weekend's food galore over my sister's baby shower and my friend's graduation and last night's Mexican dinner? I definitely need this to get me back where I was a year ago.
There's always pros and cons to using Dieter's Tea. Well, there's more cons than pros. Pros will be losing some weight... up to twenty pounds in two months without trying to exercise or go on some drastic diet. The cons, it'll tear up your system! And that's enough to not want anyone to use this full time.
I'm going to use it this weekend and "see" how it goes. I won't be using it daily as it'll give you the runs usually four to five hours after you finished your tea. That means, in the middle of the night, I'll be crying "Momma!". I'll have the runs as well as abdominal pain that are like cramps so this is just the weekend trial. Can't be doing it during work week!
Other cons, overtime drinking this daily, will cause liver damage, dehydration and detox even the best of the shit out of our system which means we will lose most of the nutrients and vitamins that our body needs.

The World is Falling On Me!

Scene from "Thelma & Louise"

My luck is usually not THAT bad but today... Today just seems like I wanted to drive my car over a cliff. I am bless that I don't live near some mountains or hills cause I would've drove off into the sunset over a cliff like Thelma and Louise! I just need to calm down and wait till it is really my turn to croak. I shouldn't be doing the Death's job for him. Forty four more years! I don't think I can wait that long till I die as per the psychic lady who had told me in Vegas.

The Vampire Diaries: As I Lay Dying

Last Thursday, I couldn't watch the Season Finale of 'The Vampire Diaries: As I Lay Dying' because I was out crying catching my breath from my Hip Hop Workout class and so I just finished it about a minute ago and I must say... I am dying! I won't be able to wait till the fall to watch Season 3. It is ridiculous to wait that long! The season finale got me crying every five minutes!

CW: Elena and Damon

I cried for Damon! I cried for Stefan! I cried for Jeremy! I cried for Bonnie! I cried for Caroline! I cried for Elena! I am all cried out... ooooouuuuuutttt oveeeeerrrr TVD!!
The shock: Damon was a vampire first and not Stefan!
The tears: Damon telling Elena (after he apologized for hurting Elena and confessing that he had a choice not to become a vampire)... "Because if I would have chosen differently, I wouldn't have met you...." Waaahhhh!!

The shock: Jeremy set Damon up to be killed/arrested!!! Correction: Jeremy didn't. Sheriff Forbes was notified that Damon was going to The Grill where she tried to shoot Damon but instead shot Jeremy!!

Elena and Stefan: Last Sunset for Elena

The tears: Damon telling he loves Elena and wish that she would've met him in 1864 when he was still human and kind!
The shock: The cure for Damian's werewolf bite is Klaus's blood!
The tears: In order for Stefan to save Damian, he has to leave Mystic Falls, including Elena and work for Klaus. He agrees because he knows Damon will take care of Elena!
The shock: Klaus killing his own brother, Elijah!
The tears: Sheriff accepts Caroline as her daughter and not as a dead vampire.
The shock: Stefan proves his loyalty to Klaus by biting a young woman!
The tears: Jeremy is killed.
The shock: Vicki and Anna are back!

The Season Finale for The Vampire Diaries was shocking and sad and definitely a cliffhanger for Season 3! It's going to be so long, I better keep myself busy!!

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt: 2011 Cannes Film Festival

Angelina and Brad

Wow! Angelina Jolie look absolutely stunning in a brown Atelier Versace gown with Ferragamo shoes that she wore for the premiere of Brad Pitt's film Tree of Life!
This is yet another beautiful dress that she wears to the Cannes Film Festival. Angelina Jolie is there to support her new film Kung Fu Panda 2 and Brad Pitt is there for his film Tree of Life which had been premiered today.
Yesterday the couple were at Tetou Restaurant for dinner in Golfe Juan, France. And earlier today it was announced that Angelina Jolie's directorial debut film "In The Land of Blood and Honey" will open in the United States on December 23, 2011.
In the mean time, I can't wait to watch "Kung Fu Panda 2". I'm sure it will be as great if not better than the first one.

Jack Black and Angelina

Speaking of KFP2, in one of her interviews with MTV, she laughed and said, "I've never loved my own voice. Like most people, you hear your own voice and you think, 'Ugh'. So I came in and I was Mae West for a while. I was doing southern, I was doing British, I was doing any accent I could come up with. Finally, they had to give me the talking-to that they'd analyzed my voice and they'd hired me and they were very fine with my natural voice. So please just stop doing those horrible voices."
Like her, I hate my voice too! And you can either find out how you sound like by recording your own voice or pulling your ears towards your face and talk! HA!
FYI: The pictures are from JustJared.com which is one of my favorite respectable celebrity websites!

Over a week! Aaacckkkk!!

I seriously don't know how to spell the sound of "I can't believe it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" as in Aaaaccckkkk!! or Aagghhhhh!!! or Ahhhhhhhhh!!!

Anyway, so much has happened in my life... well, actually everyone's lives that are close to me. And so many things happening around the world that involves people, places that interest me.

Cake by ENVY

First off, I didn't watch The Vampire Diaries Season Finale because I went to work out with a friend. She invited me to this Hip Hop Class. That was a stupid class! Very stupid cause it made me cry!!! Cried because my body was screaming with pain!! Pain because that stupid class gave it to me!!! I wanted to kill the instructor by the end of the class... but I didn't have any more strength or breath left in me to do so!!  But in seriousness, I enjoyed that class very much! I enjoyed it more than Zumba and I LOVE Zumba!! The instructor was too good and kept everyone entertained! But I paid the price for the days that came. My muscles, especially my calves, cried in pain. I couldn't go down the stairs without screaming "I hate you!" to my friend who was nowhere in sight to hear it.

So yes, I didn't get to watch the season finale for TVD. Then the next day, I had to get everything ready for my sister's Baby Shower and my friend's Graduation party on Saturday. I was running around in the hot sun all day! I took a nap around 4:00 PM and got up two hours later to run some more errands and continued with my shopping for the shower and party. I hate shopping with a passion! Even if I had zillions of dollars, I still will not go shopping! I hate it! Hate it! Hate it! Hate it!
Anyway, the party turned out great even though I was tired as heck! The baby cake was done by my sister-in-law, Envy. The booties are made out of fondant!!  It was so detailed it looked like the real thing! She said the top layer slid a little bit back because of the way my brother was driving! HA!
There were food galore at the party and I'm still recovering. I slept a total of four hours on Friday night and seven hours on Saturday night. I got up a little bit after noon on Sunday. It was great! My sister and friend were surprised and that's all that matters!

Happy Mother's Day!

Before I go, I want to wish every mother out there a Happy Mother's Day! This also goes out to all the women who don't have kids but are second mothers to their stepkids, their nieces, nephews, their cousins, godkids, etc. You are also loved and thanked on this wonderful day!!
I love all my nieces and nephews!! I'm thankful for their love and beautiful smiles and laughter!
And Happy Mother's Day to my mom. A woman who has brought a four year old girl from poverty in the villages of Laos, through the bomb mines of those jungles, through the hatred of our enemies, the prejudice from every race and creed, to where I stand today with friends and families in a beautiful city in America. I'm thankful, Mom, for your love to keep me alive, to keep me safe, and to give me a better tomorrow! Nothing I do will ever repay what you've given me! I'm blessed, and I know that I will always be loved!!

I seriously need to lose weight

If I would've just stayed with my dieting and exercising at least three times a week, I wouldn't have gained my twenty pounds back and now it seems much harder to want to lose it even though my head is getting all pumped to lose the weight.
I'm a loser. Going to bed and cry.

The Vampire Diaries: The Sun Also Rises

What an episode of The Vampire Diaries: The Sun Also Rises. I was just waiting to see what happens at the end and I am just so shocked that three of the characters in the movie died! I was more upset that Jenna died because she should remain being the one to still take care of two teenagers! But no, they had to write her off. This is what I get for saying Jenna should be a vampire and doesn't know it.  Well, she did turned into a vampire and didn't know it but then she died.
Now who is going to take care of Jeremy and Elena? Obviously, Uncle John died so who do they have left? Just each other but really? Will they be going to foster homes?
Anyhow, I love Sara Canning who played Jenna. From MTV's Hollywood Crush you can read a little bit of MTV interviewing her after Jenna's death.
This week's episode got me crying hysterically when John walked out the front door. At that moment, I knew what he was doing so I bawled. It was sad. He died so Elena can live and REMAIN a human!
With each episode getting better and better, I don't know how Julie Plec and Kevin Williams are going to outdo themselves each week for next season! Will they take some stories from the book or will they do more of their own writing?

It has been a while

I've been missing since the royal wedding. First of all, after the news of Osama Bin Laden dead and with watching so many movies on Netflix and then The Vampire Diaries, I've just been so tired.
I'm glad that Osama been Laden is now dead. Some of those families that lost their loved ones in that 9/11 attack can breathe a sigh of justice.
I'm just disappointed that people were celebrating on the streets. Cause my fear is that the Islamic terrorists are now more hateful and more pissed. They will be scheming more shit to destroy us. They've already sent us messages that they will do that. Argh!
Sometimes we Americans want to help so much that other countries just despise us. I hate terrorists! I hate people who are hateful. I just hate evil people. I just hate them so much! This just boils my mind. Maybe mother nature needs to destroy all of us and start anew. Our planet is the most alive but the most deadliest because we destroy ourselves. Damn! I need to stop before I get even stressed out.

The Royal Wedding Cake

I'm just amazed at the details of Kate and Prince William's wedding cake designed by Fiona Cairns and her team! It is really beautiful and I'm glad she kept her wedding cake all white and not colored. The cake was a seventeen layered cake! So many different types of flowers were decorated with so much details. I'm just in awe! And I have a feeling every new bride is going to want a cake similar to their cake. The only thing I didn't like about this is that a cake or two have raisins.
I'm still not over this wedding yet. I'm going to buy every magazine that features the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge on the cover.
Kate is going to make a great queen one day.

The Kiss: Prince William and Catherine Kiss on the balcony

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge gave their first and second kiss as husband and wife to the public on top of Buckingham Palace's balcony. This is the most exciting and happy marriage I've seen. We usually see the wedding party crying but this wedding was truly a happy union!

During Catherine's walk down the three hundred feet of aisle, Prince William refused to see his bride-to-be in her wedding gown until she was at the altar with him. He is such a romantic young man.Then whispered to her "you look beautiful..." Kate is a very lucky woman.

I wish the Prince William and Catherine a happy beautiful life together!

Prince William finally weds his love, Kate Middleton.

What a beautiful day for a royal wedding. Prince William in his military uniform and Kate Middleton in one of the most royal wedding gowns ever. Her dress is totally beautiful and stunning!
Prince William whispered to Kate when she got to the altar, "You look beautiful".  How sweet was that? Totally a loving husband he will be for Kate. She is really lucky and blessed to marry such royalty that has compassion and love!

Horror Marathon: Primal 2010

In the middle of watching "Primal". Interesting. A group of friends decides to venture off with one of their anthropology student friend into the deep jungle to study an ancient rock painting.
Now when they say jungle or forest, I would advise to stay in your city homes and locked your doors with your security system on and a workable phone hanging on your ear and any weapons like a butcher knife or machete or a baseball bat on hand.
One of the guys in the movie got on my freaken nerves!! If my boyfriend turns into a freaken monster, I will freaken kill his ass! I would not wait to see if he can be "healed". I was even more upset cause it took that idiot of a guy a long time to die in the movie! Argh! Okay, this movie is freaken disgusting and disturbing! Everyone in this movie is so stupid! However, it was still interesting to watch.
'Do not be so quick to celebrate your short victory' is the moral of this movie.

Week 3: LOL

I seriously don't think it's a good idea for me to post a picture of me today. As of right now, eating all weekend and all day today, I'm at 164.4. Shame on me! This is humiliating and down right depressing. I'm a disappointment to myself. And I was eyeing that last ice cream ball in the freezer... waiting to be fried by yours truly. Okay, I'll eat that last one tomorrow and I promise to never make another fried ice cream ball until I'm 130 pounds! And that is 34.4 pounds a way!
I promise! I promise to eat in small portions and exercise at least 35 minutes a day! I promise that after I eat my last fried ice cream tomorrow night! I promise! Waaaahhhhhhhh!

Going to be one fat day tomorrow!

Will be driving three hours to a friend's baby shower at a lake park! Then play water gun fights with a bunch of kids. Then eat lots of fat burgers, hot dogs, steaks, rice, desserts left and right! It's going to be crazy! And fat. And I have to weigh myself Sunday evening! It's not going to be a good weekend for this hog of mine but it will be great to be with friends and family! Will see what pictures I can snap up! I will take pictures of the food most likely!

Angelina Jolie signs deal with Louis Vuitton!

St. John Clothing model by Angelina

Angelina Jolie will be the new face of Louis Vuitton! The upcoming worldwide ad campaign will be in print-only and schedule to launch this summer. It will be marketed around the world. I'm so happy to hear of this news! I can't wait to see what the photos would look like. I rather see Angelina Jolie instead of Madonna, who was the last celebrity face for LV.
The news is going around that Angelina will get paid six to ten million U.S. dollars! Being beautiful has so many advantages! *sigh*  The gods hate me! They've made me short, stump, ugly and evil. But that is another subject matter. Carry on.
Angelina Jolie was beautiful in her St. John's ad so what can Louis Vuitton pulled in comparison? Where will they be shooting this ad at? What will she be wearing, holding and using by LV? I'm excited! Can't wait to see their vision on Angelina Jolie!

The Vampire Diaries: Klaus

Ian, Nina, Paul: Promo Pic for TVD on CW

What a bunch of OMGs tonight!! I can't say much, though, no one will read this but I still cannot say much since I follow all of the actors, producers on the show on Twitter and they ask for East Coasters not to say anything about tonight's show until the West Coast viewers have seen it.  I'll write about it tomorrow!
But there are soooo many shocking news! I just don't know where to begin! Klaus is so evil! So evil!
And it was the show down of Stefan and Damon fighting what is right for Elena. I don't know how to go through this one. They are both right in their cause, but in the end who do I want to be with?  Can't I be with two of them at the same time? Most countries allow multiple wives so why can't I, a woman? I want to talk more about what happened but darn! Hurry up, East Coast!! We got to get this moving!

On a good note

I am 158.4 this morning! Woo-hoo!!

The Vampire Diaries Tonight

Sara Canning TVD Vamped by Yours Truly

Can't wait to see what is going to be cooked up in tonight's episode! First, we will finally meet the real Klaus (Joseph Morgan) and then we may even meet Greta!! Sister to warlock, Luka!!
I'm looking forward to the fight between Stefan and Damon. I'm wondering what is going down with them two brothers who have fallen in love with one beautiful and smart teenager, Elena Gilbert! And the preview of Jenna "possibly" finding out about vampires in Mystic Falls! I, for one, would like the season finale shock to be.... Jenna is a vampire! Puaahhahahaha *evil-laugh* But she doesn't know it because she turned into a vampire but then was given some kind of spell/magic/potion/lotion many years ago!! A night that she took too much drugs to remember. Well, I can still hope that it would happen that way! I mean, TVD has so many twists and turns and shocks that I won't be surprise if Jenna was a vampire herself!!

What have I become?

Fat and still fat. Weighed myself this morning and I wanted to commit suicide. One hundred sixty two! What the hell? It was those darn dessert made out of I don't know what. I just know it was sweet and delicious! Argh! I. Hate. My. Self.
How do people get in the groove of things? I was able to lose the fat early last year cause I was going through a breakup and of course, my niece's wedding.  Now I have nothing to motivate my big flat ass to get mojovated. *sigh* I'm a loss cause. 162.0

Ah, Yeah, Come Celebration Comes Food

It is new year celebration for the majority of the Lao people across the world! And during this time the Lao people celebrate at their community temple with the buddhist monks. After the payers and the blessings, everyone dance, eat and throw water at each other to wash away the bad from their bodies. The food is the best at these events!! I've got a papaya dish and chicken wings on skewers! So I had another great papaya salad for dinner! However, I don't know how I gained three pounds in one day! Argh!

Wedding Flowers

Just wanted to share some bouquets of flowers that my sister did for our niece's wedding. Also, the money box that I glued ribbons on that were of her gray color.

Photo: Pretty Geeky

Chick Fil' A Again

I decided to have Chick Fil A's chicken wrap again. However, I included some waffle fries. Not a good idea if I wanted to remain on a diet but I can't help it. I really like it. For dinner what to do? What to do?

Friday Night Dinner

Thai/Lao Papaya Salad with shrimp

I met up with a good friend for dinner tonight at this great Vietnamese and Thai restaurant. We started off with the Thai/Lao papaya salad and the summer rolls.
The papaya salad we ordered it hot as they can get it and sure enough it was hot and extremely spicy. But I love it! Especially since they added big shrimp on it too. The shrimp tasted almost as though they pan fried it for a bit before placing them on top of the salad. Definitely added a twist to it.

Pad See Ew (Large Stir Fried Noodles)

Whenever I try a new Thai restaurant, I always want to order the Pad See Ew. The large noodles stir fry with any choice of meat with broccoli or baby bok choy. I love the baby bok choy more than the broccoli however.
Only a few Thai restaurants add baby bok choy. The rest uses broccoli.  But I ordered the Pad See Ew to see how each restaurant's differs. The one I had tonight was definitely one of the good ones. I like that burnt taste on the noodles and this one had a little bit of burnt. I like Thai Taste Restaurant's Pad See Ew. If in season, they use the baby bok choy.

Bun Cha (Vermicelli noodle bowl)

My friend ordered the vermicelli noodles with chicken and some other stuff. I should had paid better attention to what were in it.
I know there were chicken, peanuts, cilantros and the sweet spicy vinegar sauce that is poured over the bowl. Needless to say, we ate too much that my friend didn't finish her bowl and I didn't finish my stir fried noodle dish. We boxed it to go!
I had a satisfying dinner!

Another Cobb Salad

Wanted to show you the picture of the Cobb Salad from Red Robin's that I got last night. Damn! I think I am going to order another one tomorrow night! It was DEELICKSHUS!
But you know what is not right? The picture from Red Robin's website had blue cheese crumbs on it. Mine didn't have any. I have never liked blue cheese crumbs on my salad but for the past year, I really love blue cheese crumbs in my salad!
When I do call in tomorrow, I'll have to ask them to make sure they put some blue cheese crumbs into my Cobb salad!
Alright, it's late. Time to go to sleep. Get up and face a beautiful wealthy day tomorrow!
Until then...
Be Friday

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt: Date Night

I've always love reading about Angelina and Brad especially their date nights. They have six kids together so having a night to themselves is a good way to keep their relationship healthy and exciting. I wish I can say the same about my other sisters who all have as many kids as Angelina and Brad. Having a lot of children at once is a lot of work but my parents did it with six kids.
My mom always told us how she was lucky that we were good kids that didn't become rebellious, do drugs, drop out of school, disrespectful and such... HA! That is only because she kept a tight leash on our necks! HA! Actually, my mother was a tough mother. We've never argued back, hit her, spit at her like some of these crazy teenagers do to their parents. And there were six of us! I have to say that now that I'm older, I'm thankful to have all my brothers and sisters for their love and support. Yes, I am lucky!
Anyway, back to Angelina and Brad. Last night they went to the opening night of God of Carnage, a Broadway play by The Center Theatre Group's production in Los Angeles, California. They posed for several exciting hysterical fans backstage after the show! They were very generous to have done this for them. I hope they don't shut me down when I jump up and down in excitement meeting them too. However, my chances of  that happening will never be. I'll just catch them on the silver screen, television and internet. I hope to read more of their upcoming date nights!
Until then...
Be outgoing

The Vampire Diaries: The Last Dance

Elena and Stefan

Whoah! What another shocking episode! I just don't know to go right or left anymore with The Vampire Diaries.  I thought perhaps Bonnie did die or that she will come back later in another season but damn, I was absolutely shock!

Elena and Damon

And Damon! Argh! He needs to stop playing with my emotions! He is always making me hate him and then flip me off where I can't help but love him even more at the end! Poor Elena who has to deal with Damon personally!! This episode was exciting as last week's too! I have to commend the writers of TVD. I absolutely love Julie Plec and the rest of the writers with this season's story! Television drama has never been this good in a very long long time! Since "Who Shot J.R.".... and I've never even seen Dallas that much when I was a little kid.
But Damon, oh, Damon!
"If it comes down to you and the witch again, I will gladly let Bonnie die. I will always choose you."
He just melts my black heart.

Jeremy and Bonnie

Caroline and Matt

Alright, so this episode started off with Klaus in Alaric's body going to the school 60's theme dance. He goes there to get Elena, but secretly, until he directs Bonnie and Elena to the school hallway in hopes to find Jeremy in trouble. However, Jeremy and the three compelled students were not there, he had to fess up that he is Klaus. And that's when Bonnie goes into war'lock mode. Tries to destroy Alaric... I mean, Klaus, but failed and instead she is killed. I must admit, I cried when Bonnie looked over at Elena behind the locked doors knowing she is dying. I cried because these people are such great damn actors! Oh, and I cried when Elena cried for Bonnie's body and didn't want Damon to take her body. Then cried when she slapped Damon. Then cried after Damon said Bonnie is alive and they had to go through with it so Klaus will believe Bonnie is dead and also so Elena's emotions will be real. I'm just amazed how great this episode turned out. Granted it took thirty minutes before things got really heated but as always it did not disappoint!

Alaric aka Klaus in disguise

Now I'm wondering where Klaus went in a quickness. I'm wondering if he had secretly followed Damon and Bonnie to the old abandoned Gilbert house? And the sheriff? What is she up to? I'm waiting for Tyler's return! I didn't like him beginning of last season but I am so glad they are giving Michael Trevino a bigger role. So he needs to return. From what I can remember or discussed with my TVD crews, they need a werewolf, a witch and Elena to kill off Klaus. So Tyler will be returning. I just don't know when!
And also, since Elena had taken the dagger out of Elijah, it's going to be very interesting next week!
I can't wait for next week's episode. I'll be glued to my television and no one better disturb me.
Until then...
Be 180

Island and Beach Weddings

Bali

Hawaii
Source: http://funemployment.tumblr.com/

Speaking of the upcoming Royal Wedding, I would love for my sister and her fiancée of thirteen years to finally sign on the dotted line and get marry in Hawaii or Bali! So I've been surfing and looking at all these beautiful gorgeous beach and island weddings.





I know my sister wants a wedding in Hawaii but I'm looking at Bali and it is beautiful. But looking at the background of these Hawaiian mountains, it's definitely a beautiful scene to have a wedding.

The Royal Wedding Is Coming

Yes, it is coming and I am well prepared! I've asked to be off from work April 29th. I'll be waking up early to see the wedding of the century. I'm still so mad that they are going to marry at eleven o'clock in the morning, London time!! So it's six o'clock my time! I hate waking up early if I don't have to work! I guess I'll be up early to watch the wedding and then going back to sleep when it's done.
However, I just read that ABC will begin coverage around four o'clock in the morning with Barbara Walters and Diane Sawyer! And Fox, CBS, TV Guide Network and FNC are also going to do specials on Prince William and Kate prior to the big day. Fox News will begin two hours before the wedding as well so I guess I'll be up at four!! I may sleep early Thursday night, but dang it! I can't because The Vampire Diaries comes on at eight o'clock. It's so hard to make these stressful decision. Work is so much easier than this! HA!

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt MARRIED!?

Angelina and Brad at the People's Choice Award 2009

This is unbelievable! Words are going around that Angelina and Brad are married, well, from Hollywoodlife.com anyway. Is this true? If they are married, I'll celebrate it with them! They might as well get married, but Angelina did say that she will not get married unless her kids ask her and Brad to. Does that mean little Maddox had been asking, wondering, hoping for his parents to get married? Hollywoodlife.com is suggesting this because Angelina just recently sported a new tattoo and now a wedding band. The wedding band is on her ring finger but on the right hand. I don't know if she is just throwing that off so we will not all scream in shock or excitement but knowing Angelina and Brad, if they did get married, it would have been in secret. But I really want them to get married so Angelina can finally wear a wedding dress! Because she married her first husband, Jonny Lee Miller, in black leather pants! And she eloped with her second husband, Billy Bob Thornton, in Las Vegas wearing jeans!
I think it would be beautiful for Angelina to finally marry Brad and wear a simple but elegant white dress. And have their children in the wedding party! Perhaps have the wedding in their home in France? If so, I hope to be invited! Wishful thinking. 
Angelina and Brad deserves to be married to seal their lives as one! And I would not mind being their wedding planner... with no experience but I will get it done!
Until then...
Be wishful

Dinner: COBB SALAD!!!

Red Robin's Cobb Salad

I love Cobb Salads!!! And one of the best Cobb Salads I'd ever tried is Red Robin's Cobb Salad! They nicely put it on the plate as well! When I loss ten pounds in one month on my low carb diet, I ate Red Robin's Cobb salad twice a week for dinner with ranch dressing! It's fulfilling and freaken delicious!
I'll be eating that for dinner in about ten minutes! I ordered it to go from the restaurant and just got home. However, I had to write about it first before devouring it! Salad lovers, especially Cobb Salad lovers, do NOT miss this salad from Red Robin's! Price ranges from ten to twelve dollars!
Okay, got to go! Cobb is calling my name!
Until then...

Creating Good Energy For Money

I woke up this morning and weighed myself and I was the same weight since Monday morning. Still so scary. I gained a pound and a half since Sunday morning. What the pho?!?! On a good note, my money plant is growing so purdy. The leaves are growing from the base.
And if you don't know, having a money tree is supposed to bring you wealth, prosperity and luck. If you don't have the brains to get rich or too lazy to get off your ass to work, then invest in a money tree. However, it only works if it is a gift from someone else... UNINTENTIONALLY! So that means you can't ask, force, beg or demand anyone to get you one and you can't go buy yourself one either. It has to be given to you from someone ELSE.
If it keeps growing, you'll always have money coming in or live comfortably at least. Mine is slowly growing after hiatus from the winter months and only because I moved it from the dark dining room to the game room upstairs that has lots of sunlight.
If you do have one, try not let it die. Give it water once a week and put it in big nice pot. Once this baby of mine gets real huge, I'm going to transfer it into a bigger all porcelain pot. My baby deserves it!  But he needs to stay healthy. Can't lose him cause I do need money to keep coming.
Until then...
Be green

Oh, just a little info.... I bought the money tree myself. =0(  But I feel like giving a few money tree plants to each one of my followers (Blog Readers) as gifts. My cut off date will be Friday, April 15th, at 11:59 PM EST to anyone who would like to have one as a gift. Just leave a comment or email me directly. I'm not afraid to make this offer because I have ZERO followers. HA!
Please note that these money tree comes in many sizes, so don't be surprise with what you receive!

Bali

I was just amazed when I saw this picture of Tanah Lot, a pilgrimage temple on a rock formation off of Bali. I would definitely not mind living on something like this but with an architectural modern home with plumping, modern interior designs and furniture. Though I don't know how I'll take it when the storm comes through or even a typhoon. But it's been there for so long, I don't think it will do any huge damage.  Hold up second... I just googled Tanah Lot and it was restored in 1980 for 130 million U.S. dollars which was funded by the Japanese government. Over one third of the "rock" are actually artificial rocks. Wow! 

Pitch Black

Just finished watching Pitch Black from Netflix. I haven't seen this since it opened at the theaters over ten years ago. This is one science/fiction film that I enjoyed watching. From the story line to the characters. The shock of when the boy, Jack, is actually a girl. And then the cop wasn't a cop. Then how everyone feared Riddick and then at the end they needed him.
I will have to get this movie on DVD and Blu-ray so I can watch it instead of renting it.
Bonus: Vin Diesel look very good in this movie too. =0)

Body Crossing The Line

My body is crossing the line of being more than half of fatness! The fat percentage that I'm carrying around is currently at 42.12%!!! Note: I'm going with the U.S. Navy body fat formula since that percentage is .59% less than the YMCA fat formula. I used the Health Status website to determine my body fat percentage.
Each time I look at those two numbers, four and two, and trying not to read it backwards, I want to just faint!  The fat I carry is ALMOST HALF of me! This is scary! I need to be at least 22% of just fat. I will get to that one day. One day!
But dammit! The Fried Ice Cream is calling my name again!
He is so evil to me! And I have about ten more ice cream balls to fry. Lord, let me just have one tonight and I will watch what I eat next week?

Not again... Week 2

157.8 at 5'1"

Beginning of Week Two and still fat. Going to start on this diet and exercise plan tomorrow. I have to read up on what makes overweight people lose their weight. What motivates them? Me? Nothing at all. Nada. We shall see how well I do this week. Those damn fried ice cream sure taste so darn good in my mouth six hours ago. And had two bowls of lasagna! That crap was good too! Then I had pasta with pork chops for lunch. That shit was good too! I hate my body but my mouth loves food! Jai-Yo!
Until then...
Be mojovated!

Gas Prices Are CRAZY!!!

I can't believe how much gas prices are going within the past few months. I haven't gone passed $70.00 on a tank of gas ever! This is definitely insane!! I need a new car. Can't be driving an SUV anymore. Every paycheck goes to gas. What a life! What a world we live in.

One Big Fat Day

It started off real good with a Spicy Chicken Wrap from Chick-Fil-A' and then it went downwards six hours later. I ate like a wild boar by the end of the day.

Yes, I started the day with a Spicy Chicken Wrap with blue cheese dressing from Chick-Fil-A'. It was plain but seriously good. One thing that I do love about Chick-Fil-A'? Their customer service. Love it! Makes me want to order there all the time. The rest of the fast food chains, you're lucky if you get a decent employee. All three Chick-Fil-A' restaurants I've been to have always been courteous and friendly. Anyway, after that I drove to Locust but didn't make it to Sunrise Grill as planned since they close at 11:00 AM. So instead I decided to drive another fifteen miles to see my nephew's resting place. Not a single day goes by that I don't think of him. He was only eleven. A car driven by a drunk and he was sitting in the backseat.
My sister just dropped him off at his father's less than three hours before that because it was his weekend to be with his dad. Never thought I'd never see him again. That last wave he gave as a good-bye. The moment that I wish every day I would've given him a hug instead and tell him how much I love him. That moment that I can never get back. He was too young to know how dangerous alcohol can be. His father was supposed to be with him but instead he allowed my nephew to walk to his neighboring cousin's house to hang out cause he hadn't seen them for two weeks. Who would've thought...
I'm bitter and will always be because so many things that happened after that left a venomous taste in my mouth. *sigh* Getting upset again so I will stop there... but I went to see him today and brought some yellow flowers and a few coins. A custom in my culture so he will have money to spend in the afterlife. Actually, the burning of the Asian paper money is the appropriate way to do but a quarter or two will be good in the mean time. It was good seeing him. This is the resting place for his body but his spirit is with his mom and will always watch over her to keep her safe.
After a few tears here and there, I went to home and then head to my mom's birthday dinner. This year she cried. Dad was saying because she was watching a movie about this elderly couple who's own children didn't throw them a birthday party. But Mom said it wasn't that. We just asked her not to cry or she's going to make all of us cry and so she continued opening her gifts. We stayed a little bit past midnight before we left. My parents live with my youngest brother and his family so they weren't alone. Which is customary in our culture for the parents to live with the youngest son and his family.
I'm worn out. Ate a big slice of my mom's birthday cake and vanilla ice cream, two scoops it looks like. I'm stuff with the steaks and pork chops with sauteed onions and portabella mushrooms and crap legs and stir fried greens with my mom's famous hot pepper sauce. It was a very good dinner. Tomorrow will be lasgana before Monday. I'm dreading my progress picture tomorrow.
Until then...
Be blessed

Should You Live With Your Partner Before Getting Married?

We had a big discussion at work today. No, it was not in a meeting. It was our morning discussion. One co-worker don't want to live with her boyfriend until they marry. I told her, she needs to make sure they do get along domestically before getting married because divorces are much harder than just picking up and leaving when you're not married. Unless you two bought a house together then that is a little bit more complicated.

Source: www.prettygeeky.com

Her explanation is having that living experience together as a married couple. I believe in that but probably fifty years ago. These days people are divorcing left and right. Well, I also read that those that do live together first were also divorcing even after marriage. I think marriage is just dangerous! HA!
But weddings are so beautiful to attend! I should give more hope to this mind set of not living together until after marriage. My niece and her husband weren't living together until they got married. Their marriage is going well. But then again, they both have Christ in their life to help them. So I guess that will only help if you value Christ in your life and keep it as your top priority. So it works for those and it doesn't. But pertaining to my co-worker, I hope her marriage last. I'm sure it will. She is patient and kind and deserve a good man.
Until then...
Be hopeful

I'm Dreading Sunday

Dreading Sunday because I'm going to weigh myself again and take another horrendous picture of my backside. I feel awful this week because I went on food overload. However, a few of my friends and I decided to go on a "Weight Loss Challenge".
It starts Monday, April 11th and ends June 15th to lose twenty pounds. I will definitely have to put my warrior face on. I want to lose at least thirty pounds for life. Oh, I pray to the good Lord to help me have control. CONTROL!

Cheesecake from T.G.I. Friday's

So last night, I ate two fried ice cream. Today, I ate a cheesecake during lunch at T.G.I. Friday's and just a doughnut about an hour ago. *sigh* Tomorrow, is my mom's birthday party so I will be pigging out even more on desserts! Eating more doughnuts and cake! But I'll do all this pigging this weekend and then come Monday morning I will begin my diet and exercise. $320 investment I better put it to use!
My diet will be the low carb diet. I will still have some vegetables but more protein and then exercise to keep my blood flow moving. I'm just not so motivated right now.
Let's get mojovated!! =0(
Until then...
Be moving

Pigging

What a big fat day!!! I ate too much today and about to take a bite out of this Joe's Doughnut that has been missing for over twenty years from my life!! Cause the coffee shop closed down or something. Another restaurant came to vacant the place but their doughnuts were not the same.

Then somehow my sister was googling and found that Joe's Doughnut is now another name in a small town of Locust, the Sunrise Grill!!
Our friend was coming into the city and passing Locust so we made her go get some. And we begged her to taste it and she did and said that the doughnuts were definitely Joe's!!!
But it is not Joe's unless my taste buds has lost its senses. I mean big people don't really have a good taste bud, right? But the doughnut was still very good! Though I'm lost for words.

Finally Klaus Is Coming to Town

Joseph Morgan as Klaus on TVD

Tomorrow night is Vampire Diaries! I can't wait! Going to order dinner and sit one feet away from my television to see this episode! I hope it won't be scary since I'll be home alone!
However, after finally cleaning up my three day old tornado of a kitchen and eating dinner and then polishing my nails, I finally get a chance to surf the internet and Whoah! There is Klaus!! He looks so different from his other pictures with the short hair. He definitely fits the most powerful vampire of all time! He's tall, not too dark but handsome! Can't wait to see what he is going to stir up in the little town of Mystic Falls! I'll be glued and I may be posting blog during commercials. Maybe.
But here is your first look at Klaus!
Until then...
Be dangerous
