texting 101
Alright, i finally had to write about this.....alittle pet peeve of mine. Now, i dont mean to toot my own horn or anything, but i consider myself to be quite of a texting queen. When cell phones first came out with texting, i embraced it head it on and mastered my skills. (ask cuban, we had a contest: me with regular predictive texting to his so called "better" full keyboard layout texting) and yeah.....i smoked him! (afterwards i clam bagged him)
Anyhoo.....here's a rule of texting.........
DONT bother to text if its just to write words like "okay" or "no" or "cool"....the list can go on. There's no point to those except for wasting the reader's time. My phone will beep, "doodleloop!" and i'll think, "yay i got a message from someone." I'll go looking for my phone, flip it open, go to text messages and click to read "yep." What a bummer!! (and lets not forget annoying)
So people.....if you're in the middle of a texting conversation with someone. And that other person is like "hey i gotta go, ttyl." You DONT have to respond, especially if your answer is "ok."
Ok? =P
when life gives you a lemon...
well....so much has changed, yet many things are still the same since the last time i wrote in here. First, my dear friend joy has left. She's somewhere in the middle of the ocean on her way to South America first I believe. ::sasd
As for me, besides working like crazy. The only interesting thing Ive done thus far is my fast. Yes yes i did a week long fast. Some asked if i was doing it to lose weight...um duh!! Ive lost 40 lbs within the past 2 years not by starving myself but by just eating better and exercising, so why in the world would i fast to lose weight. Some people are idiots.
Anyhoo, i started my fast on Jan 2nd because I had to clean out my system, and besides for getting a colonic!!! I preferred the less "intrusive" method of fasting. So i did it a week where i only drank this lemonade concoction. For every 10 oz of water, you squeeze half a lemon, 1 tablespoon of maple syrup (not the corn syrup with maple flavoring like aunt jemima's), and a few dashes of cayenne pepper. Sounds appetizing eh? Well it wasnt as bad as I thought it was going to be. Tasted like lemonade with a kick!
You may be asking why those specific ingredients. Well the lemons are supposed to help cleaning your system out. The maple syrup is for nutrients you need AND it helps preventing the hunger craves. And the cayenne pepper is to keep your metobolism going.
The fast was actually not too hard. The 2nd and 3rd day was the worst. I had a huge headache probably from caffeine withdrawal. But it's amazing how much we actually eat and how little we can eat to be enough! But the hardest part was the weekend and you start to miss just the idea of eating and going out to eat, just the actual "act" of eating not necessarily the food. But my first day of normalcy, i ate some strawberries and they were the best thing on earth!!! =D
happy eats people!!
