Best quote ever...

I got this quote by Chris Rock emailed to me by a friend:
"You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named Bush, Dick, and Colon. Need I say more?"


Awesome...

Great quote

Here's a quote I came across today...I love it:

"We come to love not by finding the perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly... Only after we have lost everything, are we free to do anything... Throw things out there and not be perfect and not have answers to anything and see if people understand."

- Angelina Jolie

I love Angelina Jolie.

Ahh the immortal wisdom of children

This is hilarious! Sometimes the funniest (and most honest and accurate) things come from the mouths of babes. This was sent to me by my grandad; he has a great sense of humour.



HOW DO YOU DECIDE WHO TO MARRY?
(written by kids)

  1. You got to find somebody who likes the same stuff. Like, if you
    like sports, she should like it that you like sports, and she should
    keep the chips and dip coming
    -- Alan, age 10

  2. No person really decides before they grow up who they're going to
    marry. God decides it all way before, and you get to find out later who you're stuck with.
    -- Kristen, age 10


WHAT IS THE RIGHT AGE TO GET MARRIED?

  1. Twenty-three is the best age because you know the person FOREVER by then.
    -- Camille, age 10

  2. No age is good to get married at. You got to be a fool to get married.
    -- Freddie, age 6 (very wise for his age)


HOW CAN A STRANGER TELL IF TWO PEOPLE ARE MARRIED?

  1. You might have to guess, based on whether they seem to be yelling
    at the same kids.
    -- Derrick, age 8


WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR MOM AND DAD HAVE IN COMMON?
  1. Both don't want any more kids.
    -- Lori, age 8


WHAT DO MOST PEOPLE DO ON A DATE?

  1. Dates are for having fun, and people should use them to get to know each other. Even boys have something to say if you listen long enough.
    -- Lynnette, age 8 (isn't she a treasure)

  2. On the first date, they just tell each other lies and that usually
    gets them interested enough to go for a second date.
    -- Martin, age 10


WHAT WOULD YOU DO ON A FIRST DATE THAT WAS TURNING SOUR?

  1. I'd run home and play dead. The next day I would call all the
    newspapers and make sure they wrote about me in all the dead columns.
    -- Craig, age 9


WHEN IS IT OKAY TO KISS SOMEONE?

  1. When they're rich.
    -- Pam, age 7

  2. The law says you have to be eighteen, so I wouldn't want to mess
    with that.
    -- Curt, age 7

  3. The rule goes like this: If you kiss someone, then you should
    marry them and have kids with them. It's the right thing to do.
    -- Howard, age 8


IS IT BETTER TO BE SINGLE OR MARRIED?

  1. I don't know which is better, but I'll tell you one thing. I'm
    never going to have sex with my wife. I don't want to be all grossed
    out.
    -- Theodore, age 8

  2. It's better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need
    someone to clean up after them.
    -- Anita, age 9 (bless you child)


HOW WOULD THE WORLD BE DIFFERENT IF PEOPLE DIDN'T GET MARRIED?

  1. There sure would be a lot of kids to explain, wouldn't there?
    -- Kelvin, age 8


And the #1 Favorite is........

HOW WOULD YOU MAKE A MARRIAGE WORK?
  1. Tell your wife that she looks pretty, even if she looks like a
    truck.
    -- Ricky, age 10





Sigh, so amusing :)

Quote of the day

Today's quote:

Principles only mean something if you stick by them when they're inconvenient.


I heard it from a friend, I'm not sure where it originated from...

And now, back to studying - I have 2 more finals, one tomorrow at 9:00 am and one on Friday at 12:30. Sigh.

I am so so frazzled.

In lieu of being too lazy...

Found a neat site I'll be trying to check now and again, with some good links:

Cosmo Blog

Eventually I'll get my blogroll (or whatever it's called) back up...

I tell you - when people in real life find your blog, it's like having an arm cut off. I miss having my shit up here for people to read and comment. It's even worse when the person who found it becomes important to you (ie, new boyfriend) and it seems worth it and no big deal that this big support group is gone cause things are so good and fun. Then that ends (new boyfriend = ex-boyfriend) and not having my blog space seems so much worse than I ever thought it would.

Who knew that this outlet was so vital for me?

Almost back

Well, I'm in the process of coming back. Real life has proven to be very time consuming, so we'll see how long it takes.
My blog was discovered *gasp!* by people that actually know me, so I had to take drastic measures and bring it down. I've learned a valuable lesson (no such thing as anonymity on the internet) and realized that maybe I don't want such private thoughts out in cyberspace for anyone to read.
It's a good lesson for me and I'm looking forward to taking my blog in a slightly new direction.
Now I'm off to class,
