The Rescued Fragment

Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, Turkey, Photos from my trip to Azerbaijan
This is known to be the "first church" but when a holy war erupted in Turkey all the original mosaic artwork was plastered over with Muslim paintings. When the war ended, people were able to uncover the original artwork. Though many of the mosaics are left damaged, here are some of fragments that were rescued =)

Mmm^^*

Currently a beautiful 70 degrees in Blue Bell
Definitely a day for open windows and a Kumbaya-tree-hugging excursion to my backyard.

You got me all jittery, sayin' a million words a minute...Starbucks.
Seriously gotta think about laying off the coffee first thing in the A.M.
I was reading so fast I didn't even know I was reading...although that's a reoccurring issue since I'm prone to daydream only about a million times day...

Indulge: "Behind the Scenes at the Museum" by Kate Atkinson
*Highly recommend!

My Eyes

The very sight of a little girl in a pale yellow patent raincoat, a cupcake, the color of a hanger, soaked fallen leaves smashed against the pavement, spaghetti sauce-stained lips...

...the lonely cloud, chubby rain, little squinty eyes, gaping gooey eyes, grotesque calloused hands, the rusty nail peeping out from weathered wood, a squirrel's cheeks stuffed with goodies to take home, baby feet, baby hands, baby anything, ginormous pizza, steam from my coffee, steam on my glasses, my grandma's loose earlobes, my daddy's boastful belly...the lingering remains of a homeless man--his abandoned blanket and an old Tastykake wrapper...

Profundity

The struggle with limited time is timeless.

And...I miss my crayons.

"But there is an influence in the light of morning that tends to rectify whatever errors of fancy, or even of judgment, we may have incurred during the sun's decline, or among the shadows of the night, or in the less wholesome glow of moonshine." -N. Hawthorne, Rappaccini's Daughter










*PS (5:23am) I'm a sleepy mess and this is what I typed in my paper unconsciously:

"Hawthorne incorporated this piece with marshmallows, do it! HAHA it is..."
-Ellen Hwang

...AHAHA can I quote myself?!...sure I can! this is MY blog!

...yeah...so I definitely fell asleep thinking about fluff n' nutter =( and thought I was having a conversation with SOMEONE... =(

Mint Chocolate Chip Ice cream, Old Friends, & Computers

Top 5 Ice cream:
1. Baskin Robbins- Mint Chocolate Chip
2. Zwallens-Vanilla
3. Haagen-Dazs Coffee
4. Coldstone- Banana
5. Hershey's- Cookies N' Cream

I wanted to reward myself today for getting all my CIS HW done, but I completely failed because I am computer illiterate and impossibly impatient with anything that has to do with artsy software (why can't they just let me use a frigging pen and draw on the screen...VOILA~ I'd have you a masterpiece website with all your deepest desires...).

I've had my eye on Baskin Robbins Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream ever since school started. Sadly, making a left turn on 73 & Butler takes too much time and effort...so I always tell myself that AFTER class, I'll get me some of that good stuff...*sigh*...never happens...UNTIL TODAY!!! Although I couldn't reward myself for completing my HW assignment, I justified my little guilty pleasure with the fact that my head hurt from Dreamweaver and that I needed something delicious to remedy it ^^* teehee!

Hmm...
Old friends...No, not the friend whom you haven't heard from in awhile, but the kind of friends that you probably will never see ever again. Not because you don't want to but because you have no means of reaching them.
So...I started a mental list of all the people I could think of that I have no means of finding them. All I remember are their first names
-Lisa (6-7)
-Wendy (5-7)
-Billy (K)
-Philip (Pre-K)
-Samantha (Pre-K)
-Jimmy (K-2)
-Gerri (3)

...Hmm, I thought there were more...but I guess that's it. HA.
Not as profound as I thought it would be. Anyhoo~ Maybe they will find this blog...HAHA =)

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...
I wanted to blurb about how much I hate computers, but then realized how sadly ironic it would be for me to complain about how much I hate computers ON a computer.
So...for the moment, I just hate Dreamweaver and think I shall skippy on to Barnes and Nobles to purchase me "Dreamweaver for Dum-Dums".

...oOo I LOVE Dumdums~!!!


OO!
I worked out yesterday for the first time in an attempt to be healthy and remain young.
IBC has individual TV for ellipticals now!!! <3 love it! I also popped a pimple that really hurt =( gross.


Look how cute!



Wow, I fully enjoyed writing this mindless blog <3
