Quotes

Beauty is only skin deep. But ah! me; freckles go to the bone.
- quoted by Mrs. Lee Whipple-Haslam in Early Days in California

I think Fridays are a waste at work because I long so much for the weekend. So I say Thursday should be the new Friday. But if Thursday were the new Friday, then Thursday would feel like Friday and I would insist on Wednesday being the new Friday. Well, you can see where this leads-a world without a set work week and a life full of happiness and splendor.
-quoted by Shira-On a very long and tiresome Friday

Don't Judge a Book By Its Cover

I was very disturbed the other day from responses on a message board about a photo of Heidi Klum and Seal. People were ranting and raving that mixed couples are 'against the bible' and that god does not want black men and white women together.

Being a product of a black man and a white women, you can see how this would rub me the wrong way. Well, I'm not a fighter, and I don't know where those people are deriving their facts, so I simply posted one of my favorite quotes by Antoine de Saint-Auxpery, "Love does not consist in gazing at eachother, but in staring outward in the same direction."

I don't know if that posting did anything, but I hope it made one or two of those individuals think.

If I Was A Graphic Designer...NaNaNaNaNa

I want to up the ante on my blogging, but I'm not sure how. I love all the detail I've seen on other folks blogs (cool headings, side logos, etc.), but atlas, I'm not a graphic designer. Not that you have to be to put together a blog (case in point, me), but I think to have some more skill base in the web designing world would make my blogging experience flourish. I should put more into my bay area sandwich blog, however, I haven't been eating at many different sandwich shops in the bay...so I'll have to work on that.

As for this blog, it is just comments, thoughts and randomness from and about me. I may start another blog about something more specific (and less narcissistic-in reference to the latter blog) haha. Does anyone have any good topics I should blog about? There are tons of current event, gossip, fashion, etc. blogs. I guess there are plenty of blogs about everything, now that I think of it. I will work on improving the quality of my two blogs, and the format, and then expand from there (if I am successful).

I've been a little under the radar lately with my entries because I just had a birthday..yea 24, and I've been out of town over the past couple of weekends (or just pretty busy). I'm now gearing up for the CBEST this weekend, so I'm just working and studying all week. I'll have more time for entries and formatting after Saturday. So stay tuned!
