This weather permits my flowers to bloom all over again

The letters that brought about happiness and sweet relief

To Prof. Peter S. I am writing this letter in a really distressed state. I was just now checking on my grades in all of my classes And I was flabbergasted by my Physics grade. I really am not sure if I calculated it correctly. So if it is not too much trouble do you mind informing me of my grade as of now? I would gladly come to your office hours if need be. The letter he wrote back Hi Yvette (Is it weird that him writing my name made me feel important? Kyaaaa! The professor knows my name!) You currently have a B . As I mentioned in class today, this is a PROJECTED grade assuming that your future homework scores are the same as your past homework scores, your future exam scores are the same as your past exam score, etc. Therefore, the first midterm exam has a lot of weight in this projection. You can improve your grade by doing better, ESPECIALLY on the exams. You've been doing well in the lab and pretty well on the homework, and have 100% in the participation cat...

First half week of school

I met the coolest girl ever. She was the first person I ever hugged the first time we met. Perhaps she is my soul twin? Only more outgoing and confident. And I have been very M.I.A. not that there's anybody to notice but me. I just was lazy. I need to set a schedule to follow. That means. I have to plan hangouts in advance and more importantly I have to plan ahead for exams and home works. And I so do need some gym time! I am so soft and mushy. I need (aka want) to be a well-oiled, lean, mean, fat-burning machine. Like ASAP. The picture had me cackling like crazy just thought it would make some netizens laugh too. Read it not seriously.

Drama love

I love me some Korean.......dramas. I am currently watching Faith: the Great Doctor and To the Beautiful You. Loving both a lot. Think I'm equally interested in both.......argh can't choooose. Don't make meeee. With Faith, I wanna see how Choi Young ( aka bait monster Lee Min Ho) gets out of the predicament he's in. He was made to look like a traitor who was wants to reinstate the previous king. I feel sad when I think about the king who is trying do hard to serve his country and friends and wife who question him daily. I hope he finds love and acceptance and that there are people who need and want him by the end of this drama. I also want to see what happens to the villain who now believes the plastic is Hwata's apprentice. Also, has General Choi and the other doctor guy fallen for the plastic surgeon? Does the queen have a thing for General Choi or is she really worried that if Choi dies the king will not have anyone by his side? And I am so ready for the fir...

DIY bracelet

So my sis sent me to the basement storage and I happened to set my eyes on a length of telephone wire. I took it as a sign I should DIY!

Bracelet DIY

It was totes on whim. It's nice not having to go to the supply store. Grab some chunky chain, a rope and get wiggy with it.

Fallen

Heyyy....         I feel so sour..., ill at ease..., sad, full of wanting but no means of getting.   I leave my house to go to a friends because its better there, more friendly. family is friendlier happier, smiling-ier. but its so sad when i'm there because I know that my house will still be messed up when I get back home and I added to the mess by leaving. So, I came back home and I want to make things better but I don't know how. I don't want o become a door mat but then again I don't want to be sloth or even worse a burden.         Its times like this that I truly miss and my childhood and innocence and naivete and especially the ignorance. I would be more worried about the doll I wanted to get as a gift not how I was going to pay for my education. I would feel guilty for the much simpler and physical, like stealing meat from a pot, or breaking one   ten too many dishes and then throwing them into ne...

Fish in the sea

There are plenty of fish in the sea. But no matter how many fish you catch, the one that got away will always seem more desirable. That is until someone else catches it, has it for dinner and gets sick because that fish was loaded with mercury. I thought of this after watching Ondine this morning. Yours creatively, TYB

The let down

I grew a spine and regenerated some guts. I just got rejected by soccer hunk. lol it's not as painful as I expected. Guess its 'cuase I was just misunderstanding a situation and I nipped it in the bud earlier rather than two years later. One small step for awkward girls everywhere and a big step up for me, TYB. It's good to be free. Now I can move freely and not have a bazillion thoughts going on in my head about the nonexistent. Why wasn't I like this during secondary school. Disappointed yet unencumbered-ly yours, TYB

Painting my friends room means.....

        Painting my friends room means my bucket list is one item shorter! I helped my friend (Beauty Mogul) paint her room. It was fun and I was driven.         I got home... and then I had a bubble pop pop pop.... I need to be a better relative before I try to be a great friend. ponderingly and guiltily yours,                                    TYB

pool side

        I went to the pool today to meet up with a close friend who I haven't laid eyes on since 2011! It was fun plus I guzzled up a lot of chlorinated water while she tried to teach me how to float let alone swim.         The friend who's email was used to scam me mass emailed a letter telling everyone the previous letter was a scam.         I found a lost phone and tried to get it back to the owner. but because it wasn't first on my list of priorities, I got and earful of crapitude from the person I called from the lost phone. I had to use my phone to call one of the contacts from the phone because it was a prepaid phone. then the lady I called (wifey emily) started blowing up my phone saying I better return the phone and how she doesn't want to involve the cops and how the owner really needs that phone. I replied saying if I was really planning on ste...

I got scammed today

So I hot this letter from a friends email address today: Hi, I'm writing this with tears in my eyes,my family and I came down here to London, United Kingdom for a short vacation. unfortunately,we were mugged at the park of the hotel where we stayed,all cash and credit card were stolen off us but luckily for us we still have our passports with us. We've been to the Embassy and the Police here but they're not helping issues at all and our flight leaves in few hours from now but we're having problems settling the hotel bills and the hotel manager won't let us leave until we settle the bills. Well I really need your financial assistance..Please, let me know if you can help us out? Am freaked out at the moment!! [my friends name] I imagined myself in such a situation and emailed that I could send $100. Then the scammer emailed me the following: Glad you replied back to my email..I have nothing left on me and I'm grateful to God that i still have my life a...

The Olympics

I just want to say all these athletes have an incredible amount of strength and power in their muscles. As they compete for the gold I can't help but find them beautiful. I find myself cheering for everyone, ( sorry America, I guess I'm not a true patriot). Especially for the female gymnasts from Russia. I feel like I could feel her hurt. But Gabby Douglas was amazing! I don't mean to go back to the race thing again but I'm very glad to see a black person participating in a sport that requires agility, flexibility and grace. Most of the individual's that publicly participate in such sports are usually petite and have thinner profiles. Phelps wins his second-to-last Olympic competition ever! He says this is his last time as an Olympic competitor.

Step up 3d

Watched it with the girlfriends! It was fun! The characters are dynamic although there are some that are static. Around the climax there's a character who you will absolutely despise. I still did not forgive him at the end even though many in the movie did forgive him.

Family in Korean

I talked to my yeo dongsaeng today. She's fun. My male dongsaengs are computer nerds. My noonas are completely in googoo gaga mode. Talking to them makes me feel like I'm missing something in my life. My eomma isn't so pleasant to be around. We aren't on good terms but I'm working on it. My halmeoni is a bit blank. She stares off into space sometimes. It's even weirder when she stares at me continuously. But that's family. The below picture is of my blood dongsaeng sleeping in the fetal position. He's cute when he's not being annoying. I want to turn him into a ladies man. Lol! But first, I want him to take the SAT!

Waiting to bloom

I'm like a flower in the Sahara Hard in harsh conditions I can't be soft when conditions are so hard The winds would break me I keep to myself in dry conditions I can't open up when conditions are so arid The sun would evaporate me Not to speak of the thirsty animals that lurk about looking for any source of water They would suck me dry and use me to salve their blisters But I am hard and tightly closed They won't suspect that I hold water They won't take advantage of me I'm not saying I prefer to be hard and closed If spring where to visit the Sahara, I would bloom soft open flowers and allow myself to away with the gentle winds while I absorbed the suns adoring rays of light I am waiting for the spring

Overheated laptop

Hi, you I feel, I think, I consider, I love, I hate, I hurt, I want comfort. But all of that stays on the inside. The doorway to the outside only allows for little to escape to the outside. I feel like a laptop that is running with obstructed air vents. I overheat but still no way for me to release the heat. My mouth seems so heavy. It's hard to to ask the other objects around me if they can help me. I don't want them to be moved from from their place of comfort. I don't want to be a burden. I don't want to be judged for having over heated in the first place. It's hard for the heat get out but it's do easy for it to come in. I know I'm burning up. Soon I'll combust. I'll be ashes. So I'm trying to seal the heat away and I have. I built up an incredibly thick layer of ice around my hard drive. I'm cold to the touch. The objects around me that have been around me since I got manufactured and shipped to this room get frost bitten. But then new ...

a Series of fortunate events

I cant  go into story mode. I'm just going to give it to you straight. So on Thursday I went by my university to enroll onto a tuition payment plan, and then it as it turns out I didn't have to! The government had me completely covered. No cent of  mine or my family's is going toward my tuition this year. Of course there's still the issue of book but i'm not gonna sweat it. Then later on that I went to my friends's house for the first time and hung out with them. together we made dumplings which were not so tasty at the beginning but got there eventually. On Saturday, I went to Agape Ministries headquarters in Elkridge, Maryland and worked on an art install. It was pretty cool, sadly I have not a picture to show you. I do not know why it did not occur to me to take a picture! But the whole day was so nice(overall)! I tried the Magnum vanilla ice cream which was nothing short of  scintillating. Sunday started off not so hot. When I told my...

The village of sickle cell

Hi, I am really down trodden right now. Every time I come home from Mommy Pam and enter my room, I feel like a big mosquito is on my back sucking all my blood away. Sometimes I just close the door and walk away and forget that it looks that way. I've been doing that for quite a while. And it seems to work but deep down I know the mosquito is still sucking my blood. And soon the mosquito will drain me and then I'll clean up all the puddles and dirty bodies of water that attract and breed the mosquitoes. But then, my fellow in habitants won't watch their habits and they'll leave containers about and rain will fall and they won't think to use the water right away or get rid of the standing water. The will leave it and leave it and walk by it everyday. Even though I have instructed them and asked them to please not leave water standing in the open for more than a day because the mosquitoes will use it as their breeding ground. I have shown them by example what a mosqui...
