The public market

Hey ladies! this morning i went to the public market! I love going their are so many different kinds of people and so many different stands. Places that sell candles and incense,jewelry, vegetables, flowers, cheap snacks and beautiful clothing. I went there with two things in mind: Jewelry and Insese. I found this bizzar little stand which had incense, different kinds of soaps and candles but also tons of knives. Like a TON, there must have been at least 40 different knives as long as my for-arm. I was a little uncomfortable going in but i ended up getting a really great deal! 12 sticks of insence for one dollar, so i am now the proud owner of 11 sticks of insence (i just burned one). We also wandered into this realy cute clothing store, there was tones of cool boheman dresses and blouses none of witch fit me (or so i thought) I fond this ah-mazing dress. it is white and aqya, the top part is aqua with little wite buttons, there is a little lace before the skirt. The skirt is white with little blue flowers and i L-O-V-E it. Alas i did not buy any jewerly but we did taste genuine olive oil at the cheese store and i had my first empanada. I have been to jose and maria's empanada stop before but i usualy get just beans and rice. Tonight my mother is hosting a dinner party w/ peeps from my church who went on one of her katrina trips so tonight should be a n ah-mazing time (note my sarcasam) So Ritti, chear me up by answering my queston: If you could eat dinner with one person living or dead who would you eat with, what would you eat, what would you talk about and WHY??

Washinton part 1

I think it is time i talk about the wonder that is washington DC since everyone else has and i feel left out :...( The night that we left i didnt know what to do with myself, it is very rare that the hilight of my day is at 10:30 o'clock, so there was lots of checking and re-checking all my baggage,restlesly wasting time on the internet and being genrly squirlly (as my dear father would say who i hope doesnt read this because i would be grounded and grilled into alice-burgers) ANYWAY we drove throught the thick rain and ran into tcms which o'course was a total zoo. I got through check in and made my way into the clostraphobia inducing gym. The LAMA hung out, sat on eachother's bags and were (not shockingly) hyper and perverted. We got on our bus (#1) a half an hour later then scheduled. Ritti and i sat together near laura, moo, kat, cindy, mohini,andrew (EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!),jack, zach and strawhair. exhaustion induced chatting comence. Jack fell asleep right away so naturally Ritti drew on his face with the ever ready eyeliner. We were awoken at 2 frekin' o'clock in the morning to go to the bathroom. As we shivered in line for the bathroom Ritti informed me that in the night i had taken her blanket and when she had taken it back i threw an fit. I remember none of this but i do know i awoke with 2 blankets so.... We waited in line for the ladies tinkledinckle HA HA room but when informed that the toilets would no longer flush (ewww) we ran into the little boys room. I ured Carlotta to pee like the wind, it was uber gross but less gross than me peeing my pants. PART 2...waking up, changing in the microspic bathroom and anything else i can remember of the first full day.
Farewell happy pandas!

YUCK, some people are skinny

People can be so gross. last night i was walking my dog Stella and noticed tons of trash by the catholic school. EWW. i ended up collecting it all and throwing it out. Stella got very interested in McDonald's bag and i have "mr.d"'s phone number apparently someone wants him to fax their homework. My school counselors gave me an anorexia talk when anyone who knows me knows that i eat (a lot!) Apparently everyone in the world thinks i have food issues (my aunt gave me the bulimia talk...don't even get me started on that!) In fact i just ate a brownie and a grilled cheese. news flash:some people are naturally skinny! *gasps in shock*

rant over

Walking home....reflections on childhood

Today i walked home from school. Most of the snow has melted away and it was so beautiful. little birds were nestled in the bushes. I walked past our local catholic school and the kids were at recess. The adults paced around like prison guards,all the little boys were running around and being crazy (as boys that age should be) some girls in blue pleated skirts were hanging over the fence looking at me as i passed by. i wonder what they were they thinking. I imagine that i was a bad influence, walking down the street listing to Ben Folds as he cursed in my ears. I went to this school when i was really little and i when i saw some girls drawing in the chalky dirt reminded me of myself. ahh those were the days. making a town out of clay and dressing up as a diamond princess for Halloween. Back then the biggest problem in life was that my sister stole my Barbie's dress. As i look at these children i wonder who they are, who they will become.

nails

so every october i celebrate madness month, cas when i was like nine i cut my nails constently ansd so i decided i would not cut my nails for the entire month of october! i still keep up the tradition! it is called madness month cas it is really irritating to have the nail clippers rright next to u and not u se them when u need them!

Who are you?

so i am biking around my neighborhood minding m y own biasness when a group of like 4 or 5 guys start yelling to me "who are you?" i keep on riding but a little faster then before. they were starting to catch up so i went as fast as i could but considering i was in flip flops that was not all that fast. But these jerks catch up to me and i couldn't pretend that i dint hear them so i said "who are you?" back hoping against hope that they would leave me alone. of course the guy answers "ryan, now tell me who r u?" considering he was like 11 or 12 he dint seem like much of a threat so i said "allie" "what?" he responded, i repeated my answer and he left me alone. weird
