The Unwritten Rules To Hanging out with a Pregnant Lady

So, just plain and simple, stay away from pregnant women! Just kidding. Anyways, this all started the day when my brother bought his wife a pregnancy test. There we were, nervous, speechless, we didn't know what was to come. Suddenly, BOOM, the door slams open. With only one bright light, lighting up the pregnancy test as my sister in law held it up. Meanwhile, you could here loud angelic voices, " HALLELUJAH." No, i'm just kidding, hahaha. Seriously though, when we found out she was pregnant we were all very happy. The baby will be my first niece/ nephew and my parents first grandchild. So, this was really exiting news. 

Now, lets get down to business.

Rule# 1: Don't be mean to her. The woman's hormones are going crazy right now, so a little comment will send her into tears.

Rule# 2: Be ready to be smelling throw up in the air. Any little food can and may upset her stomach, so, buy her many buckets.

Rule# 3: Talk to her about the baby. Talk to her about what gender she might want it to be, the future baby shower, or any names she is thinking off. This always gets pregnant women happy.

Rule# 4: Finally and most importantly, let her know you care about the baby. Ask her many questions and talk to her about the baby and you hanging out when he/she is a little older.

Hopefully this will help me and many of you first time aunts or uncles.

Us


Us
Little waves push at my ankles as I hold your hand.
I treasure these walks where water meets land.

Even though we’ve had our troubles,
I have no problem sifting through the rubble,
And piecing the pieces together,
So I can say us forever.

Music


Whether I am doing homework
Or waiting for someone,
I am listening to music.
From classical music, to Rage against the Machine
It makes me happy,
If you take it away,
Who knows what will happen.
I always have a song stuck in my head,
Almost every day,
I find new songs
But rare does it happen when I fall in love with a song
The song either reminds me of something,
Or it fits the situation that I am in
Please let me listen to songs that keep me amused,
Or your face will end up bruised.

Unwritten Rules of Being A Twin

Being a twin is awesome and all, but that all stops when a person comes up to you and asks you a bizarre question. So, here are my rules of asking a question to a twin.

1.      Do not ask if we are twins, a little sarcasm will come your way if you do.
2.      Please do not ask if we have twin telepathy. If you don’t have telepathy, then we probably won’t have telepathy.
3.      Do not ask if we have a secret language.  Just because we don’t have telepathy, doesn’t mean we will have a secret language.
4.      Do not ask who is smarter and who is dumber.
5.      Do not come up to me, pinch or punch me, go to my sister and ask her, “Did you feel that?”
6.      Do not ask me or my sister if we have ever switched classes for a day? My response would be, “No. It would take too much time. I would have to tell her where I sit and which class to go to. And other people would notice and ruin it.”

So, those are my pet peeves when someone asks a question to me and my sister. 

Star Wok


Star Wok is located in a grocery strip mall in Claremont. I have only gone there twice, but I love it! Out of the two times that I have gone there I had gotten the vegetable egg roll with a bowl of chow mein, and just a bowl of fried rice. 
They have the same people there most of the time. And it does not taste like Panda Express at all. The portion sizes are HUGE. They fill your bowl or your box to the very top. It’s not very busy, so only a few people walk in if your there. 
It’s greasy, but I still love it. On a star rating I would give it a 4. The portion sizes are HUGE, the prices are reasonable, and I love the food.

When I need you, you are there
 To help me with my work.
Your wooden sides as soft as silk,
The glitter at the top, so sparkly like the ocean at sunrise.
But, when I jab you in the evil beaver-like machine, I cry
For you are getting smaller, and it's not a lie.
Everyday, I shove you in while you make a ferocious noise.
I am sad; I might have to replace you.
But before you go, here it is, an ode for you.

Un-written Rules!


There are many rules on this earth. Don’t cheat on a test, no cell phones, no cussing at your parent, no talking back to teachers, your clothes have to fit right, n tattoos/piercings ect. But there are unwritten rules also. There’s un-written rules for a lot of things! I think one of the most important are…

Un-written rules of being a teenage girl!
1.      Never like the same person as your bestfriend(or at least don’t tell them) it can get ugly…
2.      Keep your secrets to yourself!!!!!! I don’t know how more to express this! Just know that some of your “friends” aren’t really your friends..
3.      Be yourself around the guy you like…they’ll most likely like you more.
4.      If you like a guy, don’t tell him right away…they get weirded out.

And here are just some….

Un-written rules for teenagers!
1.      Guys… if its cold, give her your sweater..even if its just a friend. It’ll show her you care.
2.      If someone has the remote and they leave to use the restroom or something….TAKE THE REMOTE c:
3.      If you don’t someone, don’t tell everybody! That’s how rumors start and a fight is bound to happen.
4.      If your mom/dad isn’t acting the same or they seem kind of upset…DO NOT ASK FOR SOMETHING!!!!! It’s a baaaadddd idea..
5.      If your boyfriend/girlfriend is in a bad mood or upset….ask what’s wrong. It helps.

These aren’t the best un-written rules but they are bound to help someone at some given 

Ode To Music

So much depends upon
A couple lyrics a day
They make you happy
They make you sad
               

 
                     The songs save the lives of many
                     So many tears shed
                     So many feelings hurt
                     I can feel the pain in my head


                         
                                      The tears run down like razor blades
                                      They hit my shirt like bullets
                                      As though a knife had been puncturing my skin
                                      You can feel the vibe with in



                                                   As the night ends,my eyes begin to close
                                        And as my dreams shatter my heart begins to ache
                                                  But thanks to my music
                                                   Good things are my fatte

Unwritten Rules to getting Pie

Pie by Steve Snodgrass

Do you enjoy a nice hot piece of pie every now and then. I know I do. Here are a few rules to geting pie some are good and some are bad, so beware. (Involves alot of running)

  1. If there is pie on the table and no one looks like they are claiming it then take it and run.
  2. If your parents tells you not to eat pie, wait for them to leave the room and grab it and run. And if they ask you if you were the one who took it say no and stash your plate somewhere oh, and wipe your face.
  3. If your brother or sister is making fun of you smack them, then take the pie and run. If your parents ask you if you did it say no and give them your most angelic look.
  4. If someone at school is eating pie wait for them to look away then take it and run. If they run after you stop running and smash the pie in there face. ( That's my favorite one.
  5. If you are at a pie eating contest do the contest then take an extra piece of pie with you
  6. If someone looks like they are going to take your pie, take a spoonful of it and flick it at them, then as you know run.
  7. Eat your pie in privacy unless you want to share it with everybody
I hope these help you with your pie needs. Thanks for reading.

Night Song

Night Song

Pasadena, Pasadena
My dear old Pasadena
My hometown
My Life

Life of shots
Fired
and gangs
yet I see past that

Stars in the skies
like fireflies
stuck up  there
so high

The moon
shining bright
the trees
sleeping

Everything
Everywhere
is like a song
that everyone hears

the guns
the sirens
the howl
of the mountain lion

It's the song
the song
of
 Pasadena

My Goal






For some time now I have been having the dream to grow out my hair and donate it. With a couple of steps I hope my dream comes true.

The first thing I will do is take care of my hair. I will use no heat on my hair for the next few years. The reason for this is because i dont want my hair all damaged for the person who will have it.

The second thing I will do is use good natural hair strengtheners. I want my hair to be strong and not so fragile, so that the wig with my hair in it will last for the person.

The last thing I will do is not cut my hair, and just let nature do its thing to let it grow. I really hope that my hair grows long so that I can donate it, with these steps I hope to accomplish my dream of donating my hair to someone who needs it.
