halloween

halloween is one of the coolest days. everyone gets dressed up. this weekend was the halloween dance at school and everyone was dressed up, seeing people dressed as teletubbies, flight attendants and even the entire Duke Lacrosse team was pretty exciting. when ever halloween comes around I think of when I was littler and went trick or treating with all my friends from around our neighborhood. When we were all done we would put our candy in little piles, sorting them and trading the ones that we didn't like with others who did like them. I can't wait till someday I will be the one taking my kids trick or treating just like my parents did to me

tattoo

the star has a black outline, each point is cut in half and is a different color one half of the point of the star is lime green
while the other is turquoise. it is called a nautical star and it represents who i am just by the shape and the colors of the tattoo. getting it didn't hurt as much as i expected, I was very excited when I got it done because I was the one who designed it.

waffles vs. pancakes

thinking of breakfast we usually think of pancakes or waffles. waffles piled high with whip cream and syrup all over. that is the way i like it. pancakes are also good but they are totally different from each other. waffles are more sweet and for someone who has a sweet tooth but pancakes are more of a breakfast food that you can mix together with eggs, bacon, and home fries.
these to breakfast foods are very different from each other, but they are still under the same category of foods.

Guilty pleasure

everyone has a guilty pleasure. mine is eating chocolate. i can't resist chocolate espacially when
I am having a bad day eating chocolate just makes me feel better. chocolate is also good for you
it is supposed to help clear your skin but it is also a girls best friend. After a break up just sitting down
watching a movie and eating an entire bag of chocolate kisses. I would never give up eating chocolate
it is just irresitable to me

Political stuff

well i have never really been interested in all the political stuff going on around me. I am
not able to vote since li wasn't born in the US. I don't really mind not being able to vote
because it doesn't really seem like that I miss out on anything. All I care about in this upcoming
presidential election that it is someone better than Bush, who becomes presiden. I have heard a lot about Bush from my parents
and have grown to dislike since he entered office. He has made very many wrong decisions for this Country.

christmas oranges

the moment in this flavious stans life is the ending of the hardship of communist
it is around christmas time and he wants to suprise his family with oranges because
they have never seen them before since they are so rare in Romania at the time of Communism
Flavious wanted to make his family proud by getting the oranges and show them what he would do to
support his brothers and family and still show them that they are all happy. getting the oranges
suprised everyone so much that they didn't want to touch the oranges at all they all looked at
them like glass statues that if you touched them that they would break and disappear forever.

Green and Blue

When a visitor steps into my room they are completely overwhelmed. all the colors that you see are those of a Caribbean beach
my bed sheets as turquoise, there are green and blue gems on the wall and there are posters Caribbean beaches. The poster of James Dean with his famous quote "Dream as if you'll live forever, Live as if you'll die today" attracts everyones attention immediatly. Also the giant white orchid that stands next to my bed makes it feel very contemporary and unique. These are my favorite colors and everyone can tell and know that I am a very colorful and unique person.

Favorite Food

My favorite food for the longest time has been pasta with tomato sauce. The creamy goodness of the marinara sauce kicks up the pasta to make the experience of eating even better. The pasta at the cafeteria is good, but not as great as the dish that my mom makes me when i get home from college on the weekends. the sauce is made from scratch and the past is boiled to perfection. The smell from the sauce wafts up to my room on the second floor and it wakes me up even when I am sound asleep. The sauce is perfectly seasoned and tastes amazing.The pasta is always in my favorite shape as well, the bow tie pasta is one of my favorties and we always have it at my house. My mom is like my personal chef, since she graduated culinary school 4 years ago.
