Pink and White Cookies with Sprinkles <3

What mood swing weather we have here in the lovely Bay Area!! Either you're on like Katy Perry status with Hot&Cold or like the global warming and end of existence is approaching hahaha! Srsly whats going on in the world? Weather. Influenza. Everyone's broke. I don't have medical insurance. haha yeahhh

Oh my gosh! Last post I forgot to mention some terrible news. Pink Eye. So that Tuesday that I went to my Poli Sci class I was feeling a bit weird.. I discovered I had a weird rash on my arms, legs and feet.. as if I went frolicking in some werid itchy bushes here in the headlands. Which I never have.. I've only jumped into piles of ice plant.. like five years ago but anyway... then like during class my eye kept burning and crying and I was like what the fringle's going on with my eye?! So that night I had to drive home partially blind with a blurred eye. So when I got home i examined my situation and looked up my symptoms & stuff on medlineplus and it said I had Pinkeye. Oh.. lovely! So then my mom was like oh here let me give you some eye drops they'll really help! Goodness Gracious I think my eyes flew down to hell and came back! Those drop were definitely killing some major bacteria and whatever as it burned my eyes like crazy! Unfortunately pink eye doesn't just like disappear so of course I had to take it on down to LA. oh and here's me disguising my pink eye with my dad's vintage Ray Bans that gimme a unibrow hahahaha!  

More on LA in a bit but anyway its been three weeks now... and guess what I woke up with this morning? Pink eye. Not just a reprise but for the Sixth Time!!! I dont think its normal to have the stupid infection, have it heal, you clean everything to make sure its all sanitary and germ free and then it decides to come back over and over and over again! I'm sick of it! And as I mentioned before, I dont have health insurance!! So if I go blind or crazy no one will help me. So enough of my disgusting infected and highly contagious story...

My brother and I truly had a wonderful four days in LA visiting the familia for my cousin Alley's Quince. Everything was just great great great. Except the uglymuffin pic of me and my bro up there with our gorgeous cuzzo. but the rest was Awesomeness complete. The flight on Virgin America to and from was great. Getting reunited with my cousins and aunt after like three years no see = great. Running around getting things like hair, makeup, decorations, flowers etc set up for Alley's Quince = great. Party time at the Reef down in Long Beach by the Queen Mary = great. Being super tired from dancing and running around in heels = great. Spending the rest of our days hanging out & being randomly hilarious = great. Going to Downtown Disney and spending a long time at Build A Bear making Hello Kittys = great. Going to the movies together and then somehow I ended up watching the Hannah Montana Movie.. [woah?!] = still great haha. So overall you get the point we had an amazing time and we're on definite promise mode to go back more often to visit! Oh and here's the Hello Kitty I made at Build-a-Bear. 


So.. back to my obsession.. I finally got to the part in Breaking Dawn I had been waiting for like forever and a half!! It was like 3am the other night and finally Bella became a Vampire. Whoo hoo!! haha So yeah the book has got me crazyyy I've taken my time reading it. I dont wanna read it all at once because then what will I do? [Self Destruct] Yeah.. 

Anyway my best friend Esp and I are taking another road trip at the end of the month so that we can have our fun and then be work slaves for the rest of the summertime! Oh and of course to celebrate her graduation from CAL haha So... where do you think we're going?! drumroll... Washington!! We're going to visit Cape Dissappointment!!!! hahaha well yes we intend on stopping by that lighthouse but our real destination is Forks! tee hee! Ranger Ron our dorm manager who's from WA says its a pretty neat small town.. well he probably hasn't been there recently with all the Twilight stuffles.. So yeahhh I just saw on the Forks Chamber of Commerce site that theres a Bed & Breakfast called the Cullen House which I intend to stay at.. [I hope!] and many other funky Twi-fan places. Oh yeah and of course LaPush and its LaPushyness and wolves.. sweet. So anywayyyy I'll stop my blabbers about that before theres a change of plan and something goes terribly wrong and we cant go anymore. [eeek!] Oh and also we def. have a trip in mind for Sequoia National Park to visit our highly missed Georgia.

OMG So I was at Safeway yesterday and like I passed by this display thingy right and I saw some purple and pink stripes... woah hold! turn around and what do i see?!! Mother's Cookies! They're back in business... well sorta. Kellogg bought over the trademarks and recipes and is carrying on the tradition. yay! I was all excited and stuffs but then I was like wait... I went out hunting for these cookies and bought a buhjillion of them to stock up for the rest of my life because they were to be no more and then now theyre like an annoying ex who comes back into your life?!! Well the cookies arent annoying or anything so thats good but still! Esp and I were on like Cookie Craze! so yeahh Well... at least I cant rely on Kellogg to not disappear.. and I'll just eat my cookies now.. instead of preserving them for eternity! haha

Oh and before I go out and do what I'm really supposed to be doing right now.. [work..] I just have to confess that I've now become addictingly attatched to fringlin' Twitter! so yeahhh tweet me... @mjmuffinlover ... yeahh some one already claimed 'mjmuffin' and they're like a dead profile so yeahhh and oh! I'm following this superlicious blog that just makes all of my days hilariously amazing. Lauren's Bite. She's srsly the best in the existence of awesomespice!

love, mj

Cool Mint Chocolate Clif Bar

I finally finished Eclipse! It was great great.. but not as great as Breaking Dawn is going! I realized that hella people around me are getting into the Twilight Saga.. mwahaha! Like even yesterday I was walking to my Poli Sci class and these two professors walked past me and the girl one had New Moon in her hands and she was discussing it with the guy prof. It was kinda funny.. and I just half smiled and walked by with my Breaking Dawn lol. Anyway enough about my obsession now.. 

So tomorrow my brother and I are going down to LA to see my cousin for her Quince. She was at mine five years ago so now its our turn to pay her a visit. I'm pretty excited about it! I got a little black dress today to wear for the party. Oh and it'll be my first time flying Virgin America.. we'll see if its really as cool as they advertise haha. 

At work.. my friend Michael Super- yes thats his super cool real last name haha- is the new Point Bonita Intern so I get to chill with him at work two days week. But the crazy boy doesn't want to stay at the dorms and he's like barely spending his first night there today but I'm not there so oh well see you next week michael!! 

Omg the weather has been hella crazy these days. Total heat wave! Friday was beautiful and then all weekend that heat was WOW and even on Monday my car steering wheel would burn my hands! Only until today was San Francisco going back to normal and silly me didn't take a jacket.. but I was relieved once I stepped out of the carpool person's car to the warm summer Fairfield air. On the news the people were saying we're going through La Nina.. which is unevitably followed by El Nino.. great. Stupid Kids..

On Sunday I went to City College's performance of How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying and even though I was heatfully late and totally didn't  have to pay entrance it was still amazing. I feel bad that I ever had low expectations. Now I have to write a paper on it.. boo! 

What else what else... oh about the snack of the day.. Cool Mint Chocolate Clif Bar! I was at the little food truck thingy at school during my break of Musical Awareness class and I had to make a relatively healthy snack.. so after like five minutes of staring at all the choices I got the clif bar and a banana which was $2.25 the exact amount of quarters I had in my pocket haha! so yeah it was really good. I guess. 

Oh! I got my new camera battery in the mail today! My previous one had lived out its totalness of rechargeable lives. So now my digital camera and I will be joyfully reunited for more thousands and thousands of picture taking that I missed so much. 

Anyway I'd better get some dinner and start packing for LA.. I'll post pics of the party if I can!

Chocolate Cappuccino Cheesecake?..

Well I sure hope everyone in the entire world had a lovely Easter. 
I sure did. Simple and Sweet. ish.. Anyway the full seven hours I spent at Church all night long went by so fast and I didn't even nod my head or blink a sleepy eye. I was wide awake and actually listening and stuff.. interestingly I haven't even been to church in a long while.. most people were like woah you're back where've you been all this time?! anyway.. afterward around like 8am we went to Cafe Cozzolino for dinner- no not brekkie.. dinner- and I had the meat platter.. it was alright I mostly had bread and butter but I really liked the dessert which was a Chocolate Cappuccino Cheesecake slice thingy. So finally I got home around 11am and slept thru all of Easter Sunday and woke up at like 6pm haha what a day.. 

There is no possible way to excuse my huge gap of blog time... It really is SAD that I log on to Blogger like everyday only to check up on stuff and the blogs i follow and NOT post anythingthe entireness of 2009 and half of December!!! So really I am sorry- to of course whoever actually reads this literary crap haha!- for not keeping you up to date with me in this stalkerish blog. 

So on that note I belatedly wish you..
  • Merry Christmas. 
  • Happy New Year. 
  • Happy Chinese New Year. 
  • Happy Martin Luther King Jr Day. 
  • Happy Valentines Day. 
  • Happy Presidents Day. 
  • Happy Vernal Equinox. 
  • Happy St. Patricks Day. 
  • Happy Cesar Chavez Day. 
  • Happy April Fools Day. and finally..... 
  • Happy Easter. Phew!
Well then.. I promise from now on to be faithful to thee blog. haha! Okay so I cant catch you up with like everything thats happened but here's a small glimpse of how I go about life these crazy days... 

First off.. I've gained like at least twenty pounds. and no it's not that I eat loads of sugary sweets and stuff.. as inspired for this blog.. which I actually don't! I love all of that but no I don't base my whole life diet on that. All I ever eat is like special k, bagels, pasta, soy milk, soy ice cream, pupusas.. i dont know!? Anyway.. back to catching up.. I was a college drop out for a few months but now I'm lazily back in school but this time at City College of SF. Classes are going alrightish I guess but my schedule is insane so I've got to readjust my school mode in the fall and set things straight. 

Um.. I'm still working in the Marin Headlands as a Ranger but right now its just part time for two days until the summer comes along then I'll be full time again. I'm still driving Esperanza crazy with my weirdness but this time our friendship has become a trio as we've merged with our beloved Georgia and we make the self proclaimed Ranger Sistas haha sadly though.. Georgia will be leaving us in two weeks to go back to Sequoia NP to ranger on there. But its a perfect excuse for a small trip and to visit her there. 

Oh! Remember back in November when I bought those two scandalous things at Costco?.. my oh my.. Twilight the book and HSM3 the dvd. Well the movie I had already seen in theaters but the book.. in March I finally picked it up and began to read it. I don't know why I didn't begin to read it immediately.. it was like in a corner of my room like I was scared to open it haha but anyway the Twilight Dvd came out March twenty something and I was like wow I'd better read the real thing than jump to the famous movie and all ruining the book so yeah I managed to finish the book like five days before buying the dvd the day it came out. 

Let me just say.. Twilight has taken over my life. 

Just like millions of people all over the world have fallen in love with Edward and Bella and everything else involved, so have I. Oh and its another excuse for people to hate me. They think they're so cool they don't follow trends or whatever but if millions of people love Twilight it has to be good right? Of course Twilight is amazing. While I was reading it, I was totally captured by everything.. its weird like I would go to sleep at like 2 or 3 am reading it. I've tried that with Harry Potter the 6th and like I can never get past the 5th chapter.. but anyway.. as soon as i finished Twilight I was like omg! I have to see the movie and buy the next book.. now!! haha  anyway love love love the movie. yeah it was not the same as the book.. they never are.. but still. oh and Robert Pattinson.. i've loved since Harry Potter so whatever. I seriously hella cried when Cedric died in book and film lol. 

Now as another crazy fanatic I have to wait until November to see New Moon which I read in four days and I'm a slow reader!!!! Right now I'm almost done with the third book of the saga, Eclipse which is crazy... I'm scared for Breaking Dawn now because there's so many damn spoilers online and everywhere its driving me insane. OMG I told you it's taken over my life!! and this post too!! 

Well then.. I'm out of stuff to say.. so.. I'll continue reading Eclipse and find something to do today!!... besides wait for my Italian class tonight 6:00-9:00pm.. sigh.. so Ciao Ciao!
