Dear Coke Talk: On our extinction. →
dearcoketalk:
Do you look forward to the extinction of humankind? I sure do, I feel like the most beautiful thing that humans could achieve would be to finally die off and let the good earth try to heal itself. When I say this to close family members they never agree and sometimes are angry at me, calling me…
Titanic:
I am watching it for a second time when I should be doing homework. However, I am, at least, doing my homework in my head. I’ve even made notes on my mirror. :D I do, however, plan on being at the library for a while tomorrow - before or after I visit Park Ave in Winter Park. Good Day, everyone. :D
Redux Update:
I’ve been getting a lot of insight from my readers. Thank you so much! All right, that’s all! :D
Truths for Mature Humans:
Truths for Mature Humans
1. I think part of a best friend’s job should be to immediately clear your
computer history if you die.
2. Nothing stinks more than that moment during an argument when you realize
you’re wrong.
3. I totally take back all those times I didn’t want to nap when I was younger.
4. There is great need for a sarcasm font.
5. How in the world are...
Dear Coke Talk: On your weight. →
dearcoketalk:
Are you judgmental of overweight women? Do you think heavier girls can be just as sexy and desirable as our skinny counterparts?
Overweight. Underweight. The terms are judgmental in and of themselves. They imply a standard. That’s fine if the standard is based on health and well being, but…
Austin's Coffee:
This place hasn’t changed. It still smells funny.
Reminder:
I need to go to Barnes and Noble for a magazine of my choice, which I’ve already chosen. Maybe I’ll do the lazy thing and swing by Boarders after work tomorrow - if the mall isnt too busy. You all know how much I love people who I can’t understand. :D
The Dark Knight:
Even though this movie is forever long, I cannot help but love it. :D Maybe I will have a movie knight tonight, lol.
Saturday Food:
I am starving! I think food is in need. I will also be downloading the next Harry Potter book. I need to make sure that I stay ahead on these downloads.
Playing Poker:
So here I am, playing poker, and I realize that this game has lost all of its little appeal. I don’t have the same amazing need to play it anymore like I used to. Besides, no one can play poker right in the online world. I am thinking a movie wouldnt be too bad right about now,
Rhetorical Situation:
In my magazine writing class, I am having to do a rhetorical situation (blah blah) of a magazine of my own choice. Of course I chose Entertainment Weekly for my semester long project, but the class I took last semester, Writing for the Technical Professional, is helping me work on this project because I have all my notes from Dr. Coffae’s class.
I am printing them all up now to refresh...
Huge Bullshit:
“Because of the unfortunate cheating scandal in a business class last term, professors in our department have been advised to allow students to see the question only once, answer it and then move on to the next question. You will not be able to go back. So, make sure that you properly record your answer before you move on.”
WTF is this shit?!?! If I knew this then I wouldn’t...
What Motivates You:
I am creating a, “What Motivates You,” chart for Redux that will help me shape the query letter that Dr. Coffae is helping me with. I’m so excited!
On Having a Heart:
I cannot believe how much I do have a heart. I’m not always that cold-heart asshole. Pity is not something I give, but I do give sympathy.
This Old Dude:
I’m in the library on the 3rd floor with on of my friends, Dennis, studying together (separate subjects). Well, as I am trying to do homework, this OLD DUDE keeps coughing as he watches a DVD on one of the TV’s that run along the wall to my right. Um, hint OLD DUDE… STOP YOUR SMOKING! And I think now Dennis is scared to cough. lol. Dennis, don’t be afraid to cough, just...
Query Letter:
Around five o’clock today, I will be having another meeting with my ex-professor as we go over my query letter. Off to class. :D

Work Tonight:
We have a box set to complete tonight. I can pretty much tell you that I will be listening to my iPod the entire time. Leila said I could, so I will be doing that. Orianna will be there tonight and I really don’t feel like listening to her comments about anything. Here is to an entire four hours of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban… or something like that. :D
This Week:
This week is the first week since I have been at Lucky Brand that I have 28 scheduled hours. I’ve worked more before, but I wasn’t scheduled all those days - just picked up shifts. It’s the second week of school, too. Luckily I don’t have my Visual Communication’s class this week cos the professor is out of town on business, so my online class will be worked on that...

Ethics of Journalism:
This class is going to kill me for one reason: it’s too damn early in the morning for a morning class! I swear, why couldn’t this class be at, I don’t know, let’s say, 12:30 - 1:45 in the afternoon. I would probably do much much better in this class if it was later, just saying. :D Ok. Imma wait for class to start while listening to Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets.
Redux Exert:
I gathered energy and pushed it against the pile. The debris shot toward the north-facing wall like a bullet then I swooped energy across the ground and up from the center where the pile had sat. I felt the energy grab a hold of something and suspended it in the air.
Redux Exert
Before I could look back down, there was already a wet towel in my hand. I ran it gently across Sophia’s face. Courtney took a different approach and threw a glass of water on her face.
Redux Exert:
The transition from light to dark was blinding. I caught the scent of fresh film, new leather, polyester, and new machinery before I saw it all. Rows of different camera – digital, classic film, classic-feel digital, camera with telescope lenses – were next to a thousand kinds of carrying cases. Film boxes lined the walls.
Redux Exert:
I wasn’t expecting what happened next. None of us were. It couldn’t even be expected. There was nothing I did differently than just reach out to catch the phone. Loud gasps filled the air. At the same time, a bright green light was emitted from my hand as my fingers clenched around the phone. The light seemed to be just as bright at the fire in front of me.
Harry Potter:
Damn. I am on chapter 6 of book two!
Nicki Minaj is quickly becoming and idol!
Redux Preview, again:
Reoccurrence
As soon as I heard the ear-piercing sound of the alarm on my phone go off, my eyes snapped open. I had specifically chosen the most annoying ringtone the phone had to offer to wake me up. Each morning I regretted it, too. I slammed my hand down on my mattress where I had set it last night. Not being able to find it, I ran my hand along the cool surface of my red satin sheets. As the...
At a Moment Notice:
I will be having a very good talk to you my boss tomorrow. I will not put myself in another position that will stress me out. I won’t. Damn it. I won’t.
I’ve been there and done that. Fuck it.
Can I just say:
I am so proud of myself, even if this doesn’t work out. I’ve created something so wonderful that it makes my soul shine brighter than five Suns.
Not to Mention:
I follow this person on Tumblr who posts a ton and ton of hot pictures of hot guys and every time i pull up my Tumblr, guess what pops up?!? Naked, hot, mouth-watering guys! Basically this is just a filler post so when I do open up Tumblr, I see all the BS I have to say!
Panera Bread:
I’m sitting at Panera Bread, wanting to download the next audio book in the Harry Potter series, and the downloading site that I normally used is blocked. Why, oh, why did I not just download all of them when I was home?!? You know what?! I’ll just go on campus and use Brighthouse to download all my much-needed stuff. Ok. Off to work on Redux some more. I have some anxious readers who...

Redux Thought:
I’m debating whether or not I should allow my FB friends to read the first page of Redux. What do you guys think? Should I? Would YOU want to read it?
Redux Update:
This time around I will be focusing on facial expression and visuals. Once that is finished, I should be too. [ I need to work on the beginning, too, so add that to my list ]

Redux Exert: she just died.
It was fairly quite. The blasts didn’t even disturb the morning air. The waves crashed peaceful along the shoreline. A couple of seagulls in the air called to their friends on the ground. And then there was our breathing. It was steady and relaxed.
Redux Exert
She had to be the one to pull the plug on her best friend’s life now. She was the one with the cord in her hand to release us from this limbo. I couldn’t imagine how she felt in this moment. A sob touched my ears and my heart cracked.
The pulling sensation returned and I felt the touch of my two best friends fade from my consciousness.
Cruel Intentions
It has been too long. damn, boy, you’re fine.
Roman's Revenge
My favorite line of the entire song is…
“I’m a bad bitch; I’m a cunt”
because it pretty much sums up my personality and it uses the word “cunt,” which you all know is my favorite word. I make it look so sexy.
CVI Cafe
Some plugs never change. I’m finally off work, and I’m thinking about taking a cat nap before I start on Redux again. Why not stay up all night?!? I’ll post later.
Florida Mall
It is completely dead in here right now - which I like. I always seem to get here extremely early, though. And by early I do mean 30 minutes. Here is to hoping that 4 o’clock comes sooner than later.
