Okay, since we’re on the bathroom talk, I thought I would find the poopie list.

POOPIE LIST

GHOST POOPIE: The kind where you feel the Poopie come out, but there's no poopie in the toilet.

CLEAN POOPIE: The kind where you poopie it out, see it in the toilet, but there is nothing on the toilet paper.

WET POOPIE: The kind where you wipe your butt fifty times and it still feels unwiped, so you have to put some toilet paper between your butt and your underwear so you don't runie them with a stain.

SECOND WAVE POOPIE: The kind that happens when you're done poopie-ing and you've pulled your pants up to your knees, and you realize you have to poopie some more.

TURTLE POOPIE: The kind of poopie that pops out a little and goes back in a few times before it finallly comes out

POP-A-VEIN-IN-YOUR-FOREHEAD-POOPIE: The kind where you strain so much to get it out, you practically have a stroke.

LINCOLN LOG POOPIE: The kind of Poopie that is so huge you're afraid to flush without first breaking it into little pieces with the plunger.

GAS-SY POOPIE: The kind where it's so noisy, everyone within earshot is giggling!

DRINKER POOPIE: The kind of Poopie you have the morning after a long night of drinking. It's most noticeable trait is the skid marks on the bottom of the toilet.

CORN POOPIE: (Self explanatory)

GEE-I-WISH-I-COULD-POOP POOPIE: The kind where you want to Poopie, but all you do is it on the toilet and fart a few times.

SPINAL TAP POOPIE: That's the kind when it hurts so badly coming out, you swear it was leaving you sideways.

WET CHEEKS POOPIE: (The Power Dump). The kind that comes out of your butt so fast, your butt cheeks get spashed with water.

LIQUID POOPIE:The kind where yellowish-brown liquid shoots you of your butt and spashes all over the toilet bowl.

MEXICAN POOPIE: The kind that smells so bad your nose burns.

UPPER CLASS POOPIE: The kind of Poopie that doesn't smell.

THE SURPRISE POOPIE: You are not even at the toilet, because you are sure you are about to fart, but, OOPS---a Poopie!

THE DANGLING POOPIE: This Poopie refuses to drop into the toilet even though you know you are done poopie-ing. You just pray that a shake or two will cut it loose.

I remember this list back in high school, it was hilarious, I couldn’t stop laughing, my friends and cousins would make copies of this list and give it to our friends. Ah, yes the days before email. Funny thing, is that I think a lot of us laugh, because of experience. ;p

And best poopie website. www.doodie.com

DEEEE-gusting! Geez, just came back from my work’s office building restroom. You would expected being that you need a key to use the building’s restroom, it would be cleaner. Cha! Ghetto ass girls, I swear, I thought girls would be cleaner.

Someone left her present. And this is not the first time. I swear. Is it that hard to flush the toilet again, so the next person, can have clean bowl? I mean I have no problem, if you gotta do #2, cuz when you gotta go, you gotta go, but do you have to share it with everybody?

Oh, I have more stories, freakin’ ppl that throw away their sanitary napkins in the toilet and clog it up. Okay, I can understand, if it’s the first time you got your period, but I don’t remember seeing anyone in their training bras in our office building. NASTY!

Then there are the ppl, that you know just did #2, that don’t even bother washing their hands. I mean, not washing with soap, is pretty sick, as is, but I’ve seen ppl that just straight walk out, no water or soap. EWWWW.


In TheSpark.com's Pickup line test, I'm....drumroll please.

What's up frigidaire. You are 29%
pickup-able! You're cold and unapproachable, like a big glacier that's unapproachable. And cold. Unlike the Arctic tundra, few even venture to plant their flag in you. You're definitely not a Scorpio, unless you were born between October 23 and November 21. The bad news is that you'll end up miserable and alone, probably knitting doilies out of cat hair. The good news is that this is apparently what you want. Honestly, I don't even feel comfortable talking to you right now, so I'm just gonna go… yeah… wash my friend's hair.

Hmmmm...this might explain things.

Yummmmmmmmmmmay........tee hee hee

http://www.apple.com/switch/ads/djqbert.html

Amy had mentioned she saw Qbert on a recent Mac commercial. And girl agrees with me, Qbert’s a cutie. He's looking mighty tasty in the commercial. Yeah, I have something you can scratch. Push the right buttons and you'll hear some of my aural pleasures. That's right, I wonder how talented those fingers are.... =8O bad bad I know, I'm horrible Muriel.

8)...Woo hoo hoo

Hey, man, I'm single, I'm allowed to drool and dream. I need my fun. Shoot, if you had my non-existent love life, I would like to you see how well you fare. That's right I have an *ahem* creative imagination.

Hmmm...Kelly Slater's looking pretty nice too. ;p

Other news

Unity Games 2002 seemed to be pretty successful. Spent all day Friday picking up freebie stuff for the youth. Wished I had more time, cuz there were some companies I had wished I had hit up. Was completely exhausted after Saturday. The youth were so starstruck by Keiko Agena, who came to help out Ryan Suda for the Blacklava booth. Anne mention, how one of youth even screamed, when they recognized her. And when one of the youth was shaking Keiko’s hand, the youth responded by saying that she would never wash that hand. haha. Most of the youth kept running to the Blacklava booth, when I was running the spirit games/team building games. One of them even asked, do you think she’ll play with us. ;p

Anyhow the next Unity Games should even be big and better since the Dodgers want to work with us next year. Another big event down. Just the policy symposium left for year 2002.

===================
Other interesting and cool news

Juan, one of the youth I used to tutor at Century Day School, who currently is back in regular school, told one of the current Century students, to say hi to me. How sweet is that? 8) He still remembers me.

And a couple weeks ago, Suzanna, who wants to go by Katrina now, another youth that used to go to Century Day, asked Luis to give me one of her glamour shots photos. I’m usually not a fan of those glamour shot photos, cuz I honestly think they’re cheesy being that they put all those filters. But this is a case, when it’s not so. I’m very proud to have one of her photos. And I was really touched that she still thought of me. 8’)

I was also talking to Chandi and Audrey and I guess Daniel only wants tutoring from me. It’s so hard to tell cuz I get sooo much whining from him. But I guess it can’t be too bad being that he refuses to get help from either Chandi or Audrey, when I’m not there for tutoring Wed. thru Fri. Go fig. ;p

Guess I’m making some kinda impacted on these guys lives. Warm fuzzies everybody! 8)

=
Was randomly surfing and went to the 10BASS T website, to see if it got updated since, when I meet up with Scott, a couple months ago with his new manager Mike. Mike had mentioned, that Solrac aka Carlos Mena, had emailed him for something. I guess Carlos had updated the 10BASS T site a bit cuz there was new link to Casa Mena. Guess he’s doing things solo. Wished they still had the 10BASS T sound cuz I really liked it. Hope his new album is good. Wished I had known that he was going to be in Socal, cuz not only did he go to LA but OC as well. And I missed it. Ah well. Next time I guess. Though I’m a lil peeved he never sent me a CD, after he said he would. I had search thru so many different music stores, hoping to find a copy but nothing…until good old Amoeba. And what was even better, it was for only a buck!

Guess who finally got her arse to gym? Ms. Jen of Kuo, that’s who. It’s about time. The last time I went was probably June. 5 months went to waste. tsk tsk I know. I just don’t like working out without a buddy. I need someone to be silly with, as well, as someone to motivate me, plus it’s a lot more fun working out with someone. So I talked to Anne from work and we decided that we would make an effort to go after work. Did some stretching, then did some weights and then went on the treadmill for half an hour. Walked for 15 minutes and then ran for 15 minutes. Not too bad for my first day back. Even tried those big balls thingies (I have no idea what they are called) but I had a hell of a time keeping my balance. And I wonder what ppl do, if they’re really gassy and they have to do weights or stretch. ;p

BTW if anyone wants to have a good laugh at the gym, you should take me. When I first got my 24 Hour Fitness membership with Sharon. We…okay maybe it was just me, but anyhow some people would look at me, as if I was some nut. This one time, this one elderly gentleman, looked at me, when I was working out on one of the weight lifting machines and couldn’t help but laugh at me, but he helped me out. Then another time, when I went to Sharon’s aerobics class at OCC, I was completely lost since it was my first time doing aerobics and I didn’t know any of the moves. Her own instructor was giving me looks, like oooookay. Sharon couldn’t help from laugh. I swear all those scenes you see in those comedy films are inspired by me. Yes, I’m sad, what can I say? ;p

Anywayz want to try their aerobics class, like yoga, kickboxing, and body sculpt, which Audrey suggested I should try. But I don’t know I’ll be able to workout tomorrow because I sooooooooo know I’m going to feel it tomorrow. Anyone want to rub some ben gay on me? SEXY SEXY. har har MMMMMM mint-tay!

And you want to hear, how much more of a dork I am? I brought a lock and since I hadn’t been to the gym for awhile, I forgot my combination. DOH!

Augh! Why only in Eww Yuck? Found out that Hard Nut is going to be in NY. Why not something in CA? I've been wanting to see this performance, since I caught a couple minutes of their show on PBS, way back when. But noooooooo I couldn't finish it since I had to go to my relatives. The few minutes I caught were hilarious. And now they're going to perform in NY. WHY? WHY?

Anyone want to buy me tickets to the show, as well as tickets to NY?

Recap of Saturday

Called up Amy to see if she was up to go to Rootdown’s 5th Anniversary. Always heard positive things about Rootdown and wanted to finally check out one of their events. And I wanted to go especially since I heard Breakestra was performing and I’ve been hearing about them for awhile and that they’re great band to see live.

So we decided to catch dinner in LA. And being that I’ve made it my goal in life to try as many different, yummy restaurants, I wanted to try something new. Heck, if I’m driving my butt up the dreaded 405 in the rain, it better be worth it. So I did some searching off the LA Weekly and losangeles.citysearch.com.

I’ve wanted to try some tapas places here in LA, ever since I went to Helena's in NY with Steve, after we had just watched the Blue Man Group. Wanted to find something not too expensive, and Cobras & Matadors looked too expensive and it got mixed reviews, so I choose La Paella, a Spanish-Mediterranean Restaurant, it’s close to the Beverly Center, since I could only find glowing reviews and the price seem reasonable.

Click here for one of the reviews I found

Found FREE parking right in front of restaurant. WOO HOO! Though, had some trouble finding La Paella, since it’s not on the main street of San Vicente, but on a small street. You’ll see what I mean, if you ever go. It’s basically looks like this old house, which got converted into a restaurant. Really small and quaint. One of those places you would take your date. Though since both Amy and I are single, we can still enjoy things that are apparently only reserved for couples. DAMMIT! Down with the disempowering couple structure! ARRR (someone bitter?)

Anwayz, asked the host, if any seats would be available, and he said nothing would be until 9:30, mind you, we got there at around 8ish. Felt like kickin’ myself, for not making reservations, you would think I would learn from the Bic Runga experience. But noooooooooo. But the host said if we didn’t mind we could eat at the bar. Which we did, though Amy wanted to bounce, since she didn’t get a seat until later.

So we made the most of it. They served us some really yummy sourdough bread with garlic mayo. Mmmmmmmmmm. Ordered their vegetable paella and some tapas. A fried calamari, scallops and chicken croquette. They were okay, the NY restaurant had more selection. But their paella was excellent, IMHO much better than the one in NY. But both Amy and I were so full from the bread, we had to doggy bag the rest of it. Alas no dessert this time.

So we head down to downtown. As we were parking, I noticed in the next car, was DJ Shortkut chilling in his car, looking either bored or tired. For some reason, they hadn’t open the event and ppl were still waiting outside. Ran into Paul Dang, the brain behind Native Tongh zine in line.

When we finally got in, it was slow to start. But it got much better, when Breakestra went stage. And let me tell you. They’re freaking amazing. Wow! So talented. Some members would play for awhile, then take a break, and dance with the crowd and went back up. They threw a few free shirts in my direction, but alas there was always someone taller who got it. Bleah. Had a great time, nonetheless, and it looked like Amy did as well. It’s been awhile since I attended a venue with good music. Great, friendly crowd. Sick of tried of yuppie places with fake and plastic ppl and shitty music.

Really cool link. www.archive.org Found some old Pac Ties stuff. http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.pacties.media.ucla.edu So much fun. Woo hoo!
Great, jen's never getting off the web now. AHAHAHAHA MADNESS I TELL YOU, MADNESS.

Bic Runga's Beautiful Collision is wonderful. Went so well together, with the weather we just had.

But currently I'm really feeling her old song Sway. *sigh*

Sway

Don't stray
Don't ever go away
I should be much too smart for this
You know it gets the better
Of me
Sometimes
When you and I collide
I fall into an ocean of you
Pull me out in time
Don't let me drown
Let me down
I say it's all because of you
And here I
Go
Losing my
Control
I'm practising your name
So I can say it
To your face it doesn't
Seem right
To look you in the eye
And let all the things
You mean to me
Come tumbling out my mouth
Indeed it's time
Tell you why
I say it's
Infinitely true
Say you'll stay
Don't come and go
Like you do
Sway my way
Yeah I need to know
All about you
And there's no cure
And no way to be sure
Why everythings turned inside out
Instilling so much doubt
It makes me so tired
I feel so uninspired
My head is battling with my heart
My logic has been torn apart
And now
It all turns sour
Come sweeten
Every afternoon
Say you'll stay
Don't come and go
Like you do
Sway my way
Yeah I need to know
All about you
Say you'll Stay
Don't come and go
Like you do
Sway my way
Yeah I need to know
All about you
Its all because of you
Its all because of you
Now it all turns sour
Come sweeten
Every afternoon
It's time
Tell you why
I say it's
Infinitely true
Say you'll stay
