You Belong in Rome

You're a big city soul with a small town heart Which is why you're attracted to the romance of Rome Strolling down picture perfect streets, cappuccino in hand And gorgeous Italian people - could life get any better?

What City Do You Belong In?

That is right, hot and spicy, who knew!

You Are Cayenne Pepper

You are very over the top and a bit overwhelming. You have a fiery personality, and you can give anyone a good jolt. You can easily take things up a couple notches, no matter what crowd you're running with.

This is so vague of course it applies in some areas, but fun - anything that has to do with names is fun.

What Victoria Morgan Means

You are very hyper. You never slow down, even when it's killing you. You're the type of person who can be a workaholic during the day... and still have the energy to party all night. Your energy is definitely a magnet for those around you. People are addicted to your vibe. You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing. You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long. You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start. You are very open. You communicate well, and you connect with other people easily. You are a naturally creative person. Ideas just flow from your mind. A true chameleon, you are many things at different points in your life. You are very adaptable. You are a seeker. You often find yourself restless - and you have a lot of questions about life. You tend to travel often, to fairly random locations. You're most comfortable when you're far away from home. You are quite passionate and easily tempted. Your impulses sometimes get you into trouble. You are well rounded, with a complete perspective on life. You are solid and dependable. You are loyal, and people can count on you. At times, you can be a bit too serious. You tend to put too much pressure on yourself. You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something. You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense. You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun. You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic "Type A" personality. You are confident, self assured, and capable. You are not easily intimidated. You master any and all skills easily. You don't have to work hard for what you want. You make your life out to be exactly how you want it. And you'll knock down anyone who gets in your way! You are deeply philosophical and thoughtful. You tend to analyze every aspect of your life. You are intuitive, brilliant, and quite introverted. You value your time alone. Often times, you are grumpy with other people. You don't appreciate them trying to interfere in your affairs. You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people. You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts. You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals.

What's" Your Name's Hidden Meaning?

PONDER THIS - In ALMOST complete opposition with MYSELF...

So today is an absolutely gorgeous New England Day - in fact it is an absolute gorgeous anywhere day!

the commons

Today for lunch i went outside and ate - i of course sat in the sun and thourghly enjoyed being hot! I had short sleeves on and i am pretty sure i got some sun, it was out for about 45 mins so hopefully if i can do this on a regular basis i will be able to get some sun (on my arms at least) this summer - YEAH!

If you are wondering what my title means, i just thought it was curious that my last post was about being excited for snow and winter again and then i go an write about how excited i am for it to be warm and sunny - i just had to laugh about what a walking contradition i really am with almost everything.

In all honesty i love all seasons for whatever reason (fall still reigns as the winner); but there is something "special" about spring and the excitment for summer - everyone is happier, smiling and ready to play (including myself). Maybe it is engrained in us to love summer from when we were kids and got summer vacations - oh to have summer vacation again!

SO I did it, check out what I bought this morning!!! I am so so so excited for next winter (this is the only time you will hear me say this, i just want to use what i bought)

Best part is I got all this for 1/2 off!!!

Umm the good old days....is that what we are suppose to say

I was catching up on some blogs and Autumn has added this awful awful and completly embarassing picture of me from the early 90s. SO i decided to post it on my blog (go figure). These are 3 of my dearest friends growing up - we even made up a nicname for our group of friends - are you ready for it BUBS (German for Choice variety of Babe (and yes i still remember this - silly girls we were)) we felt that it was very very fitting. :) Little did i know how much i was awkwardly not at that stage of my life. Oh well. As we get older i guess we are just able to accept our awkwardness and weaknesses and make improvements since THAT time in our lives.
In my defense of me in this picture (if there can be any) I think we were at my house and i was probably painting - we were doing the very stylish rag affect on the walls in my brothers room - i am pretty sure...


Sorry ladies had to post it again, but just so you can see how these ladies have turned into absolutly georgeous women - here are links to see Afton (ok so i don't have a link for her - she hasn't started a blog yet) Katrina and Rachael.

TO BE OR NOT TO BE THAT IS THE QUESTION

or maybe it is to buy or not to buy - I want to buy a snowboard and all the gear, it is the best time to do it because everything is on sale - but it is still quite expensive...My roommate says if i want we can design the art on my snowboard and she would paint it, so i don't really care too much about the look of the board, because custom trumps all, but everything just adds up so quickly - but here is what i am feeling. :) The GRAND TOTAL for all is about $400 - but every time i go it is at least $70 to rent - so i would just need to use my stuff 6 times it makes up for the price.

As you can probably tell my pants are brown and my jacket is blue, so i might as well go with what i already have. It is a good combo:)

FYI

Several of you have tried calling me recently, but I have kind of disapeared for a few days (and still need a few more days), if you have anything pressing you can send it to me in an email , I will call you back when I can. I have somethings changing right now and it is a little stressful and I need to work through it...I will be in touch shortly I just feel bad that i am not responding and wanted to let you know, but it isn't anything but me working through some stuff. I just hate when people don't answer my phone calls so i don't want to do that to others i just don't want to talk right now. Thanks for everything.

Ice Cream You Scream

So today at lunch they had ice cream bars, I hadn't had ice cream in awhile so I took one. Now I feel a little ill; this has happened frequently when I have had ice cream in the past few years and recently I have started to think it wasn't because I ate too much ice cream, but instead that maybe I might (as awful as it sounds) be allergic to ice cream!!! So sad, because for as long as I can remember I would always say the one thing I couldn't live without was ice cream. I don't think it is all dairy because I can drink milk, love cheese etc, but their must be something else about ice cream that my body has started to reject. Frozen yogurt seems to be ok (at least last time I had some, last fall); so I guess I will have to stick with stuff that is close, but not as rich. Sad day, this probably wont make me stop eating ice cream all together, but will definately make me think not only twice but 3 times about how good is the ice cream and is it worth feeling a little ill for an afternoon or night. Have any of you had similar things happen, maybe not with ice cream but other things you love?

CAMBODIA

Here are some pictures from my trip to Cambodia, I only have 1/2 the pictures to choose from , Ann has the other 1/2 and will be sending me a CD with her pictures soon ... hopefully. I will give short explanation for the different pictures and will have different post concerning different stories and thoughts to come!


would you eat one...i couldn't bring myself to: I wish I was so brave


visited the floating village in Siem Reap - land is so expensive there


saw the Apsaria Dancing



visited the Angkor Wat and the surrounding Wat (temple) they were amazing, and the stairs were steep, the views were beautiful, and all and all such a fun day of adventures! Oh and i wore sandals when i was traipsing around the Wats - so here is a picture of my dirty dirty feet as well like i said a day full of adventures!


we rode an elephant up to a Wat on a hill


the palace in Phnom Phen


the killing field I will post on this subject later, i am reading a biography of Pol Pot and will for sure have more to say on this subject, let me just say this is a sad circumstance, and such a foreign concept of letting something like this happen, but i can speak very boldly sitting writing on my laptop in a heated apartment.

Well there is a snapshot, more to be posted...
