I'm getting behind on updating my life, so I might as well do it now while I have the time!
I took a trip to 99 Ranch Market a week ago to stock up on Asian goodness. I bought lychess, durian, portabella mushrooms and a thai coconut. The last two I can buy anywhere, but they were really cheap there!
Jakfruits are in season, but far too expensive for me to actually buy one. They are .99 per lb. and even the small ones have to weigh around 25 lbs. I'm guessing. That's definitely not worth it to me. Regardless, they're sure fun to photograph! Here I am holding the smallest jakfruit of the pile:

I was impartial to Billy's voice for the longest time, but he really has grown on me over the past few years. Some person created this video from a trip they had to France.

I absolutely HATE the word "epic". Just needed to get that off my chest. |

I received a phone call from David yesterday evening from a hospital. His left middle finger had gotten smashed between two crates while helping a friend's dad at his warehouse. The top segment of his finger came off and they weren't able to repair it. He lost the top segment of his finger......
He's such a trooper, but of course this is extremely upsetting. My dad said it perfectly: "We're born perfect, then life continuously fucks our bodies up a little more each time until our body eventually gives up and we die". I'm trying to tell David that he's a true warrior now and it adds character and an interesting story to his life. I mean, at this point, we have to try to be positive because there's nothing that can be done. He's still just as beautiful as ever though. I hope he realizes that. |

My camera broke several months ago which is a huge bummer. This camera is not too good unfortunately, but I guess it will have to do for the time being....
Here's moi!
Look at all the noise in the background! Grrr....

Yesterday evening David and I decided to investigate Presidio park further as we were just *certain* that there was much more than meets the eye there.

So I received a few free tickets to this event called Art Walk, which happened yesterday. It was supposed to be this large event with live music and a bunch of booths with different artists showcasing their work. It was pretty disappointing. I'll just leave it at that. Here is the only photo I took of the event, which I thought looked really neat.
I don't like how blurry this turned out though. :/

So I had yet another birthday. They just keep creeping up on me! I celebrated it low-key, which is always my aim. I did receive some exquisite gifts though which I’d like to show here:

"I knew a boy,
he came from the sea.
He was the only boy who ever knew the truth
about me...."

I feel sick to my stomach tonight thinking about Kurt Cobain's death. Why would this suddenly creep up on me 15 years later I have no clue. He was so beautiful. Out of all the musician's deaths, his and John Lennon's are the most devastating to me.
I would really like to believe that Courtney had nothing to do with his death....or maybe not. I'm not sure what's worse: him feeling there was no way out besides taking his own life or this washed-up whore hiring someone to off him....
Either way, here is a song she wrote about him. I really adore the lyrics and am iffy on the actual song. Regardless, it's worth listening to at least once. Imeem won't allow me to embed the full song, so just click the link to listen to it:

This is so upsetting. I googled the location (41st & Alameda in Los Angeles) to see if the garden was still there and was SO bummed to find two huge lots of dirt. The 12-year-old, 14 acre garden was bulldozed. I can guarantee that the only reason this garden was even an issue was because of $. The city knew that a large amount of people were living off of this land instead of buying their food in stores. Pure bullshit. |

Today I received a hand-written envelope from Mark and Kathy Jackson (?). I have no clue who they are, but they somehow knew the address to my new home and were kind enough to mail me not only info on how Jesus can save me, but also how Mormons and Jews are deceiving and to beware of them. They actually referred to them as cults. You see, this right here is one of my main problems with not only the Christian devotion, but religions in general. I’ve come across countless religious individuals who marvel at the chance to brag about how Christ-like and distinguished they are while simultaneously bashing other religions or outsiders. And if you’re not a Christian, well, pray that God will save you one day or you will have one hell (no pun intended) of an eternity!
I’m not certain if I’ve ever met a person who was an authentic follower of Christ. The Christian religion declares their people to be impressionists of Christ, if you didn’t know. That would mean, loving everyone (including sinners) and being the best person you can be (no gossip!). I’m sure Jesus would be ashamed of 98% of you out there. Most of you are bigger hypocrites than the rest of us! At least the majority of us will admit to our faults and face up to the consequences of our actions instead of asking for forgiveness and then living guilt-free because we’ve been forgiven. How disgusting! This is why many murderers feel okay about themselves after ruining countless family’s and people’s lives (Berkowitz for example). He’s been forgiven by Christ!

These photos get me amped to continue with the decorating of my home. I love people who pull off bright colors in their homes! If I've posted any of these before, I apologize. It's hard for me to keep track of what I've already posted sometimes.

A few days ago I was babysitting my parent's dog Emma. Emma was shaved, by the way, and now looks like more like a poodle/dachsund mix instead of a bichon-poodle. She's so damn long and short! Her usual mass of fur really helps balance her out. Anyway....
We took Emma to two parks that day. First was the park near my house where a man was walking his pet rabbit!

I was just looking at my old videos and I just HAD to post this one on here. This was filmed several years ago at Albert's house. Albert works in a hospital and wanted to put an IV in James because James was drunk and Albert wanted to sober him up. Anyway, watch what happened:
This is why you don't play around with needles when you've been drinking! |

Currently I am gorging on a durian by myself. I went to 99 Ranch Market today when coming home from North County to see what exotic fruits they had at the moment. I LOVE that place! I feel as if I’m living out one of my dreams when I go there. So many strange fruits and other foods there that I never knew existed! The durian is so yummy this time around. Last time I had it, I wasn’t too impressed. I think that I had built it up to be something so amazing before I tried it after reading all the glowing testimonials on it. So once I finally tried it, I was slightly repulsed. But today, it was thawing out and had the texture of Cold Stone ice cream, all nice and cold like it too. It’s kind of like a caramelized onion pudding mixed with banana and something else. So odd. I know that sounds disgusting, but you must have an open mind when eating it. Not all fruits are sweet. Life has so many interesting things to offer us.

I love this song. I love most of her songs, but who couldn't? This song is supposedly about an alien abduction?

I thought I'd finally take some photos of my extremely small house. It was described as a cottage when I originally went to look at it. It's so small that it was hard to take photos of it! I love it though. All 500 sq. ft. of it. As much as I love large, beautiful mansions, I also love small, compact cottages like my own. Anyway, onto the photos:

This song is haunting. I listen to it on repeat. You must give it till at least 1:30 to get it's full effect:
Two friends gone in two months. Unreal. Both under 25. Both accidents that could have been prevented.
I don't want to have to go to any more funerals. I especially don't want to watch another mother grieve over her child.
