Fill in the Blank Fridays

I know, I know... I really should be doing my O-Chem lab that I ditched. In my defense, I peeked inside the room my lab was meeting in and I can assure you only 35% of the class was there and not single one of my group members was in sight.

So, Fill in the Blank Friday's is an idea I got from a good friend. She totally sold me on the whole idea and so I'm excited to test it out, thank goodness today is Friday or else I would have never remembered to do this otherwise.

Friday, January 28th 2011

I want to step out of myself and do a fill-in-the-blanks exercise for someone else.

He is a listener

He always exercises

He likes animals

He gives the best hugs

He loves cinnamon

He doesn't remember anything

He dresses well

He is excellent at video games

He can't cook

He looks athletic

Yep... thats my Brother for you in a nutshell

Look what I found!

(This would be my oh cool, look how excited I am about what I just found face)

I was looking through some older documents in my word files and found this paragraph from ages ago...and I'm talking like pre-high school. I'd been looking for it and finally I found it on one of my older flash drives.

Maybe I will finish it someday but for now here's what i got:

Years mean nothing when a day can steal a future. Goals, logs, deadlines, even dreams fall faster then they build. 3 seconds to be exact. That was how long it took to lose mine. My part of town was a little different than others. It was still in New York, and right outside of the city but its was right next to a bay so smelling the water wasn't strange at all. Summer days were always cooler with the bay breeze shooting its salty-fresh smell our way of town. Misses Beasley lived two doors down from mine, and walking by her house was like walking over a rickety old bridge, that felt like it was going to fall apart if you took another step. She lived alone, and everything about her was old, dilapidated and stale.

Burgers, Schnieppers Style

I have been craving burgers for a while now. And its not just any kind of burger, I'm feelin' a Schnippers cheeseburger with a side of sweet potato fries and maple dressing. I had a good friend that shared this place with me, and its DANG good.

Paul's Place between 7th and St. MArk's Place is also the bomb! I recommend the hidalgo Burger cause its got sweet and spicy jalepenos. This place has limited seating and only accepts cash but everything from their rough-gruff-nicer-than-they-look staff, to their amazing milkshakes are to die for...Major props to my Aunt for bringing me there one fateful winter's evening.
