about me

Practically imperfect in every way. Start with a lot of silliness. Mix in some insecurities and a handful of awkwardness. Add a pound of naivety, innocence, and child-like wonderings. Blend well. Half-bake and top off with a sprinkle of imagination and dollop of dreams. It’s the recipe for me!

dumbass quote

  • "I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some people out there in our nation don't have maps. And I believe that our education like, such as South Africa, and, the Iraq, everywhere like such as. And I believe that they should, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., or should help South Africa, and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future for our children." --Caitlin Upton, Miss South Carolina Teen 2007

Will Work for Food

July 14, 2006

I need to have some lab work done today. I’m not allowed caffeine for 24 hours before the test. That’s easy enough. I also can’t eat for four hours prior to the test. That’s not so easy. I think I’ve mentioned at least once before that the most difficult part about any medical procedure is when they restrict my food intake. I don’t necessarily eat a lot, but I like to eat when I WANT TO EAT.

Today is especially difficult. I went to the gym for an hour and a half at 10:00 a.m. I had a good breakfast before 9:00 and a snack at 10:00. Class ends at 11:30, but I’m allowed no food or drink after 11:00. It’s just after 1:00 now, and my stomach is complaining. Loudly.

I wonder if my test will be skewed after I pass out from low blood sugar.

    It’s weird bc I can totally go without eating anything for four hours when I’m not thinking about it. But like you said, once the restriction is placed, suddenly it feels like the end of the world.

    I guess it’s a control issue. :(

    I have to say that I really don’t understand why you’d go to the gym for AN HOUR AND A HALF knowing that you could not eat OR DRINK after that. Please explain further. :)

    Janet, I think you hit the nail on the head. It’s a control issue, and I happen to like being in control. :)
    Oz, the simple answer is, I am a people pleaser. The head guy told me he wanted me to come to class on Friday to test me, and I complied. I considered skipping the gym that day, but that’s where my common sense ended.

    I forgot to mention that the test consisted of running on a treadmill. The good news is, I didn’t pass out. Yay!

    hello. i just stumbled across your blog and thought that it was very pretty and it reminded me of these cupcakes that i made last week (http://www.flickr.com/photos/bonanzajellybean/190480667/). but now i feel bad for showing you these cupcakes coz you’re all hungry and stuff and these cupcakes probably won’t help the situation.

It’s the spark of an idea that hits me unexpectedly. It’s the silly wonderings I have after a whirlwind of thoughts. It’s about creativity, inspiration, and imagination. But sometimes, it’s just about eating noodles.
