I think I ruined things with that guy. God why did I had to ask him that question? I should have just gone with my gut. But I also wanted to find out before things got any more “serious”.

catchafallingstar — Sat, 22 Aug 2009 14:00:47 +0000

So he does/ did like me. =]

Thinking.

catchafallingstar — Tue, 18 Aug 2009 02:38:31 +0000

So I’ve been doing a lot of thinking.

I feel like I’m going no where in my life, that I’m going to become nothing if I continue the path I’m going, and I don’t even know what path I’m taking. I feel trapped, like I’m in a sinkhole. I’m confused about what I should really do with my life, Im questioning my “friends” and my “love life” or the lack of one. I really need to figure things out. Moreover, about my weight. Plus financially, ugh, I do not even want to go there at all right now. I just need to get my self back out there with AVON and I need a planner. Girls at Albany will buy make-up, right? Anyways, after thinking all of these, I then read my horoscope:

Virgo-There is potential for many changes to happen in your immediate future. With recent planetary movement strongly affecting your sign, changes are imminent:some major, some small, but all significant. Mostly, the choice is yours, Virgo, but some changes will seem like fate is taking over. Even though decisions might be made by other people, life can move you to a newly enlightened and powerful place of operation.

I think I’m having a meltdown.

Day 2

catchafallingstar — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 22:19:44 +0000

So it’s day two of the diet, and it’s been going well. Although 1 cup of cottage cheese is kind of hard to gulp down, but yeah. For a minute I thought this diet would be a little hard to do since I still have family here visiting. And I’m sure we all know how it’s like when it comes to eating when family is over….at least if you’re Italian you’ll know. hah. My mom told me that we’re all going to the pizzeria so my dad can make us all frittata, and she knows I am on a diet which made me a little annoyed. But anyways we were waiting for my sister, and turns out she has to come later so woohoo, I was able to continue to sick to my diet. Like really if it wasn’t for my family I would have no trouble with this diet, but my mom has to be like, “OH I made you this!.” Like thanks mom I did tell you I am on a diet. -.-

Moving along, I sort of met someone. At first I was a little unsure cause the convo doesn’t really flow, but then again we’ve only been talking for 10 days. So yeah I don’t know. Mean c’mon its only been 10 days. And then when we talked last night, we had an easier time talking. It just takes time, I know. With some people you’re able to have a conversation that flows quickly and with others it takes a little more time. Plus his a little nervous at first and doesn’t really know what to say, and I’m shy at first and suck at flirting haha. But so far his cute and sweet. =)

Although the distance might be eh, his only a 30 minute drive from Albany, but I don’t drive, even if i did, I don’t have a car and I’m not allowed to have a car on campus. And the bus ride is like fucking crazy amount of time which confuses me a little, mean how does 30 minutes go to 2+ hours? 2 FUCKING hours.

Anyways I got to go, peace

St. Joseph’s Hospital Diet.

catchafallingstar — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 00:45:42 +0000

So I decided to try out this diet my aunt told me about, known as the St. Joseph’s Hospital Diet.

Day 1

Breakfast
1/2 grapefruit
1 slice of toast
2 tsp peanut butter

Lunch
1/2 cup tuna
1 slice of toast

Dinner
3oz any meat
1 cup string beans
1 cup beets
1 small apple
1 cup vanilla ice cream

2nd Day

Breakfast
1 egg
1 slice of toast
1/2 bananana

Lunch
1 cup cottage cheese
5 saltines

Dinner
2 hot dogs
1 cup broccoli
1/2 cup carrots
1/2 banana
1/2 cup vanilla ice cream

Day 3

Breakfast
5 saltine crackers
1 slice of cheddar cheese
1 small apple

Lunch
1 hard boiled egg
1 slice of toast

Dinner
1 cup of tuna
1 cup of beets
1 cup of cauliflower
1/2 cantaloupe
1/2 cup vanilla ice cream

Coffee, Tea and Water allowed at all meals

Although you should drink about 5-6 bottles of water every day and exercise about 20-30 minutes everyday.

Today was my first day and I was able to sick to the diet pretty well. Although my mom got me chinese food >< at least it was shrimp and I only ate the shrimp and a couple pieces of broccoli.

So I’ll let you know how it goes. I’m only doing this until the 25th maybe a little bit before then. It all depends.

Anyways I should go exercise. I don’t know if I should do my own exercise plan or try Jillian’s Michaels Cardio Kick box. When I was doing my own exercise plan it was working, people told me I looked skinner. So I don’t know. It also doesn’t really help that I am sick, I get so lazy when I’m sick, but working out should help me feel better if I am sick.

Oh well.

Becco. Yum Yum 3. Kaste and Block Heads.

catchafallingstar — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 04:45:17 +0000

So I haven’t been updating like I said I would. Oh well. I can’t exactly remember what order things happened in, which makes me hate my self even more but oh well. Also since we basically went to the cit every day, it got a little confusing. So I think thursday we did nothing. just sat home. Friday we went to the restaurant Becco’s. It was alright. The food was really good. Pricey though, but duh its Manhattan. Thenn after that we went to Canal Street and got purses.
Then Saturday we went to Brooklyn and got pastries my aunt wanted to go to the city but my mom didn’t want to do anything since the next day was my sister’s birthday. So we ended up going anyway. Just my aunt, uncle, Gu, Gabby, Uncle Jim and I. We went to this thai restaurant called Yum Yum 3. It was pretty good. But one thing that bothered me a little was it felt like they rushed us. Like the minute we were done, they took our plate away and gave us our next dish. But whatever.
Then Sunday was my sister’s birthday. I baked her a cake. =)
Then Monday, everyone went to this pizza restaurant, Kaste. It was really good, definitely go there, just one thing that sucked was I had to wait 20 minutes before they realized we needed refills. After that my aunt, Gu, Gabby, mom and I went to the city. My aunt rose and uncle jim went home and my Uncle Giussepee and Joey and my brother went to a Yankee game. My aunt got me shoes =) and my mom got my cousins things from Sephora. Then we went to look for the Naked Cowboy but couldn’t find him. I think it was too late (5 pm) and then this lady working at Sephora told us about this place called Block Heads, its know for amazing margarita’s, particularly the Black Flower and the Bull Dog. Now I’m just sitting here with my cousins watching television. We’re suppose to be up at 5, but there really is no point to going to bed. Just sleep on the plane.

Anyways, I’m really going to miss them, I always do. Whenever they leave I always cry. =( My aunt is talking about coming here for Christmas but I know that will never happen. =(

And I’ve decided that I should write in my blog everyday. I should have during this week so my thoughts wouldn’t be jumbled. I’m going to do that more when I’m at UAlbany. When good things happen =) and bad of course =/.

Anyways, my uncle Jim and aunt Rose are still here for a week, then I have like 6 days to pack for Albanyyyy =) wow time is flying by fast.

But yeah, I had a great time this week. And I gotten so much better with the subways and trains, lol. We took the subway sooo mcuh, my goodness. But one thing that sucked was I wasn’t able to buy a 7 day unlimited metro card through the ticket machine, I had to go to the booth. so lets see I got ummm 6 cards through this week, each card is $20 so $120, when I could have only spent close to $30. But another thing is you can’t swipe the card to many times. oh well. People at the subway were pissing me off, stuck up snobby bitches. I hate girls.

But yeah, my little cousin Joey is getting on my nerves. I dunno, me and little kids, ughh.

So yeah there’s not much else I can write about. I can’t think of anything else. But if I do I will write it. And I’m sorry if this is poorly written and rushed. I’m just trying to get all my thoughts out now while I can. And I have so much else to write thats not related to my family being here so yeah. And I’m hating the CAPS lock on my notebook right now.

Shopping and Turkish Kitchen.

catchafallingstar — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 05:31:33 +0000

So today my Uncle, cousin Joey and my brother went to tour the new Yankee stadium. While they were having fun doing that, my cousins and I went shopping at an outside mall. It kept down pouring every time we wanted to go to a different store lol. And for the first time I went to Wet Seal and I love it. Nice prices and cute clothes. My cousin and I actually got the same tunic, haha. While we were doing that my mom and Aunt Claudia went gambling haha.

So after that we went to the city and met up with my sister and ate at this place called ‘Turkish Kitchen’ and whoa DEFINITELY recommend it. And the desserts, yummm.

http://www.turkishkitchen.com/TURKISH%20KITCHEN.html

We had baklava, Kayisi, and Sutlac, all really yummy. Of course we ate more than just dessert, but I can’t exactly remember all the dishes we got, plus a lot of them was meat dishes so I can’t really give you a review on it, but my Aunt and Uncle LOVED them. It was mostly lamb.

Anyways, after that we started to head back, and were taking a punch of pictures. and blah I look ugly. My cousin looked gorgeous. She always does =)

Umm thats really it. If I remember any small detail I’ll just update this.
Tomorrow, we’re off to China town and I think this place called Becca or Becco, something like that. And then we’re picking up my aunt rosa and uncle jim at the airport around 9.
