fried rice

I'm pretty sure that "fried rice" I just made was wrong. I'm not sure the smell should remind me of 4-H. You know, like visiting-my-friends-in-the-barn-during-the-fair-4-H.

Next time I will listen to the directions more carefully and ask questions or I will look up the recipe online. Or order from Gum Rai. With crab rangoon. Yummy.

remember in turkey?

I'd see women with flowers to their face in Turkey all the time. I wondered why it was. Until I rode the buses and other transports, then I found out.

I remembered this today on the bus to school. The smell could have been coming from me. I think today might have been shower day.

I did deodorize, though.

free coffee?

Who wants to go pick this up for me? Just come to work and get my keys from me, k? K.

distractions

I definitely didn't need any more distractions. But I am very glad to know about this new one.

I also didn't need any more skirts, but I just can't pass up Goodwill, apparently.

Time to start homework.

After some Chicken Nuggets, maybe.

my best buy? perhaps...

Also I've decided that I would like a new camera which is unfortunate because I am trying to save money FOR Fiji. But I need to take good pictures IN Fiji, right?

If this happens.. I have to decide if I want to rely on my little camera (which I like but has low megapixel and zoom) for a pocket camera and get a camera with a big zoom, fancy features, and big megapixels. Or "replace" my pocket sized camera with this camera or camera or camera with big megapixels and a good zoom.

So far I am leaning toward this camera or this camera.

In case you were curious.

hamaca

You can't see it in this picture, but our hammocks are hanging from a hook put in the wall, specifically for hammocks (which is probably a good thing since we decided to double bunk our hammocks).

I want hooks in my wall that are for my hammock (isn't it pretty and wonderful?). I asked Dick's Sporting Goods if they had one and they thought I was crazy. I tried to explain that having a hammock hook in Mexico was like having a window in your house. You know, common and necessary.

Sarah would understand. Right, Sarah? (She's my Mexican roommate. She is also all things non-white. The "United Nations" as she would tell you.)

So... hammock hooks? In the walls? Is it possible on US soil?

craiggy and will

Craigslist and Goodwill.

I need a truck for all of the things I want to buy. I also need money for all of the things I want to buy.

So maybe it works out.
