So I have just read HPatDH...not happy. Not happy at all.

Oh and I saw HPOotP. It was crappppppppppppppp.

I will write more on my next post...I'm fuming right now...

The End.

Transformers! More than meets the eye!

Woot Woot! Transformers was freaking awesome (I saw it on 4^th of July)! What creeped me out was that my mummy turns out to be a Transformers geek. Yeah. Did not expect it at all. We weren’t that late when we arrived at the theater, but it was packed! It was the first time that I sat in a side chair (you know the ones that only have two seats in a row), but it was all good.

Oh and I also saw Michael Moore’s Sicko. It’s definitely worth watching. Now I want to move out of the US and go live in Europe. The movie really opened my eyes to the insurance crap. I think it’s so sad how the world only revolves around sex, money, and power.

NOW! HARRY POTTER!!!

I’m so stoked!!! I think I’ve lost my mind by waiting for-EVER for this book! If you don’t mind I will nerd you out with some Harry Potter convo (oh, and I need to mention that HP the movie didn't come out on the 13^th but on the 11^th. Damn people who tell me wrong info that make me sound stupid. I will be watching sometime soon, by myself because people are way to busy to see it with me so screw them, and I will be giving my full hearted review soon).

Ok…here’s some very interesting facts that you may or may not have realized throughout the Harry Potter books:

*J.K. Rowling took parts of the words Quaffle (Qu), Bludger (d), and Snitch (itch) to make up the word Quidditch

*If you rearrange Severus Snape’s name it becomes Perseus Evans…Lily Evans—any connections???

*In OotP, Harry’s first stay at Grimmauld Place, the entire house sits down to eat dinner, which equaled to a total of 13 people. Remember when Professor Twelawney stated in PoA that the one who rises first from the table of 13 will die? Well sure enough…“Sirius started to rise from his chair.” <----it’s when he was arguing with Molly Weasley Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

*This one is uber duber freaky…In St. Mungo’s when they were going to visit Mr. Weasley- “They climbed a flight of stairs and entered the ‘Creature-Induced’ corridor, where the second door on the right bore the words ‘DANGEROUS’ DAI LLEWLLYN WARD: SERIOUS BITES.’” If you put these words from the sign on paper straight down, they would read:

Creature-Induced Injuries

Dangerous

Dai Llewellyn Ward

Serious Bites

Now, take the first word of each of the lines above and read them…Creature Dangerous Dai Serious…In English: Kreacher dangerous, Die Sirius (Eeeeeek!)

Few of my favorite quotes from Harry Potter:

*“It is Uranus my dear,” said Professor Trelawney peering down the chart.

“Can I have a look at Uranus too, Lavender?” –Ron

*“Dobby knows, sir! Harry Potter has to go into the lake and find his Wheezy—”

“Find my what?”

“—and take his Wheezy back from the merpeople!”

“What’s a Wheezy?”

*“You don’t want to bottle up your anger like that, Harry, let it out,” said Fred, beaming. “There might be a couple people 50 miles away who didn’t hear you.”

*“Ah, well, people can be stupid abou’ their pets.” –Hagrid

*“If you want to know what a man’s like, take a good look at how he treats his inferior, not his equals.” –Sirius Black (RIP)

*“You might even have a scar now, if you’re lucky…that’s what you want, isn’t?” –Harry to Ron (I think that was a really intense confrontation between Harry and Ron)

Are you growing bored? Back to reality, I suppose…

I’ve been thinking about becoming an art director (and saving my money to open a vegan bakery). Well, you have to work your way up, but when you reach the peak…you make a crap load of money. It starts at $75,000. Woo! This is about the 50 millionth time I’ve changed my career goal. I wonder what’s next? The president. I hate being so confused about my future. I feel like a lost little puppy with no where to go.

I painted my jewelry box…

I hope you got to see Live Earth. AFI!!! Ya. The definition of beauty (AFI, I mean). I’ve been thinking about the whole cause of Live Earth…and yeah, great cause…but you know eating animals isn’t really helping the environment…is it? I mean all the food that you’re feeding the animals that have been viciously treated, you could be feeding the homeless and those who are in Africa (and basically everyone who is less unfortunate all around the world). That’s something that Al Gore should think about as well and not just global warming (Yes, sir! That’s a hugemungo issue, but so is keeping this environment alive with healthy human beings and non-suffering animals).

My mum was cleaning out her room and found some of my old calligraphy projects. I was always the “that girl” who never went with what the teacher instructed. I loved to come up with something totally original so then mine won’t blend in with the other people’s works. My teacher really appreciated it too. She’s the one that encouraged me to go on to an art school because she said that I have so much talent bottled up inside of me that I have to share it with the world. I have to say, she is one of favorite teachers thus far. I did all the background stuff for the Horoscope chart (with the sponged stars) and the Christmas one was my idea too.

We were supposed to write a poem or whatever we wanted with any border we chose that she had laid out on the table. I asked her if she had any Christmas ones, and from there people copied me (grrr…).

There was also this booklet that I made that extended over 12 pages (which she assigned it to be 6 pages) done all in calligraphy based on Green Day (all this Green Day stuffies was because it was their peak of the American Idiot era. I usually go all out for my bandy bands when they’re having their new albums out. I’m a huge band junkie. No, American Idiot was not my first Green Day CD, so don’t get the impression that I’m one those prissy chicks that only like popular rock bands).

Anywho, all the picture ones that don’t seem to be dealing with calligraphy are actually pictures made of words (lyrics to be exact). My teacher was so shocked that they didn’t have the original picture taped behind them to make the written picture look clearer.

Yes, I am good aren’t I? I’m just kidding, I’m not an arrogant bitch. I question myself all the time why it looks like crap and the next thing you know I get all these “ooo’s” and “ahhh’s” and I have to take one step back to see what the hell they’re talking about. My mum’s friend is an art teacher and she told me when she was looking at some of my work, “Your work is phenomenal and flawless, all you need is confidence in yourself. You need to say to yourself that what you do is fantastic.” I guess…I dunno. It’s hard to see my work as BAM! I just say that I tried my best and I’m not working on it anymore. I see the flaws and crappiness of it and I can’t see past it. But, I still love anything dealing with art. It brings me to life. I can actually express myself and what goes on in my head is poured into what I’m working on. It’s the greatest feeling. It’s like an out-of-the-body experience.

I think the reason why I put my work down so much is due to the fact that when I see other people’s works, I think to myself mine is poop compared to theirs and I feel slightly ashamed of what I have created. I need to learn to love what I do, because if I don’t know one will.

So I leave you here till next time (hopefully not so long from now!)

The End.

I have been taken over by the Lazy Demon of Laziness and that is why I have finally posted today.

Aren’t you uber duber excited for Blaqk Audio’s CexCells???? I cannot wait! I’m still trying to figure out if Jade’s bloggy is run by him or just a stupid imposter that makes me happy when an updation has been posted. The one of the people who run the message boards on the official Blaqk Audio fan site (www.blackinkstyle.com) say that it is…

Had an absolute bad experience when I started baking my thumbprint cookies on Thursday night (06/28/07)…everything just went all kapooey. The humidity wasn’t helping either. My batter was way too sticky and all the things that I touched just got batter on it. My cookies turned out flat…ugly…and too floury. About four of them broke in half and a couple of them sunk right down the middle making a nice fountain of strawberry jam. To make things even better I broke the coffee pot (glass shards everywhere!!!). I dunno. I guess the Baking Gods weren’t too happy with me or it’s sign that I’m crap like my cookies. Bah! Be gone you evil demons of horrid incidences!!! Leave me to bake glorious cakes and cookies and not this shit that I have been creating!!!

A game of hearts lifted my spirits just a tad bit (the dots represent how much it improved my mood---> ..) and as always, I type my name in as “moo” when I play. You didn’t need to know that…

Potluck (06/29/07). Yes. I debated to give the carnivores my cookies…I thought not! If I did, then they were going to think that these crappy cookies are what vegan people survive on. I can’t do that to my fellow veggies!!! I’ll kept the crap to myself (strangely my mummy loved them…why is it that all the poopy things I make end up being a good thing with her? Because she’s my mum and she doesn’t want her daughter to think that what she makes is shit. What a fab mum I have!).

I went to go check what they had…nothing really (for me that is). I took pictures of the fruit, few veggies, and my mum’s salad. The did for the fruit and veggies weren’t vegan. I ate nothing. NOTHING. I felt sick from the ch**ken w*ngs that were on the table.

I have got more than half of my room makeover done. I’m happy it’s not as crowded and now I actually have light!

Harry Potter, Yo!

Oh and my mum made a spiffy pasta salad.

I hope you all have a fab Fourth of July! (I’m going to go see Transformers!)

The End.

Good Day Mates! How’s life treating you?

Excuse my random blah blahs that I post occasionally…sometimes you just have to let it out. Anywho…

On Friday (06/22/07) my best friend and I spent the whole day together (wee!). We watched Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End (my 2^nd time, her first…sadly she hasn’t watched the 2^nd one yet…Dead Man’s Chest) and spent about 500 hours at Whole Foods (her first time going there…so you can imagine a kid going into a candy store). I swear we were in the water isle for about 20 minutes.

Then we went to the iMac store and took extremely random pictures on their computers (I’m on the left…just to let those who can’t tell a Chinese chick apart from a half Persian/half Korean girly). Sadly, she’s not going to return for another month aaaaaand she’s still a carnivore. Meh. I have no idea how we turned out to be the best of friends. Very strange, no?

I was absolutely in shock to see that Jade posted on his blog after…what? 8 billion years?! That made me H-A-P-P-Y!

I am glad to see and hear that my poop cake has become a success by my fellow bloggers, family, and friends. Who would ever have thought that the poop cake of all cakes would be a winner?! Ha ha.

It is very very very very (just multiply “very” by infinity) here in the So Cal…the valley, yo! I HATE THE VALLEY! Not really…I just hate heat. I’m like an ice cube that has been placed on a hot stove… “I’m melting!” And to those who never believed in global warming until recently (or just don’t believe it exists) and have been using aerosol hairsprays and whatevers, I say FUCK YOU! We’re suffering because of you and pretty soon we’ll be nothing like those poor innocent creatures that you have drastically tortured and have so willingly placed on your goddamn plate to eat. What was I saying? Ah, yes, so to keep myself cool and not use so much energy, unlike those other bastards out there who cause power outages, I make smoothies and milk shakes! Yummy mummy!

If you’re one for tarty stuff…here’s one that I luuuuurve (I haven’t named it yet…how about…Num Num? Ha ha, that sounds funny. It’s not sugary, so if you want something sweeter I suggest using about a Teaspoon or a Tablespoon of maple syrup):

Ingredients:

5 Big Hugemungo Frozen Strawberries (or about 7 normal ones)

1 Box of Frozen Blueberries (about a cup)

1 Cup Soymilk

½ Cup Soy Yogurt

The Magic:

Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until all the lumpy lumps are out and my dear friend, you have yourself a fantastic drink to keep yourself cool.

Forgot to mention that my mum’s friend got me The Mediterranean Vegan Kitchen cookbook. *Happy*

I was thinking about buying it, but I wasn’t sure due to the fact that…well, you know, me already being half Persian. I was really pleased to see that it’s not the usual traditional dishes that’s in it. I most definitely recommend it to other people who are looking for a new kick in their vegan diet (and those of you who aren’t vegan…GO VEG!!!).

I don’t think I’ve ever met a Persian vegan…actually my aunt’s friend’s daughter was a vegan for about a month and then she was like “My body needs meat.” Urgh. Screw you. I’ve met Persian vegetarians, though. Most of them do it for themselves and not for the animals. What-Ev.

HARRY POTTER IS COMING!!!

No, I’m not talking about the movie (07/13/07, Friday the 13^th…how original…bleh!), THE BOOK (07/21/07)!!!

I feel sad that it’s coming to an end. I remember when I started it in middle school or was it elementary? And now…it’s OVER! *sniff* I’m rereading all the years (1-6), as I do every time J.K. Rowling is coming out with a new book, to refresh my memory…not that I wouldn’t forget anything.

My mum is having a potluck on Friday and she’s making her world famous salad. I’m planning on making something…just don’t know what yet. I should make something so unbelievable that her coworkers will be like, “Wow! I’m a dumbass! I’m going to go vegan!” That would be super duper!

Oh and no I haven’t put together my room yet…be patient. Believe me, I’ve been pretty impatient myself. I think on Saturday it will be complete, except for a few pictures for my walls…which I need to go on a scavenger hunt for. I’m looking for Andy Warhol stuff (replicas, of course. I’m not that rich) and Nightmare Before Christmas posters…or black and white vintage photos. Ya. I’ll post pictures of the makeover, no worries.

The End.

Nausea! Heartburn! Indigestion! Upset Stomach! Diarrhea! HEY! (Pepto Bismol)

Best Speech EVER (From School of Rock):

“Give Up. Just quit. Because in this life you can’t win, yeah you could try, but in the end you’re just going to lose, BIG TIME. Because the world is run by the man (who?). Oh, you don’t know the man? He’s everywhere, in the white house, down the hall, Ms. Mullins-she’s the man. And the man ruined the o-zone and he’s burning down the Amazon, and he kidnapped Shamu and put her in a chlorine tank. There used to be a way to stick it to the man and it was called Rock and Roll, but guess what? Oh no, the man ruined that too by a little thing called MTV. So don’t waste your time trying to make anything cool or pure or awesome because the man is going to call you a fat washed up loser and crush your soul, so do yourself a favor and JUST GIVE UP!”

It was my birthday on Sunday…on Father’s Day. I had to share my day. Unlike other people who have the whole day to themselves. Hmph! But it was good.

I started a bit off schedule. I was supposed to wake up at 4 am, but I forgot to turn my alarm on. I know, smart, huh? So I got up at 5:30ish am and started cooking. Ended up being brunch. I made Lemon Cupcakes, Scrambled Tofu, Blackberry Waffles, Chocolate Pudding Cake with Ganache Frosting (XXXXXXXX-TRA chocolaty!!!), and Pumpkin Cranberry Walnut Muffins.

It was chaotic in the kitchen, luckily my mom offered to help me out. (Usually my birthdays always end up really crappy and that’s how the day started). I made the lemon frosting wrong (I mixed everything together when it was actually supposed to be added one at a time and was dripping the lemon cupcake batter all over the place (I have no idea how that was happening because I’m extremely anal about uber clean). Then my mom had to calm me down because I started bawling all over the place. After that things started looking brighter (plus my best friend texted me to wish me a happy birthday). My Chocolate Pudding Cake kind of deflated…which didn’t make me too happy. I labeled it the Poop Cake. But it tasted spec-tac-u-lar!

After brunch my parents took me to Whimsic Alley (THE Harry Potter Store). It was freaking awesome!!! Then we went to the 3^rd street promenade (Santa Monica) and wandered around a bit. And then they took me to California Vegan, which surprisingly was really good. I had Dim Sun, Pad Thai with Seitan, Brown Rice, Egg Roll, and Salad. My mom had the same thing as I did (my Dad didn’t order anything…) but she had Spicy Egg Plant with Soy Ch***en.

We came home and my best friend called me and said that she was home and then I lost service…crappy phones!!! So I went over to her house and stayed there the rest of the day.

I hope you all had a swell father’s day.

By the way, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows comes out in 1 month and 3 days, to be exact!

The End.
