I found this on postsecret.com. Babar was one of my favorite shows as a kid. But I can totally relate to this person’s fear.
Also.. I read an article this morning about how people fear that Babar teaches kids Imperialism. I will not even begin to explain why this is ridiculous.
So after years of resisting, I finally watched an episode of The Hills (Side note - this was just so i could distract myself from the horrible task of packing).
I seriously can not believe this crap is allowed on tv and that these skanks are famous! I know all about these trashy girls thanks to my addiction to Perezghilton.com… and i knew the show was bad.. but it’s like REALLY bad.
Maybe it’s the awkard pauses or the fact that Lauren Conrad may be the most boring person to ever exist (does she talk, or does she just give dirty looks every minute of her life?). Or maybe it had to do something with the fact that Spencer seems like the biggest prick and the fact that Heidi said “Thanks for always ordering my food for me” when they showed a clip of them eating at a restaurant for the 1,000 time… umm, isn’t she my age? Is she not capable of ordering her own food? Or maybe she can’t read? That must be it. She probably is illiterate and can’t read the menu…. I’m actually kind of fond of Heidi and her ability to turn absolutely nothing into a career in which she gets free designers clothes and boobs jobs, so i’ll let her illiteracy slide.
I think what is most shocking is that i recently read on Perez Hilton that Lauren makes $70,000 per episode and Heidi and Spencer make $65,000 EACH per episode! Seriously? This show seriously generates that much money?!? This makes me a little worried about the youth of the world…
I think a tv show about me doing… Nothing..would be more entertaining than The Hills. I should have my own reality show where I swim in my pool and make sand castles at the beach, and hang out at Disney World and where I hang from palm trees and wrestle Alligators. I should get paid $1 mill for that shit. It would be pure entertainment…
K..back to packing up my life for FLA!
Today Jessica and I enjoyed a nice lunch in Copley Square….which was then followed by a swarm of photographers and a John Mellenkamp sighting. Just another day in the lives of Jessica Helene and Jacqueline Boisvert!
So after years of no camera/no texting/no hitech things - i have finally gotten a new phone (and phone plan with Justin). I have decided to enter the 21st century. My phone number is the same (i’ve had it for 5 years, i don’t want to change it now!)… but this is HUGE! I am blown away at all the things this new phone can do! I can surf the web pretty much anywhere at anytime. I can check perezhilton.com from my phone…seriously! I am most excited about my new texting feature. I will no longer have to hear “Why didn’t you get my text?”… because i will get texts now! So everyone…start texting me, because i will now respond or at least be able to put in the effort to ignore you!
As you all know, i have a pesky little cavernoma in my brain. Because of this I get severe headaches (including auras - they’re usually diamond patterned, very pretty). I’m on some pretty horrific medicine (not really), that i may or may not take like i’m supposed to. Well because of this I have decided i am going to implement a new food plan into my life based on the recommendation of my doctors, the internet and my desire to lose some of this luv chub i’ve gained. Here are the foods/beverages I wil no longer be consuming:
1. Chinese food. The past three times i’ve eaten it, i’ve woken up the next morning with the worst headache in the world. So i’m done with the stuff. No more delicious fried rice, no more sweet crab rangoons, no more fried chicken. This one doesn’t seem like a hard one to give up, but seeing as me and Justin’s favorite restaurant is a chinese food buffet (that also serves Italian, American and Japanese food!!!), this could prove to be tricky.
2. Alcohol. Thank God for all of those nights in college when i either wanted to: vomit, hook up with nasty people because i was too intoxicated to know any better, and/or passed out on random benches. I feel like i’ve enjoyed the stuff and am ready to move on. I haven’t had a single class of alcohol in…… 2 weeks… but before that it had been like 3 months. And it’s been like 10 months since I was last drunk. This will not be a hard one to give up at all because basically Me + Alcohol + Medication = Dead. Soooo I think i’ll be able to stick by this one.
3. Moutain Dew, Coca Cola, maybe even Sprite. I read today that soda is reallly bad for people that have what i have. It’s not because of the caffeine (so i can still drink plain tea and stuff), but the combination of caffeine and a load of sugar can trigger auras! Also, dramatic changes in blood sugar can trigger headaches. I know Sprite doesn’t have caffeine added, but it’s still really sugary, so i’m done with it! Anyone who knows me, knows of my love for Mountain Dew.. so this will be a hard one.
4. Ramen, Lean Cuisine meals, anything that has a butt load of sodium. Sodium = headaches. That simple. So what does this mean for me? Well i’m probably going to have to learn how to cook now. Or at least make Justin learn and have him cook dinner for me every night. I think i’ll go with the second option.
5. Carbs. Ok, ok , ok.. this doesn’t cause headaches, but i’ve gained a lot of weight lately and i think it’s because of me and Justin’s love for restaurants. Particularly Friendlys and Chadbournes (an awesome breakfast place in my town). I really need to stop eating millions of quesadillas and pasta and bread.
6. Soy based products?? The verdict is still out on this one. My PCP (who is the best PCP to ever exist, she does everything for me) sent me this article about how soy isn’t really the bad thing, but the fact that the majority of soy products have a lot of sodium in them. Like Soy nuggets, and boca burgers. Tofus ok.. but then again it doesn’t taste good unless i mix it with tons of crap that’s bad for me. Basically, i can never be a vegetarian again.
mmmm…That’s about it, but that’s a lot to change. I feel like overall i’ll be healthier and finally be able to get a grasp on these headaches.
I would also like to note that i keep spelling words in french. Like i spelled “Medicine” as “Medecin”. And when I went to go write “I”, I wrote “Je”. Very strange.
I knew i would be really bad at updating this thing. Ever since i graduated last year i have had zero interest in the internet. Maybe it’s because i stare at computers all day? By the time at get home at 6 (sometimes 7 or 8 depending on the day) my eyeballs feel like they are going to pop out of their sockets.
This has also caused me to watch zero hours of television a week. I haven’t seen a single episode of Gossip Girl this season..wtf?
In other news… I’m feeling anxious. And i think the only thing that would make me feel better is if i hopped on a plane right now and went some place. Seeing as i have to work at 8:30am tomorrow morning, that really isn’t possible. Moving to Florida cannot come soon enough for me. Maybe it’s because i work with some of the most pretentious Bostonians to ever exist, but i really need to get out of this city and come back in about 5 years when i can appreciate it again.
Things I am most looking forward to: Spending all of next weekend at home in NH and then spending lots of $$$ at Ikea on Monday! weeeeeee.
Justin and I have the Plague! Oh this is not fun. I am not really sure how i didn’t get it last year when i was surrounded by friends who got it about a bajill times (aka Manda, Darcy, youngins, etc), but yet get it this year when i have been mostly healthy (minus that little blood problem in my brain).
In other news, Justin leaves on his cruise today (what luck, he is sick AND it’s snowing!). I might die this coming week. Good thing i have a super cute cat to keep me company.
Justin and I adopted a new Kitty !!!!!!!!! His name is Pilot Asland Masten - Greeley and he is seriously the best cat ever!
Also, i know I have a cat addiction. Maybe I should go on that show “Celebrity Rehab with Dr Drew” .. mostly so I can date Dr Drew (don’t tell Justin) and also because i do not want to end up as cat woman living in a small dirty apartment with 30 cats. But seriously, i want all of you to meet Pilot because maybe with the exception of Pumpky and Marla, there has never been a better cat.
In other news.. Valentines day came and went. It was a good one. Justin did all the correct boyfriend things. He made me dinner (Lobster!), bought me flowers, made me the sweetest gift. It’s probably the best V-day i’ve ever had.
Me and mah flowerzzz! Also, that photo was totally not photo shopped ;-)
And finally, nothing is better than Americas Next Top Model. Now time to tend to my sick boyfriend. [the end]
