| Happy birthday Tyra! |
[04 Dec 2007|03:34pm] |
I still want to post random things on here, like Answers.com's Fact of the Day b/c I like them and I think you might too :D
Today is Tyra Banks's birthday!
Spotlight: Happy birthday to supermodel and TV host Tyra Banks, who turns 34 today. Even supermodels dislike some things about their bodies. On the website of The Tyra Banks Show, Banks states that some of her least favorite body parts are her "skinny calves; skinny, flat feet; and the cellulite on the backs of [her] thighs." In November 2005, Banks put on a fatsuit and spent a few days as a 350-pound woman to see how differently she would be treated. She said that people she met during those days, including three blind dates, reacted more critically than she had imagined; Banks recalled the period as "the most heartbreaking days of my life."
Quote: "Take responsibility for yourself because no one's going to take responsibility for you." — Tyra

Dear everyone,
I am hereby giving up my LJ, and everything included in it. There's not really any rhyme or reason behind it, but I think I will journal in a paper journal from now on, and I'm not going to read your LJs either. I don't know if this will be temporary or permanent, but we'll see.
So farewell! See you guys later :)
<3 Theresa

I checked my Baylor admission status, and this is what came onto the screen:
"Congratulations Theresa! On behalf of President John M. Lilley, it is my pleasure to offer you admission to Baylor University. The group of students who will be entering Baylor with you in fall 2008 compose one of the highest achieving and most talented classes in University history. My colleagues and I commend you on the stellar academic accomplishments which have earned you admission to Baylor.
You will receive an official letter of acceptance in the mail within the next few days."
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Okay, it's not a very big surprise that I got into Baylor, but still! I'm ACCEPTED! Accepted! Into a college! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Yay for Baylor. LOL.

Sorry for my last entry being all discontent-ish! I hate being home for too long. Being home makes me too...weird. I mean like, I'm constantly dwelling on my own thoughts so then I start to get all depressed and stuff and that's not cool. BUT IT'S TOTALLY OKAY BECAUSE I went to Fenton's to work on our English semester project and we got our script done! Even though I don't really like how it's written, but that's okay. But yeah. I feel a lot better now. :)
Checking my email drafts, I found my New Year's Resolutions, and I am absolutely, positively DELIGHTED! to tell you that I have actually accomplished many on my list. ^ ^
New Year's Resolutions from January 1st, 2006:
1. Start exercising, like do a sport or something. < Working on it! I think my mom and I are going to start taking afternoon walks around the neighborhood.
2. Study hard and do well on SATs.
3. Eat healthier. < Yay for veggies, fruits, and organic soymilk! :D
4. Lose extra weight on face, belly, and thighs (goal = 100). < OMG did I really write that? I'm completely ashamed. Haha. Today, I weighed myself and I'm 105. YAY. But you know what? I don't want to care anymore. I'm healthy, for the most part. I'm trying to eat healthier and stuff and I'm not gaining 2938532 pounds a month, so...it's all good. :)
5. Be happier and not let things bother me so much. < This is something I'll always be working on. :)
6. Improve violin skills.
- Be concertmistress of Phil/get a solo. < Currently working on getting a solo on this piece called "Winter Soliloquy".
- Get into Chamber.
7. Kick butt at UIL Spelling.
- Beat Romero. < Accomplished!
- Be on top 3 team. < Ditto! :D :D :D :D
8. Survive junior year.
- Stop procrastinating.
- 87+'s on grades (no C's!!)
9. Find a job (during the summer).
10. Volunteer more.
- Go to the Atria more. < I'm working on finding rides b/c Deena can't take me; she's got early release now. :(
- Volunteer at the library. And hospital.
11. Find out more about colleges.
12. Narrow down future career possibilities.
13. Stop procrastinating and sleep more.
14. Apply for lots of scholarships.
15. Learn to play and kick butt at piano.
16. Improve at voice/choir.
- Voice lessons with Ms. Carla?
- Hit higher/lower notes.
- Actually go to rehearsal!!!
So it's mid-March, and I have accomplished FIVE things. :D *revels in the wonderful feeling of accomplishment* Okay I'm done. But seriously. I always forget my resolutions, and it makes me happy to know that I haven't forgotten them yet and that I'm working on them. ^ ^
OMG I JUST REALIZED THAT I GET TO USE THE LITTLE ACCOMPLISHED SMILEY! :D Which I *ahem* never use. ^ ^;;
Fenton is cool. <3
On a less brighter note (hmm I'm seriously doubting the phrase "less brighter". Haha), I didn't get any pie today. :( Oh well. Another day! (NO DAY BUT TODAY!) Hahahaha.
525,600 minutes - how do you measure, measure a year? How about love? :)
Hearts,
Bee/Theresa

'Ello darlings, and HAPPY PI DAY! 3.14159... :)
I want to DO something. Adrenaline's rushing through my veins!
Today, I shall be working on my Engly semester project with my group. Yay? Not quite. Hehe.
My room is in complete and utter chaos because I'm rearranging the organizational system of my bookcase. There are papers and magazine cutouts everywhere! But I love it. My room doesn't get messy that often.
I love cleaning my room. <3 It makes me happy. You know what else makes me happy? Organic soymilk and steamed broccoli. <3
Oh I just realized that it's been exactly one month after Valentine's Day! And my (dead) flowers are still in my room...BAD FENG SHUI! My mom keeps telling me to bring down my flowers, but I love looking at them and the card that says "Theresa, you make my world go round." :)
I've been having weird dreams lately. Shudder shudder.
All of a sudden, I don't feel so content anymore.
Oh dear goodness, I could smack myself. My horoscope for today: Ignore that pint-size demon trying to coach you into failure, because there's a pint-size angel on the other shoulder. Your meticulous nature forces you to listen to both sides. But let the good guy win!
But which one's the good guy?
Nothing you should worry about, I promise.
I don't really want to go back to the start, but I keep finding myself standing on Square One again. Tres frustrating.
Tra la la.
In other matters, I think I like LiveJournal's new rich text! There is strikeout. :) (Déjà vu, much? I think I've said this before.) I like strikeout.

I'm afraid that spring break is turning me into an obsessive LJ updater. Hahaha.
So Lena's birthday was lots of fun, even though I was like dead throughout half the whole thing. Yeah, next time we do one of these things, I'll be sure to get more than five hours of sleep. :) I love birthdays so much! <3
In other matters, my shoulders and the insides of my elbows (oh you know what I'm talking about - that joint in your arm) are totally SORE. I had absolutely no idea why b/c the most physical thing I had done with my arms yesterday was baseball with Sisterhood and that wasn't horribly rigorous or anything. But then I carried the groceries from the store to the car and I was like "OH YEAH I totally carried the 10-million-lb. cooler halfway to our picnic area in Meyer Park". Lol. I love how it takes me forever to figure out why I'm sore some days. :)
Rent is coool! I like it a lot better now. (I already posted this as a comment to M-gizzle's comment but that's k; I'll describe my RENT experiences here too. ^ ^) I watched it in dance (without subtitles) and I was like "What's going on?!" and wasn't too thrilled about it. Haha. But yesterday, I watched it with the Sisterhood (Tibby explained everything, so no more mass confusion, woo hoo!) and with subtitles (so much easier to understand what people are saying!). It was lovelyyyyyyyy! <3
| You scored as Mimi. You're Mimi! You're not much for rational thought, it seems, and you follow your heart more than your mind. You enjoy danger, and you can probably dance really well. You're older than you seem, and you probably put it all on the line for love. Take it easy on the wildness, but have fun with life!
Mimi | | 94% | Angel | | 88% | Maureen | | 81% | Collins | | 69% | Roger | | 69% | Benny | | 50% | Mark | | 50% | Joanne | | 38% | </td>
What RENT Character Are You?
created with QuizFarm.com |
Angel DumottSchunard
You scored 58% creativity, 66% monogamy, 42% conformity, and 57% optimism! |
You're Angel! If your friends all seem to adore you, it's because they do. You're a fun person to be around -- creative, loyal, original, and optimistic. You're a romantic, and always have a new view on life. You like longterm relationships, and if you haven't had one or aren't in one, you may be looking for true love. However, it's not an obsession, and you don't let it get you down. You like to live life as it comes. You're probably extremely open minded, and may have a diverse variety of friends. They probably like to be around you a lot, because you don't lie to them, but you do tend to look on the bright side of every event. You probably have a lot of ideas about how things could be better in the world, and you honestly believe that you and your friends can help get them accomplished. |
 |
My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:
|
You scored higher than 52% on creativity |
|
You scored higher than 86% on monogamy |
|
You scored higher than 72% on conformity |
|
You scored higher than 80% on optimism |
|
Hmm I think I like this one better. Angel is my FAVORITEST!!!!
Off to do something productive. :) Ta-ta, dears.

Bee
Ps. List of CD's that I want:

From my darling Esin:
Class Clown
You are 0% Rational, 85% Extroverted, 71% Brutal, and 57% Arrogant. |
You are the Class Clown. This means you walk down the center of the classroom with books on your head, while the teacher stares on in...
Shit, I really need to stop looking at these pictures while I'm typing.
Anyway, I MEANT to say that you are the Class Clown, and this means that you are extroverted, mean, and arrogant. You are not very rational, so you gravitate towards things that produce feelings or emotions over thoughts (like fart jokes or spitballs, for instance). You are also an extrovert and rather full of yourself, so of course you want constant attention for yourself and think you are somehow better than others. (Upon hearing the expression "you are full of yourself", you probably also slyly feel the need to ask women if they would like to be "full of yourself" too. I am assuming you have a penis. I often make that assumption, being fond of the penis.) You can also be a bit mean-spirited, and like a class clown you wouldn't hesitate to make a joke at someone else's expense, no matter how terrible it would make them feel. So your personality defects are that you have to be the center of attention, that you don't care about others, and that you are rather irrational and motivated by intuitions. Now stop walking around with those books on your head and sit down this instant! Or else I'll be forced to stand here, hands on my hips, doing nothing once again!
To put it less negatively:
1. You are more INTUITIVE than rational.
2. You are more EXTROVERTED than introverted.
3. You are more BRUTAL than gentle.
4. You are more ARROGANT than humble.
Compatibility:
Your exact opposite is the Robot.
Other personalities you would probably get along with are the Schoolyard Bully, the Smartass, and the Brute.
*
*
If you scored near fifty percent for a certain trait (42%-58%), you could very well go either way. For example, someone with 42% Extroversion is slightly leaning towards being an introvert, but is close enough to being an extrovert to be classified that way as well. Below is a list of the other personality types so that you can determine which other possible categories you may fill if you scored near fifty percent for certain traits.
The other personality types:
The Emo Kid: Intuitive, Introverted, Gentle, Humble.
The Starving Artist: Intuitive, Introverted, Gentle, Arrogant.
The Bitch-Slap: Intuitive, Introverted, Brutal, Humble.
The Brute: Intuitive, Introverted, Brutal, Arrogant.
The Hippie: Intuitive, Extroverted, Gentle, Humble.
The Televangelist: Intuitive, Extroverted, Gentle, Arrogant.
The Schoolyard Bully: Intuitive, Extroverted, Brutal, Humble.
The Class Clown: Intuitive, Extroverted, Brutal, Arrogant.
The Robot: Rational, Introverted, Gentle, Humble.
The Haughty Intellectual: Rational, Introverted, Gentle, Arrogant.
The Spiteful Loner: Rational, Introverted, Brutal, Humble.
The Sociopath: Rational, Introverted, Brutal, Arrogant.
The Hand-Raiser: Rational, Extroverted, Gentle, Humble.
The Braggart: Rational, Extroverted, Gentle, Arrogant.
The Capitalist Pig: Rational, Extroverted, Brutal, Humble.
The Smartass: Rational, Extroverted, Brutal, Arrogant. |
 |
My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:
|
You scored higher than 0% on Rationality |
|
You scored higher than 86% on Extroversion |
|
You scored higher than 83% on Brutality |
|
You scored higher than 63% on Arrogance |
|
Hmmm. This is pretty true. Haha. Even though it changes a lot of the time (of course).
Yay. I feel better now. Even though my parents think that I'm handling too much and that I'm not getting enough sleep (who does these days anyway?) and that I'll be sick. Boooo snarglesnorf. :)
But I will admit, I am sort of tired.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LENA!

My horoscope for today:
Whatever your outlet is -- sports, cooking, debate, writing, whatever -- you'll find an opportunity to dive in today. A whole cheerleading squad of friends and family will be there to push you to ever greater heights.
So true!!! I had/am having a busy busy day! Sigh. Global Meltdown decorating (elaboration later) was like...HARDCORE, man. I painted two flags and finished two other ones that were left unfinished by people who left. I was staying at school until 7 PM! And then did other random things helping out. Decorating is harder than it looks!!! And Lena birthday-ness = AHHHH! I've been so busy this week, I forgot to get a shirt until like now. Ahhh snoozy butt glue! (Um I have no idea where that came from.) Can't be in the Global Meltdown fashion show b/c I missed a mandatory rehearsal. I was at the dermatologist instead. I found out that I have eczema. Great. Now I'm on like 6 diff kinds of medication, as opposed to my normal four [kinds of medication]. "One more disaster I can add to myyyyy generous...supplyyyyyyy!" :)
Saw parts of Rent in dance. It's weird. Why is everyone obsessed with it? Why is everyone obsessed with Anthony Rapp???? Yes, I think that they are all great and talented actors/singers and "Seasons of Love" is really good but hmm...maybe I just haven't gotten used to it fully yet.
Today was really weird. Full of surprises and planning for spring break and such. I haven't been this busy in so long, but I haven't had so many things on my mind either. Ummmm if this entry doesn't make sense, forgive me. I'm just using this as a sorting-out-my-thoughts in rambling form.
School today - lots of homework over spring break. AP exam form due when I come back. Empty check that I have yet to fill out!!! Journalism layouts due on Tuesday. Orchestra solo tryouts on Tuesday (oh god please let me get this. Please please pleeeeeeease!). Ummm what else ...oh CHEMISTRY! Surprise, I got NO points back on my thermochem test corrections! I got a 60 on that test originally and it's sticking. ;_; Sooooo that means I have to completely ace this Ch. 17 & 18 Solutions test. Ahhhh! Algebra. Need to do a week's worth of hw.
Tibby just called and she's coming to pick me up. Ahh!
To make a long story short, I got home at SEVEN PM b/c I had to decorate for Global Meltdown Hype Week after Spring Break for like 4-5 hours. And yeah you read that right; I spent TWELVE WHOLE HOURS at school today and I'm completely exhausted. And then I had to make dinner yay and now I'm going to get things straightened out for Lena's birthday tomorrow.
Happy sweet 16, Lena!!! :)
Oh crap I need to organize LWA and wrap HHKB's and Lena's locker. Sorry you guys!
Tonight:
- Get/make shirt for Lena
- Tibby's house for spiral ness
- Write Dad's paper
- Make mix CD
- Shower
- Sleep hopefully at 12 AM
- Wake up at SIX AM on a freaking Saturday morning. ;_; Leave house at 6:50 AM; get to St. Mary's seminary for choir warmup at 7:30 AM; Mass at 8 AM
- After Mass, find out a way to do Lena stuff. Yay.
With love,
A Very Busy Bee (hardy har har)

| You Should Weigh 155 | 
If you weigh less than this, you either have a fast metabolism or are about to gain weight.
If you weigh more than this, you may be losing a few pounds soon! |
Bahaha. I bet that's because I eat a lot of unhealthy food. :P I'm glad I weigh less than 155, though. ^ ^
So today, I had a truly amazing day. Everything went right, for the most part. EVERYTHING. It was uncanny!!! Out of 5 stars, I definitely had a 5.5 star day. :) Hehe.
Woke up at 6:52 AM. It was glorious, sort of. I had to rush to get out of the house of course, but it was lovely sleeping in. :)
Journalism - Was tardy, but we had a sub b/c MRS. A. WASN'T THERE!!!!!!!!!! Ahem. I actually really like Mrs. A. but I don't like the way she teaches. Haha. So today we basically copied down vocab and Deena gave me the brownies that she was going to give her baseball player (she's a Diamond Doll!). They were messed up and hard, but brownies nevertheless. Oh, and she also gave me some malt balls. :) Chocolate for breakfast = AWESOME.
World History - Had reading time. Mr. Whitaker called me down to his office!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had a COMPLETE heart attack, he was so scary: "You have too many tardies. Shouldn't you be in ISS?...and what's this I hear about you kissing some boy?"
Me: O____O NOOOOOOOO ISS! MY LIFE IS OVERRRRRRSELFJSJKSAJDSA!
Whitizzle: How bout a letter jacket instead?
Me: O____O ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
Whitizzle: Well, your name's Theresa Vu, isn't it?
OMGGGGG. Scariest/happiest moment of my LIFE! I finally got my letter jacket that I ordered like TEN MONTHS AGO. LOL. HAPPINESS ABOUNDS!!!!! I put it on in the bathroom and then went back to History, where everyone just turned and stared at me. The attention was lovely. Tehe! And then more history stuff. I <3 Mrs. Head. YAY!
English - I gave my speech! Fenton and Ariel liked it and Mrs. Simmons kept smiling at me. :D !!! I was really really nervous so I just smiled a lot. I think smiling makes my world go round - every time I smile, it seems to make things better. And people smile back and that makes me feel better, which keeps the smiles going! Woo hoo. :) Yup. So I pretty much smiled throughout the whole speech and it DID make things better. :D I think I did well on my speech!!!!!
Algebra - Got a 70 on yesterday's quiz, which is a relief b/c I thought I totally failed it. Haha. Barely passing quizzes...yesssss. Ah well. Only 5%! Yup. Today was a pretty neutral class - did not make things better or worse (though I do have a test tomorrow).
Chemistry - Did lab. I wasn't stuck with Rocky!!! YAY for Brianna being there. She's actually not too bad. :) Lab was not bad. Another neutral class.
Lunch - Oscar and Lizzie were there b/c of precal test! <3
Dance - Continued doing modern dance. I LOVE stretching. I'm good at it!! :D I <3 this class. It boosts my self-esteem. ^ ^
Orchestra - Paid off my Corpus trip! Yaaaay! Fell asleep but still played well. I was sleeping and then all of a sudden I had to wake up and play this "allegro moderato" section and I NAILED that sucker. :D Was awesome!!
After school - Spelling tryouts!! I was so nervous and I sincerely thought I failed!
Home - More college mail and food and practiced for violin test tomorrow. :)
Choir rehearsal - Sandizzle and Lena called!!!!! BETCC IS BACK IN THE SPELLING WORLD, BABY!!!!!!!! WE TOTALLY BEAT ROMERO :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That totally made like the rest of my day. Scores: Brittand 92; me 84; Keestal 78; Lena 77; Romero 75. YESSSSS WHO PWNS SPELLING?! Brittand, of course. But I'm SECOND! SECOND! SECONDDDDD YESSSS OMG LSFJADLSAJFL. :) *sighs* I finally beat Keestal and Lena. Yay! OH and another happy thing: 84 was my score at STATE last year. And now I'm getting an 84 on tryouts a month before district?! Yeah. I rock. *revels in spotlight*. Okay I'm done now. :) But yeah. Sandizzle told me that while rehearsal was just starting and I threw my arms up and yelled "GOD LOVES ME!" really loudly. Everyone turned and stared and I of course enjoyed the attention. It was LOVELY. The spelling scores, I mean. :D YAY BETCC #1 IN STATE THIS YEAR! *knocks on wood* ^ ^ Anyway choir was great as always. I love being in choir because Ms. Carla loves me and I'm a soprano 1. :) That means I get to do all the descant parts and stuff! Hitting high notes makes me so happy. ^ ^
Came home and went to Doneraki with fam! Twas lovely, even though I only had a salad w/ shrimp. It was a good salad! Eating salad makes me feel better about myself (don't think about the dressing...) hehe! And now I'm home and I wanted to share my 5.5 star-ness with you. Maybe one day when I'm feeling sad, I can reread this entry and it might make me feel better. ^ ^

7. Angel - Shaggy
8. Lust A Prima Vista - The Spill Canvas

Yay. :) Hmm, 9 is an odd number. Let me think of another song to make it 10.
10. Hate Every Beautiful Day - Sugarcult
I love that song! Pessimistic, yes, but good music nevertheless :) YAY. Well, it's 9:23 and I have a ton of work that needs to get done soooo bye! And thanks for reading. I just realized that I never really thank people for reading my LJ because Idk...it's like there are ten million other websites out there you could be looking at but instead, you're looking at mine and reading my silly long entries on random things. :) I LOVE YOU!!!!
<3 Theresa/Bee :)
she's cold and she's cruel, but she knows what she's doing

Today at dinner, I just realized how amazing my family really is and how much I love them, no matter how much I complain about them. But hey, I figure I'm entitled to sometimes dislike them, considering they're the people I live with 24/7. :)
I love my family. I LOOOOVE my family! They are so cool in so many ways.
Me: today I was eating dinner with my brothers, and I realized how much I really really love them and how incredibly lucky I am that they don't bother me so much and aren't annoying little brats from Hades like a lot of brothers are. I loooove my brothers!
Me: I love eating dinner with them, because that's like our bonding time. If you sat in during dinner with us, you would be like completely lost, because when I'm with them, I'm a completely different person - I'm a tomboy again, chewing with my mouth open, singing with pizza in my mouth, laughing atrociously loud, and other obscenities that I dare not show the world. My brothers are so cool that I can be comfortable around them. haha.
Me: Like today, my mom was like, "VINCENTE! YOU NEED TO DRINK SKIM MILK!" and I was like "why" and she was like, "because he's too fat!"
Me: so I asked him how much he weighed, and he weighs 75 lbs for a 10-year-old, which I personally don't think is bad
Me: and I don't really know what happened, but I picked up Vincente and everyone was laughing and I ran to the couch and dropped him on it
Me: and then I did that with Embo, though he definitely tried to resist
Me: hahaa
Me: and then I was laughing and tried to pick up Joseph, who is like 82 lbs for a 12-year-old but couldn't because I was laughing so hard
Me: oh, it was great
Me: plus, I found out that Joseph made some super awesome math team and he beat out a lot of the 8th graders and he is cool and will be on some sort of math team competing in some super awesome competition. hehe yup. He's a smartie pie, and I'm really proud of him :-)
Me: so then he was talking about how the other schools' math teams suck and he mentioned this girl, Minh, that he had an elementary school crush on for the LONGEST TIME
Me: lol and then my mom and I immediately poked fun at him, because that's what we do to Joseph. Hahaha. When he's embarrassed, he just grins like a really big grin and it's just so adorable
Me: and my mom was all "Minh is history" and of course, this is where I break into song: "I'm too sexy for my shirt, too sexy for my shirt" and I was doing it in a low, cool voice and stuff
Me: my mom just like CRACKED UP and it was hilarious.
Me: sigh. My family is so cool.
I'm going to do one of those love things right now for my family, because a lot of times, I think that I really don't love them and now is a good time because we're all happyish. Yay!
Daddy: I love you so much! I love how hardworking you are and I love that you put your wife and kids before yourself (oh goodness I'm tearing up. LOL. I hate thinking about how awesome my dad is because then I always feel sort of bad that he has to like build his life around us. You know? Like, he could just up and leave just like other people, but he doesn't because he wants us to have a better life than he did. !!! Okay, continuing). I love how you changed jobs at least four times just so you can find a better income to support all of us. I love how you're here for us whenever we need you and you always comfort me just when I need it. I love how I inherited sooo many of your traits; it's ridiculous how alike we are in personality! I love your hugs! They always make me feel so safe. And I love that you wake me up in the morning, even though that is the most ridiculous and hardest chore anyone could ever take. LOL. I love how you style your hair in the morning and then the bathroom always smells like hairspray. Hahaha! I love how hard you study so you can get a degree and support us. I love how you think I'm important and I love how you let me have a say in family decisions, like when we were looking for a house. I love that you got me into feng shui!! That is so cool beyond words. I love how supportive you are of me when it comes to college and high school and stuff. I love that you trust me because you know that I know what I'm doing (some of the time). I love that I sit at your right hand at the dinner table and how you know that I love attention and I love how you give it to me whenever you know I need it. I love how you comfort me when Mommy gets into one of her bad mood swings and I love how you try to help me out with algebra homework but it never works. :D I loooove you, Daddy!
Mommy: I love you. I love how random your mood swings are. LOL. Again, it's ridiculous how alike we are. My mood swings are just as bad as yours. Haha. I love when you're in a good mood and when I'll call you after school because I missed the bus, you're like "Okay honey, I'll be right there *smile smile*". I love that. I love how you know pretty much everyone on the planet because they're related to you somehow. I love how when we go to the market, you have to say "Hello, how are you?" to at least one person you know. I love our supermarket bonding times! Omg, those are the greatest. I love how much you spoil your children and how you buy more junk food than healthy food because you want us to be happy (but fat. LOL. Mommy...I will never understand you. :P) and content. I love how soft you are when I hug you. Oh, and how could I forget your sweet sense of style?! ^ ^ I love it when you shop with me, even though you telling me what to buy gets annoying sometimes. But I love that you buy me stuff even though we're like dying. LOL. (Well, we haven't really gone shopping in the past couple of months, but that's okay.) I love how when you get dressed for church or a dance or some other important event, you always consult me before leaving the house. Haha. It keeps me happy. :D And I love that you wear whatever I tell you to wear because you know I have an eye for style. I love how you can't bear to let me out of your sight...even when I'm at Lena's for a sleepover, I love how you call before you go to bed and I love how much you worry that I'll get raped because I am a girl and how you always tell me to stick with someone. Even though I may seem annoyed at your constant worrying, I'm glad you do because I know you do it out of love. Also, I love how you are the only other female in the family. Goodness. If I had a sister, all of us females would be constanly vying for power and attention! Aiya. I'm glad that you let me have a say in what's going on with the family and you tell me things that Daddy won't let you tell me. LOL. <3 I love you Mommy!!
Francis/Hydles: I love you so much, but you'll never know how much!!!!!!!!!! (Cue in my tearing up. LOL.) I love how close we are, even though I tried to kill you when you were only 10 days old. :X Believe me, I regret EVERYTHING I did to you when I was little. I'm sorry I was so vicious to you! I know that it wasn't your fault that you were given birth and it's not your fault you needed more attention than me at the time. Okay. I love how you give me attention whenever you know I want it and I love how HUMBLE you are. You completely balance me out and you are my BESTESTESTEST guy friend any girl could want to have. I love how amazing you are at viola and orchestra, and I love how you actually work for everything. I love how you'll be the one to tell me that I need to do my homework. Ironic, much??? Yes. Thank you for being responsible for me. Omg I have SO MUCH to thank you for, but my pride as a big sister is keeping me from saying it. LOL. I love how you always stand up for me when my other brothers are complaining about my usage of the computer. Haha. I love how much you believe in me! No one else could ever be so devoted to someone (oh, there you go, telling me to do my homework again...! Haha). I love you so much! Thank you for being there for me when I needed someone to talk to, and thanks for understanding even all my silly boy troubles with Vincent and Fenton and Kwan and all of them. Haha. Thanks for covering for me all the time. I love how you really really understand me and let me do what I want. I love how you are SO BRILLIANT. And I love how you copy everything that I do and how concerned you are about college and stuff. I love how popular you are and I love how I know a lot of the girls in your grade have a crush on you! I wouldn't blame them; you're so lovable! I love how you try to be the best at everything, and I love how you succeed. You are a WONDERFUL, wonderful person and Mommy and Daddy are SO lucky to have you as a firstborn son (more tearing up). I love you so much, and I hope you get to know this before the either of us dies. Hehe. I love you!!!!
Joseph: I love how sweet and sour you can be. I love how you are just. Like. Me. LOL. The personality resemblance is UNCANNY. You are such a perfectionist, sharp, and fiercely loyal to your loved ones. Oh, and the OCD. Yeah. You and I have the worst OCD! Hahahaha. I love how well you do in school and how committed you are to it! I love how cuuuute you are! :D I love how, even though you aren't as musical as the rest of us are, you make the best grades. You are AMAZING. I love how slowly you eat - even slower than ME, which is nearly impossible, but hey, you're good at achieving the impossible (another thing I love!). I love how you stick to your ideas, even though you are sometimes wrong, but you're pretty proud too. I love how you make weird squawking noises when no one notices. But I notice, because I do that too. :P Again, the personality resemblance = just like me. Haha. I love you!!!
Vincente: I love how you are the "black sheep", academically, in our family. You may be in regulars classes now, but I know that you are crazy smart. I love how when you came home today, I asked for a hug and you gave me one. You're so cute! Even though you don't make the best grades (it's okay; I don't either), you surpass us all in games and music. You are PHENOMENAL at the piano and you surprise me all the time at how quickly you pick it up. I love how amazing you are in video games, and I love how you are the best at it and can beat every- and anyone. I love how weirdly random you are. Haha. Never fails to amuse me. Bottom line: you are amazing in everything that we're not, but you pay the price for being weak in everything that we are. Some people may look down on you, but I'll always look up and remember how differently your mind works. <3 I love you so much!!!
Embo: Sigh. So many things I can say! Who knows where to start? I love how cute you are, and how when everyone sees you, they gawk at your cuteness. LOL. I love seeing you grow up, especially since you are just like me, even more than Joseph. You are pretty much Theresa The Second, only you're a boy and I'm not. LOL. Your personality is no different than mine in ANY way. You're greedy and selfish but loving and caring and sweet and you know how to work peoples' nerves, but you also know how to charm them. I love how you learned this so early in life like me! Tehe. You're so charismatic; people are just drawn to you. I see myself in you, and you surprise me every day. Every time you do one little thing, I find myself thinking, "I remember doing that" or "I would have done that the exact same way!" It is SO weird seeing yourself grow up, I swear. I love how everyone spoils you and how I'm trying to correct everyone (as amusing as it is to see myself grow up, there are some things in me that I don't want in you, but Mom and Dad and brothers don't really get that. LOL) but no one ever listens to me. Haha. You'll see, someday! I love how close in personality, spirit, and mind we are and I love how easily I understand you. I love how easily you pick things up and I love that you know how to read and everything. I know that someday, you will make Mommy and Daddy and me and your brothers so very proud. You have brilliance in you and I have no doubt that you will harness it to the best you can make it! I love you so much!!! (Hehe, I feel a bit guilty about writing this paragraph about Embo, since 99.99999% of it is what I love/hate about me too. LOL.)
Deep breath! Haha. Wow. I never realized how much I really love my family. :) So much mushiness!
Okay, well that's it for today. It's taken me sooo long just to write this. Haha.
By the way, I'm not sure who I've written a love paragraph for, since some I posted as a reply to your paragraphs on your blog...so. If you want one, leave a comment and let me know. Thanks! :)
Before I go, I want you to think about how much YOUR family means to you. I know a lot of people aren't really satisfied with their families, but keep in mind that you actually have to live with them like 24/7, and bad things sometimes happen. Haha. Like, if I lived with the Sisterhood, we'd probably get into lots of fights and whatnots...but we don't so yay. LOL.
Time to do something academically productive! Hehe. ;)
Love, Theresa

Oh oh oh I wrote a poem!
oh darlin would you please just -
shut your mouth and don't say it
(love is such a dangerous word)
you look stupider and stupider
in my eyes
how could you ever love someone
like i love him?
(and in such short a time)
the answer is you couldn't
no, you could never match me in love
oh darlin would you please just -
just shut up.
because things like love take time to develop
oh darlin, let me tell ya -
love is patient
so don't rush things
oh darlin, what have you been through that makes you think you're in love?
oh darlin, when you've been through some of the things i've been through
maybe you'll know
what
love
really
is.
:) I like it. I was inspired!
