How do you handle phone calls from telemarketers?
I don't. I'm on the no call list =)
Do you buy products made locally? Is there anything made in your area that you love?
Ummm.. New England Clam Chowdah? Lol.
If you could make a magic wish for a futuristic gadget or high-tech innovation, what would your item do?

Oh gosh.. We pretty much have EVERYTHING. I guess something automated that will do my hair & makeup perfectly in the morning when I'm too tired to want to look appropriate.
What's something you bought, knowing it was a total waste of money?
Clothes I secretly knew I'd never be able to pull off, but 'had to have.'
Would you rather go back in time or visit the future?

Back in time totally!! I'd LOVE to live in the 50's duwop styled era, or the 80's. I could deal with the 70's too lol.
What's something you did when you were younger that you still haven't confessed to your parents?

The boys, the booze, the drugs.. Really I minimized all of it. Lol. Ahh God save me from having a daughter like me.
I wish it was Christmas. Well, more like Christmas Eve. My brothers will be here this weekend, but will be with our mother on Christmas day. I want to give my family their presents lol! I'm finally, completely, 100% done. I ended up panicking & buying the loverboy loserboy a pair of black Timberland boots last night. God, Zappos is a lifesaver.. FREE overnight shipping.. & LITERALLY overnight - no waiting.. I ordered them at 11:30pm LAST night, and they will be here tonight! I hope they are the right size.. oops! You better be a size 12 darling..
Atkins is going well. I'm seeing differences is my body! I fell off the wagon for about a week, but nothing EXTREME. I was pms-ing .. and wow the carb cravings came back harder than I've ever felt them. But as long as I didn't gain anything, it's fine! Christmas though, I AM getting a frappachino & eating some pie lol.
Other than that not much else has been up. Work still sucks. My grandmother decided not to co-sign on my school loans.. So who knows when I'll start college. I'm actually REALLY hurt about that..
Well, everyone have a happy holiday season!
Are you throwing or attending a holiday party this year? Any ideas/tips to share?
No! I'm skipping this year. I don't want to deal with family. Just my immediate (dad, brothers x 2 & gramma) will be eating together on Christmas Eve. LOW key. Just how I like it!
Can I just say that Carol's Daughter is a freaking lifesaver? Definitely some of her products are my holy grail for curly hair. ♥
In other news.. I'm waiting on admission news from UMass.. I KNOW I'll be accepted, I just want to get proof so I can hurry up & get the FAFSA over with.. I'm so dreading this.. I hope by the grace of god I'll get financial help.. But I know deep down my dad makes 'too much' .. That drives me NUTS that rent & living expenses aren't taken into consideration!! Especially in a place like Boston where everything is so fucking jacked up, even if you make a 'good' salary, you're still just making ends meet.. I'm stressing over it, but I really just want to get my ass in school.
So far I chose to do a bachelor's of Liberal Arts, English & Psychology concentrations.. I hope that's 'right' for me lol.. I have no clue what I want to do with my life! But english is great for everything, because all employers want someone with good communication skills.. & psychology I'm just taking for my own good. I'm intrigued. & I want to enjoy getting my education.
