This is my spy name, I dont think its nearly cool enough to describe me.

Austin Powers: Jessica "Defiant" Paola

You play by your own rules and to heck with the consequences. Some might call you rogue, but you see yourself as a shade of gray refusing to be defined. Authority is for the weak and you will do everything in your power to overcome "The Man." Vital gear includes a black leather jacket, tattoo and brooding presence.

Little brother's have to be the cutest things ever. I have a wonderful conversation with the smallest of the Ramirez gang last night, and it was just really fun. Six year olds arent that bad really, they're pretty funny. It's also pretty amusing to hear Andy hold conversations with 8 and 6 yr olds, he says things like "we'll discuss this at a later time." I imagine they have a pretty good time playing with the old man. but yea, andy's little brother is adorable, he has a cute little lisp thing going on, and he's just really sweet. plus he asked me to visit and watch him play a basketball game. and he told me his birthday. i might even send him cookies, he's that cute.

i was searching my couch, (i lost a pencil) and i found an "i love jesus" keychain. i started laughing, hysterically. some how, magically, my couch produced an "i Love Jesus" keychain and all i know is that theres no way that its mine...any takers?
The following has been lifted from my brother's blog. eh, for amusement i'll place the things that specifically amused me in bold.

Jessica:

You have a love of travel and adventure, and you enjoy sports. You also have a very strong sense of fair play and want justice. You can be quite inventive and quite curious. You try to be prudent. You have good business acumen. You have a need to earn money to prove your success to society and must learn the true value of material gains and status. You are relatively demonstrative in your affections. You enjoy being stroked verbally and physically. You are clever, inventive, imaginative and youthful. You enjoy socializing. You have much enthusiasm with a driving attitude toward achievement in life.


Paola:


You don't fair well under inharmonious conditions. You are very peace loving. You can get very upset when you are frustrated. You have a need to be up front. You have a great deal of loyalty to those you love. You have much inner strength. You have a diplomatic flair to your nature. Equality and fairness are important to you. You have a need to be up front.


Abad:


You have much enthusiasm with a driving attitude toward achievement in life. You are a constructive thinker. You have a need for monetary security. You have a need to be up front. You have a discriminating nature coupled with perseverance and family pride.

---this is pretty amusing. discuss.

oh right so um yea...i got an F in a class i know I KNOW i got an A- in...like not like "I think I know the way" or "yea I saw this once on TV, trust me" but in the "HELL YEA I KNOW THEY'RE REAL", so yea, i was in happy gpa land and now i'm in "let me find my religion professor and make sure he fixes this"....augh....crazy...this is like the bad dream...no this is the bad dream, getting an F in a class where u knew u deserved something starting with an A and ending in a -....ugh.must call my advisor so i can fix this....i miss my old gpa....
oh i forgot to mention the best part, i got another ticket on the way home. for those of u keeping track at home...well u can tell me how many it is. my mom actually asked me that too after we were driving away from the state trooper, and i just started laughing to myself. we were both amused actually. but yea, i was making really good time, like we were in Edna, Texas and and i was going like 80something, mind u the limit was 65 at night, but my butt hurt from all the sitting and the faster i drove the faster i was to getting home, and at this point at the rate i was going by 11:30pm i would have been home and asleep, but yea, right around 10:30pm mr.state trooper stops me...and i was like "this is just great" now i'm and old pro at this so i just got out my license and registration and handed it to him. and he ask me if i knew how fast i was going (which is a pretty stupid question if u ask me) and i said (oh 70-80ish)...lol...yea, i'm laughing thinking about that. so he gives me a ticket,(going 78 in a 65) and my mom starts driving back, and both of us are bitching about how stupid that limit is, but the funny thing is that earlier in the trip i was going like 45 and my mom was like "why are u going so slow" and i was like "bc thats the speed limit" and she was upset, so for the rest of the trip i speed...so yea, my mom would have gotten a ticket if she had been driving too, so she wasnt mad. we just thought it was funny. and then she was fighting to keep 65 and i see some cops, so i start laughing and telling my mom i see some cops...my mom freaks out and thinks she's getting stopped and when she realizes she isnt she like slaps my knee where i have a bruise, which was also pretty amusing to me...oh best part, so now my mom and i both have to take defensive driving together...

but wait there's more!
here's the most important thing i have learned on this trip what not to say to Border Patrols at the checkpoint...when asked where are u from u do not i repeat DO NOT say to the border patrols "venezuela"...as soon as i said that i knew we were getting pulled over and searched...they wanted my passport, and there were like 4 agents around my car...i was amused by the whole thing, thinking to myself "i've lived here for 12yrs, believe me i'm not the one u need to search", so yea, for future reference when agents are looking at ur passaport do not look amused at the whole situation , my mom was afraid they were gonna deport us...lol...ahhh classic.
right so i went down to Mc Allen with my mom for the weekend, which for those of u not in Texas is like 5hrs from where i live 10min away from Mexico, and here are the things i learned:

1. McAllen=the border=Mexico
the percentage of hispanic ppl in the valley is like 95%, like anywhere u go ppl speak spanish, u rarely ever hear english, or at least i didnt.

2. (My mom + me)in a car * 5 hours =getting lost for about an hr
after being the car for like 6hrs with my mom and while both of us getting delirious on one another i realized that my family has a funny gift, whenever we go on vacation we cannot find the hotel. we just cant do it. my mom and i looked for our hotel for like a good 30min, (after calling the hotel for directions) and then we just got back on the freeway and retraced our steps we saw a HUGE billboard with directions to our hotel. it was pretty damn funny. oh and i also learned that my mom is one of those ppl that gets histerical when she gets lost, its reeeeaaallly funny in a sadistic kind of way.

3. I have learned the secret to talking to my mom
i can shhhh her, and we both think its funny. if i had known this years ago, i would have been a much happier person.

there's 2 things of note for today

1. my mom is paranoid, and its not cool
yea, i came home last night at like 11:20pm. Let's just remind ourselves that I'm actually a good kid, and next month I'll be 19. Almost grown. Almost. but yea, my mom is on this trip where she's being extra paranoid than normal (my mom is already paranoid) bc one of her friends' sons was killed in a car accident last week. Okay, i understand that, but its not like i really do anything that would harm me. so long story short, i got the car and went out to dinner, and drove around for a bit, and got in before like 12, and she's like "i'm not leaving u with the car anymore" keep in mind that i had the car all day and didnt do anything, and that we didnt actually get to dinner until around 9 bc i went over and took care of the dog. ugh. its really irritating being at my mom's. u get really used to being on ur own at school, and then u come home and ur mom wants u home.

2. having to prove i can answer phones is silly
yea, so my mom friends calls me about a job at a lawyer's office as a biligual receptionist. i'm like okay, cool, i'll call. so then i call and the lady on the other side of the phone is like "well have u ever worked in a lawyer's office before?" and i'm like "no but i've worked as a receptionist before" so she's like "well send a resume, and we'll schedule an interview" so now i'm playing with my resume trying to prove i can answer phones. yea, this is silly.

since my daddy is out of town, i have to go over to his house every night to feed the dog and walk him so he doesnt go crazy. I think last night he just kinda lost it, bc everytime i stepped outside the door my dog would start crying, i couldnt take it, so i took my dog over to my mom's pristine house. she just wanted me home so she was okay with it, but i knew that if the dog did anything to her white house that would be the end of it. so charlie was really happy to go someplace different, and not to be left alone.

jenny jones is just mean. that's like the trashiest of shows, its worse than jerry springer, which is sad.

junio 09, 2002

umm right, so i saw the Tyson/ Lewis fight last night, and i just felt bad for crazy little Tyson, I just wanted him to go crazy and make Lewis stop hitting him...but yea, that was sad.

umm also, going to shingdigs with people from high school just reminds me that i hated high school.

junio 06, 2002

i had a really cool day today. i went shopping with the always wonderful brentley, and i got myself some tank tops, and these really loud pants...yea, i own nothing like them...now the only thing is trying to figuare out what to wear with them and where to wear them to...but yea....i love being young.

oh but ihop is too much fun, sitting around with ur friends talking about nothing is also fun...i missed boys a lot.

junio 05, 2002

yea, so watching the baby never happened, the baby got sick and so alesh' stayed with her. but yea, i like cooking...i really missed that during the school year, its like 2 pm and i'm making myself breakfast, love that.

junio 03, 2002

haha! i get to watch a one year old tomorrow. normally i wouldnt be excited about it, but its not too often that ur best friend decides to spawn a smaller version of herself. me and kassady are gonna chill tomorrow, its gonna be great.
i think its amusing how my dad is changing his sleeping schedule for the world cup...

umm right so, theres nothing to do in houston, well nothing that doesnt involve going to the movies, or going out to eat, or going to rent a movie... yea....we need more stuff to do...

okay so i'm back online here, and i finally got my computer and everythings cool. The bastards at mail boxes etc. placed my already packed computer inside another box, even though i told them specifically to not do that. so i was ripped off basically, and the huge box was filled with packing peanuts, i hate those things. yea, so yea. my dad's house is like filled with boxes, and i'm getting really tired of soccer, and the world cup has just started...not cool.

but yea, i went out with charles last night and it was good to see him and just to see someone that i'm not related to. that made me happy.
