So, this is Robert. He's half Samoan, half American. And holy eff, he's gorgeous in real life! <3

Joe, my Samoan friend, is now friends with him and when he talks about him, I always asked who Robert was and he told me that it's this new guy that is transferring his records to our church. (So excited!) Robert has his bachelors degree in "Exercise Science" in a university in Utah. He's very active in the church like his father (ooooh yeeeah) and he's single but all the girls around him have a huge crush on him. He's 24, and hasn't done his mission yet so he's totally off limits for a while. Damn it. But he's trying to get Joe to go to the gym and Joe wants me to come along and prepare myself even more for BMT. And I'm thinking in my head, "If Robert is the trainer, haaaaaaaaaaayl yes."

And when Joe talks about renting a room at Robert's house, Joe immediately says, "NO SIS. YOU CANNOT COME OVER AND SEE ROBERT." even when I didn't say anything! All I ever said was when I finally knew who Robert is was that he was "handsome" which is the truth but I'm not like, "OMG, MARRY ME AND GIVE ME MORMON KIDS!" like the other girls.

But he is gorgeous in real life, especially in his suit and tie. He finally found a job at a MMA gym and he lives not too far from me. Ugh~ I wish I could grab me a man like Rob.

Where To Begin...

041312: I decided to hang out with my neighbor since he was needing to find an apartment to move into. He was thinking of moving out to Los Angeles because the apartments are bigger and better but a little more expensive and he was looking into Koreatown. (MMMM, Korean BBQ) But it was raining so much! It was crazy and the weather was like, 40~45 degrees! And we didn't have an umbrella so we were talking through K-Town in the rain and when we saw the apartments, it was either that the lobby man was a jerk and we couldn't see the apartments or at least have a floor plan or the apartments were just ugly. So we made a trip out there for nothing, really... And we were stuck in traffic for hours. It took us like four hours to get home. It was soooo bad it took us an hour and a half to just drive six miles. HORRIBLE. And it was the "phantom traffic" which is the kind of traffic that's the worst for no reason; no accidents, no blood, no horror... Just traffic because people drive slow. But, since it was raining, I told my neighbor that it was "pizza weather" so we arrived home, cleaned up his place a bit, changed Salome's kitty litter, took Ivy out, bought some pizza and wings and watched "Training Day". Good day, even though my butt was sore.

041412: Today was a eventful day. The morning was a little rough, I woke up on the wrong side of the bed but it was good when I went to the Museum of Science with my churchmate Joe. (he's the Samoan guy that baptized me) and we also stopped by Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles which is really good~ It's good old fashion soul food for your soul. Homemade waffles, some good fried chicken, collard greens, homemade chili on fries and more chicken bits, and some good cold coke. I'm sorry but that's some good sh*t. It's so good, you better come in with your pants unbutton because they are no joke! But the museum of science was amazing, I learned a lot about the universe and the earth and even ourselves. (even though I already knew, it's good to refresh) and the next time we go, we're going to go to the Museum of Natural History. I CAN'T WAIT! And now, I'm home, uploaded all the stuff on Facebook and I'm food as heck right now with a bunch of left-overs. I'm excited to go to church... I miss everyone. I feel like I haven't seen them in forever! But I came home with tension and it's weird. My best friend is crying, her boyfriend is stoned and she's in the bathroom, crying and I really need to go number two. I might have to ask my neighbor if I can use his bathroom. LOL. I hope not.

Sigh, now I have to get changed and situated before bed. I got church tomorrow! :)

Otter

Eric Benet - Pretty Baby

UGH! I just heard some new beats of Eric Benet~ I think he's coming out with a new album soon! Once I heard his voice after years of not listening to any of his music when he use to be my favorite, I started to get this urge to listen to his songs. This song, "Pretty Baby", is one of my favorite songs~ I use to listen to him before I go to sleep, I'd pop a CD in my CD player, put the volume real low, relax and listen to it while I fall asleep in a good mood. Most of his songs really put you in a mood for sum'sum if you know what I'm talking about though. Haha. He's so handsome. Sigh. Still gorgeous, yummy and sensual as ever.

Oooo baby,

If The Book of Mormon Was Made Into A Movie...

Honestly, to those who haven't even read the Book of Mormon, if they were to see this trailer on their TV screens or as an ad while streaming videos talking about how this is the new upcoming movie... I bet you that you will be in line when it comes out.

There's no doubt about how epic this would be to watch! I actually wish someone would make a movie about the Book of Mormon as epic as this!

And for those who did and is reading the Book of Mormon would agree that the stories in the Book of Mormon are pretty epic and this is as close as it'll get when you imagine the epic-ness that comes with the book! And you know you can't help but smile about it! :)

Personally, Mel Gibson as Nephi... Meh, it doesn't cut it for me but Eric Bana as Mormon?! PERFECT! And Brad Pitt as Captain Moroni (Mormon's son)?! UGH, yes! (Even though I'm not a really a fan of Brad Pitt)

If you're interested in the movie clips that were shown in the video:
___________? (King Benjamin)
Braveheart (Nephi; Mel Gibson)
First Night (Helaman; Richard Gere)
Gladiators (Gidgidoni/Russell Crowe)
Troy (Mormon; Eric Bana. Captain Moroni; Brad Pitt)
Last of the Mohicans (Alma the Younger; Daniel Day Lewis)

Mormon-y,
Otter

Bible Study-Ish With Indigo.

(Discusses things in the Book of Mormon and in the Bible with Indigo)
Otter: In 2 Nephi, "Stem of Jesse", why is "Jesse" referred to Christ?
Indigo: Remember the house of Israel? What was his name before it changed?
Otter: Isaac?
Indigo: Right. And what were his sons name?
Otter: I forgot...
Indigo: Jesse is the father of David. David being King David, of the house of Judah.
Otter: Oooh. Sigh. Confusing.
Indigo: My advise is just skim over 2 Nephi, because to understand Isaiah, you need to read the Old Testament.
Otter: Sigh, that means I have to read the first half of the Bible.
Indigo: Yes.
Otter: So I'll just go back to it later then?
Indigo: Yes. Even I have a hard time with it.
Otter: I think the Bible was made to read over and over again.
Indigo: Well, it was meant for Jews.
Otter: (laughs out loud until stomach hurts) I don't know why that made me laugh so hard!
Indigo: Me neither. Kinda hurts.
Otter: Yes, I'm hurting right now!
Indigo: Stop it
Otter: I can't!
Indigo: Stop!
Otter: I can't!
Indigo: You must!
Otter: Noooooooooooooooo~!!!
Indigo: Yes!
Otter: Okay. I'm done. :)
Indigo: Gah
Otter: Bah
Indigo: No
Otter: Snow
Indigo: Where
Otter: Somewhere...
Indigo: Over the rainbow?
Otter: If you can get pass the armed unicorns...
Indigo: And the angry mushrooms.
Otter: You can't forget those! They're hardcore. :(
Indigo: But delicious
Otter: I've never had one before.
Indigo: They're very good in hotpot.
Otter: Mmmm, sounds yummy~
Indigo: Oh yes
Otter: Can Jews eat them too?
Indigo: No. None for them.

LOL! How did we get here?!,
Otter

Break The Fast was LOL.

So remember the geek that liked my Star Wars t-shirt? His name is Skyler.

He's a book person. He knows every trivia question about Harry Potter and he knows so many movies that no one knows of. He's very attentive and loves to talk about... Boy stuff. He was also an extra in the first "Bring It On" movie! Lol. I like him. He's hilarious! And this is why:

(Eating together for break the fast and talking about movies, trivia and other stuff and everyone ends up having their own conversations with each other)
Skyler: So... Otter... Where do you live?!
Me: (stunned) What? (LOL)
Skyler: Yes, I want to know where you live.
Me: I live on Blaine St.
Skyler: Oh okay. Good. I know that place. I know where you live now. I know where you sleep... In a bed, right?!
Me: Yes. Well, now that you know where I live. I will be waiting for you.
Both: (LOL-ing)

Justin made some brownies that we weird and for some reason, when people ate it, it tasted funny. Some people said it taste like it was stale, some said it tasted like death, and Skyler... Said it tastes like soap! But after Skyler ate it, he went to go get more but instead of coming back with just one... He came back with the whole metal tin! And started sharing it with people but I think it made it looney because he became Skyler(squared). LOL!

I love church,
Otter

FHE-aftermath and A JOB?!

FHE (Family Home Evening): The best FHE I've ever been to so far! When I arrived at church, I saw the guys grilling the meat for our dinner that they will be serving us! So all the girls gathered together and we had a little lesson from Courtney about how we can do little things that will make us become more prophesied. And then after, we all went into our church's gymnasium and we had three tables set up for us, covered with paper and we all sat down as we waited. And I was standing awkwardly because I wasn't sure where I wanted to sit so I sat with all the "weird" people from our church (and they are my kind of 'weird', too) and we all realized we had pens and I had a marker! So we all ended up doodling on our table while we waited. When we were called first to get our food, we got all the good stuff and I guess the guys piled on the stuff for us because when we went back to the table to eat it, we all didn't know how to close the burrito! LOL. We we're all struggling to eat it but it was fun. And our table played a lot of games that we usually played in elementary school and we were the table that was laughing the most. A lot of people were jealous that they couldn't join but I thought it was funny how our side of the table was filled with doodles and the other half was plain white. LOL. After FHE, Derek was going to drive me home but we decided to hang out with the other churchmates at Dairy Queen. We saw Courtney, Sam, Sam's girlfriend (not sure what her name is), Immanuel, Daniel and Christian. It was fun... A little boring but fun. Haha. Then I went home and crashed into my bed at 12am.

Today: So today, I wake up and do my usual routine and I spoke to my mom on the phone for a little bit and I texted my second father (Mr. Reed; my best friend/roommate's father) and told him that I was leaving for BMT on June 19th, and he texted me back saying that he was so happy, excited and proud of me and he gave me some advice as well. When I got off the phone with my mom, I realized I got a text from Blue Fox! He said, "What you doing?" and I texted an hour after because I didn't even know he texted me. And then my friend Tracface called me and told me that she saw on the Penny Saver (a booklet you receive in the mail for free about places you can save money and sometimes they have job offers) and I saw that there's a place hiring people who knows how to operate a forklift and it says that even if you don't know how, you can be trained and it is allowing everyone to go! SO, I went and I realized that there was a fee of $35. So for me to train for the forklift, I need $35 but the manager is suggesting that I should do two machines to insure that I get the job and that's $70 but he is giving it to me for $35. AND THEY PAY $10~$15 her hour! So I went to apply and he said that I can come tomorrow at 10am and pay the fee and start the training! So I'm excited. But as I was on my way to apply, I texted Blue Fox and told him that I was on my way to a job thingy and asked what he was doing but he didn't reply (yet). I texted him on Saturday, asking if he has any plans and it took him forever to reply, but when I went to a business meeting, he finally replied saying he was partying with his team (and I don't think it's the partying we all think it is because Blue Fox doesn't even drink)

Turtle, indeed my life is a little more cheerful and a lot of opportunities came up and things are going swell ever since I was baptized as a Mormon. A lot of people were telling me not to do it because Mormon's are "stupid", "dumb", "weird" and "creepy" and I do admit that some Mormon's are weird but there are some good ones out there and the ones that I spent most of my time with are great people and I've met and became friends with a bunch of Elders who I know are going to be my friends forever. Ever since I became a Mormon, my life became so much better and I enjoy what I do. And I'm praying more often and I believe that God is answering my sincere wishes in my heart and is blessing me as long as I keep myself honest and sincere. And I can say this as a testimony.

Cheery,
Otter
