I need to establish an American Cupcake Day.

[azurite]

I'm not someone who just sits around and writes in LJ all day. Honest. I actually go to university. :P And today I got my 10-question Weather & Climate test back, along with my "midterm" (I guess?) paper on traveling from Crescent City across the state (describing the geographical features we'd seen on our way). I got a 80% on the first one, and a 14.5/15 points on the second. So it's not perfect, but I'm pleased. :)

o_o... would someone please tell me why I have 132 userpics? No, not really-- I only have 81, but there are 132 SLOTS. ;_; That's too many! I NEED MORE ICONS! (I don't have that many lying around... at least, not that many that I haven't used already and WANT to use again)

Too many people have birthdays in March. *shakes fist* And me without my rainbow-colored font colorizer. Maybe I'll take a page from crpsaiyan's book and make a massive monthly-themed birthday image and put everyone's name on it. :P

Speaking of birthdays and birthday-type food, does America have a Cupcake Day? I mean, we have National Craft Month and Hug Your Dog day (maybe?)... every day and every month is something; every color and pattern has some sort of significance. We're holiday-crazy. I want a Cupcake Day. mklutz says she had one on the anniversary of her school (founding, perhaps?) and they actually had a RAINBOW of CUPCAKES. Who the hell wouldn't want one of those? I've actually been (unreasonably) craving cupcakes for a while. Just one, delicious rainbow-cupcake, and I'd be a happy camper. In the meantime, CUPCAKE DAY, DAMMIT! Quite possibly on my birthday.

Hawaiian cupcakes? *shrugs* Why not?

Back to the fun that is Carmen Electra's Aerobic Striptease, I find it incredibly difficult to do that whole "wiggle" thing where you shift the top part of your body to the side, but without moving your hips or feet. As in, moving just your chest using your ribcage. o_o... This makes it harder to do the full body roll, because even though I can do the "Cat Cowl" thing, trying to combine all the moves into one causes me to become really short of breath, for some weird reason. But for everything else, I breathe just fine. I know I'll never be able to do the workout on Mondays, because I'm so busy, but I can do it for the rest of the week.

Scott finally "guessed" (I dropped about 10 tons worth of hints; sometimes that boy is so adorably dense) about what I'd got, and he was pleasantly 'surprised.' He was working out too, to build up his own endurance (and for me, he said. That makes me giggle). So now we're "even." He's definitely coming up here for Passover now, just to see if he can get a sneak preview of me supposedly knowing how to striptease. *laughs* something tells me I'm going to turn into a potted plant and not be able to do it without looking stupid.

When I have some free time:
* Get a wireless card
* Move everything around/clean for Passover (since I won't be here during Spring Break)
* Finish up my scholarship applications
* Finish up my 5 on-hold fics for 30kisses - "Kaiba the Virgin Sacrifice," "Girls' Club", "Sight Unseen," "Voice," and "Someone Else's Wife." Just by looking at the titles, which TWO would you want to read the most? (atlantian_magic, if you read this, your choice is important. It's your birthday coming up, and I wanna give you a fic. :P)
* Layouts? Everywhere (LJ, seventh-star.net, etc). I need to get the site-formerly-known-as-AMC up. I need a new site title. HELP!
* Tax return? Hey, it was $100 I didn't have before. And now the damn school is jumping down my throat over it. So I need a 'dependent' verification form (shiz. Am I still considered a dependent in school/legal/medical terms, even though Mom doesn't financially support me?), her tax return (copy), and my tax return (ugh).

So much for the end of stress. I can't wait until spring break.
19 MORE DAYS!!!

I think that LJ said something about increasing the userpics or something like that a couple days ago. But I'm not too sure, I don't really read it, just glance it over. Lol, yeah, too many birthdays to keep track in March. =D But the more the merrier right?

Anyway, I'd love to have a Cupcake Day at school! We have an unofficial Pi Day at school where we dress up in a "Pi or Die" shirt. (I never got that x.x) Cupcakes are so much better than Pi, especially real pie. Mwaha~ Chocolate covered cupcakes are zeh best!

"Kaiba the Virgin Sacrifice" and the "Sight Unseen" intrigues me the most. Can I have a spoiler? Please? XD

Spring break.... mine is still a whole month away. *looks longingly*

[azurite]

Kaiba the Virgin Sacrifice: A deranged group of female cultists take over Domino High with the intent of finding a male "pure" enough to sacrifice for their dark rites. What Kaiba doesn't expect is for Anzu Mazaki to willingly join the cult- and single HIM out as the Virgin Sacrifice!

Sight Unseen: Many years ago, Anzu Mazaki disappeared without a trace. The last anyone heard of her, she was the pupil of the young Chinese ballet star Xiaomei Yan, a blind dancer with a passion and fury in her movement like no one else. Now, Xiaomei is dead, and Anzu reappears on the scene... but she's blind! What happened in all the years that she's been gone... and is she willing and ready to return to the life she knew in Japan?

As for the userpics thing, they did say that they were increasing Paid Accounts to 30 pics. o_o But I'm a permanent user, so I thought it'd stay at 100. If anything 100 + 30 = 130, not 132. o_o; I mean, unless the laws of mathematics have convoluted on me.

As I am bound and determined to get a pole (cuz pole dancing = mucho fun), my friend recommended Carmen Electra's tapes but I still haven't gotten it yet -_-; (Can we say 'Easter Present'???) XD

So, I gotta know . . . is it fab-oo????? ^_~

You seem to be having a great time with it! *makes plans to visit Best Buy*

[azurite]

It is faboo. Technically, the first routine (Warm-Up) and the second routine (a full dance) are a workout on their own; I haven't moved on to the 3rd one yet, because I want to get the 2nd routine down pat. It's tons of fun, in any case, and you can really feel it working and stretching parts. It'll also make you laugh-- it's very cute. It takes ROOM, though. I have about 6 sq. ft. to work with, and I keep running into things. :P

I definitely want to try the other videos, though maybe in no particular order. Vol 4&5 are sold together-- Lap Dance AND Hip-Hop. :D Hehe.

creamy cupcakes, silk panties and striptease

[(Anonymous)]

haha, that came out to be a sexy title even though I just wanted to comment on those things that you mentioned in your entries.

It's kinda weird but lately I've been craving Hostess-type treats too. Last week it was Twinkies, and just a few days ago, Ho-hos. I am totally up for a National Cupcake Day!

About the silk panties, I can't speak for all Asian girls, but I personally do wear silk panties quite often... that is, until I found out how bad they are for you. Not to mention, stain removal is near-impossible sometimes. But it just feels so comfortable to wear silk panties! It's so soft and luxorious and makes me feel so confident! But then again, it's all up to personal preference and maybe I do have a little bit of favoritism, seeing that I am Chinese and we did invent silk in the first place.

Hmm, I saw the Carmen Electra Striptease and it does seem kinda fun but I really don't understand how that hip-hop part is striptease. I've been told pole dancing is fun and I'm up to giving that a shot but after seeing the new Shakira music video, what I really want to do is belly dancing, tehehe.

I could tell it was you Eva from the practically-the-same message, the IP address, and the fact that this entry is FLocked, but you still responded to it. :P So much for anonymity.

Anyway, to the stuff I didn't respond to in your other comment:
I don't see how hip-hop helps with strip-tease either, except that the moves might draw from one another. Lots of hip thrusts, maybe? As it turns out, many kinds of sexilicious dancing are good for your body, but belly dancing actually requires a fuller figure than other dances (i.e. stripping/exotic dancing, etc.).

cupcakes, panties, striptease and... taxes

[cutieme4u.livejournal.com]

haha, that started out somewhat sexy, but then I had to just randomly throw taxes into the mix. But yea, onto comments about things you've been talking about.

Cupcake day? Oh yes! Lately, I've been craving all sorts of Hostess-made treats (and putting on pounds due to it :( So I think National Cupcake day is a great idea!

As far as panties go, I used to love wearing silk panties. There was a point where, yes, I did wear them every day even though I didn't have a bf or anyone who would see them except me. Personally, I think the silk feels really good against skin, no matter where it is. Yes, I know it's terrible for you and all that, which is why I stopped wearing them. So maybe I'm a bit biased in that I'm Chinese and we did invent silk, but I really think it's just wonderful because it's sexy, comfortable and luxurious.

I saw the Carmen Electra videos and they do seem kinda fun, especially the stuff involving the chair and the dressing up parts, but I don't get how that hip-hop part is striptease. I think I'd like pole dancing more, but after seeing the new Shakira video, what I really want to do is belly dancing.

And taxes... yea, you should have just declared dependent to begin with. It makes things a lot easier for your mom and even though it's less beneficial to you because you don't get as much financial aid, she gets huge tax perks because you're her dependent.

Re: cupcakes, panties, striptease and... taxes

[azurite]

I DON'T want my mom to get "huge tax perks." Nothing against my mom, but it actually screws me over. As far as I know, it only affects me medically; I've asked the school over and over whether I count as a dependent even if she doesn't provide me with financial support, I don't live with her, etc.-- and they said yes, until I'm 25, unless I declare complete severance from her, which I won't do. :P So I guess I gotta get those forms and annoy mom with them. I didn't have any problems with Kaiser either, so I think I'm good on that front.

Re: cupcakes, panties, striptease and... taxes

[cutieme4u.livejournal.com]

Well, yea, it doesn't seem like you fit the definition of dependent, at least not how the IRS book defines it (I'm taking a tax class right now, just like your mom did.) So while you *technically* aren't a dependent, she does get money that would otherwise go to the gov if u were to be her dependent. It's actually pretty complicated...

[guardian-kysra.livejournal.com]

If you are still in school, or working only part-time then yes, you can be claimed as a dependent. My parents claimed me for the whole year even though I was working full-time for half of it.

[atlantian-magic.livejournal.com]

DEFINITELY 'Kaiba the Virgin Sacrifice' because we just know that Anzu wants to tear him apart. ^_^ Hopefully its as naughty as it sounds.
