IS IT THE CAT WITH THE BLACK SHADES?

FOR SALE!!!!

Mon, 05 Sep 2005 02:32:57 GMT

I bought the skirt at my job for $26.99...

I guess I'll sell it for like... $10?

Comment if you want it :)

Went down to Miami this weekend.

My brother took most of these. He was acting like a photographer or something, making everyone pose.

Me and Doughnut.

My aunt, and my mom on the beach.

My brother said, "Look gangsta". He thinks he's Eazy-E.

I was supposed to be making a "pensive" face... but my brother made me laugh.

I commited a tourist sin, and bought this dress on Ocean Drive 10 minutes before.

My brother took this one.

And this one.

This was Jay's idea.

My brother and me.

My brother, being "artistic".

Me, with my brother's Eazy-E locs on.

Me, looking lost.

My brother, looking gangsta.

Pictures of South Beach/Ocean Drive.

My mom and brother got in the way of this one.

So yeah, that was fun.

Thu, 02 Jun 2005 04:08:21 GMT

So he didn't place.
He was an honorable mention!

Bullit is the last one on that page.

IP LOCATOR... duh.

I hate waiting.

Waiting... for my paycheck. (I work at Rave @ NorthPoint, btw. If you live in ATL, visit me!)
... for my car.
... to be 18.
... to be a senior.
... to move out. MAY 25th, 2006. Long shot, but I'll wait.

Ugh.
What a good post.
There will be pictures next time. Promise.

CHAOTIC!

Wed, 18 May 2005 02:02:03 GMT

I used to idolize Britney Spears.
I will admit.
With that said...

CHAOTIC MAKES ME VOMIT.

I've never seen a more trashy, uneducated whore in my life.
No wonder Justin Timberlake dropped her ass like it was on fire.

& Oh yeah...

... she looks like she smells.

:D

I've decided a few things in the past few hours I've been on the internet.

1. Corey Clark is a loser.
2. Corey Clark has limited musical abilty.
3. Corey Clark is a loser.
4. It's very hard for me to believe that Corey Clark came up with the name of his book all by himself.
5. This kid didn't even win... so who really cares if he slept with Paula Abdul?
6. With a song like Wiggle & Shake... a lot of publicity will probably be detrimental.
7. Corey Clark is rather attractive. Unfortunately, that won't be enough to sway public opinion in his favor.

That's all.

K.O.S.

Fri, 13 May 2005 19:18:29 GMT

This is my final project for Computer Art.
We had to take 12+ images and make a collage about ourselves.
Here is mine.

The quality of my image is rather crappy, thanks to my image host, but this is like... my most favorite project ever.

PROM 2005!

Sun, 08 May 2005 16:15:35 GMT

So, after all the anticipation surrounding this event... it wasn't that great. Actually, dinner was fun, and so was driving there... but prom was a... glorified homecoming. Pope has played "Yeah" at the last two homecomings, and last two proms I've been to. And I really don't think Holla Back Girl is a song to dance to.

But! We saw Jason Weaver at dinner.

Yay!
In front of the restaurant.

Brianna was dreaming...

...and then Courtney and I decided to join her.

Everyone was distracted.

More distraction...
but doesn't everyone look nice?

This pose was my mom's bright idea.

Everyone was ready to go.

Courtney and Brianna in the car.
Look at the corsage Jermaine got Courtney.
My boyfriend didn't get me one.
It's okay, though.

On the way to the restaurant, Guy (in his brother's car) and Freddy (in his dad's car) decided to recreate "2 Fast 2 Furious" down GA-400.
This was when Guy got ahead of Freddy.

Kristin and Guy.

See the black blob next to the wine bottle behind my head?
That's Jason Weaver.
Really.

Courtney and Jermaine look cute...
but I think Brianna would beg to differ.
She decided to go dateless.

Happy Cinco De Mayo, indeed.

Thu, 05 May 2005 19:17:38 GMT

So, check this out.

Finally, on my third try I got my license. Driving school was worth the money.

I just realized I'm an organ donor... what the hell?

Say hello to my little friend...

Wed, 04 May 2005 00:21:19 GMT

Me and Freddy have a new baby.

Freddy bought this little Boston Terrier puppy today. Pardon the crappy cell phone picture. Since Fred is still in North Carolina, I only get to see him & the new puppy through webcam & camera phone.

Name and better pictures later.

Yeeeee! I'm a mommy!

Fri, 29 Apr 2005 03:28:56 GMT

Yay. I made a dress.
I've been working on this for like... a while. Actually. I abandoned it, but I was seized by a fit of creativity last night, so... here it is.

Pardon the goofy face...

... and the goofy hair accessory.

Oh yeah, btw. Got my braids back.
Eeee, I'm so happy.

Well, the trip was alright... Destin isn't really the place to be with a family, you know? But it was cool. Forreal, tho, the highlight of the trip was going to Wal-Mart... and yeah, the hotel was pretty damn cool, too. Don't know how my mom pulled that one off.

Here be the photos.
Theyre boring... but at least you can see the hotel.

Chillin' in the hotel.

That's Austin chillin' on that couch...
There were mirrors everywhere in that place.

My brother and Austin watching Girlfriend's, even though they claimed they hated it.

When we first got there, me and Courtney suited up and went on a walk.
Awww, look at Courtney.

It was so gloomy there, that my feet were twisting in odd directions...
wait, no. I just can't walk.

When we were walking back, the clouds looked... insane.

We took pictures.

Pfft.
Austin sucks at taking pictures.

Marco had to take a picture "reading" on Spring Break for his English class.

We sat out on the porch and looked at people.
It was fun... for an hour or two.

Courtney looks JUST like her sister.

There was some action down on the beach...
until we got down there.
So we took a picture.

This is when me and Austin were about to fight.
This happened numerous times.

Everyone, before we left.
My brother and I are not normal.
And ignore my mom's "hottie" shirt.

Mi familia.

The living room.

Me & Courtney's room.

Porch

My mom and Ursula's Bathroom.

My mom and Ursula's room.

The beach, from our room.

The pool.

Haha, DAMN those were boring.

Fri, 08 Apr 2005 06:53:20 GMT

So...

We (Courtney & I) are still in Georgia.

Meaning, we have not left for Spring Break yet.

Our last day of Spring Break, is Sunday.

Today is Friday.

With that said, Courtney and I spent our last morning in Georgia doing what we do best.

Enjoy.

You know how I do.

Courtney is wearing my ~~cooler~~ sunglasses.

This was supposed to be the jaded, coked-up
Rock Star picture...

... uh huh.

And then the fucked up hair picture...

Courtney mastered this one.

So famous...

... don't be jealous.

Ignore the...
yeah.
I didn't know they were that far down.

She's not a very good rock star
but isn't she cute?

She tries.
It's not her fault.

Don't hate.
This is our combination sunglasses/lip gloss ad.

We copied this pose from Hilary and Haylie Duff.
Didn't quite work out...
for obvious reasons.

Bitchin'.

Don't be sippin' on that HATE-O-RADE...
Sorry, we get out of control.

When your famous, like Courtney & I...
you're swamped with obnoxious paparazzo...

... you learn to deal.
(Ignore the tabloid laying by my hand.)

Sometimes, though...
you just have to give them what they are after.

Grey sweatpants are a beautiful thing.

ROCK STAR POSERS.

Ugh...

... let us breath.

Watch out.

My carpet is dirty.

WE'RE SO READY TO LEAVE!

Yeah, its like that.

Mon, 04 Apr 2005 05:25:17 GMT

EVERYONE JOIN!!!!

FIRST 5 PEOPLE ARE IN AUTOMATICALLY!!!

Oh, the lameness of starting a new group.

WELL THATS GOOD TO KNOW.

Fri, 01 Apr 2005 23:02:09 GMT

It's always nice to know that a convicted child molester lives down the block.

Go check out your zip:

How pleasant.

oooh, how sad.

Thu, 31 Mar 2005 17:00:34 GMT

I guess in_the_mix disappeared while I took my hiatus from El-Jay...

... did it come back as another group?

If not, is anyone interested in moderating a new one?

brooklyn keep on checkin' it.

Ganked from wavy.

Changed my layout. Mos Def is ill. I love my new user pictures, too.

Right so, the week before Spring Break is definitely the most trying out of the entire year. At least (at least) I got an 88 on my Algebra II quiz, & if wasn't so pleased over that, I probably would have probably gone crazy by now.

I'm going to Urban Outfitters to pick up two things (providing my wallet will let me open it wide enough to spend the money I'm supposed to be saving).

At the moment, the biggest problem I'm allowing myself to have is picking a pair of sandals.

It's between these two:

They both look better on. Kinda ugly on screen, I know.

I want these, too. I should probably get around to repeircing my ears.

Ah, I love buying things that won't match anything I own :)

Mon, 28 Mar 2005 22:17:15 GMT

So, yesterday was Easter... yay!

After Church, Courtney came over so we could make her Mole project for Chemistry. Regretfully, I didn't take a picture of that, but I got a picture of all the other stupid stuff we did... it's all really boring, might wanna skip this one, lol.

BTW. The Gastineau Girls is a slightly addictive show. I guess in the same way all those other "watch us be rich" shows are, lol.

Oh. Damn.
Here's the ever-present cam-whore picture...

Sunday best, goofy face.
I looked crazy as anything at church.
Courtney wore her's too, thats red and black plaid...
But no pictures :(.

After the insanly long Mole-Making process, we were starving.
Then my ma called us for dinner.
Courtney was so excited she did a little dance...

... then we ran downstairs.
My walls look weird.

My brother had already beat us to the food.
Pardon the dirty kitchen :).

Whoo. Courtney at the fridge.

Really buttery Alfredo
with linguini and chicken.
It was quite tasty.

Random picture I took of Marco eating.
Yeah, I'm cool.

After we ate, we went
back upstairs to my room and hung
out for a little bit...
watching The Gastineau Girls.

Then Courtney was like,
"OMG, Nicole! I love your skirt!"
So we decided to make her one, too.
(You know what's cool?
My whole outfit here was recycled:
Skirt= step mom's old jeans.
Grey tank= My ma's from the 8o's.
White shirt= My brother's from 2nd Grade.)

First we cut a really tiny skirt
from her old pair of jeans.
Whoohoo.

Then I grabbed a razor blade and
started slicing away...
To give it that "run over by a car" look.
(I love my tomato, btw.)

Then Courtney brutally assaulted it
with a cheese-grater.

When I went to sew on the lace, the the thread kept coming loose.
This would explain my angry look.
My legs look gray.

Finally, Courtney got to try on the finished product...

... side-view!
This skirt has the amazing power to reduce any butt
one may have.

Now we can be twins!
Yeah!

Exciting, eh?

Whoo!

Thu, 24 Mar 2005 03:46:47 GMT

I bought my prom dress today at Rampage.com.

They had it in coral, too, but when I came back from asking my mom, it was sold out... but whatever, it's all good. Purple will be hot by May 7th...

... Problem is getting Fred to wear purple by then.

Oh yeah, BTW... how freakin' hot does Justin Timberlake look in the Signs video? I mean, he wasn't exactly killin' any of those Usher-esque moves... but it was hot.

UM, HATE CRIME?

Wed, 23 Mar 2005 19:59:44 GMT

So, read this:

If it asks you to sign in type in my email address: chasez76j@hotmail.com.

One of the attackers was a 17-year old boy who raped a four year old baby boy. What the fuck? What kind of sense does this world make when a child molester is even let out long enough to commit a hate crime?

Ugh.

WELL, AT LEAST ITS IN TIJUANA.

Mon, 21 Mar 2005 20:21:25 GMT

I wish I had something really exciting to update with... eh, I got my sewing machine & I've been sewing like crazy since. I made the coolest Abercrombie imitation skirt (since they don't sell it at the stores anymore, and I don't have $70 to spend on a skirt anyway).

I like mine better anyway :) Sorry about the quality of those... didn't have any image software on my ma's laptop.

Figured out Spring Break and I'm mad excited about it. We're splitting the week in two: first 5 days in Orlando with my dad, second 5 days in Boca Raton with my mom. And Courtney's coming with us, 'cos she's awesome :)

Whoa! Not that this is particularly important, or anything, but the other night, I had a dream about my math teacher. We were chilling in my room, and he like... came out to me. He said he was a gay men's magazine photographer, then proceeded to show me half-naked pictures of himself... which probably would have been more jarring if he was one of those oh-so-hot-gonna-be-a-lifetime-movie type teachers; he's 22, or something. All the sophomores are nuts over him...

... interpret that shit, lol.

FUCK MARSICO.

Thu, 10 Mar 2005 19:54:20 GMT

Honestly, why the fuck is Algebra II so hard for me?
Today, I took a test, and answered 2 questions, and at the top wrote, "DO NOT EVEN GRADE :)".

How sad. I hate math.
If my Algebra II class was subtracted from my average, I'd have a 3.8.
Beautiful.

No go.

Fri, 04 Mar 2005 20:30:54 GMT

So, I didn't get it.
But I'll blame that on everything but my inability to drive.

So, I wish everyone would decide whats happening on Spring Break. Or stop flip-flopping plans. That would be beautiful.

My ma is saying Miami or Mexico, my dad is saying Hilton Head/Costa Rica, and now here comes Courtney/Kristen/Guy saying Florida (or wherever)... ah, I just want to be tan again. And as far as I know, the sun shines all over the planet (save our fair Peach State), so I could really care less.

T.G.I.F.
My sewing machine should be coming in the mail soon.

This is not a joke.

Wed, 02 Mar 2005 05:58:18 GMT

It was all white outside when I woke up this morning, and I got all excited thinking, "Oh shit, no school." Yeah right. I knew the fair people in charge of Fulton County Schools would never allow it. It was crazy during first period, too. Like a blizzard and all that, but nothing was sticking to the ground. I don't understand how little girls at my school were wearing flip-flops and mini skirts... with scarves... what the fuck?

I'm going to get my license around 11pm today. All the appointments were way in April, so my dad's girlfriend/wife made appointments in Dublin, Georgia... its 2 HOURS & 30 MINUTES from here. Jesus.

Thanks MapQuest.
For a heads up, Macon is "middle Georgia".

I love the fact that I get to take it at the same time as my "step-mom". Is it mean to hope she fails? I don't thinks so... she's a ~~raunchy skeez~~ mean chick, anyway.

Let's hope I'll be able to post a picture of my viable freedom later on today.
