Happy Song

This song/video makes me happy and here are a few reasons why:

"hey, heeeey"

Ukelele
brick interior loft (my dream)
city corner cafe
people eating outside
aviator glasses (rowrrr)
painting & art

"hey, heeeey"

the words: they are so great!
I heart Mr. Mister
I can totally cut a rug
clapping
catchy beat

Also because it reminds me of the time back in 2003, my first semester at the Academy of Art University, where some friends and I skipped our class, snuck onto a boat and enjoyed a free concert by BNL and Train on Alcatraz with San Francisco as it's backdrop.

So for you, ENJOY!  I hope this song makes you smile as it does me and puts a little spring in your step........oooh spring, now that sounds nice!  :)

Happy Valentines Day!

Remember that one time we were all thankful to NOT be dating this guy
Or the time your mind was blown with this amazing awesomeness!

This year i'm going to be a little selfish.  Share with you a little of me, the things that make me happy, make me smile and the things I LOVE.

Accidentally overhearing someone say something nice about you.
First Third kisses 
(1st kisses are too awkward and 2nd kisses you're still figuring it out. 
But the third kiss? Now THERE's a kiss!)
Making new friends and spending time with the old ones.
Singing in the bathroom
Hot chocolate
Carameled Apples
Holding hands with someone you care about
Watching a sunset
Sleeping in
Taking long, hot showers
Starbucks
Knowing that somebody misses you
Playing in the rain
Accomplishing a new project
Bike rides.......long bike rides!
Sleeping in my bed after I've been away
Getting mail
Listening to my favorite songs on repeat
Taking pictures
Arriving just as the plane is boarding
People who just get me.

And to all of you that I hold near and dear to me.....................................................

I'm always amazed with those bloggers who post something everyday.  Everyday like a faithful blogger should, and good for them!
Then there are some who post several times a day.  Not just once, but once in the morning, maybe a little something in the afternoon, and something later that evening. Who has time for this? I mean really?
There are days where I have plenty of free time but the last thing I actually think about doing is visiting my own blog to update it. There are numerous things on my mind constantly (hence my need to make lists), and even events, joys, trials, and tears that are going on in my life as we speak but i'm not about to tell you all about. Hell, most of you don't even leave comments so really, I dont' think ANYONE reads this thing.
Sometimes I think maybe I should just indulge you all into the mind of Uzi. But then I think, "they have already seen Big Fish (which should actually be my sisters life since she over exagerates EVERYTIHNG)or The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus."
If you REALLY saw what goes on in my mind half the time, you'd be laughing one minute then instantly thinking "whaaaat!?"
I don't even know where i'm going with this post, or how I got on this subject (probably because i'm a bit scatterbrained at times (hence the lists)), let alone how this post got so long. I never talk this much, let alone blog this much in one post. I surprise myself every day.

Things on my mind
The time my sister and I were sitting in church as the organ started to warm up for the closing song, we imagined the congregation slowly lifting of and flying around the chapel shooting lazer beams at everyone.

"oh I, I just died in your arms tonight. Must have been something you said....."

One more thing I love about the Chinese: Their Jump Rope!
"2. 4. 6. 8. in. out. on. off. on. off. twisties. twirlies. diamond"

I left the house this morning confident and looking good and didn't see anyone of importance all day today- what a waste!  Better than yesterday where I left the house feeling like I looked great and later that day looking in the mirror thinking "I looked WAY better than this when I left the house!"

Has anyone else caught on that "lol" has gone from meaning, "laugh out loud" to "I have nothing else to say", also referred to as :)

The letters T and G are very close to each other on a keyboard. This recently became apparent to me when, trying to sound professional at work, I ended an email with "Regards"- or so I thought.
Looks like trying to sound grown up isn't doing me any favors.

I have 2314 songs on my Ipod and love everyone of them. Yet why do I find myself skipping song after song in my car?

The Circus, especially this one!

I haven't worn a coat all week. Not because it's warm outside, but because I think that if I dress like it's warm, Spring will come sooner.

Picturing my sister driving around town with all the kids in the gold car......HAA HA HAAA!

And a sweet sweet picture that makes me laugh every time!

and I quote:
"just making sure all of you crossed the finish line"

Alright, that's enough fun for one day, time to get back to work and kill it before I leave.
 I hope you all enjoyed a little glimpse inside my mind.  


HAPPY FRIDAY!!

Year of the Racist

I had a realization today:
I don't like Chinese food
In fact, I don't like Chinese people.

but Japs are different
they are taller
and don't have split pea eyes.
And basically rule modern technology 
in the eastern hemisphere as far as i'm concerned.

(go ahead, judge away)

Ok, wait, Jacky Chan is pretty cool. And their acrobats are pretty amazing. Oh, and Panda Express, now that's good, well kind of, but not really, but the smell get's me every time. Oh, and the fireworks, who can't be grateful for those?
Ok. but. THAT's. IT!
