| GOT MY BRACES OFF TODAY....YAY!!!!!!!!! | | |
| THIS SEMESTER IS FINALLY OVER....WOOHOO!!!! I PASSED ALL MY CLASSES AND MAY EVEN GET ON THE DEAN'S LIST THIS SEMESTER. THANKS FOR ALL YOUR PRAYERS...HE HEARD YOU GUYS!!!! I'M SOOOO TIRED! THIS SEMESTER KICKED MY ASS!!!!!
On a lighter note, I have a very funny story. I think by now you guys all know who my neighbor is...just in case you don't, it's M-e-t-h-o-d MAN. And, I think you all know what he did to my car. If you don't, he hit it with his big navigator as he was pulling out of his driveway. Long story short...he rang the doorbell, I looked like crap cuz I was working on my research proposal and didn't expect to leave my house. When I opened the door he was standing there and told me that he just hit my car. Needless to say, I was shocked, my jaw dropped and when the shock wore off...I started looking for Ashton Kutcher because I thought I was gettting punked. Now that you all are caught up...I can tell you the funny story. That was not it.
My mom is so excited that someone famous lives right next door. This was confimed not by myself or Jeffrey but by her many co-workers who've heard of him. She's excited none the less even though she's never heard of him. Her new favorite thing is to stand by her plants and look out of our front windows to catch a glimpse of him. One night, a couple weeks ago, she comes running to me very excited and goes "JENNETTE, JENNETTE, GUESS WHAT? I JUST SAW BOOGEY MAN. HE PARKED HIS CAR IN FRONT OF OUR HOUSE!!!" I almost peed in my pants. It was the funniest thing and those of you who know my mom can appreciate this. The combination of her accent, state of excitement, and her notorious way of always getting names wrong (i.e. Shane + Hank = Shank) was absolutely hillarious. That was truly a "classic" Susan Diones moment!!! I love my Mom!!!!
Congrats Hankins (AKA...Bestie) on graduating!!!! I'm so proud of you!!!! See you tonight!!!
Happy Mother's Day to all the mommies!!! | | |
| I should be studying right now for a pharm exam but I'm so sick and tired of studying!!! That's all I've been doing plus writing papers and care plans and seeing patients. I did get to go out for Ponti's b-day last Friday. We went to Churrascarria (sp?). Jeffrey paid for me...YAY..cuz I'm a broke unemployed student. THANK YOU JEFFREY....since you claim not to have heard it the first time. We all went to 46 afterwards for Roddy's b-day. It was so good to see the peeps again.
A wonderful thing happened at 46. We were there talking, laughing and dancing. I couldn't help but notice this guy who was about 6'6" tall (how could I not in a sea of 5'5" Filipinos). He kept trying to make eye contact but, as you all know, being the shy person that I am, I kept looking away. I was standing in front of the couches in the back and he finally made his way to the couches to "sit down". As the crowd kept pushing me back, I kept bumping into those little tables. I then felt someone grab my hand and when I turned to see who it was...it was him. He wanted to apologize for kicking the table which, in turn, hit me. He then wanted me to sit down and talk to him but I told him that if he wanted to talk he would have to stand. So, we started talking and in my head I was checking off my list.
TALL (6'6") = CHECK
LOOKS = CHECK
GOOD DANCER = CHECK
NOT GHETTO = CHECK
SOUNDS INTELLIGENT EVEN THO A LITTLE SBA = CHECK
DRESSED NICE = CHECK
NICE SUNGLASSES AND NOT WEARING THEM AT NIGHT IN A BAR = CHECK
HAS A J-O-B = CHECK
LIVES IN BOSTON = EHHHH...WE'LL GET BACK TO THAT ONE
WILLING TO COME EVERY WEEKEND JUST TO SEE ME = CHECK
HIS FRIENDS WANTED TO LEAVE AND KRIS OVERHEARD HIM SAYING HE WASN'T READY CUZ HE WAS TALKING TO ME = CHECK
So, now we're up to the exchanging of numbers portion of the conversation. But, before I gave it to him, something told me to ask him his age.
Me: Wait, tell me how old you are first
Him: I'm 24
Me: OH MY GOD!!!!!!!! YOU'RE A BABY!!!!!! I'LL GO TO JAIL IF I DATE YOU!!!!!!
Him: Why, how old are you? You're like 21 or 22 right?????
Me: Not even close buddy! I'm 33.
Him: Shut up...you're lying. Look, if you didn't want to give me your number you just had to say so. You don't have to lie to me.
Me: Believe me, I wish I was lying...I was born in 72.
Him: Damn...you look good!!! Do you know how good you're going to look when you're 40 or 50?
IN MY HEAD: ASSHOLE...DO YOU KNOW THAT'S IN 7 YEARS!!!!!
Me: Oh...thank you!
Him: I don't care...we can be like Ashton and Demi...you're gorgeous.
So that was one of the highlights of my evening. I passed for 21 or 22 year old! Overall...it was a well needed break from the monotony of my life of school and studying!!! Speaking of which, I must do now!! Hope to see you all soon!
PS - HAPPY BELATED B-DAY RAYMUND!!!! CONGRATS HAYDEE AND MAURO!!!! | | |
| Hi everyone...I'm still alive. Just took my first med-surg exam yesterday.....I hate fluid and electrolytes!! Wagner is on top of a hill and the school closes if we get a dusting. Why on earth did they open when we got record breaking snow fall? Does that make sense? My classmates and I kept praying that they would cancel classes and close down the campus so we wouldn't have to take this exam...didn't happen. 
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY EVERYONE!!! | | |
| I had the weirdest dream last night. I dreamt that it was Ray and Melinda's wedding day. Everything was happening just as it did that day. I met Mad and Melinda at Newport to get our hair done. The only difference was that I took Melinda to Jersey and we went to straight to Park Savoy where we met the groomsmen and Ray. Oh yeah, one more big difference....they're newborn daughter was there too. I can't remember her name...it was something exotic...maybe even a little bit ghetto...which I found odd. I wish I could remember. She was sooooo adorable and had the chubbiest cheeks. She was dressed in a white satin dress with matching patent leather Mary Janes (with Ray as her father, who knows, they may very well have been Jordans). We were all upstairs cooing at her and commenting on how cute she looked when Ray announced that he had a wedding present for Melinda. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a diamond and sapphire necklace. Everyone OOO'd and AHHH'd and of course I began to tear. After all the commotion died down, he then said wait, " I have one more present". He reached in his other pocket and then pulled out another necklace and said, "Whatever I give my big princess, I have to give my little princess". That was it for me....I was balling and so was everyone else. There were a lot of people in that room but the only ones I remember crying were ME (of course), Jenn and Joe. That was the end of my dream. What the hell could that mean? Maybe they have something they want to tell us. Maybe it's not them...maybe there's another couple that might want to share something. Someone tell us something!!!!! | | |
