| birthday giftsi love all my gifts! i don't know why i especially like them this year, maybe because i've been receiving baby gifts for so long... but this time it was for me. it's about time i'm transforming back to me.
1. iphone - nick bought me one (but then he bought himself one too).
2. shoes & clothes - non maternity, non mommy... trendy, cute & uncomfortable!
3. spa - i've been wanting a massage/spa ever since i got pregnant... now i have a two certificates i can enjoy.
4. gift cards & cash - i love these. i don't know why people don't like to give/receive these.
5. cards - love them! i keep all of them & read them every few years. it's so much fun.
6. messages - enjoy them. i especially always crack up at nanoh's "butt tap"
7. family & friends - it's so fun to have a nice dinner... or in this case... dinnerS.
humming in my head ("God is so good. God is so good God is so good, he's so good to me")

| 28: 9-11 & football & birthdayi've been up since 5:00am and i can't sleep. main reason is my adrenaline from watching monday night football. pretty soon it'll be a full 24 hours of being awake. what do you do when you have insomnia? write an entry.
so much goes on ON my birthday.
it's emotional.
first i get sad thinking/hearing about the tragedy, then i get stressed watching football games, then i get happy (playing 50 cents in my head)
9-11
honestly, it was really hard to celebrate my birthday after this event.
football
vince young broke the ice, and i was able to celebrate my birthday... longhorn style.
my past few birthdays were celebrated around pretty important TEXAS football games, and this year i was pretty happy that football wasn't going to cloud/stress my mind during my birthday. BUT guess what i was doing, while everyone's sleeping, until 1:00am on my birthday....... i just finished watching MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL!
i don't know when i became a football fan. i started getting into it
when i started dating nick, but i don't know when i really started to become a fan. being a fan is emotional.
i don't think i like being a fan.
birthday
i love getting texts, emails, gifts, dinners, sweets, & international conference calls (miss you julee & nanoh, love you joanna). but what i really love.... i love cards! especially when it comes in the mailbox.
i loved college birthdays also (pre-911).
people would wake me up or pop into my room at the strike of midnight with a cake.
i miss those.

| i woke up 5am today to make breakfast for nick to fuel his brain for his big exam today.
it reminded me of those times my mom would make us breakfast before our big exams (taks, psat, sat, etc).
then i started to nick how similar my mom & nick are. people say girls always marry someone like their father, but not me, i'm starting to notice i married someone like my mother.
nick and my mom are not easy people. so much bad has happened in their life, they have been scarred....
and a lot of times are bad to others. as much as they want to change, they just can't.
both are misunderstood by most people, and only a select few know who they really are.
i always thought to myself. i want to be like my father. please God, don't let me be like my mother.
i always thought highly of my father. he gets along with everyone and opens up his life to people. he truly displays a "changed life through Christ" People love working for him. (he's also very affectionate) (something i secretly love, but don't act like i do).
nick & my mom both study and work hard. God & family are first. everything & everyone else is secondary.
my father works hard also but thinks differently from my mom. God is first. Family & everyone is secondary. Actually, everyone else was family to my dad.
who knows which is better. i always thought my father was a better person, but i'm starting to learn that i don't know everything... especially when it comes to my mom & nick.
nick & my mom might not be the best people in this world, but i love them.
