inspiration or revelation?
Lately I've been feeling a bit like reinventing myself. Starting a whole new "look", a whole new "me". I think it has something to do with the fact that I just celebrated my 28th birthday on Monday. (yikes!) So I started searching around the interwebs for new fashion ideas, hair styles, etc. But in doing so I've found that I really don't want a new look, I just want to look more like I feel, my personality, the little "character" inside of me that I suppress because I work at a private university and don't get out all that much. Well, today I got an email from a fashion site/store that I receive regularly, but ignore because it's hardly ever relevant to me. But not today. Today it's all me. Now if I could just move to Venice Beach, CA I'd be all set.

share the happiness, share the love
Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared. - Buddha

Relativity speaking...
My friends are super nerds, but that's why I love them.
bizarrelos (11:21:49 AM): hey, so i heard back from the relativity guyu
bizarrelos (11:22:15 AM): he's pretty enthusiastic about my coming, it turns out
vidavox (11:22:35 AM): COOL
bizarrelos (11:22:36 AM): so it looks like i'll be studying general relativity
bizarrelos (11:22:37 AM): yeah
bizarrelos (11:22:41 AM): me so happy
vidavox (11:22:57 AM): study specific relativity
bizarrelos (11:23:15 AM): totallballs
vidavox (11:23:37 AM): or non descript reality
bizarrelos (11:23:42 AM): in particular, he studies, among other things, the "shape"/geometry of black holes
bizarrelos (11:23:48 AM): how cool is that?
bizarrelos (11:23:50 AM): very cool
vidavox (11:23:57 AM): they are round buddy...no need to study
bizarrelos (11:24:10 AM): apparently they're pretty complicated
vidavox (11:24:15 AM): LIES
bizarrelos (11:24:40 AM): but i'll tell him about your theory
vidavox (11:25:13 AM): i would imagine the mass of every object orbiting them affects there shape at all times...even though it's mass is so great you'd think it would be unaffected
bizarrelos (11:25:41 AM): i'm pretty sure you're quite right about all of that
bizarrelos (11:25:53 AM): including that the effects of surrounding bodies can be neglected
bizarrelos (11:26:05 AM): but, what about two black holes next to each other?
vidavox (11:26:11 AM): that's dangerous
bizarrelos (11:26:12 AM): then you're in a sexy situation
vidavox (11:26:27 AM): black holes eating black holes...sounds like a gross pron
bizarrelos (11:26:42 AM): Einstein's wackin it in his grave
bizarrelos (11:21:49 AM): hey, so i heard back from the relativity guyu

100 Things About Me (1-25)
1. I was born in Miami, FL and have lived here my entire life, with the exception of the 4 years I spent in Tallahassee for college.
2. My favorite colors are purple, indigo and black.
3. "I love the bread aisle because it smells like bread" - I actually said that once. True story.
4. I have a younger sister who everyone thinks is the older sister.
5. I love my cat as if he were my child. Some people get it, some people think I'm nuts.
6. I must smell a cup before I use it for drinking. If I'm at someone else's house I still try and do it discretely. Its just a weird thing I do.
7. I have always been fascinated by the idea of vampires. I have been a vampire for halloween about 10 times, at least. This whole Twilight phenomenon has really intensified it for me lately.
8. I have a few places that absolutely can NOT be touched on my body or I will gag. Those who know me well know where these places are and they know better then to try and touch them!
9. I absolutely love the band Rush. Always have since I was about 3. And Styx, too. Thanks Mom :)
10. I'm a total Mac (Apple) fanboy (girl?). I am obsessed with all things Mac, and I especially love their white polycarbonate items, like my brand new 3G iPhone. If I could design my whole house around Mac products I would. I'm that obsessed.
11. I'm a total beer girl. I don't care so much for wine or liquor. Give me some good beer, good friends and some good tunes and I'm set for the night.
12. I can't imagine my life without music in it. Music is everything. I always have music on or am learning about new music or making music or something, as long as it has to do with music.
13. I have always dreamed of being an archeologist or paleontologist. There is something about dinosaurs that just absolutely fascinates me. My favorite dino is the pterodactyl.
14. I have never been out of the country. Unless you count that weekend trip to Aruba in the 10th grade.
15. I love dancing. I can, have and will dance for hours on end. I took ballet, tap and jazz for years as a kid. I can't go out to a place where there's music playing and NOT dance.
16. My most coveted/favorte car is a VW R32 in blue. I'd take a GTI though if I had to.
17. I am a huge geek. I love computers, technology, science and everything related. I spend hours every day on a computer (it's my job) and I am wicked good at researching things on the internet.
18. I tend to find animals more interesting then people.
19. I've lived in Miami most of my life and I don't speak spanish. This is mindboggling to some people but not to me.
20. I have a huge family. You probably have met or know one of my family members.
21. I hate talking on the phone and avoid it if at all possible. I hate the possibility of awkward silences or not having anything to talk about. I can text my ass off though and have been known to have huge phone bills due to texting overages. :)
22. I used to want a motorcycle but not anymore. My father was in a serious motorcycle accident not too long ago and it has really opened up my eyes to how dangerous they can be.
23. I have a thing for robots. Oh, and pirates too.
24. I'm currently in a state of limbo and I don't like it :(
25. I'm new to this whole blogging thing and I'm still trying to get a "feel" for it.
