My Life is a Barbecue!

like literally. Not in the "IMZOEMOOMGMALYFIZONFYRSOPAINFULX" but more like .. I'm revolving around Barbecue's these days. I just realized I haven't been posting since so long andd since it's Sunday and then starts another crazy busy week, I shall post right NAO.

SOOO.. I HAD SO MUCH TO WRITE I WOULD LITERALLY MAKE UP A ZILLION POSTS IN MY MIND! but sadly, I have forgotten all of them. So lets start from scratch.. Here's a little outline:

- my week was an quentessential amalgamation [please refer to Furree Katt's post for the meaning of those two words LOL] of Super busy, hectic and almost homicidal (2 exams, an energy drink from another galaxy, sleepless nights)
- Friday = the real fun starts (I had to think this sentence three times over before saying 'okay screw it, let it be.' *THANKS ALOT REBECCA BLACK*)
- Saturday, Sunday = ZOMGDABAZTEST

Then another week, Which wasn't actually as bad because I GOT MY RESULTSS!!!
-Friday = .... you know what it is
-Saturday = IASIUWIDWADJAWDJ @I(E@@#@ WOOOOOOOOOOOOO
-SUNDAY = EVEN BETTTTTTEEEERRRRRRRRRR

All that.. repeat x100

Daz rite. Now here goes:

Let's start off with the super hectic homicidal week. I had two exams; Chemistry I and Biology II on Tuesday and Thursday and ALOOTT was covered but knowing me, I KNEW I would procrastinate till the last day (which I ALWAYS do). This time, I wasn't letting that happen. It was either shape up or ship out, So I braced myself for studying at least 2 days in advance of the exam. Result? Friday = gone. Saturday = gone. Sunday?!?!?!?!  = ... gone. M.O.N.D.A.Y?!?!?!?! = free Astro's tickets, I don't know what made me skip the game but boy am I glad that I did. After slacking around the whole Monday afternoon, I FINALLLLYY started studying for my chemistry exam. I studied half way into the night, slept, woke up early morning, skipped my Govt class and English class to study for chemistry, Gave the exam, felt confident, and then returned home to get some sleep going. But for some reason, I stayed up late. You're probably like YEAH SOO DAZ NOT SO BAD SHIZ
Alright. Check this out.
Tuesday = gone
Wednesday = All day procrastinating, Afternoon gone.
Finally pick up my syllabus, Realize that the chapters I had this time were half in number than what I had on the previous exam. Ecstatic, I procrastinated and watched a movie. MUCH later on Wednesday night, when I finally punched myself to study, I realized that the chapters were half because they were twice the size of the normal chapters.. AND HELLA DIFFICULT!
I . Almost . Shat . My . Pants . On . Seeing . The . Chapters.


... on the realz.

I had a million panic attacks at the same time, which I used to my advantage and started studying with a big thud. I realized it was REALLLYY late and I was almost asleep, So I did something I shouldn't have. Just for a quick overview about my studying habits, I study late into the night with green tea and alot of dry fruits. This time?
A Monster (that's what it's called) EXTRA STRENGTH. I was like, yeah whateverrr extra strength BRING IT AWN ( cause I can drink the normal Monster can and go to sleep right after 45 mins) but this drink right here playa, this baby packed so much punch I felt someone injected me WITH NZT (ANYBODY WHO HAS WATCHED LIMITLESS WILL UNDERSTAND THIS HAHAHA)

It felt like I was a kindergarten student with 5 snicker bars and 2 redbulls.

I was in a state of ecstacy. I HAVE NEVER had quite the punch ever before from Caffeine. Over the years, I think I developed an opposite reaction to Caffeine, IT ALWAYS MAKES ME FALL ASLEEP! but this drink kept me awake. through the night. Sleeping only 2 hours and driving to work/school. Believe me when I say It was like being EXTERMELY drunk right in the morning, I mean it. I couldn't drive for my life, I WAS ALMOST certain I was gonna hit something or someone. 

Energy Blend? 5000mg!
Taurine 2000mg
Ginseng 400mg

*end post here on 4/17/11*

*4/19/11* WADAP GOIZZZZZZ!
Okay  here we go again. I'm here at my school library continuing this post.

ANYWAYS, So by the time I made it to school I was still VERY clumsy, lethargic.. just weird. I guess half past 12 things got a little better when I made it to the other campus and finally finished studying for my exam at 2. Okay here, I HAVE to say that I LOVE MY BIOLOGY PROFESSOR!! SHE IS THE BEST PROFEZZUR EVAAAAAAAAAAR! SHE SCANS THE SCANTRONS RIGHT THERE AND GIVES US THE RESULT WITHIN 30 MINS AND GIVES US BREAKS AND EVERYTHING OMG I LOVE HER!
SO ANYWAYS.. I GOT THE HIGHEST IN CLASS (I GUESS)!! WOOOOOOOO THEN I WENT TO CHEMISTRY AND FOUND OUT I ALSO GOT THE HIGHEST THARR! DAS WAASAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP!!!
THEN I had a breezy chemistry lab which was more like *dilute some substance, put on bunsen burner, forget about it and have fun tym wid class*
and that's exactly what I did. Found out that the guy who sits behind me, his dad works in baylor at a big position at something. Now let me say something here, BAYLOR. IS. MY. DREAM. MED. SCHOOL. I AM ABOUT TO APPLY TO IT.
Baylor University is a private Baptist university located in Waco, Texas. Founded in 1845, Baylor is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and is a member of the Big 12 Conference and the colloquial Southern Ivy League. Baylor is an internationally ranked research institution. Baylor’s undergraduate program is renowned for having one of the highest turnouts of undergraduate students go on to attend medical school. Baylor is distinguished for its programs in business, law, music, philosophy, theology, science disciplines, nursing, and political science. Baylor is among the elite 10% of US colleges and universities to have a Phi Beta Kappa chapter." -Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baylor_University

I instantly decided to frandship him. Not just because of his dad, but also because he and I have the same prospective career and It's good to know someone who'se going in the same direction as you.
ANYWAYS AFTER THAT, BUSY WEIRD WEEK BUT THEN CAME THE WEEKEND!!
FYI, My family is big on food. I mean WE CAN COOK. LIKE FORREALZ. PEOPLE REMEMBER OUR PARTIEZ 4EVAZ.
On every friday, saturday and sunday, We BBQ in the backyard and just sit there all evening talking, eating, laughing and having a great time till it gets dark. And a majority of this is due to the ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL WEATHER Houston has these days! I rarely used to go to the backyard but now I can't seem to get away from it!
Here are some pictures from the bbq on the first weekend :



HELLLZ YEAAH



Shrimps on the grill



Raw Patties



You may think they don't look good, but believe me THEY WERE THE BEST BURGERS EVER
[disregard the burnt bun, my fault]
[Yet to be completed with the sauce, more cheese if needed, carmalized onions and mushrooms]



YESSSIRRRR




Beautiful weather!



Chicken Fajitas with Guacamole and Sour cream with Carmalized onions and mushrooms with some homemade burgers




T-bone cut steaks with the homemade burgers
This is the workhorse behind all that


Oh by the way, These are the best cupcakes I've ever had albeit a bit expensive! [$4 for one cupcake]


This is what my mom cooked me for my lunch! I LOVE HER!
 Fried Talapia with some amazing thick sauce and boiled asparagus with mash potatoes with some sauce


Oh and I went to town center just to chill out and discovered this amazing thing from Ben & Jerry's =

I LOVED IT! two scoops of icecream, whipped cream, Hot fudge chocolate on top with an amazing brownie at the bottom. the mixture of hot fudge and the icecream and the brownie aaand the whipped cream was scrumptious.


oh btw, right after the bbq at our place on sunday we went to a friend's house and stayed up all night.. BBQ'ing! HAHAHA I know I know.. but we ALSO played xbox, poker and blackjack and watched SuperJail [this hilarious animated thing]




  ALSO, WE WENT ON A PICNIC to Galveston Island right past Jamaica beach way into the corner somewhere secluded! It was amazing.. but I don't have ANY pictures of it because my phone's battery was dead AND i didn't want to ruin it with the water and sand etc however I took alot of pictures with my dad's phone!


By the way, did anyone notice the gas prices creeping upto $4 a gallon for premium?!?!
I filled my car up and instead of the usual $70, this is what I got :

@&#@&*#@&*#*@*#@*#@ !?!?!!


Anyways I have to end it here for this post.. And There's an error while saving it so I think it won't even get through SO ON THAT BOMBSHELL, ITS TIME TO SAY GOODBYE!

This post does NOT need a title. . .

Today.... Everything was going well. I woke up early, dressed up as usual, got to know I had to drop my brother's wife somewhere far but I had to go there anyways because I chose a bank that was millions of miles away from my place so anywayss the drive was beautiful through the country side (Sort of) and on the way back I stopped at Wal-Mart for some groceries.. This is when things got bad. I was shopping around, I came across this drink I never tried. It looked like flavored water, and because I don't drink Soda's, I decided to have a go at it. I bought it, went back to my car, sat down, got settled, and as soon as I opened the bottle... all hell broke lose. Half of the bottle sprang out vigorously and covered the whole of me and the car's dashboard.

Nope, you still don't quite grasp the magnitude of this disaster. Imagine It's 12:00 pm and It's just the start of a beautiful day and you have TONS of work to do but hey, thats all good as long as you're in a good mood right? THIS is when out of no where this happens. Imagine shaking 5 big 2 litre bottles of coke and then opening all of them together. That's how big it was. It was one of those times when I really felt the urge to take out a gun and shoot something. My suite = ruined
My shirt = ruined
My car = ruined (well, I managed to clean it up)
My mood = COMPLETELY RUINED

I felt sticky, retarded, angry, frustrated for the rest of the trip to yet another bank and more grocery shopping. I sped the way back, swarming through traffic like I was riding a bike, not driving a SUV (Btw, I still wonder why media always says AN SUV instead of A SUV... we don't say AN SUNNY DAY.. confusing). Anyways, I was pissed.
Well I finally got done with my chores  half of my chores, ran home, changed, relaxed at home a little, talked to my best friend ChickLitGirl (She's like an antidote for anger and frustration) for an hour, and then headed back to work.

Then I got back home at 7, and I had alot of school work to do. Well, Its 12:36 AM and I JUST got done with my homework. Now? I have to study for a quiz. Ain't no way in sweet hell I'm doing that tonight, I'll just leave that for the last minute before class.

Anyways, here are the morning pictures of the drive to the bank :






FOR ALL OF YOU OUT THERE, PLEASE.. NEVER UNLEASH THIS MONSTER WITHOUT EXTREME CARE :



P.S My friend thinks I upload very pointless pictures.. If you think the same, I'm sorry but I love taking random pictures AND IT WILL STAY THE SAME. DEAL WITH IT!

anddd on THAT BOMBSHELL, IT'S TIME TO SAY GOODBYE! (I stole that from TopGear LOL)

Fungus Among us



AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I LOVE THAT ALBUM NAME! I LOVE INCUBUS! I LOVE LOVE LOVE THEIR SONGSSSS!
I was trying to learn how to play Incubus - Echo on the guitar but looks like it won't be done anytime soon - partly due to me sucking at guitaring and the other half due to my schedule being so tighttt. Sometimes I hardly get time to even eattt. I'm in the school library right now.. Have to study for a chemistry quiz but like always, I'll just procrastinate and study in the class on my phone a minute before the quiz LOL.
anyyyyywaysss.. Here are a few songs I LOOOOVE by incubus:





That deep warm feeling when you listen to this song.. It's just out of this world. I don't know how to emphasize enough my love for this song. And on that note, I won't.

And THIS :






and obviously this :






ANDDD THIS:




I obviously have alot more, but I don't want to flood this post with videos!

The intricate details of the song where so many different individual sounds come together perfectly is just crazy. I always get goosebumps when I hear any song by Incubus. Specially the above four.


ANYWAYS.. So I HAD MY INDUCTION CEREMONY ON SATURDAY! OFFICIALLLYY A PHI THETA KAPPA MEMBER BUOYYZZZZZZ!!

IT WAS PRETTY GOOD! I was a little nervous about giving a speech infront of the crowd but Thankfully the new inductees didn't have to do it. They just announced our names as everyone cheered for us and we went on the stage to meet the president, all the chapter officers and their respective presidents etc and sign the membership book! WOOOOOOOOT!  (I was thinking of putting up my picture here but I don't think alot of people do that [or do they?] so I'm not sure if that's okay)

Other than that, I went to a Pakistani wedding of my brother's friend. All I have to say is.. no one had any idea wtf was up. Me and my brother were the first ones on the venue (as you can always expect in weddings) and the groom's family came up to us asking my brother to organize everything. We sincerely thought that was a joke, but no. THEY ACTUALLY WANTED HIM TO ORGANIZE HALF OF THE STUFF. They were making up the whole game plan on the go! No one had ANY idea what to do which was VERY weird because when my sister got married, we prepared MONTHS in advance just to make sure everything goes perfectly fine on the big day so this all seemed very alienish. Thankfully, we knew the wedding would bore us to death hence we called over some of our friends, thanks to whom we were able to survive the night. HOWEVER, there was ONE thing that kept me going despite the sheer phaylness of everything: FOOD! I COULD NOT WAIT TO EAT I WAS STARVING TO DEAAAAATH (yes, I sometimes do go to weddings JUST for the food LOL) but very unexpectedly (because the groom was like SUPER RICH and I thought the menu would be crazy good), the food was.. well the food.. okay it was bad. It was cold and bland. but whatever I was really happy for the groom he looked extremely happy and so did the bride and in the end, watching them together made my day. We took a picture with them and left for Cafe Agora (which is our weekend hangout and ya'll have to check it out : Cafe Agora) but we realized that because it was Sunday and we all had work the next day, it was better to call it a night and rush home to sleep. SO my sunday wasn't as eventful as Saturday, but it was better than playing xbox all day and gardening (thanks to my mom, who's new hobby is to use me as a mexican (no racism, i love mexican folks) gardener all day long). OH SHIT BTW THAT REMINDS ME, I DID SOME GARDENING IN TEH FRONT YAAAARD ON SATURDAY TOO!









I dug up 3 inches of the above, put in some new top soil, then added the seeds, and then added more soil, and finally added mulch! I CANT WAIT FOR THE FLOWERS TO GROW! I think I'm beginning to like gardening LOL. Oh and because I was gardening after aaages, This is where my lawnmower slowly crept to amidst all the extra stuff filling up in the garage:


Can you spot it? :P


I guess I didn't get time to tell you guys that I have some weird hobbies. one of which is late night driving. I just looooooove to drive late at night when there's nobody on the road. No matter how much I drive in the day, I would love to drive at night! here are some pictures I took yesterday night just driving around (Sorry for the fuzzy/blurry pics, hard to shoot pics and drive at the same time :D)






aaah so soooothing. This + incubus = a good night sleep!

OH BY THE WAY, I just got back from my American Literature class and I found out I got a 100 on the exam. WOOOOOOT I LOVE AMERICAN LITERATURE!!!

work is busy busy busy these days but veryyy exciting too! Moving into a new (and my OWN OFFICE LOCATION) in a few weeks.. fingers crossed!

ALRIGHT GUYS I HAVE A LIFE OUTSIDE OF BLOGSPOT AND I HAVE A STOMACH WHICH I HAVE TO FILL HAHAHAH jkk I'm really hungry and I.NEED.TO.EAT.SOMETHING NAAAAAO SO IMMA BOUNCE

LATERSSSSSSSS
