. holiday gear that teachers wear around the holidays
. things that say stuff like: babygirl, your boyfriend likes me better, blondes do it better, & so forth - ugH!
. trends, for the simple fact that they're in style - if it's cute & i like it & it's my style, i'm all for it. but this esmerelda stuff that they got from the hunchback of notre dame?? esmerelda was do'n the damm thing and she look'd cute. but it's just not me. and the cute lil sequin shoes? so cute. i seen them since i was litto cuz thas how asians do: cute. but it's just not me. bout 3 quarters of the stuff that girls sport ryte now though? it seems like they do it jus becuz that's what's in stores ryte now, that's what on tv. i hate that - think for yourselves! you still know how to do that ryte??

pS - george clooney is sexy for be'n in the game for so long
it's kinda ironic though that all these ppl are visual props on the big screen and that i cant think of any characters that i've read on.. but i think that it has to do with the way i view & relate to ppl in movies and the way i do ppl in books
