On being alone and lonely. Apparently.
Posted by: curiousillusion on: October 21, 2009
My mom and I got into it last night, to put it in a nutshell: she wanted me to attend a function of a friend of hers that I did not want to attend. It was my decision a few weeks ago, then last night she just decided I should go. The end. Ummm… no.
Anyway, [...]
Where I make my dad proud… again.
Posted by: curiousillusion on: October 17, 2009
When I was about 13 years old or so, my dad decided to take me and my younger brother and teach us how to shoot a gun. He bought a revolver (and later a rifle) for us to practice on and we would go to the shooting range and aim at targets. He was all [...]
And all is right with the world…

Okay not really. But it will be in about 10 minutes, when Glee comes on. :) Anyway…
Remember way back when, how I posted about my mother’s belief that a woman should be the one to cook for her husband? How my dad told my mom ages ago that he expects dinner to be on the [...]
Another cold day…
Posted by: curiousillusion on: August 27, 2009
Not much to report. Today was another “cold” day… both literally (my room is freezing, I think it caused my iPhone to turn itself off) and figuratively – my co-workers still aren’t warming up to me. During duty after school I had to step away for a minute and I know I saw the others [...]
Movie review: The Time Traveler’s Wife
Posted by: curiousillusion on: August 15, 2009
Before I get to my spoiler-free movie review, I have to write about why I wanted to throttle my father today. I got home from the gym today and Bay wasn’t anywhere in the room… not on the bed, in her cave, under the bed. Not a good sign. I started looking everywhere she could [...]
Oregon continued
Posted by: curiousillusion on: August 9, 2009
And the trip continues… Saturday we went shopping for my cousin and some last minute wedding things, then a big family dinner, followed by drinks with all the cousins. It was fun and I have a lot of pictures.
Today was the big day, my cousin’s wedding. I wasn’t the bridesmaid or anything but I [...]
Welcome to Oregon
Posted by: curiousillusion on: August 7, 2009
Well I’m writing this Oregon time shortly before midnight – I have survived my first day in here. So far I have been out to lunch with relatives I haven’t seen in ages, walked up a steep part of some mountain (in ballet flats and a skirt, no less!), and spent too much money outlet [...]
Say goodbye to the summer..
Posted by: curiousillusion on: August 4, 2009
Okay well technically summer the *season* is still around, judging by the 100+ degree heat. But my summer, my last days of freedom are here. Actually… today might almost be considered my last day of freedom.
You see, my cousin gets in tonight – he’s only here until Thursday and then we fly to Oregon [...]
Worries and working out
Posted by: curiousillusion on: August 3, 2009
So yesterday marked 1 month since I’ve been going to the gym (well technically 1 month and 1 day) and I got measured to see my progress. Unfortunately, there is very little progress to speak of, and I should see more results after another month or two. But there is *some* news:
I’ve gained 2lbs. However, [...]
Randomness, randomness, everywhere
Posted by: curiousillusion on: July 29, 2009
Today makes 3 months that I’ve been blogging. This is post #101. I’ve had a blast blogging, I love it and I love getting to know so many other bloggers… y’all are so much fun. However, I’ve been blogging daily for the past 3 months and I think that in order to not completely wear [...]
