Journal Entry 1/28/10

Well, I disagree with our sub on the subject of the iPad. While the name sucks, I think it will be completely sustainable. The appeal of having something similar but more user interactive than a computer on the market available, will definitely appeal to consumers. However, the real swim or sink scenario will come around when Apple has to decide on a price. If it is too expensive than it will scare consumers off.

I know upon my first viewing, I really decided that I wanted it.

Journal Entry 1/26/09

Well, seeing as I cannot use phone apps because I have a regular phone unlike the fancy schmancy iPhones (that I am totally jealous of), I don't know much about phone apps. I guess if I could invent an ideal phone app, it would consist of showing me the coolest makeup looks and instructions to achieving them. I'm alright with makeup but having instructions always helps if you're a little confused on some part. OR the app could go back and for between the makeup thing and an update on the day's political activities of our nation's governing bodies. You never know when a state senator is going to be caught cheating on his wife.

I think the app would be pretty much amazing an my most frequently used. Actually, I think everybody would use it. EVERY DAY.

Journal Entry 1/22/10

I would totally name a tv show about my life "All Made-up".
I'd call it this because of my insane love for makeup, and because politicians tend to bs their way through a lot of their interviews or speeches. It seems appropriate to me because most people have either the image of Sami: The Politician or Sami: The Make-up Fiend. However, I imagine the show would encase more than just those two surface level images of me. I do actually do other things, I love running, I like baking Super Secret Sami Cookies, I am addicted to watching Bones, and dresses make me insanely happy.
I think a show about my life might get dull though because despite my passion for everything, when I go home I like to chill and just cool down.

Journal Entry 1/20/10

So the other day I used the vocab word "Proximity" while my mother and I were watching the news. There was a story about bikers and my mom, an avid runner like myself, didn't get the story. I told her, "Mom, it's all about proximity. It this story doesn't necessarily concern you, but it has everything to do with this whole group of people!"
To that my mother responded, "bikers just get in the way of real athletes."

Ah the wise exchange of words from the previous generation to the next.

Journal Entry 1/6/09

A dream house. That's an odd thing for me to describe. I'm not exactly architectually creative. But lets give this a go.

-White stone balcony over the entrance
-Red oak doors
-Entire house made of only grey stone (But it has to be light grey)
-Wood framed windows
-Old world themed structure
-Overhanging lamp structures made of iron that is painted black instead of ceiling lights
-Wood floors all downstairs
-Winding staircase reminiscent of a bad horror film
-Black roof with the shingles that edge the end of the roof curved sharply down towards the ground
-Stone gargoyles, nuff said
-Black gating around the entire structure
- Elaborate castle-inspired tops the the roofs
-Stone path leading up to the house and through the gates
-Just old looking. I love the old feel.

Its a nice thought:)
