Thinking about re watching the entire series. I may be on a Wentworth Miller binge this week lol. I hated the last season of Prison Break but enjoyed the first season SO much when it first aired...it could be fun to test it out again.
one of my favorite movies of all time. every few months I get into this loop with this movie where I watch it over and over again for weeks. I've been doing it since It first came out in 2003.
It's just.....a work of art for me, as a movie critic put it. Amazing performance by all, especially Anthony Hopkins, Nicole Kidman and Wentworth Miller
I used to be a swimmer as a kid. Competed a few times and had to train almost every day either before or after school. I quit after a couple of years ago and dedicated myself fully to TaeKwonDo which I got pretty far in....all the way to red belt. One more step and I woulda been a Black belt b*tch on heels lol.
I'm very happy to say that i'm once again joining a swimming club and will be training TaeKwonDo as well!!!
The swimming membership comes with access to Gym,massage, dinning , golf(snooze) ...so many festive things. i'm pumped! I don't have to tell you what swimming can do for your body.
Since I plan on doing a lot of rock climbing this year, I need to really build my body aka temple and make it strong so I can do every single thing my heart desires. My heart usually desires things that can kill you (rock climbing, deep sea diving, bungee jumping) so you can't be too prepared :))))
on my way to nr 63 of 100 of Bikram Yoga NYC. I can hear Patrick Lynch's voice already 'What are you doing Deborah? what is that?....DO AS I SAY!!!' lol. Thanks to Bikram yoga, Pole workout and crossfit I'm noticing alot of change in my body mostly in my arms (which i'm loving!) and my butt which has unfortunately shrunk :( i'll have to get on those squats. I'm more dedicated than ever to be in great health, great shape and great spirits :) the first two usually pave way for nr 3 so..so far so good! x
Every time I watch this commercial I find myself thinking omg someone wrote this after me lol.
I've been accused of being this dramatic more than once. If I'm as hot as her while yelling my lungs out like that...I'm sure it's not a big problem:)
and the Italian actor in this commerical is so delicious. He can yell at me in italian aaaaalll day
Tonight's pole dance session was delicious. I learned a new pole trick!!! I'm telling you...me and that pole are bff's baby.
When it was time to dance, I had my song picked out for my turn on the floor/pole 'that's what it's made for' by Usher.
Oooh My E-creature was ALL. OVER.IT! with some songs...you play them in class and think it will unleash this crazy sexy spirit in you..but can fall completely flat with your E-creature on the corner somewhere all dressed up in sexy raunchy ensemble... ready to do damage but instead royally pissed off because the SONG ISNT RIGHT! so she's huffing and puffing staring you up and down going 'who told you I'd vibe to that????'
Not tonight. 'that's what it's made for' aroused my E-creature to no end. I felt sexy and beautiful and was in seduction mode from the first sound.
The beat fit my body perfectly and every movement felt like such a gift. That part at the 2:00 minute mark where usher sings 'Go on and hit it'....uuuuughh I just loose it.
What can I say....it's what my body was made for :)
"That's What It's Made For"
Ooh, yeah baby yeaah Uhhuhhuhhuhhmmm Yeaah babe Ooh, ooh Oh, yeah Listen up I got a story to tell Check it out now And I know you can identify with this one Yeah yeah yeah, oh Check it out
Figured I'd hit it and quit it just one night Got so good to me doubled back twice, I Musta been outta my mind Knowin' I don't wanna I'm about to nut up Guess it's too late to turn back now Can't apologize cuz that ain't my style Shorty rainin' wet Up in my ear talkin' 'bout I got what you came for This here got your name on it

Raw dog is a never I know I know better Heard her whisper Don't worry I'm safe Didn't matter cuz it's already to late I was lost in the sauce, dead wrong And I ain't stoppin' now Parleein' in the bush again Didn't think about what I was puttin' in it

[Girl:] I want you to sweat it all out [Usher:] I'mma get it baby [Girl:] Get it, take it [Usher:] Ok [Girl:] Take it [Usher:] I'mma get up inside

And thats only the beginning (God) I might as well just go to sleep here (damn) 2
Next time I'm trying these songs out. If my E-creature approves it'll be a party :)
The song I decided to greet today with was 'Not tonight' by The Deportees.
I needed a kick. I woke up with vicious a headache kinda... hangoverish although I no longer drink and havent had anything to drink in a long time. so it was pretty odd. It could be dehydration but I thought I was being pretty good with the water thing.. I even have alarms set for when to drink a bottle of water because Im SO bad at it on my own.
Who knows.
Thing song Is my ace though for days like these. It has a way of awakening my spirit and making it want to twirl in the rain and kiss.
with that song on repeat I did my whole Avocado mask routine, danced in my room,smiled and thought 'I'm gonna make myself extra beautiful today' and I'm going to just go with the flow and allow the day to unfold exactly how it wants to unfold. ha, as if we really control anything at the end of the day!
I picked out a random nail polish to paint my toes and finger nails and it happened to be the one shade of color i'd never willingly pick on my own.... green. It had been an extra color in a set of nail polish I'd purchased ages ago. uggh I never knew how to dress with that shade of green on my nails but there is a first for everything so here I go. I washed the mask of my face and picked out my outfit to match with these nails and...it honestly turned
out pretty nice :)
Pocahontas.....ahhh I Love this movie still today. The song 'If I never knew you' is One of my favorite songs of the soundtrack and was not featured in the actual movie....it was cut out. But if you own the DVD you'll see the full scene with this song playing.
one of the most beautiful romantic songs I've ever heard.
Lyrics below:
If I Never Knew You
If I never knew you If i never felt this love I would have no inkling of How precious life can be
And if I never held you I would never have a clue How at last I'd find in you The missing part of me.
In this world so full of fear Full of rage and lies I can see the truth so clear In your eyes So dry your eyes
And I'm so grateful to you I'd hve lived my whole life through Lost forever If I never knew you
If I never knew you I'd be safe but half as real Never knowing I could feel A love so strong and true
I'm so grateful to you I'd have lived my whole life through Lost forever If I never knew you
I thought our love would be so beautiful Somehow we'd make the whole world bright I never knew that fear and hate could be so strong all they'd leave us were these wispers in the night But still my heart is saying we were right
Oh if I never knew you There's no moment I regret If i never felt this love Since the moment that we met I would have no inkling of If our time has gone too fast How precious life can be... I've lived at last...
I thought our love would be so beautiful Somehow we'd make the whole world bright I thought our love would be so beautiful We'd turn the darkness into light And still my heart is saying we were right we were right
And if I never knew you If I never knew you I'd have lived my whole life through Empty as the sky Never knowing why Lost forever If I never knew you
Yeeees!!! I just discovered that 'The x-files' is on netflix. This is very exciting since I basically remember NOTHING about the show outside of the fact that It was my favorite show as a little girl. I had a whole routine when this show came on: Brownies, hot chocolate, chips, ice cream, pop corn....yea , I know.it wasn't the healthiest routine lol BUT it was cozy. of course now the older and wiser Hailee will have a modified but equally cozy snacks when watching 'The X-files' all over again.

LYRICS: "Candy Rain"
My love, do you ever dream of Candy coated raindrops? You're the same, my candy rain
Have you ever loved someone So much you thought you'd die? Giving so much of yourself It seems the only way
Tell me what you want and I And I will give it to you 'Cause you are
My love, do you ever dream of Candy coated raindrops? You're the same, my candy rain
My love, did you ever dream That it could be so right? I never thought that I would find All that I need in life
All I want, all I need now, I know I know I found it in you, I found it in you 'Cause you are
My love, do you ever dream of Candy coated raindrops? You're the same, my candy rain
My love, do you ever dream of Candy coated raindrops? You're the same, my candy rain
My love, do you ever dream of Candy coated raindrops? You're the same, my candy rain
Candy coated raindrops Candy coated raindrops
My love, do you ever dream of Candy coated raindrops? You're the same, my candy rain
My love, do you ever dream of Candy coated raindrops? You're the same, my candy rain
Loved today's class. and I'll tell you why this one was so delicious!
I slept very poorly last night. I'm not sure why. ok that's a lie...i'm hooked on Roswell again (Tv show). Max and Liz are so effin HOT together. The joy I feel from rewatching old shows I used to love is unique lol. I'm so glad to be experiencing it all again that time just flew. it was 2am by the time I realized i'd bing watched most of season 1. But after that I was just too alert to go back to bed. So I painted a bit. Did some reading. finally passed out around 5am but I had a lunch meeting at noon faaaar from where I live so slept 3.5 hours at best. I was exhausted and irritated when I woke up.
I got dolled up, went to my meeting, and decided to take Patrick Lynch's class and trust me.. you do NOT want to be lazy in Patrick's class. He is an amazing teacher, and very strict about you doing every single posture like it's life or death and I LOVE that about his class! just wasn't sure I could handle it today.
I felt weak and tired. But I'm dedicated to my journey so I went and took my whiny ass to class.
THANK GOD I did. after class with Patrick, I felt so re-energized and happy. Gone was all the irritation and fatigue I felt into my bones.
I'm sure i'll be out like a light tonight but I'm glad I had the discipline to stay loyal to my path and journey even when I had every single thought and wish to abandon it. I'm getting stronger! mentally AND physically:)

Can't WAIT to see this movie! Looks super funny! plus the ever so delicious Liam Neeson is in it which means I'll be watching it at least once for him alone :) giovanni ribisi is such a talented actor so I'm excited to see him in this as well. Charlize Theron I've admired since she blew me away in 'Monster'. Sarah Silverman is outrageous and funny which are qualities I appreciate in a woman lol. This is going to be a fun experience.
Congrats to Seth MacFarlane for putting together such an awesome project!
I just relaunched my vlog! It's more like starting over really since I got rid of so many vlog videos over the years but I'm excited to be doing it again! Check out my latest vlog update here
One of my FAVORITE songs of all time. Sarah Mclachlan hits those high notes so effortlessly and the beat is just perfection. It will always and forever remind me of 'Roswell' even though I heard the song long before I saw an episode of that show. For those of you who are a few years (erhm) younger than I, 'Roswell' was our version of 'twilight' when I was in High school. Max Evans and Liz Parker were such a hot couple for me. I remember hoping that a handsome alien that looked just like max would come and rescue me from my dull high-school years.
I mean let's be real....The day Max walked into Liz Parker's life is when that girl started LIVING! He made everything so exciting for her and loved her so generously. There were no mind games or any kind of games involved....he always just wanted her and he let her know that. And that just made me want HIM more lol. Who doesn't want a man like that? uugghh and those make out sessions....holy moly! It was so effin steamy and Max was so sexy without a shirt on! thank goodness they were generous with those scenes :)))
Sometimes they cast the perfect actors for the perfect roles. They were so beautiful to me and their chemistry was electric. I think Netflix is showing it now actually so I might watch that from the start since it's been a few years :)
This is so unexpected. maybe it's just me but I had no idea Jena Malone sings or writes lyrics! She sounds a bit like Sarah McLachlan who I've been meaning to write about.
Check out Jena's song with with band 'The shoe' here
I miss jack & Marin! Patrick and Annie! The whole fantasy of a sexy man's man in Alaska being all....manly and...stuff lol. Jack was such an insanely delicious character :( I got all nostalgic when I caught an episode of 'Hart of Dixie' the other day. I feel like 'Hart of Dixie' has that similar vibe (small town, quirky characters....big city gal relocating to a small town) but it doesn't fill those MIT shoes at all for me. HOD has it's own charm and it's cute absolutely. There was just something special about 'Men in Trees' for me. I got so attached to all the characters. they reminded me of so many people I know being from a small town in Sweden myself. Marin Frist is a hot mess so I guess I could identify with that lol. Her chemistry with Jack was evident....and apparently very real since the actors playing Jack and Marin ( James Tupper and Anne Heche) divorced their spouses and ended up marrying each other by the end of the show. I enjoyed Terri (played by the talented Mario Cantone) Elmo's only hair dresser. I was always looking forward to his scenes- Amazing comic timing and on point every time! I loved the entire show, every single episode from start to finish. I couldn't wait for Jack and Marin to end up together. every time something went wrong between them I'd down a gallon of ice cream right along with Marin and when they finally hooked up for real I was genuinely excited and happy for the rest of that week as if close friends of mine had finally found happiness. I grew fond of their story and growth as a couple and appreciated the way the writers didn't overdo anything. It seemed like a real relationship working through real problems and because they both wanted to end up together...it wasn't all that hard to forgive each other. It was sweet and it gave hopeless romantic girls like me courage to stay madly in love with love and romance ...because it's just what we want, dammit! :)) We want the Jack & Marin, Lois & Clark Kent, Mr Big & Carrie, Jack & Rose love story. These stories are only amazing because they're beautiful tales of Love. Without it....what's the point? why do we do anything if our goal isn't to love, build and create something....anything with another human being? It's that ability to connect so deeply that makes us so unique and beautiful.
So with all of that said, I'm going to watch Men in Trees all over again! it's been a few years so I don't remember all the episodes anymore which is GREAT!
Bring on the heartache and dramz, jack. Ice cream...check! candles....check! wine....(well wine has been replaced with Apple juice since I no longer drink alcohol but close enough)...check!
Tomorrow is the birthday of my favorite person in the world. My oldest companion whom I've know for all my life.my little brother Abel.
He's turning 21!!! hold up.....when did I stop being 21? now wait just a doggone minute... googling 'how to slow down the aging process'..... botox came up quite a alot. yea.....I think i'll keep looking lol.
No seriously, Little bro is turning 21...wow. People aren't kidding when they say time flies.
I'm SO proud of him. He works his tukhus off everyday at Columbia university (yupp little bro is ivy league fly!) and is such a good hearted, kind spirited young man. He's been on Deans list since he started at Columbia which is really not a surprise to me at all. He is in his element. He was never confused about his path like I was. I had my artistic impulses pulling me in ten different directions since I was a fetus I honestly had a hard time figuring myself out until I got old enough to understand that I don't need to label myself. I am an actress, I am a painter, I am a song writer, I am a musician... I am. I'd never change that about myself for anything in the world but I've always admired the clarity and focus my brother always had from such a young age. I never had that. He loves to learn. that's his main passion and he has and continues to pursue his education with such dedication and enthusiasm that it's honestly fascinating to watch. His growth is so beautiful to me and I sometimes wonder if I tell him that enough....how remarkable and mind blowing he is to me. I wonder if he knows how I brag about him to everyone I meet....how I totally use the fact that he's a Columbia student to score cool points heheheh:)))
I wonder if he knows how loved and adored he is by his family, How we root for him everyday....how I carry him in my heart and that If I could wish for anything in this world, it's for HIS hopes and dreams to come true...for HIS hard work to pay off, for him to feel pride and content within himself...for him to be happy, at peace, joyous, vibrant and in love with the world and his life. All the hard work is only worth it if the endgame is happiness. I wonder if he knows he's my little Rock Star. I'm right to wonder if he knows I care. I was very cruel to him when we were growing up to the point where I'm sure he thought I hated him. It's one of my deepest regrets that what my own internal struggles to find a solid ground to stand on as a teen turned out to be such an all consuming overwhelming battle that I took my frustrations over it all out on my family, mainly my little brother who had done nothing to deserve it and landed on the conclusion that I simply must just hate him. and you know what? even then he STILL showed up to support and love me. I can't tell you how that makes me feel. I can't take any of those actions back but I can make damn sure he knows right now today how loved and precious he is.
He impresses all his professors who get so surprised by his knowledge of the world at such a young age! My brother is a freakin living breathing encyclopedia ! My goodness, sometimes i'll crack a joke saying something that's totally incorrect and he'll start spitting out facts and details about things I have NO CLUE about. watching him and I have a conversation is one of the funniest things in the world.
Our mom is our homie which is awesome. I don't know a lot of families that are as close as we are. Our fights are no less than a 9.5 on the richter scale but we love harder than we fight and there aren't enough numbers in the world to measure how deep our love for eachother runs. we have each others backs always and that will never change.
I'm going to do my very best to make my little brother's 21st Birthday a day he'll remember forever where he can feel special, loved and doted on by his family.
The little family that could. That's us baby. Happy birthday Rock star, get ready for some awesomeness tomorrow cause it's all about you handsome!
Poseidon hotel in Fiji. This is so gorgeous and visually stunning! wow..it would be the most romantic getaway ever ♥. I could get my fill of the ocean (if that's even possible) and feel like the little mermaid in her underwater palace :) scuba diving in the Fiji islands has been on my list for ages, and don't even get me started on the food! Ahh the delicious food just makes me long for this trip even more! I could read and paint for hours in a corner so inspired by the calm and serenity....I can picture all of it. I've got So much living left to do :) fun! x
