Fort Hood, Texas.

"The killer will be met with justice, in this world and the next"- President Barack Obama, Fort Hood.

.........and the next, meaning judgement day.
I was watching the ceremony with my mom, and to see the faces of the attendees; that was a sad moment. This guy killed 13 people, ranging from 19-65 years old.
Among the 13 was a lady who was pregnant.
Obama spoke abut every single one of these individuals. What they did, why they did it, and so forth.
R.I.P. to the soldiers that didn't make it.

I forgot

...to mention that the Yankees won the World Series. I don't really care for it at all. But since I'm living in the middle of it,(The Bronx), I had to say it.

"Go Yankees, yay" *yawns*

How to make Beet Lip gloss.

I was checking my e-mail, and I saw an ingredient from Ideal bite New York Bite. Basically it's a website, that encourages you to do things the green way.
So in the e-mail there was an ingredient on how to make your own lip gloss.
I mean I made my own lip gloss about two summers ago. It was chocolate, and it came out good. And yes I did use it, and it tasted so good.
Anywho, their main ingredient was Beet. Who would of thought? And the good part is, it will give your lips a tint. Think about it. Instead of buying lip gloss, containing ALL those chemicals. You could make your own, and your helping the earth by doing it. Here are the ingredients, along with the directions.

Beet Lip Gloss.

Beet Lip Gloss 10 minutes; makes 1/2 ounce What You Need:(local and organic whenever possible)
1 beet (light-colored red beets yield a red shade; darker ones get you a Merlot color)
3 drops olive oil
2 Tbsp powdered sugar
1 capsule of vitamin E oil
Repurposed lip gloss container or pillbox
Directions: 1. Remove beet from stem, wash, and chop into 1-inch pieces.2. Place chopped beet in microwave-safe container and heat on high for 1 minute until it releases juice.3. Pour beet juice and the rest of the ingredients in a small bowl and mix thoroughly (add sugar by the teaspoon until it reaches your desired thickness).4. Empty the finished blend into a small jar, preferably a repurposed lip gloss container. Let the mixture sit for 2-3 hours to thicken, then apply as you like. It'll keep for 6-8 months.

Another 4 years..........

of Bloomberg. I'm not stoked or anything. I mean he DID mess up the school system. But he did some good. For me, one good thing he did was trying to make New York a greener city by planting more trees, and limiting cars to drive certain areas. And extending bike lanes.
After his victory, he made a victory speech. I should have recorded everything he said. He made so many promises for the people of this city. I hope he really comes through with it.

So here's to you Mr. Mike Bloomberg,...........to another 4 years.

Daylight Savings Time.

Over the weekend we had to set our clocks one hour back. I was unaware, and was watching Mission Impossible III. But then I checked the time, and 45 minutes went by. I knew I watched more than half of it, but it was telling me that it's been on showing for 45 minutes. I knew something was wrong, so I started to look at the other clocks in my house. Then I came to the conclusion that the cable box is messed up..........again. So I went to sleep.................got up Sunday morning, and found out that it was DST.
Where did this come from? The whole idea of setting the clock 1 hour back.............
Well, that's one thing I learned from college Modern World History.
it all started during the World War. I believe it was the 1st World War. Anywho......the American soldiers wanted more sunlight to plan their attack on the enemy, so they decided to change stuff up.................................................They changed the time.
