Bikini Challenge!

Hello :]
how goes it?

well, since its been getting warmer outside here in Houston i tend to work out more, go running at the track that kind of stuff. I like to be outside watching the world and all that, you know? So i dont reallyy like going to a gym, where sweaty people have sat where im sitting, it smells like sweat, strangers looking at me, me hating anyone that breathes. So! Solution! work out at home right? but i dont really know what to do. So i started following this YouTuber ToneUp, and they are awesome! and for girls, so these two are perfect. I did the Bikini abs workout and i love it, its easy and you feel it. Do 3 reps of this video and your set for the day :] Tell me if ya like it!



I love their workout, and their food suggestions :]

So right now im working on 2 new stories for my second blog, but its hard to work on em' with all this essay school papers shit. Im trying to balance it all, like set aside days for essays and days for free writing. Im planning to enter more competitions and contests for short stories too :] my english professor said she would help me. yay! i hope i win a huge contest soon.

So im waiting on my psych class at 9:30am to start, its sort of ugly today, gloomy and rainy :p

i really have nothing to say hahaha, im like rambling on about random things :p sorry!
Catch me on twitter if you want, later!

Radiation spreads to Japans soil and seawater

Radiation spreads to Japan's soil, seawater 4:22 AM CT, Mon, March 28, 2011 msnbc.com news services TOKYO - Workers at Japan's damaged nuclear plant raced to pump out contaminated water suspected of sending radioactivity levels soaring as officials warned Monday that radiation seeping from the complex was spreading to seawater and soil. Mounting obstacles, missteps and confusion at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear complex have stymied emergency workers struggling to cool down the overheating plant and avert a disaster with global implications. The coastal power plant, located 140 miles northeast of Tokyo, has been leaking radiation since a magnitude-9.0 quake on March 11 triggered a tsunami that engulfed the complex. The wave knocked out power to the system that cools the dangerously hot nuclear fuel rods. On Monday, workers resumed the laborious yet urgent task of pumping out the hundreds of tons of radioactive water inside several buildings at the six-unit plant. The water must be removed and safely stored before work can continue to power up the plant's regular cooling system, nuclear safety officials said. Contaminated water in Unit 2 tested at radiation levels some 100,000 times normal amounts, plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Co. said. As officials scrambled to determine the source of the radioactive water, chief Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano said Monday that the contaminated water in Unit 2 appeared to be due to a partial meltdown of the reactor core. A TEPCO spokesman said the presence of radioactive chemicals such as iodine and cesium point to damaged fuel rods as the source. However, pressure inside the containers holding the reactors was stable, indicating any meltdown was only partial, spokesman Kaoru Yoshida said. New readings show contamination in the ocean has spread about a mile farther north of the nuclear site than before. Radioactive iodine-131 was discovered just offshore from Unit 5 and Unit 6 at a level 1,150 times higher than normal, Hidehiko Nishiyama, a spokesman for the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency, told reporters. He had said earlier there was no link between the radioactive water leaking inside the plant and the radiation in the sea. On Monday, though, Nishiyama said he suspects radioactive water from the plant is leaking into the ocean. Closer to the plant, radioactivity in seawater tested about 1,250 times higher than normal last week and climbed to 1,850 times normal over the weekend. Nishiyama said the increase was a concern but the area was not a source of seafood. Experts warned that Japan faced a long fight to contain the world's most dangerous atomic crisis in 25 years. "This is far beyond what one nation can handle — it needs to be bumped up to the U.N. Security Council," said Najmedin Meshkati, of the University of Southern California. "In my humble opinion, this is more important than the Libya no-fly zone." 'Unsexy steps' Murray Jennex, a nuclear power plant expert and associate professor at San Diego State University, said "there's not really a plan B" other than to dry out the plant, get power restored and start cooling it down. "What we're now in is a long slog period with lots of small, unsexy steps that have to be taken to pull the whole thing together," he told Reuters. Japan's nuclear watchdog, the Nuclear Safety Commission, said Monday that its members — government-appointed experts who monitor the atomic industry — believe that the highly radioactive water came from the containment vessel. It did not clearly state that the primary containment vessel, which protects the core, had been breached. The commission warned that radioactive water was seeping from the plant into soil and seawater, NISA official Kenji Kinjo said. Edano, the government spokesman, urged residents to stay out of the 12-mile evacuation zone around the plant, saying contaminants posed a "big" health risk. He was responding to reports that people had been sneaking back in without government approval. Japanese officials and international nuclear experts have generally said the levels away from the plant are not dangerous for humans, who anyway face higher radiation doses on a daily basis from natural substances, X-rays or plane flights. In downtown Tokyo, a Reuters reading on Monday morning showed ambient radiation of 0.20 microsieverts per hour, well within the global average of naturally occurring background radiation of 0.17-0.39 microsieverts per hour. In Yamagata, a town about 70 miles northwest of the stricken plant, the reading was just 0.15. Meanwhile, a strong earthquake shook the region and prompted a brief tsunami alert early Monday. The quake off the battered coast of Miyagi prefecture in the northeast was measured as a magnitude 6.5, the Japan Meteorological Agency said. No damage or injuries were reported, and TEPCO said the quake would not affect work to stabilize the plant. Scores of strong earthquakes have rattled Japan over the past two weeks, adding to the sense of unease across Japan, where the final death toll from the March 11 disasters is expected to top 18,000. Confusion at the plant has intensified fears that the nuclear crisis will last weeks, months or years amid alarms over radiation making its way into produce, raw milk and even tap water as far away as Tokyo. TEPCO officials said Sunday that radiation in leaking water in the Unit 2 reactor was 10 million times above normal — an apparent spike that sent employees fleeing the unit. The day ended with officials saying the huge figure had been miscalculated and offering apologies. "The number is not credible," TEPCO spokesman Takashi Kurita said hours later. "We are very sorry." Then, TEPCO Vice President Sakae Muto said a new test had found radiation levels 100,000 times above normal — far better than the first results, though still very high. The government and nuclear safety agency chastised TEPCO for the latest in a series of missteps. "This sort of mistake is not something that can be forgiven," Edano said sternly Monday. The crisis did not interrupt a yearly rite much loved by the Japanese: the blooming of cherry trees at Tokyo's Yasukuni Shrine. Cherry trees typically begin blooming in the south in March, in the capital days later, and in the chilly north in April. Trees at the Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo began blooming Monday, the country's meteorological agency said.

oh humanity!



I posted this video for a reason, i love the lyrics and right now the lyrics make even more sense, their true and its all so annoying. My close friends will understand why this video makes sense to me, arrg.

Some people are just so stupid, so idiotic, so moronic, that it dose not even make sense! Most people have common sense, you touch a hot stove and you know its hot, it hurt,, it burnt and i wont do it again. But oh, their has to be people who defy this. They go on and touch the stove again, and again, and again. And just when their clutching their bloody and burnt had, they touch the stove again. My old pet hamster Rose has more sense than some people, its pretty amazing. I mean, i guess some people are just raised stupid, they were never taught common sense, but dont you eventually learn it on your own? going through life, your bound to learn it right? Then there are those who are legit born slow, their not stupid, their just slow and actually dont know any better. People who make fun of them, are usually the true morons. Then there are those who choose to be stupid, oh yes, you can choose. Some choose to not further their education, to do drugs( actual drugs like meth), those who decide to not learn more about the world outside their state, those who are narrow minded, those are the fools i cannot stand, who i just refuse to associate with most of the time. Though sometimes its just unavoidable, and you have to just sit back and watch them like the three ring circus they are.

yay for blog venting whooo!!!

SO! im leaving for austin tomorrow and were restricted to one bag a lady :p i can work it haha, but im bringing my yoga mat to sleep on so the floor dosent screw up my back, ya know. ahh i cant wait for thursday! St. Patricks Day plus The Strokes!? its the best combination ever! that, plus magaritas and possible green beer? oh yeah. I honestly just want a sip of green beer for the sake of having green beer :] i know it dosent taste ant different but its St. Pattys Day! or it will be. whoo!! Remember to wear green!

Ill be taking a lot of footage of the show and everything, so check back on, lets say, saturday night for a montage and show videos? :]

Now here are some randoms :]






And ill leave you some tunes to check out! Since its march, its the Anniversary of the death of Selena Quintilla Perez. She was known as the Queen of Tejano, she was shot by her friend and president of her fan club. Selena was 23 when she died, about 3 weeks from her next birthday and her 3 year wedding anniversary to her husband Chris Perez. She was my first inspiration to sig when i was little, i didnt know what i was saying, since it was in spanish, but i sang it. I wanted to be just like Selena. <3 Support, remember and listen

The Lost and Japan


hello! just words today

So i know this has happened to everybody at some point in their life. You have a friend guy/girl, either, and your hanging out all the time, you like total best friends and as soon as they decide to have a boyfriend/girlfriend they totally disappear off the face of the planet and are only heard from when their relationship ends or explodes. Sometimes implodes. I really just feel like ranting about this because its so fucking annoying! its idiotic! you dont have to drop your friends because you now have a man/woman. If they asked you to drop friends because you have a dick and your friend has a vag (or vice versa), that boyfriend/girlfriend might not be worth having. Who asks that of somebody? "oh hey now that were dating, ii have a list of people who you need to never talk to again! :D". And a second thing i cant bare is when someone is dating for only about a week to a month and they are already saying "oooh i loooove him/her so much! were soul mates and i would die with out them", well i hope you do. Of course, ive lost more guy friends than chick friends in this situation. Its annoying. Because what happens is you dont hear from them for a while, the contact you had gets lighter and lighter till there is none, your all of a sudden deleted from their little sites like facebook - any social network really- and you realize, oh shit son i been dropped :o arrg! annoying. Cant you just up front tell my that you are no longer aloud to make your own decisions or decide who your friends are? Atleast then i wont be wondering is you died, were kidnapped, became a zombie. you know. How many of you have had this happen huh? i know you have, i bet all of you have! So, when their little - omg were going to be together forever- relationship ends, you get a text from them, "hey :]" and your sating to yourself hmmm...fuck you :D. oh jeezuz people annoy me to a point that i give up in almost all humanity. i think we all just may be idiots.. -_-"

So i didnt do too much today, mostly ran some errands, got my coffee :] caramal mocha iced <3 haha i cant live with out it. I went to HEB today and was inline to pick up some medication and bam! a fire alarm goes off, it sounded like the ones that would go off at my old highschool for drills, anyway this shit was loud! and since it came out of no where, it scared me lol, i sort of yelped haha. So eveyryone was looking around like " fire hmm? i dont see smoke..*continues to shop*" haha, i swear, if there really was a fire, everyone would have been screwed. Turns out that someone in the kitchen area pushed the fire alarm on accident, and it went on for about ten minutes. I thought my ears were going to either explode or bleed. So ive been thinking of investing into a new camera at some point this year, a good one. Right now i have a small -kodak easy share M341 12.2MP-, its ok for one the go and all but the pictures dont have that great of quality. And i have a -Fugifilm FinePix S7007.1MP-, the fuji is more of the family camera that everyone uses, the kodak is strictly mine. So i dont know much about cameras at all, so if you have any camera suggestions that would help alot!


So, heres another slight JAPAN UPDATE:

Image: A woman cries while sitting on a road amid the destroyed city of Natori, Miyagi Prefecture in northern Japan

The second hydrogen explosion in three days rocked Japan's stricken Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant Monday, sending a massive column of smoke into the air and wounding six workers. It was not immediately clear how much — if any — radiation had been released.
The explosion at the plant's Unit 3, which authorities have been frantically trying to cool following a system failure in the wake of a massive earthquake and tsunami, triggered an order for hundreds of people to stay indoors, said Chief Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano.


The blast follows a similar explosion Saturday that took place at the plant's Unit 1, which injured four workers and caused mass-evacuations. More than 180,000 people have evacuated the area, and up to 160 may have been exposed to radiation.



Japan's nuclear safety agency said six workers were injured in Monday's explosion but it was not immediately clear how, or whether they were exposed to radiation. They were all conscious, said the agency's Ryohei Shomi.
The reactor's inner containment vessel holding nuclear rods was intact, Edano said, allaying some fears of the risk to the environment and public. TV footage of the building housing the reactor appeared to show similar damage to Monday's blast, with outer walls shorn off, leaving only a skeletal frame.
Tokyo Electric Power Co. said radiation levels at plant were 10.65 microsieverts Monday afternoon, significantly under the 500 microsieverts at which a nuclear operator is legally bound to file a report to the government.
But Pentagon officials reported Sunday that helicopters flying 60 miles from the plant picked up small amounts of radioactive particulates — still being analyzed, but presumed to include cesium-137 and iodine-121 — suggesting widening environmental contamination,
A massive column of smoke was seen belching from the Fukushima Daiichi plant's No. 3 unit Monday. Four nuclear plants in northeastern Japan have reported damage. | 














Operators have been dumping seawater into units 1 and 3 in a last-ditch measure to cool the reactors. They were getting water into the other four reactors with cooling problems without resorting to corrosive sea water, which likely makes the reactors unusable.
A meltdown at the No. 3 reactor could be more serious than at the other reactors because it is fueled by both plutonium and uranium, BBC News reported. The others have only uranium fuel.
Earlier, Edano said radioactivity released into the environment so far was so 
small it didn't pose any health threats.
Such statements, though, did little to ease public worries. In a country where memories of a nuclear horror of a different sort during the last days of World War II weigh on the national psyche and national politics, the impact of continued venting of long-lasting radioactivity from the plants is hard to overstate, the New York Times reported.











"First I was worried about the quake," said Kenji Koshiba, a construction worker who lives near the plant. "Now I'm worried about radiation." He spoke at an emergency center in Koriyama, about 40 miles (60 kilometers) from the most troubled reactors and 125 miles (190 kilometers) north of Tokyo.
At the makeshift center set up in a gym, a steady flow of people — mostly the elderly, schoolchildren and families with babies — were met by officials wearing helmets, surgical masks and goggles.
About 1,500 people had been scanned for radiation exposure, officials said.
Up to 160 people, including 60 elderly patients and medical staff who had been waiting for evacuation in the nearby town of Futabe, and 100 others evacuating by bus, might have been exposed to radiation, said Ryo Miyake, a spokesman from Japan's nuclear agency. It was unclear whether any cases of exposure had reached dangerous levels.
A foreign ministry official briefing reporters said radiation levels outside the Daiichi plant briefly rose above legal limits, but had since declined significantly.
msnbc.com
Edano said none of the Fukushima Daiichi reactors was near the point of complete meltdown, and he was confident of escaping the worst scenarios.
Officials, though, have declared states of emergency at the six reactors where cooling systems were down — three at Daiichi and three at the nearby Fukushima Daini complex
The U.N. nuclear agency said a state of emergency was also declared Sunday at another complex, the Onagawa power plant, after higher-than-permitted levels of radiation were measured there. But radiation levels at that plant returned to normal later Sunday.
A pump for the cooling
system at yet another nuclear complex, the Tokai Daini plant, also failed after Friday's quake but a second pump operated normally as did the reactor, said the utility, the Japan Atomic Power Co. It did not explain why it did not announce the incident until Sunday.
Edano denied there had been a meltdown in the Fukushima Daiichi complex, but other officials said the situation was not so clear.
Hidehiko Nishiyama, a senior official of the Economy, Trade and Industry
Ministry, indicated the reactor core in Unit 3 had melted partially, telling a news conference, "I don't think the fuel rods themselves have been spared damage," according to the Kyodo News agency.

Almost Broken



hellooo :]

so im watching that movie Cinderella Story, and i have to admit, i like it lol, just like i like mean girls.

So i made a fan page for my blog on facebook, and im liking it alot :] if you want to support join it! the linkis in the side bar --->>

So i need some feedback, what do you think of the videos? stick with it? lose it? Im just wondering!

So JAPAN UPDATE: theres a likely nuclear melt down at the nuclear plant might happen, critical core cooling systems failed at both reactors after the earthquake. - MSNBC

Their evacuating people around the area and are attempting to cool the reactors with water

Here are some random pictures i thought id post too :]







The music playing in the video abouve is La Roux :] their pretty awesome so i advise you go on and check them out <3

Hawaii Tsunami

Here are some pictures from the tsunami that took a turn at Hawaii after it hit Japan
Luckily, there were less casualties here.
These pictures were taken by a blogger from Hawaii, link at the end of the post
If you can donate to Japan, please do, you can go to www.redcross.org/en/ and donate anything, it all helps.
Pray for Japan.
