That fruit-flavored perfume for my preggy mom

“Vai in profumeria e comprami una fragranza alla frutta!”

That’s what my mom asked this morning. In English, that translates as “Go the perfumery and buy me a fruit-flavored fragrance!”. Really? Since when my mom is so addicted to perfumes?

It must be pregnancy to make her so moody.

So I went and bought a fruit-flavored perfume. I picked a 100Ml bottle of Cartier Delices Eau Fruitee For Women, a truly delightful fragrance I’ve tried at a classmate’s party last moth. It’s a normal Eau de Toilette with a fruit fragrance, but the bottle is adorable too:

What baffled me, though, is that mom continued to insist on not telling dad about her ‘preggy cravings’ until she took courage to do it herself. That sounded too strange to my hears— why on Earth mom doesn’t want to tell dad?!? They always talked about family matters of this kind, she neved hid anything from him… so why now?

I had a talk with my brother Sonny about it, but all he could tell me was that mom and dad had a little discussion a few days ago and they won’t talk a lot to each other since then. It looks strange to me that they would have this reaction— it’s not their usual way. I hope dad didn’t tell mom to stop having/adopting babies, because that wouldn’t be like *him* either!

For some reason, I feel stressed. It’s as if all the family pressure was instantly thrown at my bony shoulders and I had to carry it all. I know it’s not their fault, I know I’m just over-sensitive to family issues and arguments, but when I see my mother reacting that way and trying to find relieve in a perfume… well, that leaves me with some thought. Wouldn’t you feel the same way?

I hope it’s not me being a weirdo. I just care too much about my family to overlook these moments of deep tension…

   Taking care of my site  

March 2nd, 2012 @ 11:32 pm | ♥ Comment?

A few weeks passed by with me not posting at all. As usual. I’m sorry, guys, I’m not the best blogger in the world, and honestly I can tell you I *deserve* the blogger rank “D“, as it is shown in my sidebar widget on the bottom. Bah.

I plan on changing layout around May. I can’t make my own, but at least I can change a premade, can I? My site looks pretty boring now, with the same layout over years. Ugh. I want to revamp everything! Ahah! And actually, I may take inspiration from my buffalo bulls tickets for one: make bulls-themed photo frames, avatars and so on. What do you think? Or maybe I could use my butler bulldogs tickets… Well, I have to donating these tickets, so I must find a way to “use” them before they’re gone. xD Yes, that includes my byu cougars tickets, dear Atlas! Get them if you want, but I’m going use them first, ahah! All the tickets come from Ticketamerica.com, if you’re wondering; that site has NCAA event tickets for the following Universities for the Buffalo Bulls, Butler Bulldogs and the BYU Cougars college basketball football and all other events at those colleges. Pretty nice. :3

Now, I don’t want to go to sleep, but I’m afraid I will have to. My siblings need to close the door and they can’t without me in, so… Uhm, well, I hope I can take care of my site again tomorrow. For the moment, I removed the Custom Smilies plugin, and reverted all emoticons to simple HTML, as the plugin can’t view any smilies… Odd. I need to find out why this is happening.

Well– good night!
