Subtle HILARITY

"I always tell the truth.. even when i lie, i'm honest" hilarious.

i met a hilarious dude in baton rouge. you know those type of people that are just simply funny but you can NEVER repeat the funniness. they are just funny. they just make you laugh. they don't say jokes [well they might] but its just a natural easy simple funniness. the way they hold eyes contact or word sentences. I don't know how to explain it but I'm impressed

The Infamous in the BR

i went to baton rouge this weekend so that i could experience my first LSU game... WELLLLL i ended up not going to the game and just watching it at walkons which was still just as fun, but the fact that LSU blew 21-0 lead really brought down the energy level. i met a whole bunch of great new people. its really funny because i rarely hang out with other latinos.  i was happy and i had fun. i was looking forward to going back today [friday] to watch the chee weez but those plans didnt work out so now i'm chilling.

NOPD is grrrr

So my friend Cool was stuck at the Royal Sonesta on Bourbon yesterday when they issued the mandatory evacuation. So i picked him up. brought him to power blvd. then TO BATON ROUGE. i had to lie to get my way into new orelans and to get back in... i was soo pissed off. i'm trying to get on the cresent city connection and the cop is like where are you headed.


Jillien:"Um to New Orleans"
cop:"well nobodys allowed in. theres a mandatory evactuation"
Jillien:"i understand that. thats why i'm going in my brother is working on Bourbon Street and he doesnt have a car to evacuate. i'm picking him up so that he can leave.
cop:"[now redirecting her]no mam cant let you in everyone is evacuating
Jillien [now screaming at the top of her lungs and in the middle of the road]"THATS WHY IM GOING IN TO EVACUATE!!! YOU ARE NOT LISTENING TO ME.

[jillien turns around and goes back on the overhead expressway... she sweet talks a different officer and that wonderful gentleman lets her in to save her older brother!]

Its not perfect.

Algunas veces me olvido que puedo escribir, leer, y hablar en español. Es difícil viviendo en los Estados Unidos porque aquí solo se habla ingles.  cuando voy a l’escuela o mi trabajo solo hablo Ingles. Y todos mis amigos hablan Ingles; no tengo chance de practicar mucho. Pero no quiero olvidar como hablar o escribir. Quisiera saber como comunicar perfectamente. Poder enseñar a mis hijos, en el futuro, como escribir, leer, y hablar. Talvez cuando creso voy a poder ir a Honduras o Guatemala mas, y quedar me ahí por un tiempo satisfactorio.

i need a job

so i'm chilling at home and i receive a call from napoleon... remember him>? he's the attorney i used to work for on st. Charles. well turns out that the legal assistant he got to replace me after i left is lost and cannot be found due to the hurricane. he thinks she's in a shelter. well he needs me to work for him. i guess until i go back to school in january. its going to be funny trying to find criminals in all this mess. 'the smart ones will have changed their names and fled the damn state, gotten jobs offshore and gotten a new ssn.' according to nap. but i'm sure they arent all that smart. anyway the problem is i KNOW i;ll be doing all the work and that sucks because i dont really like the type of law he practices. but o well. a paycheck is a paycheck.

come to think of it i havent received my money from the tanning salon. i think i'll do that first thing in the morning.

"C'mon guys; they smell like fish, but they taste like chicken." **Ritchie Valence Story

"i wanna go home."
"why?"
"because i want to"
"i really value the power of your argument" **forgot the name of the movie

anyway these things have kept me giggling so i thought i would share it.

Im a Displaced New Orleanian from Jefferson Parish

I'm sitting at a computer in West Baton Rouge Parish library. i dont have much to say except that everything sucks. i have lost an entire semester at school. the people at LSU advised me to sit out a semester. my mom is employed with the same company but in florida so we leave on sunday to go over and around louisiana to florida, and i have no more computer or cable... which means no more mrs. foster's !!!!!!NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...

this also means that i cannot keep in touch with anyone. 504 area codes arent working, and since i have no computer i cannot come on the internet and communicate.

let me know how yall are doing. you know my number or just post and tell me you are okay. i love you all. and i hope to post soon. bi
