August 18, 2007: "mean cookies and their abrogation"
last night, my fortune cookie told me to seek professional help.
and it occurred to me that it sounds like i attack fortune cookies on a nightly basis in hopes of securing my future, so i just wanted to clarify: i don't. it's just seems to be regular practice to attack fortune cookies after attacking chinesepeoplefood. at any rate, after my fortune cookie told me "it's over your head now. time to get some professional help," i shot the audacious baked item a dirty look and proceeded to eat it.
and i hope it hurt.
and because i wasn't happy with the cookie, i ate another one, which told me "they will be grateful that you cared enough to make it." (which perhaps refers to my scissors and cardstock!)
that cookie was much better.
so, the moral of the story is: you should keep eating fortune cookies until you find a message to your liking.
my life is chockful of morals like this.

I started collecting fortune cookie messages last year. I don't know why, seeing as I don't even eat that much fake chinese food to result in any sort of sizable collection, but then again, who am I to question why I gravitate toward freakish behaviour at all? In any case, I lost my little collection when I moved out of residence, and I haven't had chinese takeout since, so for now, fortune cookie messages cease to have a hold over my life. Yippee!

That is a really good moral, I will use that! lol.
[Sasha] Sunday, August 19th

[Jhaye] Sunday, August 19th

Haha. Well, not to rain on your fortune cookie parade.. but did you consider an alternate meaning to the second fortune? Like.. "they will be grateful that you cared enough to make it." could mean something like "people in your life might be grateful that you decided to make the decision to get professional help" HAHA. Ok, I'm sorry... I think I read too much into those damn fortune cookies. :(

I only save the fortunes I like, hahaha~ In my wallets zippered coin compartment is where they're tucked away.

lol thanks.. umm.. nice fortune cookie
[Trang] Saturday, August 18th
HAHA. I usually don't read what my fortune says, I rather enjoy the cookie anyway ^.^. I use to buy a whole box of futune cookies and take out all the paper inside.

If you really think about it, that is actually a really good moral.

XD Fortune cookies are just funny. For me, I rarely get actual cookies with fortunes in them. Mines are always giving me some type of advice -- NO! Give me my effing FORTUNE! I don't need advice! Grr. One time I got a cookie that said: "You will eat many more fortune cookies in your life."
And seriously...I just started laughing and the waiters looked at me like I was insane.
So now I usually open fortune cookies in hopes of finding something funny like that again, because there's bound to be more! They don't mass print and bake those things for fun!

I have thought that all fortune cookies have lovely messages inside them. I guess you can figure out that I have never actually eaten any. :P

actually, i didnt get my domain yet, it has to wait 12 hours for it to be active. i'm going to start updating soon! (=

That's kind of a bitchy cookie, though it may not have meant all is wrong in your head. I would have put the fortune down the garbage disposal, anyway--just to be sure. :D My fortunes have been nice lately, but normally they're rather apathetic to my life and general situation.
Aw, thanks for your comment back! ^o^ haha I'm glad you liked my comment. ^^ I dunno what it was...sometimes I do that to sites, if they're small(er) and interesting...I read aboslutely everything, lol, and I hope to read more notes in the future, too. haha I'm glad you thought my site was eye-catching...I personally like the colors but it's so simple and like "oh, another pixel site..." so I'm glad you stopped by! (Oh man, my Dad makes the best mashed potatoes...*O*) Thanks, I hope you're right about my roommates! Last semester my roommate and I didn't talk at all. o_o But she was wierd. Ok, I spammed a lot again, so have fun and bye bye! ^_^

Haha, I'm glad you found a message you liked. I wanted to get fortune cookies once but when we went to the shop to get them, they didn't have them yet. Doh.
[Alex] Saturday, August 18th
Haha, I think the fortune cookie company that the Chinese restaurants distribute here, always say nice things, so they always taste good.
Yes, it's a new layout. :)
[Andre] Saturday, August 18th
hahaha connie, i do the exact same thing. you keep eating those cookies until you get something you like :)!
[Nayana] Saturday, August 18th
Lol haha, I don't like the taste of fortune cookies so I don't eat them. But I am glad you came to that realization =P
[Mandie] Saturday, August 18th
Haha Connie you're such a joy to read, absolutely great. Fortune cookies.. Kind of like horoscopes. I'm addicted to knowing what they say, but sometimes when I find out I would have prefered not knowing.
Good read. :)
I'm going to add you as a daily, mmkay.
