The ToTo: cowritten by Dr. Andony Dookhi, PHD ToTo-ology and the Original ToTo (born Fayer Bo3riki)
Observe the elusive ToTo in its natural habitat.
Unbeknownst to many, the ToTo has no cheeks, but possesses cheek pouches, much like a small chipmunk. This is what enables the ToTo to consume great amounts of food without exploding. However, at times, a ToTo will emit strange sounds.
Though initially born human, ToTos are devolved into a subspecies. They are asexual beings that, while may show outward sex-traits, will interchange and mate with both sexes of their kind (and others i.e. humans). They must continually mate, otherwise their punis will shrivel up and turn black.
A healthy punis.
A shriveled punis.
ToTos are originally classified as scavengers, but they are known to eat fresh food. They'll eat anything.
You know what, they are of no use to the human race. They only serve as entertainers and loose sexual partners.
The ToTo's life is based around mating and eating. So great and equal are these needs that, to a ToTo, food and mating are interchangeable. Watch as a ToTo tries to copulate with its sandwich.
Though they are a subspecies, they are remarkably intelligent when dealing with mating habits and nice Catholic boys will like ToTos whether they have ears or not.
Many humans will adopt domesticated ToTos as pets.
The ToTo does not have a regular hibernation schedule, but does so in between snacks and whenever necessary. When a ToTo is hibernating, it gives a false appearance of cuteness, but may become very aggressive if awakened. However, they are usually docile, friendly creatures.
In conclusion, be nice to ToTos. They are small and helpless and make nice pets so long as they are fed and sexually satisfied.
Save a ToTo. Go on a diet.
Save a ToTo. Screw abstinence.

random thoughts from a toto's mind.
the beauty of IB Theatre Arts... where else do i get graded to dirty dance to britney spears? (don't ask)
Gigli. ok, so i hated this movie, but i just had to, had to, share this.
Read more..
in more toto related news, you may have noticed my absense. this is due to the fact that a month into school, i have turned into a lifeless slaving studying-machine. i don't go home til 4. saturdays and tuesdays for forensics, the rest of the week for math. see, they're getting us IB students to tutor the pre-cal classes before their big test on matrices, and well... you don't need to know anymore.
but i do miss you all. i promise you i'll try to make a come back tonight, if i get done all my homework early enough. vanden boom, verstraete, get online! i miss all both of you!
oh and whatever happened to that online party you were throwing for me, vanden boom? you trying to cheat me out of a party? *narrows eyes suspiciously*
so i'm watching this discovery channel thing on formula 1 "indie" cars. it's a follow up on last week's. did you know that an indie car can go from naught to 160km (100miles) per hour in just 3 seconds? a lot of people say it's the car that makes the winner, but let's be objective about this. so ferrari, now the leading champions for 6 years in a row (going on 7), did not win a single tournament, not even for third, from 1979 up to 1998 (i believe). in 1995 they hire micheal shcumacher, the greatest driver in the world. for the first 2 or 3 years, he's warming up, and then he goes on a winning streak.
jack vilnov, the canadian driver, did not win a total of 10 races in 3 years. they boot him and get button, the brit guy, to drive the exact same car, and he suddenly starts winning.
cars make the winners? i think not.
indie cars have wings on their sides. true, honest-to-God airplane wings. the only difference is they're turned upside down. if they weren't, the cars would fly. the wings are used for the opposite effect. while airplane wings require lift, indie cars use their wings for "down force". it helps the driver control the car better. the down force is so great at top speeds, that by the time the driver reaches 190km per hour, he can drive the car on the walls and ceiling of a tunnel. it's even greater than the force of gravity.
you think anyone can drive that kinda power?
cars make the winner?
please.
don't insult heroes.
oh and, andy, woohu-man. happy birthday!
p.s. the good news is, i don't have to go get that pesky surgery on my eyelid, so yay!

when you're ripe
henrich ibsen is my new hero.
read hedda gabler.
books have got to be the greatest thing to ever happen to the world.
when i was a kid i started reading everything i could get my hands on. by second grade i was done with beverly cleary and betsy byars. so i wanted bigger better books. by fourth grade i'd read 7 shakespeares, ivanhoe, 12 mercedes lackey books, moby dick, jane eyre, little women, pride and prejudice... creepy little kid, huh?
picture little faygo, sitting on a minature rocking chair, feet won't reach the floor, reading a book bigger than my head.
it happened every day for years.
my brother thought i was sick. he yelled at me, then went whining to my mom that i wasn't right in the head. "what kinda kid sits in her room and reads for fun? why won't she go to her friends' houses? why won't she watch TV?"
the more he wanted me to be like him, the more i wanted to read. i've always been stubborn.
the truth is...
i wanted to be smarter than my brother. i thought if i was smarter than him, i might have a chance, might be a worthy competitor for the love, affection and attention of our parents. my father noticed, and he taught me other things, things i didn't learn from reading my books. somehow, my brother was still ahead. so i read even more.
it didn't work. oh well.
eventually, i figured out that i wasn't gonna get what i was after by reading. so i started figuring, i have to start looking for answers. and when i figured that, i figured, i need some questions. and so it began.
questions. my whole life revolves around questions. in everything i do, everything i say, i always have questions. and the more questions i came up with, the easier it got for me to find my answers in the world of literary giants. and i won't stop asking my questions. answers mean nothing if you didn't ask the question.
i found a lot of answers. not just in literature like the kind i stuck to as a kid, but elsewhere. i can listen to other people, and i can learn what i want to learn from them. most of the time i seem kinda spaced out, but i still listen.
i love it when other people, people around me, also have questions. if i have the answers they're looking for, i can share them. if i share the questions, then we can look for answers together. i'm not very good alone, it seems. i never really thought about that.
books.
i love books because
the truth is
books give me questions. they make me want to look for answers. books won't make me smart, books won't make me loved, books won't make me special. they'll just make me want to learn. then they'll help me learn, because even when we're looking for answers, books won't give them to us, they'll just sort of, tell us where to find them.
books. they're the greatest thing to ever happen to this world.

the most beautiful morning in the world
Today is the first day of the rest of your life.
and you wasted the beautiful morning sleeping.
then you wasted noontime walking around in your pajamas, cursing at your family.
by midday, you've achieved nothing. you haven't even stepped outside to enjoy the breeze. what a waste. what a waste.
have you ever noticed how beautiful people look in sunlight? sunlight is the most natural and astounding form of beautification known to humankind. in the sunlight, hair seems to be alive, like an independent entity, its own form of beauty. the way you squint a little in the sun, and shade your eyes with your hands. it's staggeringly beautiful. the colour of your eyes gets lighter, and they look like water in the sun.
this morning, i woke up, stood on my balcony and watched the boys from upstairs swim in the pool downstairs. russians, 3 brothers. 19, 17, 12. the oldest one just sort of sat around and read, every once in a while he'd look up and check on his brothers. he was acting like a parent. it was the most charming thing i'd seen in a long time.
a relationship is something between equals. when you're a 14, 15 year old housekeeper, you kinda look for responsibility in your relationships. it's what suckers me, someone who can carry their own weight. i admire a man who can be home alone all weekend and not trash the place, get arrested and lose his virginity in 15 minutes. it's kinda rare. sucks.
but back to beautiful mornings.
mornings like this i kinda wish we had green grassy hills to lie down on, and flowers over your head with clouds that look like famous people. then i wish there's someone there who'll point them out and laugh at you when all you see in them is matt bellamy. laugh at me.
i wish the whole world could be awake every morning and do that. the whole world should wake up on beautiful mornings, find someone nice and lie down on grassy hills with flowers over their heads and look at the clouds that look like famous people. or if you're in kuwait, go out to one of those nice lonely areas, where it's windy and lie on top of the car and watch the clouds go by. everyone should.
the most phenomenal things in the world happen in the morning. sunrise. birds. flowers bloom. that perfect light that makes everyone beautiful. the clouds. and everyone's asleep. what a waste. what a waste.
what a waste.

you don't have to be a female to be a feminist
tears for fears - woman in chains
you better love loving
and you better behave
woman in chains
calls her man the Great White Hope
says she's fine, she'll always cope
it's a world gone crazy
keeps woman in chains
trades her soul as skin and bone
sells the only thing she owns
woman in chains
men of stone
well, i feel deep in your heart
there are wounds time can't heal
and i feel somebody
somewhere
is trying to breathe
well, you know what i mean
it's a world gone crazy
keeps woman in chains
it's under my skin
but out of my hands
i'll tear it apart
but i won't understand
i will not accept the greatness of man
it's a world gone crazy
keeps woman in chains
so free her

my english teacher. she interviewed with oprah winfrey. she published at least 24 children's books. she is awesome.
moving on...
things that happened this week. i made a calculator from scratch on msdos. i took a math test. my chorus class destroyed the song that was "i will" (beatles). ms. williams said "praise you!" three times to me because i'm reading king lear for the hundredth time. i'm ahead of the class in java and CAD programming. i also found out, i'm the only girl in the whole class, and one of only 3 girls taking the course in total. i hung out a lot at the office and with mr. ray. (i've come to the conclusion that both ray and harring are CIA. why else would they have been in our school since it opened?) i learned the chauffer and hands. that's pretty much it. not a very interesting week.
on a brigter note, the wedding wasa huge success! laughter and nice things like that. you know. dancing dancing dancing, eating eating eating. then again, there were quite a few horrors. some dressed in giant orange christmas trees, others, fake blondes with gigantic breasts and a practically-tube-that-i-have-to-hold-on-to-or-i'll-flash-the-room-top
that beat themselves when they danced. mfunis was everywhere. but we had fun. we danced. arabian style. yay.
oh and i've got a surprise for you later on tonight. keep an eye out for funny things from sears.

as reported by alexandra zavis in the AP:
In Monday's video, al-Zarqawi announced that Tawhid and Jihad was taking revenge for female Iraqi prisoners and called Bush "a dog."
The U.S. military says women are not held at either facility but has acknowledged it is holding two female "security prisoners" elsewhere. They are Dr. Rihab Rashid Taha, a scientist who became known as "Dr. Germ" for helping Iraq make weapons out of anthrax, and Huda Salih Mahdi Ammash, a biotech researcher known as "Mrs. Anthrax."
dr. germ and mrs. anthrax?
tell me we're talking about a real-life war and not marvel comics.

my terribly snobby high-standard list of things i want in a perfect mate
i need a toto.
someone who's willing toeat with me when i'm hungry, who is secure enough to let me pay for my half of the bill but who's nice enough to offer anyway. someone who can taste and try new things, not just in food, but in life, and who doesn't need to look perfect for me. meaning, whipped cream on the chin is cute, and a mouthful of food is irresistible. i need a human-being, not a model. and screw diets, eat when you're hungry!
i need a hoo-hahsexual.
comfortable with physical intimacy, understands the difference between love and heat, can diffrentiate between passion and errotica. it's ok to show me how you feel sometimes, without saying anything, because it's different when it's with feelings. it's ok to experiment, and try new things, but it's also ok to have boudaries and respect the limits and sanctities of the human body.
i need an activist.
so maybe you don't march on the abortion clinic every weekend, but still, everybody's got to believe in something and follow it through, all the way. it works if i don't agree with it, because disagreements make life interesting. i can't stand someone who's totally indifferent, there's got to be some drive in his life. i don't care what it is, but care about something to the point of healthy obsession, and make that your passion, your motivation, all that jazz.
i need a genius.
maybe not a literal genius, but someone who knows what he knows and is willing to learn. i'm full of useless information, and he should be too, because it's so much fun sharing those tidbits. i can't stand it when someone goes "what's your favourite subject in school?" and this person goes "nothing, i hate school." you've got to love something you learned in school. physics, chemistry, biology, history, mathematics, anything.
i need art.
how many girls do you know aren't suckers for an artist? a painter, a sketcher, a sculptor, a musician, a dancer, a singer, a writer. smart is fun, but artists see the other side of it, they see the beauty of simplicity as opposed to the thrill of the complex. someone who can appreciate the miracle in a cool breeze doesn't need to be able to explain it scientifically, he just needs to feel it. artists can feel things in a sort of strange way that science can't explain. it's the mystery that makes them so wonderful.
i need a flaw.
so i've described mr. perfect. well who wants perfect? perfect is boring, and everyone interesting's gotta have a character flaw. maybe he's shy, maybe he makes funny smacking noises when he eats, maybe he bites his nails. it's adorable. he's gotta fall down somewhere, some place along the line there's got to be a crack in the sidewalk. he can't be irksomely perfect all the time.
i need to laugh.
a sense of humor is a MUST HAVE. even if he's not funny, he's gotta laugh when someone/something else is. laughter makes life easier. i'm sure some famous dead person said that. it's great to be able to laugh with someone, it automatically makes you comfortable with them. friends, family, whatever. if you don't laugh together, chances are you're not at ease with one another. then again, it's a fine line between the genuinely funny and the obnoxious/retarted funny. i'm not 6 anymore, contarary to popular belief.
i need to eat.
hoo-hah is hoo-hah and a girl's gotta eat. he needs to be yummy.
i need to breathe.
i cannot live with a neatness freak. i just can't. i need to live in a land where people can spill and throw and forget to put things away. i need to live in a place where there is no anti-bacterial for everything. i have to settle down in a place where it's ok to be messy and a slob. where it's ok to eat food off the floor and occasionally wipe your nose on your sleeve and once in a while wear the same socks for 4 or 5 days in a row. i can't stand germaphobes, and i have to have stains on my furniture.
misch.
