One of the contestants (yes, it's a game, they can win money) is pregnant.......scheduled to deliver a babygirl within a week from now. Hey, it's her choice! She does give some excitement to the show, smoking, being a pain in the butt, irritating the rest of the crew.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I watch this show, cause it is &lt;strong&gt;a show. &lt;/strong&gt;I see people from 19 to 40, playing stupid games, gossiping, and having 'sort of' sex.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And...and it makes me realize how normal I am.....&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17680036-112895395215790620?l=tulipjo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tulipjo.blogspot.com/feeds/112895395215790620/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17680036&amp;postID=112895395215790620' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17680036/posts/default/112895395215790620'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17680036/posts/default/112895395215790620'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tulipjo.blogspot.com/2005/10/big-brother.html' title='Big Brother'/><author><name>tulip jo</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05455263682783229702</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17680036.post-112895350019680321</id><published>2005-10-10T07:04:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2005-10-10T07:11:40.196-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Stop, talk, listen</title><content type='html'>Sometimes I sit and try to listen to what everybody around me is saying,.

I was watching this discussion program on tv yesterday, and again I noticed the speakers were all telling their own truth, without listening to other peoples opinion or vision.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What the use of talking if you can't hear what somebody else has to say?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Better be quiet......and write a blog.....&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17680036-112895350019680321?l=tulipjo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tulipjo.blogspot.com/feeds/112895350019680321/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17680036&amp;postID=112895350019680321' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17680036/posts/default/112895350019680321'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17680036/posts/default/112895350019680321'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tulipjo.blogspot.com/2005/10/stop-talk-listen.html' title='Stop, talk, listen'/><author><name>tulip jo</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05455263682783229702</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17680036.post-112895246648498353</id><published>2005-10-10T06:54:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2005-10-10T06:59:54.776-07:00</updated><title type='text'>About me.....</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1432/1709/1600/tommi%20slaapt%206%201904041.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1432/1709/320/tommi%20slaapt%206%201904041.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well.... just to remind myself who I am....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;39 years old, not even close to 40!!! overweight (as usual), hard working, tired, lovable.
