Whats the matter with kids today?

SO. i have a final tomorrow in abnormal psych at 1 pm. I want to study more, but my brain feels cloudy and full. AND i turned to Turner Classic Movies and Bye Bye Birdie is on, with Dick Van Dyke. I love him, i love this show, and i love this movie version. It's like, super young mary poppins age dick van dyke. and the special effects are super terrible. The songs from this show are incredible, and it is just making me so, so happy. Like, if i lived back in the 50s/60s, i would have a crush on dick van dyke.

i had a bunch of shit i was planning on writing about. And now watching this movie has just made me forget everything...

i'll add it later

Koala Farts

Can someone buy this for me, please??? Remember a previous post? it's too good.

Shots Fired

Shots were just fired outside of brendans apartment. Like "holy shit he's gonna shoot!" then bam bam now cops are everywhere shots fired. I feel like you KNOW richmond isn't the safest place on earth and that you need to be very wary of things, but that you don't realize it until something like this happens. We all get the occasional reminder that there are no "safe" places in richmond, only "safer."


But seriously, why do i go to school here? Most schools don't have to worry about getting mugged/shot at/killed on your way home from the library...

Contrariwise

i'm obsessed with this website. I cruised it for like an hour last night. I really like the idea of being super cool and nerdy and having some awesome verse tattooed on me and when asked where it's from/what it means i can say "oh, it's from my favorite book/novel/literary classic [insert name here] and i got it because [insert profound meaning here]"


i don't know why i'm looking at tatoos? Because as of right now i have about $70, which is not enough considering i still have like 2.5 weeks of school left and grocery shopping to do. and i'm almost out of swipes.



i just played Animal Crossing for like 2 hours. But seriously, what the hell am i doing with my life?

SQUIRRELS IN MY PANTS!!

Where you live where you are be a star

Life Size is on. With tyra banks. That's really all i have to say. it's refreshing to remember that lindsay lohan CAN actually act....

So yesterday was relay for life. It was good. It was LONG and hot and sunny and like, no one came out really so we didn't raise much money there. Apparently last year was a lot better, it seemed really disorganized and like no one knew what was going on. And we were supposed to make panamanian snow cones (which are really good) but they bought this thing where you have to shave the ice by hand? and it was just the ultimate disaster on so many levels. The time i wasn't walking was spent laughing at people trying to shave ice and playing soccer out on the field trying to not be affiliated. But seriously. it was SO HOT. The sun just soaked all the energy out of me there was a point where i was just laying in the middle of the field getting astro turf all over me trying to pretend it was my bed. But it was good. So far my small team raised $940, although that's not the grand total. And i was i think 2nd top fundraiser on my team. Cool beans.

Got home at 11, took a shower, laid in my bed, and then went to the "epick" party. Although by the time i got there it wasn't that epick, because everyone was super drunk and going home. So i hung out for a bit and had a mini dance party to van halen. It was weird. Then came home and played animal crossing then passed the fuck out because i was tired.

Woke up at 1030. Went back to sleep and woke up again at 3:30. Played animal crossing, watched The Departed on tv (not as good censored) and went to church. Applied for an "intern" job there so we'll see how that goes. i feel good about it.

On friday i hung out with Cory. Went to panera, went to target, went to barnes and noble. I spent over $50 at target. Got a new swim suit and 2 shirts and $1 madagascar white board for our fridge. And then at barnes and noble i was doing really good except they had these journals by the check out. And they were adorable. So i bought a $10 adorable bird journal. Now, i don't know WHY i bought this? Because i already HAVE a journal, and i like never write in it ever. When i do it usually means i'm in distress. And that's a cute journal so maybe i should finish that one first?? But i know i won't because this one is adorable, adorable enough to make me buy it on impulse. I think i'm going to start just carrying it around with me everywhere, so that when i have a thought/idea etc i can just write down. Point is, i'm spending money i don't have. Whatever, i'm done caring about real life.
Then we sat outside on the porch and smoked cigarettes and talked about everything that's going on in our lives. It was really good to catch up i miss her.


i'm watching rock of love bus reunion. And brett michaels is so gross and creepy looking with his tiny bit of facial hair. i have lost any shred of respect i had for him. So gross. And all those girls deserve a slap in the face. Have some self respect.


i really want to see the soloist. It looks really good. And i love robert downey jr.

clap your hands if you got a bank roll

i just got out of the shower and am eating applesauce and listening to lil wayne. I was in the library for a few hours till close tonight (2am) after i went to class. I was a half hour late to my 7pm class. HALF AN HOUR. I missed nothing. But seriously, it's that bad.

i also jumped on about 50 bandwagons yesterday. I got a twitter (yes, i know.) I also got a tumblr. I don't know why. i don't know what i plan on doing with all these things. But i have them. i think i mostly set them up out of curiosity and boredom. I wanted to see what it was all about and the only way i could really do that was to set one up.

If you want to stalk my every move via twitter you can click here.

If you want to stalk my random thoughts and findings even MORE than you do here on blogger, you can view my tumblr here

i feel like a buffalo. Following everyone right off the cliff.

My room is an absolute mess. Like i can't even walk around there's so much stuff on the floor. I need to clean it up because i can't focus when i'm in there because of all the disarray but whenever i get home i just want to lay on the couch and watch will and grace. BOO. I'll just add it on my list of shit to do this weekend.

This weekend is actually shaping up pretty well.

FRIDAY: watch heavy weights with john and julian. i'm way too excited about this. Hanging out with Cory!! I miss her. So that'll be good. i don't want to go OUT out becauseee....

SATURDAY: RELAY FOR LIFE!!! So i'll be spending all day (11-11) hangin out etc on cary street field raising money for cancer research. If you would like to donate to the cause, click here. Every little bit helps!! It's supposed to be really nice (sunny, high of 80) on saturday too. Then, afterwards, EPICK PARTYYY!! Should be fun.

SUNDAY: Chilinz. this is when i'll PROBABLY end up cleanign my room/doing laundry. I'll also probably play a LOT of animal crossing because brendan is leaving his wii here. I need to gather up fruit so i can pay off my house.


i talked to Santa today. I'm working at the office this summer. Again. i feel like a failure. I better get this internship so i can justify working there and have a good excuse to leave early. SRSLY.

100

This is my 100th post. And i wanted to do something "special" or write about something really interesting. But, alas. Not today. I'm all chemistry these next few days, and when i'm in science/math mode its hard to do anything creative.


So yesterday, i did something kind of weird. Borderline creepy, even. I feel as though i should preface by saying that i stayed up ALL night on monday writing this stupid paper that i put off for months, i literally didn't go to sleep. So by the middle of the day i was losing my mind before i finally passed out for a couple hours. Anyway.

So i'm sitting in Interpersonal Relations 323 waiting for class to start. And this girl is sitting at the end of the row in front of me eating a wrap. And for some reason, i was HYPNOTIZED by how she was eating this freaking wrap. She was just shoving it into her mouth, and not even in a disgusting way (because it was a wrap, there's really only one way you can eat a wrap) but it didn't even really look like she was enjoying it
. I don't know why but i just found myself staring at this girl, and suddenly thinking about how disgusting eating is.
i mean, we don't really think about eating that much. We all eat, we all enjoy eating, and we all watch people eat in a way. Like when you sit across from someone at the dinner table, you're watching them eat whether you're paying attention to it or not. In fact, you usually only notice people eating when they're doing something disgusting or weird. But as i'm staring at this girl shoving this wrap into her mouth and i just start thinking about how disgusting eating is. Like its is gross!! Shoving things into our mouth to mash up and put into your body? Foul. Seriously i was being such a creeper watching this girl eat and thinking about what a disgusting thing eating is.

Remember that stats test that was driving me crazy? I GOT A 97!! HELLLLL YEAAAAA!!! Cruz got an A too. SUCCESS!

This is kind of weird. Kind of.

Also, 24 hour library hours start on sunday. It is RIDICULOUS how excited i am. I'm looking forward too much. i think it's a sign...

That's all i have right now. I leave you with a picture of Taye Diggs.

Yummyyyyyy. Idina Menzel is one lucky bitch. (Ps they're going to have the most beautiful caramel i've ever seen. Its ridiculous how excited i am).

ITUNES WHAT ARE YOU DOING??

HI.


okay i KNOW you don't have to use itunes to download music bla bla bla but i got a bunch of giftcards for christmas so i've been using it. And so i go do download this song and its $1.29???? UH WHAT THE FUCK!????

so i click the question thing and it brings up this whole "itunes plus" spiel. Its supposed to be better sound quality and without digital rights management meaning you can burn it however much you want etc but it's 30 cents more!! NO I DON'T WANT THAT!!


I DONT GIVE A FLYING FUCK ABOUT THIS I WANT TO PAY 99CENTS FOR A FUCKING SONG. And the sick thing is, that there are SOME songs that you can only by this "plus" version of. So you don't even have the cheaper, "not as good" option!!


THIS IS NOT OKAY!!!! WHERE DO I SEND IN MY ANGRY LETTER??? I'M NOT EVEN KIDDING!!!! I'M FUCKING MAD!



ugh what the hell......

PB Teen

So, out of sheer boredom/procrastination i was looking at a Pottery Barn Teen catalog. I dunno maybe looking for ideas to add to my room. Whatever.

They have some cool random stuff. But not the point.


The point is, WHO HAS ROOMS LIKE THIS WHEN THEY'RE A TEENAGER??? I mean, the bedrooms are plausible.

Lounge rooms? NO.
Intricate study spaces? No
Dorm rooms? I HAVE YET TO SEE A DORM ROOM LIKE THAT. Maybe they exist, but i've never seen one.



Just... Egads.

Get off of my cloud

Suddenly, i have a lot to do.

i knew this would happen.


i can register for classes on monday, and i have NO idea what i'm taking. Except for another stupid required statistics class. And the advising office had super weird office hours so i didn't go this week, even though they are like no help anyway. UGHHHHHH I HATE REGISTRATION SO MUCH.

And i have my abnormal psych paper due tuesday, which i've been putting off for weeks and weeks and weeks. Its a cool assignment (diagnose a movie character etc) but i have this awful feeling that it's actually going to be really hard and that i'm going to end up hating my life. CRAPPPPPP

Tommorrow is easter. This means going to church and having honey baked ham. And i brought home VARIOUS easter outfits and i am unsatisfied with all of them. And i know i'm going to be up late tonight doing... things which means tomorrow i will be tired and probably crabby.

Today was eventful.

First i got my haircut. It is NOT what i wanted. I was REALLY unhappy at the salon, like i couldn't even fake it. And the thing is, once it's cut it's cut. You can't UNcut your hair. So i came home and washed all of the mousse and crap she put in it and it looked better and i guess i'm content now. It's cute. It looks good. But it's not what i wanted. Oh well. Hair grows and mine grows fast. Stupid mom threw away the ORIGINAL picture of my haircut because "that magazine was old" (false) and i have DESPERATELY been trying to find it with no luck, so i had to kinda peice one together out of multiple pictures and stuff and it just. Yea. I went from being an unhappy camper to a mildly content camper.

Then me and dad went to crystal city for a st. baldricks event that his cousin organized. I think it's his cousin? It's my dad's cousin's son. So yea that makes him a cousin. Anyway we went to this huge sports bar/pub (it had 3 floors!) in crystal city and hung out with family that we like, never see and ate food and watched people get their heads shaved. If you don't know what st. baldricks is i've included a link, but it's a foundation for kids cancer reasearch where people raise money and then shave their head. It was really fun. And the cousins convinced my dad at the last minute to do it!! So they paid 50 bucks and he got his head shaved haha. He doesn't really look that different because he keeps his hair military short anyways but it was still cool. Yay dad!! And Miss Virginia was there, and she was going to shave her head if they reached their goal of 100,000 dollars although i highly doubt they reached it. That's a lot of money. We didn't stay the whole time though but it was still really fun.

Came home. Dicked around, went to CVS. The stupid barrett jackson car auction has been on all day. Ate hamburgers, dyed easter eggs andddd yea. Realized how much shit i have to do and then proceeded to not do any of it.

YAY



i just realized i never told the porch story?? I'll do that later because it is rather long. But seriously, i don't know why this shit happens to me...



OH PS. i'm doing relay for life on saturday!!! And i just signed up like a week ago and have NO fundraising SO IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO DONATE PLEASE CLICK HERE. ALL DONATIONS GO TO THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY!!!

YOU KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS!!!


i have a stats test tomorrow. actually its in 7.5 hours but whatever. Me and cruz studied for several hours in the library, and everytime we THOUGHT we got it, we were wrong. This test is like full of trick questions. Fucking stupid. I reject the null hypothesis that statistics is important to my life due to small p-values.


yea. i'm losing my mind.



i'm going home for easter because my friend can give me a ride tomorrow even though it means skipping chemistry, although somehow i think i'll live. i don't really have anything else to say right now because all i am thinking about is how stupid statistics is and i feel like all i do is bitch about that class. But kate wanted me to post so THIS WILL HAVE TO DO until tomorrow when i'm home, and will PROBABLY have trip home stories.


and if not i'll update anyway because it's been awhile and i'll be looking for something to do. OH and maybe i'll discuss the baltimore trip/family reunion. Not doing this now no no no because then i'll just never go to sleep even though its already 343 am.

SOUL CRUSHING 101

I'm in my 7-940 personality and "personal growth" class right now and i freaking hate it.


i watched 2 episodes of the office, wrote my chem blog, and brought my coloring calendar but i don't think i'm gonna break that out because we may be getting out soon.



But seriously. This class ruins all things that are potentially good about thursdays. And on that note i leave you this wonderful old picture of my middle brother found by kate. Enjoy.


It's 1:12 AM

And i have a 2 page relationship paper due tomorrow at 2pm.

And i haven't started it yet.


And i'm not even freaking out. Which i think is a problem??

I actually accomplished quite a bit today DESPITE taking like a 4 hour nap. That's probably why i'm awake right now and not losing my cool. I think i'm going to write it on gender roles and androgyny.
