for your information

Did you know that it's International Women's Day Today? No, I am not gonna yell out "Girl Power" today, that would make me cringe. But it's pretty cool that women are recognized today. We are important, after all...i.e. the human race would DIE without us.

Wow, I am the biggest procrastinator I know. That's like 3 posts in 30 minutes...I NEED to do some homework...

Yep, I know how I'm dying...

Girl Scout Cookies (those little devils have taken all my money), Snickers, Krispy Kreme and Hershey's will be the death of me.




I think I should sue.

feeling purified

Today I feel not so much like dirty rain water/spit...I feel more like slightly dirty river water, an improvement, no?

Maybe it's because I watched an enlightening episode of Full House--complete with hugs. Maybe it's because William made us hot chocolate complimented with chocolate whip cream. Maybe it's because I skipped econ this morning and opted for sleeping in instead.

All of these answers are possible options for why I feel better today. Also, right now I'm listening to music. And I'm writing. I realize that thee two things make me incredibly happy.

I'm 20 and alive and happy and I need to always remember that I am very lucky to be all those things.

Geez, I'm so sappy sometimes when I write. I need to quit that.

in the gutter

Sometimes, oh sometimes, i just want to melt into the ground...I might as well be a big puddle for people to step in, right?

That's what I feel like today, like dirty rejected rain water gathered up on the side of the road, mixed with the spit and the grime.

It's not just because it's monday. It's not for any particular reason. My head just hurts and my eyes are aching (maybe that's from my contacts).

I feel like taking a sledgehammer and breaking up a wall to smithereens (sp?). Or take a doll and rip it's head off...wow, I sound like a serial killer. I swear, if people mess with me today I'll squirt purfume in their eye (so what? I don't own mase).

Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude...I'm just gonna go to sleep and it will be the next day and things will be alright with the world. And then I'll do a little dance, cause then maybe I can smile.

mondays suck a big one

Everytime I write about mondays I realize I sound mad...it's because I hardly have time to write this post today! This is why I'm not going to italian class today; I went to little italy yesterday, does that count as going to italian class?

I just want to sit outside in a lawn chair and listen to John Mayer...the weather is perrrrrrrrrrrrfect (haha, I didn't mean to sound like a cat) and lately I've been having a love affair with John Mayer's music. Maybe someday I can have a love affair with him...hehehehehe. Maybe that was only amusing to me. Alright, I gotta go take an econ quiz, that evil class! Oh, why can't it be tuesday already?

traveling, anyone?

So far I have Michelle for Italy, Jaclyn for England and Lauren for Turkey...what's up little traveling buddies?

Do I have any takers for Spain and France? And how about India and Japan while we're at it? ok, we'll throw Germany in there too.

Now if only I had the funds. Any takers for aiding me in robbing a bank?

more than calling in sick...

I don't wanna go to work tomorrow. My roomate stefie told me I sould call in dead.

This sounds like a mighty good idea to me.

the unliteral highway

The night is consuming me
and the road is so dark and dense now
All that I have are hopes that my highbeams will function well
and that I'll make it to the other side safely
and in victory
to relish in the stars and sleep in the dust of the moon
and know I have met my destiny

do you think I'm sexy?

This message is for Mr. Rod Stewart. If you really were sexy, you wouldn't have to make a song that asks millions of people around the world if you are.

I bring up this point because my mom wants me to see "sexy" Rod live in concert with her. I can't even write that sentence without laughing.

I'm getting my insults out now; if I were to insult this self-proclaimed "sex-god" at the concert, I'm sure the headlines would look like this: 20 YEAR-OLD GIRL STRANGLED BY 50+ YEAR-OLD WOMEN WITH DISCOUNTED FREDRICKS OF HOLLYWOOD BRAS. yeah, or something like that.

Just please, Mr. Stewart, DO NOT ask if I want your body...I may just throw up right there.

wait, I have family?

I talked to my aunt today for the first time in a long time. Like, since graduation...yeah, that's kind of sad. And that's how it is with some of my cousins too. Like my cousin PJ, who is 3 months older than me and at the same crossroads in his life...I probably would be close with him. It's just hard when I don't have any family living a 20-minute car ride away. The closest ones live in Colorado, then Michigan, then....Turkey. So, you can say that there's a distance problem.

My new resolution is to get in touch with family members that I haven't spoken to in years. Hey, we share blood, it's the least I can do.

happiness is...

Here is a small compilation of things that make me happy, for no particular reason, simply because I want to tell you:

• beans, cheese and rice burritos with hot sauce...I love little mexican hole-in-the-walls that may or may not be federally inspected :)
• The color your lips turn after eating a popsicle
• sitting at the edge of a pool with your feet in the water
• driving on a 78-degree day with my sunroof open and a slight breeze dancing in the air
• the smell of gasoline (this makes me sound like a weirdo, I realize
• the ellipsis...and I HATE it when people call it the "dot dot dot thingy." You fools! Ellipsis is a cool word, so use it!
• eating a whole box of chocolate in one sitting
• walking around in airports ( i love the lady on the intercom that speaks in different languages)
• hot chocolate with handmade whip cream
• kisses on the cheek, by anyone
• dancing like there's no tomorrow
• tapping on windows after you've gotten a manicure
• watching movies that scare the hell out of me...god, why do I find joy from this?
• the sound ice cubes make in a glass full of water
• running through a field with really high grass
• getting and recieving hugs
• glasses...and guys that look cute in them
• trying to taste the rain
• peeling off nail polish
• talking with a friend over a cup of coffee
• that moment in the movie theater when the room darkens and the movie is about to begin
• the curve before the big dip in the rollercoaster

Ok, so this list is getting a little long...so I'll stop. And yes, I know I'm a weirdo, it's just the way I am. But I have one more thing to add: Watching Romeo and Juliet (with Leo) and inserting myself into Claire Danes character...oh yes, that definitely makes me happy!
