summer jobs

now that im 18 it was so much easier to get a summer job. literally just interviewed and was given the position the next week. granted, this job pays only 7.50 an hour and one of the other employees was my arch-nemesis from high school, but one of my best friends is working there too and also, its a counselor job and i loveee kids so it should be fun, as long as i steer clear of my nemesis and his lackeys. idk if he has those, really, but honestly it makes him sound much more sinister if he does.

on a ridiculous note, i have been deprived of one of my favorite activities for almost 2 months and it's starting to be an issue. im not even gonna say what it is cause the 2 people who read my blog will know exactly what im talking about cause i complain about it constantly. also im really sick of the song E.T. its just a huge wtf katy/kanye moment for me now.

also, i realized i havent had pie in a long time. oh never mind i think i had some last week. note to self: buy some apple pie in the near future. and eat it.

somehow i got an A in physics

SOOO somehow i got an A in physics and creative writing even though my creative writing professor that i wouldnt be getting an A, and so like wtf i will be getting a 4.0 if i didnt bomb my bio exam?? HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE

im actually proud of myself, or at least i will be after the shock wears off. cause last semester i did pretty shitty. jk i got a 3.3 but thats still pretty bad considering i am in the honors program. watevskies ill take it :)

18

im eighteen now, and nothing feels any different than when i was 17. and i havent done any 18-year old things yet. no lottery tickets, no porn, and no getting tried in court as an adult. thankfully.

through jack and allyson, i have discovered the show psych. we tried to watch it on netflix months ago but no one was paying attention. just like when we watched social network and that other movie about college where the girl died in the bathtub and the other one got raped and then it snowed or something.

that movie was bad. but like actually. anyways im sick of blogging and only keep it up out of this weird sense of obligation i have to the internet. really odd, i know.

italiaa

omg italy was so great. if you wanna see the pictures, theyre on facebook. i got to see all of the important monuments in rome, like the spanish steps, the trevi fountain, the cat sanctuary, the vatican (st peters basilica AND the sistine chapel) and the pantheon, the colosseum... and i went shopping A LOT. i also saw the roman forum. my favorite part, though, was on the last day when we took a one euro train 20 minutes out of rome to Ostia Antica. It's an ancient city that used to be a seaport but due to earthquakes is a bit inland now. it was amazing. most of it isnt restored, so its basically just a city of ruins that you can explore and climb on. the coolest thing was the awesome black and white floor mosaics of amazing scenes and the amphitheater. so much funnn

spring break

just finished cleaning my dorm room. sort of. im ready to go home. sort of. and i have packed for italy. sort of. well i am not really ready to go to italy. i mean technically i am, i have my passport and money and clothes and stuff but i dont know if im mentally ready to have that much fun. im gonna get picked up from school soon and i am tired and i skipped my multi lecture so i could clean.

the reason im going to italy is to visit my cousin, whos studying abroad there this semester. im visiting with her immediate family (her sister and her parents) who are, by no coincidence, my cousin aunt and uncle. im not very interesting why are you reading this.

im gonna miss my boyfriend a lot cause i wont be able to text him cause ill be overseas, but he promised he would email me every day. maybe we can talk on facebook too. ill probably be too busy to talk to him much, which is okay cause i will see him as soon as i get back to school.

ps my birthday is in about 3 weeks yayay 18

oscars

ok so natalie portman is beautiful and she looked awesome and pregnant at the oscars.

also scarlett johannson. can we just talk about scarlett. i want to be her. this is my last post of february anddddd i dont really care about blogs anymore.

my grades are shit.

day 6

day six without facebook. and now i have the potential to get a lot more work done. but for some reason that hasn't been happening. hm. let's think about why that may be occurring.

facebook-less

day two without a facebook. my compulsions to click my facebook bookmark (which i deleted) are becoming less and less. I sometimes travel to the facebook homepage and stare at it lovingly for a couple seconds until i quickly click my stumbleupon bookmark to distract myself from my withdrawal. I've been listening to a lot more music now. and I've been actually doing my homework, and studying. which I should have been doing before, but I was much too busy with my facebook. maybe this is a good thing.

valentines day

i hate valentines day. i dont even know why. maybe its because ive never actually had a date or someone to just hold or cuddle with on valentines day, not in the 18 years ive been alive. which sort of sucks. anyways i think valentines day is dumb because its a commercial holiday that only exists so that companies can make money...

actually no all i wanted this year was someone to hold and maybe a couple of roses. and love. i wanted a lot of that.

i guess some things will never happen to me

for we are a mixture of fact and legend

This control it stopped for friendship,

and your own offensive exchanges were long past gone.

All of us divided in this meandering victory.

Your exile and their word is the concept of my revolution.

Small worlds, you will be moving toward the sea

more now than in the past two hundred years.

And now as you're engulfed by unquenched fire,

this wild threat occurred for kings of times.

And underwater had its dark side too,

They did not take the oath too seriously.

For we, we are a mixture of fact and legend.

When we returned to our fallow farms

our veterans were sent out to the east.

The owners of the land are laborers,

And we are left out in the slums.

You are dead and but you are still my law.

This institution is a part of life.

Will you set me free? Can I go home?

I use your sword as well as your saw.

What was exchanged for these cold words of mine?

Just wine or cordial greetings must be poured.

The masses will accept these words of yours.

And differences will deftly be ignored.

love chihuahuas

just saw the cutest guy carrying the tiniest puppy inside his jacket I'm in love

tumblr

i used to think that tumblr was something completely useless but now i realize its actually pretty cool and is hardly useless at all

i mean its a silly way of blogging for most people. the poeple im referring to are people who do not write their own html and use tumblr's preset layouts. I mean, i'm one of those people but i actually have a 'real' blog too (this one – if you can consider this a real blog) and i use tumblr just cause it looks pretty. if i had the time (lets get real, i mean the patience) to code my own html and have it look good, i would totally do it. but look at me. im way too lazy for that.

so anyways have a look at my tumblr rightttt here

i just spent the last 20 minutes editing it and its still pretty shitty yay mediocrity

Happy New Year

ok so its the new year yay 2011!!

im tired so this is all im gonna say

im boring

stop reading my blog, jeez
