THUMBS UP.

i’m so confused and amazed as to how i managed to survive today, everything that could’ve possibly went wrong, went wrong. 

but hey, i’m happy now (albeit super fucking tired) and my future is looking brighter than ever.

Cranberry bog, via beckettblog

i live down the street from a cranberry bog. they don’t actually harvest the berries, though, which is disappointing, so it just looks like a regular ole lake.

WOW

so two things that dominated my life last week:

1. Quest Crew.

2. Watchmen.

Moulin Rouge Drinking Game!

(via 2birds1blog)

Rules
Drink When:
- People talk about Bohemian ideals
- You see a windmill
- Someone says “penniless sitar player”
- Ewan McGregor says “love,” and yes this does include songs (HAHA, your liver hates you!)
- The Argentinian narcoleptic falls asleep
- Satine is seen smoking a cigarette
- Satine lies to The Duke
- The Duke hits on Satine
- Satine dies because she wanted to see how long she could go without having to get her tonsils removed

OK. 

1. fuck the snow.

2. i saw “rave alert” and immediately got excited. i literally have nothing to do for the next 24 hours of my life. now would be the ideal time to drop acid, if i were to ever do so.

3. “closong”? really? really? really? you were so pumped about sending this campus-wide message that you couldn’t double-check to make sure you were spelling everything correct? really? fas;gkna;finwdlamn;gfbsfdklgnaefsdaaaaa…

i like snow days, really i do. but…i have no work to catch up on, no fun activities to do, no super fun places to go, and on top of that i despise the snow and i was going to have an exam tomorrow but it will be pushed back to friday, and i’m not going to be there on friday so fuck my life.

my roommates and i are all sitting around, telling each other knock-knock jokes, i’m totally serious.

so orthodox lent starts tomorrow...

…and i don’t know what to do. according to greekfood.com…

Greek Orthodox Lent is a time of fasting, which means abstaining from foods that contain animals with red blood (meats, poultry, game) and products from animals with red blood (milk, cheese, eggs, etc.), and fish and seafood with backbones. Olive oil and wine are also restricted. The number of meals on each day is also limited.

…yeah, this fast is virtually impossible to do here at school. i usually give up just meat and then on Holy Week i go vegan. Which is fine with me because I really like beans and pasta. yum. 

i think while i’m here, i’ll focus on eating better, and perhaps cutting back on the crap i eat. It’ll be a more self- reflective time to better myself as a person, instead of focusing on only the food.

which is what lent is about anyway.

Who would you want to narrate your life?

janieblue84:

adeandabet:

notthatkindagay:

joemuto:

branduponthebrain: Ira Glass or Werner Herzog; Whoopi Goldberg, Alec Baldwin, and Morgan Freeman would be second tier candidates.

chimp-shitbitch-kittenscrazy:  Hugh Laurie…in french

jackieheartsb:  Jonathan Rhys-Meyers or Sean Connery.

Me: Ron Howard, obviously.

Eddie Izzard.

Donald Sutherland.

Neil Gaiman…best voice ever!

Zooey Deschanel. Or Bob Dole..Close call though

christopher walken

haha i think christopher walken is an awesome choice. i honestly don’t get why anyone would want zooey to narrate their life. i find that her acting sucks because of her monotone voice. haha your life would sound like a bore if she was narrating it. just say, that’s all.

i think i’d want kevin spacey or his character from american beauty to narrate mine or robert deniro, i love those commercial for american express “my life, my card”

Oh man. Robert Downey Jr. or Ira Glass. 

but on another note..

i saw baby versions of both art garfunkel and gwen stefani in the student center today. 

i'm not a fan of advisors

i hate how you get to college and everyone’s like, “oh, your advisor will help you with EVERYTHING! It’s ok to be a freshman and not know what’s going on because your advisor will help you and make it all good!" 

and so i’m looking from some help from my advisor and they have no clue what the fuck is going on either. and on top of that, when i go to them looking for help, they kind of laugh at me. 

oh. i’m sorry i’m so stupid. i’m sorry i’m in the wrong office looking for something. Oh..no…no you don’t have to point me in the direction of where i should be looking, it’s cool. i’m sorry you wasted .04 seconds of your day talking to me. yep. and feel free to laugh at me as i leave because nothing makes me feel better than degradation. nothing. not even a box of kittens.

i miss my high school guidance counselor. he was the bomb.

i feel nostalgic when i hear this song. A longing for a part of my life that i don’t think even exists.

the music of

She & Him reminds me of how a haunted house would sound like..if it were haunted by friendly ghosts.

monday, february 23

  • I decided today that i will be taking night showers from now on. Something i probably should’ve been doing since the beginning of my life.
  • I noticed that my writing teacher wears a turtleneck every single day, tucked into his high waisted-and-belted pants. Today, the color combo was yellow and black.
  • People who wear Uggs need to pick up their feet when they walk. seriously.

keg talk

Me: Dillion! HEYYYY!

Dillion: MELANIE! so, how does joe like his new school?

Me: what? umm..uh…well to be honest, we haven’t talked much. but i think he likes it there. i heard he’s playing lacrosse and football.

Dillion: Wait….lacrosse AND football? why?

Me: well, i don’t really know. i’m just guessing. i know he’s definitely playing football.

Dillion: Why would he be playing lacrosse?

Me: i don’t really know, that was just kind of a guess.

Dillion: that’s not what I heard.

Me: well, again, i haven’t really talked to him in a while, but his birthday’s next weekend so i’ll give him a call.

Dillion: I thought you two were the real deal.

Me: *nervous laugh*

hey there, mr. blue sky

Dear Beautiful Day,

Why are you so cold? I mean…you’re so goddamn beautiful. i just want to take you home and introduce you to my mom. we could have a family dinner, and then do some wii bowling or something.  Or if you’re not into that, if you think it’s too soon, we could go out for a sundae or something. Maybe some mini golf. I mean, mini golf does sound like fun. But geez, it is too cold outside for that. Looks perfect, but as soon as I get out there and feel your cold bitchy wrath on my face, i don’t feel like going mini golfing as much. 

GODDAMMIT BEAUTIFUL DAY. I WANT TO FROLIC IN YOUR SUNSHINEY MEADOWS. I could probably do some frolicking if i really wanted. I would just have to put on 28 layers before doing so. 

is this how it is going to be, if we are going to be together? with 28 layers of clothing between us? listen babe, i respect you if that is your decision. i will wait for you as long as it takes. i love you.
