Friday Night Haiku

HOLY CRAP, this is a legitimate Friday night haiku, because it actually happened on a Friday. Whoa.

Two parties converged
Mumbling through Taylor Swift songs
I hate Four Loko.

Gives you an idea of how I feel today. Glad I can put my feelings into poetry. Love you.

おかげで (That means Thanks in Japanese!)

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! For everything you do. Whether you're reading this and you are my BFF lova or you are just an acquaintance, or you don't even know me at all. I am thankful for you, and I'm sure many others are as well. Although, it's a little late to be talking about Thanks (you know, since we only have one day for that--Thanksgiving), I'm going to continue to show my gratitude throughout the whole year. What a friggin' concept!!!!

Thanksgiving was awesome. I seriously love eating. My friend Alex and I cooked with our two siblings, it was bomb. I'll walk you through our menu. Salad, rolls, cranberries, green bean casserole, sweet potato casserole, mashed potatoes, stuffing, corn casserole, gravy, turkey, caramel apple cheesecake, and pumpkin pie. HOLY CRAP, I think I gained 20 pounds. But it was totally worth it.

lalalalalalalalalalala. You know when you can't get a song out of your head? I have a love/hate relationship with that feeling. It's really weird because it's usually a song I like and it's just like playing really quietly in the back of my head. Currently it's "Memories" by Kid Cudi. Love me some Kid Cudi, but it's literally been in my head for like 72 hours. Oh well.

Friday night haiku of the week:

Avoiding creepers
On the dance floor at Toucans
"I'll make you fly girl."

Hope you enjoyed that one. That basically sums up my night (although it was a Wednesday night).

POSTY POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOST!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So my friend Matt has a great, up and coming blog about his new Fryer and the many things he fries in it. You should really check it out if you already haven't, because this is a BIG concept people. Live it, love it, eat fried foods.

So thanks again for being you, and I'll try to update soon. Loves it.

Good timezzzzz

Hey ya'll. HOLY CRAP, two days in a row of updating. Who am I? This is wiggity wack...nope just regular type. But really this is very out of the ordinary for me. Commitment to this blog is not something that I do on the reg. I'll give it a go.

So, I'm in this organization at my college called Campus Activities Board. We put on free events for students ranging from comedy shows to movies not out on video to acoustic artists. My committee had an acoustic artist tonight. His name was Nick Motil and he was AMAZING. So although this isn't the posty-post, I am going to post to his website, you should TOTALLY check him out and listen to all of his music--it's on iTunes! He's super great and this is his website:

www.nickmotil.com

Seriously check him out he is boss. He was super nice and everybody loved him! Yay awesome music.

SO besides that, can I just say that today was BEAUTIFUL. It was friggin' like 70 degrees...it is November and our windows are open. CRAZY. I love it though, and I can deal with this. Maybe if this year we just don't have a winter? Yeah it can snow on Christmas, but that's it. Thanks in advance mother nature.

I have a stupid video for a class that I need to do like RIGHT now, but instead I am writing this blog. I think the busier I get, the more I want to blog to procrastinate what I actually have to do. That is not legit at all, I'm a slacka. AAAAAAAAAAAnyways, hey ADD.

POSTY POooOoOoOoOOOOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOst!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you to my roommate and friend Kelsey Burns for showing me this gem of a video. LOVES IT and you should too!

This $hit is BANANAS....

No seriously, it's bananas. But really, that song has been stuck in my head ALL DAY LONG. And now it will be stuck in yours. Sorry about that.

Oh hey rambling, how are you today? Here I go. Just prepare yourself because I think this is going to be an extremely ADD post. You should be used to that, but I think this one may be crazy. There's just a lot of things I want to talk about.

Things I like about today:
*CONAN O'BRIEN is BACK! On TBS--RIGHT NOW! (Update SETH ROGEN AND LEA MICHELE AS GUESTS!!!!!! ba;dslkfjwer so much more excited!)
*Most American Chicken Enchiladas I've ever had...but still delicious.
*Singing/Dancing hats at Walmart
*Reminiscing on old timezzz
*Being able to have the windows open in NOVEMBER!
*Finally updating my blog ooi ooi!
*Finally updating my blog IN FULL COMFORT because I'm wearing a snuggie.

Things I don't like about today:
*Our full-size cutout of Taylor Lautner scaring the crap out of me every time I walk into the living room.
*It being dark before 5...not okay.
*That's basically it (The glass if half full, not half empty.)

So yeah, those are things that have happened today. Basically lately I've been playing Bejeweled Blitz, procrastinating doing my homework (mainly thanks to Bejeweled Blitz), watching Modern Family, and hanging out with freeunds. Nothing too extremely exciting.

I know you missed it....THE POSTY POST IS BACK BITCHEZZZZZZ:
http://www.foundmagazine.com/ That is a website that I stumbled upon, and it posts things that people find everyday...it's pretty cool.

Also, I love my friends and just thought that should be known. I wish everyone could be me so they could know how it feels to have the best friends in the world. That is not even over-exaggerating at all. LOVE THEM.

Today I was thinking that I am going to start making my crazy nights into haikus for everyone to enjoy. Here is my first of many:
I missed the bathroom
Put on my basketball shorts
Went out on the town.

This is a great new tradition I think. Let me know what you think. Love you blogger people.

NEW PET! NEW PET! NEW PET!

So, as you may or may not have read in my title.......I NOW HAVE A NEW PET!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHH My life is complete! Okay, so I'll tell you all about him. First of all his name is George Clooney and he is a Pyrrharctia Isabella Caterpillar otherwise known as a "Woolly Bear". He is brown and black, very fuzzy, and extremely cute. One day he will turn into a yellow moth with black specks. That day will be a sad one to let go of my little child-caterpillar. But let's not think about that yet. Here's the story of how we met.

So I was walking home from class, minding my own business. I was walking through the parking lot of my apartment building when I looked down and saw something fuzzy by the curb. I walked past it, but then I decided to go check out the situation. And as it turned out it was GEORGE CLOONEY! So, I broke a stick off of a bush and he climbed right onto it (obviously meaning he loved me too). I got home and was so freaking excited for my new pet!!!!!! So, I made him a comfy home in a spacious 2 BR, 1 Bath tupperware container, with many holes for breathability. I also added some leaves and grass, and of course the comfy stick that he loves. Then Kelsey added a piece of spinach so he would become strong--I think this was a good choice. He's a hungry little guy, and he also poops a lot. Turns out after I did my research to figure out who George really is, I found out what type of caterpillar he is, and many other fun facts about him. His type is born in the fall (he's a BABY! CUTE!) and they hibernate closer to winter then turn into moths in the spring!!!! Also, did you know that if you don't put greens in and there are two caterpillars in a container, then they will turn cannibalistic and EAT EACH OTHER!!! Isn't that crazy?! Right.

So anyways, George Clooney, is my new precious, furry friend and I love him. Here is a picture of not him, but a caterpillar looking quite similar to him (Real pictures of my model caterpillar coming soon):



So besides George Clooney (LOVE), nothing really has been going on. Just school and extracurricular activities, etc. So yeah, hopefully that suits your blogging needs, because that's all I've got. Love ya everybody!

Go out into nature and find a George Clooney for yourself!!!!

It's officially Fall...and still 80 degrees.

Okay, I am just going to jump right back into this foreign concept of "blogging". Every time that I try to make my blog like themed or do something every day or feel like I have to do it, I end up not doing it. SO this is not a food diary/workout journal, I may not do a posty-post (but most likely will), and I don't have any standards to live up to. haha Awesome, low expectations always trump all.

AAAAAAAnyways, like my title said it's officially fall...HAPPY FALL! But, Mother Nature didn't get the memo, and I am still sweating on my way to class due to the sweltering heat. What the eff, I wish it would just be fall weather so I could wear sweaters and tights and scarves and not sweat my butt off (I wish). So, since it is officially fall, I decided to make a few collages of all of the fall fashions that I would like to possess. Most likely, I will not possess any of them, but here's hoping.

First off, we have TOPS:


Essentials for fall--Prep cardigan, military bomber-esque jacket, flowy long sweater, and light v-neck sweater. Yes, please.

Next, skirts and dresses:


These are all pretty self-explanatory. Trends galore.

Next, we have accessories:


Large weekender, infinity scarf (I want this in every color known to man), Owl pin (for cardigans or coats), small over the body purse, New watch (I love my old watch, but I need a dressier one), and the classic gold locket. Love.

Last, but CERTAINLY not least.....SHOES!!!!!!!!!!!!! squeeeee!!!!!


Boots with the heels, cut-out, red oxfords, weird penny loafers that I love, and of course the classic TOMS shoes.

I found all of this stuff on the TOMS shoes website, Forever 21, Charlotte Russe, and Mod Cloth. So if you like what you see go to their websites and shop the crap outta them!

Well, this was a good distraction from homework, but I think I'm going to take a nap. Love ya people.

P.S. You thought I really wouldn't give you a POSTY-POST?! WELL YOU THOUGHT WRONG GURLFRAAAAAAAAAN! Check out this blog, it is HILARIOUS and I freaking love it. Enjoy:
