greatest hits 2008
Post the first few lines of the first post of each month of 2008.
January: New Year's Resolution: stop using the word "like" in order to dumb down my speech. If Rodney McKay can sound condescendingly intelligent and still have an enormous adoring fanbase, then damn it so can I!
February: Drea just got me a chocolate turnover from Arby's and I think I might die it's so delicious. Oh my god.
March: Finally finished the FAFSA yesterday, and I am concerned b/c my EFC this year is 29 - despite the facts that my father was unemployed all year and my mother self-employed, which for her often boils down to the same thing; and last year our EFC was 0.
April: Sometimes I have to consciously remind myself not to wear the same pair of jeans every day.
May: FOURTEEN DAYS WOOOO
June: WOOOO BARACK
July: I smell like ham salad and that is NOT OKAY.
August: camping camping camping
September: Work was basically The Perfect Storm tonight. B/c school starts tomorrow, every parent in three states rushed in, harried, needing her fucking virginia ham.
October: On the dreaded day of the overdraft charges and the complete-w/-tears-and-snot breakdown about physics, I went to a physics party w/ my fantastic lab group (and by "physics party" I mean we go to one of our places and eat pretzels and compare answers to the homework).
November: Okay seriously, is this what it feels like to be proud of one's country? I could get used to feeling like this.
December: I just had a realization that I always get everyone books for xmas, even if that's not the focal point of the gift. I am so predictable.
So basically the theme of this year was "mo money mo problems" w/ a side of "fuck physics." Here's to 2009!
