So, here's an interesting story of how FSU just screwed me over. Lets all take a time portal back to last summer where Blake broke $180 worth of glasswear in her Organic II lab class. I had the highest bill in the whole class last summer, and in the end all i could do was snicker as my own butterfingers and be proud i had the most money owed. Well, i though i had totally owned the system when the chemistry department simply forgot to charge me. I even did a little dance. Well, the bastards at the chem department have decided to charge me NOW (or actually 3 days before Fall grades came out) for all of that broken glasswear. Its not that big of an inconvienance, alls i have to do is wait til Friday when my next paycheck clears and then pay the bill online. But still! That bill is 5 months late! *sigh* douche bag chemistry department.
Break with parents has been so far pretty good. Well, good is an overstatement..lets go with entertaining. Here's why.
1) First night i'm home my father made an oral sex joke.
*explination : My dog (Maggy) has the stuffed animal puppet beaver thingy, and my dad plays with it and make it talk to her untill Maggy gets all upset and just takes it off my dad's hand. 2 minutes after that happened my father looks down to see Maggy licking her beaver. He says to her "Maggy! Quite Licking That Beaver!" (wait..its gets better). I started to snicker a little and eventually could hold it in and was all out laughing. My Dad then goes "What? What's so funny?". i told him nothing and starting to try to contain myself and drink some more iced tea. Dad then goes, "That's usually what your mother says to me!". I laughed so hard iced tea came out of my nose and i told my parents that conversatoin never happened and we were NEVER to speak of it again. EEEWWWW!!!!!!
2) My mother cursed like a Republican.
*explination : Mom and i wer heading to Best Buy to do some Holiday shopping. My mother, being the all knowing and seeing driver that she is, ended up going the wrong way on a one way street. She soon realized that all of the signs were facing away from her, and the cars were all facing towards her. So she said "OH GOD BLESS AMERICA!! WE GOTTA TURN AROUND!!!". So she did and we were fine. Meanwhile im laughing my ass off and asking her if thats how she normally curses there days!.
3) My father told me i looked "wierd" with straight hair. Yeah, my father will even argue with me about my hair. So i told him i would wear it how i want and its not hurting anyone. He kind of shut up..we'll see if he says anything else about over the next 2.5 weeks.
4) Dad attempted to argue with me about the theory of Intellegent Design vs. Evolution (sparked by the news of only Evolution being taught in schools in PA). But the funny thing is, he really doesn't understand what the Intelligent Design theory is. So i just nodded and smiled at him and kept eating dinner. I hope Dad knows all of his facts before he goes to trail the first time he is a practicing lawyer. More proof i get my intelligence from my Mom.
5) I go to the mall to see a movie and withing 30 minutes i saw like 5 highschool ppl. I feel old.
6) This whole relaxing and not doing much thing is kind of nice. I really needed this break after the past year straight of academics and everything else that i've had. I'm finally reading the other Hitchhiker Guide Books i've wanted to, I'm finishing up my pretty dark green scarf, and i'm getting my bedroom organized so that it's no longer a storage closet for all of my crap.
7) Every year i attempt to make my mother surprise me on Chritsmas and it never works. I even emailed her a very specific list this year to go from. What happens, she takes me out shoppiing with her so i just pick out the stuff i want that was already on my list. So once again, i know 99% of the presents i'm getting for christmas. With the 1% probably being some white socks or shampoo or something little. I can't really blame my Mom, if i was in my 50s i wouldn't know what the hell to get my 20 year old daughter either. So this way mommy and i bond while we're shopping (something we've done since i was practicaly born), and i ensure i get what i want and don't have to exchange half of my presents.
