i didn't mean for this to turn into lists...
first of all, youtube is probably the best site EVAR.
- how crayons are made
seriously, who DOESN'T remember this clip from sesame street? it's old school as all hell, and i totally remember being utterly fascinated by it when i was a little kid. the orange wax kind of looks like a big vat of Tang. - the "apache" dance from fresh prince
carlton's facial expression is fucking priceless. and i like the heart cutout on will's shirt. but because i was a sad sheltered little child who did not WATCH fresh prince, i was first introduced to this FABULOUS THING at the sig tau formal, where every single boy in attendence know the ENTIRE routine. and it was awesome. - "popular" - by nada surf
And if you see Johnny football hero in the hall
Tell him he played a great game
Tell him you like his article in the newspaper
I'm head of the class - I'm popular... - borat on conan
"i want to make a romance inside of [queen latifah]....i hope! not with force!"
"conan! like to make sex crime? - high five!"
- Losing Weight. apparently, i'm in much better shape than i thought i was, which is making this whole weight loss thing a giant pain in my ass. at the beginning of the year, i got strep, and lost 10 pounds. and when i got my wisdom teeth removed, i lost another ten, which was okay because by that point, i'd already gained the first ten back, so i didn't look like skeletor or anything. so i'm SUPER TONED at the moment, which is pretty damn good and i have a low body fat percentage and a good BMI. yay me.
- GPA. i had initially hoped to raise it to a 3.0 - which, given that i was beginning my last semester, was going to be kind of impossible. so instead i bumped it up to a 2.8. i'd be lying if i wasn't disappointed by that, and disappointed in myself for my performance in...pretty much EVERYTHING my sophomore year (a combination of everything and its mother sucking at ONCE kind of got me down), but i got my shit together for the home stretch. yay me.
- Love Life. enhhh. something is not going as it should. i like the boy immensely, i think he's wonderful. i like going out with him, i like staying in with him, i like bullshitting with him on the phone or on AIM. but i don't have a clue about what he thinks of me. and the more i agonize, the more i think he's not interested; and then he'll do something completely contrary to that line of thinking. so in summation: i'm totally smitten for someone amazing, who is totally worth it in every sense of the word, but i have no idea what he thinks of me. awesome.
- New Car. this one's going on the back-burner for a little while i save money. i'd like to make some kind of enormous down payment, in hopes of cutting down the total cost of whatever i end up buying. i'm still kinda settled on the mazda3, but my new favorite car to lust over is the acura TL because it is sex on goddamn wheels. of course, now i can begin to afford the damn thing because of the new job.
- GROWN.UP.JOB. oh that's right, i totally have one, and no longer have to wait tables unless i want some extra cash. i'm in charge of all the marketing and advertising efforts of this smallish local business, which means that i get to do EXACTLY what i want to do. my daily commute will be all of three miles, and though i won't exactly be ROLLING in money, i'll have a certain amount of gaurenteed income, something i didn't have while waiting tables. i'm going to learn a TON, i'm going to be in charge of a giant database of stuff and i'm going to be buying ad space and i'm SO GODDAMN EXCITED. HOLY CRAP.
