Take the first post from every month this year, and then take the first sentence of said post.  Arrange them in order (i.e. Jan, Feb, Mar, etc.), and that is how your year went.  Afterwards, describe if it was accurate or not.

So today I achieved one of my life ambitions and passed out. I have decided that my new pet peeve is people who think Texas ( Read more... )

So today I was on Facebook and I randomly decided to click on the Wall-to-Wall between two of my flatmates from Scotland, and I saw this:

"By the way our random fricking frenchy [by which I take to mean that they now have a random French student living with them] is playing his guitar and singing. I mean the rudeness of it all. I want Trinity back!"

Today as I was coming back from town, I passed these five Jr. High-ish girls, and one of them was pushing a stroller.  In the stroller was not a small child nor a puppy nor any other living creature.  No, in the stroller was a stereo so they could listen to music while they walked around.  Not even joking.  That was the whole point of the stroller ( Read more... )

Philosophy final went okay this morning, although my concision once again bit me in the butt since I only wrote four paragraphs per question and it was recommended that we write six to seven.  But dude, I answered the questions fully, which is what matters.  It was really annoying, though, because I thought I was going to get a table to myself but ( Read more... )

I'm so over exams.  I had my History exam yesterday morning ... and I failed.  Like, literally failed.  Because we had to answer two questions, and I didn't know anything about the second question at all, so I was like, "Well, I could just not answer and be blatant about the fact that I have no clue, or I could B.S. a couple paragraphs and it will ( Read more... )

So my friend Liz is coming to visit me in Scotland this weekend. She's staying until Wednesday. She was supposed to come tonight, but her flight was cancelled, so she's coming tomorrow night instead. Is it bad that I'm happy? Probably.

Also, on Monday I went to the mall and there was a 3 for 2 sale on Torchwood books, so I bought all three from ( Read more... )

I just put on Rainbows for the first time in nearly three months.

It feels glorious!

ETA: I walked to the mall in my Rainbows this afternoon. I now have a blister on my big toe. I am not happy.

Am currently sitting in a uni computer lab.  Am sitting across from a girl who is having a conversation with her friend in her 'opposite sides of a football field' voice.  Am very, very annoyed.  Suspected she was American as she does not have a thick accent.  Have discovered she is British (possibly Scottish, but the accent is so slight it's ( Read more... )

In high school, I didn't really have friends.  I mean, I had friends in the sense that there was a group of certain people that I always sat with in class and at lunch and hung out with at school events.  But I didn't do stuff with them outside school; in the summer I never saw any of them, so in the summer I effectively didn't have friends.  It ( Read more... )

There are a few things I don't understand.

1. Why are there girls walking around outside in shorts and tanktops when it's 45ºF?

2. Why is British television so much better than American television? (Actually, this one is fairly easy to work out, but the answer involves a lot of cynicism on my part about the mental capacities of my countrymen.)

3. Why ( Read more... )
