Let's talk about being awkward. Who wants to start?
Last night, our student press hosted a dinner/dance event right after the night's basketball game. A band was hired, food was catered, I wore makeup, and only 15-ish people attended. K couldn't believe it, and I tried my best to cheer her up; she and Ms. D worked ridiculously hard to get it organized, and such low attendance got them down. But once ( Read more... ) -
It's not Christmas Eve without tornado warnings.
Good news: GRADES HAVE BEEN CHECKED! (Actually, I checked them three weeks ago, but let's not rain on the parade.) An A in literature; B+ in public speaking; B in bio; B in bio lab; B in math, and B in Grecco-Roman history. I officially have my A.A., am enrolled at the university, and LET ME SAY THIS: the Fall semester had so many oh-god-I-failed ( Read more... ) -
What is this, the 12th? Where did the 4th go?
Hope everyone had a bearable holiday. (My family managed to spend four days together in one house and ate real food thanks to the little bro, who grilled out for us. Thank goodness for siblings.)
Over the break, I watched (due to my Ancient Humanities class, which compelled me to rent these):

Fine, if you're so smart, *you* rig up the lights!
I have informed Dad that I'm too energy-less to handle one more day of Christmas-related activities. To emphasize, Mom came into my room around 8:00 this morning and asked if I wanted to go shopping ( Read more... ) -
Not a creature was stirring (except me).
Last night, a lovely Corsair editor hosted a little Christmas shindig. There was a bonfire, over which we roasted (or set ablaze, depending) marshmallows and ate eggrolls and watched Jingle All the WayMom baked her fingers off today. She made banana bread, fruitcake cookies, sugar cookies, peppermint scones, and fudge that sent me into a comatose ( Read more... ) -
Bad weather+event you don't care about+being slightly smelly=perfect plan to get a man.
Today (tonight? This morning?) was Kristin's (a lovely editor at the paper) birthday. She invited me to her shindig, and I will say this: her parents really outdid themselves ( Read more... ) -
Son, don't ask / neither how full nor empty is your glass.
- I just got over another cold; was it a relapse or just another strain? No idea. But I can tell you it was debilitating the first two days and just plain miserable the rest of the time. My voice was missing the first day, so I got people's attention by angrily clapping my hands together and pointing to what I needed/wanted.

She wouldn't let me sing the Birthday Song in the restaraunt. Seriously, there was no humiliation!
Happy birthday, puddingsworth!
Today was my very fabulous friend's very fabulous birthday. We had Greek food (so delicious), explored downtown (so hot), and unwrapped presents (so customary)! She even found herself a hat. A pink hat, which makes it all the more awesome.
Mom gave her this monstrosity purse:
