102908 - Election day draws nearererer

I hate wearing jeans. I want to put on a pair of shorts and walk in flip-flops. The weather is not very nice this fall. What happened to my windbreaker weather?

It went straight from 85 degrees, nice and warm to freeze-my-toes-off cold.

Yesterday, Ralph and I watched 6 hrs worth of "Greek" on ABC Family. Don't judge me, but I'm kind of addicted. Cappie and Casey need to be together.

Another show that I wish I watched more often is "Gossip Girl." I was so into it when it first came out but now I can't seem to find the time to devote to television. My knowledge of Pop culture is diminishing by the episode.

In other news, I'm going to go and read the Great Society speech by Lyndon Johnson.

if anyone happens to have a copy of Twilight by Stephanie Meyer, let me know.

102708 - It's already October?

so last night some housemates and I watched Peter Pan - while we made our halloween costumes. We are going out as the cast of the Disney classic .. just in case you didn't catch the correlation.

Anyhoo, I'm Princess Tiger Lily. I shall post pictures and they shall be glorious.

So I really can't wait for Thanksgiving so I can see my family. I miss them dearly.

nothing else new has really happened. I'm content, that is all.

oh and I finished Booth Tarkington's "The Magnificent Ambersons." I was not that impressed, but then again, I am hard to impress I guess when it comes to books and movies. Me and the housemates decided that we wanted some cultural enrichment so we decided on reading the top 100 novels according to the Associated Press and watch the top 100 movies according to the American Film Institute.

oh the ideas we come up with.

I'm dancing three dances in Diwali.

There are plenty of songs I like to listen to

Save Me From Myself (Originally performed by Christina Aguilera) - covered by Alyssa Bernal
Free Fallin' (Originally performed by Tom Petty) - covered by John Mayer
Love Story - Taylor Swift

I can't wait for Taylor Swift's new CD. I just might buy it.

I really want to see the movie Nick and Norah's infinite playlist .. or I think that's what it's called. It has Michael Cera, I'm already in love.

Fall Break is finally here. I really needed it; spending it in Cincinnati. I'm so behind on my reading for classes, not to mention sleep. I never get to sleep anymore .. except, I feel like I sleep all the time .. I just never get good sleep though. That is a problem.

My phone is the dumbest piece of equipment ever though. While I'm in the middle of texting someone or calling someone, it just randomly decides to freeze and the only way that I can get it to unfreeze and start working again is if I take the battery out and restart the entire system.

I wish I just had a regular phone that was NOT a pocket PC. those things .. waste.

Junior year is going well. I am enjoying my classes. I love my professors. And I'm still involved in all the clubs that I am passionate about. It's a good feeling doing things you like to do.

I really hope my parents come this weekend. They said they would but I know that they're busy and sometimes plans change. I just would really like to see my family .. it's been too long. I think 2 months. Why does 2 months not sound so long ... idk.

ALSO I'm on the radio (Kiss 107.1) sounding like a total tool, but whatev .. I'll take whatever air time I can get.

I hope the best for my friends. I always wish them well. I want them to succeed in everything they do, and they deserve ever blessing that God bestows upon them. I love them and I would do anything for them.

Oh another thing, I'm really into the Office now. I never used to watch that show .. in fact, in the past, if I had passed it on tv, I would have been angry that it was even on. The show is genius, I was stupid, I admit defeat.

in other news, I've also printed out AFI's list of greatest movies .. I'm gonna watch them all. I also printed out Time Magazine's list of top 100 best novels. I will read them all. A little cultural enrichment never hurt nobody.

this is the longest blog I've ever blogged .. in a while I guess.
