Of Pantsuits and Paperwork


Oh Hillary. Oh Hillary, Hillary, Hillary. :-( I hereby nominate this for UGLIEST pantsuit of the year (to date.) This... this is just bad. n.n but on the bright side -- I found a bunch of Hillary Clinton-focused blogs I've been following that are pretty entertaining and informative about both what she's up to and foreign policy! "All Things Hillary" for example examines the policies, politics and pantsuits of my favorite Secretary of State.

Speaking of foreign policy, I frettingly turned in another portion of my study abroad application this week (I've been pseudo-accepted, twice now, I guess it's not official til I land in Seoul?) But that's just one of the things I've had to do - and included an essay about myself for the Korean univeristy to learn about me. Also, I'm strongly considering taking Japanese I next semester - it's already on my schedule now, unless I decide to drop it. Why Learn Japanese, you ask? Well, for a number of reasons listed on that site, but I really want to learn a foreign language already! And Japanese seems interesting!

I've had a bunch of papers due this week that are in and yay. And This upcoming week -- thank GOD I don't actually have papers due, just some reading, so I'm hoping for a light week! David's coming by on Tuesday, spending the night, and Wednesday I'll be going with him to Grandpa's to fix his cell phone plan.

Quote of the Day:
"Circle the answer that is not not-untrue..."

Haha, anyone who remembers the ridiculous test my US History teacher made weirdly, this kid was referencing that whole incident. The other day we were staying after class, and another kid who comments during the whole lecture like I do saw how I quote the teacher on the side of my notes and we had a laugh. Here are a few of her interesting quotes just from that lecture!

"Smoking Geraniums!"

"Exactly, cause ya know, slavery is slavery..." (ooooh, that's deep...)

"[Stephen] Douglas was back like a bad rash!"

"Stephen Douglas was just shocked out of his socks..."

Song of the Day: "Like a Knife" by Secondhand Serenade. After buying their CD, there are actually a good number of their songs I'm learning to like! I say "they" but Secondhand Serenade is apparently one person o.o; how strange.

Really Late Birthday Present Idea: OMG! So I vaguely heard about the Obama chia's on the news recently, being taken off shelves because it's considered racist u.u; I dunno how I feel about the issue, because it's not really an issue, I have more important things to do with my time. But OMG -- those who are still interested in finding me a birthday present:
Chia Hillary! I kid you not. This is the "Happy" version...
And here we have the "Determined Chia Hillary."
Coming to a Walgreen's near you I hope! :D

Haha! Chia Hilary? And that pantsuit...

You never fail to amuse me, friend. And neither does Hilary.

Losing all my Drive

First, a hair update. The dying went interestingly to say the least. I was reminded once again of how much of a cry baby I am, can't stand a little scorching burning sensation. While I was aiming for something along the lines of this , Circle K members seem to think I hit more of a Nazi kid from the movie "The Pacifier" -- I've actually never seen it, but Tiffany owns it and I'll have to borrow it sometime. (Googling a bit, this guy is likely who they're referring to.) Ugh, so had another stressful day. Since waking up I pretty much hadn't had five minutes to just sit down, and literally finally found 3 minutes to eat a Banquet in the middle of the day (roommates judge how they want - when I only have 3 minutes for a meal, I'm really not all that picky.) Got to vote, picked up my check from home, and took a wrong turn on the high way and ended up taking 8 South to 77. (Two separate ways to get to Akron, but taking one to the other was a major waste of

The Magic School Bus: "For Sail!"

Image
So I survived the weekend! What'dya know? On top of that, I finally figured out how uTorrent works, so I was able to download the entire series of The Magic School Bus - which has been helping me through those 4 hour shifts on campus (Am. Eagle is another story...) But it's 6 am, I thought I'd share with you some dazzling discoveries of merchandise and mementos! OMG! I TOTALLY had this toy growing up! :D And boy did I love it. I found it on eBay, but it's 30 bucks - and I don't *need* it, I have my memories from my Childhood, and it's just sit on a shelf somewhere... (NO! Must NOT buy it... fighting... urge...) But it was awesome! Part of the point of this blog is to keep pictures I find for future reference, gotta jog those Childhood Memories some times. See, the thing came with all those pieces, that fit inside the bus (The roof came off.) I remember being bitter about how of the things the bus could turn into, this drill one never appeared in an episode,

Observations on Captain Kirk's Quarters

Image
So I've been in a bit of a Star Trek mood lately, and right now I'm watching the movie Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country before bed. Having noticed a few things I'd never noticed before, I feel like I should publish them on the internet somewhere! Firstly, I have the utmost respect and love for the people who make the tiny details of Star Trek possible. Mike Okuda in particular, who designed all of the major Starfleet computer screen layouts. And a little random background in case your curious, Star Trek VI is the sixth Star Trek movie that came out a little after Star Trek: The Next Generation aired. It is the last film to focus solely on the original crew, and is set aboard the USS Enterprise-A (the second of six Federation Starships named Enterprise.) So, onto my observations! "...I can never forgive them for killing my boy." (Kirk's son David was introduced in Star Trek II, only to be killed by the Klingons in Star Trek III.) First thi
