Early Birthday

My friends from Eugene both had the night off as well as I and my friend that lives in keizer so my friends drove up here to Salem and we went to Keizer bought beer and chips and dip and rolls of dimes and played a lot of poker. :) It was so much fun to be able to see them all again. I'm really glad for spring break it made me realize how much I love hanging out with them because everyone moved when i moved to new jersey and when I got back it just wasn't the same. Hopefully it'll be better soon but I think 2 of them are moving away to Pennsylvania maybe :( Which would break my heart. NO ONE can make me laugh like the 3 of them . Oh yeah, and I lost 10 dollars in dimes :( haha

So excited!

So we just got our new free stuff handed out at work. I usually get all this stuff and it's like in a size small but today i got my things are I got a free Michael Stars shirt that's like 65 bucks and it fits and it's super cute!! I am in love it's so comfortable. I thought it was going to be way too small because it's one size fits (almost) like all of their other stuff. They have super cute clothes though. We just started carrying his stuff in TBD outside of Savvy (for those of you who shop at Nordstrom too much) I love love love it. I couldn't find a picture of it online but it's black square neck with elbow sleeves. Check out his other stuff, i see his ads in vogue all the time. Click on the picture to go to the site.

Meet Harold

This is Harold my rabbit. He is 1 and a half years old. Harold absolutely LOVES playing with plastic bags. He steals them from us when we unload the groceries. Sometimes he runs around the entire house doing this. <3

Snow white an evil dictator?

The other day I decided to watch that new movie Enchanted (besides being sorely disappointed) I noticed something, She was making the animals clean up HER mess in the cottage? Excuse me! Where do "Giselle" and Snow White get off forcing animals into labor for her? Maybe she deserved the poison apple.


" We adore each filthy chore
That we determine
So friends even though you’re vermin
We’re a happy working song"

Finals are over

Tomorrow finals are over. I will be so relieved. Nothing to worry about, stress free time. Until next term that is. I have gone to battle and come out alive. FREE.

Toe Etiquette

So the other day at work during our department meeting we had to have a discussion about foot Etiquette. It is pretty sad that this is a necessary discussion? It also validates my opinion that this is the most brain dead job in the world. Here is the little list that was passed out to us. So raise your toes and pledge too... please.

• My toes will not hang over and touch the ground, nor will my heels spill over the backs. And the sides and tops of my feet will not pudge out between the straps.
• I will go polish-free or vow to keep the polish fresh, intact and chip-free.
• I will not cheat and just touch up my big toe.
• I will sand down any mounds of skin before they turn hard and yellow.
• I will shave the hairs off my big toe.

• I won't wear pantyhose even if my misinformed girlfriend, coworker, mother, sister tells me the toe seam really will stay under my toes if I tuck it there.
• I promise to replace the tip of my heel once I wear it down to the nail so I won't click clack everywhere.

New Tune Monday

I was never a fan of the killers until I heard Read my mind from their album sams town.
This is their newest video. It's pretty good. I enjoy it.
If it doesn't make sense try thinking about the numbers in the right order

Bad Boyfriend

When he talks about you behind your back.. keeping in mind I don't even know this guy.
He stole money out of his girlfriends bank account..

be with a man who for once made her doubt herself.
where did you go?
Please come back soon.

Any ideas people?

Man's a genius

I AGREE!

Re: Obama

In response to Kristin's blog post "Obama"

So I've been thinking about these things a lot too. I don't really feel like I am for either one of the democratic candidates this time around. I feel like Hilary maybe has a hidden agenda due to her past of dealing with the health care industry and drug companies and how in the past they've pretty much bought her over and I feel that Obama may be more talk than action and that he's not really prepared to follow through? I think we are at a point right now in history where we can either continue the path we are on which is not a good one or there's going to be a revolution one way or another. Can't you feel it? I feel like their is more youth now standing up saying what the want and they feel about politics because really, in the past the majority of voters is elderly... and they are deciding based upon their experiences and their values whats right for future generations. Shouldn't we make a decision what's right for us now? Anyways, I haven't really decided who I'd like to see in office but hopefully something better is coming. If I had to chose a candidate today it would be Ron Paul.. I guess it's the only option I see for change.
On another note...
The other day i was reading something and it said that Within the next few years that China would become the number one English speaking country in the world... food for thought.


Proud to be a Democrat

What the hell happened to her.

So it's been awhile since I've felt like myself. It's really kind of depressing. I'm sure its taking a toll on me. I don't do the things I enjoy anymore and my looks have really taken a toll hahaha. I feel like one of those women who this is the point in my life where if i don't change from things the way they are now then in 10 years people will just stop and think "what the hell happened to her" Yeah.

Plastic

So I've been thinking about this recently.. how much we ridiculously over use plastic! It's made for everything and it just sits in landfills unless it's the recyclable thing but you think someone seriously would have come up with a biodegradable alternative to it. So I think I'm going to take off on this trend of carrying around my own re-usable shopping bag... one that's easy to slip in my purse. How many things on your desk are made out of plastic at this moment?? Repost with your answer. For me.. about 20 something.
I've decided to post the 3 cutest re-usable eco-friendly shopping bag sites!! Click the pictures for the website.

























These are all so cute! The first site has lots of great bags for compact storage or heavy duty shopping. The second (feed) bag is a little bit spendy but when you purchase the bag you'll be doing double duty good, every purchase of this re-usable goes to feeding a child for one school year. The last site has fantastic modern and stylish choices in all sorts of colors and patters, they even have a set of organic bags and a whole section just for kids! Love it!

New Tune Monday

Josh ritter- Girl in the war

Broccoli trees

Dexter: what are you eating for lunch?
Me: Broccoli
Dexter: Are you pretending that you are a giant eating trees?




I think I found someone equally randomly amusing as me.

New tune Monday

So I've decided that every Monday I'm going to post a new song that I'm liking for the week. Each week should start out with a new song right??

So for this week I chose Satellite by Guster. It's not that it's a particularly "advanced" song but it's catchy and I love the scene it's set to in the new John Cusak movie Martian child. When they are doing the martian talk scene. So cute! "You're my satellite, you're riding with me tonight, passenger side, high in the sky, always the first star that I find"
Any ways.. enjoy.
And it's too bad the video really sucks.. they could have come up with something better.

Credit cards

These are one of the hugest stressors in human life.... but they are completely avoidable? So why do people choose to do this? Do credit card companies really lure youth in as well as adults? Or do we just not ever really learn the consequences of poor money management... why don't they teach useful stuff like this in school? Something that kids that don't even really pay attention or understand what year the war of 1812 was in can benefit from? Why do so many other people that are my age that I talk to already battling with credit problems? How have we let this become a problem for old and young alike? Isn't it kind of sickening that kids as young as 18 are killing themselves because they feel like there's no other way to escape the debt? I'm not gonna lie, it's definitely crossed my mind. Being a full time employee and a full time student is so stressful enough that the though of adding one thing onto i pretty much want to cry. It got to the point of throwing up every time a bill or letter came from one of the companies I owe money too. And then to top it all off if you even try to call them and explain or ask for help they transfer you to someone in India who can hardly speak English and it just makes you more angry...... the other day I called to change my address from new jersey to Oregon and I found out they had made my address in Salem morgan, Oregon. I mean seriously... come on how retarded do you have to be???! Anyways. I know eventually I'll get out of it.. but for now it's causing me way tooo much stress. There ought to be better things in place for this stuff. I wonder what percentage of kids actually owe money to credit companies... and now with school costs rising and kids taking out loans left and right.... I don't think that theres any way a kid who is at least age 25 hasn't taken out some kind of credit card or loan (oh yeah that's in a college) doesn't that just seem kind of odd? Like we can't even make it through out life without having someone loan us money and then adding an interest fee?

Hairy spider for president- 08!

So last night I had a dream that this big huge black spider was running for president and I almost squished him, then when it came to elections I couldn't make up my mind between him and Ron Paul. Ha it was pretty amusing.

Oh my! You've got a huge..

Ego.
Yes you. You do. You know who you are! Do you think you are god? Posting pictures of yourself from every angle and pseudo "photo shoots" so you call them. To yourself you look pretty damn good but you've never looked more pathetically attention starved and ugly to me. You used to actually have a personality before you became an untouchable in your head. The whole world doesn't need to know that you will be 21 on the 22nd... like you tell us every day.. calm the fuck down... seriously. I hope for your birthday you get a hat that will cover your huge head asshole.

Lean Cuisine ..

Is seriously delicious.
