Close Encounter
11/18/2004 08:08:00 PM Okay, so I was talking to Reid and Maggie earlier tonight, and Maggie was showing off her psychic ability (or what she calls "magic") and said, I bet Ruth is within 100 yds of you right now...and Ruth runs in at that exact moment, and tells me that Barb (girl from another floor) called her and said her car was dead and she was stuck at Snucks. So Ruth wanted me to come with her to jump-start Barbs piece of crap oldmobile (not as long or beastly as Maggies). So we go, and when we get there we see that Barb parked in front of one of those cart racks, making it nearly impossible to get Ruths car close enough to hook up Barbs fricken 2ft long jumper cables. So we try to position Ruths car in different places for about half an hour--IN THE RAIN! *which was even harder, because Ruths battery is on the opposite side of the car than Barbs (right, and the other left) so eventuall this guy sees us directing Ruth around (she thought that Barb was lying and the whole shebang was arranged to test her driving skills) and asks us, "Are you guys just trying to jump the car?" And I was like ,"YES?" to excited at the prospect that this dude may have a porteable jumper box, WHICH HE DID!! So this dude hooks it up, and Barbs car starts on the first try. So Ruth and wet Steph head back to the dorms, and search for a parking spot, where there were none. So Ruth decides to do flip a U-ey (do you know how long I sat here and debated how to spell that?) AT A 4-WAY STOP!!!! And just as we are flipped 180 degrees, who happens to be driving towards us like 2 ft ahead? A POLICE OFFICER!!! He just kinda waved, and we stopped freaking out. So then Ruth tries to park in a space about half the size of her car, and when that doesnt work, so she drives and does another U-turn....and then we get to the same 4-way stop as before, and she flips another one, before parking behind some car, before realizing she couldnt park there, and the reason it was open was because theres a giant half a block of driveway there. So she drives in reverse down the street to another place that looked open. And it was...about half way empty, like 6 feet of empty space before the sign that says no parking past this point. So we were like, "hey, the majority of the car, would be in the legal zone, so go for it" so while Ruth is backing up shes like, tell me if I hit the curb, and I was like, "okay....oh, your on the sidewalk" Lol, and then again, "k, your almost on the curb..yup, your tire is rubbing against it right now", so then shes like, "Okay, now tell me to stop before I hit this car", so shes backing up, and backing up, and suddenly I'm like "Eeee! Ahhh!" THUMP! I guess Eee, and Ahh, arent the equivalent of shouting "STOP!" or "Car!"...so Ruth was slighty upset with me. But it was really funny. So all in all I think we broke about 4 1/2 laws...not counting the illegal parking at the grocery store parking light while we tried to help Barb...oh and the half comes from the 1/3 of Ruths car that protrudes beyond the "No Parking Beyond This Point" sign..so maybe its more like 4 1/3... Anyways, Keep Ya Head Up, and Stay Righteous! -SkayDizzle Wednesday, November 17, 2004

11/17/2004 07:27:00 PM Oh yeah, Earlier Will and I were talking about how much we loved Blossom (tv show), 1) for the dancing in the giant hat at the begginning, and 2) because her best friends name was Six. Will just ran into my room to tell me that "Six" was on BET (guest staring on a diff show)...how long did that take? (if your confused, read below)

Scented Tampons
11/17/2004 06:04:00 PM So this morning I woke up, after only 5 hours of sleep, finished my paper, and was off to Psych. Unfortunately that class is bad enough when one is fully awake, so being tired previous to arrival was not good. I swear my head was bobbing around like crazy, because I was really struggling to stay awake. BUT I did it. Then I went to my Composition class. And was pleasantly surprised that I received a 30/25 on our quiz/test yesterday. How is that possible you may ask? Well, the whole thing was comprised of correcting sentences, and apparently I had a very good English teacher, because I have naturall reflexes that fix grammar. What I mean by this is that my current writing teacher, made some mistakes that were not supposed to be errors that you fix, but I did naturally just in rewriting the sentences. Examples: she wrote affect, and it was supposed to be "effect", so I wrote it that way, and found out it wasnt an intentional error, so I got bonus points. On another problem, she had the word "plead" used as past tense, but if she knew what she was doing, she would know that it had to be "pled" or "pleaded", and I corrected that error too, and got extra points, and so on and so forth. Then I was really tired and thought that since I did such a good job of not falling asleep in any of my classes, I should reward myself with a nap. But I got home and Will and Ruth took me to lunch with them. Then I talked to Kayla (and Katie, through Kayla) for a bit. Then I fully intended on napping after Kayla left for class, but Will came to bother me, and I totally wouldve blown him off and taken a nap anyways, but then Emily came in too. So we watched Boy Meets World, and two episodes of Full House before Will decided he should stop avoiding his paper. So everyone left, and I was going to nap, so I climbed up on my bed, but saw on TRL that Maroon 5 would have a premiere of their newest video, so I decided to watch that first. Then Ruth and Rachel came to get me for supper. So I went; they left after like 5 mins, which was sad, cause they made me go so fricken early with them and I wasnt even hungry, but Kristen, Sam, and Lacey were there so I stayed with them. Then I got back upstairs and found out no one invited Will to lunch so he was mad at me. Then he and Abby came to my room and we pretended to watch the Battle of the Sexes, but really I just made fun of Will alot. But he then decided to stop avoiding his paper, since he had to go to work soon (he got a new job at the Gap, and is getting me a discount card tonight). So then he left, and Abby stayed for a bit. Then I saw a box of tampons flying at me from my doorway, and grabbed them to hurl them back at the culprit. It was Will. SO I chased him and threw them at him. He ducked in Zanes room. Then he grabbed them to throw them at me, and I ducked into Ruths room. He ran in through Abbys bathroom to Ruths room to surprise me from behind, and I ran to my room, then jumped across to Abby'r room. By then we were just laughing, and Will pointed out that the box said the tampons were scented, and wondered what scented tampons smell like. He thinks they smell like Kool-Aid. Then he said he should probably get to work on his paper. So he left, and I started to type in my blog. But he's standing in my doorway now as I type this on his cell phone with his mom. And now he's telling me that his cell phone (a flip phone) growls at you when you shut it (because he pushes the vibrate button)...and something about clams...? Anyways, now he has to go work on his paper.....who wants to be me he shows up again in about 20 minutes? Keep ya head up, and stay righteous... -SkayDizzle Monday, November 15, 2004
So I'm sitting in class right now...
11/15/2004 01:57:00 PM And it's rather boring. Then it hit me, that I hadnt posted anything about Damien Fahey hosting the Late Late Show. And I felt that I needed to do that. Let's face it, I'm bored 'out of my gourd' and its the only thing I could find of any importance to post about in my blog. (Haha, this powerpoint said, "colors can add excitement to an event" ---well it sure isnt adding any excitement to my life right now...considering I'm here typing to you hosers who wont even read this for a week. I also suppose it doesnt help any that her presentation had a grey background with black font. Way to reiderate your point, eh? *and yes that was spoken with a Canadian accent) Anyways, to refocus once again, you know how they've been having guest hosts to replace Craig Kilborn on the Late Late Show, since he left to go do movies? No? You dont? Oh, well, anyways they've been having guest hosts to replace Craig Kilborn on the Late Late Show, since he left to go do movies. And they've invited 3 hosts to come back and do a trial week period. D.L. Hughley is this week I believe, and Fahey is next. So you should all watch...then he can have good ratings, and I can have both Conan and Fahey on late night television. It would be the ideal bubble to live in (especially if they had Will Ferrell and/or Jack Black on as guest every night. They can take turns). For me anyways. You all have your own little respective bubble-worlds. I think DL will get it though, since he's had experience as Jimmy Kimmels side kick, and becuase i think Network Execs are finally ready for a post-Arsenio black late night host. Best wishes to DL, hes a funny man. I've even watched the show a few times with him. But in my heart, Damien will always be the winner.... ;) I'm such a loser....

OKAY!! I Did It! I Caved!
11/14/2004 03:55:00 PM So What!? Big Deal! I listened to Christmas music..and its not even Thanksgiving yet! C'mon, I saw those christmas cookies at the store, and I had to get them, they looked good, and then I come back, and Holly and Charley are typing to me with their respective red and green font, and I was working on my Toys R Us Ad Campaign with Santa shopping there for Christmas...it was inevitable that I would have to listen to at least one song in Holiday Spirit. To be quite frank (not Ann), Im actually proud of myself for sticking it out THIS long! I did try. I even put in some country music hoping it would fill the void of the rare form of music I had been missing since last December...no such luck however. It is odd though how many country songs have a "Christmassy" feel to them. And Ruth was listening to John Stevens down the hallway, who sounds like Franky and Bing Crosby, who sing loads of Christmas songs...I just had to. There! Are Ya Happy Now!

Itty Bitty Bundles of Id
11/12/2004 11:47:00 PM You guys are all a bunch of JERKS!!! (I havent used that word since 1995, so it sounds odd, and I may not even know the true context of the word anymore, but thats what you are) You know who Im talking about! Yeah You! (not you Kayla--Kayla updated her blog, even though she just put, I dont feel like updating my blog) But the rest of you are a bunch of hosers. I've almost updated my blog about 5 times this week, but every time I visit mine, or select few others, I see that no on else is bothering to fil me in on THEIR lives, so then I get depressed and go look at pictures of Ryan Seacrest. See what you drive me to.... Okay so today in my psychology class, my teacher was talking about "Id" and how it is the part of your mind that is always wanting and wanting it right now...then he continued to compare it to babies and basically told us, "Thats what babies are...little bundles of Id". I enjoyed that. And then Sam convinced me to go check my mail, even though I never have anything, but I did today, although it kinda scared me. Any guesses about what Steph got in the mail? Or from whom? OkAy, think of the key ingredients of a person that Im listing....crazy....Clay....crazy....her name is Julie.......oh crap Yes, so I got mail from Julie: a lovely letter about the dangers of sleeping with Mrs. G, and a bunch of cut outs from teeny bopper (I just like the fact that I got to use that phrase) magzines of Kelly Clarkson. (althought there was no steamy pin-up of Mr. Nasty himself, Simon Cowell :( Then Will came to my room whilst I was dancing around singing, "Boogie On Down", and asked me if I wanted to buy any of the cds he was holding in his hands...and they were all really crappy so I said no, and then he wanted me to go to the cd store and try to sell them. So we walked in the cold, cold, freezing, cold. (I couldnt think of appropriate adjectives to describe the cold besides those) And they didnt even look at the quality of the cds before they rejected us (otherwise they wouldve realized that my AL Green Greatest Hits was a gold mine). So I was really really bored, and avoiding typing in my blog (why should I help satisfy any of you hoser's future boredom by giving you material to read?) and I decided I needed to do something useful with all of my useless crap. SO I taped it all to Abby's door. Seriously, the 3 cds I tried to hawk downtown, all the pictures of Kelly Clarkson, a free box of tampons some strange girl was handing out, and Abby's own shoe that she threw at me, and didnt realize she never got back...? It looked really cool, and she was happy with it. Then I stole the giant triangle/pyramid style cone from the hallway that said, "caution when wet" and taped it to Zanes door, along with his doormat....that was even cooler. I might be able to send you some pictures later. IF I decide to turn the lights in the hallway back on so I can take one (again, I was really really bored, and I discovered the fuse box...do I need explain further?) Monday, November 08, 2004
Haha! Suckers!
11/08/2004 01:07:00 PM I just checked The Others'(no not like the Nicole Kidman movie) blogs, and no one else has udated since All Hallows Eve either!!!! Na Na Na Na Naaaa Na! (Wait, that sounded less like teasing, and more like "gettin jiggy wit it" in my head) Just thought Id point this out. (How crazy is that though...did something happen over Halloween? Did Aliens come and stall time, and alter our minds to forget about blogging, and then start it up again so we would move on without ever noticing? And how long would this have gone on, if I hadnt broken the continuum? And is that how you spell continuum? And why am I asking so many questions? Are any of you going to answer these questions? Are you even reading at this point? HEllO! Is anyone there?!) (I think my panic attack is still very apparent and growing--youll get it when you read the previous post)
HOLY FREAKIN JELLY BELLIES!!!!
11/08/2004 11:43:00 AM I havent posted in my blog since Halloween....thats like a couple weeks ago....thats like almost a month without posting anything....thats like insane....thats like...okay Im out of things to say, "thats like" to.... How did Reid not kill me yet? This amazes me... Current Mood: Oddly Happy -though I shouldnt be Current Music:"What You Waitin For" Gwen Stefani You know how when you spend a day getting all your homework done early, and are kinda on a high, because now you time to not worry about doing your homework, and you are just estatic to have free time to do whatever you want....yeah, thats the kinda feeling I have right now, although, I didn't just finish a bunch of homework, and I actually could be working on that instead of posting away in my blog as if I had all the time in the world; but its just something that needed to be done. Today I got my Toy Experiment Paper back from Psych, and I got a 100% on it, so that made me happy. First one Ive had in that class. I suppose it makes having to suffer from Phillip Zimbardo a little more worthwhile. Someone needs to just run that man over. Oh yeah, the other reason why I shouldnt be happy, is because this morning, I went to pick up film that I took to get developed for me and my partner, and was pleasantly (or not so pleasantly) surprised to hear that none of the film could be developed or transfered to slides, because the film had been exposed, and now was completely blank. Yeah, that wasnt fun. Neither was sitting there being lectured to from this lady about how horrible Webster is with keeping up its accounts, and they better pay for this anyways, even though the film was never developed. I never before had thought it was possible to take an hour and fifteen minutes to "pick up film". I still feel really bad for my partner(and me too, I took some awesome pictures--I got like 2 feet from a squirrel on a tree stump, it woulda been neat), so I hope our teacher understands to some extent and we can redo the project, even with a late-deduction or something. The other day I went sock shopping though, and I think that maybe the fact that Im wearing really cool, and new, socks may be contributing to my lovely mood. That and I just watched my other project I had due for that class, and watched the funny black and white photos set to Jaws music (oh yeah, if I forgot to mention, I decided against the Mary Poppins tunes, and instead went for the classic Jaws--makes it so much funnier. Although, to keep with the mixed factors of today, I told my partner about our film and he told me that our other other powerpoint project (chapter summary), isnt done yet. He has my slides, and his put together, but hes still waiting on Danny's (our other, "Silent" partner)....and we have class in an hour.....so you can see how delightful this outcome is looking. My teacher is going to hate me. This is yet another of the many downfalls to group assignments. More often than not, (or as it appears to me, from my experiences) group projects SUCK! Either one person (or 2 whatever) do all the work, or get stuck doing the majority, or one person (or 2 whatever) screws up the entire project and the others get stuck trying clean up the mess, and fix it. OR fate intervenes, and the Titanic presentation plays once, well, and then doesnt work at all anymore. It's not even like we hit an iceberg or anything, we didnt do ANYTHING, it just died on us....anyways, not to get re-caught up in that drama... Is it sad that Im still upset about that? I can tell that i still am bothered by that event, because now my heartrate is increasing and im feeling a bit of bitterness sneaking into my delightful mood...and Im starting to panic suddenly about class....hopefully this is just another one of my sudden 10 sec attacks, and by the time I go to lunch and return, I will be perfectly fine, and ready to attack class with a professional attitude....hopefully. |

Sounds like you had a good/exciting time. And I think it would have been less good, but more exciting if Ruth would have been pulled over for the U-turn. But that's just my opinion. Thanks for the metion, but are Maggie's magic powers (which would be cooler if they were "Maggic" powers) as good as my telepathetic powers? I hate scholorship applications. Keep it real. Irish Midget.
Reid
Stay strong live long, and have a happy tomorrow.
Steph I hope you got home safe. Have a great Thanksgiving. Hopefully I'll see you sometime this weekend. Keep it real. Irish Midget.
