Abstract? No Thanks.

I need to do an abstract on my lab research...I really don't feel like it. So I'm writing into the abyss of nobody.

Its funny, I happen to be sitting behind a large group of knitters.
There is a very funny dude here, he has many funny things to say:

  • "If we can make so many Barbies, why can't we clone humans by now?"
  • "It was a bias-incident against velociraptors." 
  • "You can not inverse racism" 
  • "I would love to stab the needle cushion with this. - And I return thy Excalibur to thy stone."
Oh, darn knitting group is gone, now I'm left here sort of angry and tired. It's only 8!  My eyes itch and I really don't want to go to math tomorrow, but I will because my boyfriend has made it clear that he thinks I'm just lazy and thats why I don't want to go. It's really just because math is the worst subject on this planet. I'm going to fail my exam, but honestly I don't really care, that is how much I hate math. There is nothing even relatively interesting about it. That would be the reason I have certainly not been doing my homework. I'm scraping by in math and I don't care. I actually probably do care, but I'm really trying not to. It really doesn't help that I'll go to my friggen 2 hour class and learn, well, nothing. The class is far too early and I'm not awake or interested. 

Ugh... curse you math.... curse you.

Here I am Again World.....

Hello there World!
And by world I mean the people (or lack of people) who actually read this. "Summer Bridge" is not hard, easy, does not prepare you for college. College is hard! Lots and lots and lots of work. Which is why it has certainly been awhile. It really doesn't help with the lack of people reading or following.

So right now... its late. Quite late, but I have shiny nails..lol. Nice healthy looking shiny nails, all thanks to the guy at them mall who pulled me in and put both me and my boyfriend into a trance with his amazing Israel accent and pretty blue green eyes. He got us to spend over $50 on some random stuff that makes your nails all shiny....oye. I wish I had more money....could I be any more original? 

What's been going on? Good question, time flies so fast....sooo fast. Between the last time I blogged and now here are some things that happened
  • Got a bright pink Christmas tree (woo hoo, Kohls sale)
  • Fought with my boyfriend about pilates (he doesn't even know what it is)
  • Laughed at my fat pet rats
  • Killed cancer cells in the lab
  • Discovered Peter Chao on youtube
  • Began practicing Italian with Assasin's Creed 2
  • Saw the Social Network
  • Tried Green Tea frozen yogurt
  • Screamed so the whole apartment building could hear me....(yes, that kind of scream LOL)
  • Saved over $500 on Black Friday
  • Got a delicious new flat screen             
Yup, so nothing any other human being hasn't done. By the way Hot Damn 100 proof is wicked.

Why am I writing right now? 
Feel like it. Boyfriend is stuck on his silly game and doesn't want to come to bed, plus I'm sort of trying to change my life. I want better grades, a healthier psych, and nicer bod. Again, just like any other human.

Sure, I can wish that people would love me and be dying to read my blog like in the movies. You know, the girl who gets the latest gossip or whatever and everyone just HAS to read it. This is not that blog, in fact I could probably care less about the JUICIEST GOSSIP, sorry, I'm boring. Which is probably why no one wants to read this. I have nothing new to say and usually nothing mean to say. I say usually because sometimes I get pissed....see my little explosion about some stupid little celebrity slut feeling the need to shut down a ride at one of the best places in the world...Cedar Point. 

So no one will read this, or maybe I'll get lucky and touch the human side of people. Here, a list of my very human qualities:
  • I feel like hardly anything fits me right, why can't I look like the mannequins?
  • Skinny girls who complain about how fat they are make me want to shove a cupcake in their mouth and push them down a hill.
  • I wish my life were like a TV show sometimes.
  • My family drives me insane and I wonder what they really care about.
  • I want a puppy more than anything, my own apartment and a puppy, please take everything away and give me a puppy. (Save my boyfriend, he's pretty darn good to me)
  • I wish I had more money, I feel like if I had more money, I could fix my problems, though I know thats not true
  • I want attention. Not a lot. Enough to say, hey you're noticed, you are worth someone's time.
  • I'm not fat, I just think I am. (One of the stupidest things I've said but its true, I'm not nice and skinny therefore, I'm fat, not logical, but I'd like to know someone else who can honestly say that with me)
  • I want more friends
  • I think I'm a fantastic cook
  • I feel better when I shop
  • I want my boyfriend to know how to dress, its a big turn on when men dress well.
  • I want to be the best at SOMETHING
So, there has GOT to be something in there that SOMEONE on this planet relates to. I'll say this now: 
The more feedback I get, the more I will write.
The less feedback I get the less I will write.....unless I just feel the need to write, then well, I'll simply write.
BUT if you LIKE it, COMMENT on it, if you DON'T LIKE it, COMMENT on it. I DO respond to COMMENTS in posts after the comment, or I comment on the comment. 

Guess I wish I could write just for the love of writing, not caring if anyone even read it, but then, what would be the point of typing it all up, onto the internet? For the sake of maybe someone will read this? Maybe, we will see as time passes. 

Peace, Love, and Cookies

Bloop

Another eventful week at the University of Michigan.

We kicked Notre Dames' butt!!!! Ha ha ha! We are victorious!
    Yes, it appeared to be a close game, but we still beat them even after they got a touchdown that they, well, shouldn't have gotten!
                  Most people know that you have to have the ball in hand when you make a touchdown. Apparently, that rule doesn't apply to Notre Dame...
               If you want to see this guy totally drop the football before he enters the endzone, click the linkymabob: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0teQMcJ211w&feature=player_embedded

Hahaha, I laugh again.

Ok, so watching an away football game in a dormitory is grand. Everybody is in their room, watching the game and you always know when something has happened. When our team makes a goal or interception the entire building erupts into cheers.
            The whole thing.
                     And then, after being victorious,
                          everyone yells back and forth at eachother for about a half an hour and its one big party!                  
                                       Woo Yea GO BLUE!

New Topic!

         When you work at a yogurt bar, you notice some amazing stereotypes! Based on my first week of work this is what I have gathered:
           Sorority Girls: Afraid to get fat so they want minimal gelato or yogurt. They'll have fruit as their topping, if they get a topping at all.
            Frat boys: Enjoy random flavors of frozen yogurt (aka froyo) with weird cereals and candies for toppings.
            Asians (no racism): Love original or green tea tart froyo with moshi... they love moshi!

A nice little story from work about some sorority girls...
          I was serving them some gelato and typically, I like to be the "cool employee" who gives the extra toppings, extra gelato, etc. So, I'm putting the gelato in the little gelato cup. (They are quite little, and expensive) I put like maybe half a cups worth in and she started freaking out and begging me (yes, begging me - with the please please please and all) not to put anymore in the cup....craziness...
         If you've ever had gelato.... you know
                                that it is AMAZING!
                                              YUM

I got a new microwave this week. Yay! I'm soooo happy about it, its very very shiny! YAY SHINY!

              My roommate blew a fuse today with the microwave! It was funny. Our RA had to call fix-it and they came and well...fixed it...

Have a great week everybody and remember, though I probably will not have time to actually write up a blog during the week (crazy crazy life), I do check my e-mail often and I check for comments!

Back to School!

Yippee!

Most people....
   are not
         excited to get
              back to school

But I am!

I'm back on campus people and I'm ready for life!

No more stupid required events and meetings or whatever.
I'm required to attend what I signed up to attend.
      Simple
             As
                 That

My room is grand, my roommate is grand, my residence hall is grand, my campus is grand, even my job is grand....yes...a job. (I know, shocking in this economy)

Classes start on Tuesday, so hopefully they are also grand.

      By the way....
          I hope you all were watching the aMAIZEing football game this past Saturday.
                  Because yes....we kicked some butt....
                       Some major butt...
                           TAKE THAT YOU LOUSY YUKONS!!!
                    Ha ha! GO BLUE!
Yes...we broke a record. Because we rock. With our awesome Big House.

            So yes...
                   Go Blue...
                         If you can't go Blue....
                 Then go maize....
  And if you can't do that....well....
                               Then GO HOME

New subject:
    My Job

I love my job!

I will not disclose it's exact name, but it serves Gelato, frozen yogurt, and smoothies!

Yay!
         I love love love all three of those things! (Notice I put three loves there! Ha ha, I'm so clever!)

So, I work at what they call a frozen yogurt bar.
    I think that makes me either a bartender or a barista.....I really don't know!
        I just know I make delicious things for the great people of Ann Arbor.

I have funny customers sometimes, I love them. The great people who make me chuckle!
        The little girl who doesn't care what kind of gelato she gets as long as it's pink.
            The little boy who just wants a few gummy bears...thats it...no ice cream.
   And my favorite of today:
            The chick who reminded me so much of myself...
                       She wanted half one flavor and half the other, though they didn't twist. Then she wanted her animal crackers smashed up to be more crumbly than they already were.

I love my customers!
            **If you happen to be one of the customers mentioned above (you know it is you) and don't like being up here, just send me an e-mail. I'll take it off promptly! Everything I write about you my dear customers is out of love!**


Alright people!
   If you like this...
            spread the word!
My inspiration for this entry here is from my most recent follower and her lovely comment about the awesomeness of Bath & Body Works! (BTW, I have the Exotic Coconut lotion also and I LOVE IT!)

Go tell all your friends about the crazy college girl!
     Tell them if they write I WILL RESPOND!
I'm quite the little opinionated person and I give fabulous advice also!

Random: After working hours in a yogurt place....you really want a cheeseburger....unless of course you're a vegetarian....then well....you wouldn't want a cheeseburger....maybe a pretzel or somethin...just a thought!

Thank you followers!!!

U of M Summer Bridge Program

You apply to the University of Michigan, you get in (yay!), but they say you are required to attend what they call the "Summer Bridge Program".

I went into the Bridge program with high hopes. I was excited to get immersed into college life and get to know campus. Things were going well in the nice air conditioned dormitory and the food was delicious! The classes were ridiculously easy and yet you had to attend and participate or else you were at risk for getting kicked out of Bridge.
Ok, I can take that, easy classes (which are worth credits!). I really hated waking up sooo early for math to be honest! Oh well.

The kicker for Bridge was the "mandatory events"
These were completely useless. (Well, most of them anyways)
If we did not attend these "events" we were written up or required to write a 10 page paper! What is even worse about these events is a lot of them were spur of the moment. The PAs would tell us the day before or even hours before about the event we were required to attend. When you are an adult away at college you do make plans!

I remember a couple specific events that really pissed me off. The first one was not on any schedule any where, we were told that there was a "surprise" mandatory event in two hours. The problem was that a large group of friends and I had made plans to go and see "Despicable Me" in an hour. We had this plan for about a week. We told the PAs we had these plans and we had had them for a week and they just told us that "sometimes there are things you just have to do". We were all thinking, this better be important, PAs are making a big enough fuss over it. So, two hours later we show up....what is it? It's a water balloon fight. We sat on a hill, the water balloon fight happened (with not nearly enough water balloons for everyone, they actually had to run around in little groups, one balloon per like 4 people) After about 45 seconds it was all over. That was it. They didn't even take attendance. We missed our movie for the lamest mandatory water balloon fight in history.

The next mandatory event was quite ridiculous also. During this one, everyone had midterms coming up and important papers to write for class. But, with a 4 hour notice we were notified via e-mail (and what if we decided not to check out e-mail that day, you'll see) that we were required to go to "The Arb" as a group for group activities. The Arb is like a mini forest with a couple clearings and like garden thing. So we all went to this thing (thinking about our papers and study time). The PAs led us to one of the clearings and we had a relay race. Then they tried to get us to play duck duck goose. (Really? And they keep calling us "adults", when was the last time you played mandatory duck duck goose?) Then we had to play tag, if you didn't participate in tag you had to write a 5 page paper. Seriously. What on earth am I supposed to be getting out of this!? This all took about 3 hours. 3 hours of wasted time. I hate my time wasted! One of my biggest pet peeves is my time wasted, just please, don't do it.
Now, what if you didn't get that e-mail?
The next day I was talking with one of my girlfriends. She was telling me about how it was her sister or cousins or bff's birthday (someone close to her) so they all went out to the mall and out to dinner. She never got the e-mail and she wasn't around to hear word of mouth. There are no rules about going into town, etc. She got in trouble. She was told she needed to write a 10 page paper. When she went to the "boss" of the PAs to explain what had happened, he told her it was her fault she didn't attend therefore she needs to write the paper. Yes, this is stupid.

Bridge Program. Should be shorter. Enough to know the campus. Not enough to waste my entire summer. Oh well, I'm moving out today! For a 10 day break and then on to Fall Term where I will be over worked and under rested!

Bleh

I had a feeling this would happen.

I would write.

No one would read.

Really boring actually.

Am I really just boring?

That sucks.

People who know me tell me quite the opposite.

That I'm a trip!

Well here, how about a boring story as to why my feet hurt and why my hand smells great:

I have been packing up my room ALL day, so I've been on my feet all day. (It's amazing the amount of stuff you can cram into one little dorm room!) While packing, I found my lighter (ooo pretty) and I set it on my desk. I continued packing and singing aloud to my music playing (badly I might add), I lost my scissors for cutting the tape so I started using my fingernail clippers (hey it works). Then I lost those. While looking around for my scissors and my clippers (I still haven't found the darn clippers) I got bored so I took body splash and sprayed my hand down with it then set it on fire. Yes, I set my hand on fire. Of course, the fire couldn't stay long because it became very warm, so I would put it out very quickly. So now my hand smells like Midnight Pomegrante. **Another company I will more than willingly advertise for: BATH AND BODY WORKS. I love them! The people on there are always uber nice and they have tons of yummy smells to fuel my addiction for yummy smellies.** Then I found my scissors hiding under a book and continued packing and singing terribly. Woo fun.

Now I am going to bed.

Tomorrow, I move out...

Just to move back in 10 days later...

Coming up: A review on what the University of Michigan calls the "Summer Bridge Program"

Boing

I'm awake. Uber. Yay Starbucks! Triple espresso and I guess I'm able to stay up until 5am without being so much as tired. I would really like to do my man right now, but my roommate is sleeping not 6ft away....sucks.... oye.... Tell me what is it that I am supposed to do with all this extra energy? I'm out of homework, and I don't feel like walking anywhere, I'm sick of doing that. Wayyy too much walking today, I'm done walking. Stupid lady pointing me in the wrong direction making me back track like 2 miles....ugh. Oh well then I will figure it out.

Oh, my dear readers, I'm actually shocked I got no comments on my hateful post. I expected some kind of reaction...

Something I learned today: Glen Beck is an idiot.
