Put a Bird on it!

I put a bird on it!

My blog. Portlandia is pretty ridiculous and funny and when I found out this was real I was like, "I need to do this and share it with some of my friends."

I feel like I most show this to the people. I'm actually surprised this website worked cuz a lot of websites I put in didn't work. Non-popular sites I suppose. hahaahaha oh well. Anyways, enjoy this ridiculousness :)

idk

not sure what to do with myself, i feel like crying but at the same time I don't like what I'm feeling but at the same time, i like this feeling.

I know i'm very complex. I know you guys won't understand what I'm saying unless you've been down this road before.

I feel like this is hard to deal with, i'm stressed but I'm confused. Something is wrong with me.

Changes

Blogger has changed A LOT since i was on here last. its sooooo different. I guess I'll play around on it and see what I can figure out. Also, a lot has changed in my life. I let go of some people and also welcoming new people, and hanging out with more people who I don't normally hang out with. Its kind of awesome. I still get along with my roommates (going on yr 2), I'm still with my boyfriend (4 yrs), hanging out with my roommates friends a little more, school is getting kind of better. Just working this summer and going to belle isle a lot this summer- along with a 5k, family, friends, and trips. I already had a taco night with like 6 other friends and it was so much fun. I want to do that like all the time. This summer is going to be fun. I hope it stays like this for awhile.

This Sat I'm going to do a SUP trip- Stand-up Paddle boarding. I'm excited to try something new.

BULLSHIT

Bad day today:

I had to drag my butt outta bed (for some reason I went to bed early- 12), went to work- can barely hear cuz there was a game last night (VCU WON CAA TOURNY- that means automatic NCAA!) anyways, then got yelled at, at work cuz I didn't put allergy aware seafood- which they ordered japanese pan noodles which has no seafood in it at all.
Then after work, I was writing down my schedule and it looks like I dont have a spring break (even though I asked off) I was planning on going to the beach with my roommates and some friends. This blows. A lot.

I was just looking forward to this. I think I didn't get off because there were too many people that asked off for spring break. I did ask off at least 2 weeks in advanced, guess thats not good enough?

Bad mood today: sooo, screamo music it is. It makes me happy when I'm in these moods- cuz I wanna scream but i don't scream awesome so, they do it for me. I feel like when I listen to them, i don't feel cramped with stress that the day brought me. idk its hard to explain. but i love it.

Finals...

For some reason I can't concentrate to study. I need to study though. I'm trying...it worked for a little bit...ugh. Why can't I do this? Plus, Clem is on my notes. ...not helping.

Hold on gotta get my yacht...

So, me & my roommate Alex were looking at this video and when it was over we looked at the linked videos. One of them was this site: JetLev.com and its a water based jetpack. Crazy right?! It exists. The best part was when it was telling us how it works. It was like a mini boat or something but it was a motor and its "allowing easy storage on most yachts" and its connected to this hose that pumps out this water into this jetpack and u can basically fly in the water.

If you want this precious gift, it's only $99,500. AND just go down to ur local FL or CA JetLav Technolgy store, or even the yacht store will have these. Just for your convenience. FOR REALZ?!

RANT! probably worst week

Trying to go to as much Pep Band events as much as possible but my EFFIN work won't really work around it even though I gave them a schedule. RETARDED. I tried to barter with one of my managers hes like hey, can u work from 12-3 on tues. (which im already working 4-close) I'm like I can if i dont work thurs night. hes like ...nvm, good luck bout thurs. im like wow, thanks for not helping and being a dick.
Speaking of which, thats just one example of being bitchy to me that happened to me this week. Idk what was up with this week. Lets see, I parked my car in between a motorcycle & a car, I fit, there was enough room for me & I was going to Pep Band and walking towards the center where the game was & as I was walking away i hear this lady (that was putting on her motorcycle helmet) yell, "yea, bitch...." (blah blah blah i couldn't hear cuz i was like half way down the rd.) but they were leaving so idk what the problem was exactly- I saw a spot, i paralleled parked, and then as they were leaving called me a bitch. makes sense? no. anyways.
Another example that happened to me, at work, when they say i do something wrong they say it like duh, u should know this. so i guess i kinda get offensive. but this time i wasn't. they told me something, i was like no, blah blah. then he was like woah no need to get offensive. im like .....i wasn't..? so wtf there. AND I also don't/barely have time for homework because i'm freakin workin all these doubles. hate. so stupid.

SO I knew & didn't know bout these things

25 foods you'll never eat again this site are things we miss, or were good and not good. I do wish some of these things were still around. -sigh- Check it out.

Germany, Switzerland, & a lil France

SO- my trip was AWESOME! We spent most of the week in Switzerland.
Switzerland: We went to 1 or 2 castles there, went down rafting on glacier water and swam in it (very cold), went hiking a lot, hiked up a 1,000 ft mountain & watched the sunset & watched fireworks up there & set some off on our own (well worth the hike literally breathtaking har har), hiked to a waterfall(s), fondued for the first time with the Swiss Alps in the background, took a cable car up the Swiss Alps and hiked the rest of the way up to a 9,000 ft mountain- beautiful view, (different day) rode on the longest cable car in Europe and hiked (bout 7,000 ft mountain) across it & petted some cows (which were everywhere in Switzerland) and they were loud cuz of their bells & rode the train down, Shopped a little and it was a beautiful outdoor shopping area. Feed some ducks, saw a golden man "statue" (real dude) he was cool (before I took the picture of him & Sebastian the statue dude scared this woman and she jumped and it was hilarious lol).
Germany: spent only like 4 days there. Saw 2 castles there (hiked to one castle and RIGHT after we saw it my sole of my boot broke off so i had to hike down the mountain with lopsided shoes- luckily, someone picked me up in a car after i hiked down the mountain a little bit- drove rest of the way), Sebastian's Grandma's bday party, hiked up a mountain that overlooked the little town, went swimming at this indoor/outside pool- had a slide and a GIANT hot-tub where u could swim from one side to the other- and had jets in the pool too, it was a lot of fun, shopped a little there too.
France: Went to one castle there and it rained that day but it started after we were done looking at it, saw a proposal there too- so cute, and went to Monkey Mountain (different day) & fed monkeys popcorn. It was like a free range park- they were sitting on benches & going anywhere they wanted basically- it was cool.
I think thats it- we did something pretty much everyday and pretty much immediately off the plane. But, everything was so worth it. I had a blast :) I'm very happy I got to go :) Hope I didn't leave out anything :p

Google+ & other stuff

Have you guys checked out Google+? If you haven't it's kinda like fb but its a little smoother & you can only be invited in. Kinda like a secret club but only if u have their email address LOL. idk. weird. But, anyways, there's this "dropbox" where u can literally drag & drop pictures you want and a lot easier to download. its awesome i wish fb was like that. it'd make things a little easier but the only thing that sucks is that you have to do it one at a time. LAME. anyways. Listening to "The Interior" which is my awesome friend i've known for like 7-8 yrs. His new song is awesome. He's so talented. I miss him. SOOOOO, I'm going to Germany next week- ALREADY! I'm very excited! :) First time out of the country & it's goin take what? 6-8 hrs on the plane. Never been on a plane that long before either. Many things of first for me :p I'm so ready though :) 2 weeks will def be fun- hopefully Me & Sebastian won't kill each other from driving each other insane :/ hah. OH- well, since I'm meeting his other side of his family. He met my other side of my family this past weekend and he had fun and I'm very happy he did. I'm happy he finally got to meet them & everybody liked him- after 3 yrs. :p everyone was like wow- where has he been!? lol but anyways- I hope everything goes well the next two weeks for me :) AND moving into a new apt with my co-worker & her friend, very excited about it :) I'm happy bout movin in with new people & now my friends- this yr will def be fun & interesting :) I'm excited and its getting close. Feel like everything is moving fast & it'd def be a change for me- good changes. :) wanted spice in my life & I got it hah :D

HAPPY 4TH!

Well, its 4th of July. I made it to my friend's house and I'm staying for a few days :) I'm very excited. This yr is def different from all the other years. Which is good, I need to mix it up lol. I'm actually kind of surprised there wasn't much traffic when I came up last night. It also stormed too so maybe thats why? Idk but the important thing is that I made it in one piece and didn't get lost. Pretty good directions I suppose. Anyways, I'm not sure whats in store for today but I know tonight I'm def seeing fireworks. We might go to the waterfront or we might buy those cheap boxes from walmart. BUT either way, we'll have fun & I'm excited to be here. :)

Can't wait for next weekend when I go to PA for my family reunion :) Sebastian is finally coming up with me! YAY!

ok- I hope everyone has a great 4th of July :)

Lets see...

Well, just to catch up- I did hang out with Daughter but we didn't go to the beach like planned. It's ok though, we hung out all day & it was a lot of fun. Later on that week we got pedis :) Which was much needed. But, it was so unusual because we never hang out twice in one week. But, I loved it. I needed a "new" face to hang out with. There was a point where I got sick of ...certain people (..ok, maybe just a person). WHICH I'm excited to say, I have 2 roomies for the year! Thank you to the co-worker and her friend. I'm so excited! Talking about new faces... I move in the beginning of Aug. :) YAY! -sigh- I'm so happy I don't have to commute from Spotsy to VCU. This 4th of July is def going to be different. For one, I'm not going to the Spotsy Stars & Stripes Spectaular for fun times & fireworks. Sad, but I'm cleaning so at least I'm being productive. Get me outta this hot apt once & for all.

ok- until next time.

random stuff

I gotz no foodz in my apt. Well, cuz im lazy &/or i'm waiting for food to run out and now that it has I don't feel like getting more even though I kinda need it. I have money which is always good :) ANNNNNNND that also means I need to cash my check soon that I got from work. That'd be nice huh?!

Got paid yesterday. Its so much better than the last one. :) I kind of had a realizition this morning and it kinda sucked.

Going to VA Beach- again but this time with daughter. I went w/ Sebastian Sunday and we had lots of fun. The water was kinda cold but it was fun, jumpin over waves, reading my book, Sebas dunking me in/throwing me into the ocean- which for some reason he likes doing. So- I'm excited to go with daughter this time :) I haven't hung out with her for a long time.

Everytime I watch Phineas & Ferb- Doofenshmirtz never disappoints. He's so gullible. Idk how he doesn't see the obvious but it is a kids show and Agent P is awesome lol. -sigh-

I need to take a quick shower then later on tonight I'm seeing Joseph. YAY! I'm glad he's back in rva for a little bit. He's awesome. Anyways, my back sucks & keeps cracking in the same places & it hurts. I think I need a chiropactor. For some reason the spell check isn't telling me how to spell words right so- that why most of these things are wrong. lol oh well. i suck.

Spice Up My Life

I totally need to do something different. I pretty much can't wait to move out of Richmond this summer. Nobody is here so its boring and not a lot to do. Except work....but thats not too fun lol. I want to swim in a pool and I want to hang out with my friends back home. Seems like more there than here right now. But, I know I'll probably change my mind after a while back home.

So, today at work the power went out and I was on dishwasher duty and of course I had to stop and couldn't do much anyways. Woo, the first time during shift change and this what happens. I'm not complaining. lol I have to do my own dishes here at my apt. UGH. dishes -_- hate.

I need to work out again. This stomach isn't what I want. Yoga maybe? Maybe more Jillian Michaels kick ass workout for 30 mins? That seemed to help for awhile. Then I just stopped cuz I'm lazy. :/ No excuse I guess. Anyways, need to kick my butt into gear.

Winding Down

I feel like things are slowing down. Does that mean I'm settling already? I feel like life is in sloowww moootionnnn. I'm just goin to work sometimes its the same ol thing but then every once in a while it likes to pick up speed. I'm going to be moving out of here soon, I need an apt with a/c asap. I might move home just for the summer then move into an apt that I find hopefully in August. BUT, that won't happen unless I finally put a down payment to hold that room for me. I was feelin high hopes but then I was broken down when the guy called and told me that he's cancelling the appts cuz they were already rented or something else happened. SUCKS. I'm nervous about this semester. I'm only taking 2 classes and then going to be working part-time. I don't want to commute if it comes down to it. At least, I have people by my side. Help me get through this stupid situation thats going down. I'm glad I'm finally getting hrs in unlike 2 weeks ago where they gave me a week off and worked one day. Anyways, I realize my rambling keeps going back and forth but its kind of how my mind works. I know, weird. Anyways, I have stuff still bundled up inside me that I wanna type out but I know if I do that one person that I don't want to see it will see it and then I'll never hear the end of it cuz they'll know I'm talking about them. ...yeaaaa. Probably why I don't speak my mind much cuz I get in trouble every time I do. No lie- every freakin time.

Anyways- hope I can keep this going.

SO- nothing is going on until July. Except for my niece's recital next week.
I need to swim at a pool.
I can't wait till July :) Family reunion in PA for a weekend and then the weekend after that I'll be off to Germany & Switzerland :) I'll be gone for 2 weeks. I need it. I'm being stressed out over some things that I shouldn't be.
I feel like I can't do my own thing sometimes or else I'll be critized or made to feel bad just because I didn't do things their way. I'm sorry I made plans already cuz I have a life and you don't? Sometimes I just don't know.
OMG i was supposed to leave a long time ago....oops.

I have some things to share...

WELL, first off- I thought i had to move back home this summer (which I still might be) until I found out that I'm going back to VCU! Woo! I still have to move out of my apt- i found some cheaper apts here in Richmond. AND some of these apts have AC! Which what i'm living in doesn't have so it sucks here in the summer time. I do like it here cuz its no more than a 10 min walk to the campus but yea, other than that i dont really know too many people here- like in my building. Except for this teacher I met that lives on the first floor. I did meet a dude that lives on the same floor as me but on the other side. But anyways- I want to move. Thats what I'm trying to get at. It'd be nice to go somewhere different.

I got a job at Noodles & co in Willow Lawn. I really like the people there and its so nice, sometimes busy, but I want to be busy so I never know what time it is. Sometimes it is a surprise and like oh, its time to get off work already?! ...ok! lol I'm going to stay during the summer and going to work there Part Time during school- which will also be Part time.

I was reading Jay Asher's blog (Author of Thirteen Reasons Why) and there's news that its going to be turned into a movie. Selena Gomez as Hannah Baker (the lead role). At first, I was like well...idk. But she read the book and she talked to Jay why she loved it and interested in playing the role. First off- I'm happy she read the book. Kinda drives me crazy when I find out the actors didnt read the book that the movie was based off of. Anyways, I started thinking about it and I'm like you know, i can see her doing this role and got kinda excited. Jay is going to be in the movie process- which i'm also excited about. For example: Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist. LOVE that book. HATE that movie- drives me crazy. So many things they left out and changed and I couldnt really enjoy it cuz i criticizing it the whole movie. I still feel bad for Arielle cuz she had to deal with me talking and complaining about it. I'm sorry for that. But, I just love that book. SO, hopefully that doesn't happen with this movie. So, as long as the author is involved to make sure things go the way they're supposed to go then I'll be happy. Like for another example: Harry Potter. JK Rowling was involved and i think you can tell. Yea, some things changed but it wasn't drastic and you could still follow along, got most of the same (major) points, then your good in my book. Love the books & the movies :)

In other news- Pep Band did a recording and that was fun- you could tell people were like omg lets get this over with towards the end. But, we did good. We were there from 11:30-3:00ish. It did seem longer than that but thats how it usually goes.

ok- I think thats all I wanted to share. Hope everyone is well :) <3

New Semester

This semester kinda blows. I'm not going to school and in desperate need of a job. I really hope Barnes & Noble hires me, I love bookstores, idk why they haven't gave me a chance like every year I apply to jobs. -_- seriously. I hope they call me. BUT, other than that I applied to other jobs but more like REAL jobs. lol I tried reception, hotel, bookstores, even an advertising internship thats paid. I didn't even get that. SO annoyed. Just need a job for 8 months plus every summer after that. But noooooooo. ANYWAYS, some good news today: I'm hanging out with Ashlee love today :) I'm very excited.

Journalist

I created a tumblr to help my group for my Mass Comm class to spread the word about how some gov'ts are allowing people to beat up journalist because they're speaking their mind! ITS CRAZY! Here in the US, we are lucky and don't have to deal with this. But, sadly, most other countries do have to deal with it and this is one of the cases thats mind-blowing. I have heard of other cases where they just murder the journalist. This isn't a game! This is serious, real life is crazy sometimes. I bet you you've never heard of such a case. BUT, that's why i am here. To let you fill your brain with knowledge! :)

Here, go to tumblr: http://russianjournalist.tumblr.com/

And Facebook: Join the group and we want your input!

Please write, answer: What you would do? If you got beaten up just for speaking your mind!?

Ads

I've seen some of these ads before, some I haven't, but some of them I can't read because it's in a different language. SO, I want to show this to you guys. Its kind of jaw-dropping because they're offensive or you can't believe your eyes that they actually published 'em at one point. Ridiculous. Just sayin'.
