Reminder

Ok, Serisouly.

GOODBYE CHEWING MY CUTICLES.

This is getting ridiculous. I mean, it's been a bad habit of mine for years, and they are all dry and peely. MUST.STOP.NOW.

Any tips?



(In other news, my mother wants to get another dog. I'd like the record to show that we already have five dogs. One of them is just under a year old, and needs a playmate. The other dogs are too old and the puppy is too wild. So my mom thinks it's a good idea to get a sixth, that will hopefully keep the puppy occupied... That or team up with the puppy in terrorizing the other dogs. I cannot decide if she is a lunatic or if she is being logical. Or maybe she's both. The jury is still out.)

Goodbye List

Well, after a post on Jezebel, where some fellow commentors and I shared our blogs with one another, I realized that I've left this thing idle for far too long. This is supposed to be about Self Discovery, and Self Improvement (or something...)

So I am finally feeling motivated and inspired to do a task from LTLYM (motivation from procrastination is always most productive). I'm doing #70, which is a goodbye list. It's supposed to be a simple list. And with the end of this semester looming (hello 8am exams tomorrow morning, and then again on tuesday) I feel like I need a new start, a new reminder of all the things I hope to accomplish, stop doing, and change about myself. This may end up being ongoing, as I remind myself of more things I need to say goodbye to as time goes on. But enough talk, let's get to it.


1. Goodbye chewing my cuticles.
2. Goodbye stress eating.
3. Goodbye Dad.
4. Goodbye useless spending.
5. Goodbye lonliness.
6. Goodbye never feeling good enough.
7. Goodbye stupid neighbor. (seriously fuck off, and move out already)
8. Goodbye searching for something, and having it be just out of reach.

Alright, well, before I start getting all weird and teary. Also, I have procrastinated enough. I am probably going to pull an all-nighter to get through all this Statistics garbage I need to know. Blarg.

I am.... CREEPZILLA

I know this isn't a task from the LTLYM page, but that's not the only thing I think about, people! Here's some variety (or something?)!!!

Firstly, facebook has turned me into an ultimate creepster. As I typed this, I actually remembered this guy whose page I lurk on occasionally, and made a mental note to see if he has any new pictures on his page (note: we are not facebook friends. I think this makes me creepier). Apparently this isn't just a personal phenomenon either. I know a shitload of people that are just as creepy as I am, if not moreso.

I don't really want to get into the whole "What does this mean for society and future generations?" debate, though as a sociology major, it is definitely a topic that is running around in my brain. I just wanted to note, for my own good, that I am creepy. That facebook effects my social life just as much as it effects everyone else's. And. AND! I know that I'm not the first, only, or last person to question Facebook, but I don't want to be too vocal. What if The Facebook hears me? I don't need a price on my head, ok? I am just a lowly college student! I also hear dissing facebook is Communist. Just sayin'

Another creepy thing, is that lights go off around me an inordinate amount. Like street lights, garage lights, public bathroom lights. Maybe I just notice it more, but it really creeps me out. I feel like it happens to me more often than it happens to other people. Maybe I'm crazy. Maybe other people just don't notice if a silly light goes out around them. But I notice. And it weirds me out. It happened (again) tonight, and I decided to try to remember to document when this happens, and also document what I was thinking about (not that there's a connection, but maybe there is!) So it happened at 8:57 tonight, and I was thinking about the boy I currently have a little crush on (Why yes, I will end my sentences with prepositions. Thank you for asking.) And now the street light turning off randomly around me has been noted.

And that will be all the creepiness for the night. I will keep you, the riveted reader, updated on the levels of creepiness I achieve in my every day life.

I think this picture sums up the creepiness of the post:

Beginnings

Alright. I've caved and started a blog. Yeah yeah, I know, 10 years after the fad began I am actually doing this. Whatever.

So, a little bit about myself? I'm a college student and will be graduating in about a year. I'm majoring in Sociology, minoring in Business. It makes me uncomfortable to start so many sentences with "I".

To copy from my facebook, my interests are: animals, antiques, records, books, tattoos, art, photography, road trips, the moon, the Dead Sea, green eyes, Scrabble, words, sights, Portland, Spurs Basketball, Banksy, and my 5 crazy lovely dogs.

So, my reason for starting this blog is self indulgent in nature. I plan on completing most or all of the assingments on Learning To Love You More. I hope to post a couple times a month, with the outcome of the assignment I complete. I am going to start with #5, because I don't have the time or money for 1-4 (yet!).

Also making an appearance on this blog will be music discoveries, art stuffs, and random pictures and finds .

Alrighty, you'll be hearing from me soon, hopefully!!
