I've been away for a while.

today I read something and I was EVERYONE to read it, please!?

The Night Could just Bend on Forever by ampersands

It's just a beautiful story to read in all ways.

humph.

( my opinions, you totally care )


Whatever, I also love when random people decide to comment on things that they had NOTHING to do with... making it look like an attention grab, hooray for insignificance!

There is no winning sometimes.

wow, now it's time to talk about my amazing life and all the fun things I do! I went to MUDFEST this weekend, it was basically a weekend of far to much alcohol and far to many foreigners. I sometimes am just icked out at how ridiculous foreigners (myself included) can act at times, being away from home makes the obnoxious even MORE obnoxious because they have no one around that can hold them at all accountable. I had fun with my friends and that's all I care about.

my mudding outfit was fantastic: I look good
one or two pictures from last year... it's fun to get MUDDY!

Don't even reply this webite is GOLDEN.

Marty,

I'm sorry, I must have misread your ad. I could have sworn it said "will be willing to deliver it up to 25 miles for a small fee." Am I crazy, or did your ad say that?

I don't recall it saying "will be willing to deliver it as long as your building isn't too big and scary for my weak little body to carry it."

I love the world.

It's like saving up a bunch of chocolate and then GORGING (which is actually a bad habit of mine that I think is not healthy at all).

The last few days have been nothing of interest, I booked my ticket HOME!!!! This is CRAZY exciting... it's the end folks, soon I'll be back in canada doing nothing... working on my hobo walk. I AM VERY EXCITED!! Emily and I are doing a month-long stop in vancouver to do some touring around, hopefully visiting some family and friends and just getting CRAZY! I am a little sad that I won't be back at 'home' until October, but whatever... VANCOUVER!

I think korea is trying to make me stay though, they have the most AMAZING programing on this summer it's like they have a fangirl choosing all the shows.
10pm: season two of supernatural
11pm: Season ONE of GILMORE GIRLS!!!

They have been playing random seasons of supernatural all over the place... it's kind of wonderful.

I have been feeling like a gross pig lately so I cleaned my apartment last night, it was AMAZING, a clean house is SUCH a good feeling. I organized my closet, went through ALL of my cards and letters, and got rid of a bunch of junk. I went to bed feeling super satisfied with myself, but then I was about 2/3rds asleep and a gigantic EARWIG crawled up my arm!!! I freaked my shit out and could not go back to sleep.

OH and there is a boy that I'm crazy over, but he's slightly disinterested... BUT he's a good friend, and that is never a bad thing.

Happy canadia day to all my crazy canucks.

I spent the entire day swimming at this random outdoor pool in seoul, it was AMAZING! Just sunshine, soju, friends, hot dogs, swimming caps (which are apparently completely the LAW in public pools out here), and SWIMMING!! I was sunburnt and exhausted after we ate pizza in the park, so I was a responsible human being and decided to leave around midnight because I had many things to do the next day...

turns out the guy I wanted to see and hang out with just happened to be out at the VERY bar I was supposed to go too! I swear, I make stupid choices. Ah well, at least I'm well rested now.

It's all good! happy weekend ya'll.

I just fucking love ALL Of you guys.

I love it when you bitch, I love it when you LOVE, I love it when you write things: funny or RIP YOUR HEART OUT and STOMP ON IT good... I just think you are all fabulous, and you made my day go from SHITTY to wonderful.

Sometimes I listen to Muse and am just BLOWN away at how powerful his voice is. It's not like I'm a crazy-huge-fan, but he has PIPES and that makes me stand back with smug appreciation.

What is with all these young children buying homes? I have three friends that have decided that home ownership is possible at the age of 22! I can barely keep up with my student loan payments and I'm 24... hooray for underachievement.

I'm going to see transformers tonight. I'm kind of excited for SHIA and his pretty eyes and stammering, I love stammering.

LAST NIGHT I went to see The Brothers Bloom. I HIGHLY recommend this movie, I thought it was well done on all fronts.

I have nothing to say. I've been SO BORED lately, I don't have work to do at work... so I'm just reading big bangs and creeping around facebook. It's a sad existence.

OH I decided to go to school. I figured it's never a bad thing to get further qualified for a job. I'm nervous for a lot of it; I don't like the idea of going back to the school I already graduated from, but I know it's a good program and I'm going to learn lots.

NOW I just need to nut up and pay the registration and set up a course-picking appointment.

things like this just make me CRY.

I think that liking someone and KNOWING they don't like you is one of the weirdest/worst feelings. It's odd because you can't be angry at them for their disinterest, it's not as if they intentionally lied to you or hurt you in some way. I just end up internalizing all the bad feelings I have for myself which is ridiculous and slightly destructive.

SO that's how I'm feeling today.

I feel bad for nice boys sometimes, they don't realize that girls like me (ones that don't get a lot of attention from men) take the little gestures a little too seriously. I feel slightly foolish.

I had a pretty good weekend, I've decided that drinking makes me TOO HONEST. My friend emily (the one that I watch supernatural with) confided in my that she's started reading FIC!! ahahah, she only likes HET though... so I'm trying to round up some good ones for her. I'm hoping she'll eventually realize the glorious-ness of slash, but for now I'm just happy to have someone to go fancrazy in REAL LIFE!

my life is Dancing Queen.

HONESTLY. I am such a drama queen about things, I take little good things and only see the HORRIFIC THINGS THAT HAVE A VERY SMALL CHANCE OF ACTUALLY HAPPENING.

for example: I GOT INTO THE EDUCATION PROGRAM THAT I APPLIED TOO!! hooray right? BUT now all I'm thinking is "oh gosh, what if I hate teaching... what if the students hate me? what if I flunk out? I'm horrible at school!!! How on earth will I survive 4 more semesters of CONSTANTLY being watched and evaluated???

Can someone please just tell me exactly what to do?

thank you!

seriously... was there a meeting where-in practically ALL of my favorite authors decided to post within a WEEK... I have a job! I have a life! I am SO BEHIND.

I am angry.

Seriously, I'm seeing all these and I just want to print them out, walk to the park... and READ READ READ... you guys are my favorites.

p.s. the interview went WELL! We talked about books that I recommended for about 10 minutes... and he was like "ooh, these sound awesome, I'm making a list!" and he asked some pretty interesting questions about korea, and progressive education and A.S. Neill (because I quoted him in my admissions essay) John Dewey, and John Taylor Gatto. I don't know if I'll get in or not, but I'm glad I was coherent and not completely ridiculous.

"No one is wise enough or good enough to mould the character of any child. What is wrong with our sick, neurotic world is that we have been moulded, and an adult generation that has seen two great wars and seems about to launch a third should not be trusted to mould the character of a rat" - A.S. Neill

the quote I used in reference to the question "what is our responsibilty as teachers? What do we bring into our students lives beyond just knowledge and skill?"

I feel like writing cliches:

"whats happening my babies? long timey no postey!" (that is my pauly shore impression, I think it needs to be in person to really translate well).

I have been a very busy person lately, I actually HAVE AN INTERVIEW FOR TEACHERS COLLEGE THIS EVENING!!!! woo, I am crazy crazy nervous. It's a phone interview, but I'm doing it over skype because my cell phone is SHITEOUS, and I just hope they don't want to do video... because my apartment is one of those one room bachelor apartments and it would feel awkward to be interviewing for school from my bedroom.

As for the men, I had mentioned that there was a guy that I liked and I honestly felt like he was showing some interest... but he's not, and it's okay! We are in the friends zone and I am okay with that (a little sad, but okay).

I just judged a "english speech contest"

One of the 5th grade contestants ended with this:

"In researching Italy I found out SO MUCH information... but I only have 3 minutes! Here is my phone number (in huge letters behind his head), please feel free to call any time day or night..." and then he winked.

I think I'm in love.

Some friends went on a trip out east... They saw this sign.



Canadians are so funny.

SPOILERS



ugh. I feel about singers the way robin feels about hockey players... "missing their teeth? I'm missing my pants"... my pants are often lost because of good singing.

saw Terminator this weekend. It was loud... and good.

( I liked )


( I did not like )

and now: SYTYCD.

THIS movie looks SO GOOD.

synopsis

This funny and heartfelt film follows the journey of an expectant couple (John Krasinski [“The Office’] and Maya Rudolph [“Saturday Night Live’]), as they travel the U.S. in search of the perfect place to put down roots and raise their family. Along the way, they have misadventures and find fresh connections with an assortment of relatives and old friends who just might help them discover “home” on their own terms for the first time.

I kind of really really want to see it right now.

THIS review of Glee is what made me watch it.

excerpt

And as for the new Fox show, “Glee”?

How many ways can I say it, folks: Gay.

And thank the Gay Baby Jesus for it. In a network environment that shits out procedurals and lawyers shows like it’s been eating cops on the cob for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, it’s refreshing to finally watch a show infused with a little gay. Sure, you may find a few shows on network TV with gay characters, but there aren’t any shows on NBC, Fox, CBS, or ABC that are actually gay. It’s a shame, too. Because the world needs more gay, goddamnit. We should all own our gay.

Read it; it's wonderful.

ALSO, does anyone know where people are getting excited for this?
