damn you caffeine

There have been complaints about the scarcity of updates, which is such a good thing. People love us, Michelle! They really love us. I blame this lack of blogging on the black hole of torture that was this past semester. Thankfully, grades are in, I did satisfactorally (def just made up that word--call the patent lawyers), so the semester is completely and oh so officially in my past; therefore, I have no excuses to not blog. Also, I had my first entire cup of coffee for a long long time about 2 hours ago, so I'm wired and ready to ramble. Sad story is that I desperately needed that cup of coffee to stay awake for the entire Avatar movie, which was 3 hours long and started at 9:40pm--or I thought I needed it. My heartrate was so high the entire time that I might as well have been doing a workout (secret training, bitches). So I had no problem staying awake, and the only thing the coffee did for me was make me have to go pee every 30 min. I felt like such an old woman, which sucked because the movie was just so fantastic, amazing, extraordinary, mind blowing, and every other synonym for awesome, and I just didn't want to miss a second. Never again will I sneak coffee into a movie theater, no matter how ingenious my sneakery might be.

Did I mention how incredible avatar is? I'm pretty sure I hate humans and earth and money now. Too bad I actually don't hate humans and earth and money. I felt like such a loser driving my gas guzzling yuk home from the movie theater, listening to Ke$ha sing about P. Diddy and pedicures and being crunk, all of which are things I love (well, I only love P. Diddy a lil bit). Maybe someday, probs in 2012, I'll get swept off to another planet that looks as though a giant black light is hanging out in the atmosphere by a buff, sexy, blue alien. Hopefully these aliens won't have such long hair, because lbh that hair was a bit creepy. We can live happily ever after without global warming or politics, and maybe I'll be smart like Sigourney Weaver because of my Bowdoin degree and I can learn about trees and such (and those crazy bugs that spin around. Who thought of all those weird animals anyway? I really really seriously want to meet that person because he/she must have the biggest baller imagination ever). Too bad this whole runaway to another sweet ass planet won't actually happen. Depressing. Let's discuss something that is actually logical, plausible, and completely realistic...like how fabulous the bag burger I ate yesterday was. It was even great when it sat like a brick in my stomach while I ripped up a 5k classic race. Needless to say, I've learned from all these pre-season races what NOT to do before my actual races.

Also plausible and realistic: Jason Bourne. I watched Bourne Ultimatum last night. Another awesome movie, and not just because Matt Damon is a hottie with a naughty body. It's also the violence and the car chases and the violence that makes this movie awesome. I also like that Matt Damon hardly talks in this movie. I find these stunning men even more stunning when they don't say anything. Maybe it's just because I'm so antisocial, I just like to sit and stare at my men. No talking. It's annoying. Ok, so I'm not that antisocial, but I do love that he busts chaps all over in silence. Violence is the answer, you know, silent violence. But don't tell my alien boyfriend that, or that I'm cheating on him with Matt Damon. He might just send his fire bird after me. Kinda like the phoenix in Harry Potter. So many movie references with so many hotties (yes I was in love with Daniel Radcliffe in like 6th grade), it's just so overwhelming. While I'm at it, let me just throw out Star Trek: Chris Pine is oh so fine.


And with that, I'm off to bed. If the caffeine will allow me... PEACE

PS Alabama won the BCS. awesome.

SuckyShittyEWW

This is such a shitty week. First of all, Maine people effing suck. For realz, people can marry whoever they want. Don't people realize the gender divide they are making? This is a huge political step back. Look at feminism and women's rights--it's no different really. People, you are actually discriminating against genitalia, because honestly, there is no other difference between heterosexual couples and homosexual couples. Love is love.

For less drastic shittyness...the Yankees won the World Series. Can you say lame? They've won, what, 28 world series now? yeah, lame. Don't worry Phillies, there's always next year. Let's pwn those yanks sorry asses. Also, school pretty much sucks right now. I just got a 68 on my orgo exam. What I'm actually angry about though is that the average was a 72, and there was NO SCALE! wtf. It was probably the hardest test I've ever taken. It was suppose to be an hour exam. Yeah, definitely took me 3 hrs to do and 75% of the class was still taking it when I left. Exam fail. And some dbag got a 98. All I have to say to you, Mr/Mrs Annonymous Crazy Person is get a life. Jeff informed me last night that there is actually a word for people like this in France--geteliffe, which translates into loser. I bet they voted yes on 1.

Alright sorry to the person who got a 98. I didn't mean to go so irritable on you. It's just been one of those weeks. On the brighter side, it snowed today! That made everything seem ok, because that means it's almost ski season. That means no more rollerskiing, lots and lots of bag burgers, Canada, Christmas, and the seasonal pilgrimages to my sacred home--SUGARLOAF. Oh the spiritual liberation from this abyss of work work work, stress, work, freakout, overexhaustion. And the light at the end of the tunnel appears. Thank the Lord.


Let's just look at the gloriousness

Once upon a time, there was a lovely city called Huntsville. Shit goes down there

Now that my midterms are over, I can give you all (nate) the LD on the past 22 days. 22 days sounds like not a lot, but let me tell you, whoa boy, a shit ton happened. a. shit. ton. To make this story really interesting and minimally mentally stimulating (much needed, fo sho), let's make this post a reverse chronological order picture book!

Phillies are in the world series! Again! also, Matt Stairs, an oh so important pinch hitter is my neighbor. nbd
I probably failed my organic chemistry mid term because I did not read this book



I got 32 on my music assignment. 32 out of 100.


I started my bfflz relationship with my new assistant coach, Timtim on a little island better known as Vinal Haven. Less known as little island


Michelle and I became astronauts. Nasa for the win bitches!



Elizabeth got married and we got crunk.

WE LOVE HUNTSVILLE!

OMG nightmare

Why do odwalla's have so many calories in them? I mean, if I want a smoothie-like drink that is healthy and isn't actually a smoothie, then there had better be some lacking in the calorie department to make up for imposterism. Talk about annoying.

What is also annoying is the week before fall break. And by annoying I mean torture, like jabbing bamboo in your fingernail beds and twisting it over and over and over while simultaneously shining super bright lights in both your eyes kind of torture. My stress level is skyrocketing and it's starting to really negatively affect my sleeping patterns, aka I'm having horrible nightmares. Last night, I had this dream where my friend Erin and I were staying at my camp alone. We were both in my twin bed discussing how much boys suck and how we are going to find wonderful, charming young men when we go abroad. Sometime during this discussion, I fall out of my bed, because it is after all not really suited for two people (unless the two people are me and Michelle. We totally own that twinage). Well, once I hit the floor, I noticed an arm sticking out from under my bed. Instead of having a complete freak out like I would in real life, I became all concerned. I drug out the large, 20ish year old guy that looks like this ginger that I see around campus, and I kept asking him "omg are you ok?" He just looked at me all dazed and confused and didn't say anything, but I kept asking if he was ok. Then as this one sided discussion continued, I looked over on the other side of my bed (which is nonexistent in real life btdubz...there's a wall there) and I saw a cloaked figure sitting in a chair with two green glowing eyes peering out from under the hood. Clearly the scary figure planted this dazed young man under my bed so he could stealthily position himself on the chair without me noticing...even though Erin would probably notice...oh well. Anyway, the cloaked figure stood up and took his hood off, revealing his big-bad-wolf self. Doesn't sound scary, but oh it is. It really is. He then took this young man's head and ripped it off with his teeth. Of course, he was of larger stature so the head didn't come off right away: there was a slow, gradual breaking of skin and veins and esophagus and trachea. Graphic, I know, but after all the autopsies this summer, I obvs wasn't that fazed. After discarding the body on my floor, the wolf was going to eat us next, after spitting out a tooth that came out after the head ripping. I was excited because I assumed he wouldn't eat us after loosing a tooth, I mean that hurts like a mofo, but no, he was still going to eat us. I think I asked him that too...So Erin took an empty glass handle--where it came from? I don't know--and smashed out the rest of his teeth. Of course that didn't stop him, he was still coming after us to rip our heads up too! So I took handle #2 and bashed out his head...except for his mouth, because his broken toothed mouth was still coming after us to eat us. At this point I figured I had time to run to the kitchen to grab a knife and stab him in the heart, assuming that this wasn't one of those special dream monsters that doesn't die normal deaths. Then I woke up in a freak out moment, like I always do after nightmares, realized it wasn't real, then also realized that as soon as I went back to bed I'd just go back to Mr. Wolf. Annoyed, I wiped my face on my pillow, almost dislodging my nose-ring, which hurt like a mofo--like losing a tooth then eating humans. So I decided to just go back to bed. This time I dreamed about pirate things. Not too shabby I'd say. Pirates are sweet.
