Me, me, me...

1. I've lost my watch! Seriously, I am very depressed by this! ;_; I was looking all over for it yesterday when I was getting ready to go grocery shopping and it was nowhere to be found. =( I have a feeling it's lost somewhere in my roommate's boyfriend's apartment because I remember taking it off and putting it in my jacket pocket when I was cooking over there, so it probably fell out and with my luck, they probably won't be able to find it. =(((( I'm so depressed at the prospect of not having a watch. =(((((( HOW WILL I SURVIVE?!



2. Last night, Tara (my roommate), Teresa (friend who lives next door), and I had an impromptu board meeting at my place (we are all officers in the same club -- sometimes it's beneficial to have most of the board live next to each other, lol). Anyway, while we were discussing cool things like where we want to have a trip and boring things like budget and prices, we also somehow got around to talking about high school. I'm not sure how it happened, but it was probably a combination of Teresa being on FB, Tara drinking wine, and me playing "emo" music, LOL. Anyway, someone brought up the question of which clique(s) we were all in. That's always an interesting question because some people change a lot from high school to college and the problem with that question is that people tend to make assumptions about you based on cliques, obviously.
   
   Anyway, Tara was apparently a giant clique jumper, from prissy princess to goth to emo to what she is now. It's kind of funny because I wouldn't have expected any of that from her (which, hi, back to my assumptions point, lol). And Teresa was basically a mean girl, lol, which I actually did expect because she kind of seems like the type. (No offense, I totally hung out with the mean girls type back in middle school, but yeah, she totally has that personality to be one.) And I guess I was an ROTC freak because that's basically the group I hung out with. I guess the difference is that my school wasn't very clique-y and their schools were. I mean, there were obviously cliques, but I've never really experienced anything on the level of the cliques you see on TV's version of HS, so I guess I never really understand the concept of a clique defining you and your friends. But yeah, I just get annoyed when people automatically assume something about me just because of the whole ROTC thing (not that it's specifically directed at them, but just people in general who I've mentioned the whole ROTC thing to). I mean, I know that when I talk about high school, ROTC was a major part of my HS experience, but questioning my abilities to take charge and stuff like that just because I'm generally a quiet person is not really my idea of having fun reminiscing about HS. Seriously, it's like a backhanded compliment kind of thing -- that I'm really nice and quiet, therefore it's so amazing that I could hold a high ranking position being and be able to command other people. It's like, F U, don't give me that shit! (Only I can't bring myself to say it because I try and avoid confrontation, but I'm thinking it!) Yeah, I dunno, I just wanted to vent a little because it really annoys me and it's not like ROTC is just this specific type of military-ish people or whatever -- it's pretty diverse!



3. Another thing that happened later on last night was that Moleskines came up, probably because Tara whipped out hers to work on something and yeah, no offense to people who like/use Moleskines, but I'm one of those Moleskine haters (just like how I'm kind of an Apple hater -- whatever, I don't care what you say, I probably will not agree with your Apple love). Anyway, Tara said someone bought it for her the first time I saw it and made fun of her for it and then we were talking about some people in our major and like, I totally said that "People who use Moleskines are pretentious" and today, I saw on FB that she totally posted on her status that she Just got called pretentious for owning a Moleskine. =/ and she totally added that =/ face there at the end, as if she cared! (She is kind of a Moleskine hater too, don't let that meeh face fool you! And also, OMG, why start that drama?!) And when I talked to her earlier, she said that a lot of people actually commented on it when she checked in the morning (because, like, half of the people we know have them), but that they deleted their comments before she could see them, which just makes me laugh because now I'm totally wondering what people actually said to that. XP



4. Lastly, I'm gonna do that whole 30 Days Meme because I can. XP So here goes...
   
   ( Day 01 - Introduction )

Yeah, I really need to stop procrastinating and figure out what I'm gonna do for the Abstract Show... It will most likely NOT be abstract, but whatever.

Me, me, me...

Some happy-making things, lol.

So today was not really a good day for me (even though it started out pretty okay in the beginning), so I would just like to talk about some things that made today better, in between all the bullshit.

1. The most epic and hilarious conversation ever in which four guys in my studio and Tara were kind of in a semi-circle in front of my desk area talking and then Tara brought up her FB status (the Just got called pretentious for owning a Moleskine. =/ one that I mentioned earlier) and they all got SUPER OFFENDED and I couldn't help LAUGHING MY ASS OFF. Like, seriously, the look on their faces were absolutely PRICELESS and I was in the perfect position to see them all when Tara brought it up and I was laughing so hard! XP Because obviously all four of the boys and Tara own Moleskines and Tara was totally acting like she was offended with them and seriously, what else was I suppose to do?! I mean, I was the one who made that pretentious comment in the first place (even though they don't know it), so you can't expect me to do anything else but find it super amusing. XP Anyway, they were all talking and being super pissy about being called pretentious and then they decided to look up pretentious on wiki and they were reading the wiki page out loud and I was just trying not to laugh the whole time. XP Also, Tara just told me that when her and one of the guys were walking to get food (after that conversation up there), all he could talk about with her was the whole pretentious thing and apparently he was just super offended and bristling about it for that whole 20 minutes they were gone. Seriously, most entertaining five-ish minutes ever. ♥ (Is it wrong that I am amused by how much hostility there was by my semi-anonymous comment?)



2. Having a ridiculously nostalgia conversation about anime with Tara while we were eating dinner. Like, somehow it came up (I don't remember how), and she wasn't a giant nerd like me, but she was like, "Oh, I was really into this one show! I can't remember the name!" and we had an epic five minutes trying to figure it out because she couldn't remember anything about the show except spikey hair, which, hello, almost everything, and I was trying to guess by just throwing a bunch of titles at her and she was trying to google it by typing in anime and looking through images for the main character, LOLOL. Anyway, obviously I totally failed because when she finally found a picture, it ended up being Dragon Ball Z, which totally did not cross my mind. XP But yeah, anime! There was a point back in the day when I was really into it! (I mean, obviously, have you see my LJ name?) But now, not so much -- it's been forever since I've even watched any anime! So sad -- I definitely feel nostalgic sometimes. Also, I really want to change my name to remula, but it's been taken forever. I'm just waiting for the day it gets purged (which, with my luck, will probably be never) or maybe I should just change my name to wazokana. IDK, someday when I have money, lol.



3. This post by disarm_d because that interview is still amazing and I still love bb!Panic so much! ♥ Like, they are just so adorable, especially the whole Guitar Hero ~drama~ and Brendon petting Ryan's hair at the base of his neck and seriously, they were so ridiculous. ♥♥♥
