i got a livejournal. i'll miss this place.

here i am, back to my ann arbor hours.
--for old times' sake:
the friday five

1. What drinking water do you prefer -- tap, bottle, purifier, etc.?
bottle, i suppose. anything that is cold and refreshing, really.

2. What are your favorite flavor of chips?
original pringles.

3. Of all the things you can cook, what dish do you like the most?
i make good bread pudding.

4. How do you have your eggs?
not really an eggs fan, but when i forget that i don't like eggs, i have them hard-boiled and eat them with a spoon and a salt shaker.

5. Who was the last person who cooked you a meal? How did it turn out?
my dad made me fish sticks and curly fries tonight. they were good, but a bit too filling.

postings are few and far between.
my birthday is fast approaching..."the big 1-8." still settling back into the work lifestyle. hope to hit up a few garage sales tomorrow if proex doesn't want me.

haven't posted in a looooong time.
cleaning the new room very very thoroughly.
waking up and missing the morning entirely.
procrastinating with the job search, dreading another summer at tj maxx.
eating less.
trying to avoid the soccer moms.
wishing i were having as much fun as you, and simultantously reminding myself that others have it worse.

"i often wonder whatever happened to that little girl i used to know."
maybe she's back.

i do.

what decade does your personality live in?


quiz brought to you by lady interference, ltd

sometimes it seems the end can't come soon enough.

not so much friday, as it is five.

the friday five

1. Who is your favorite celebrity?
umm. christina ricci. rachel griffiths. courtney love. mr rogers. isaac mizrahi. conan o'brien. the cusacks. probably more.

2. Who is your least favorite?
teen pop stars. the cast of the real world. people that make you wonder why they are famous.

3. Have you ever met or seen any celebrities in real life?
james taylor. the kid who played the youngest brady son in the movies. roz abrams.

4. Would you want to be famous? Why or why not?
it's cool to be acknowledged, but given the option, i would rather be rich and unrecognizable.

5. If you had to trade places with a celebrity for a day, who would you choose and why?
julia stiles. it'd be cool to get into an ivy league school just because i was famous. plus, i would get to live in nyc.

i had a dream last night about the end-of-the-year surprises from our RAs. guess what i just got.

i've gotten a lot done in the 9.5 hours i've been awake. too bad i am a little tired now.

ps. i don't like what you did to my pants, freddy krueger.

i knew i was arial! (but i secretly wanted something more exotic)

Arial - You're pretty normal. That's certainly not
a bad thing, as a lot of people like you.

so right now i am addicted to www.hotornot.com. i went through the same phase 2 years ago, just because i always like to see what picture will come up next. i give most people 5s (some as a favor and some because they are too stereotypically hot). korinne and i have decided that it is easier to be an ugly guy than an ugly girl and www.hotornot.com is proof. for my friends out there interested in attaining high marks in the online rating category, i have some tips for scoring with the judges.
guys:
-don't wear a shirt. no matter what your body type, guys with no shirts get high points.
-if you decide to wear a shirt, make sure there is something funny about beer or sex written on it. now that's hot.
-show them your serious and your playful sides.
-pose with your kids. ladies love a family man.
-black and white photos show how artsy you can be.
-photoshop is hot.
-really creepy guys: also hot.
-and most importantly, don't mask the real you.
-basically, boys, don't put any effort into this. you can even submit a picture where your friends are much hotter than you, and still do well. and if you do decide to make an effort, you will also do well. nobody loses in this situation. well, almost nobody.
this brings me to

girls:
-make sure you are a model. or at least pay someone a lot of money to take pictures that are of modeling quality.
-don't pose with your friends. whether they are cuter than you, or not cute at all, you lose.
-don't pose with your kids, either. teenage moms are not hot.
-send in a blurry picture.
-never look as if you are thinking. i think we all know girls that think are not hot.
-wearing glasses is asking for a 5.1 or lower. say it girls, "ac-u-vue." unless they are sunglasses, because those are definitely hot.
-make yourself as little like your childhood photos as possible. nobody likes brown hair and bushy eyebrows, do they?
-much like the guys, you can be of any age. you will still somehow get higher points than the asians.
-the most important rule for the ladies is this: be trashy. really, really trashy.

lather, rinse, and repeat as necessary.

with my next final on wednesday, i have free time coming out the wazoo.

you are Haribo Gold-Bears!
**GUMMY BEARS! my favorite
