The new Lily Allen album is very cute. I like it a lot.
I like this cute thing a lot too:
I'm working on a rhetorical analysis. It is the best way to suck the fun out of reading anything.

I am no longer a teenager. It feels good.
I had a fun birthday. Good friends, good sushi, good alcohol.
This weekend, Jeramey is taking me to New Orleans to see Andrew Bird, as well as some other stuff. I know I want to see the New Orleans Museum of Art as well as the Voodoo Museum. Does anyone have any other suggestions for activities (aside from the zoo and aquarium and all that obvious stuff)? We're also staying in the Monteleon. Maybe I'll see a ghost! |

So, my internet quit working Friday afternoon, and remained inaccessible all weekend. I put in a work report in my dorm, and they sent me an email telling me that it was shut off because of illegal downloading activity. It was no big deal to get it fixed. All I had to do was sign a paper saying I'd delete what I had downloaded and that I'd never do it again. I asked them what it was they had flagged on me, and it was actually Lions Gate films that had emailed them a notification. So just as a warning, do not download Lions Gate films and know that LSU is a big group of pussies who release their students' info out to the authorities. I know downloading is wrong, and I am definitely going to be more careful about it in the future, but having no internet was not worth downloading Repo! the Genetic Opera.
I also wanna know if I can still download certain types of torrents, or if anybody can track anything. Someone told me I can change a setting to filter out evil seeds, but I have still yet to figure that out. I downloaded three complete seasons of The IT Crowd on my roommate's port over the weekend, and nothing was shut down on her end.
So, let this be a warning. I thought I'd never get caught, but apparently they're out for the blood of college students who are stuck living in dorms. |

I needed it...so I could be industrious during finals week. It's pretty sore, so I have to learn how to stay asleep on my left side. They gave me a super long bar. I'm going to exchange it for a smaller one when it heals.
Only five more days til a 4.0 for 17 hours and a month in Mobile.
I need a holiday job that doesn't make me want to die. Any suggestions?
How is everyone? Please, do tell.

I have caught a profoundly severe cold. Hates it.
However, I managed finish my first critical response paper for my 20th century art class. I wrote about Gauguin's quest for paradise in primitivism. It's pretty deep.
I'm lonely and my room is really cold! |

The hurricane was no fun. We lost power for about 22 hours. I was stuck in my room all by myself all day and night. The LSU Campus is probably the only place in Baton Rouge (besides hospitals and water treatment facilities) that has power. My friend Joe drove me around the Garden District this morning to check out the damage. Baton Rouge is pretty fucked up. We saw huge live oaks on top of many houses, cars, and roads. It's probably gonna take awhile to clean up all the mess. Sheesh. |

No power, my phone has no reception, my window screen was blown away, the top of my window is leaking and making an awful dripping noise into my trashcan, my laptop is about to die, I just finished a book that wasn't even that good. I want some hot soup and somebody to hang out with me.

Hype and hurricanes, gah.
I wasn't really worried about the impending hurricane. My plan was to ride the whole thing out in my dorm room. Everyone around me seems to be really over-reacting. However, today my inbox was bombarded with emails from LSU about a Medical Emergency Center being set up in the Conference Center, massive power outtages, and emergency protocol. So, maybe I'm under-reacting. I'm not worried about my personal safety, since this dorm is a solid jail, but I'd rather not have to deal with my car being destroyed by a tree or flooding, or sitting in the heat all week with no power. Three of my friends here offered to let me ride with them to their more Northwesterly homes in Texas and upper Louisiana, but I declined. I don't know if I should try to head east before traffic gets horrible (even though traffic will definitely be a huge hurdle in leaving and getting back into Baton Rouge), or go west, or stay here. I'm really just hoping Gustav calms himself down and spares us some destruction.
Can anyone offer me some advice?

Somehow I didn't know that Murder By Death released a new album.
Somehow a few of the songs on the album sound like bastard copies of some of their older songs, which sounded like bastard copies of Johnny Cash and Nick Cave songs anyway.
Somehow I'm not surprised,
I've begun a job search in Baton Rouge. Shit sucks.
Someone explain to me why a Biology lab which is only worth TWO credit hours requires an hour of lecture and then three hours of lab-time PER WEEK! That's totally not fair at all. I quit.

Fuck all my friends.
I've always done you right, and now you only call when you need me to do something for you.
"Hopefully I'll see you around soon, and thanks for your help"
I feel like I'm completely losing it, but no one seems to really give a fuck when I need someone to.
I'll get used to it, don't worry. It's not your fucking problem.
Fuck you. |

Eastern Europeans do it the best in my opinion. |

Bah.
Kind of been super blah-not-happy-with-my-current-situation-y for the past couple weeks.
My people have been letting me down.
The ways in which I fill the time in my days have been extremely disappointing.
I feel like I'm losing my momentum.
I'm trying to stay positive though. |

Jekyll is a good show.
The new Sigur Ros is good too, from what I've heard.
I became irate today for a short period of time. I rarely ever get angry, but it's really not pretty when I do. I had quite episode after I hung up the phone, and both of my parents immediately came into my room to see what was wrong. Luckily, I was able to pump some monsta-jamz on the way to my encounter with the person who made me extremely angry, and was cool-headed for the most part when I arrived. The misunderstanding was understood by the other party, (becauseIalreadyknewwhattheproblemwassinceI'mnotabrain-deadbucketofmud,unlikesaidperson) the argument was appeased (withabottleofFrenchmerlot[Fo' FREE!]), and I went on my way feeling extremely relaxed. I think I just needed to get really angry so I could feel really well.
I can already feel the summer getting away from me.
Grr. |

You've always been the one to light up the television screen.
You've always been the only thing I loved about the E! channel (besides THS Investigates: Spring Break Nightmares).
You've always been the only one to make me smile while discussing serious reality TV show news.
You've always been in my heart...

I cannot sleep. I have shooting pains in my legs from working 9 hours straight waiting all the tables in the restaurant by myself, in crappy shoes without support made even worse by the fact that some idiot didn't mop properly, so the floor was ridiculously slippery with this gooey film and I had to walk like I penguin. I fucking hate that place. Someone named Ali Fakhry is getting a piece of my mind this afternoon. |

Two finals down, two to go. Two guaranteed A's, two borderline A's. Mobile in two days!
Our room is almost empty. Ali's leaving this afternoon. It's pretty sad. I gotta spend my last night alone...or do I? |
