stuff white people like

Stuff White People Like finally came in the mail! I started reading it tonight at work and it's hilarious! I lol'd many times on my break.. so much that I was probably freaking out the old guy in the booth next to mine. He kept turning around to give me questioning looks. I really like #9: Having Black Friends. Here's a little bit from that section:

"The most important role that black friends can play in white culture is that they can be used as physical evidence that white people are not racist. Did you know that if you are able to acquire a friends of every race then you are officially designated as the least racist person on earth? Though this is impossible, white people treat it the same way that Buddhists view enlightenment - unattainable, but with great virtue in the attempt."

Bahahaha. It just cracks me up. A lot. :) My only complaint about the book is my fault. I bought it used from Amazon and the edges are pretty torn up, plus the checklist in the back to find out how white you are has already been filled out twice. Oh well, I'll just put a key as to who wrote what. The previous owner was only 34% white. Hahaha.

amazon

I blog about the most unimportant things. I can't believe nearly 50 people have looked at this!

Anyway, while I was buying things I didn't need off of Forever 21 I also bought a couple things off of Amazon. You may remember how I mentioned buying phone chargers, an N64 game, and a book on the 23rd? The chargers came within two days, the book's been shipped, but the game hasn't so apparently Amazon hasn't charged my debit card yet. Sweet. Well tonight I bought two more books, another car charger for my grandma, and a new AV cable for my N64 since I can't seem to find mine. The books are called The Hipster Handbook (by Robert Lanham) and Overheard in New York UPDATED: Conversations from the Streets, Stores, and Subways (by S. Morgan Friedman and Michael Malice). They both sound like they're going to be really good reads. I hope I'm not disappointed.

While we're on the subject on Amazon, I'd just like to throw in the fact that my boss's brother's wife looks like an Amazon. She's really tall and scary and intimidating. I hate when she calls to order for carry-out. I feel like she's going to come in and yell at me for something really minor when she picks up her pizzas.

OH OH OH!

I found something to be really excited about. The sequel to Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater, which is called Linger, comes out in July! I can't wait! I just finished Shiver again today but I'll probably read it again sometime in July since it's such a quickie. Plus it's a really good book. It's full of love, depressing moments, death, and other great things. ;) I loveeee it.

nearly wednesday

It will be Wednesday in an hour and, looking at my to-do list below, I've barely accomplished anything. I don't see myself finishing that list til the end of the week. I officially suck.

What have I done the past couple of days besides what's crossed out on my list, you wonder? Welllllll! I...

• Watched Zombieland (sucked), The Men Who Stare at Goats (not bad), and Valentine's Day (pretty good, made me cry).
• Bought car chargers for my mom and I, Pokemon Snap for the N64, and this book called Stuff White People Like: A Definitive Guide to the Unique Taste of Millions by Christian Lander. I can't wait to get all of this stuff in the mail. It will make my day (or days if it all comes on different ones, which I'm sure will happen).
• Made a list of things I probably need to take to college with me.
• Bought eggplant colored towels for college.
• Went to work (Tuesday night).
• Nearly died from the heat.

;) Are you impressed? If I knew how to let you (whoever you may be) access the comments, I'm sure you would say "Hell yes I am!" ...right?
