spring 2011 schedule

I'm trying to figure out what classes I want to take next semester. So far my schedule is looking like this:

• 8:35-9:25 History 1700 - American Civilization (3 credits) MWF
• 9:40-10:30 French 102 - Beginning French II (4 credits) MTWH
• 10:45-12:05 Biology 1006 - World of Dinosaurs (3 credits) TH
• 10:45-11:35 CLCV 1550 - Classical Mythology (3 credits) MWF
• 6:00-10:00pm Film 3120 - History of Film II (4 credits) T

17 credit hours? I may be killing myself.. but it sounds fun to me. And it won't interfere with my work schedule except for the film class. But hopefully it won't matter if I'm a few minutes late to class each week.

standings

I added a new heading on the right side of the page called "Standings" 

Basically, it's so that everyone can keep up with the competition that's going down in the dorms to see who can make out with the most people before the end of the school year. Rules were instated on Sunday because Werner is a sore loser and didn't like my methods of getting to the top.

1. The make-out session must be longer than 10 seconds.
2. Each person is limited to 3 make-outs per night.

The first was created because I made out with two people for less than 10 seconds and Werner's doesn't think they should count. The second was also made for me, because I made out with 5 people Saturday night and Werner's jealous that he didn't get any. If you noticed that there are two numbers beside my name, it's because everyone thinks I should only get 2 points from Saturday (bringing my score to 18) while my actual count is at 20. I'm going to go by the bigger number because it makes me sound like a winner (or a slut, I'm fine with either title). 

Upcoming events:

• 11/3 - Doctor's appointment after work, Inception or Toy Story 3 at 7 in Sugarhouse
• 11/4 - French quiz at 10:45, Advisor meeting at 1:30
• 11/5 - Megamind premier.. Corinne and I totally want to go.
• 11/9 - Reel Big Fish concert with Corinne

wombinations and such

Upcoming events:

• 10/30 - Lunch with Nick Pranno!, Halloween party at Kappa Sig.
• 11/1 - Math quiz I won't be ready for.
• 11/4 - Advisor meeting to register for classes.
• 11/9 - Reel Big Fish with Corinne.

If my check has gone through by the time I get out of work tomorrow, I'm going to haul ass down to the Apple Store and get myself one of those fancy little Apple TV's. I am so excited. Dance party in my room!

OH. SPEAKING OF MY ROOM...

EMILY MOVED OUT

and Corinne's beautiful face moved in.

About god damn time. As she was moving her shit out of my room, the above happened. I was getting so sick of her annoying little hints about going to The Keep and how much fun she has with the guys there. Other things that bothered me about her: Her attention-seeking sighs that I refused to give in to, her lack of personality and sense of humor, and the way she would turn the heat on high and open one of the windows. Oh and how she would talk to people about how she doesn't understand why I hate her or what she did to deserve my behavior. She just really, really sucks. I don't like people who suck.

I finally got around to hanging Balder back up above my bed. He's been chillen on my floor under the window ever since I rearranged my room a few weeks ago. He's lookin' gooooood. :)

Also, I've been tossing around some ideas for books with Corinne for a while now and they are starting to go into effect. One is a dictionary of wombinations (word combinations). Corinne has a sick obsession with combining words and the only logical solution would be to make a book of all the shit she comes up with. I may have mentioned my How-to Be A Total Fucking Creeper book idea before. It's basically the story of my life with a few instructions thrown in. I feel like it could really help some people out.

Here's some examples of wombinations:

1. Chorgasm - chocolate orgasm; The Comte de Reynaud had such an intense chorgasm that all of Lasquenet could hear his moans erupting from the front of the chocolaterie.
2. Flaid, Plannel - plaid flannel; Pat always look amazing in that purple flaid shirt, don't you think?
3. Fouple - fat couple; Get behind me, Coco, there's a fouple coming at us like a freight train.
4. Speemon - speed demon; Samantha is such a speemon when she drives. Good thing the pedestrians around here are observant.
5. Fanksy - fake Banksy; Looks like Fanksy struck again over on 9th and 9th..

This fanksy, which we have so lovingly named Blanche, can be found all over downtown Salt Lake. She's a big fan of hanging out on dumpsters and newspaper boxes.

I STILL HAVEN'T STARTED MY MIDTERM PAPER. AGGGGHH!

Yesterday was... interesting? I took Corinne out on a date to Takashi where we had some superb sushi, good edamame and vegetable tempura that didn't even come close to Happy Sumo's in taste.

Strawberry Fields: Escolar, strawberries, spicy sauce and fresh chili peppers inside, toasted almonds and eel sauce outside.

Buddha: Tempura-fried portabellas, green beans, sweet potatoes and carrots, topped with sweet sauce and sesame seeds.

Then we came back to the room and watched Mega Piranha... It was such a great movie. The acting was top-notch, the plot was very well written, and the special effects made me want to cry out with joy. Uhhn, I would definitely recommend it to everyone. ;) In case you didn't catch on, I was being sarcastic. It was a terrible movie. I don't think it was even worth the $5 that Corinne paid for it. If you really want to see it, watch it when you're either very high or very drunk so that it will actually seem okay. Otherwise, skip it and go straight to Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus.

Then we headed over to the Union for a Halloween-themed Crimson Nights. Corinne went in her sailor outfit again and I was just a kid from Missouri in a dress, haha. But I worked it. It wasn't very fun. There was a big sweaty dance floor where Drunk Werner was getting his groove on, along with button making and henna tattoos. We probably stayed for an hour and a half, most of which was probably spent looking for Werner and other people we knew. Then we sat in Jobe's living room talking and being bored. Or was that just me? I was bored out of my mind and wanted to leave the whole time. The fact that I was in a really poor mood didn't help much either, hah. Corinne and I bailed right after 2 am and came back to my bed to watch Splice with Joe. So we didn't end up going to bed until after 5 am.. meaning I was way too tired and unmotivated to go to my 8:45 Fall Training for work this morning.. oops. 

Things I need to accomplish today:

• Go to the City Library and return all of my books and movies.
• Volunteer with Corinne for her LEAP class.
• Try not to freeze my ass off at the Utah vs. CSU game tonight.
• Maybe start writing my paper so I'm not in Starbucks all day tomorrow doing it.

woo, 600 viewers!

We should start having a blog party every time I hit a hundred more viewers. Does that make sense? 700, 800, 900, etc. There will be cookies at the party for 1,000 viewers. I'll bake a cake, even. It'll be awesome.

Werner is sitting next to me. His feet smell terrible.

Werner: Wash your feet.

These pictures are from the first Saturday of Fall Break. The game plan had been to pre-game in Craig's room (1st picture), then go down to State St. where we would find hobos to buy us booze and go to 18+ clubs. We barely made it to State when I started hurling all over the car. Oh, it was lovely. Pulled over into some random parking lot so I could continue my puking spree and get some air. Obviously that didn't help because I fouled up the car again once we were back in it. We came back to 814 - somehow without getting caught by the part of RA's in the hallway that we passed - where I continued to die over Werner's toilet (2nd picture).

Joe, Corinne, Werner and I are watching Secret Window from my bed right now. I'm still trying to figure out what I want to write my midterm paper on... I should really pull my shit together since it's due Monday night and I'm gonna be way too busy that day to pull anything together right before class. So yeah, we're watching Secret Window so I can get some musical motivation.

The gang also went to Happy Sumo on Sunday for some dank ass sushi. It was SOO GOOD, oh mah gawd. Craig doesn't agree though.. He got sicky sicky, poor Alaskan. Here's a drawing of us I did on our placemat:

Emily, Craig, Corinne, Sam, Joe, Daniel, Werner

I should become an artist. Those stick figures are grade A.. A as in awesome!
