I Love Puppies

So, one of my parentals just got a job that pays lots of cash.

Which means, come spring tie, we'll build a fence.

Which means, come summer time, we'll get a puppy. And who doesn't love puppies?

I'll tell you who: Ann Coulter.

ANN COULTER HATES PUPPIES. D= From now on, this will be my new meditation mantra. "Ann. Coulter. Hates. Puppies."

But I don't.

This is why I should be President.

I Hate Taylor Swift

Fuck Taylor Swift.

I swear to Gods if I have to listen to "Love Story" on the radio one more time...

I'm going to burst into little bloody pieces all over my bedroom.

That is all.

This is why I should be President.

I Still Hate Twilight

So, TS and I are trying to look up a book on Amazon that begins with the word "the" and the letter "t".

The moment we typed in the letter "t", THIS god awful mess appeared.


BTW, the WTF and red marks were originally on there. We soooo did not add them in Paint. As an icon (also saved onto my computer) once said:

"Twilight makes me weep for the future of literature."

This is why I should be President.

I Hate Procrastination

And yet, I am one of hundreds of procrastination queens.

Expect a review of InkHeart later. TS and I are having a girls night out. Or as Miley "Can't learn my lesson and I still keep taking risque pictures: Cyrus calls it: the GNO.

-Insert Review Here- In about 4 hours. ;P

I Hate Freaks

Happy 36th anniversary of Roe v. Wade!!! I can almost ignore freaks like this:

I Love Inaugurations

Especially when it's happening to a Democrat.

And wasn't I SOOOO totally right? Who else watched Obama's speech and saw rainbows and sparkles in the background? At one point, I'm pretty sure I saw a unicorn flitting through the crowd.

Even though a unicorn would probably have trouble flitting through a crowd of about 4 million people. (No joke.)

"Hey, is that a unicorn?"

"Shut the hell up! Obama's talking!"

The African-Americans celebrating at the inauguration with us were extremely happy and inspired, though, being the naive white girl I am, it WAS a bit frustrating knowing that most of them didn't care at all about his political views.

So, much to the dismay of my wonderful sponser, I did an improv speech encouraging them to join Young Democrats.

Jackasses forever!

This is why I should be President.

I Hate Double Standards

I don't have time this morning, so somebody PLEASE remind me to rant about this article later:

Article Here

In the first paragraph, the article talks about "Closet Space."

"It's okay to stash emergency tampons in your man's medicine cabinet. But if you start staking out his closet, he'll feel like it's a full-scale space invasion. Take it from Reggie, 29: 'The commute to my girl's office is easier for her from my apartment, so she started staying over during the week," he explains. "The arrangement was cool until she began to keep more and more stuff at my place. Before I knew it, her dry cleaning was taking up half my closet. I said she could leave a few things, not move in!' "

Now, that, I am OK with. This is a common courtesy thing that everyone needs to respect. It's like if I go to TS's house every once in a while, but start going so often that I decide to keep my bird, fish, and computer (the latter, she probably wouldn't mind) at her house. Then, I started leaving all of my school outfits there and underwear and the like got mixed up.

Yuck. Next subject.

For a while, I didn't really think too much on the second one. Then, I got around to actually digesting it, and realized how much it pissed me off:

"I dated a girl who straightened my apartment every time she came over," he says. "The day she headed toward my bedroom with a vacuum and dust rag, I had flashbacks of my mother pulling my porn stash from underneath my unmade bed when I was 15. Not a good visual!"

Seriously?! Your girlfriend is fucking cleaning up after you and all you can think about is your mom?! There's another comment in parenthesis about a French maid costume which I won't post here. You're lucky she's cleaning up and not nagging you 24/7 about your fucking pig sty. What a load of bull.

And besides, if you're stupid enough to hide pornography in a place so obvious as under the bed, you deserve to have someone come in and find it. For that matter, you're lucky your mom even cleaned up after you, you dumb swine.

The third one is disgusting. Who the fuck would ever want to use their boyfriend's toothbrush? An icky person. Bleh. No further comments.

The last one (about the remote) really just kind of baffles me. Men can't share the TV every once in a while because if we rule the TV, we start to take over everything? That's pretty sad. If you can take over the television on Super Bowl Sunday, then I at least deserve a day of "Top Model" should a marathon be running that day.

Edit: TS here. I have to quote this to get the full effect across:
"Guys are more than willing to hand over the reins when it comes to many things. For instance, feel free to take control in the sack."

Oh. My. God. OK, so it's fine for a girl to be in control only when it's sexy for the guy. Screw that.

This is why I should be president.

I Still Love Movies

In case you will be needing to occupy yourself for a while, here's a list of my favorite movies. Features an array of different genres, but there are a few animated films

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone: By far, the BEST adaptation movie since "To Kill a Mockingbird." The inaccuracies are so few and far between, you don't notice. Not to mention, isn't the HP trio just the cutest little bunch of ten year olds you've ever seen in your life? Harry's face when he first witnesses magic is adorable, and it has a certain charm and naivety the later movies lack. (Though I also love 'Chamber of Secrets')

Beauty and the Beast: This movie is irresistible. The songs are fun, the animation is beautiful, and the characters are more 3 dimensional than they look. Definitely a better romance than 'Twilight'.

Anastasia: Though this movie doesn't exactly boast historical accuracy, it has that nice Don Bluth touch in which the characters are neatly drawn and the surroundings are breath-taking. There are a few cute musical numbers, too, most of which I memorized in fifth grade.

All Dogs Go to Heaven: Speaking of Don Bluth, this is probably his most fun movie. I adore "Secret of NIHM," but there's just something about this movie that just keeps me glued to the TV every time I watch it. When Charlie finally ascends to Heaven at the end of the film, I tear up every time.

The Plague Dogs: I just recently watched this film, but the two furry main characters stole my heart. Rowf and Snitter, the main dogs, are constantly pitted against overwhelming odds and you just want to take them home. Or perhaps not. Snitter attracts the worst luck when it comes to owners.

The Silence of the Lambs: Jodie Foster, Anthony Hopkins, and cannibalism. What's not to love? Rent it.

Scream: I just love how this movie makes fun of itself, and how the characters are aware of all the slasher movie cliches to the point of brushing against the fourth wall. I NEVER get tired of this movie, and I laugh at Stu and Gary every time.

Mean Girls: My dad said everybody's generation has a high school movie. I proudly declare this one my high school movie.

Something's Gotta Give: Probably my favorite romantic-comedy. Jack Nicholson and Diane Keaton are a hilarious older couple. In ten years, I can see them rocking in chairs on the porch, Diane writing a screenplay while Jack shouts at the neighborhood kids to get the hell off the lawn.

Tell me about your favorite movies. (I looking at yooooooooouuuu, TS... lol, not really.)

This is why I should be President.

I Love Colleges

BJ wrote about her New Year's Resolutions, so I suppose I should write about mine. Here it goes:

1) Cut back on soda. Caffeine withdrawals SUCK!
2) Finish one of my stories (I have less motivation than BJ).
3) Stop biting my nails.

So I kind of cheated and I've already accomplished number 3... and I never said WHEN in 2009 I will accomplish 1 and 2... so I'm good the way I am for a while.

And all of this has to do with college. No, really, it does.

OK, it doesn't. You see, today I officially accepted my offer of admission to the University of Illinois-Urbana-Champaign (engineering major). Why so early? Because --get this!-- I'm also enrolled at St. Louis University right now (in a dual-credit course) until January 7, so... I'm in two colleges at once!

I think it's funny.

This is why I should be president.

I Hate New Years Resolutions

HA! Nabbed the first post of 2009! Suck on that, TS!

......Just kidding.....

Anyways, during my New Year's Eve celebration, I snarfed down a TON of goodies, and if I ate like that every day, I'd probably weigh at least 250 pounds by 2010. THAT'S not a healthy spike in weight. O_o

So, here are my New Years resolutions:

Cut back on beef. In the immortal words of Chik-Fil-A, "Eat mor chiken."
Also cut back on dairy.
Support better treament of dairy cows, pigs, and chickens at the slaughterhouse. For the love of all that is holy, STOP shoving growth hormones down the throats of our hamburgers!
Donate and help charities that shelter victims of domestic abuse.
Volunteer at the humane society and look for a house-broken dog in the process.
Finish 3 stories.

And I SUPPOSE I'll try to be a "better" person and all that junk. Not. Being a hypocrite is too much fun.

This is why I should be President.

PS- I'm so excited! Barack Obama will be inaugurated on the 20th and he'll turn America into a land of magical happiness and equality. The ceremony will have rainbows and unicorns and we'll have another Progressive Era and everyone will have sparkles flying out their butts!

Happy New Year. ;P
