Dead week

One question. Why doesn't St. Edward's offer a dead week to it's students before finals. Come on now everyone has a dead week...or at least a few dead days, all we get is a super packed week of projects and papers due before our finals. Does this give us any time to have a break and study for our tests? NO! It doesn't. All it does is make us even more stressed out because right after we turn in all of our end of the year projects and papers we have to turn right around and study for our finals. Totally unfair if you ask me.

Ain't nothing but pirate talk

So I've decided everything sounds better if you say it like a pirate. I don't know for sure what made me think pirate talk was so cool but it is. I use it very often. For example, when someone asks me something obvious I reply with a "yarr" like yes but in pirate, you understand? You can use pirate talk anywhere and for all occasions. I like to think of it as a way to switch things up, regular talk just gets so boring, am I right? Here are some more examples of pirate talk that you can use yourself:

Narr: No
Nevarr: Never
Darr: Duh
Ar Narr: Oh no
Ar Yarr: Oh yea
Harrharr: Haha
Suparr: Super
Forevarr: Forever
Hilarr: Hilarious

Puppy...

I really really want a puppy. I am such a dog person, I've grown up with dogs all of my life. I have a Great Dane back home and ever since I've lived away in Austin for school I have been so lonely without my pup. His name is Titan and believe me he definitely lives up to his title. If I had a dog I would take him on walks everyday. He could even sleep in my bed. I knew if I bought a dog my parents would probably cut me off financially though so that's the only thing holding me back...I'm watching a dog roam around right now outside my window. There is no owner in site. He has a red collar on and he's midsize but pretty muscular, tan colored, pointy ears. Maybe I should steal him. He can be my dog and I can tell my parents that he found me and wouldn't leave...that's pretty much what's happening, he's not leaving the grassy area outside of my window. He obviously wants me to become his new owner.

Windy

Hair blowing uncontrolably, scarf getting tossed and twisted arouns my shoulders, papers flying. How frustrating. Windy weather has got to be the most annoying weather there is. I mean let's face it it's even hard to drive in windy weather. My jeep wrangler blows all over the road. I hate windy weather. Go away windy weather, go away.

Victoria's Secret Fashion Show

This past Wednesday the 2008 annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show aired on CBS. To be honest I didn't really like this year's event at all. Year's past I have been in love with the show. I love the sexy outfits that grace the runway, as well as the killer music that they always have going along with the show. But this year was different. First of all, the runway was running left to right, horizontal, sideways, instead of front to back or up and down. That along left a bad taste in my mouth. It made it almost impossible to see the outfits well, not to mention the cameras this year were all over the place focusing more on the faces in the audience then the hot bodies of Adriana Lima and Heidi Klum. I mean wings weren't even a big deal this year. I think a few of the girls sported giant bows on their backs once or twice but the show definitely didn't have the same effect as it does when the famous angel wings come out on the backs of the models. And the music, gosh the music wasn't good either. Usher opened the show and then sang a song or two towards the end. I'm sorry Usher I usually love ya, but let's be honest you just didn't sound good, more like a little shakey, and maybe the hot models were to blame, they'd probably make me nervous too. In between Usher were some other people who obvisouly didn't make an impact on me considering I can't even remember who they were now. I'll admit that the show got better as it went on...I'll give them that, but come on I wait all year for this and this is what I got. Hopefully next year will be better.

Lindsay Lohan shot

NEWS FLASH! There's a new drink out there, all of the bars are serving it. It's known as the Lindsay Lohan. What's it consist of you ask? None other than a traditional "red headed slut" with a splash of coke. And yes, I do mean coca cola. Clever.

P.s. nice picture of the gal huh? pretty flattering. yea I don't really like the chick as you can tell.

"Smile with your eyes"

Victoria Beckham is featured in this month's issue of Harper's Bazaar. In it Posh talks about her fear of smiling and how she is slowing becomming used to smiling...well smirking as she refers to a new smirk she has perfected for the cameras. She goes on to say how learning to "smile with her eyes" has helped her with the issue. You know, I've heard of this before, smiling with your eyes and all. It's true it really helps, try it, look in the mirror at yourself and do not smile. Think about smiling through your eyes instead and without smiling you can almost appear to be smiling all saying it with your eyes. What a good idea right? So next time you flash someone a big grin and don't receive one in return, just imagine that they could really be smiling with their eyes instead.
