w/e

ive been in philly for the past 3 days, sorta. the first day was great, but the last 2...urgh. i hate doctors. i hate getting paranoid about crap. i hate being lost. i hate having to replace my thoughts with song lyrics to avoid breaking down... i hate being so completely terrified of breaking down. i hate avoiding living because i am afraid not to live... makes no sense, i know, which i guess is y i hate it so much. actually, im sure none of this makes sense. i just wanted 2 say it anyway.

All Star by Smashmouth

u all know this one, im pretty sure...

Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead
Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Back to the rule and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
So much to do so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets
You'll never know if you don't go
You'll never shine if you don't glow
Hey now you're an
All Star get your game on, go play
Hey now you're a
Rock Star get the show on get paid
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold
It's a cool place and they say it gets colder
You're bundled up now but wait 'til you get older
But the meteor men beg to differ
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture
The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
The waters getting warm so you might as well swim
My world's on fire how about yours
That's the way I like it and I never get bored
Somebody once asked could I spare some change for gas
I need to get myself away from this place
I said yep what a concept
I could use a little fuel myself
And we could all use a little change
Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Back to the rule and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
So much to do so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets
You'll never know if you don't go
You'll never shine if you don't glow

Random rambling about my life

This week was awesomely fun and because I dont feel like writing my french essay now as i should I'm just gonna tell you about it instead. We had another dance, which I always love. Not that I would actually GO to a dance (well, I show up fo 2 minutes and then I run away), but dance-night always means total anarchy in the entire school, so that's fun. This dance was special though cause it was on "Fasching", where people dress up like on halloween (just that it isnt spooky-themed). Of course, i didnt know about any of this, so I had to improvise a costume. I wanted to go as man because I figured it wouldn't take much effort to draw a mustache, but apparently it takes more than facial hair to be a man. So when I realized that despite my beautiful mustache I just couldnt pull off enough manliness. So I ended up going as transvestite, seeing as the marker wouldnt go off my face.

The outfit was inspired by Angel from "rent"

Other than walking through 5 inch snow in high heels I also refounded the "English Literature Club" with a classmate who stayed in Arizona last year. Our aim ist to make version 1.1 of the club more of a way for people to better their english than an exclusive club for former exchange student like the last one was. We dealt with the Lady of Shalott on our first meeting and it went pretty awesomely.
Bummer: The oreos are gone and I dont feel like walking to the dvd rental place =(

Drs, Dentists, Hospitals, Oh My!

Is it just me, or has there seriously been a huge amount of people getting seriously sick lately? My friend's aunt dying, a boy in class blacking out, my uncle having a heart attack, my mom's boss having a stroke, a relative of a relative in the hospital, my cousin's brain cyst...it seems freakishly never- ending. I even think im forgetting some, which is sorta bad...Not to mention all the crap with my possible lupus and ehler's-danlos syndrome... not that im sure i trust that particular doctor's judgement. for so many reasons...
and, of course, the dental crap. i wonder if it's possible to become immune to novacaine, cuz it didnt seem to be working on me so well today. like, ya know how if u take drugs often enough u start to need more and more of them to get high? it would suck if im becoming tolerant of novacaine... i think that's the terminology they use, something about tolerance.
anyway, do any of u know people getting sick? is it some sort of epidemic, although everything seems completely unrelated? or is it just me noticing things like this? or is it one huge coincidence? (i do actually believe in those, ive decided.)
and a little side note- remember caroling at the hospital, and they talked to us about volunteering? i went for an interview today, im gonna start doing that, either on weekends or this summer. there's a lot of programs they do, there's even a pre-med thing the lady was telling me about... well, actually this part i meant to direct at madison, because of allied medical, and i dont think she reads this anymore. w/e, ill try to mention it to her sometime.

OREOS!!!!

They have been sighted!!

At the local dvd-rental place!! IN GERMANY!!!

They have been bought!!

At a ridiculous high price!!


This is a historic event. Finally, German food importers have come to their senses, after oreos have already been lonng-established in the netherlands and the uk. Halleluja!
