Texting texting textingggggg is what I'm actually doing right now. Blog from the iPhone! Hopefully a funny autocorrect ends up in here somewhere (; sorry this was late; I was busy at a Super Bowl party on Sunday!! I was ecstatic when the Fishes beat the Parrots!! Oh that was Animal Planet? Whatever.
At this moment I am sitting in a library; done with homework, listening to an obnoxious copy machine, waiting for class, and really just having one of those "I don't know what to do with my life right now" moments. Love those right? Tonight on the agenda is yodeling at trees, putting applesauce in my hair, and spreading disease! Actually I'm just gonna go get a facial and do some homework. BUT at 9:00 tonight is the kick off show of my new radio show Behind the Smile with my co-host Victoria Sparkman. wbju.home.bju.edu is the link to listen over your computer (: might not work with a Mac though /:
POEM TIME
I'm sitting on a bench
I don't like learning French
Around the house of mine
I can't find Kyle Cline.
I do not know why Kyle
Is in this poem at all.
But it rhymed with "mine"
And this is spring, not fall.
I just thought that you should know
Nothing makes any sense, oh no.
The meter in this line is lame
And Francis isn't my name. Either.
This is about the beautiful things in life. They aren't glitzy or gorgeous, but plain. And that's why we love them. Chocolate is Brown.

modnar pants
Why hello there! *cough cough* excuse me, *couch* I'm really sorry, I just *cough, hack, wheeze!!!!*. Yup you got it, I think I'm sick, and my conversations tend to sound a lot like the previous.. GIVE ME THE VITAMINS!!! Or not, it's okay, cuz I'm gonna tough it out. I WILL LIVE ON! Yeah, I know that's what the peanut butter said but I'm legitimate this time, I promise. This blog post is going to be very whoa, when did that zit get there?! Ew. The last thing I need is some pumpkins drooling all over my shoes like they did on the last full moon. Even left stains ): Thankfully, I was able to get the DVD version of my favorite ballet. The one where Rachel McAdams gets tangled in a spider web so Johnny Travolta sings her out of the stomach of the lake octopus. I still want a bunny named Smith ): I went hiking today, totally saw a beluga whale! It was hiding under a pink leaf, and was kind enough to make me a cup of orange juice. Last time I checked orange juice wasn't green, but you know, politics these days.. I got a little upset at first when my can of Febreze caught on fire, but then I realized all good things in life aren't free. They cost 5 cats and a dirty sock of mushrooms! Did anyone notice in the first sentence I said "couch"? Bandersnatch.
Chocolate is Brown :D

Gooooooogle
My internet is kinda mad at me for neglecting it all day while doing homework and is giving me the silent treatment by taking 123 years to load the results of my search topic. D: Can anybody say meh? Actually it's stronger than meh but weaker than an ugh. Megh. Mugh. Turtles? Sure, why not. With extra spice. Disturbed o.O
Sooooooo thank goodness for them search bars thought right? Love those guys! But I'm not gonna lie, Google is pretty cocky with the whole "I know what you're searching for after the first letter!!" I mean goodness. I was going to search DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME, totally not "dating websites for desperate women with low self esteem" ha! Silly Google... ^_^ I should probably stop dissing Google if I want it's cooperation soon. Still waiting -_-
This blog is going to be a little bit unusual because rather than talk about some simple life thing that's extraordinary (chocolate is brown), I'm actually going to be a complete narcissist and ramble on about myself and how life is going. Haha JUST KIDDING! Why would I ever do that? The secrets of Juliet remain to be unrevealed. I dooooo want to give you guys the opportunity to get inside my head a little bit and see what it's like to think the way I do. so give me some situations or scenarios and I will tell you how I would react. (: Also, give me a list of characters, place, and random objects, and I will write a story with those elements! It's very very fun and usually has the potential for many laughs. (: Anyone remember Yoda and Jack Sparrow in the Underwater Above the Sky Upside Down Forest? Or whatever that place was that Cleveland came up with. Pure epicness.
So onto the topic of today- actually, back to the topic of the day which would be the internet/search bars and my deteriorating relationship with both of them. Or is it just my relationship with the internet that beholds the search bar? Whatever, who's getting technical? Oh, sorry for not posting this on Sunday. I forgot ): Anyway------ does anyone ever think about how much we search for things on the internet? I know some people who would rather search Google for facebook and then click the link rather than just type in facebook.com. It's like a servant that does everything for us, and I am in love with it!!! I do hope dear Google search bar that you will forgive me for neglecting you today for the less attractive homework, but homework is very demanding and I don't have the guts to just say no! Ya know I think I made a relationship allegory in my last blog post. Sigh. This may be a problem. Anywhoozle, what's your favorite search bar?? Mine is Google <3 Yahoo just doesn't do the job.. And Bing? Who even are you?!!! If I ever get a bunny I want to name him Smith.

D: panic face! what's my name?
Dear readerssssssss,
I don't know if I will ever blog the same way again. I just updated to the "new blogger interface". I feel so mod, fresh, dapper, stylish, and most definitely panicked. I can't handle change! I mean, I've accepted Facebook's low self esteem and constant need for a makeover every 12 minutes. Blogspot just threw this one on me, no foreshadowing at all. I thought we had agreed to be honest and open with one another, but apparently I was wrong. Blogspot's makeover looks nice... But it's just not the Blogspot I thought I knew. I miss the old simple and plain Blogspot. Oh well, our love can work through anything since this new commitment I have to blog every week. So far successful. (: <3
In other news, I have also been exercising regularly and eating better. I don't remember if I made a commitment to pay more attention to the news- but that happened! Yay. I honestly don't even remember my other new year's resolutions haha, so much for that! Oh yeah, spend less money- check. Still working on the other a little bit, but I will survive!
So other things on my mind... Names. I have a new photography business that I had decided on a name for, and I'm now having second thoughts. I even had some good suggestions, but nothing seems to fit quite right. And then I got to thinking, why is that? Have you ever thought about if you had a different name? I've heard plenty of people wish that they went by their middle name rather than their first, and I've also thought about that also. I was just redundant by saying also twice, it's like I repeated myself. And I did it again a second time. I'm having too much fun now. Anywayyyyyyy. There's some Shakespearian thing that's all "What's a rose but smells as sweet by any other name" (yes I KNOW that's not exactly how it goes, but I'm just using it as an example so calm down bookworm). And I gotta say, Shakespeare has a point. What if my name was Sarah? "But you don't look like a Sarah, you look like a Juliet" yeah who decides that huh?? How is it that people look like their names? They surely look quite different when they were born, and most mothers to be decide on a name before seeing their child. But somehow we "look" like our names. I think if I was born a Sarah people would be just as quick to say I didn't look like a Juliet. I blame the concept of familiarity. Names also associate thoughts so quickly, especially to those who are judgmental. When someone hears your name they immediately visual your hair, eyes, nose, etc. but also think "I like them, I don't like them, I don't know them, I'm very close to them, they act too 'this' or 'that', and their clothes are rather 'this' or 'that' and etc." Our names have so many connotations it's ridiculous, but even then changing our name wouldn't change who we are or what people think at all. Unless of course your name is Zippthorne- with two P's!

mainstream....
I'm going to go ahead and apologize for writing this considering it's probably the most predictable blog post I've ever written. Yes, I am talking about New Year's Resolutions. What's that? No, it's not just a dream. It's a goal! And sadly only 12% of people are ever actually successful. So start with small specific steps such as losing a pound a week rather than just to "lose weight".
Ironically, Kim Kardashian's resolution of 2011 was to stay single the entire year of being 30. For those of you who don't know, she got married and divorced within 72 days. Welcome to the 88% of new year's losers, Kim. That leads to her 2012 resolution which is "to tone it down", which she has already begun to do by changing her Twitter background to nothing. Baby steps, baby steps. Rob Kardashian wants to start a sock line because he says he sees patterns in his head. Try seeing a doctor, Rob. Ashton Kutcher wants to be nice, Lea Michele wants to have fun, and the grouchy Simon Cowell is resolved to not make a resolution. Thanks, pessimist. Miley Cyrus says she wants to stop smoking in 2012, and she can just hand over her cigarettes to Adam Levine who is resolved to START smoking in 2012. Well played...
I'm usually not a big fan of resolutions, but decided maybe this year I could use some revision. My resolutions are as follows (and not in order of importance):
1. blog more often! let's say once a week. and you guys can hold me accountable (:
2. exercise at least 30 minutes a day
3. replace junk food with healthy alternatives
4. spend money wisely
5. be loving and caring and "there" for people, and more friendly all around
6. seek out opportunities rather than wait for them
7. number 7 is a secret
8. study harder
9. solve a 4x4 rubiks cube
10. YOU PICK, yeah just pick a resolution for me and i might try it out (:
So back to talking about the average person and their resolutions studies show that men succeed when they set goals, and women succeed when they make their resolutions public and get help from their friends. (So what else is new?) Good luck to you all in your new years resolutions (:

slippers
Why can't we wear them everywhere? It's not fair! They're warm and fuzzy and you don't have to wear socks with them. I really don't understand why slipper manufacturers haven't made really thick soles for these shoes. Whoever invented slippers was a genius. Uggs might be the closest thing to a slipper/boot but let's face the harsh reality that Uggs are just that. Ugg-ly. Once we accept that fact we can move on with life, find ourselves, and better serve the helpless world around us. At least the world of fashion, for now. Gotta start somewhere, might as well start with the feet! Looks like I'm going to be writing some letters to slipper companies over Christmas break. What even are some famous slipper brands? Anybody know? If slippers did make it big, I can't wait to see their summer line. That reminds me of slipper flip flops. What in the world is the purpose? I don't understand the warm fuzziness if the whole top of your foot is uncovered, letting the harsh winds of your home storm against your barren feet. I'm gonna create slippers with a high heel. That would make just as much sense. Fuzzy and taller. That's everybody's dream, right? I mean who needs skinny and beautiful when you can be fuzzy and taller?! Or at least your feet can be fuzzy... Or surrounded by fuzz... Anyway. I'm gonna go practice yodeling. Deuces!
