Well..

Today in French class, my skit partner and I decided to celebrate Iowa.
The skit goes as follows- (excuse grammatical errors and lack of french characters...)
Alex-Oh la la...
Eliz-Excuse-moi?
Alex- Ah, mon dieu! C'est toi! J'ai su que j'ai connu cette derriere...
Eliz- Ca fait longtemps qu'on ne ses pas vu!
Alex- Out.. Ca fait longtemps vraiment...Mais, ecoutes... tu veux bien que je t'embrace??
Eliz- Ce n'est pas possible! Nous sommes en Caroline du sud!
Alex- Zut... c'est vrai. Alors...chez moi?
Eliz-...chez moi?
Alex- Alors...IOWA!
Eliz- Oui! Nous nous marions!
Alex- Oui! Parce-que nous pouvons maintenant!
Eliz- Allez-viens! Je ne puis dermeurer loin de toi plus longtemps!

And then the substitute took off ten points for inappropriate conduct! Something about kissing and girls can't get married. (Funny. that line about it not being able to happen because we are in South Carolina). The other thing is she approved the skit before we did it and then claimed we changed it before we went up to do it. How could we? We barely had time to write one skit!

I'm pretty sure SC would rather leave the United States than let two people who love each other get married. I don't have time to rant. I have to clean for room inspection. Perhaps cleaning will help me blow off a little steam. On the bright side, there are now four states, as you can see from my previous blog, that allow all people who love each other to get married.

To the Fourth State:

CONGRATS VERMONT!!!

Oh dear!

I realized today as I was taking a shower, that I'm almost out of my Exhale Alluring body wash. This is not good, you see, because I believe I only have two bottles, at most, left. Well buy some more! you may say. I could. But unfortunately, I think they aren't going to make it anymore! The only place I could get it was Target and last time I got it on clearance. I don't understand why it was on clearance. It's totally the best body wash ever and smells wonderful and is so much cheaper than Bath and Body Works!!! Why must everything I love go away??? My Pier One citrus saffron incense? I thought Enviga was gone, but thankfully, I found it again a few weeks ago. What next? Fuze??? If that happens, I will be devastated but I can find a substitute. Tacky glue and Tampax will probably never go off the market, so we won't have to deal with the possibility of that scenario.

I'm simply blogging right now to ignore part of an assignment I'm supposed to be doing about things I really don't want to think about. But I suppose, I should really get to that. [[I mean I'm done with most of the reading, it's just really depressing and politcal stuff always confuses me. I'm terrible with all of that. I want to be involved and I want to know what's going on, but there's like not a place for it in my head. But of course, I'm so slow catching on when I do try, what's current for me is practically being printed in history books. I still think it's like 2002 and that's almost as depressing as the stuff I'm reading about. Ugh. Can anyone make this a little more interesting for me??

I'm ready for summer to come so I can focus on things I want instead of focusing on things I really don't have the passion for. I just want to sit around with PaulieK and enjoy the stressless idea of not being tied to drama.


I hope my suitemates next year sing opera.

Iowa

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

It's April! [no joke?] [Thanks Dell for making this a late post...]

I don't know the history behind April Fools Day. I'm going to go look it up. But I think this year, April fools meant this: "It's April already?? This MUST be a joke." Unfortunately, that statement couldn't be followed by "APRIL FOOLS!" I looked up April Fools day. It goes way back and has to do with the calendars being changed in the 1580's...But it's a world-wide holiday. I think the world needs an even better sense of humor. If we can come together and play pranks one day a year, can't we all just get along? Of course, some people's jokes are other people's beliefs blah blah blah. But really, can't we just lighten up a little? I don't know, take a chill pill. Laugh.

In other news, I'm going places. I don't know where I'm going but I'm going. =]

Hello world.

This is my hand.

whoa.

Yesterday, (which was originally "Today" but one (and very likely the only) of my faithful readers came into my room. hi kat!) I finished Song of Solomon by Toni Morrison. And besides absolutely loving the book, I keep thinking: HOLY CRAP WHERE HAS THIS BOOK BEEN ALL OF MY LIFE???? I'm reading it again as soon as I finish my physics project. [[BOO PHYSICS PROJECT!]] I don't really know how to describe my love for this book. I put off doing my physics project because of this book. I put off doing French homework to read. I tried to learn my lines so I could go read. And the best part is, I don't have to have it finished until Wednesday! I never read ahead. Not because I only do the minumum, but beause I don't want to be confused or blurt out something that "hasn't happened yet" in class. However, Toni Morrison prevented me from being able to control myself. Instead of going to sleep, I read another chapter. Instead of trying to figure out how to get everything settled for the Angel Bowl, (besides the fact I am terrified of making phone calls), I finished the book. I'm really glad that I got to workout on Friday because I think my legs would have rebelled against me some time this weekend. This is because the chosen reading position for Song of Solomon was with my legs on top of my desk/table in courtyard. 90% of the book was read in this position and therefore my legs fell asleep constantly. (My chosen position for reading Things Fall Apart was under my desk...YES I'M A FREAK). Anyways. This was supposed to be about my love of Song of Solomon and my wondering about why I've never read this book before, not the process of me reading it! Well, I can't really describe why I love it yet. It's just AMAZING. And if you haven't read it, you totally should. "It's not weird!!!!" And then you should pretend that your teacher is Dr. Thomas. Because then the book will be even better. In fact, your entire life will be better because your life can only be better when Dr. Thomas is in it. Okay, I will not get sappy just yet. Song of Solomon was beautiful, Toni Morrison is a genius, and I can't wait to read it again.

Well then!

From the Appalachian State Class 2013 Facebook group:

Appalachian & Boone received 12" of snow Sunday night/Monday morning. This is the biggest snow event in one day since Jan. 27, 1998. Get used to checking this website often: http://booneweather.com/Forecast/Boone

Appalachian canceled all classes on Monday. This is something that rarely happens at ASU. We hope you all are ready for snow!

He has two mommies

Tomorrow will probably be the last snow day I will ever encounter. App State doesn't cancel school for snow. Unless students are getting frostbite and the gas is freezing in their cars. and last time that happened was like 1984.


I'm sad that I'll only have English class once this week. BUMMER.

Help Me!
