It's Like Dessert Pizza! Like Two Awesome Ideas...
Actually I hate dessert pizza (always gross!), but the sentiment is still there. I downloaded (500) Days of Weezy, which is exactly what it sounds like. A mash-up album of the soundtrack of the film (500) Days of Summer, a film I have no desire to see but a soundtrack that I would enjoy judging from the track list, and the work of Lil’ Wayne, an artist I enjoy when he crops up in my iTunes...

Today is the National Day of Dance
Oh hell yeah. Nigel from SYTYCD will be there! I actually only watch the clips of the dancing and skip all of the judging on that show because WOW IT IS AWFUL. I understand reality TV judges aren’t actually there to critique any-one’s performance but MAN. I CAN SEE YOUR PANDERING AND GIVING INTO THE PRODUCERS FROM MY COMPUTER SCREEN. That is like, 2 whole screens away from where it...

I Want To Talk About Boys.
I want to talk about boys, and movies, and nail polish, and who decided clogs were cool again, about colors, about why it’s so fucking hot, about hair, and studying abroad, about why I’m scared to study abroad, about what a girl does for a month in Europe, about our favorite foods, about the best song we’ve heard recently, about pop music, about Lady GaGa, about this play I...

In Which I Explain Another Area Where I Am...
So blog layouts. When I had a Xanga, oh yes I was one of those kids with Xangas, I thought that if I could just get the coolest, hippest, most emo layout, I too would become an emaciated scene queen, with extremely questionable hair and poor choice in music, clothes and boys. I thought that if those girls had 1000 fans, friends, followers, whatever it was called (it probably started with...

I am not okay with this. I am overreacting, but. I am having a hard time comprehending this monstrosity. My allegiance to either Team Pie or Team Cake ebbs and flows with my proximity to both. But this is sacrilegious. Sometimes in life you have to make choices! You can’t always have it both ways. Sometimes there is no shade of grey! YOU CANNOT HAVE YOUR PIE, INSIDE YOUR CAKE, AND EAT...

I have so many feelings about this, but I can’t find the words. This is exactly how safe sex works, because you will never be able to stop laughing, ogling enough, to have sex.

This is what DC looked like on Sunday. Meteorology was my secret favorite science (know the future!), until I took Natural Hazards. College ruins everything.

Continuing Sagas in Employment.
This is Part two. It has very little to do with part one, except that they are both things that have happened to me.
So I have a weird, complicated job that is hard to explain, so I’ve stopped trying to explain it. Mostly. But my Mother taught me that when you get a job, you do it and you do it well. This is not a common sentiment? That is one of the things I’ve learned this summer....

Oh Canada! Or, I am 2 Degrees Away From Kevin...
I’ve been busy! I’m going to divide this post into two parts. PART ONE: What I Did Over My Canada Vacation! PART TWO:….Tuesday, and How I Am Rewarded, potentially, For My Competence. Part Two will come when I’ve written it! Later!
Part One: What I Did Over My Canada Vacation!
I went to Canada! Well, actually before I went to Canada I went to a Kid Sister concert. It was...
DC is always the best. The End. →
I love my city a lot you guys. The only reason I don’t have a D.C. tattoo, is because I’m trying to decide how tacky it would be if I got more then one.

I should be working...
But I have been browsing the Internets because it makes me feel better (and isn’t that a loaded statement). So there is tons of News today: the Palin’s eldest girl-child is marrying her baby daddy, a show about thin white rich people having thin white rich problems has ended, to be replaced by another show of TWRP and their TWRP problems, some hot Spanish people got hitched, and oil is...

Oh I see what you did there, Karma.
This is why you don’t complain. Even in your head, even in your blog, even to your mom.
I am very busy now. Over the next week I have 11…stories? things? that need to be written. They range in size from a two sentence blurb, to a properly fleshed out article for a newsletter. I am not counting the number of e-mails I need to send. For some reason, e-mails take me eons to write....

Well Then.
Today went well. I will do doing a shitload of writing this summer, which is incredibly exciting. Writing and interviewing and putting together an arts journal. If all goes according to plan (what plan?) there should be a tangible object with my name attached to it by the end of the summer.
I miss having art I can hold.
That said, I will be “blogging” for the DCCOAS so I might save...
In Lieu of actually celebrating Independence...
I am watching the Star Wars marathon on Spike. This is because I’m cool and awesome you guys, please still be friends with me.

Gawd Bless Uhmurka.
Every 4th of July, PBS hosts “A Capitol Fourth” (wordplay!) the big celebration for our country’s birthday, hosted in its lovely capitol city on the National Mall.
*IMPORTANT DC FACT*
The National Mall, or The Mall, is not a shopping mall! It is the large green strip of land in downtown DC that hosts all of the fancy memorials and free (FREE!) national museums. Also Congress is...

The Past Few Days...
Have been frustrating, to say the least. I’m not here to gripe, well no actually this is my blog and I can bitch all I want, but I’m so done with this job thing, so I’ll keep it short (Note: Not actually short).
The Summer Youth Employment Program (Shit, The Kids Need To Do Stuff So They Don’t Kill Each Other), started by our “lovely” Mayor, basically...
