In honor of the Holidays, I leave you this Christmas Carol.

An instant favorite.

So presh. I love how he writes a note not to write any notes, that's like me: freaking out about freaking out. Yeah.

WELCOME TO FINALZ TIME, BETCH!

Don't mess.

I KNOW HIM!

OH MY GOD. SANTA! I KNOW HIM! I KNOW HIM!

Playing on Repeat

I like to learn things slow
I like learning a lot
I like to get it all again and in the end
You know you get what you got
I like to mean what I say
But it don't always come through
Because if I say it all again, again, again
It doesn't make it all true

And the world's like a science
And I'm like a secret
And I saw you lingering still, still
I saw you lingering still

It's all just news to me
Don't really care if it hurts
Because if I know it I won't know it
Then I know that it will only get worse
He was different at first
But then he won't understand
Because he's never going to know me
If he doesn't want to just shake my hand

And the world's like a science
And I'm like a secret
And I saw you lingering still, still
I saw you lingering still

My mom gave me Pink Elephants for my birthday.

After quite a stressful and cold day I'm feeling nostalgic for Rhode Island, warm fires and my puppies.

So What? Who Cahez?

er...Actually, I do.

(and so do Whoopie Golberg and Joy Behar)

When Bill O'Reilly came was a guest on The View recently, the conversation drifted to the recent "Mosque-at-Ground-Zero" debate and how President Obama handled himself when asked about it. O'Reilly, made some pretty ignorant comments about who attacked on 9/11 and how Americans felt about the issue--resulting in Whoopie and Joy angrily walking out of their own show.



When watching this, I got really upset--how is this even an issue? Obviously they have a right to practice their religion wherever and however they choose. Do people still have such anger and prejudice towards a whole group of people? This is America--land of the FREE.

I understand that the families of 9/11 are still grieving and that it might be hard to see the larger picture because their lives we changed drastically because of the attacks. But, the people who attacked on 9/11 weren't an entire culture, but a small, extremist, microcosm of that culture. Why should we judge an entire group of people for the actions of a relative few?

I definately wouldn't want to be judged by another country based on what Bill O'Reilly is saying--I would be totally offended.

Even more, a lot of the people who died in the attacks were Muslim--shouldn't their memory be respected as equally as those who were, say, Catholic or Jewish? Why is it so easy for "Bill O'Reilly's 70% of Americans" to respect some people who were killed, but apparently not others? O'Reilly says that he and the majority of Americans share the same view, defending the families and those who were attacked--do they see their own hypocrisy in choosing to defend and judge at the same time?

Not only does the Mosque have a right to be built there, Constitutionally, but in my opinion, a need to be built there--almost as a way of "cleansing", creating peace, and healing. I think, as Americans, we are hindering our healing process if we don't let the Mosque be built--creating more prejudice and hatred does not help anyone.

If I were on the show when Bill O'Reilly made those comments, I would have walked off too--and hopefully I would be wearing those fierce light up shoes Whoopie has on! Girl--that made your walk all the more epic!

Check out what happened after they left here

Thank goodness, Barbra said something!

Again? Really?

It seems like every Monday it is super cold and rainy--not too conducive to staying awake after pulling an all nighter, confusing myself with Rhino, for my midterm this morning. Eee!

Thank goodness for Bergen Bagel and their fabulous bagel and coffee under $2.00 before 11 am deal--I wouldn't be alive right now without it!

Memoir

So, tonight I decided that if I ever write a memoir, I will title it:

The Night I Exposed Myself on the Subway (and Other Misadventures)

Good, right? I think so.

Epic and Also Puppies!

PUPPIES! :D

A Full Buffet

"In the military is it acceptable, is it acceptable to be a cafeteria American, what I mean to say is, should soldiers and the government be able to pick and choice what we are fighting for in the Constitution? Or who we are fighting for. I wasn’t aware of this ambiguity in our Constitution. I thought the Constitution was the ultimate, I thought equality was non negotiable."

"Because I thought this was an ‘all you can eat’ buffet. This equality stuff, I thought equality meant everyone."

I am so proud of Lady Gaga. She's used her fame and popularity to stand up for her beliefs and show others that it's okay to do the same. Her speech, not only brought tears to my eyes, but pride in my fellow citizens who choose to have a voice, and not just to sit idly by; watching while important decisions are made for them.

Thank you, Lady Gaga for lending a voice to those who are forced not to have one by an outdated and unequal rule.

Equality is prime rib--that we all deserve a fair chance to eat.

via

Yes, Yes You Are.

via

Ditto.

I also say a big SCREW YOU. People should be allowed to love and be with whomever they choose. It's not someone else's right to dictate their choices.

This is an issue of equality, people. It's the 21st century. Come on.

Legit.

Think About It.

That's pretty intense. I really want to print this out large scale--it's made me think about needs vs. wants and my recent move. Obviously, I wouldn't have been able to take, well, practically any of my things if I had to abide by this circular opening to move up a few flights.

Last First.

Yesterday was my last first day of school. I'm not sure how I feel about it.

I felt like this summer, since I was working everyday, I didn't really get a break from the routine, you know, Interwebz? So I feel like I left studio only, like, 2 weeks ago and now I'm back.

My last first day of school was pretty uneventful. I woke up, showered, got dressed, ate a granola bar, went on the bookface, checked where my class was and left my apartment. No new school clothes, no new school notebooks. Just me, my old Moleskin, and a ratty pair of knock off Target brand Keds. I didn't even get the pre-first day of school butterflies in my stomache!

I did however get assigned homework. Fabz.

New Fave. Fo' Realz

This song is totes magotes my new favorite song. Like fo'realz.

It also gets stuck in your head SO EASILY.



Loves it.

sicko.

ERGGH.

Interwebz. Why must I be sick. AGAIN??? My body must know that this week I start school and is making me want to hate my life and want to sleep all the time because I can't. HATERATION.

errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Moving sucks, Interwebz. This is how I feel.

whahhhh

Stalker's Paradise

So, dahling Interwebz, I'm sure you've heard of this new crazy fad that's sweeping the nation called Four Square--right?



Well, recently when I was in Florida, my friend was "checking in" everywhere. While I had my doubts--stalkers would legit go crazypants for this--he assured me that only his friends on Four Square could see where he was checking in. Whatevah, I still was on the look out for any potential stalkers following us from Starbucks to Starbucks...

I recently came across this article from the NY Times about Four Square--chchcheck it out! It seems to be everywhere lately, making me wonder if I'm missing out on something...

The only reason I would start Four Squarin' it up, despite the stalker lovefest it's got going on, is because of its semi-competitive nature. If you visit a place more than anyone, you become THE MAYOR. That sounds pretty legit. My same friend, who walks to work, became the Mayor of the Church of Scientology in Boston just by walking past it almost everyday. {Take that Tom Cruise!} Also, if you go certain places you can unlock badges--my Four Squaring friend, who recently went for a sail, unlocked the "I'm on a Boat" badge. TPain and Andy Samburg mackin' on some mermaids and wearin' flippy floppies? In a badge form? Yes please!


But yeah, I don't have an iPhone, so I probski couldn't do any Squarin' anyway. Even if I didn't think that it was kindof, well, really creepy.

Screwed.

All of this packing up of the cave to move has got me thinking about donating a lot...like A LOT of my existing stuff to Salvation Army. I mean, who really needs 4 fans, two ethernet cords, 3-4 iPod chargers, and over 4 bins worth of clothing??

Apparently, me. Or so I thought before I actually had to pack up all my stuff. HA.

So, today, dear Interwebz, I am pretending that I've cleared out all of the stuff I don't need (installation CD's for printers that have long since bitten the dust, for example) and am fake shopping for mah new apartment at one of my most favoritest stores: Anthropologie.























Replace lots of old stuff with lots of new stuff--that's how it works right?

I am so screwed.

Scratch and...FUNKIFY.

It's like the lottery ticket of the map world! So cool--and fun! When I was little I always liked the scratch and sniff stickers, maybe this map could smell like the country after you scratch off the top layer, as well as be a fun color? Cause that would be EPIC.

I want for the new apartment, Interwebz, plz?

..WHAHHHHT??

OMG. WHHAHT?

Hilarious. I would vote for him (maybe).

In Need of a Change

So, dearest Interwebz, I think that I'm in need of a change. A somewhat drastic one.

I think that I want to cut all of my hair off. I have chopped my hair off-and donated it-before, but somehow it always takes some building of confidence to actually go to the salon to have it cut off. I'm a bit nervous to do it because my hair is so long now (and to tell you the truth, I've been putting off getting a hair cut for, like, the past year) but I keep doing the same thing with it everyday--SUPER BORING--and I feel like the longer it gets, the harder it is to control.

What do you think? Too crazypants?

Here are some photos of people with short hair--inspiration, perhaps?
