Power play

I'm super stoked about going to a hockey game this Sunday! I've been wanting to go watch a game for months now, and the Ducks schedule and mine finally match up to allow me to go watch Bobby Ryan score a hat trick against the Dallas Stars. I'm going with a friend, and this will be her first hockey game ever, it's going to be great! I bought the tickets through the USC hockey team (yes, USC has a hockey team), so I will be seated among fellow Trojans. This is especially important because my friend is on call this weekend and there is a chance that she might have to leave early from the game, or even worse not go to the game if she gets called in. Regardless, I will be at the game, but will I go alone or with my friend? We shall see...

Definite shenanigans this weekend...HUGE shenanigans! Though I can say, that he was genuinely a nice guy, and I did enjoy our little chat :D

Mums the word pt 3

Funny enough, I don't remember writing the last post. Actually the funnier part is that I didn't even drink all that much. So yes, I admit it, I'm a light weight, but enough on that.

I had a great weekend! But I would rather not go into details, they may incriminate me later, or even worse, make me realize how ridiculous and care free I've been lately.

Quotes of the night:

"Lloyd is doing a horrible job!"
"We'll sort it out in the morning."
"It would be amazing!"
"Look at this face, Dean is gorgeous!"
"Taff, you left me."

I understand that some of those quotes could be misunderstood out of context, but like I said earlier, I'd rather not go into details. I had fun though :D

Mums the word pt 2

I don't make sense, I know I don't. But I just need to say he was gorgeous! He leaves on Wednesday but that doesn't make him any less attractive. He's British you see...I've noticed that most British guys are incredibly good looking, if they are not good looking, than they still definitely have an accent to die for! I just need to say that the local scene will be lonely without our English speaking cousins.

So impossible

Not only is the title of this post one of my favorite Dashboard Confessional songs, but it is what I wonder to myself. Are things possible, or are they so impossible? We will see. It is a matter of time before we will see everything. It looks like lunch tomorrow, but if that doesn't work out let us hope Sunday at 4 does! I really don't even know what to think. This was a great night, even though it didn't start off as such. Its been a while, so I'd like to stay positive, but there is the chance of everything negative materializing. Until then, I'll dream of things so impossible...

Food wars

Anyone who has spent time with a kid during meal time has perhaps come to notice that kids are extremely picky about what they eat. If by some miracle they are not picky eaters then you may find that they have like some odd food combination. Call them brave or inventive, these are some of the food combinations I have seen*

  • pickle juice and popcorn
  • adding sugar to frosted flakes
  • a can of chicken noodle without water
  • ketchup on a bologna sandwich
  • ketchup on over easy eggs
  • chocolate milk and tortilla chips
  • french fries and mayonnaise
*I understand this list is bias because these food combinations appear strange if not disgusting to me, but they may be normal or delicious to others

Is this you?

There is a particular person in my circle of acquaintances who currently has a stick up their ass, for lack of a better term. This person's recent behavior, I believe, to be unfounded and juvenile.  In any case I can't say I'm entirely saddened by the situation.

If you think this post is about you, it means one of two things: (1) you are aware that you currently have a stick up your ass OR (2) you are egotistical enough to believe I would write about you

If you do not believe this post is about you, it means one of two things: (1) you are so full of yourself that you don't believe you've done anything wrong OR (2) the post really isn't about you, and I love you to pieces :)

Mums the word

It amazes me how fast time goes by, considering that I haven't written in about a week. Which mean I didn't tell about my weekend. Which by the way was amazing!
