i know i'm not the only one

dear tropicana,
your new easy-pour bottle is super efficient for pouring orange juice, NO DOUBT. but did you ever consider the people that don't pour their orange juice? i like to drink mine right out the bottle and this new design makes it a little more difficult.

maybe you could start two lines of juice bottles, one for the pourers and one for the lazy asses who don't want to use a cup cos then they have to wash it later.

thx.

the rest of the world is finally catching up

in yet another of my journalism classes we are "learning" how to create a blog.

now, i've had a blog since i was about 12 years old. just sayin. i've used all types of different servers, experimented with layouts, html, the whole thing. i don't need you to teach me the code for inserting a link.

and we get to write about whatever we want? really? well the girl next to me is writing about her liberal arts degree and how she changed her major after her first semester. if only my life were so exciting, maybe i'd have something to write about.

i'm just waiting for tradin lunches to get all famous so i can forget this pointless journalism degree.

going through my bookshelf

i found a thick volume entitled A Celebration of Young Poets, Michigan - Fall 2002. i had a poem published in the "High Merit Poems - Grades 7, 8, and 9" section. that means i didn't win first, second, or third place, but they felt obligated to publish my poem because I submitted it. it was kind of cool.


until i saw my typos.

mennonites use facebook, too

so during grades k-3, the public schools where we lived were low quality so my parents sent me to a private mennonite school (just to clarify: i was never a mennonite). had to wear dresses everyday to school, my teachers wore those white head coverings, the whole shebang. think of them like laid back amish people.

now one of these girls i was kinda friends with finds me on facebook and adds me. ok, kinda creepy that you remembered me and found me on there, but whatever.

NOW THEY'RE ALL ADDING ME.

and half of them are married, because really, what else is there to do out in the land of church picnics and cow manure?

i just bought a digital thermometer and im obsessed. i must take my temp about 8 times a day.

the rebel trend

i think more people take part in anti-valentine's day events than actually celebrate it.
