Primary Colors
Young: I HATE COLLEGE APPS.
Me: Where are you applying?
Young: Guess.
Me: Hint?
Young: It's named after a color...
Me: Uh....ugh, I don't know.....uh....Green?
Young: HAHAHAHAHAHA
Me: .....No, I'm serious. What school is this?!
Ugh. Blonde moments. Seriously.
What a poopface.
I do my best to keep in touch with people, especially people who I’m really really close to. So when my upperclassmen friends leave for college, I always remember to check in with them every once in a while. You know, just say, Hey there how’s college going? I can easily let go of talking to people who I knew but wasn’t like buddy buddy with. What I can’t let go of are...
Productivity.
Every year, winter break starts and I tell myself, “Ok. This year, you’re gonna get so much done over winter break. You’re gonna clean your room, get ahead on studying for APs, apply for summer college or study abroad programs, see all your friends, and catch up on your TV.”
Yeah…none of that ever happens.
This year, I finally accepted the fact that I...

It makes me feel loved. Like the world is a little bit more warm and fuzzy and happiness and rainbows and sunshine happy unicorns.

Think before you speak.
…Something I don’t necessarily do on a daily basis, but I’m starting to get tired of people forgetting that I can’t eat solid foods yet, especially when they’re people who I’m really close to.
Like the person who I’ve recently spent a lot of time with. Or my dad.
Honestly, I really LOVE to hear, “I was thinking after the movie on Thursday, we...

I just bought the Arthur theme song on iTunes.
But it was covered by Sons of Admirals.
I know, I know….that doesn’t make the fact that I bought it any less nerdy. Never saw this one coming.
Oh lookie here
Who might have plans for New Years for the first time in 17 years of life this year? Moi.
Ok it’s not set in stone, but we might be doing something either Thursday or New Years. Or both. Both would be nice:
Me: I’m probably with my dad Thursday night but that’s unsure. I’m with him Friday and Saturday, but Friday is New Years so even though I don’t ever do...
How we text (Valentine's Day is here early...)
S: Did you want to talk? Sorry bout the late response...my phone is weird. Call me in like 20ish minutes?
A: I can't really talk but I can type if you can get on skype later
S: Ya I can. Also I like your fb profile pic a lot. Makes you look real pretty :)
A: :) aw shucks...blush blush blush...
S: hahaha :P
Close-minded people are the worst
They’re even worse when they do a Facebook status about it. I know you’re upset about hearing the truth, but you don’t have to go and make it public that you are “now accepting congratulations only” just because someone who actually cares finally told you the truth. I know that you’re “tired of people saying [you’re] too young for this”, but...
Double dipping
I’ve never really thought twice about sharing food with friends. We do it all the time. Double dipping doesn’t bother us one bit, especially after seeing that Mythbusters episode where they busted the double dipping and germs in the dip myth. I mean, if someone at lunch orders food, they’ll be eating it and one of us will ask for a bite and then proceed to much on it off the same...
Being the voice of reason
There’s always that one friendship where you’re the voice of reason but I’m always the voice of reason.
Grow the F up. You guys don’t know what love is, you only know what hormones are. You can’t do this until you’ve seen the world a little more.
Oh and don’t be such a hypocrite next time you see us. It doesn’t help that you ruined your friendship...
I never really understood going shopping the day...
Until this year when my mom bought me a laptop shell that was too big and we had to go and return it. When I couldn’t find one that I liked, she told me to just look online. Day after Christmas shopping, I now completely understand you. And I officially love etsy.com.
Cutest laptop bag ever. :D

It's the thought that counts, right?
The day after Christmas is always pretty depressing. By this day, most people have already broken 80% of their presents, have lost them, or have lost interest in them. The presents left are usually a combination of socks, underwear, ill-fitting clothes, and that piece of fruit you find in your stocking every year but never eat. If you’re me, you’ve already blown through the $25 iTunes...

It's a Christmas miracle!!!
Happy Christmas eve all you tumblrites!!! I should be getting to bed soon seeing as how Santa doesn’t come until everyone’s asleep. And everyone says that the true meaning of Christmas lies not within a gift, but in the love and spirit of the season, but let’s be honest here. I like me some presents. Who doesn’t like new stuff? Weird people don’t like new stuff. But...

It is 3:01 am.
And I’m awake. I’ve been awake since 1:29 am when I heard the college-age neighbor boy and some other male voice who I’m guessing was his friend come home and start playing basketball in their driveway that is conveniently placed right next to my window. AT 1:29 A-FREAKING-M. Who does that?! Apparently attractive college-age neighbor boys do.
I don’t know what it is,...
Looks like it's gonna be an Australian...
It felt like a warm armpit outside all day. It was terrible. Seriously, on this, the first day of the winter solstice, my favorite solstice/equinox of all, it was 83-freaking degrees outside. What. The. Hell.
I don’t understand my city. In November, it was literally below freezing a good number of times and now it’s December 21st. 83 DEGREES. Honestly, this is why I need to leave...

Rant rant rant.
As of Friday, December 17th, I am a 2nd semester senior. Oh yeayuh bay-bee. Ignore that last sentence.
I didn’t exactly get to enjoy my last day as a 1st semester senior: I was stuck in a hospital room, hooked up to an IV, attempting to suck down any small amount of that delicious lemon ice or chocolate ice cream the food lady brought me. Well, I had to choose between jaw surgery or final...

Forget diamonds, morphine is a girl's best friend!
I’m not going to make this a very long post just because I don’t think I have the energy to do it.
Wednesday morning (the morning of my surgery) was super duper fun! How so? Oh, to begin with, the RN couldn’t find a vein in my hand to start my IV so she had to wait for the anesthesiologist lady to come do it. Now my left hand is all bruised up. Fun fun fun. My favorite part was...
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...
First of all, I’d like to state how much I absolutely abhor Christmas music. It’s not like I hate Christmas as a holiday, I hate the music that surrounds it. Maybe if it was just Rudolph or Frosty or whatever, I’d be ok with it. But I swear, if I have to hear Mariah Carey or Christina Aguilera or whoever sings that song about giving someone their heart for Christmas sing just ONE...
2 Hours of anything can make you crazy.
Me: Haha...hahaha.
Him: What?
Me: I don't know, I just keep thinking about that scene from Spiderman.
*Silence*
Me: Spiderman!!!!

"He sure knows how to romance a lady."
Today, children, we will be talking about the birds and the bees. Sort of.
I’m trying to distract myself from the true point of this post. I’ve never really liked talking about my personal life on here; I’d rather keep it pretty confined to school and whatnot. Sweet and simple, you know? We’re breaking that rule today and going into my dark and scary past of yesterday....
Gotta love me some John Hughes '80s movies
Caroline: Who's he?
Jake: That's me.
Caroline: Who are you?
Jake: I'm him.
Caroline: Oh, ok.
Unprepared...
It wasn’t a pretty day for yours truly. My hair wasn’t clean, I was wearing my pj shirt, and I had no makeup on.
I didn’t even put on chapstick or anything. I wonder how those dry winter lips felt.
Disney lied.
It was like Prince Charming coming to wake up Snow White with “true love’s first kiss”. Only Prince Charming decided to take it one step further throw in a little tongue action. What a gentleman.
Oh and there was music, but it was an obscure British indie band.
December 9, 2010 5:02 pm.
All I could think about was, “OMG WHAT IF HE HAS MONO. OR AIDS. OR A COLD?!”
Plus, I can still sorta feel everything that was transfered from him to me sitting in my mouth. Just saying.
Someone is eating my face.
Or…someone was eating my face. At precisely 5:01 pm today on this, the 9th of December.
I had always pictured that special moment as a little less weird than that.

An update for you concerned people
In case you are an AVID reader of my oh humblest of bloggy thingies-which I trust you are-you probably know about the situation involving Ashton Kutcher my beloved Nikon.
Good Great Fabulous STUPENDULOUS news peoples. Ashton returned to me, working smoothly and was happy as a clam (I’ve never understood that saying actually…). Unfortunately, the stupid repair people forgot my...

My "WTF" moment of the day.
It’s always scary when you’re working on a complicated graphic of glycolysis for your upcoming Bio test (*coughcoughTOMORROWcoughcough*) and you see the word “phosphoglucoisomerase” and go, “What thaaaa….?!”.
Just saying. It’s never a good sign.

This is possibly the most sincere apology I have ever received. So thank you and you are forgiven. For the most part. :)

T-Minus 7 Days
7 days. That’s one week…It’s 7 little days until my time as a first semester Senior is over and I head to Methodist Hospital so someone can move my jaw forward a few centimeters and put titanium plates in it. Oh the joy.
This week I’ve realized that teachers pretty much want to ruin our lives. It seems that they just said to themselves, “Oh crap, finals are next...
Like a G6
Me: Like a G6. Like a G6. Like like like a G6.
Sami: Like a G6. According to my friend who knows everything, it's a plane.
Me: It is! It's a jet plane.
Sami: Yes, but with less cup holders than a G7.
