The One with the Bad News
Back in October, my dad was offered a new position at his company that would have him transfer to Wisconsin. But Dad turned it down.
So then they revamped the offer and presented it to him again. And once again he turned it down.
But the company my dad works for just couldn’t take the hint.
After another revision, they offered it again. And this time he accepted.
I had known about it...
The One with the Dream
I had this awesome dream last night that it was last year again and I was still in high school. And for some reason the cast of Friends was there, at my school, at the end of the day. So then I went up to Matthew Perry and I was talking to him like we were old friends. And then Matt LeBlanc offered to give me a ride home in his silver convertible (no idea if that’s what he drives in real...
The One with the Flashback: Hell Project
Breathe.
Just relax. Stay calm.
Contain yourself. Don’t get too excited. You really shouldn’t even be excited about this in the first place; it’s a school project.
So just pretend. Pretend that you haven’t been thinking about this all week. Pretend that you actually retained some of the story you just read. It doesn’t matter that you really didn’t, we only...

The One with the Christmas Loot
First of all, I hope everyone is having a merry Christmas. Or a happy holiday, to be politically correct.
And I want to say that this Christmas kicks last Christmas’ ass!
Well, mostly. Last Christmas was kind of sucky because my parents decided to redo all the flooring upstairs at the time. With all the disarray that caused, they didn’t want to break out the Christmas decorations....

The One that Makes Life Worth Living
Apparently, UM has this thing where they give each semester a theme. The first theme of my college life was “What Makes Life Worth Living.”
This all sounds a lot more exciting than it actually is. See, when I first heard about it, I thought maybe that meant we would only have to do stuff that we felt made life worthwhile. That would have been great. Just think, if we were ever...
The One with the Upcoming TV Shows
I was glancing over some of the new shows set to come out this winter and found two items of interest.
Yeah, I still don’t think I understand what this is supposed to be about. And apparently they don’t have very high hopes for it. But, come on, it’s Matthew Perry. How can I not watch it?
Now, I think this sounds like it might be kind of awesome. (I like TV about TV.)...
The One After the First Semester
Well, we did it. We made it through the semester. It’s over now.
THANK FREAKIN’ GOD.
Not that it wasn’t a good semester, because it actually was; for all of the difficulties UM has given me, they did bless me with a fairly chill first semester. But I was definitely ready for it to be over.
Towards the end, there, it got kind of trying. And finals was uber-stressful, of course....
This girl on Facebook … She’s from my high school, a year or two younger than me. I don’t really even know who she is. BUT SHE POSTS FRIENDS STUFF.
The One Before the Linguistics Final
To make studying for linguistics more exciting, I took screenshots of some of the weird crap that was in the notes.
Here we go!
Perhaps a clue as to what we will have to do for this final?
I don’t know why.
I would have had this done on my parakeet, but my dad built a shed over the spot where we buried her.
And why did everyone from Gilligan’s Island have all of their...

The One with the Gingerbread Houses
So, the first half or so of today sucked.
There was linguistics (see previous posts), then after that, I watched all the classes I’d had lined up to register for fill up within an hour. Then there was astronomy lecture. Meh. Then I toured the residence hall where I think I might stay next year. Meh again. Then I went back to the apartment to overhaul my schedule. But then some of the new...

The One Where the End is Near
So, today is basically my last day of class for the semester. Officially, Monday is the last day of class for the semester, but I don’t actually have class then.
So now, I have a final on Monday and a final on Wednesday, and then I’ll be free to go.
Time needs to move faster.
Except no, because there are still a lot of things I need to do. Like:
STUDY!
return the textbooks I...
“Pennsylvania Dutch chicken soup almost makes up for the nightmare that was...”
The One with the Fanfic Ideas
So, I decided I really want to get back into fanfiction. Because, believe it or not, I haven’t actually written a whole lot for Friends.
You know, aside from Insomnia Café. But that is on hiatus.
It’s been kind of a shock, going from writing around two thousand words a day to writing virtually nothing. Of course, during NaNoWriMo, that was when all the plot bunnies were attacking...
“I love how the closed captions on my TV describe Janice’s laughing as...”
The One while Tumblr was Down
So all yesterday and today it was like:
And then it came back up and I was like:
But then later it was like:
And then I was like:
The One with the Weekend
TUMBLR IS BACK UP!
Thank God!
Of course that had to happen when I wanted to make an awesome post about my weekend since I’ve only been reblogging Friends Secrets recently. But yeah …
Anyway, I was happy because I had thought my weekend was going to suck, because I had no plans aside from studying. But I was so wrong.
(If you hate when people just post about their lives, just leave...

By that logic, Friends loves me. =)
The One with Friends on Yahoo
Mentions of Friends in Yahoo slideshow things:
With the way I take screenshots, you would never guess I have a paper due tomorrow. XD
The One with the November Aftermath
So you’ll all be glad to know that November is over, and with it comes the end of National Novel Writing Month.
Which, by the way, I TOTALLY WON.
My first successful year. *sheds a tear*
My novel is titled Quintessence. It was about this girl Dana and her disastrous senior year of high school. That summary makes it sound stupid, and I’m sure...
