cake walks

note to self:

the best game ever invented is the cake walk game.  there is a circle made up of sheets of paper labeled with numbers on it that you walk on while music is playing in the background.  when the music stops, someone pulls a number from a bag and the winner is the person standing on that number.  and what does the winner get? a cake/cupcake.  the best part about this game? you can play over and over and over and over.  mmm

replica weapons

note to self:

don't go walking through campus with a fake gun.  people will still take it as a threat and things will get cray-cray.  today on campus a corps member just recently was issued his rifle and decided to go on a stroll through campus.  there was no intention of harming anyone but what a dumb decision on his end.  it was very impressive the rate of response that the campus had and the alerts that were sent out and thank goodness no one was harmed or was in any danger.  unfortunately, i'm sure we are going to be the butt of many jokes to come.

note to self:

you were born in the wrong decade.  when you really should have been born was the roaring 1920s.  you would have pulled off that flapper girl look so well.  i guess you'll just have to stick with being a flapper girl for halloween. geez.

be brave

note to self:

you are not good at confrontation.  you are not a fan and when it happens you tend to flee.  something you should work on is building up courage to stand up and defend.  not obnoxiously but you shouldn't live cowardly. stand up for what you believe and don't settle for anything less.  and if nothing else, all this crap you are having to go through is a brick builder for the future. hopefully it will help thicken your skin.

note to self:

going out dancing, picking up the recycling bins around downtown, and then going to ihop until 5am, sleeping for 3 hours, and then waking up at 8am to go pick up trash along the campus streams is an easy way to make your body sleep until 5 in the afternoon and still be tired. you will however look similar to ke$ha by the end of everything but this is what college is about so you would do last night all over again if given the chance.

injuries

note to self:

you really need to take better care of your body.  first you pass out at the football game and your knees are all busted up and now while opening the door to the building for class you end up slicing the first layer of skin off your toe.  next time, stand a little farther away from the door when opening it because limping around campus is not cute...you just look like you have a wedgie you are trying to undo without being too obvious

how to forget to do an assignment

note to self:

if you want to forget you have an assignment due here is what you must do. you must be lazy and watch TV. you must watch NCIS, NCIS: LA, Hawaii Five-O, Life Unexpected, Rules of Engagement, and How I Met Your Mother. yes, sure, some people may view this as being lazy but since you didn't think you had anything else better to do today you will think it is perfectly acceptable. You will remember however during class, while eavesdropping on the people around you, that there was indeed an assignment due today and all you can do is sit there and try to justify to yourself that its college and things like this happen all the time.

how to meet people

note to self:

if you want to meet a whole lot of people in a short amount of time, stand outside a main campus cafeteria saying "howdy" to everyone you meet and ask them if they like to wear tie-dye t-shirts. you will get a lot of rejections but you will also get a lot of excited people saying they love tie-dye which makes it all worth it. you will also have two wonderful guys tell you that they like tie-dye shirts on you and that they will buy one friday night...that will just make you laugh. you might however want to work on witty comebacks though instead of just smiling and saying "ok".

how to meet medics

note to self:

if you are ever thinking about going to a football game on five hours of sleep, an empty stomach from food and water for over 15 hours, and plan on standing the whole time in the sun for 3+ hours without moving much...don't. it's not a good idea.  it will result in you blacking out and getting a whole lot of unwanted attention including being strapped to a gurney and carried around the stadium with an oxygen mask on your face. unless of course you are looking to meet a couple of cute boy pre-med students, well then by all means go right ahead and pass out.

note to self:

when you try to sing in the shower you sound nothing like this.  singing louder does not equal singing better but practice makes perfect. haha just kidding. even though you don't sound as incredible and lovely, you do still sound just as passionate and really that is all that matters right? right?
