You Ain't Nothing But a Hounddog...

Well hello my darling Cats and Kittens...

Indeed I am still alive. (And the children rejoiced...)

So the last week has been INSANE! I took the week off (as did most of the REU kids at Rose) and went away for the week. My mom got married on Saturday, so I took the week off to help prep for and attend the wedding. The days prior to the big day were spent painting and remodeling her master bathroom, hanging things, cleaning things, and generally doing a lot of bitch work. But all was worth it and the wedding was fantastic! I still can't believe how much fun I had and how well it went. We skipped the rehearsal the day prior, but still had the rehearsal dinner with some friends and fam at Sahm's Place in Indy. The food was excellent and my Jodo and I split a bottle of yummy wine. We then proceeded to go to a bar with my sister and her boyfriend. We had good times there as well. We then proceeded to head back to John's apartment and hung out with his roommate and some of their friends. I stayed up WAY too late because of all the people and my general sleep requirements. Then the big day...

I had to get up very early (esp considering when I went to bed) and shower and dress myself and drive the half hour to the hair place for my appointment at 8:30AM. I was surprisingly energized for such little sleep... thank you dear adrenaline. I got my hair done and proceeded to the swanky mall at Keystone at the Crossing. I enjoyed some Starbucks for breakfast and then proceeded to the largest Crate and Barrel I've ever seen. I pretty much wanted to buy EVERYTHING there! I then passed a Ferrari in the mall hallway and noted the doorman waiting (clearly for me) at the Tiffany's & Co. I went through every Williams Sonoma and Restoration Hardware type store and ogled over everything. It was nice to pretend like I was swanky... and I shopped for stuff for my mom and her new husband Mike.

OH! I met the most fabulous gay at the mall. I went into the Papyrus store (stationary and other such items) to get some nice notecards and a guest book for my mom and he was the store attendant. He was dressed to the nines, and was bustling about the store singing to the pop songs on the loudspeaker and greeting the customers. He was FABULOUS! I wanted to ask him to be my gay and go to a gay bar, but alas that's not how the gays work... And thus he will always be the one that got away... HAHAHAHA!

So after shopping I finally arrived at my mom's house (also the location of the wedding) and began to help final decorating and prep. I also put on my FAB dress and shoes and had my makeup done. I'm not gonna lie, I looked GOOD! Hopefully I'll get some pictures up soon on Facebook, but I have to get them from others first. Also turns out wearing skinny heels in grass is not a good idea. Thus I basically stood on my tip toes for 45 mins to an hour. Oh my sweet baby jesus my feet hurt! But the shoes were SO hot it had to be done. I promptly changed into flip flops for the reception.

(BTW the ceremony was great and everything was wonderful, minus the fact that the preacher kept calling my mom Christina while her name is actually Christine.)

And thus the reception commenced. We arrived at the Tuscany Italian Grill (which is DELICIOUS btw) and promptly began drinking booze. (Note: the reception started at like 5pm) I began my bar tab for the evening with some Sex on the Beaches. I drank each in less than 10 mins... I then switched to Long Islands. During dinner, my sister and her boyfriend and my date John were all betting that I was going to bomb my toast/speech due to insobriety. But I knew my drunk acting skills better than they... As I double fisted with a Long Island and a glass of Champagne, I delivered my speech/toast with expert style and impact. And then my sister gave hers. By that point the alcohol was seriously hitting me.

I was then called over to the table with people (adults) from my old church to tell them how my life was going. I cursed in my head as I was pretty drunk and that was probably not the best state in which to do said task. But I put a smile on my face and made conversation.

I then went to say hi to all my mom's family and lots of people told me how good my toast was and such... At one point I was sitting with some aunts and uncles and my uncle Mike noted that I had really come out of my shell even since the last time he saw me... I thought it a little odd, as I am not a shy person at ALL! But I guess I do tend to be a little quieter around family. I then laughed to myself, as the cause of my shell removal was my little friend alcohol. I'm not gonna lie, I was REALLY drunk by this point. We danced a bit and enjoyed the festivities and I talked to a lot of the fam. I had a frickin' blast! (surprisingly) I was VERY drunk by the end, although I was still able to talk and walk pretty well despite whatever my BAC was. I admit it probably wasn't the best idea to drink so much, but I kept it together and I actually got a whole new appreciation for my family and how much I love them. So it ended up a great weekend, although now I need a break from my break...

I = le tired!

In addition to my new fam love, I discovered my new favorite alcohol of all time. It's called X-rated Fusion Liquor. Go here to check it out! It's a fusion of french vodka and blood oranges, mango, and passion fruit. It's pink, and it's fruity, and it's AMAZING! I mix it with fresh orange pineapple juice and go to alcohol heaven. It is by far my favorite thing to drink! It's a bit more expensive than I am used to, but my BAC is worth it!

Well it's lunch time and I have a bunch of meetings later, so I'm out...

With love and a smile,

Meanwhile, Rick James...

Hello Cats and Kittens-

So things are looking up! I'm finally starting to lose weight. Thank God! Turns out while depression hurts everywhere, it also makes me gain weight... I apparently would sit at the "girls that eat their feelings" table in Mean Girls... That all being said, my lifestyle change is going well and I'm much happier and have a lot more energy. I'm trying to get at least to where I was when I got back from NY for my mom's wedding. I don't know if I'll be able to get there in a month, but I'm gonna make a valiant effort and get as close as I can. No matter where I get, I'm just going to keep going and get to where I've wanted to be for years.

In other news my job is going surprisingly well. All of them, in fact. So turns out I have 4 jobs this summer... I'm kicking ass and taking names in my research, which feels amazing! I've somehow become the chemistry heavyweight (HAHA-no pun intended) in the lab. I forget just how much chemistry knowledge and lab know-how I do have. Turns out I'm a gigantic nerd, but it works to my advantage. I started tutoring yesterday, and I think I might actually continue that all summer. I originally thought that this pre-med student at Xavier (home for the summer and taking O Chem at ISU) was just scared about taking the class from all the nasty things she's heard about it. But I think she's actually tutor-dependent and may actually need me for the summer. With all of O Chem in ~8 weeks, that's a LOT to process, so extra income for me. O Chem I seems so far ago, and it seemed extremely hard at the time. But now it's like child's play... I actually enjoy tutoring again.

I'm also summer RA for Skinner. My residents pretty much kick ass. Well at least they've been amusing and entertaining thus far. My new suitemates kick ass too. We're having crazy amounts of fun!

I'm also apparently going to be working in Hatfield a bit too, but we'll see how that goes. I'm excited to be able to work there again in the fall. My research cuts WAY down next year, which while it means a paycheck cut (sadness), it also means I'll have a lot more time for other things (HOORAY!).

I need to go dress shopping for my mom's wedding. I know what I want it to look like, so the trick is finding one that fits my fantasy. Also, I need to write a kickass speech for the reception. Any suggestions?

I've decided to go to bartending school and get my bartending license (actually I'll be a licensed mixologist). The only problem is the schools are in Indy. So I've decided to go over fall quarter break. There's one near my mom's house. I'm super excited. It's something I've been thinking about for a long time now...

Alas it is time to get back to my data analysis... Toodles...

With love and a smile,

My Anecdote: The other night my new roomies and I were discussing the advantages and hilarity of Carmen Electra's Aerobic Strip Tease work-out video collection. After a rousing conversation (rousing being the best possible wordchoice), I went back to my room to check my email. Meagan came in and leaped around in what is a very large empty space in the middle of my room, as I have rearranged furniture and belongings to give myself a work-out space. She exclaimed, "Wow! There is so much room in here!"... And I agreed and I had a GENIUS moment where I realized that I could build a gigantic fort in my room... Then I joked and said that I could do some Carmen Electra strip tease in my tent. To which Amanda noted, "You could pitch a lot of other tents doing that!"

I hope I'm not afraid of heights...

Hello Cats and Kittens-

So it's been quite a while... Here's to anyone that still reads these... (Hello Sami and Jess... oh and Ritz)...

Well school is finally over, and thus the worst time in my life is over. I have never sunk like I did this last quarter. Most of you really had no idea the extent to which I've failed. Why? Because I've hidden it from you. There are really only a couple people that know some of the bits and pieces. I'm not proud of what I've done and how I've acted. Suffice it to say I have learned a lot about myself and what I want/need in the last several weeks. I hope to never repeat this part in my life.

In other news today I went to Danna's wedding. The ceremony was nice and the reception was a ton of fun do to the people I partied with... The evening came to a halt as I turned onto campus and looked up to see flashing police lights behind me. I was "caught" doing 56 in a 45 on Wabash. (You know, where EVERYONE goes at least 60?)... So I get my license and attempt to find Bander's registration, as he is more than shithoused in the backseat of his car and I was DD'ing... So it took us at least 10 mins to locate said registration... And in the process Bander is ID'ed for being drunk and the cop has asked how much I have had to drink (less than half a shot a long time before driving and after a LOT of dancing which means I had basically metabolized it) and how old Brittany McGowan (our other passenger) was and how much she had had to drink (nothing). So the cop went to check on the vehicle and my driving record... He comes back and breathalyzes Brittany and myself and gives me a warning... First time for both Brittany and myself... It was special...

Bander has not faired the evening well... he's had a love-hate relationship with his bathroom the whole night...

I went to the bars with Sarah and Mags last night for Jeff's 21st... I had a TOTAL BLAST! Honestly it was one of my most fun bar nights... Also it was kinda sad that I got pretty drunk on two Long Islands... Although it makes for a cheaper evening! *DING!*

Sometimes I think I am completely insane... Well maybe not completely, but yeah...

I wish I could stop thinking about boys... It would make life so much easier.

I have a LOT to accomplish before July 7th. Here's to total lifestyle changes.

Also a thousand points to Mags for remembering where I had drunkenly strewn my purse last night. I was definitely freaking out today...

A word to the wise for all of you... If you're moving a bed on campus (that is the school-provided beds) exercise some caution. If the metal bed frame comes crashing down onto the bridge of your foot, it hurts like a bitch! A cranky, PMS'ing, crazy bitch. I think I might have broken something. There are two silver-linings. First, I was drunk at the time, and thus the pain was not as intense as it could have been. Two, I will have fun watching it turn various disgusting colors. (It's the scientist in me I guess.)

So before I came to college, I was a really guarded person, especially with physical interaction. I don't even mean the scandalous kind, even just hugging or having your arm around my shoulders, etc. Just like a lot of other things, that changed a lot when I came to Rose. I just was able to open myself up and became a fairly affectionate person. It's weird how much you can miss that interaction when it's gone. I miss being held. I can't believe how strong the ache is for that simple act.

I wish things would go my way for once...

Parts of Danna's wedding/reception really made me think and obviously be a bit emo. I really wish I could turn off my brain or even just my heart sometimes.

Are my suspicions true? I hope they are...

With love and a smile,

50 mL is just over a shot...

Well adoring audience... I'm still alive...

It's been a rough few weeks, but I've made it...

And as the dust settles from the last few weeks, some good things have surfaced: I should be getting my research position for the summer again, and thus the Haute will be graced with my presence again for the summer. I have obtained a real couch to replace my shitty futon, that I may or may not choose to make-out on. (Inside joke to all you people saying WHAT?!) It's grilling time again! I have grilled dinner for the last 3 days, and I'm gonna repeat today. IT'S SOOOO GOOOD!!!! And T minus 1.5 days till I find out about RA.

So I was going to get shit-faced on Friday and properly celebrate my birthday, however I am saddened to realize I have too much work to do. I will of course be an integral part of the celebration, but I will not be partaking as I once was... *sad face*

I am stoked for our AXS cookout this weekend... And I AM WICKED STOKED about getting AXS flasks and shot glasses. We will be getting engraved 8oz flasks and double shot shot glasses with volumetric increments like 50mL beakers. Yeah, we're THAT cool!

I'm out...

The Everything Test

    There are many different types of tests on the internet today. Personality tests,     purity tests, stereotype tests, political tests. But now, there is one test to rule them all.

    Traditionally, online tests would ask certain questions about your musical tastes or clothing for a stereotype, your experiences for a purity test, or deep questions for a personality test.We're turning that upside down - all the questions affect all the results, and we've got some innovative results too! Enjoy

Personality

You are more logical than emotional, more concerned about others than concerned about self, more atheist than religious, more dependent than loner, more lazy than workaholic, more traditional than rebel, more artistic mind than engineering mind, more idealist than cynical, more leader than follower, and more introverted than extroverted.

As for specific personality traits, you are intellectual (87%), romantic (86%), adventurous (80%), artistic (66%).

Stereotypes
College Student	88%
Old Geezer	83%
Young Professional	82%

Life Experience
Sex	21%
Substances	30%
Travel	28%

Politics
Your political views would best be described as Liberal, whom you agree with around 36% of the time.

            Socioeconomic
            Your attitude toward life best associates you with Middle Class.            You make more than 0% of those who have taken this test,            and 77% less than the U.S. average.

If your life was a movie, it would be rated G.
By the way, your hottness rank is 55%, hotter than 78% of other test takers.

Saving the World One Shot at a Time...

HOLLAH!

So let's see... I'm still alive, turns out...

So the basics: The quarter is over. And hopefully one thing will be fixed, but the quarter went well. I don't really want to talk about it anymore. The last week and a half have been a hellish marathon. It's done now.

I'm chilling in the Haute over break. At first thought, I thought it was going to be a good idea (and I still have hope that the rest of the week will be better) but it hasn't been what I thought so far. I think starting tomorrow it will get better.

I've already made dinner for two different people this week... I'm going to attempt some new cooking this week too... I've feeling culinarily adventurous.

Note: Drinking and playing Wii is always a good idea...

On to the real topic of this post:

So TLC gave video cameras to a selection of 20 American children with which to document their lives. I think it's absolutely brilliant. From the moment I saw the first advertising for the show, I thought it looked amazing. I got to watch my first episode tonight. I can't even describe how amazing it is. It is by far one of the most intelligent and original pursuits by a main stream organization. IT IS BRILLIANT!

So I was shopping online for a dress for my mom's wedding today. All I learned was that Amazon considers skanky role-playing lingerie to be "Party and Evening Wear Dresses"... After thinking about it for a while I understood. Evening Wear... Get it? ...Shout out to Mags and Rambo for sharing and enjoying the experience with me...

I am completely addicted to How I Met Your Mother, The Class, and Heroes.

I think 1st Wok MSG'ed me today... I think it will cure my addiction for a while. My bank account might thank me...

I loved Catch and Release. Kevin Smith is wonderful.

I love stand up comedy. I love it from all backgrounds... every racial background, gender, and sexual orientation. I know that's a little weird, since my personal experience is fairly limited considering, but I really do love and relate to some of it all. I find it fascinating, wonderful, and brilliant.

Seeing as how my sleep schedule is totally fucked up right now, I can say that the quality of television decreases exponentially after 2am. I saw two very amazing things tonight. I saw the beginning drama of an infomercial for a pillow. It was indescribable. It included the ghosts of buckwheat, feather, and foam pillows. Yes. I'm not kidding. And then I enjoyed watching some bad science before I changed the channel. Later on, I saw an extended commercial for a male enhancement product called Extenze. A doctor (who founded a medical research company of his name's sake and created said product) came on screen and said that as a doctor he was committed to the improvement of male and female sexual enhancement. The exact phrasing and complete TV segment was amazing. It included a husband giving his wife a pamphlet on the product to explain to her why he got it. He told her Eztenze was a natural male enhancement product. To which she responded, "what, something to make your muscles bigger?" -as she motioned toward his biceps... And he said "no... natural male ENHANCEMENT" as he motioned toward a visual aid in the pamphlet. The wife responded wide-eyed with "that IS male enhancement!" You should watch said commercial.

So I decided I should share some of my last biochem take-home test with the world. (I promise you will enjoy this even if the word chemistry makes you bleed from the head...) So there is a fairly famous problem in the chemistry world that circulates around once you get past a certain level. Basically, if you ingest methanol (which is converted into formaldehyde in your body and is therefore very obviously toxic) you are supposed to ingest a lot of ethanol (aka ALCOHOL) to counteract the effects of the methanol. So your saving grace (if you're stupid enough to ingest it in the first place) can be that bottle of scotch, whiskey, vodka, or whatever (pick your poison)--get it? HAH! Anyway... so our final biochem take home test asked the following:

"You are lost in the woods in a snowstorm, and find a cabin. The owner of the cabin tells you that, as you kncocked on the door, he drank 90 mL of methanol by mistake..."

The question asks of course why ethanol ingestion would work--I'll spare you the biochem crap. But the final part of the question states that you have a certain volume of expensive Scotch and asks if you can save the life of the owner of the cabin and if you will have any alcohol left for yourself. I had the most fun I've ever had in biochem doing this problem. I'm serious. I'm not sure if it was because I felt like I was saving the world with alcohol, or if even the mention of alcohol brought good times to mind, therefore making the experience more copasetic, but it was awesome. I figured out that I had to immediately give the cabin owner just over 16 shots of Scotch to save his life, and that I would have just over a half shot left for myself. I ended the problem by saying that I may have saved a life, but clearly the owner of the cabin had committed a HUGE party foul.

Here's to saving the world, one shot at a time...

With love and a smile,

My new ringtone is Under Pressure by Queen and David Bowie... I am AWESOME!

Hey Cats and Kittens-

I know it's been awhile since I've posted... I'm alive, I swear!

Well let's see... What's going on with me?...

Well the biggest change is that I have a boyfriend. That's right folks, we are facebook official. Apparently everyone and their mother has been waiting for Pat and I to hook up. (Especially Maureen, who I love!)

I participated in the 24-hr Theater Festival this past weekend. It was CRAZY!!! But it was AWESOME!!! Dr Thom is my hero. (and I GUESS kudos to Aydrian... haha... good job!)

Things are actually going really well for me right now. It's a combination of a lot of things, and contrary to what you might think, most of it has nothing to do with the fact that I'm in a relationship. I would like to thank Jeff, Maureen, and Erin for everything they've done for me over the past several months.

I had grand visions of writing something entertaining and of merit... and I've a-d-d'ed on you and gone to do other things instead... Cheers...

Groundhog Day: Where Each Day Frustratingly Repeats Itself...

So this week was interesting...

The most interesting commentary came from a one David P. Bander. I told him my mom was getting married... and he asked me if it was to a man or a woman...

This of course spurred laughter and shocked responses... To which he responded, "I know a lot of lesbians, and you seem like you could come from a lesbian..."

Thanks David... that's why we're friends...

I MADE PRESIDENT OF AXSIGMA!!!!!

After much thought and analysis, I have decided on yet another priority shift... I am going to go for RA again, with my hope for a spot in A-Res. What I'd really love is to get Erin O's floor... I am also going to try for RHA president, with my darling Kristen taking my office. This is so not where I thought I would be... But honestly, it's what I feel I need to do. I'm not ready to give it up yet. It's also all very doable.

So I put myself out on a limb this past week... And here's the thing... I'm like Punxsatawny Phill and I am about to see my shadow and go back in my hole for another 6 weeks of winter. And by 6 weeks, I mean what feels like an eternity... I hope it's spring instead...

Today I was CRAVING sushi... which was completely weird... So I went to Baeslers and came back with sushi (which was DELISH!), oreos, and a Cosmo magazine. I am awesome...

"But do you honestly think [humans] can run the planet as well as cows? I mean you would never see the holsteins enslaving the geurnsies because of 'the white cow's burden!'"

Kudos to me on being the BEST GIFT GIVER EVAARRR! At least until I get Mags present!

Enough revelations for tonight...

With love and a smile,
K 2 the AREN

My Anecdote: So Tues night, Erin O convinced me to go out to The Verve (a bar in the Haute) to listen to some Rose guys perform. I enthousiastically agree, as I FREAKIN' LOVE Erin O... So she agrees to DD, since I did last time. Now my intention was to have one maybe two drinks and just hang out... Turns out Long Island Iced Teas were the drink special... It was a little weird at first, as the bar was full of Figi's and I had limited experience hanging out with them in the past. So I sipped (maybe more than sipped) my first large long island and enjoyed the music and chatted with my fiance... By the end of the first drink, I was buzzed... by the end of the second, I was having a GOOD time... By the end of the third, I was having philosophical conversations and getting Erin O a date. Needless to say I don't remember the vast majority of the ride home (which went several places as we were driving many different off-campus kids) because I was passed out in the front seat. Cheers to my 'Nita and Elaine and everyone else who was there to laugh at my drunken antics...

I Had a Lover's Quarrel With the World

"Well the really pathetic part was that I used to make up memories about myself, like parents got lots of stories about their kids. You know like, "Wasn't it cute when Suzie couldn't say 'supercali-' fuckin... whatever." I mean people remember a lot of weird shit, like you probably got a ton of stories about your kids, right? ... Well I kinda thought that like maybe I used to do some cute or funny stuff when I was little, but the truth is, nobody was there watching were they?"

... I wish I could turn off my brain already. It would make things a lot easier. This past week has turned me upside down and inside out. Despite all its curve balls, it was one of the best weeks I've had in a very long time. But alas, with good things come questions... at least that's what's been my experience.

So I found out my mom is getting married... in July. I am really happy for her and Mike.

I was going to write a lot more... but I actually got distracted by my hw and did most of it... BAH!

Night kids...

Under This Shirt Lives A Beautiful Woman...

So I suppose I should post for all my Cats and Kittens-

There's a lot that I could say about everything that's been going on with me-most of which almost none of you know about-... But to be quite honest, I'm not ready to yet. Suffice it to say I'm trying...

As the new year has rolled around, it got me thinking about the last year and what resolutions I had for this year. To be quite honest, this past year has blown with a few highpoints. I don't really want to dissect it anymore, so I will focus on the good points:

I changed majors. I am actually ROCKING being a Chem major. I made the Dean's list last quarter and I am really liking delving into my major and FINALLY wrapping my mind around things I've only had a vague understanding of previously. I might bitch and moan about my work and my classes, but truth be told I actually find it really interesting...

I turned 21, and my birthday was AMAZING!!! We'll just leave that one there...

I lost a LOT of naivete. This is the most negative of the three. Truth be told, I got hurt a lot this year. However I think I needed those things to happen and that I needed to learn the lessons that I did.

I really reconnected with some old friends. And I hope to be adding another one to the list soon. We'll see how that goes...

...And that was my 2006...

So my hopes for 2007...

Once again it's to get myself back to a healthy state. I know I had this as a goal last year, and overall I made a lot of progress, but I went on and off with it all year. I'm still not back to where I was in NY, and that is my goal. I don't think I have ever felt that good. I want to get back to where I was and then take it to the next step. I have been trying this for the last month or so, and I think I'm finally to the point where it's gonna work. There's a lot at stake for me here...

Long story short: Fix things.

Focus on the things that I really want to do... I am undergoing yet another priority shift. I have decided not to continue on RHA exec this next year and that I will likely not be super involved in it next year. I want to be AXSigma MA (which is our president). I am going to be putting a lot more energy into my fraternity because I really love it. I put a lot more energy in this last year, and I can't wait to give more! I just want things to be "simple" and "easy" for my senior year.

Oh my God... I'm gonna be a senior... Ok, one step at a time, I still have half my junior year left.

So I was bored the other day and generated the following to which I now should respond:

In 2007, chemkek resolves to...

Keep my science clean.
Volunteer to spend time with tools.
Start a music fund.
Give up movies.
Spend more time with my toolish jokes.
Admit my true feelings to argen.

Argen: I didn't like the goatee, but I like that you tried something new. I still have not forgiven the state of MN for stealing you, and for soon stealing Zach and Aydrian... and sometimes Gage. I guess I can only cope by coming and visiting sometime! Also, I'm excited you're coming back for 24-Theater Festival! On a related note, I am sad you will not be coming to see our shows this Fri and Sat... I hope you're having a good time and that things are going well for you!

EVERYONE SHOULD COME SEE MY SHOW THIS FRI AND SAT IN HATFIELD!!! I directed The Whole Shebang, which is going to be fabulous, as are the other 4 shows showing with it!!!

I am SUPER stoked for my JoDo and my Sarah to come visit this weekend!!!!!!!

Mozart and the Whale is my new favorite movie.
