Currently Listening Hopes and Fears By Keane Somewhere only we know see related

This is absolutely crazy. I never thought that i would grace xanga with my presence ever again, but here i am.... completely humbled by my immense boredom. Lol so i'm really not that bored, just umm... well it's a long story.  Being home is a completely different world for me, and not having a car to be able to get away from it for a while is driving me crazy (haha no pun intended).  I know home is my mission field right now, but it's such a burden because i feel like i'm the only one who can make a difference.  I really miss my fellow HPU-ers.... i never realized what a huge encouragement they are to me! It's hard not having anyone here to pray with me and keep me accountable. BUT i will keep on trucking! Anywho, for those of you still out in the xanga world, keep me and my fam in your prayers...!  Besides the home life, everything's going pretty good. I'm working at the gap and i really like it.... the people are really fun and energetic (perfect for this girl's personality).... and i also met a girl who's a new employee, AND she's a christian! Yay.

Well, i think i'll end this random post with a new discovery of mine: Rascal Flatts was not the first group to record "The broken road" song! Crazy, i know. I was listening to an old cd from the 90's the other day, and all of a sudden that song came on. My first reaction was, well, of anger towards rascall flatts for stealing the song that would eventually make them famous.... but then i realized that they probably got the song license from the original writers.... so it's all good. Anyway... if you're intrigued by this story, i think the name of the original singer was Jamie Slocum. You should check it out.

Currently Listening Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince - Greatest Hits By DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince Haha.. ok not really see related

Can i get an encore?

So get this... the Fresh prince of bel-air is now on Nick at Nite! How crazy is that? I remember watching Nick at Nite when i was little, and shows from my mom's era were on (ie: Laverne & Shirley, Happy Days)... gaw but now, it's all the shows i watched as a kid! This is almost like a mid-life crisis for me... but... not. I came to this realization when i was randomly staying up late (RANDOM, i know ), and watching the show... and then when it went to commercial, the little nick at nite icon popped up. So scary i must say. We're getting old, college peeps.

Anyway, to continue on with my FP of BA discovery... that show was tremendously Grrreat (said in tony the tiger voice)! Sadly, i ended up watching the last show, or the "finale" as so they say... it's when all the kids move out for college/career, and the house sells to the Jeffersons, ironically. Despite the fact that the last show was extremely funny, i felt really emotional when it ended! It was gone. There will never ever be any more FP of BA. No sequals, no nothing.... happy birthday. So sad... there isn't even any season DVD's that i could reminisce in for thoughtless hours. But there will be no tears for me, no sir, i'm going to tough it out like Uncle Phil would.

FP... Come... home!

Have you ever watched the advertisements that stream across the top of your xanga? That's a rhetorical question, obviously. But really... today i was on my computer and i kinda zoned out and started to get *hypnotized* by watching those things! One of the ads said "Are you jealous? Take our quiz to find out!" Hmm... you know what... i'm pretty sure i'm not, in fact, jealous, and if i was, why would i take a stupid quiz to confirm my raging jealousy? Argh.  Then the next banner comes on... "Are you depressed?"

My answer: Why so many freakin questions?

And yes, to answer your question mr. computer-banner-thing, i am depressed. I'm depressed because ad executives can't even come up with a hint of creativeness for their ads. I'm sure they brainstorm in their cubicle for hours and then excitedly jump out of their leather chair, yelling "I got it! I'll ask a question!" Then the whole office erupts with singing and rejoicing, while the "question" genius is taking a victory ride on his colleagues' shoulders. Oh life.

Why can't all ads be like Geico's? They are made with pure genius! They make me laugh, they make me cry, they make me laugh and cry simultaneously. Ohhh world... that is it. When i grow up, i'm going to be an advertisement critic. Hopefully one day i'll be as cool and smooth as Ebert and Roeper... one day, one fine day...

Currently Listening Can You Hear Us? By David Crowder Band I need you see related

Man. I lost all my e-prop-ers when i got a new xanga! Oh well, i must suffer the consequences of having stalkers. JK. Anywho... I hope i'm not the only one who misses brownwood like heck! I never thought i'd miss Bwood, the town that has only 1 walmart. I guess i got over that fact. When i get back, i'm going to hug every single one of you for ten seconds... and then move on with my life lol.

So i have this to-do list, you know, of things that need to be done before i leave SA. Well, it seems like hardly anything ever gets accomplished, even though i've had nothing to do in the past 5 days! Argh. I think that's going to be my new years resolution: never procastinate, and never be lazy. Someone please wish me luck with that one!

Oh and i have some news that made me excited for some odd reason... I was driving past this street & saw a new little building being built. It was the most hideous building i've ever seen! It's walls were orange and teal, which made me want to sneeze or something.... but then i realized that it looked familiar, and it clicked... it looked just like bahama bucks! Yeah, and then another thing clicked... Brownwood is not the only town that has bahama bucks... So yes, a few seconds later i saw the construction sign on the other side of the building saying "Bahama Bucks coming soon". At that a moment i felt like a genius and an idiot simultaneously; A genius for putting 2 & 2 together (orange + teal = what in the world? Oh yeah... bahama bucks) and an idiot for not realizing that fact in the first second of seeing the hideousness.

Well, my friends, that's my awesome life summed up in a few paragraphs! Now all that's left to do is to leave a fabulous e-prop... i know you have it in you to do it. So just do it. Nike.

God Bless the new year!

I'M SICK.

Sad times... and i know i got sick from some random kid visiting santa. Hopefully i'm getting over it pretty quickly, i only sneeze like 44 times a day now.... ARGh.

But besides the cold/flu thing i have going on, i'm superbly relieved that i have nothing to do! No job. No homework. No tests! Heck yes. But i do need to get on the ball with buying/selling my textbooks.... hmm... oh man and i also have to finish that Go now missions application (Dum dum dum)! Ok so i have some things to do... but i can still sleep in forever.

Sleep... sounds good... i think i'll do that right about... NOW.
