Memes make me feel good.

You Scored an A

You got 10/10 questions correct. It's pretty obvious that you don't make basic grammatical errors. If anything, you're annoyed when people make simple mistakes on their blogs. As far as people with bad grammar go, you know they're only human. And it's humanity and its current condition that truly disturb you sometimes.

The It's Its There Their They're Quiz

So I'm a grammar nazi. Bite me! Both of my parents were teachers, so it comes naturally.

What Does Your Favorite Color Say About You?

You Are 16% Emo

You're the furthest thing from emo. Sensitivity is not something you exactly cultivate... and you can't imagine weeping over song lyrics.

Are You Emo?

But I HAVE wept over song lyrics...many a time. Stupid BlogThings.

You Are a Smart American

You know a lot about US history, and you're opinions are probably well informed. Congratulations on bucking stereotypes. Now go show some foreigners how smart Americans can be.

Are You a Dumb American?

I'm also a History major. LOL.

Anyway. It's Family Weekend here at the university so I'm just waiting for my parents to come. I'm fucking hungry and I hope they take me out to lunch. Haha. Yay for blogs to kill time with.

My friends suck.

So. My personal life just took a turn for the shitastic.

Okay, so keeping people's names private, let's have Girl A and Girl B, and Guy. Guy and Girl A dated for quite some time. Guy dumped Girl A over the summer, for reasons she didn't understand, and has been upset over for a while now. She was finally starting to move on when it comes out that Guy cheated on Girl A with Girl B a week before he dumped her, and he and Girl B have been dating secretly ever since. Shit hit the fan yesterday when Girl A saw Guy rub Girl B's leg at dinner, and then she asked someone else after she'd left, and it was confirmed.

Right now I'm just pissed at the whole lot of them, and at those who are taking sides. It is not our battle to fight. I'm just annoyed because I've been in Girl A's place, and it seriously sucks balls, so I'm naturally going to be more sympathetic toward her, but I'm trying my best not to take sides. I'm just disgusted at everyone because those of us trying to remain neutral are stuck in a bad place, and those parties involved need to act like their fucking age and talk this shit out, because all it's doing is ruining the peace and calm that we've always had. We're fucking 19 and 20 years old, not 9 and 10 years old. Why can't we discuss things like the adults we are, figure this shit out like human beings so that we can get on with life? Is that so fucking hard to ask for? Apparently to the people I know, yes.

So yeah. I'm just a wreck right now because I'm sick as a dog, my period is particularly obnoxious this month (Tuesday I had cramps so bad I couldn't move), and I have multiple exams in my classes. I really didn't need this now. None of us did. And neither Jeff Buckley nor MST3K is making me feel better. Red alert, call in the troops...

Oh, God...

So I just found out a couple of minutes ago that my best friend Tara was in a car accident last night. Apparently she was also flown to UVA Medical Center, which translates to, "she was really fucked up." Now I feel like I'm on the verge of a panic attack.

When I got the voicemail from Alissa this morning somehow I knew it had to do with Tara. Maybe because we're so close. Seriously, Tara's like my blood, my twin, and if anything happens to her I feel like I'll lose my other half.

Basically now it's just a waiting game, and trying to find people who know anything. I don't know a lot of the kids she hangs out with in the hometown, and apparently there were some others in the car too. Edits as news comes...

EDIT: Okay, so Alissa found out that Tara's in ICU. Since she's not family, she can't find out much more than that. She called the waiting room to see if Tara's parents were there yet and they weren't. I also got a hold of my Dad and he said he's going to try to find out what he can.

EDIT2: Tara's going to be fine, thank God or whomever you believe in. She broke her neck and fucked up her arm pretty badly, but she'll be coming back to the Burg on Monday. She'll have to go through multiple surgeries, but at least she's alive.

First week back

First of all, Angels in the Outfield is on TV right now and I used to watch this movie religiously when I was younger. I'm having serious nostalgia right now, but kind of laughing at how bad the special effects are and some of the lines are just cheesy as fuck. But I still fucking love this movie. It also begs the question, whatever happened to Christopher Lloyd?!

Anyway, the first week of classes are going well. I was mostly worried about my Ancient Greek class but I'm actually picking it up pretty quickly. I do have a speaking intensive class, and I was freaked out about that because I'm shy and whatever. But actually I talk in that class because no one else does and I just get fed up with the awkward silences. LOL. So yeah, I have a good feeling about this year and I think I'll definitely give my GPA a nice boost as long as I stay on top of things.

My roomie's cool too. She's RA so there are times when she disappears for a while so I get to play honorary RA. LOL. We like a lot of the same things and our roommate agreement contract was a breeze. So basically I have no complaints about anything as of now, and I'm quite happy about that.

Let's also talk about how Blockbuster's 3 movies for $20 deal kicks vast amounts of ass. I bought The Illusionist, The Departed, and Children of Men. Basically, I am quite happy and I probably am satiated in the movie department for 2007. Unless you count MST3K as movies. In that case I won't be satiated until I have all 10 seasons. LOL.

Anyway. I told some of the girls that I'd go visit them this afternoon so I'll try to pull myself away from my beloved Angels in the Outfield and be social or something. Hahaha.
