Crushes Are Crushing

So, one of my other friends from my church group last year who I was really good friends with (an also had a pretty major crush on) moved away at the end of the school year. He now goes to VA Tech, and we miss him dearly every day.

Anywho, he was in town to visit for his first weekend of Spring Break, and I got it organized for everyone to eat out on Saturday night at his favorite restaurant. I really wish it hadn't been such a big crowd. I really wanted to just hang out with him. But, like I said, EVERYONE missed him, so EVERYONE showed up pretty much. Oh well, that's how it goes in the PSF family.

I knew he had to leave today to go back to VA. I was really surprised, however, that he called me and said he wanted to stop in to say goodbye. I knew this was special. I felt all fluttery inside, more than I should have though, of course. It did make me feel great to know that he thought enough of our friendship to be the last person in Auburn to see him before he left.

I wish he could have stayed, though. I wish I could have told him how I feel. I wish I could have said a lot of things. But I'm glad I didn't. I'm glad I didn't make the last few moments of his visit awkward. It's another one of those moments of me falling for someone I can't have, and not being able to change the situation. I'm not going to dwell on it though. I'm just gonna sit here and reminisce till the fluttering subsides. And then I'll go back to my normal everyday moping.

Thanks for being here, blog, so I can sit and fiddle sad songs for myself.

Why emotions win

First off, I need to say this: It's not working out, Album a Week blog. It's not you; it's me. I just don't have the motivation to maintain a regular blog. Plus, blogs are almost outdated. With the likes of Twitter, where you can share a thought and it's gone in a few days, who needs a blog? You forget what you said pretty soon, anyway. Oh, well.

I apparently only blog when I've been drinking or in a very emotional state.

Right now, I'm in both. I hate being a woman sometimes, especially on days like today when it's cold and rainy and there's nowhere to go and nothing to do. I've been sitting here on the couch most of the day watching TCM's 31 Days of Oscar. I'm loving every minute of it.

But…
It's making me realize what a lonely life I lead. I mean, I have friends, with whom I probably share too much in some cases, but there's so much they don't know. There was that previous post about my previous life experiences. Most of my "friends" don't know that. Most of my "friends" probably wouldn't care to know that.

I do love old movies though. They don't change like people do. People let you down. Most of these old movies are classics because they are reliably entertaining. Yes, I know, that some of the movies I enjoy are crap, and I know that some of the movies I don't enjoy are considered fantastic by many others, and then there's just the classics that are timeless for all. TCM shows all three: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly (and yes they occasionally show that movie too, lol). This is the first year I've had TCM on my TV. I mean, we had it in the dorm, but I didn't use my roommate Katie's TV when she lived with me because she was an evil whiny bitch… okay, that was mean, but it's true. I did enjoy my second roommate though. She liked movies too…

But, back to TCM…
This is the first time I've had this channel. I've always enjoyed watching it every chance I've had, and it was my sister's favorite channel when she was at school. I really like their programming structure and film selections (usually). And this 31 Days of Oscar thing is genius! It gives you the best of the best from different times in film history and shows obviously how tastes have changed through the years.
It shows me especially, though, how movies have skewed views on life and love.

AND this is why movies have ruined me. And why my emotions win out and I lose every time.

THE END.

A New Day Dawns Brightly

It's a new year! Time to make plans.

First, I want to say, that I am addicted to the internet. Over the Holiday break, I thought I was going to go crazy without instant access. Terrible, I know…

Secondly, this friendly competition is going around Facebook right now.

Here is how it works:

1 - Go to wikipedia and hit random. The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to quotationspage.com and hit random. The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your ...first album.

3 - Go to flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”. Third picture no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4 - Use photoshop or similar (picnik.com is a free online photo editor) to put it all together.

5 - Post it with this text in the "caption" and TAG the friends you want to join in.

WHAT FUN!!!

Then, I got to thinking. This semester I'm not going to be flexing my print design muscles as much. So, why not make this like a weekly blog post (without the tagging of friends part)?

I think it could be fun. As long as I remember to do it.

My goal is to do an album cover a week in

addition to any random blogging I may do.

We'll see how well this plays out.

Worst Possible Timing

Why the fuck did I decide to get wasted the night before my last fucking goddamned final?!? Worst decision of my life, dammit.

I am a horrible person, and I have a fucking habit of drunk texted HE-WHO-IS-NOT-TO-BE-MENTIONED-AGAIN…fuck. jkfldshdf

Why in God's name do I do this shit?

BTW…

The obsession with Bruce Cambell's still riding strong. And my cousin Dani has only fanned the flames by sending me the Burn Notice "Chuck Findley" shirt she got at ComiCon. I got it the week of Thanksgiving, and have worn it 8 times. Do the math, lol. I'm obsessed.

Also, AU Tigers are #1 in the BCS and #1 in the SEC. We won the SEC Championship game, and now it's off to National in Glendale, AZ, Jan. 10. I'm so excited! WAR EAGLE!
