Come again?

So there are rumors that New Kids on the Block, the boy-band of the ’80’s, is launching a come-back. Hmmm… I loved NKOTB when I was what, 10 years old. And I can appreciate a good boy band song now and then. But I’m not sure that a come-back is such a grand idea. It seems like bands, singers, actors, etc, can’t just let a good thing rest. Why not rest on your laurels? I mean, I know you’re not supposed to generally, but what is a come-back going to do really? Most likely subject them to ridicule, maybe sell a few records and make some cash (the primary objective I’m sure) and make a few 20-something year old girls hearts a flutter. I don’t want to sound mean here, and I did really like them, even went to their concert, but honestly, Danny, Jon, Jordan, Joey, Donnie….let it go.

Icky snow

It snowed last night. And we’re supposed to get more Ick. And the library where I study has icyroads and haven’t sanded them yet so that’s a no-go today. I am missing the rain I must confess. But I miss the sun even more. That’s why I can’t wait for Major City. Even though there’s been record rainfall there, it’s better than snow!

Yeah yeah yeah

My nephew is over visiting. He’s 7 going on about 16. Says things like, “So long,” and then goes out of the room to surf YouTube for Michael Jackson videos… He’s so cute that I can’t resist pinching his little cheeks, which of course he hates. Tells me to “knock it off Auntie B”. I called him over to look at some old pictures of when he was 2-3 and he’s like “Yeah, yeah, yeah.” I know one day he’ll be a surly teenage boy but I hope he’ll still be the sweetheart that I know now.

Grow up

So this girl that I went to grad school with has always been shady. I don’t really know how to explain her, but she’s so fake. And she hated the fact that I was closer friends with a few girls than she was. I know this sounds a little dramatic, but she did certain things and said things that just made it very clear that she thought of me as competition. For example, always taking credit for my ideas and things I said. Why I don’t know. She’s a little immature and tends to say things that aren’t socially acceptable. Anyways, so she lives in the Windy City and I saw her a few months ago and all that fake nicey nicey was still there. Ugh. But I just let it go and was super nice to her. But not fake. So my point here is that, on myspace I lost a couple of friends and I wasn’t sure who had deleted me or their account. Just by coincidence I saw that she still had an account and I wasn’t allowed to see it because it was private, therefore, it was clear that she had deleted me. So I headed over to Facebook and saw that she was still my friend. So being petty and pissed off, I deleted her. And then I saw that my cousin deleted all my wall posts on Facebook. So being totally pissed off by this point, I took a break on myspace and changed my privacy settings on Facebook. I’m about 2 steps away from deleting them both and the only reason I’m not is because there are certain people who only stay in contact with me through these “social networking sites.”

So yeah, grow up M.

Time flies when you’re not having fun

So this week by too fast for my sense of well-being. Only 4 weeks ’til the bar exam! Yikes. Ugh, I’m so sick of talking and thinking about this test. I just can’t wait for it to be mid-March and I’m on my way to Major City.

So when I have overwhelming stress going on in my life, I like to divert my attention to something of no consequence and stress out about that. For the first few weeks of studying, I obsessed over finding the perfect under-eye concealer. Who knows why but I did. I finally settled on YSL Touche Eclat, but I’m not 100% convinced that I can’t live without it.

So now I want a new cell phone. This is dangerous territory. For one, my current phone is perfectly fine. In fact, it’s the only cell phone I’ve ever had that hasn’t given me problems. But it’s just…boring. I want an iPhone dang it. I want my ipod, gps (i think), internet and phone all in one. But there are problems: no money to actually buy one ($300+ is too much right now) plus I’m in my contract until oh next February. Another year of Sprint! I could buy a new phone, but unfortunately their phones suck and I don’t want to get sucked into another stupid 2 year contract. So therefore, I will have to find a new obsession to distract me from studying. Hmm….

10 more months of this?

So here in the US the nastiness of the presidential election is in full swing already. And it’s only January! 1o more months of this? Enough of the bashing, name-calling, blaming, etc. Ugh. This is why people don’t like to discuss politics. I know they’re just trying to win votes, but I wouldn’t vote for someone who acts like they’re in high school. Sorry, not going to happen. Grow up, say how you’re going to fix this mess of a country and move on. Good thing the candidate I like isn’t too much of a trash talker…

And I wish the writer’s strike would end. Television is just ridiculous. I’m an Ugly Betty fan but tonight’s show made me wish I’d just studied for the hour. I think I lost some brain cells by watching it.

Ok, end rant.

Stressed

Ok, I am soooo unbelievably stressed out right now. This bar prep is driving me mad. I just don’t know how I’m going to learn it all and cram it in my head in the next 4 weeks. The bar I did last year was different although I was still stressed, if not more, as it was my first time.

And it’s not helping that my family is harassing me to do stuff around the house. Sorry, washing the floor is just not as important as learning the exact phrase of personal jurisdiction, ok? Or my friend M. who tells me that I need to study more. More than 8 hours? Physically impossible for me. My brain shuts off and I get antsy.

I know I can do it, sometimes I just don’t want to. I think I’m going to go see a movie tomorrow morning and then hit up the library. Oh and I have a weird stalker at the library who stares at me constantly. And then there’s the weird lady who won’t stop coughing. See why I’m stressed?

Finally!

Ok. I think I finally figured out a theme and widget set-up I like. Argh. This is too time consuming! But kinda fun… Now if my picture would actually show up like it says it’s supposed to!

It was sad hearing that Heath Ledger died. He was my age. Crazy. I feel bad for his daughter.

So that’s pretty much my day in a nutshell. Back to the books. And if it would only heat up a little bit. It’s like 25 degrees outside. Far too cold for my pretty little self I am eagerly anticipating Major City’s warm weather!

At wit’s end

Ok, so I’m at wit’s end here. I don’t know how to add a “tag cloud” and my stupid picture won’t show up for my avatar! Annoying! Meanwhile, I should be studying. *Sigh. But this is much more interesting. Especially compared to implied easements of necessity or the Rule Against Perpetuties. Vom.

New location

So I moved from Blogger for some other features only available on WordPress. We’ll see how it goes. I’m not too sure I’m in love with the layout, but that’s easily changed.

Wow, my life is boring! Alas, that will all change in March!
