Art of Shit-Talk
There are two ways to talk shit
1. There's the kind that gets a genuine laugh out of me because you know that individual is exaggerating and means no harm... you know, like playful prodding or bantering? kind of like SNL shit but in your day to day life.. if that makes sense. haha
2. Then there's the other kind that elicits a forced chuckle followed by an uncomfortable silence. The kind where despite the overlaying lighthearted delivery of whatever comment, you can still detect the harsh tone in their voice. And when confronted they'll try playing it off or justifying their comment.. if they're saying something bad about another friend to your face.. Imagine what they're saying about you behind your back.
~ Careful with the people you surround yourself with.
p.s. i think having a shared blog with your best friends (esp when you're off at different colleges) is the greatest shiat eva to K.I.T. & remain B.F.F.! of course, looking back and seeing all the dumb/bitchy/dramaqueen things you've said over the past couple years is a highlight as well :-P

O. M. G. & Black Friday
AS:DLKak;lda;'.....asd;klasd;'kla;lofa........?!?!1 ! ! ! !

... the Burberry "Knight", all yours for roughly 1K.
(sorry dayna, i know you hate studs =P)
obvi, going dtown to shop on black friday even when i'm a brokeass bitch wasn't enough torture... i then go home to browse through websites for things that are completely and utterly unattainable. rawr!
funny how that frantic Black Friday mode is so contagious.. even at places like Forever and Sephora when the stuff isn't even on sale. i realized this when i finally sat down for some food with a budding headache and realized that i could have waited a few days and shopped in peace (and with lots of personal space) instead. oh well, got a few things that i've been wanting for a while and a few unexpecteds so hurrah!
also have people downtown gotten weirder?
cases in point:
strange person #1: a homeless person sitting by the powell starbucks with what i would call a pet pyramid... 2 rats lying atop a cat which was lying atop a dog...
edit: ellen sent me a pic
strange person #2: helen and ellen got to witness this one.. a woman outside of Ross licks the sidewalk and then on her way inside, frenches with the glass door.
strange people #3: protestor-biggots of sorts outside by the cable car turnaround, proclaiming the reasons why genocide is a great thing and accusing some dark-haired girl of being a witch. of course, he also mentions how us sinners are all going to burn in hell. mmmm, at least it'll be nice n' toasty. [speaking of temperatures, SF is freakin 50-ish degrees during midday. and i thought LA dropping to the mid 60s at night was freezing enough!]
anyway, my partners in crime.. srsly love these girls! (we look soo aZn)
(don't know what the fuck is goin' on with my arms here...)
now to tend to my annual post-Black Friday migraine...

Words of Bill Gates

Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.
wizzord!

Fuck you, AcuraTSX.
last night was insane...
i realize that i am not all growned up, and i'm still pretty much a big baby
i've concluded that my mom's car hates me. and i hate it back!!!
capping off the happy happy joy joy celebrations of my bday with getting a flat tire on the freeway in the wee hours of the night... was a fuckin reality check. also note that when i exited the freeway to examine the car, we were "about a block from the projects" - according to helen.. thanks bitch. ALSO note - we saw the same car eerily drive past us twice, and suzanne goes "my mom says those are the people who look for houses to rob" - dear god!
anyway, i am so THANKFUL that suzanne and helen were there with me to calm me down and that helen's poppa was so generous with his time @ 2 in the morning.
i love that i have parents who are so understanding and have somehow raised me to self-punish/self-guilt trip. they don't even have to exact any penalties on me because i do it to myself willingly. wow.
... GIVE THANKS!
hahaha well LOVE YALLS, EAT YOUR ASSES OFF TONIGHT! (and watch the Macy's parade.. or MTV...)

Growing Pains
Sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are the same - The Fray
i remember last year.. i was going through what i thought was the worst thing to ever happened to me at that point in my life. at the time, i couldnt see how any of it was "for the best" or that it was "for a reason"... and i remember feeling numb as i sat there replaying events over and over again in my mind.
but now i can assuredly say that that 'horrible' event turned out to be the healthiest and best best BEST thing that has ever happened to me.
obvi i can relate to that feeling.. when the heartbreak is still so fresh and poignant and you just feel soooo DAMN lost.. but i realized that anger and sorrow should be fleeting emotions; otherwise, they are incredibly draining and damaging. i realized that there was no reason to resist moving forward because going back was no longer an option. it is so natural, even essential, to be at this state.. but one should try to look forward.. in order to successfully transition from broken, abused girl to strong, independent woman.
in the end, i realized i wasn't grieving over a "lost love", i was tending a shattered ego. i kinda wished that i was crying over losing a wonderful boyfriend, but i wasn't. i was broken because i was embarrassed by how much i had let myself down. in the end, what he did wasn't just his fault but mine too - by being with someone so wrong for me and for letting someone convince me that i (this applies to every girl) was anything less than precious. to finally admit that to myself, it was liberating. when i finally paid attention to what was actually hurting, that's when the real healing started.
hurt, cry, scream in a pillow, talk (a little) shit, recount all the bad times, cherish the good times, but realize that they don't outweigh the abuse... release it ALL... and move on.

*drool
i wanted to die (the good dying, not the bad dying.. not that dying is such a positive experience in the first place.. ok wow i'm rambling... parenthesized comments are supposed to be short) when i saw this.
What is up with me and studs?
oh, did i tell you guys that i bought some gold and silver pyramid studs??!
and yes. i just want to stud everything in sight. even my pillow. and my notebook. and my gloomy bear.
....jk, not that i haven't thought about it.. seriously, i wanted to give Gloomy a new pair of earrings =P
