Random note: Tokio Hotel's new album will be called "Humanoid" and will (finally!) be released during the first week of October!!
Let's see... Since my last post, I finished my first "mini-mester" of summer school. I have good grades and I'm awesome.
I also have discovered how unintelligent the members of Auburn University's office staff are. I pretty much had a heart attack when I saw recently that the university sent back a loan without telling me and left me with a wonderful prize of a $5,000 outstanding bill. Just what I always wanted! Then the university canceled my fall semester schedule when that's the semester I graduate. I had to run to Auburn only to be introduced to the rudest man alive. I don't even remember his name, so he will be referred to as @ssman. @ssman, did not help me out AT ALL. He only made me so angry I cried. And that in turn made me even angrier. Thanks, @ssman. I appreciate it.
Anyway, now I'm left to get my exact schedule back on my own with no help from the university... even though the inability to re-register into one of those classes will keep me in school until May 2010. Lovely. But good news is I know the majority of my teachers for next semester and was able to re-register into all but one class... which I'm on a waiting list for. Go figure that it's the teacher I don't know.
My last free summer (unless I decide to get certified as a teacher) will officially begin with a trip to Seaside, Florida with my family on Sunday!! CAN'T WAIT! And one of my best friends is coming with us. Hopefully she'll be able to survive the chaos that is my family. At least I'll know that if my best friend can't handle my family, chances are a boyfriend/husband wouldn't be able to either. Here's hoping...
Now, you might be wondering where my post title came from. It's from the show Ghost Adventures on the Travel Channel!!!! YEEEAAAAH!
It's basically the most amazing show ever on the most amazing channel ever. It follows three guys in their early 30s: Zak, Nick, and Aaron. Every other word they say is either "Dude" or "awesome". Thank God they are not like annoying surfer boys, but more like funny fraternity boys that have no clue about handling ghosts or anything remotely scary. Don't get me wrong... I love these guys. And Zak has arms I would kill to touch. I know they know what they are doing. They're not dumb. But their show is refreshing because they are candid and when something goes wrong, they don't edit it out like other shows would. They don't take themselves too seriously. Like the episode last week in Savannah, Georgia where Zak was scared poo-less by a cat in a tunnel. Or the episode a few weeks ago when Aaron was scared by a mounted buffalo head. I'm glad they keep these moments of comedy. The guys may look stupid, but I'm pretty sure I'd freak out too in those situations.
This next bit on Ghost Adventures is probably my favorite moment in the history of the series (ok, so it's only in it's second season...).
The crew was visiting a southern plantation and stumbled upon an attic-like closet in a bedroom. The closet contained A LOT of hanging gourds (Lord knows why... is that how you're supposed to dry them out??). Zak saw these hanging "things" and says "What the hell are those?? Ugh! They're ALIEN EGGS!!". He then states he's scared to touch them because something might hatch out of them. "Where are we?? Doesn't it feel like some kind of damn spaceship??". "Is this some kind of voodoo??" Oh Zak Bagans, I love you. I could quote you all day.
Ghost Adventures airs on the Travel Channel Friday nights at 9pm ET.
