Please don't be ignorant

I was just browsing the flair on facebook... and realized that every other piece of crap flair is "anti-Obama" or "anti-capitalism" or "I'll Keep my money, guns, and freedom. You can keep the change."

Clearly someone's still a little sour over the November election. Well, grab a tissue and get over it. Clearly someone doesn't realize that this country is NOT TURNING TO CAPITALISM OR SOCIALISM or whatever! Seriously. Take a look at the health care plans. Take a look at Canada's national healthcare. It works up there. Maybe it will work here.

I get how some people don't like "change". But considering the direction that everything took while Bush 2.0 was in office, I'm up for any kind of "change". If these people making the flair were content with the way the country and economy was going before Obama, they can go buy their own country and bring it down. Don't screw America over. Give Obama a chance. You assume everything he's doing is bad just because he's Democrat. I'm not saying that all Republicans are like this (maybe only the extreme ones), but it's sure making "republican" and "ignorance" sound like the same word to me.

No offense to all my republican friends. And you know my opinion and I are outnumbered here in AL. :)

MTV VMAs 2009

I'm a huge fan of the Video Music Awards that come on MTV every fall. Even though Tokio Hotel wasn't there this year (Best New Artist 2008 what what!), it's always fun to watch. You never know what will happen.

This year's VMAs were awesome. Simply because of two things: Kanye West and Lady Gaga.

It was the beginning of the awards show. The first award given (I think) was for the Best Female Video. Nominees were Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, blah blah blah. Taylor swift won. I didn't think she'd win, but I love Taylor Swift. Her video was awesome, so whatever. She was in the middle of her acceptance speech when Kanye "I'm-the-biggest-ass-ever" West interrupted her. He said he would let Taylor finish, but Beyonce had the most amazing video. How awkward for Taylor. And she didn't get to finish her speech. Thank God Beyonce is so classy and invited Taylor to finish her speech when Beyonce won for best video. Kanye should have been thrown out. He also needs to learn some manners and to shut up. So, Mr. Master of Douchebaggery, frankly no one cares about what you have to say.

The best part of the night was watching Lady Gaga. Genius!! Sheo's so weird and eccentric and I love her. She had many outfits that were crazy, including this black mess that she couldn't move her neck in, a flaming red Slim Jim looking outfit, and her feather headpiece (like Russell Brand said: "She's become an ESKIMO!!") at the end that made her face look like a nest and the perfect place to lay an egg.

Her performance of "Paparazzi" was so strange, I loved it. "Paparazzi" is my favorite Lady Gaga song. She sounded amazing during the performance, but then it got a little... as People tweeted, "Violent". She heads over to a piano, starts playing, gets up and starts "bleeding" all over the place. Then, she raises above the stage "dead". LOL! I wish I had the balls to be as different as Lady Gaga is.

Rant o' the week

I don't get it... I cook (darn yummy food too), I clean, I put forth effort to not look like a bum when I roll out of bed, and I'm fun (I think) but I'm STILL SINGLE. WTF? If God's making me wait this long, the boy better be darn good. OH EFF!

While listening to my current theme song, "Haven't Met You Yet" by Michael Buble, I can't decide if I feel hopeful or depressed. Both?? Yeah, both...

Michael Buble - Haven't Met You Yet

Oink Oink... Back to School!

I can't sleep so I'm writing a blog entry. The beauty of only having class on Tuesdays/Thursdays...

School started a little over 2 weeks ago. Thank God I was able to get into the last class I needed to graduate! So December 18th will be one HUGE party in Alabama. Best. Day. Ever.

The only crappy thing about only having class twice a week is that on those days, I am on campus from 8am til 3:30 or so. I know that doesn't sound that bad, especially for those of you who have a real job, but I haven't had to show up somewhere for that long without the incentive of an hourly salary since high school. And I didn't miss that. The worst part about the day is it starts at 8am with 2 and a half hours straight of Business Spanish. Then I have Masterpieces of Spanish Literature and finish with Spanish-American Civilizations. Joy. Oh well... every class day I struggle to stay awake through is one day closer to never having class again in my life. Sweet.

As if school isn't uninviting enough, Auburn is having a bit of a Swine Flu problem. Awesome. I have no immune system, so this semester should be soooooo fun. People in my classes are already sick with the Swine Flu, so I'm just waiting for the porky virus to take a hop and a skip to my desk a few spots away. I have heard rumors of the university thinking about closing dorms or even the school if it gets much worse. If they cancel school, I'm still coming to class, dammit! I've got a graduation to attend this December. After that, peace out!

On another note... you guys all know me. You know I love to cook things. That's what I do on Friday nights when I get bored. It sounds kind of sad, but it relaxes me. Recently I have been trying to cook for a certain guy I like. Mom said to write a blog like the Julie/Julia Project (the girl who cooked her way though Mastering the Art of French Cooking by Julia Child and wrote a blog about it). My blog, naturally, would be about finding my way to a man's heart through cooking. However, I think this guy is interested in someone else. So poo on him and me cooking for him. Thanks to his "man-whoreness", my blog was dead before it began.

Oh, Liz might find this funny... I had my car mistakenly towed from my apartment complex. I didn't have to pay for it or anything, but it's pretty funny that it got towed when it wasn't supposed to have been. Maybe it's karma for getting your car towed.

Let's see... randomness:
• I just turned 23. I'm officially old, because I remember when my sister Christina turned 23 and I made fun of her for being so old. Now it's my turn.

• FOOTBALL SEASON STARTS THIS WEEKEND!!! If we lose to LA Tech, I'm done being an Auburn fan. For real this time.

• I have just discovered the wonder of Target's necklaces... the pearls with ribbon kind. I've bought a million lately. I actually buy outfits to go with some of these necklaces. That's how much I love them.

• I went to the Ole Auburn Ale House (or for Mandi: "O-lee Auburn A-lee House"... tee hee)with a sorority sister for dinner and drinks tonight. There was an awesome Celtic group with fiddles and everything. I really want to go to Ireland now. Anyone coming with??

Tokio Hotel update (because I can't remember if I posted this before... deal with it): Album "Humanoid" will be released October 6th in the States. Single "Automatic/Automatisch" will be released September 22nd. WOOOOOT! Just a quick pic of Bill. Geez... I love his smile.
Ok... bed! This took way too freaking long. I have to get up sometime before 4pm tomorrow to get my football tickets. :)
