So there is yet another Robin Hood series, this time on BBC america.

I swear there's been like 10 mini series, 2 televsion series and like 15 movies. in each one, robin gets more badass and maid marian either is a total slut or is equally butch as robin hood.

there's a show on BBC America right now in which every time they show this woman she and her husband are ordering things at restaurants and when asked what she wants, she screams "I WANT A FUCKING BABY!"

So I originally was going to be spending my birthday in Denver. Then those plans fell through.

Instead I'll be in Madrid with my mom and my sister......como?

Today my sister (e:mk) texts me and says "were going to Italy this summer" and I laughed and then puked. (I was hungover. Puking is not my usual response to my sister's text messages)

Anyway, so I go home this afternoon to discover that e:mk is serious. My mom really wants to go to Europe. So instead of doing all the things I SHOULD have done this afternoon, I sat in my kitchen with my mom and sister and booked flights. We're not an impulsive family, yet here we are spending tons of money to go to Europe just because we want to. We each named places we wanted to go. I wanted to go to Ireland and Spain, e:mk wanted to go to France and and Italy and my mom wanted to go to Italy Spain and Ireland. After debate and ticket pricing we opted for:

Flying into London, then flying to Milan, spending a couple days there, and then flying to Madrid on July 3rd (meaning July 4th I will be in Madrid!!!!!!) spending a few days in Madrid and then flying back to London for the night, seeing a show and staying in a real hotel. AMAZING!!!!


I'm so excited I can't take it.

Sidenote, as I discovered a long time ago, its waaaaaaay cheaper to fly out of toronto to london then taking easyjet to other countries.


OMG!!! Yay!!!!!!!!! I can't wait!!!!

I've realized in the past 2 days why I had previously believed I was so happy and together: I didn't have time to think about it before, so I simply chose a conclusion that freed my mind up to think about other things and moved on.

Now I'm not saying that I'm wrong and I'm a waste of space (a heavily contested point) but I'm afraid this free time may lead to an analysis of my life for the sake of analysis and I'll draw some depressing conclusions, just to give my brain something to work on.

Maybe I'll dedicate more brain power into coming up with logical scenarios for how I could meet George Clooney and make him fall in love with me.

Lets face it, even when I'm working, my brain isn't really being bogged down with complex thought. Putting clothes in bags and alphabetizing things does not require as much mental energy as I had previously anticipated.

What do you suppose are the odds that I will run into George Clooney in Milan in some "hilarious after the fact" accident in which he comes to my rescue? A runaway cart of bread and/or produce seems like it would factor nicely into this scenario.

Ok so my spring break has not been that exciting. I went to brunch today with Amie, Adam, Peter and Kevin, then we went shopping. I bought flip flops and a hat. It was very exciting. I found a cute pea coat style blazer at JCPenney's that I want. Someone buy it for me. It makes me look thin and like I have boobs, which i kind of do, but who doesn't need more??

I love Justin Timberlake. And George Clooney. And Hugh Laurie. Yes. This is all true.

So brunch today was hilarious, meaning what I ordered. I ordered an egg white omelette with no cheese and toast with no butter. I'm the coolest person ever. As everyone around me devoured pancakes with butter and syrup, belgian waffles and eggs benedict. I'm trying to be good, but its not easy, especially since most of my friends can eat basically whatever they want. Lucky punks. But I love them anyway.

Word. That is all.

any toot,

started out at laughlin's and played the awkward girl waiting for her friends for almost an hour before I said "fuck it" (ok i didn't actually say it out lout) and went to frizzy's and good times were had by all.
a shoutout to e:mk for convincing me to go to frizzy's and to e:jessbob for making sure our drunk asses got home safe.

i don't want to go to class tomorrow like its nobody's business.

one of my roommates hits the big 2-1 tonight at midnite. Since we can't go out I'm taking her to Wegman's at midnight to buy booze.

then my other roommate hits the big 21 on tuesday so i will be the drunk bus for them both tomorrow night. Jenna drove my drunk ass around a couple weekends ago so the favor is being returned.

so apparently in 2 weekends my roommates and i are having a birthday/90s sitcom themed party at our apartment. i want to be kimmy gibbler.

today e:mk and i looked up disney movie countdowns like the top 567 disney heroes and top 100 songs and like top 4000000 villans. A Whole New World was the top song. I concur.

Ok who loves the movie "The Sword in the Stone"? I love it but it never gets the recognition it deserves. Its a quality film. Its sweeeeeeet.

I just saw a commercial for a new show on MTV called "Scarred".

Its a bunch of clips and stuff of skateboarders etc and their really bad injuries caught on tape. They showed lots of people with their feet turned completely around and blood pouring out of their noses and mouths.

I literally stared at the screen with my mouth open involuntarily for about a minute after the commercial ended.

MTV's True Life is one of those shows that once I start watching it I can't stop. There have been like 3 episodes in a row.

Ive been talking to this guy and I'm not sure I'm that into him. This dating thing blows.

I forgot to mention in my last post...maybe because I was still recovering from that commercial that I know someone who was in an episode of True Life, the fat camp one.

I know a pseudo- reality TV celebrity.

Word.

Here's Ben in my living room, the one on the right.

He was in MTV's True Life "I'm Going to Fat Camp"

Proof that I know a reality tv pseudo-star.

I love the song "Just Around the Riverbend". Who's with me?!!

So school is ending soon, I'm not thrilled about this fact. Still have no concrete plan for the fall. There are a few jobs I've applied for but so far nada. That's ok, it should be a sign.

The Stage Managment Grad School thing is not going to happen. Not because I didn't get in anywhere, but because I don't want to do it. I've missed the deadlines for a lot of schools but I've decided what I want to go for. I'm going to get my master's in Theatre Education. I finally feel good about something int he future.

I have a bad habit of denying myself things I know that I will want and will make me happy for shitty reasons. Since I was 10 I knew I wanted to be a teacher and I know I'll be good at it. I don't want to sound conceited, but it's true.

The schools that caught my attention are Boston University at Virginia Commonwealth University. There are a couple others, but those two seem like I'd fit into their program well, apparently SUNY Albany has a program, that's just random.

I almost cracked and broke my "no more shows this semester rule", but then what honestly made me change my mind was the mental image I had of Amie shaking her head in disappointment and I said no. Haha.


I head to 'bama in 3 weeks for my cousin's wedding. She just emailed me while I was writing this entry to ask me to be the guestbook attendant, all I can think about is the episode of Sex & The City where Miranda has that job at someone's wedding. I can't even remember whose, Charlotte's?

I should really start packing my room and cleaning it. Its such a disaster. I've been here 2 years and have accumulated that much junk. Awesome.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOSER!!!

(e:MK)


YOU'RE OLD TODAY!!! 24!!! YAY!!!! WOOHOOOO!
