"jerktude", it's a fabulous new word that (e:hodown) coined. she lives in the land of jerks, nyc, thus the reason for her inventing the word. and even if someone else has said it before, she made it cool.
now, i have come across my fair share of people with jertudes in my time. i even have one myself sometimes, and (e:hodown) has admitted to embracing hers.
now, I actually have(most) of this weekend off, so I am going to try to limit my personal jerktude because I have some fun things going on, however I welcome you all to use this word as much as you would like.
Unleash your jerktude!

ready to goi miss aruba so much. i suppose its not realistic to feel i belong there, but i guess being out of the u.s. makes me think i would be happier elsewhere.
i am glad i came to phoenix and no doubt i will be here a while longer, but i am ready to go.
as soon as i get my degree i would love the opportunity to teach someplace tropical by the ocean. this is basically what i dream about everyday.
i was so happy on vacation, and not just that vacationy feeling, but i just love the water. it made me feel as happy as i did as a little girl when i would go on beach vacations with my family. i remember how content i was to just walk up and down the beach, and i felt the same way is aruba.
i can't wait to go back in may. and i can't wait to finish school so i can go out and see the world!!!
for now, i need to find a way to get by here because although i would never move back to buffalo, it gets very lonely here. no one ever just hangs out here. the people are fake and have awful fashion. i am also so sick of mexican food and tacos.
i want to live somewhere where i can walk to my destination instead of driving 40 minutes to get there.
mostly, i want to be the new girl again, life is more fun that way.

schoolioapparently i can finish the rest of my degree online, in the next year. this will be the record for world's longest bachelor's degree at about 7 years.
i subtracted the two years of cosmetology, which was a huge waste of time, even though i did just do an amazing job on another bride.
anyway, this excitement of this possible opportunity excites me.
i would be able to go anywhere, in a year.
also, i can take my vacas and finish my work beforehand and not worry about stupid lectures when i get back. and, the online program requires less math, and this would mean i am currently taking my last math class!!!!!!!
i suppose i will know in the next few weeks, hooray!

I need a makeover. Apparently, I need to dress up and I have no idea how. All my dressing-up is very non-Western and all my "dresses" are at home.

i really do rock at makeovers, and helping people with style and hair and makeup. i can make anyone look a better version of themselves, but it's hard to get people to change. some people think their bad look is good. in the end, what is fun for me, ends up being a job to do to someone else and i would rather hang with kids all day.

Just curious, why didn't you follow up on the cosmetology degree? Seems like you rock at makeovers etc.

into the wildCategory: movies
finished watching into the wild this morning. wow, what a depressing way to start my day.
i know the guy had a message about being free and whatnot but seriously? he went to alaska and basically committed suicide because he had no clue what he was doing and thought he was just going to be the arctic tarzan?
i know we are all too dependent on material possessions but i think he could have found a better way...
it was so sad when he was eating the plants he thought were edible and then realized he poisoned himself..
and extremely gross when he killed the moose but couldn't butcher it in time and the maggots started coming out everywhere.
anyway, this movie makes me even more into civilization and material items, and definitely not ever into traveling into the wild.
so pretty much, you can watch this movie and be depressed afterwards, but it is really good, and the main actor is hot, until he goes insane and starves to death, but you could just stop watching and disregard that part if you wanted.
i hope there are hundreds of hot men in aruba, and not the kind that will try to abduct me, only the kind who want to buy me things and give me drinks from a coconut that they have not put drugs into.

I loved that movie! But I agree- a little extreme, but it puts things into perspective and really makes you think about how reliant we are on so many things that we really don't need...
and eddie vedder did the soundtrack, which is amazing :)

ok, first of all i don't really like sean penn either. thanx (e:joshua). and i have seen the grizzly man, and i stick to my point that both men were crazy, the grizzly man more so.

I loved this movie; found it very moving and in many ways I am envious of Chris (played by hottie Emile Hirsch, for those interested). His death and expression of what he learned up to that point is poignant- happiness is not meant to be experienced alone. I dig that.

Oh, and Tim Treadwell liked to video record everything - it turned out that he managed to record his own death, but only the audio portion. For some reason the video portion got ruined.

Fuck Sean Penn. Anyway there is another story similar to this, and equally true, involving a guy named Timothy Treadwell. Werner Herzog created a documentary about him called Grizzly Man - essentially for many summers he went and lived among the grizzlies in remote Alaska. His last summer he AND his girlfriend were killed and eaten by bears.

The effective antidote might be "The Girl Next Door" :::link:::
I think Tim Olyphant's character makes it completely worth seeing. Hahaha

You know, I really like Thoreau's Walden (partly because it wasn't required reading and I read it when I was supposed to be reading other required stuff). This movie now sounds like Thoreau-gone-awry to me.

Hmm...Felly and I watched this movie and I think that in a way, it is meant to make you feel bad. I think that this guy, I forget his name, was on to something and had really good ideals. I think where he went wrong was that he not only secluded himself from civilization and material things, but from all people. I don't think human beings can survive without human beings. That and he was, admittedly, a well-off kid who might have been a little pompous and naive about his abilities to survive in the wild.

I am so glad you decided to post an honest review of the movie here. This was on my to-watch list but I don't think I like the storyline at all. I think I want to live and die in the midst of people, not in some crazy wilderness after finding "peace".
