This is a green light. This means it is safe and you are now allowed to go.
That is all.

Just a Reminder...
There's seems to be some confusion in Orangeville about what traffic lights mean. Let me clear this up.
This is a red light. Red means stop. It does not mean creep forward until the light turns green, nor does it mean you can turn right whenever you feel.

Driven to the Edge
I've noticed that my blog has become a source primarily for me to vent my anger and frustrations with the world. But that's okay. This blog is for me after all. So I'll complain all I want, it makes me feel better.So here's my rant for today: BAD DRIVERS!
On my way home tonight, I couldn't help but notice all the bad drivers. I started to get the famililar itch of road rage. Especially at this time of year, drivers are the worst.
First it's the season when the weather starts to get a little rough for driving and people suddenly forget how to drive. Second, it's the holiday season, so people are so self-absorbed that they forget about everoyne else on the road and think nothing is more important than their Christmas shopping.
Now I know I wouldn't have a right to talk about this if I was a shitty driver too, but I'm not. I promise you. You can ask any of my friends and they'll tell you I'm a fairly safe driver. Obviously I've made mistakes here and there but I try really hard to be a good, patient, safe driver and I'm very proud of my driving skills. I always use my signal lights, turn off my high beams when I see other cars approaching, move as close to the left lane when there's someone turning right behind me at a red light... I pride myself on my driving abilities.
Here are some of the offenses I witnessed/can't stand when driving.
- People who do not use their signal lights. Yes, it's not the law when merging, but it's a courtesy thing. If you don't use your signal lights when turning a corner, well I just hope there are no cops around. Asshole.
- People who do not stop at red lights when turning right. That's illegal! And it's for your own safety. Even when there aren't any cars coming, you still have to stop. One day you're going to get t-boned, and I'm not going to feel bad at all. And it'll be your fault. So take that.
- People who only care about themselves and think their priorities are far more important than everyone else's. (People who drive through yellow lights at the last second, not stopping at red lights when turning right and people who speed, etc. all fall under this category). Like I said, it's especially bad at this time of year because people are always in a hurry to get places to buy socks for their kids, going to pick up dinner because they're too fat and lazy to cook for their family or running to the liquor store before it closes to pick up their forty of whiskey to drink their troubles away that night.
Someone wouldn't let me merge tonight, even though I had my signal light on for like 5 minutes. He kept speeding up, trying to block me out, so when he finally did let me in, I went less than the speed limit to punish him. Don't fuck with me when driving, I'm a force to be reckoned with.
- The other night it snowed in my town, so naturally everyone panicked and forgot how to drive. I got stuck behind people doing 30 in 50 zones and this one person that would stop 500 metres before they had to. I couldn't believe it. it took me 10 extra minutes to get home. I couldn't believe it. I've only been driving by myself for a few months and I know how to drive better than you. Unbelievable.
There aren't enough words in the English language to express the faults that bad drivers committ or the things I hate about other drivers so I'll just leave it at that.
If you're one of these people, shame on you and I hope your license gets revoked. The day before Christmas. Bitch.
Merry Christmas!

GG Part 2
Holy shit, Gossip Girl's episode from this week! So much happens and then it just ENDS once again.
Firstly, I thought Dan was going to ruin everything by telling Blair he loves her. Thank goodness he did not. I would've lost it.
But then he does the right thing and gets Chuck to meet Blair and they decide they have to be together! As if we didn't all realize this two seasons ago!
So my wish came true. Blair and Chuck finally rekindled their love that has been binding them together since the first season. And both were willing to get over the fact that it is Louis' baby. (Gotta be honest, I did not see that coming. I thought for sure it was Chuck's baby and Bair had just been lying about it, but lo and behold, it truly is Louis').
Anyway, they decided it was time for the two to get back together and even left to tell Louis about it almost immediately.
This is where the real shit goes down.
They leave in a limo and are promptly followed by paparazzi on motorcycles. The scene gets serious. Nate is following the car and sees that the motorcyclists are driving pretty recklessly and then the limo CRASHES!
Blair is pregnant and the two had just admitted their undying love! THIS CAN'T HAPPEN!
So in the hospital Lily comes out announcing that Blair is awake and responsive. Chuck however, I suppose is not, because Lily says nothing of him. Then you see doctors and nurses running in the background and the episode just ENDS! We know nothing on the status of Chuck's health!
If he dies, I don't know what I'm going to do. I can't watch Blair move on from him and he is my other favourite character. I will cry my eyes out (I mean that, my eyes will cry so much that they will eventually dry out and they'll then be so dry that my eyes will shrivel and fall out of the sockets) if he dies. I cried hard enough when he was stabbed and had Blair's ring stolen at the end of the third season. Like, I CRIED! My mom did too. So if something happens to him fatally, I don't know if I can continue watching this show. Am I really going to continue watching for Serena? Or Dan? NOPE! If Serena is the main focus of the show, I will give up. I hate her. She is boring and needy.
All in all, I love Chuck Bass and I love Chuck Bass with Blair Waldorf. If this screws up their love, I'm going to gun down the writers. Not actually, obviously, I'll probably get over it (but complain about it all the time). But don't let this happen GG writers! Please! I'm begging you to keep the best couple on television together!
Blair and Chuck, Chuck and Blair. Forever.

Be a Sweetie, Wipe the Seatie
I can't stand for this anymore.
I live in a campus residence, on a co-ed floor. Yes that means I share a bathroom with men and women. It actually isn't that bad, except for one little thing: PEOPLE THAT PEE ON THE TOLIET SEAT!
This is disgusting not to mention DEEPLY inconsiderate. How rude and dirty can someone be? I'm not only blaming the men either. I know women use the squatting approach, but the fact they can't hit the bowl has to mean they are peeing on their own feet.
I picked a battle with the men on my floor last year about putting the toilet seat down when they are finished (as it only makes sense - men and women both need to sit on the toilet more than men pee standing up, so really it makes more sense), but I lost. They ripped down my (politely written) signs and continued leaving the seat up more often. Fine, I'm willing to admit defeat there, but now, I would rather come face-to-face with a toilet seat standing up than SPRINKLE on the seat!
I understand that some men are so lazy they don't want to put the toilet seat down, or not even put it up when they pee, but DO THEY NOT KNOW HOW TO AIM?!
I'm pretty sure I could do a better job peeing standing up and hitting the bowl and I don't have a hose.
And that doesn't even really bother me unless you LEAVE THE PEE ON THE SEAT!
(I feel the need to resort to cursing the express my frustration). How fucking inconsiderate are you that you think the next person should have to sit on, or wipe up your urine spill? Go fuck yourself how about! I am not your maid, nor your mother. I do not clean up after you.
I can guess who on my floor are the complete ASSFUCKS that do this as well. The men that think they're too cool, or that women do not approach the same level as the male specimen. I'm not a feminist by any means, but I can tell which men are deeply for male superiority.
I feel that a lot of my blogs end in anger, but to the people who do this: Go fuck yourselves, you disrespectful pigs.

GG
I have to blog about this while it's fresh in my mind.
I love Gossip Girl and at this point, I don't have anyone to talk to about it. My besty at school has foregone television until the new year and my mom watches it later than I do. So I'm going to blog about it.
(I'm going to speak as if everyone that will ever read this has followed the show as religiously as I have)
This week's episode (season 5, episode 8) was, of course, explosive! I'm always shocked and this week's episode was no disappointment.
Firstly, I would like to talk about this Diana and William relationship.
What is this huge secret they're trying to cover up about Diana? And how were William and Bart involved? What is the scandal about? Diana burned the picture of herself from Bart's folder and let's be honest, that's what this whole thing is about. My besty thinks she was a call girl, but what about it? Everyone knew Bart was a player and had sex with countless women. Old news. So what's the significance of Diana?
As for Nate, he's as hot as always. That's all I have to say about him for this week's episode.
Then we move on to Charlie.
This girl is one hell of a liar. She fools everyone into thinking she's this Charlie. She seduces Nate (which I guess isn't that hard because he is the "class whore") and then she fools everyone into thinking she changed her name to Ivy to defend herself from the "Rhodes" name when really she IS Ivy! She's good. But everything is crumbling around her as Max shows up (and turns out to be a huge asshole) and threatens to ruin everything, as does Diana. Who else is going to find out her secret to blackmail her? Diana is blackmailing her, Max is now blackmailing her for $500 000 nonetheless! You've bitten off a lot more than you could chew, didn't you "Charlie"? And all along we don't know who the real Charlie is. I'm starting to get mega curious.
Dan's in love with Blair. We all knew this already though.
Chuck didn't though. But he does now, and he totally understands! I've been saying all along that Chuck is the best man, but does Blair see it? No, she doesn't.
Which brings me to my last point: Blair and Chuck (hopefully soon to be rid of Louis).
Louis is getting worse and worse everyday, becoming more like the old Chuck and Blair has FINALLY noticed this. You know what else she's noticed? How good Chuck has been and has finally become. And this is the one thing that I have most wanted to write down. WTF IS WITH THE SHOW ENDING WITH BLAIR STANDING IN CHUCK'S APPARTMENT ASKING HIM IF HE'S BEEN GOOD ALL ALONG?! How can they end the episode that way?! And if this is the last episode before the new year, I'm going to lose it. I want to know what's going to happen with these two.
These two characters are the reason I watch this show like I do. I want nothing more in the world than for them to be together again. They are perfect for each other, especially now that they've grown up and become the people they're meant to be. Please, for goodness sake, Gossip Girl angels, please let Blair and Chuck be back together.
You know how the song goes... "Reunited and it feels so good".
So that's what happened on Gossip Girl and how I feel about it.
I will end with my final thought: WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN BETWEEN CHUCK AND BLAIR! I WANT TO KNOW NOW!

The Key to my Heart
As I've stated before, I LOVE the Christmas season. For the music, the snow, the tradition, the feelings it gives me...
I am one of those people that will complain about Christmas music if it plays too early, too often. However, there is one artist who I would love nothing more than to listen to from December 1st, to Christmas day, and that is Michael Buble.
His voice can melt my heart. I've seen him live just once, and he is THE ONE artist who I would pay a fortune to see. I have favourite bands and artists, sure, but Michael Buble takes the cake. He's a looker, he's funny and charming, but more importantly, he has the voice of an angel. Sorry to use such a cliche expression, but he sounds as good live as he does recorded and his music is like nothing else I listen to. Thanks to Michael Buble, I have been introduced to jazz, swing and big band music and nothing tops his music.
I will admit that I get emotional talking about him. I cried at his concert. I don't really want to talk about it, but let's just say I have never been more disappointed about not making eye contact with anyone.
I love this man.
A Michael Buble Christmas this year will help me ring in the New Year perfectly. I hope you can all hear a song of his here and there this season, or you will be missing out.
Michael Buble, I've said this before, one thing I yearn for, is for you to sing at my wedding. This could be dangerous, as I may pay more attention to you than my hubby. However, if for some reason you stumble across this blog one day, know that I love you and nothing, and I mean nothing, would make me happier than to meet you and give you a hug.
I'm going to go back to listening to Michael Buble Christmas music and crying about how I will never meet him.
Michael Buble, you will always have my heart.

Your Life DOES Suck
I am a firm believer in optimism. Bad things happen to everyone. This is a fact. But when you think positively about those things and about things to come, your life will improve, it will seem that better things happen to you.
The reason I say this is because I have grown very tired of reading statuses on facebook reading "Could my life get any worse?" or "I have the worst luck. I hate my life".
Could your life get any worse? Yes, you could lose the ability to use your precious facebook, for example. You could be so poor you can't afford to eat, let alone use your smartphone to update your status about how you missed the bus and then decided to kill yourself because of it.
Does that put your life in perspective a little? No? I didn't think so because you're so pessimistic about life that finding $20 on the street couldn't cheer you up. Keep up that lousy attitude and you'll probably lose that $20 along with your debit card.
We all have bad days, but the more you let it bother you, the more things are going to upset you.
The worst thing about these people is that when things go right for them they call off their terrible lives and postpone their supposed suicide attempts.
Is your life really that bad? Do you have a bed to sleep in at night? Are you a relatively healthy person? Do you eat three square meals a day?
Yeah, I'm going to say you have a pretty bomb life actually. Think about these things the next time you go to write a status like this. Think instead how you can write something sarcastic and funny about your unfortunate situation, which will bring cheer to other people while still helping you vent about what's wrong.
With the Christmas season approaching, I would suggest you stop thinking your life is so hard and terrible and start thinking about others who don't complain, yet are in financially or emotionally hard times. Karma's a bitch... When YOU are a little bitch. Karma will treat you like royalty if you show some compassion to people who are actually struggling.
Do something constructive and quit being a little bitch when the smallest, insignificant things go wrong during your day.
When you act like this, your life will suck.

The Most Wonderful Time of the Year
They say that Christmas time is "the most wonderful time of the year". For me, though, that period is extended by say, I don't know, a few months.
I LOVE winter! More than any time of year.
You might think this is because of Christmas and that I'm a greedy bitch and I like getting presents.
First of all, who doesn't like getting presents?!
Next, I will say that, yes Christmas time is an added bonus of why I love winter, but not because of the presents.
If you know me at all, you will know that I am a big fan of nostalgia. And tradition.
I love the cold. I am a February baby and I am proud of it and truly true to the month I was born in. I'm also a true Canadian. I love shitty weather. Know why? It's cozy! And it's so much easier getting warm when you're cold, than it is to get cold when you're hot. Basically why I dislike summer.
But the thought of snuggling up in a big sweater and blanket with your boyfriend watching Disney movies while the fire roars behind you is really comforting and sweet to me.
There's also the added bonus of fall and winter clothing. Big sweaters, mittens, boots, legwarmers, knitted tights... what's not to love?
The feeling that cold gives me is truly a wonderful feeling. It reminds me of my childhood, while at the same time making me feel warm and delightful on the inside.
Then there's Christmas music. Yes it becomes the most annoying part about winter sooner than later, but it's still fun at the beginning.
There seems to be a lot of paryting going on at this time of year. Christmas parties, New Years parties, school break parties... Overall a good thing.
Christmas shopping time is another great thing. I love buying presents for people more than I like receiving them. And I truly mean that. I'm not trying to be selfless. I love getting people things they want and love and giving them little handwritten notes telling them how I feel about them. Cheesy but that's my thing during Christmas season.
So that's some of the main reasons I love winter. I'll leave you with some pretty pictures that I stole from google that portray the winter I love.
Enjoy this winter season kids!

Sweatpants: Cardinal Sin
I do not dislike sweatpants. I love them. They are comfy and cozy and when they have pockets, quite handy. However I will NEVER and I mean, NEVER, wear sweatpants to class.
Please do not try to convince me otherwise. I don't care how tired/sick/delirious I may be, I will not succumb to wearing sweatpants to class.
I find it ridiculously disrespectful. It looks sloppy and like you don't give a damn about what that respectable prof in front of you has to say.
You may try to counter this argument with "Well do you use your cell phone in class? Because that's disrespectful". And you would be right. It's extremely disrespectful. I try not to do it and I still turn red and feel hella embarassed when a prof notices me texting during their class. I never claimed to be a saint by not wearing sweatpants. I just don't want to go out of my way to look sloppy.
I am also not claiming to be a fashion expert. But I try to look as presentable as possible when I'm going out in public (except on rare occasions).
Public does not count as walking from res to the caf to me. That is the place I will wear sweatpants. To the caf. To the gym. To go talk to my friend across the hall. But I will not wear sweatpants to class.
That pretty much sums up my dislike of sweatpants in school. Go ahead and wear them, but now that you know I feel this way, be wary that I will talk about how sloppy you look.
You have been warned.

My Life Would Be Easier If...
Everyone has had the revelation at some point in their life that if they had some extra quality, money, tangible item, etc. their life would be much easier.
I realized today, due to my extreme sickness (turns out I had the flu, not Captain Trip from The Stand), that life would be a lot easier if I liked melon.
Fruits and vegetables are very good for sick people. I understand this. But you try finding easy access/good tasting fruits and vegetables in a school cafeteria that neglects the students who stay there on the weekends (because so many of the students go home on weekends).
I digress. The main fruit that my school carries anyway is pineapple (which I can't eat because it gives me wicked canker sores, even though I LOVE that shit), grapes (which are usually all gone by the time I realize I want fruit) and MELON! I can't stand melon. It's bland, watery and has a weird taste to it... But that's all there is, so it would be waaaay easier if I could just suck it up and eat it.
So due to this revelation, I've decided to make a list of things that would make my life much easier. It will most certainly not include all of the things that would do so, but as many as I can think of off the top of my head at the moment :)
- liking melon
- having a larger income, particularly during the year while I'm at school
- being slightly more fit
- having smaller boobs
- being wittier/funnier
- liking spicy food (apparently it is good for colds as well)
- not being a control freak
- having a macbook
- living with my boyfriend instead of only being able to see him every other weekend when I go home, if he can get a day off from work
- having whiter teeth
- having prettier hands
- having hair that I can just wash and walk out of the house with
- knowing everything
- always knowing what gifts to give people
- knowing more about my religion
- having a car (and not having to pay for gas and insurance) (unless I had a better income...)
- having a soft bed at school instead of the board that I sleep on every damn night
So that's my list of things that I could come up with now that would make my life much easier. Useful information, I know.
I realized today, due to my extreme sickness (turns out I had the flu, not Captain Trip from The Stand), that life would be a lot easier if I liked melon.

I think I may be coming down with something...
I love to read. However, I have a hard time buying books, because there is no way of telling whether the book will be good or not from what the back cover tells you about the story. If I can't tell if I'll like the book, what's the point of spending money on it? It may be a waste.
Thus, I read a lot of the same books over and over. The Harry Potter series I've read cover to cover 9 times, save for the Deathly Hallows which I've only read 6 times. Jodi Picoult is another author that I am a big fan of. My best friend let me borrow several of her books to read over a period of a few years and I became hooked to her writing. Just captivating. So I've bought several of her books now as well.
I don't have a lot of books with me at school though. So once I've finished reading the HP series again, my options for reading are slim. I can borrow books from the Toronto libraries, sure, but it can take me a while to get through a book as I am a student and have other, more pressing matters before reading, and the thought of a due date makes me anxious.
Ok, now for the real point of this entry.
I recently started reading The Stand by Stephen King. Stephen King is a very famous author and good things are always said about him. His books are reknowned.
Now, because I've already said that I don't buy books frequently (especially because funds are limited for me at the present time), I had two choices of Stephen King novels to choose from, ones that my mom already had in the house: The Stand and IT.
I've watched the IT movie and hated it. I thought it was stupid, so I wasn't eager to read that one. My mom told me though that she thinks that The Stand is Stephen King's greatest work.
So The Stand it is.
This book is looooooong. I am reading the the complete and uncut edition that was published years after the ogirinal. It is not a different story, it just includes parts that had been cut from the original. It's 1153 pages long. The book is about a viral illness that quickly spreads, is hard to catch because it presents the same symptoms as a common cold at first and many many MANY people die from it.
Now I've only read approximately the first hundred pages so far so I can't tell you much more at this point. However, I can tell you that I was scared into thinking I had the illness the first 50 pages in. I developed a mild cough, a slight stuffy nose and today had terrible body aches and terrible weakness.
What's my first thought? Texting my mom and asking if you get the mysterious illness from the book just by picking it up.
I refrained from doing that. I have a feeling she would just laugh at me. In fact, I know she would.
But I suppose my message from this blog entry is this:
Be wary of reading this book. It is very interesting thus far but very paranoia inducing (for lack of a more elaborate or effective way of describing it).
But I still encourage everyone to read it. Not necessarily the uncut edition as I know not everyone is the reading type. But pick this novel up. Very captivating.
If I can get my hands on it, Misery is next, followed by The Green Mile. Perhaps I'll write about those as well.

Hot Guy #10
This guy is a sexy Scottsman, and from that alone many may be able to guess who it is.
Welcome, hot guy #10: Gerard Butler.
Sexy, sexy man.
The accent alone is what he has going for him.
Not to mention his awesome acting abilities and movies.
And his body on top of all that.
This guy's a definite winner.
I haven't watched 300, it's not my type of movie. But I've gazed at pictures of him from it. I've also seen Law Abiding Citizen a million times (hello sexy bum shot) and even though I have grown tired of Katherine Heigel movies, The Ugly Truth is still entertaining.
Like I said before, just his Scottish accent is enough for me, one of the reasons I like How To Train Your Dragon (he's the dad, if you didn't know).
His stardom started rolling a few years ago, and I couldn't be happier. I am happy to see him be in more movies and of course I want to see them all, no matter how boring they look. Come on! It's approximately 2 hours of looking at and listening to this sexy sexy man.
Gerard Butler is an A+ without a doubt. Come to mama.

"You know what su..." "Oh my God, I love him"
You know what I hate, beyond most things (besides being late - biggest pet peeve)? Being interrupted. I hate it. Especially as I go out of my way to not interrupt people and if I do, I apologize quickly.
I seem to be ignored/interrupted quite often. People will cut me off mid-sentence and will not even acknowledge that I was talking.
Do I need to speak more loudly? Am I mumbling? Do I need to proclaim that I will be talking now?
I can list off people that do this to me regularly, that's how often this happens to me.
I just find it very rude. It essentially means that what you're saying isn't of value to the other person and the person who interrupts has more bearing on the conversation.
What bugs me even more is being interrupted during arguments. I have a valid point also, and I would appreciate it if you didn't cut me off halfway through to yell over my argument because you think your's is more valid.
I've had enough of this. Yet I still do not know what to do about it. It's not as if I can be a huge bitch, look stoney after every interruption and tell the person in an angry tone, "You know you just interrupted me, right? I would like to finish my thought, thank you". I don't try to be a bitch so that option clearly isn't going to work for me.
So for now I suppose I keep being unheard, keep being interrupted, ignored and feeling of less value than my conversation counterparts.
One final thought. For those of you who are interrupters, try to notice...
What are you doing after this? Want to go get coffee?
Fuck you sir, I give up.

Total Babe
If you have heard of Tila Tequila, it's more likely due to her reality show A Shot At Love or her fame for her millions of friends online. It's also not a secret that she is bisexual.
But you might not know that she's a model and a songwriter and that I think this woman is so sexy.
I've stated I'm not a lesbian in any way, but I can still appreciate the sex appeal of another woman. By just looking up at a picture you can tell how sexy and adorable she is.
I fell in love with this girl watching A Shot At Love. I think it's beautiful that she is proud of her sexuality and confident in who she is.
This woman is smoking hot. She makes music, has a smokin hot bod and seems really chill. She is a strong, powerful woman and she seems fearless and confident.
She is this tiny, little thing which makes her adorable as well as sexy.
I've gotten a lot of flack for my love for this girl, because many think she's a famewhore. She may have created her reality show simply for the fame and publicity, but I like to think she was truly looking for love.
Her music promotes things that are very admirable, despite her terrible songs. I still think her music is fun. She tells is the way it is and has no shame for who she is, such as being a "playgirl". It's inspiring that she is confident enough with her sexuality to sing about her love of intimacy (to put it nicely).
Tila seems like a cool chick. She seems sweet, fearless and understanding. As gorgeous as she is, she still seems down to earth.
In summary, this woman impresses me and I think she is beautiful. She is admirable, powerful, confident and most of all, hella sexy.

Hot Guy #9
Continuing with my Hot Guy blog posts, introducing:
Hot Guy #9: Robert Downey Jr.
Hot Guy #9: Robert Downey Jr.
This guy is an older guy but he's still damn sexy.
He's been around for awhile and he's known as a badass so obviously he's hot just from that point alone. Men love him, women love him. That's the thing about RDJ.
He's gone through some hardships in his life (hence the badass thing) so because he's a survivor, he gains another hotness point.
He's also a phenomenal actor. I just watched Sherlock Holmes this weekend with my boyfriend and I cannot wait until the new one comes out. RDJ and Jude Law? They make the perfect duo and they're both very easy on the eyes ;)
Robert Downey Jr is sexy, he's respected, he's a great actor and he is loved by all sexes giving him a grade of A+. Good for you sir, keep on trucking.

Men at the Gym
I like the gym. The gym likes me. It works for me. I always knew I would like the gym and when I went for the first time last year (at the gym at my school) I knew that it would work out well for me.
However, in the last year and a bit that I've been going to the gym, I've found some things that really, very much bother me.
Not too long ago, I saw a man nearly kill himself at the gym. I don't know how many other people noticed it, but I couldn't believe what I was seeing. This man was lifting freeweights (a barbell) and after a few reps, he could not lift the barbell off his neck. He continued to roll the barbell down his entire body until he could get out from underneath. So he changed the weights to a lesser weight and continued his workout. You know what happened next? HE DID THE EXACT SAME THING AGAIN! I couldn't believe my eyes. The moral of this story: do not try to lift more weights than you are able to. It is not risk strangling yourself with barbells to show off how many weights you can't lift.

It is not risk strangling yourself with barbells to show off how many weights you can't lift.
The same day of this almost-suicide, I saw a guy on a weight machine, purple in the face, essentially making this face:
The reason behind this face: THE WEIGHTS ARE TOO HEAVY! You should not have to contort your face into this ^ to lift the weights. Girls are not as guilty of this gym crime. I think most girls understand that they would rather look like pansies lifting 20lbs in weights than pull a fucking muscle!
I'm tired of going to the gym and seeing people almost injure themselves. People that have absolutely no idea how to use the equipment and do not check the instructions or ask. It pays to know what you're doing at the gym, so check it out before you go!
I'll continue going to the gym and I'll continue trying to get healthier, and I'm sure I'll never run out of people to get angry at at the gym.
My Fashion Dilemma
I'm not a fashion expert, I don't claim to be. I know a bit about fashion after watching multiple seasons of America's Next Top Model, Project Runway and other fashion related shows. I do know though, that I would love to dress better than I currently do.
I'm a big fan of the "basics" when it comes to clothes. You know, jeans, tshirts, pullovers, stuff like that. But I've always wanted to be one of those reall ywell dressed women that wear skirts, dresses and even heels everyday.
Here's my problem though: I either can't pull off the trends that are in nowadays or I think that everyone's going to judge me for trying to look nicer on a regular basis.
There are problems with both of these thoughts of mine however.
Firstly, the trends that they have today are relatively simple and easy to pull off so it's basically my own insecurities that are holding me back from participating in the cute trends of today's fashion world. (Although when it comes to rubberboots, I just don't think I can pull off that look like fashionable people).
Second, I'm an idiot for thinking that everyone's going to judge me. As one of my best friends told me "People aren't going to look at a nicely dressed person and say 'I can't believe how good she looks? Who does she think she is?'" If I dress nicely, most likely the only thing people are going to say (most likely) is that I look good (if I pull off the trends).
In the last few days I've been trying to dress in dresses and boots and I've felt great about myself and I think other people have noticed.
From this point onwards I'm going to put more effort into the way I dress and attempt to look more professional and sophisticated.
I'm hoping this works out for the best.

Babeshow
Over the reading week I realized something. I watched Just Go With It, with Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston and I noticed what a complete stunner Jennifer Aniston is. I always thought she was pretty but some of the closeups of this woman in that movie made me understand that she is a truly beautiful woman.
She has the most incredible hair (as we all know, Rachel's hair in Friends was one of the most popular requests in hair salons around the world) and her eyes are shockingly beautiful.
This woman is badass, especially her character in Horrible Bosses. She's a definite siren in that movie, with her dark hair, bangin' bod and bright eyes.
Now I have to hand it to her, she's gorgeous and she's in her 40s! She barely looks older then she did when she was doing Friends. I don't know what her secret is, but she could go up against a 20-something any day and easily pull away with the prize.
I have a new-found respect for this woman. I love her. She's got a sweet body and she has one of the most beautiful faces. Jennifer Aniston, do us all a favour and stay as lovely as you are forever and ever.

Unbelievable
I came across this post on my homepage today. It was an article about how women are only attractive for the first 2 hours of the day, on a regular basis.
Again I was hoping to find at the end of the article that women shouldn't stress too much about this, or any words of comfort to the women who read the article, but they didn't come. So obviously due to this I ended up feeling much worse about myself as I read this.
Now I'm not a horribly insecure person, in fact I find myself a relatively confident for a young woman, but like all other women I have my insecurities and personal flaws. And this article tore me to shreads. How could you make a woman feel any worse then by implicitly saying "It doens't matter how much time you spend on yourself in the morning to make yourself feel good or look presentable to the rest of the world, it's not going to pay off and everyone's going to think you're ugly by 11:00 anyway"?
This article is horrible and why they thought it would be a good idea to publish it, I have no idea.
So essentially the effort women put into their appearance on a daily basis is a waste of time and everyone thinks we're ugly no matter how hard we try to look good. Unless of course you're one of those super hot model types that every man goggles over.
I can't explain the anger that this article brings up in me, how shitty it makes me feel.
Cheers to the confidence boost... I think I'll shave my head and throw in the towel now.
Now as offensive as I found this, I gave the article the benefit of the doubt and thought maybe they would make up for/explain what they meant by that later in the article, so I read it.
Yeah, I was wrong.
The article says (if you don't want to read it) that women are attractive until about 10:03 am or something, and that people start to notice that they look more dishevelled and "much worse" as the day goes on.Again I was hoping to find at the end of the article that women shouldn't stress too much about this, or any words of comfort to the women who read the article, but they didn't come. So obviously due to this I ended up feeling much worse about myself as I read this.

It's Been Awhile
I apologize for not having written in awhile. Not that anyone noticed or even cared, but I'm still sorry. I'll try to be more diligent about my blogging from this point onwards.

Hot Guy #8
So I know I said I'd be posting a hot guy every day, yet I've been busy and been at home so I hvaen't posted anything in a few days. My sincerest apologies to my many followers.
Hot Guy #8: Ryan Gosling.
This man is a stone-cold fox. He's Canadian, he's a musician and he's a sexy actor. I'm not typically a fan of blondes, but he is H-O-T, HOT! And his body is incredible.
I originally saw this guy on Breaker High when he was younger and he was the cutest thing. Super cute! Since then I've seen him in many more things, his most famous role probably being The Notebook.
I have never really been a fan of The Notebook either, I'm not a huge sucker for romantic movies like that. It's good, don't get me wrong and he is definitely the best part of it. All manly and scruffy and burly.
He's also got a wicked band that makes groovy, awesome music. He did a song with JC Chasez and Justin Timberlake when he was younger and it was the cutest thing ever! He sings like an angel.
Ryan Gosling most definitely earns a solid A+ because of his superb sexiness, Canadianism and musical talent. Ryan, look me up.

Hot Guy #7
This hot guy is actually a pair of hot guys, but I'm going to include them both together, because they're always together in the context that I know them in.
Hot Guy(s) #7: Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement
These guys are the hilarious New Zealand duo from Flight of the Conchords. If you don't know this show, you are seriously missing out on some vital humour in your life.
Two struggling musicians living in New York City, they try to make ends meet while trying to hit it big in the big city. A little spoiler for you: This doesn't happen. In fact, the show ends with them being shipped off back to New Zealand. Very sad for those fans that wanted more from them.
The songs that they do to correspond with the show's episodes are fantastic. Obviously the songs are meant to be spoofs and meant to be funny more than anything, but they're actually fairly catchy too. "Too Many Dicks on the Dancefloor" may sound shitty, but it's a good one, I promise.
Their characters are complete morons who are far too naive to be living in a city like NYC. Which of course makes the show 100% funnier.
Their accents are strangely sexy too. It's hard to take them seriously as sexy men when they're so dumb, but they are too cute, and Jemaine is really big and burly. A true man. Plus, the jokes would not be half as funny if they didn't have the accents.
So basically this has been more of an advertisement for Flight of the Conchords than anything else, but if you watch this show I promise you will not be disappointed. Just don't judge it by the first episode... Kinda shitty... But it gets better!
Even though I included them together, I'm going to give them separate marks.
Bret gets a B+. He's cute, but kinda scrawny and he is the extremely naive one. How else would they get him to dress up as the human cond-om? He also hasn't been in anyting else as far as I know.
Jemaine on the other hand gets an A because not only is he sexy and manly, he's been in some movies outside FOTC and he's the funnier one... I think anyway.
Jemaine and Bret, I miss you. Please come back to TV soon, preferrably with another season on FOTC. Or with an FOTC movie...
Hot Guy(s) #7: Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement
Two struggling musicians living in New York City, they try to make ends meet while trying to hit it big in the big city. A little spoiler for you: This doesn't happen. In fact, the show ends with them being shipped off back to New Zealand. Very sad for those fans that wanted more from them.

Small Tallk
Have you eve caught yourself listening to the little conversations people around you are having. I don't mean to evesdrop (sp?), really! I just catch myself hearing snippets of the things people talk about. And I can't help but laugh sometimes.
The other day I heard a girl telling a friend of hers that her cat is huge and last time she took it to the vet they needed like 5 people to hold it down to give it a shot. All I could think was, is this really what people talk about with each other? Is this what I sound like when I tell my friends things about my cats? Do I sound like a moron who has nothing else to talk about?
I'm not claiming I'm not a moron, and I'm not even making fun of this girl who was talking about her super-human cat. It was just funny for me to hear.
The worst is when you hear younger girls (again I'm not claiming I've never done this) talking about textual conversations they've had. I work at a coffee shop and sometimes it's hard to NOT overhear the things people are talking about.
Once I was sitting at work, having finished all the jobs I had to do at the time, and I heard this girl that had to be around the same age as myself (17-20) telling her friend something along these lines:
"So I text him asking him if he still wanted to hang out. And he was like, yeah, but I don't know if I can. And I was like, well I mean if you don't want to hang out just tell me so. And he was like, yeah, I don't know, I guess I want to but I've just been busy."
And I find myself wondering again, is this what I sound like? This story was terrible to listen to, I won't lie. I was bored, I can't even imagine what this girl's friend was feeling like. Maybe she had no feelings because she was probably asleep...
But I just ask, that next time you're out and about around large groups of people, try to pick up snippets of what people are saying. If they're talking about serious things, like a girl's boyfriend cheating on her or something, I don't suggest listening to that once you've found out what it is. But if they're simply making small talk, just listen and see what kinds of obscure, entertaining things people say to one another. You might hear some funny ones here and there.
And if you do hear some funny ones, please let me know 'cause goodness knows we can all use a laugh.

Hot Guy #6
This is a recent one that I've only just come to realize. Here he is.
Hot Guy #6: Seth MacFarlane
I was watching the Charlie Sheen Roast, who Seth MacFarlane happened to be hosting. After a few minutes, I realized, this guy is a fox! He's good looking and has a sexy sexy voice.
Like most people in the world, I'm a big Family Guy fan. The show is great, funny, sometimes overdone, but still highly entertaining. I've watched most of the epidsodes and laughed at most of them. But I never thought much of the man behind the action. I know he voices some of the characters, but I never took much notice of Seth.
It seems weird hearing his voice while looking at him in person. I'm used to hearing it come from Brian Griffin's mouth on Family Guy, obviously, so it just seems strange.
But the more I look at him and hear him speak, the more I like him. He's obviously hilarious and I'm sure his standup is phenomenal.
But that's all I have to say about this slightly mysterious man. He's known as the creator of Family Guy, but he hides behind the show. He's not all flashy and in-your-face, which I like.
Seth MacFarlane, you're a hottie, and you get a B+. Why? Because you're behind the scenes and I don't know who you are. But you're a stone-cold fox and if you want to give me a call to discuss your rating, feel free. What I wouldn't give to have that voice talk to me for an hour...

Hot Guy #6
Another Gossip Girl hottie.
Hot Guy #6: Chace Crawford
This guy is smokin' hot! He plays Nate Archibald on GG which is the only thing I've seen him in. I know he did a movie called The Haunting of Molly Hartley, but let's be honest, I'm not going to watch that.
I love him on GG. His character is a little bit boring, but he has some of the sexiest scenes on the show. And no question as to why. I was so distracted by Ed Westwick (Chuck) the first few seasons that I didn't remember to watch for Nate and his hotness. I watched the first two seasons last year and finally got to appreciate Chace Crawford's captivating good looks.
I'm pretty sure he's dated/hooked up with almost every female character on the show. I never thought about it before but he i the biggest player ever!
So anyway, I had an obsession with him while rewatching the first 2 seasons of GG and it is easy for me to say that he is one of the best looking men around Hollywood right now. He just needs to find some bigger roles so I can watch his movies and drool over his perfect face and body.
Chace Crawford gets an A- because he's SUPER hot but he needs to find some bigger and better roles! Hurry up, Chace! I'm waiting (not so) patiently over here!

Hot Guy #5
I don't know a lot about this guy, but I do know he was a straight up babe when he was young! And alive... Anyway, ladies and gentlemen may I introduce...
Hot Guy #5: Marlon Brando (in the black and white days)
This picture says it all. Here he is, in all his glory in A Streetcar Named Desire. He plays the biggest asshole EVER (he beats his wife and rapes her sister. Cool right?) But I can forgive him that 'cause he is just so damn sexy.
Look at this picture for a minute. Appreciate that glory. Look at the big arms, the badass expression on his face, how sweaty he is. Mmm. Imagine being all sweaty with young Marlon Brando.
Granted he didn't look so great in the last few years of his life... I don't want to speak ill on this great man, but he kinda let himself go. See: Don Juan deMarco (good enough to watch just because you get to see Johnny Depp being all sexy and charming)
Now I have only seen these two movies (Don Juan and Streetcar) but I know he did The Godfather and countless other movies. The Godfather isn't exactly my type of movie, so you'll have to excuse me for saying I'll probably never watch it. I'm sure he did a great job though.
So young Marlon Brando earns the mark of a B+. I can't really get over what an asshole he plays in Streetcar and he let himself go later, but in his prime, this guy could really make the girls drop some eggs, if you know what I'm sayin'.
In fact, just looking at this picture does just that for me...

Hand to Temple in the Shape of an Imaginary Gun
I put together another little rant during the class I had with the computer-challenged prof today.
Class presentations are not a new invention in univeristy. We've been doing them since grade school. Yet they seem so foreign to some university students.
I understand that presentations can be intimidating, stressful, nerveracking, etc. But I have grown very tired of the shitty presentations some student's give.
I'm certainly not claiming to be an expert at class presentations but I at least make the effort to avoid boring my class to death and making critical mistakes that dock me marks.
If you're going to give a handout, make a PowerPoint or whatever, please for goodness sake do not write word for word what you're going to say to the class. If you do this, I may as well read directly from the handout, PowerPoint or whatever. There's no point in you even standing in front of the class. In fact, you'd be better to just sit down if this is the case because everyone's going to hear (read) what you have to say anyway and it will save you the stress of publlic speaking. However, as the presentation portion of a presentation is slightly more important than a handout, you may lose marks for sitting down and telling everyone simply to read your handout.
My advice to you is simple: Just avoid this situation by not writing exactly what you're going to say on the handout. That's what cue cards are for. The handout gives the gist, you provide the real info and evidence.
And here you have my rant of shitty class presentations that some students make us sit through, with our hands to our temples, in the shape of an imaginary gun.

Houston, we have a problem
Another one of my pet peeves is people that do not understand the basics of operating a computer.
A professor of a university for instance should know how to turn up the volume on the computer.
So my opinion is that if a prof is going to operate a computer at ANY time during the school year in class, they should know at least the basics of using a computer.
Your lack of knowledge of operating a computer has absorbed 20 minutes of class time that I am paying A LOT of money for.
More frustrating than having my money wasted on you not knowing how to play a DVD is having to explain how to move the mouse across the screen, and the prof just sitting there, saying "I don't know what to do..."
This is all I have to say. I have exhausted my anger with this rant.
I am happy again.

My Furry Little Friends
I mentioned this in my Bucket List, but I want to hold a squirrel at some point in my life. Sounds random, I know, but there are so many squirrels at my school and they're all so cute and friendly, that I decided I want to hold one (and not be attacked preferrably).
I used to always think that if I were to come back as an animal, I would consider being a squirrel. And then I realized how often they get hit by cars and decided on an owl instead. Have you ever heard of an animal that preys on owls? No! Because there are none! Those flying creatures are magnificent. They can turn their heads around, fly, they're beautiful (minus those ones that look like they flew high-speed into a brick wall) and just bad-ass in general. Not to mention a key animal in Harry Potter.
Anyway, I'm getting off topic. Squirrels.
Me and some of my friends at school have tried to lure them with trail mix and fruit and stuff and we've actually come pretty close to them. I've always chickened out though, especially after my older brother reminded me that they will probably bite me if I try to put my hands around one.
But now you know my enjoyment of squirrels. They're one of my favourite things of my campus and I love to see them frolicking around at this time of year collecting nuts and shit.
So cool. One day squirrel, I will hold you in my arms.

Hot Guy #4
I'm going to go with another slightly obscure man today. He is lesser known, but very well recognized in my world.
Hot Guy #4: Ed Westwick
Who is this guy? He's Chuck Bass. Still need an elaboration? He is a star character on Gossip Girl, the best show in existence. He's devilish, charming, dark and brooding. A woman's true fantasy. Tall, dark and handsome? He's your guy, in more than just looks.
He's British too. Hello?! Accents are sexy, especially British, Irish and Scottish ones. Oh, and he plays in a band. Enough said.
Being on Gossip Girl, he's very successful and rich, so of course he's well dressed and it drives me wild when he wears purple. Oh me, oh my, when he wears purple, my pulse quickens. He can pull off a suit better than anyone I've ever seen. James Bond has got nothing on this guy.
If you're not already watching this show, I suggest you start, 'cause you're missing out on more sexiness than just Ed, here (other GG hotties will be soon to follow in my "Hot Guy" blogs).
Oh, and have you SEEN the hair on is chest? Droooool.
The downside is that I think he smokes (gross) and he was dating one (my lest favourite) actress from the show, who I've heard is an utter idiot in real life.
Regardless of his disgusting habits and poor choice in women, I'm still going to award Ed Westwick a good ol' A. He's hot, his character on GG is one of the best, he's sexy, British, a musician and more importantly, he NEEDS to get back together with Blair!
Ed Westwick, you can have me. Come get me Tiger! ;)

Can you pass the kleenex?
It goes without saying, I HATE being sick. It is one of those things that irks me more than most. I don't like the coughing, sneezing, sore throat, chills, tiredness, body aches, upset stomach... The list goes on as I'm sure you know.
It makes me sound like a nerd, but one of the main reasons I dislike being sick so much (besides the annoying bodily symptoms) is because I REALLY don't like missing class. And what makes it even worse is that if I go to class sick, I can't focus because I'm constantly sniffing, coughing, sneezing, mouth breathing due to my stuffed up nose... Which then causes more anxiety because I worry I'm bothering every other person in the class with my sniffing, coughing, sneezing, mouth breathing due to my stuffed up nose...
I also come from a family that doesn't believe in taking drugs to get rid of a cold. In my family, you just wait it out, take some natural remedies like echinacea (which me and my mom swear by) and drinking lots of tea/eating lots of soup. But there are times when I just want to take some drugs and pass the fuck out. I'll assume you've had those same kinds of colds too. You just want to drug yourself into a coma and only wake up in a week when you're not sick anymore.
I believe it's a miracle I haven't been sick yet this year, but I know it's coming. It always starts the same way for me. Sore throat, which progresses to sneezing/runny nose, then to a plugged up nose (which then disturbs my sleeping patterns) and then I finally start to recover.
Obviously I started popping echinacea immediately when I felt this cold coming on and I have decided to use the "wait-it-out" approach, but at this point, this cold better not fuck with me. I'm not having this right now. I refuse to let this cold get the best of me!
I'll show this cold who's boss! I'll show it that no one fucks with my immune system and gets away with it! You wait! I'll go Chuck Norris on this bitch and make it regret the day it ever messed with me!
I will fight this cold and come out VICTORIOUS!

Hot Guy #3
I'm going to switch it up today and choose a male celeb that is slightly controversial in the way of hotness. Some people may not agree with me on this, but that's okay.
Hot Guy #3: Jesse Eisenberg
Hot Guy #3: Jesse Eisenberg
I watched Adventureland last night and that is one of the reasons I am choosing to post this today.
This guy is totally cute, as well as being very sexy in some way. He tends to play the same kind of character, but switches it up from time to time (See: The Social Network). He plays kinda dorky, sarcastic characters that are deep, sensitive and very intelligent. All of those qualities, I love, even if it is just him playing a character.
Another reason I like this guy is because he is like a super-hybrid of Michael Cera. It sucks that he's not Canadian like Michael Cera but I find him more entertaining and not as monotonous.
His movies are bomb:
- The Social Network
- Zombieland
- Adventureland
- 30 Minutes or Less
- Cursed (many people may have forgotten about this, but not me)
He is thoroughly entertainig to watch and I find myself swooning over him while watching his movies. I'm a sucker for the way he treats women in his movies (save for, The Social Network because he's an asshole in that one).
This picture of him is quite nice, and I don't think anyone can deny he has style.
Jesse Eisenberg receives an A-. He loses marks for being American and playing the same character a lot, but he's hot, sexy and romantic in his movies. For these reasons, I refuse to miss one of his movies in the future.

Blog, blag, bloog, blip, blop, BLOG!
I definitely cannot get enough of blogging right now. I just want blog all day, all night, all my life! And the best part is, I could if I wanted to! Because this is about me! I can write whatever I want and it doesn't have to be for anyone, not even me!
I totally stole this from a friend on FB, but I like it so I thought I'd post it as well! This is what I mean. This doesn't have to have a purpose. I liked it, I blogged about it. Why I never created a blog before I do not know. Shout out to my girl Brigitte who gave me the advice to start a blog and I'm so glad I did.
I know I said this before, but if you're reading my blog for the first time, hope you enjoy it and if you keep coming back, thank you friends for enjoying my random thoughts.
I'd love to say I do this for you, but we both know that's not true. I just said I do this for me.
Blog, bloog, blap, blop, bip, boop, blip, BLOG!
Hot Guy #2
Hot Guy #2: Chris Evans
From what I have heard about this guy in public, he is super nice. Oh and anyone can see from looking at him that he's UNBELIEVABLY hot! Look at this picture for instance; he's all sexy looking with his angry face, and those abs, and that bum... *sigh* I could look at him all day and not get tired of it.
He's also been a few good movies:
- Captain America: The First Avenger
- Not Another Teen Movie
- The Perfect Score
- Cellular
Not all of these have been hits, but I thought they were pretty good. And he's hot so I can't complain.
Chris Evans receives a solid A+ because he's got a good face, body and I haven't heard anything negative about him thus far.
Break me off a piece of that!

Hot Guy #1
I've decided I will post a picture of a man I find stunningly attractive every day, for the forseeable future. Because let's face it, all women love looking at pictures of hot men.
Hot Guy #1: Ryan Reynolds
Hot Guy #1: Ryan Reynolds
He is not necessarily my top favourite male celebrity but he is one of them. I can't exactly choose favourites for the best looking men because there are so many of them, and I seem to change my mind too often. But Ryan Reynolds is a name I hear often of women describing the hottest male celebrity, so I decided to go with him first.
This man is not only chiseled within an inch of his life, but he is also Canadian and was married to Scarlett Johansson. His characters in movies are often charming, sarcastic and witty and those are all qualities I dig in a man.
Some of my favourite movies that he has been in include (but are not limited to):
- Adventureland
- National Lampoon's Van Wilder
- The Proposal
- Just Friends
- Definitely, Maybe
This man is a stunner and worthy of any woman's attention and longing. He receives a solid A+ in my books.
Ryan Reynolds, I salute you and your beautiful good looks.
