I here by interrupt your original programming for pointless reality.  
01. So far today I've spent forty-five minutes wondering around uptown because of bad directions, had a drug test, met with Student Financial Services, picked up necessities at CVS, returned my library books, grabbed lunch from Panera, and dropped off a paper in the English department. I did all of it in the rain without an umbrella or hood and am now miserable. It's only noon and I want this day to be over. Thank God my first class was canceled, now if only the next three would be too.

02. ( Blah. Blah. Blah. Fuck My Life: The Past Month Condensed in a Single Paragraph )

03. I have so much homework to do right now that I really should be doing something other than updating my LJ, yet here I am. Yay for responsibility!

04. Who else is pissy about Kings? Because it's been a week and I still wanna cut a bitch.

05. The first picture from The Good Guy was finally released by Entertainment Weekly and I's so excited! Scott Porter! Alexis Bledel! Bryan Greenberg! In a love triangle! It's almost enough to make a girl not hate life.

ETA: Umm. You guys should rec me things. Like whatever. Fic, pic!spams, icons, sites, articles, I don't care. Show me shiny things that will make the next ten hours more bearable. Pretty please?

Nobody's answering their phones and my roommates suck and I just need to get this off my chest

I reeeeeally hate the new Facebook, FYI.  
01. Real life can be summed up in one word: Busy. All five of my classes were brutal this week since I was sick last week and fell behind. I had both of the previously mentioned job interviews, both went pretty well and I should know something by early next week. (Keep those fingers crossed! My desperation has hit an all time high.) My intern group at Time Out Chicago was also the perfect example of stupidity when we scheduled four events this week, in addition to our weekly meeting. *bangs head on desk* One was at a Blackhawks game (the Chicago hockey team) and it went well, I got two free $50 hoodies and a meal out of the deal. Tonight we're working Cinema Slapdown, an on-campus event where they show a 'controversial' movie (last month was Juno, tonight is The Passion of the Christ) and there's a referee and two speakers that debate the film. Tomorrow we're working Columbia's big Open House (yah for overwhelmed high schoolers!). Combined with a bunch of general errands/appointments/scholarship crap, this week was kind of one big ball of stress. Plus, I have two midterms, two papers, one big project, and a bunch of reading to do before class on Monday. Kill. Me. Now.

02. This whole two-year renewal trend kind of makes my life. I may be new to The Big Bang Theory but even I know that show deserves to stick around for another 44 episodes. Now if only we could get the final word on Friday Night Lights. I may have adored the finale but I would still kill for a renewal. So what if each season is only twelve episodes, it would still be twenty-two more episodes of awesomness!

03. On a related note, despite my lack of love for Lyla, I really like Minka Kelly so I'm psyched for her new show. The plot doesn't sound that interesting but I really hope it gets picked up because I already want to ship Minka/Jason Dohring like whoa. They would be so pretty! Plus, I really don't think she should be included in a fourth season of Friday Night Lights, should it get renewed. I'd much rather her get a closing arc/happy ending at college.

04. The current challenge at [info]choco_cherries ends this weekend and we've only had two entries. So write!

05. I've been anxiously waiting for the first candids of Krysten filming Gossip Girl so I was thrilled to find these when I got home from my advising appointment yesterday. (Oh, 80s fashion.) I only hope there are more to come.

06. Tyler Shields photographs a lot of random celebrities I like so I've seen his site before but I'm loving all of the Brittany/Shiloh stuff. I'm dying to ship them, already!

07. LOL @ Chace/Leighton. Those two are adorable and sooo drunk. Poor Stan just has to lurk in the background because he's not as ~famous~ as Anthony Anderson.

08. ZACH GILFORD NEEDS TO HAVE MY BABIES. For realz. That shit is adorable. AND I WILL TOTALLY "ROPE AND RIDE" JESSE PLEMONS, if you know what I mean ;) I kind of love how he sits on his hands and calls Adrianne a freak of nature. Gah, I really need to make a point to watch Chelsea Lately more. That woman is full of batshit awesome.

09. I hate to be a shameless whore but I'm still selling a lot of my television boxed sets here. There are about twelve seasons left and they're all going for $10. BTW, the three of you who already paid are getting them sent out first thing tomorrow ;)

10. I really wish all the roommates and their friends would leave. Nobody is being exceptionally annoying, but they're all loud and I could use a quit room to myself right now so I could get some work done. It kind of sucks sharing a room, especially when your roommates has a boyfriend. Though I guess it's better than being sexiled for six hours (like I was Wednesday night).

Yes, I'm aware this entry was pretty pointless.

ramble ramble ramble  
01. First off, I want to welcome my new friends to my journal! Thanks to an FNL friending meme and my own Gossip Girl meme, I've met tons of new friends. I stared to list them all out here but whoa there was way too many. So HELLO to all twenty of you.

02. ( A brief description of why my not-so-brief Monday was full of shittiness. )

03. ( The rest of the week. )

04. Fandom-wise, the capstone to my shitty Monday was checking my email to find that I didn't get the Draco/Hermione fanlisting. GREAT ENDING TO THE DAY, LIFE. I know I haven't squeed about them in forever but they have always been an OTP of mine and, more importantly, they were my first ever unconventional ship. I'm just really sad because I've waited years for a chance at that fl :(

05. I'm working on a new challenge community, because I really enjoy running [info]choco_cherries, so if you're at all into any aspect of fan fiction, could you please go fill out this little poll?

06. MY ROOMMATES CLEANED THE APARTMENT. Apparently there is a kitchen sink under all those dishes (WHO KNEW?!) and our bathroom countertops are apparently white (MIND = BLOWN). In all seriousness though, everybody should duck for cover because this means the apocalypse will surely be here any minute. is completely serious*

07. I HAVE THE BEST BFF EVER. A couple months ago Blair asked me if I liked fan fiction, completely out of the blue. I was all *blinks* "uh...." for a second before I finally spit out "yeah... why?" He was super cyptic so all I could get out of him was that it had something to do with my Christmas present. I had like two months to think about it but I was still shocked when I opened the gift bag to find three books. He bought me Every Nine Seconds, Never Tear Us Apart, and Always Have, Always Will!!! There prequels to the series and they're full of awesome, not at all like those crappy 'novel adaptions.' They fit with canon perfectly but it answers so many questions I had about little mentions made throughout the show. I'm kind of in love with them.

08. Would anyone who has it be willing to upload 'All I Need' by Radiohead for me? Pleeeease? I'd really appreciate it x a lot.

09. Speaking of music, I uploaded two Modest Mouse albums as part of Ginger's ([info]ginger_noodle) Christmas present and they're up for download here if anyone else is interested in them.

10. Last but not least, if you haven't pimped or participated in the Find a Shipping Friend Meme for Gossip Girl, please do so! It's still going strong but I'd love to see more people join in. Unlike all the other memes I've done, there haven't been as many participants but waaaay more actual friending.

It's moments like these where I really hate the cards I've been dealt.  
I wish life was like one of those games where you can just throw away your shitty cards and just keep drawing for new ones until you're satisfied. Sure, it takes a little longer, but it has to be better than this.
