wtf
I’m sitting at my kitchen table stressed out writing my personal statement for some graduate programs and my aunt is drunk texting me. NMP. Happy 2012, y’all!
Also, since when did sparkly dress = New Year’s Eve dress??? I don’t recall this happening in the 90’s. Bye.

What are you doing this New Year's Eve?
Before I start writing my master’s program essay, I’m watching “Strange Sex: The Year’s Best” on TLC. So far there was a paralyzed man with a surrogate penis, which is now his thumb, and a man who is turned on by balloons (called looners). NMP.I find it weird that TLC also has innocent shows like “Toddlers and Tiaras” and “What Not to Wear”. If...

#prayforkaty is currently trending on Twitter →
Congrats- Katy Perry and Russel Brand made it just in time to be a part of the big joke that is 2011. I think we can officially say that 2011 was, in fact, a joke. Problems. Goodbye/good riddance, 2011.

Nmp nmp nmp.
I guess the holidays I should really worry about are yet to come: New Year’s Eve/Day and V-Day. Blech! The worst was a girl who got engaged over Thanksgiving (!!!) and her status was “So thankful for my NEW FIANCE!”.

An update for anyone who cares
My mouse stopped working. That’s it. So all I had to do was buy an attachable mouse (instead of paying $100+ to get the touchpad, etc replaced), although Apple charged me $50+ and I think I can get a cheaper one elsewhere. My sister went out of town for the day and left me with her computer, thank god.
My computer is from 2007, so I’m probably going to watch it deteroriate, which is...

Bad luck?
In the past 24 hours, my printer ran out of ink when I needed to print stuff asap for my job around midnight and now my computer is messed up (I can’t click on anything after rebooting multiple times). This is great (by that I mean terrible) because:
a. I am applying to grad schools. The deadlines are all coming up in January, so I wanted to work on them now while work is dying down.
b. I...

A freak of nature (?)
I feel like I am one of the only females who does not like manicures. I used to be a big brat and demand manicures when my friends had bat mitzvahs and other junior high events, but ever since high school I can’t stand them. Why have someone else paint your nails when you can do a decent job yourself? I also dislike people touching my hands constantly and since I’m a germaphobe, it...

I think HR departments are finally getting off...
I received about 5 rejections this week from jobs/companies that I applied to months ago. Gotta get them over and done with before 2012! Just in time for the holidays! How nice. What’s your problem??
Kiss my ass.

Children overheard at the local fast food joint
“Would you assassinate him or me?”- a table of boys
“MOM! I NEED MORE MONEY!”- girl from the arcade room screaming to her mom. Me too.
Not my problem. The joy of the ‘burbs.

“Hi!”
– That’s all that was in a message I received on the dating site. After all of this, I really can’t take it seriously and now I think I only do it for entertainment, which is slightly wrong, but these men have made it a big joke! Nmp. Don’t send a girl an essay, but give her...

“Don’t go Xmas shopping now unless you wanna kill someone else or yourself”
– A facebook friend’s status that made me laugh out loud. This will probably be my problem since I’m leaving now to go to a lovely shopping mall full of people. Here I go…
Not your problem.
EDIT: It was actually amazing. If you go late enough there’s tons of great parking...

719-26-OATES
A friend sent me this number via this blog today and I can’t stop calling it. Even though I’m sitting at my computer (aka easy access to music) I still call Callin’ Oates and listen to full songs. NMP. I wish “You Make My Dreams” was one of the songs. I added it to my address book so I can call it if I ever want to appear to be talking on the phone since I would do...

What I watched on Monday night
1. Kendall’s Sweet 16. Of course I watched, although I remembered to turn on the tv when it was halfway finished. Kendall and Kylie seem like they are being groomed to be the next Kim and Kourtney. Yikes. And yes, I cried during her video montage by Kylie for some reason. Childhood just gets to me. It was also a nice touch that Kendall did not want alcohol at her party, however Kris...

“James Franco’s tired James Dean act got an NYU professor booted from the school...”
– NYU professor claims school fired him for giving James Franco a “D” - NYPOST.com
I think a lot of people could get Master’s degrees if they didn’t have to show up to class and the school fired anyone that gave them less-than-stellar grades.

Other things
Last night
We tried to go to the oldest bar in Wrigleyville (Yeah, yeah, look it up), but I insisted on driving because it was too cold to walk. Since there is never any parking around there, of course I did not find a spot and ended up driving to another neighborhood. While looking for parking, we saw a drunken man pass out and fall into the street and almost get hit by a cab in Boystown,...

Self-pitying post
I feel like this is one of the first years I was not invited to a Christmas party (Not a cookie exchange, but a drunken holiday party). Forever alone. I was going to go out, but I worked all day and have a big headache (Weekend workers, where you at?).
I also watched the Illini women’s volleyball team lose in the NCAA championship on tv. Boo. Bball also lost. Boo sports today.
Lame night...

Message #1:
Well [neighborhood] it is :-) Msg me if you wana chat sometime
I don’t know how this guy found out the neighborhood because I never mentioned it and it says that my location is only Chicago…creepy. Don’t creep women out by talking about where they live. Also, give me something to message you about and as a personal preference, I dislike it when men use smiley faces...

Thank you Zoey for annoying me yet again.
Blech, if you think this is a great show please reevaluate your life. I will never trust your life decisions. What’s your problem? Just like lists, I never understand award shows.

10 Least Fascinating People list (why was this... →
When I read the names on the homepage- Katy Perry, Donald Trump, Simon Cowell, Herman Cain, and the Kardashians- I thought those were some of the least fascinating people. Turns out they’re on the fascinating list somehow. Nmp nmp nmp. If you’ve been following NMP, by now you should know that I never understand so called official lists (college lists, most bike friendly cities list,...

WatchOmg. Yes. A preview of the Drew Peterson Lifetime Original Movie starring Rob Lowe/Chris Traeger. January 21.
Whenever I drive through Bolingbrook (for some reason my family always stops at their Denny’s for breakfast when we’re on a road trip) I always look around for Drew Peterson (is he in jail?). Problems. I also wonder if Lifetime could be accused of slander for their original...
