You're Alaska!
You're big, bulky, and extremely wild. At the same time, you're rather cold and standoffish, even a loner of sorts. Taming you may be one of the last great quests of the people who do manage to find you or even seek you out. So many of them just want to plunder you for what you have of value, but there are a few, the ones who will stick with you, that truly value your rugged remoteness. As long as no one is spilling stuff on you, you are truly beautiful.

You're Thailand!
Calmer and more staunchly independent than almost all those around you, you have a long history of rising above adversity.  Recent adversity has led to questions about your sexual promiscuity and the threat of disease, but you still manage to attract a number of tourists and admirers.  And despite any setbacks, you can really cook a good meal whenever it's called for.  Good enough to make people cry.

You're One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest!
by Ken Kesey
You're crazy. This has led people to attempt to confine you to a safe place so that you don't pose a danger to yourself or others. You feel like you pose a great danger to the man (or maybe the woman) or whatever else is keeping you down. But most of the time, you just end up being observed. Were you crazy before you were confined?

this is continually being updated.

i have started a collection of post-election away messages. names have been removed to protect identities. thank you for your contributions, feel free to send me more.

~ Don't get me wrong...although I am disappointed and bewildered, I am not mad at the American people. However, I did capitalize on the outcomes to craft creative acronyms:

Overwhelmingly and
Hopelessly
Idiotic
Oafs

Festering
Lavatory
Of
Reticent
Idiots and
Deranged
Assholes

~ turns out...the majority of american voters are the dumbass, back-wood, redneck, deliverence pieces of shit the rest of the educated world thinks they are.

~ escapism...a hobby before, a habit now...

(subtle enough for you, meg?  or shall i give up and just say "fuck bush?")

~ you are all so glum about the election. you should be glad that our chances of gay terrorists having abortions are MUCH smaller.

~ All right all you republicans. You guys have everything now so you can't blame the democrats for anything that you fuck up in the next four years. Fix the country or shut the hell up.

Moving to England with my roomies. IM me if you wanna come with us.

~ UCDBlondie007: if kerry wins im not gonna be happy
   UCDBlondie007 he looks like a muppet

~ i have lost complete faith in american democracy

~ he is not, nor will he ever be my president.

~ yeah...anyone up for Canada EH?

~ feel like nothing makes a difference

~ this is for every person who yelled FUCK BUSH at me during this past election season

~ the idea of Bush continuing with another term ignites spiteful verbivorous tendencies within me

~ What a sad day in the life of America...Canada here I come.

~ Someone asked me why i was sad and i responded.....

Canada is gonna be so cold this winter!! Love to my fellow Liberals!!!!

~ We took their shit at UCSD, they laughed at us, they "Rocked the Vote", the chose to Vote rather than Die, they claimed to "Choose or Lose" and we DESTROYED THEM  

~ et tu, ohio?

~ new plan: secession

United State of NorCal anyone?
Barbara Lee can be our President

~ Like the wayward Compton youth whose homie has just been slain in a drive-by, I shall pour a bit of whiskey onto the sidewalk in memory of the passing of an America I used to love. Bush won, and I am going to cry. Welcome to the social Dark Age, people.

~ sleeping soundly, knowing that America is in good hands.
P.S. For those of you threatening to move out of the country, please do so. That kind of mentality is completely uneeded in America, and your relocation would be anything but a loss.

i love the rain!! and it's actually raining. i can see the rain drops. last night on our way back from earls at 1am it was raining pretty hard. and i jumped in every puddle along the way. i got soaked. but so did everyone else.

now playing - my confession - josh groban

i am really not good at updating this thing.

i'm sick. well, sort of. i'm much better. but the entire apartment has been sick, as well as many other people i know. but we blame it all on bryan. and when he comes over, jessica, rebecca, and i are gonna kick his ass. and i'm sure meg will help too.

i am so behind on reading and stuff, but i can't make myself read all the boring stuff i'm supposed to.

but since i have mentoring at 9am, i am going to sleep. i'll deal with my slacker tendencies tomorrow. or whenever i have time.

now playing - somebody told me - the killers; against all odds - postal service

i have pulled two all-nighters in one week.

so, let's start with wednesday. because of an s-house activity we had to be up at 5am on thursday. because we are all night owls, we decided that it would be easier to not sleep that night. we ended up at robertos, and then the children's pool to see the seals, and all that. fun.

friday night was fallfest. jimmy eat world was awesome!

so, now comes saturday night. we had sat around all day doing nothing, so at about 10pm, meg, kevin, joe-izzle and i decided to go to ovt. we called bryan while we were there, and eventually ended up at bryan's in warren. we decided to go to 7-11 for slurpees, with the goal being that since bryan was going to drive, we wouldn't have to make the 15 minute walk back to muir. so we head down to 7-11, get slurpees, steal bush-cheney signs, etc. then we decided to go to sdsu. i'm still not sure why, because the reason we went to 7-11 was so we wouldn't have to walk to muir. but we cruise around state for awhile, a cop follows us, and we find out you have to pay for parking. we decided no, and bryan gets on the 8 east. someone sees a sign for yuma, arizona, 177 miles away. kevin dares bryan to drive to yuma. since bryan has never been to arizona, he agrees. so we drive to yuma at 2:30am sunday morning.

we get there at about 5:15am, hang out at some gas stations, try to find signs to steal. start heading home at 6:30am. make a stop at la jolla shores and finally arrive back at muir at about 9:30am. hit up summit for breakfast, and then go home.

but i couldn't sleep because i had to go up to my house. so i make it home in about 50 minutes. on the way home, i'm too lazy to stop for gas, so i figured i'd get it on my way back to school.

the closest gas station is 6 miles away, off of a windy, rural road. i left my house at 6:15pm. 2 miles later, i run out of gas. i was going up a small hill, and there was very little shoulder, so i try to pull off as far as i can, but i'm still not completely off the road. people didn't like that. and of course, my cell phone didn't work there, as many cell phones don't. so i wait. and wait. and  wait. finally, after about an hour and a half, someone pulls up behind me and offers me a ride to the gas station. i get to the gas station and call my mother, who isn't home. so my grandma and brother came to pick me up and get gas for my car. and i made it back to school. except that i had to go back to escondido earlier today.

long week.
