Haven't Blogged in a while so heres whats up in my life

Im dating

And Jenny is awesome!

Oh Stephen Jones, defense attorney for Timothy McVeigh, spoke in symposium today and it was awesome. In fact im buying his book and reading it, because I've listened to the speech he gave today like three times ITS SO AWESOME!!

My life is kinda getting awesome I guess...

Except for one thing

This show is a metaphor/allegory for my life (and im using a multiplicitive my here) Heres why

1. Buffy and Jenny look, act, and talk way to much alike
2. I am referred to as the ginger with a soul, Angel is the only Vampire with a soul
3. Other people are the exact same as people in the show (can't say because of awk-ness)
4. Their High-School drama is close to our college drama and im just now in the season when their college freshman year starts 
5. Oh other reasons also unmentionable.

Found this pic and like it for some reason

No school tomorrow cause of snowpocolipse so im staying up till three to watch new episodes on hulu

and really wish Jenny hadn't hurt herself so we could play in the snow tomorrow. 

SO here is another picture of Jenny cause I can without being creepy!!!

or not it wouldn't load creepy

So goodby

POPE's, PONDS, & PRIVATE PARTIES

First since I am Pope (of at least the Awk Hour) these are the new rules for reading

1. ALL CAPS WORDS ARE READ LOUDLY
2. Bolded words are read deeply
3. italicized words are read quickly
4. Names are read wrong, Especially when you are given Pronunciations (pruh-nuhn-see-ey-shuh-s)
5. "Quoted" words are read with air Quotes
6. Words that are read differently one time are read differently forever. Meaning that soon everything will be fun to read even "KUHN" (coo-nuh)

Ponds are self explanatory (even though there is only one) and there will be splashing in it later tonight!

"FOREBODING" 

Private Parties is about to be ambiguous

1st of all, I really like being alone at times like I just wann hide from the world and watch crappy TV on Hulu. (did you watch it?)  cause I haven't yet idk if its a good episode)

Secondly, I have recently learned that MUSIC is AWESOME! It has the ability to say what you're thinking without you realizing it, and it brings people very close together.

Thirdish, small groups of people are more fun than large "movie like" parties where you know no one, and cannot have one on one conversations. 

Forth and finally, I love Judd theater (no explanation necessary)

This blog is short but I made a really long status update so they balance out 

Right??

Any Questions?

stumbled on a funny quote picture website so blogging my favorites

HAHA, oh! wait that didn't work

When will people learn not to mess with me

they simple aren't that good at it...

Then again

I tried an amazing prank the other night that didn't go quite as well as the two of us had planned.

but still heres a few pointers for how to pull off a great prank

1. PLAN, never just do, work it all out before hand Murphy's law is always in effect
2. Make it Simple, use believable (or even true) facts to set up the big twist
3. Tell No One/or Everyone, if you're pranking multiple people tell only those who are helping you, If you're only going after one person tell everyone who will be there.
4. Don't Change, once you've started one idea stick with it, any variation will make you loose credibility. 
5. Roll with the Punches, if people express disbelief simply go with it, fight through their reactions with specifics
6. Don't Make Mistakes, If someone is supposed to be gone, make them disappear, if something physical is happening, prove it!
7. PLAN, yes its on twice. 

Oh and you can disregard parts of the previous posts parts of them were an attempt to mislead you all for a prank that didn't work 

but was still fun, minus the slapping, other parts were fun.

SO heres to the first blog after things have changed And heres to many more under new headings!!

What do to when the world has gone Insane, and other probably useless advice.

Another ambiguous blog thats not entirely from my point of view.

when the world goes crazy what do u do? When everything is spinning out of control except for (this is gonna sound cheesy) except for those few things, your north star, your firm foundation, the counterpoint, or cornerstone.

There is as far as i've been able to tell only three options (theres probably a whole lot more) these are all the ones I have used I'm not advocating any of these in fact they all kinda sucked but its what i know and some are probably better than others.

1. Shut down= literally stop everything and try to focus. You don't start avoiding ur friends You don't not hang out with people you simply become distant you show up but seem like your not there. I always seem a bit harsher when I have shut down. 
2. Act=pretend nothing is wrong, bottle up all your stress and emotional ughness and pretend nothing is wrong. The difficulty with this is you have to be a good actor, you have to be soo good you convince yourself that its not an act be prepared to not realize why your so angry at random times. and this also opens it up for you to trick yourself into pulling a number three
3. Run the other direction=go back to something familiar, something that once gave you comfort. Run away from what ever is causing the stress instead of working through it. sometimes this can work sometimes its even needed, but be careful with this one because you dont know how much you have already fooled yourself and need to try and take an objective viewpoint

well there you have it my psycho babbel spiel for the day 

so here we go with other points of view

how difficult are secrets to keep? I mean to say that holy crap their hard to keep its kind of insane. Another blog I read recently suggested that it would be a good idea if everyone had selective telepathy I disagree.

If we had telepathy the world would suck painful thoughts would be bare for all to see awkward questions would be asked of everyone in the room. no one can control their own mind enough to share every thought with other people. So if we have selective telepathy nothing would be different we would still keep the same secrets and hold back the same thoughts, so it would be kind of equally pointless. 

but reading minds would be fun as long as I was the only one who could. 

and one more

when everything has changed what has really changed?

labels, places, names, responsibility, distance, acceptable actions, age, train of thought, 

the way you feel (does this ever change?)

but what has changed that really matters?

True identity, purpose, God, the way you feel (no i didn't make a mistake)

I think the truth is that there are very few moments of legitimate "change" in our lives. Therefore we aspire to be an ever changing people and claim to be dynamic individuals. But i think were fooling ourselves people don't really ever change in any way that matters. 

I know that seems cynical but hey im a cynic

and also it might be a quote from House or some other TV show 

Now don't hear me (or rather this personality you don't know if its me or not ha) wrong, People can change and change massively, but it takes an outside force of un-imaginable power to do so. 

So God or something directly from God like????

Love

cause after all God is Love

Ha! I astound myself sometimes with my retarded musings that start from nowhere and end up having a point.

Ok off to finish work I probably shouldn't have put off (after epicifying the title of course)

Im Blogging too much

I HATE music

• it makes me focus on things I dont want too
• it makes me look stupid walking back from work singing
• it says things better than I can
• and it is distracting

I need some serious help

I know I put this on Facebook but I find it Funny enough to post twice
+ now its edited

You're walking down a long sidewalk
someone else is going the opposite direction
at first you look down
then, after you think you might hit something, up
then to one side or the other
but no matter what you do there is always that one moment
where you awkwardly make eye contact and then quickly look away


This is like the funniest and somehow most random awkwardness ever!


also I feel like I should post one of these photos because despite all my objections and hatred of the event they turned out really good.

We all look so creepy its awesome!

Im looking foreword to the next one both because there will be no make-up and because Stephen will be tortured hahahahahaha!

For more check out these album links

1 2 3 4 5 6

six is on there just to mess with you lol

But who am I kidding i've blogged like five times in the last two days no one is still reading these

so I can say anything I want

Ok for the first time ever I've got nothing!

I just had a thought! im not posting this now Im gonna leave it open until tomorrow morning so it doesn't look like I have no life and posted thrice in a day!

But now that I said that no one will believe me and I decided awhile ago not to delete anything I've written on here. YAY strike through!!

you can still read it can't you?

oh well

I need a cable cord! the comedy night if the century has started back tonight and I can't see it till tomorrow when ill be doing interviews for my talon story UGH.

So tonight I realized people (including myself) are more mature than I give them credit for

I accidentally brought up an extremely awkward topic tonight a topic that in high-school would have sent both parties the other direction but instead we had and incredibly adult conversation and went right back to normal I FREAKING LOVE COLLEGE especially the people I hang out with for some reason they are all very mature for their age and yet they hang with me uh oh this is going back to the conspiracy theory...

Ok im posting it dont care if anyone reads 

ha

BOREDOM and frustration

who new a half day of class could be so quiet I mean everyones out of class why are we all using this time to sleep, and why are so many people not on Facebook, this seems like the day everyone would be trolling the pointless social network site for an ease to boredom.

But apparently im the only irresponsible college student. HA nvr mind thats preposterous.

wait that just means that there all plotting against me some how

AHHHHHH now im scared. I don't like this at all.

Ha look what I just stumbled upon

ok why do I keep stumbling into these anguish inducing quotes?

and turning over a new leaf...Ranting

All of you need to watch CougarTown wait dont stop reading let me explain.

the show is not about Cougar's at all, in fact the show is more like a new friends with both more and less maturity. It is great at addressing awkward truths behind stupid social norms or stupid ideas. 

Oh and It's sooooooo FUNNY!

umm more random discussion before I fall into more ugh discussion

uhh stumble?

nope more useless crap im now going to work for a ridiculously long time and I plan on being mad that i have to be there the whole time 

oh wait heres something

Based on my blog I fit into all categories I think I agree

So heres a  Great Average small bored and frustrated ginger signing off

awkward and artsy apathetic assurance of aught

?

dosen't that describe life perfectly

just

I feel so lost at times like the people standing in the curve of this awesome crop circle. I can't really see the end result even though I know what im supposed to do with my life both On a grand scale, and for many things and on a distinct small scale. but there are things i don't see, no direction in times when i know what i want, and what i feel, but dont know that its what is best.

The strangest part of all this is that i've made my decision and still have no closure.

Ok enough artsy ramblings

lets get to some fun stuff.

nvr mind I just tried to read this out loud and it made no sense to me, and I wrote it . who invented punctuation these stupid dots dashes smeared dots creepy half faces strange stars curvy lines with dots and other stupidity

. - , : ; * ? ( )

i hate it all (mostly because i use it wrong) but hey who cares

i certainly don't i didn't even fix all the eyes (haha i mean i's) in this blog as a tribute to my apathetic state of mind. im now going to add a few more a words to the title it started out as just "assurance of aught" lets see how many words it gets too

see ya.

nope im back the alliterative title is much longer now!

so idk what i wanna talk about but im trying to avoid work like the plague because i need a night of sanity which is why im going to bed before curfew!! i know it seems impossible right? i will be asleep no later 1 or die trying. hmm? that would be effective if i die theres no more school or awkwardness between good friends. holy crap did i just say that? man my mind is GONE ok signing off and getting some shut eye.

WOW

stumbled one time (ok like forty but in stumbleupon counting thats almost one) and got a discripton of my life

Blogging twice because life is insanity.

Dire apt occurrences & sundry sentiments

Would have been the title for this blog but its not haha

This blog will be intentionally oblique because it may or may not be about potential readers.

My life is a story, I guess all live are but mine (and my roommates, for more ambiguity I will be referring to both of our lives as mine) is something everyone would enjoy laughing at. I (and everyone in my life) seem to have the worst timing in all things... literally all things.

From adorative quadrangles to exceedingly lengthy emotional preparations, my life is in shambles. This insanity makes me want to scream! I wish i had mind control or at least some form of telepathy to which allows me to get everyone to talk about these issues. I dont want to pull an I'd like every decision to be made Uninfluenced. But no decision is going to be made as long as everyone keeps not discussing things openly.

Yet at the same time im blogging intentionally ambiguously, UGH

In the words of  from 30 Rock "i'll wait, Not forever"

This is not an ultimatum it is simply the only conclusion that our minds can reach at the moment. yes i went back to our this isn't all about me that would be conceded!


If a solution is found you (and im referring to the internet with that all encompassing you) will be the last to know. Sorry


because all of this should be worked out in person 


possibly hand in hand or arm's intertwined?


thats all good by

Deflated Tires, Matters of the Heart, and the Essence of stress.

Back to 3's

It is a very strange experience to have a man conversation about heart matters without crude jokes, bad advice, and retarded comparisons of past fails and successes. In fact these are so rare most people say they don't exist. Im here to tell you they do.

And not only do they exist, but they are actually quite productive and useful. However when they start you don't realize it in fact you will be halfway through trading advice and regretful stories before you realize whats going on.

This train of thought is now making me uncomfortable so I leave you with this if you find yourself in the company of someone who has a different track record than you in these issues try and start one of these mythical conversations they can be awesome...

And switching gears....

Two credit hours less should not equal double the work load, and half the sleep allotment (ok sleep deprivation not all classes fault, but who else would I blame it on?)

This extreme amount of work im only now coming to realize is... well extreme

In fact it has made me have to choose between

1.  Homework 
2. Spending time with my college family
3. Spending time with someone else

Of course I choose the only logical solution. Try and do all three!

this is not working so far because I decided to waste half an hour blogging 

im kind of an idiot

But the stress this semester is inducing has put the person next to me asleep and is taking its toll on my sanity.

and deflated tires... 

I tried to ride my bike to work today buuuuuuuuut after replacing the back inner tube the night before, it is once again flat.

I think I need a new bike 

now to wake this person up so she can help me study!

needs a photo.

be prepared this ones a Rant

I would love to be reviewing Black Swan, or the new episode of House but unfortunately something has come up.

Let me start by once again apologizing for the prank pulled by me and Stephen it wasn't in good taste.

And that will be my last apology of this rant.

I have a serious issue with people reading my blog or my Facebook status's and deciding there might be something wrong with them or that they allude to something bad (they don't), and then instead of commenting, asking a question, calling me, or looking into it by continuing to read the status or blog, they call a member of my family??

Really?

if you have their number you probably have mine. so why would you think asking my mom whats going on or my brother or sister would be faster, easier, or more accurate than asking me?

I've had a crazy day of conversations with my family that involved no specifics and no names of people calling them or asking them whats going on with Joel. Umm im sorry im right here I can field any of those questions.

and family (Biological family) I love you and appreciate all your advice but when you call to tell me something or give me said advice Use specifics!

Im trying not to sound as angry as this makes me.

If you know me well at all you know that all of this I post is not in any way morally questionable except for what I have already apologized and faced consequences for (don't believe me check out facebook photos), and that 90% is sarcastic humor.

I can only assume people are reading one or two lines of a blog post or a single status comment and making wild assumptions. Thats how rumors get started and character is ruined. Heres a suggestion read it all and then come to ME with questions or comments, or you know...don't read it!

Thanx, and I lied Im also going to apologize for the harshness of this blog i really tried to write it as nice as possible

UGH!

Yes this is an exiting ugh and an ugh ugh.

First of all i've been sickly for the last three days ugh.
Secondly some random person is staying in my dorm room tonight, anger and ? ugh
Thirdly unmentionable ugh that involves retartedly late night discussions
Fourthly psychological test ugh
Fifth no zombie duck movie today ugh
Sixth UGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH

me and stephen just came up with a theory that if any of our conversations were recorded and psychoanalyzed the shrink would commit suicide or go crazy as in the "Cycle of Mental Anguish" episode of 30 Rock

also I just watched my favorite drama movie of all time The Prestige and still dont know which person I like more UGH

that was a good ugh

Honors retreat was not looking foreword to but was actually very fun I tortured a cat
