Hey, one of my friends with lots of money that likes me enough to read my reckless blogging, can you buy me (& yourself so I don't have to go alone) a ticket to vidcon along with a plane ticket and probably a room at the hotel where vidcon is?!?!?!?!?! I will forreal marry you, even if you're a lady. We can go to one of them states that does gay marriages or civil unions. Except we will have to get divorced when we get to vidcon because I plan on marrying Toby Turner. So we'll have to think of another way for me to thank you forever.
VIDCON
A blog cultivated by Annabelle Barrow & she's kind of embarrassed about it, but not enough to stop posting and delete the thing.

fail sauce
I pretty much copy everything that Rosh blogs about. We did the same note on Facebook, & now that I've seen her answers, I'm curious about mine. I changed a lot in 08-09 & not in the best way. This note was written right in the middle of that time. I hope I've changed for the better since then, but I guess we'll have to see.
Posted on Facebook on August 17, 2009; about two months after I graduated from BJ high school. Also, about a week before my 18th birthday.

1. New favorite quote: "Never love anything too much; it will eventually disappoint you." (New new favorite quote: "Que sera sera." See video)
2. I want a hound dog named Copper. (Partly true. I kind of want a French bulldog)
3. I would much rather throw something away & buy a new one than clean the old one. (I'm ashamed to admit that this is still very much my mindset)
4. I get embarrassed FOR other people very easily. (True, but I get embarrassed for myself more often)
5. If my life was a sitcom, I think I would be the stupid friend or the overly sarcastic friend. (Or the fat friend. I've gained like 50 pounds since high school.)
6. Favorite sandwich: chicken salad. (Always)
7. It amazes me that it seems like everybody is connected. Like it's a small world without the annoying melody. (Still amazes me. Probably now more so because everybody I used to hang with is away at different colleges & we're meeting people that know other people through other people all the time.)
8. I hate it when douchebags leave their brights on. (Who doesn't?)
9. I love the way my papaw talks. (Who doesn't?)
10. It bothers me when I make a list and every first word is the same. Is that OCD or just good writing skills? (Truth)
11. After working at the movie theatre, I learned that the public does not know how to read. (Truth)
12. I'm a sucker. (I really can't remember what this is referring to, but I'm sure it's still true)
13. The memories are nice, but I do not miss high school at all. (Ah I do miss BJ)
14. I love knowing what new movies are coming out. (That was a perk of the job. I guess I was still working at the theater when I wrote this)
15. My favorite song TODAY: He Could Be The One - Hannah Montana (It's catchy & probably won't be favorite for long.) (Uh nope)
16. I cuss inside my head way more than I do outloud. (I cuss out loud now)
17. Books are wonderful, but unfortunately make me hopeless. (I am so insightful)
18. I love listening to my uncles & Mama talk about their childhood. (They don't do this much anymore)
19. It seems that I have a tendency to fall for the wrong guys. (I fall for plenty of different kinds of guys, it's just I haven't dated the right guy)
20. My favorite day of the week is the day after Mama goes to the grocery store. (Haha fatty)
21. Sappy movies make me cry. (God I cry over everything)
22. I basically rely on Braden's advice because he is oh so wise beyond his years. (False)
23. I miss all of the people I knew in Centre. (I miss my highschool friends more)
24. I don't know how to act around dogs, just like Roshni doesn't know how to act around my kitty cats. (Rosh has gotten much better)
25. Whenever I think about how I can't sleep, the song No Sleep Til Brooklyn plays in my head. Everytime. (False)

Still relevent, still hilarious
"Everyone with a tattoo has their bullshit reasons behind it; You always want to live by a religious philosophy you briefly learned about in your eastern cultures class, you want to honor that guy you spent a fateful spring break with, you want everyone to know you’re hard to touch, hence the barbed wire on your bicep.
While none of us want to admit it, most of the mental preparation done before getting a tattoo is figuring out what you’re going to say when people ask you what your ink symbolizes. You want to be deep. You want to be profound. You spend months crafting the beautiful soliloquy that will give insight to your masterful epidermal tapestry.
But most of us are dumb and only profound in the way that a Zach Braff movie is profound. Every tattoo explanation I’ve ever heard (including my own) comes off as a cover story for the real reason we get tattoos: they are awesome. You can philosophize all you want, but deep down we know that the reason we brave ridicule from our friends, lectures from our parents, and potential inker’s remorse is so we can look cool in a tank top.
But few people will admit this is the case. Most stand proudly by their tattoos and their vague, cryptic, undertones.
The trickiest part of this whole equation is that we’re all getting older, and that one day we’re going to have grandkids asking about the muddy purple spots on our forearms and lower backs.
Just take a second and imagine your own grandmother, just finishing setting the table for a delicious Thanksgiving feast, saying that she got Death tattooed on her shoulder blade because she always wants to remember that the Reaper’s on her back, man. Now imagine your grandfather, sporting Bermuda shorts and an oxygen tank, saying he got this piece done on his chest because Fall Out Boy is “fucking awesome.”
Hilarious right? Gaze into your future, American youth."

Firstly
My Grandmother passive aggressively let me know that she didn't like for me to wake up late. She stomped back to my room, swung open the door & flipped on the light. I abruptly opened my eyes an my Grandmother said sweetly, "Oh I'm sorry," then she looks at the clock and realizes what time it is and not so sweetly says, "Wake up." I deserved it. But now I think I'll have to suffer through a discussion about it.
Second, and most importantly, I honestly have no motivation to wake up in the morning. Not saying that I'm mega depressed and I don't want to wake up ever, I'm saying that about noon is a much better time to wake up.
Third, and also most importantly, why can't English teachers just care less? I don't want thoughtful emails from you telling me I still need to turn shit in! I thought I was in college! They began scaring us in middle school about college, & I'm a little disappointed to find out that they were bullshitting me & there are still teachers in college who care! It's because I always make eye contact and nod, no matter how boring the lectures. The teachers think I care!
I do care. But sometimes I don't.
Side note: "Firstly" does not even look like a word. Google says it is though. It looks like a two year old trying to say "thirsty."

Seriously
There is no reason why the printer shouldn't print. Except maybe there is a reason/like the internet here at my Grandparent's is ridiculously slow & the printer is wireless. But no I don't think that's it. The dang printer won't work for me even in the best of circumstances.
I came to my room like 2 hours ago with a glass of chocolate milk & completely forgot about it until right now

old lady swag
Memorizing Spanish things while knitting! My favorite pastime! Minus the Spanish part.
Office Guy: "Hey how's it going?"
Me: "Hey! Good! How's how are you going?"
...I wish I didn't do this every single day
God I love knitting, but also I am so bad at it. All of my things turn out crooked and janky!
Sidenote: I must clarify that my Grandmother does not openly hate gays; She does so quietly in the privacy of her own home. It's not good either way, but I think it's better than running your big dumb mouth about it.

"That's like the hardest core I've ever seen in my life" TOBY!!!!!!!!!
I just want to knit and watch youtube videos! Also, reading. That is totally it. I don't want to do school.
I say that in every blog haha
Tonight's Glee had the potential to be really awkward because I watched it with my Grandmother and she is very homophobic and thinks gay is gross. Surprisingly enough, she didn't say anything!
Got so much to do, but I ain't sweating it. I really should sweat it. I probably won't though. No motivation to sweat it.

NOPE chuck testa
I've spent the better part of my day watching Kids React & I was surprised at how many "viral" videos I hadn't actually seen. I put viral in quotations because I hate the word viral & I would never describe anything as that and it's like part of Kids React To...'s title screen. Also, I just wanted to be pretentious. I love the word pretentious!
In Other News (I think if I don't make it as a librarian, I get a bunch of plastic surgery and become a news anchor)
My great aunt wants me to knit her a couple hats for her adorable baby granddaughter. She only sent me photos of hats though... I'm good but I'm not that good. Haha. Kinda need a pattern. I feel pretty honored that she asked because I know she's really awesome at crochet so she could have just made the kid a cool crochet hat. At the same time, sucks because I'll have to make these hats a priority when I already have been slacking on all these other projects I want to do. I AM SUCH A PROCRASTINATOR. She's buying the yarn so heyyyyyyy. I'll do anything for free yarn.
BTDUBS ROSHNI, I am so excited to show you my new cast on method!!!!!!!!!!!! It is so much better than the other one!!!!!!!!!! YAY FOR WEEKEND AFTER NEXT!!!!!!
