oscar night 2009

thins i dont like:

wide screen TVs
-i dont get it, they just make everyone look fat. why would you create something that deliberately makes people fat? i dont like them

that is all

pps: im watching the oscars. hugh jackman is cool. i never knew he was wolverine. im pretty bad at connecting things like that. example never knew that summer from school of rock and iCarly were the same person. its like 'i look like both of them' but haha! theyre the same person

pps. i dont know where i got the wide screen tv thing from. im at my moms and its like...new? i dont know how to explain tvs. its big but doesnt make people fat. blu ray is cool

pps. oh just googled it looking for a picture but apparently these tvs have just been set up wrong

daily thoughts - yes this is what i think about

i hate tshirts but this was funny so i share:

wow that sounded really ESL (me, not the shirt)

anyways valerie owns a lot of socks. really random socks. like Sexy Devil socks. and 'i went to princeton and brought you back socks' socks. (they dont literally say that but thats what it means) and toe socks. i do not like toe socks. they are weird and scary

the kind of people who wear toe socks

actually, maybe not. i think its the type of people who knit themselves things and actually wear them...hmm i wonder

Jake!

i thought this ad was pretty funny considering my penguin suit has the exact same effect. i happen to be wearing this penguin suit right now

things the penguin suit offers that the snuggie doesnt:

1. the suit has a hood that keeps your head warm. it can double as a make-shift pillow if you really try.

2. The flippers. which also have an opening for free hands. its like, what if i dont want to read a book and just want to have snuggly hands? well, i just put my hands in and velcro up the hand openings. its that simple

3. Webbed feet shoe covers. i can wear shoes AND have my feet enveloped by penguiny goodness

4. velvet-esq material. so much beter than the petty fleece of the snuggie, or whatever shizz its called. fleece gets all staticy, whereas the penguins velvet doesnt.

5. The bow tie. Now, i just realised penguins dont actually wear bow ties. why is it that EVERY penguin costume has a red bow tie? oh well. with the penguin, i can looks fly while staying warm. have a last minute formal even and nothing to wear? no problem. dressing up for formal events is a breeze with your penguin costume, thanks to the attatched, and very tasteful bowtie. just try doing that with your snuggie

6. The penguin is way cooler. ask anybody. time magazine says penguin is the new black. its true. It is the epitome of cool.

7. Doubles as a Halloween costume. (this implies that no, it is not a halloween costume, but can be used for such purposes) Some lame blanket with arms could never do such thing.

Mine is slightly different. but you get the idea. 

i would say it is a mix between the two. steph had pictures if you really want to see. 

gym

ugh eww i have to go to gym tomorrow

i hate gym, its my least favourite class ever!

and we can never get out of it, not even in grade 12

but whatevs, i havnt gone all week. i guess i will go tomorrow because its sport psychology, meaning the biggest joke class ever.

surprisingly, i am not fat. i dont really know why. 

yes i do. its cause i dont drink soda and limit refined sugars (read: oftener i do nay eat candy)

secret: sometimes i try and go to bed early (9:00/21:00) but never can because i am woken up by my telephone or parents. usually the telephone.

and in the mornings when i try to sleep in (9/10/9:00/10:00) i cant sleep because i am woken up by the home phone. i cant mute it completely so im starting to take out the batteries at night

if gym class was like this, i would go:

no american apparel allowed

google-y eyes

one of the funniest things i have seen in a while




so out of curiosity/fairness...

its fun to know that "why are half asians so hot" is right up there in the google system with "why are half my christmas lights out"

thought of the day//yes only one

I think part of originality is about learning to move with the times. if there is a certain thing you do or wear and everyone else starts doing it, you must realize that people will see you as just one of the herd. it doesn’t help if you go and telling people you did it long before the trend because it simply comes off as pretentious

my generation

i think children are trying to grow up too fast. age-compression, i tihnk its called, is something thats been bugging me 4EVA. if you have no idea what im talking about think LGs. little girls for those who dont know. i would explain it but ill just find a picture

okay clearly google has no idea what im talking about. i type in LG and they show me phones. GET YOUR PRIORITIES STRAIGHT
if you want to read mkore about it go here: http://www.cbc.ca/consumers/market/files/money/sexy/marketing.html

i read it maybe one or two years ago and its quite fascinating. theres a video too somewhere.
but yeah its all the LGs wearing their tna and shizz. also why chanel has lost its prestige. i wouldnt be caught dead wearing a logo necklace/bag whose name has been disgraced by b-list celebrities and LGs wearing knockoff CC necklaces (fake, night market, i give you good price, 15 dolla)
and all the LGs going to dunbar dances with their american eagle shirts and abercrombie skirts. those brands are trash trash trash. hollister too, but tis implied

anyways, my 8 year olf brother got an iPhone. isnt that the stupidest thing youve ever heard. before he wanted the BB Bold but eventually got this one. i was like "oh yes you really need one for all your business contacts" and "how many people do you talk to no the phone? mom...dad..."
i suppose whilst were on this topic we could talk about BBs too. (blackberry, whateva) theres 6,7 people in my grade who have one. i just dont believe that 15 year olds need phones that 40 year old businessmen do.

so really whats the line we draw separating this:

Mariah tries on her first outfit. “I like it’s how it’s tight, and I like how it shows my belly button. It makes me look cooler. Much cooler, really."

and kids trying to grow up in other ways? one thing just leads to another. i am saddened by my generation

conclusion: i sure as hell dont want sexy devil 6 year olds trick or treating at my house
