Watch your face

Mark it on your calendars, February 26: the day winter has officially gotten to me. How do I know?

1. I want to karate-chop everyone I see in the face. Everyone. Friends, co-workers, old ladies, babies, everyone. Chew too loudly? Have an annoying laugh? I'll kill you.

2. My head hurts, my back hurts, my stomach hurts, and I want to fall asleep on every horizontal object I come across.

3. I can't even think of a third item for this list.

I'm going to snuggle with the bf and pet some kitties. I'm sure I will feel better soon. Until then, watch your face and chew with your mouth closed.

Hello Homeland,

I haven't been writing on here at all and that makes me sad. Now that Hannah and I aren't roomates anymore it's like a piece of me has gone missing and things are just not the same anymore.

Things that are not the same/I can't do without Hannah:

1. Look incredibly normal in comparison

2. Watch the Duggars spit another one out of that bottomless pitt of a hoohaw.

3. Eat copious amounts of Nutella out of a jars.

4. Watch informercials about sketchy producs.

5. Imagine if... moments (i.e. imagine if falcons were fire alarms)

6. Crash international parties where we are the only one who are not foriegn

I do know this, I'm going to write the shit out of this blog starting now. I don't know what that entails exactly but I'm going to find out come hell or highwater, or both.

So hello America, I'm back.

Love Love

dec·ile

n. Statistics

1. Any one of the numbers or values in a series dividing the distribution of the individuals in the series into ten groups of equal frequency.

2. Any one of the ten groups.

Well he's right, I'm not one of those.

Skating in the USA!

As an American girl living in an international dorm, I feel it is my honor and duty to expose my foreign friends to all the wonders that my great country has to offer. So last night some of the ladies of 2 East had an adventure. It began, as all great American adventures do, at Perkins where we ate fried meats, pie, and huge-ass sandwiches as is the custom of my people.

From there we ventured to a roller-rink. Jamie drove on the wrong side of the road for awhile. I couldn't believe that Kim (Vietnam) and Tidie (Indonesia) had never strapped wheels to their feet and rolled around in circles before! Tidie did alright. Kim's skating embodied

perfectly what I have always imagined it would look like if I put skates on my cat; there was lots of flailing and screaming. It was adorable.

She took to skates like a duck to something ducks are not good at

But Kim didn't let a few bruises dampen her enthusiasm. So cute!

Hippocampus vrs. Hippopatamus

I'm really bored and unable to think about anything that makes the slightest bit of sense. So I'd open up and let you guys know how deep I really am.

Here is a list of all the important thoughts rushing through my brain in the order in which I am thinking them:

1. I wish I had a rival. I like to pretend that one of the girls on third is my rival because she has dark hair and wears things with lots of clasps and Velcro which I for some reason elicits my animosity. No one needs that many fasteners unless they have something to hide. All my clothes are held up by sheer willpower.

2. I'd like to tape a big piece of paper over my doorway every night so that in the morning I can burst through it victoriously.

3. I should carry lots of little Jenga pieces in my backpack so that I can dump them on a table and play at anytime in any place.

4. The difference between a hippocampus and a hippopotamus is that one is a big animal and one is Vietnamese.

5. Who's sign language book is that? Can deaf people read? Yes they can. Sorry deaf people.

I hope you enjoyed my complex inner thoughts (I have none) and my picture of a baby giraffe (I WANT ONE).

I'm Not Dead

Nor did I fall asleep for 3 months and wake up with a beard covered in ice (although this is what it would look like if I did.)

If any of you were waiting anxiously to hear the latest updates about my ever exciting and drama-filled life, don't worry, you haven't missed anything. Basically it's been cold and I spent most of the past few months wandering around my home in a pink Snuggie, talking to my cat, and eating Indian take-out. Still, I guess I owe you, so I'll fill you in on the most important details of my winter thus far:

1. I have a new roommate! Her name is Jamie and at 9:15 every night we eat chips, and salsa, and cookies. We like to watch shows about prison and are planning to tour one some day, just for fun. She can do the splits and she doesn't like peanut butter. This is what we look like together in a fall-type setting.

2. I got my picture taken in one of those booths at the mall.

3. I got a really bad sinus infection and I had to go to the doctor and get some shots but it was ok because they gave me a sucker.

That is pretty much it. It is one of my New Years resolutions to keep up with this so I will be better this year.

xoxo Hannah
