new year's eve
…and I’m thinking of staying home by myself and spending time alone, by myself.

I'm addicted to Cranium and Taboo
hunsonisgroovy:
Ever since Christmas Eve, I’ve been playing Cranium and Taboo with my cousins. It’s so addicting. I’m still not sure if they’re better than Monopoly, but it’s awfully close.
Hahahahaahahahhahahaha my family of some 20+ cousins, aunts, uncles, babies, and unfortunate significant others of said cousins play Taboo every Christmas in Arkansas. My team won yet again. And when I...

speaking of books...
I brought 4 to (finish) read(ing) while on vacation and haven’t opened any of them. Guess it’s time to get off the Internet and get my read on! Oh goodie!
just watch the sky →
bc I am a sucker for typography and bold color combinations and words. a suckerrr I tell you.
PS. You click on the image it goes to Amazon of the artist, bc those words are a song lyric that also is on the bottom left, if you want to hear the song. Very cool concept. But I’d rather do something like this for books…
…now there, is a great idea!

The dad is the artist. He makes one a day for his kids to take their lunches in. THAT is wicked awesome.
tumblrs
Some people have really awesome Tumblrs. They show their Tweetings on it. They have a Tumblview thingy. They have a Play Music option to play their musics. They have a COOL stuff, and mine is SO lame. I need to change that. I am feeling envious right now.

Jon sucks. And man, he is wildly depressed.
THIS is a good reason to have pets. Without them, if you are depressedy, then you would be this crazy koot.

DARRR,

OMFGZ yumminess!!!

What this is…
A growing network and enterprise dedicated to the progress of the graphic design profession and its practitioners, students and enthusiasts. At times intangible, its purpose is to question, push, analyze and agitate graphic design and those involved in the profession…

I always wondered WTF is up with the Animal Planet logo. I guess everyone else is thinking the same thing, too.
graphic design
Yet another thing I need to do/learn how to do/read up on/stop being so damn lazy and just fn do it already. Maybe in the hiatus between graduation and getting my first real job I will finally commit to teaching myself some stuff. (A couple of my friends have been out a semester—engineers—who have not yet gotten jobs so that is looking good for me in having time to do my own...
mad men
I need to watch this show. I started to, but committing to a TV show is so difficult for me. The only way I keep up with Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill (yes, barf) is bc of CWTV.com.
Thank goodness for the Internet and TV shows on DVD.
Anyways, one of the many things I NEED to do.
following
I don’t know why it took me so long to do this but I’m going to start following more people. So if you come to check me out to see who started following you it is probably because:
I like your shit.
My friend Katy reblogs your shit a lot and I like it.
I’m being random.
Happy Tumbling.
PS. I need to learn how to do that tumview thing and that play music thing and linking...

pdf
I am a genius. I just installed something on my computer so that I can save Word docs as PDFs. I can’t believe I figured that out allllll by myself.
(I did it so I could send my resume out without having issues with font discrepancies. Adeline has some really nice friends with connections that told me they’d help me find some leads as far as internships for the Spring are concerned....

hoitey toitey, definition
as defined by Urban Dictionary
hoitey toitey
Defines an average person, purchasing or owning something that is above them.
Instead of buying “Wonder Bread” in the bag, someone that was hoitey toitey would get a French Loaf.
Fun Fact: I started using this word after watching Newsies. Mayne, I love that movie.
parking nightmare(s)
Case 1: Lina, Kenneth, and Shane
After passing up a spot on 6th and Colorado only to find out there was no where to park closer to 4th and Colorado we circled back to said open spot. With my blinker and reverse lights on I proceeded to back up into the space when a car goes in, head first. I stop my car and put my flshers on and roll down my window to tell the stupid girl and her beau to get out...
academic update #4/4
Integrated Communications Management: B
And I should be damn proud of that as that was a rough course. Only 4 out of the 40+ students across two classes got As—my prof is apparently stingy with As so I am pretty proud of my B!
So, go Me!

technology wow
The generation gap that is seemingly so small and the technology gap is SO freakin redic. The difference between someone I met today (31) and myself (23) is apparently huge, so he tells me and I know the difference between my youngest sister and I and her peers (17) is even bigger.
It amazes me, technology and the Internet, and people. Like whoa.
Social media is a double like whoa. Like wowza.
academic update #3/4
Advertising & Society: B
Ba-da bing, ba-da boom. I am satisfied with this grade. Go me. Three tests and a research paper (I wrote over the summer for my composition class—that saved my life, I only had to add like 3 paragraphs to it, and no, it was NOT cheating as it was MY own paper thank you very much).
I am SO happeh that this semester is over.

impeccable timing
My credit limit just went up from $200 to $700 which is great because Christmas is just around the corner and I’ve gotta get my ticket for the cruise. And I’ve been working a lot this week so my check should be nice and next week will be killer and then it’s celebration time in Houston, then back in Austin, then Arkansas then back to work for two weeks and then a cruise! Busy...
