Will someone please tell me why it is 29 degrees and SNOWING in North Texas and like 50 degrees in London? All I wanted was a nice walk to the WCC so I could get my Roo Croissant Sandwich (with bacon), and I walk out, and it's snowing. And freezing. And I had to go back and change my shoes and put on a hat and then I had to hurry because breakfast ends at 9:45. And that is JUST WRONG.
That's it. Weather, you're on notice!!



PS-
Does anyone want me to post various stories and/or pictures from London? Because if no one's interested, I won't have to waste my time and can be lazy.

ok, i've made it to london, but at the moment i'm just exhausted.
we always joke because houston streets are insane and have like five names each and you can't turn left in downtown. houston has nothing on london. most retardedly put together streets ever. we walked all over notting hill trying to get back to bayswater, which should be easy, but in the end we just got on the tube and went one station over. but whatever, i just saw cute english children in their little private school uniforms just like in movies so it's still happy.
it's about 4:30 pm here, 10:30 am in houston, and i haven't really slept since monday night in dallas. it was a very long plane ride and i am happy to be walking again.
i am so tired and their keyboards are strange here and i have a hard time finding the shift key, so i gave up on it altogether.
oh, and, fun fact: they have no tj maxx in the uk. but, they do have tk maxx. we were wondering, do they have a russ?

Hey...so...who's home?
Beth, Rachel, Steph...you guys should call me.

I really feel like watching The Lion King.

DONALD RUMSFELD HAS RESIGNED.

We shall overcome!

Whoo, I voted today! Yes, civic duty!

As of now, Democrats only need 3 seats to control the Senate and 8 to control the House!

Oh, and Perry won the governorship in Texas. DAMMIT. Oh well. We tried, Kinky!!


ETA: WE WON THE HOUSE!! IT IS A NEW BEAUTIFUL DAY FOR AMERICA.

I think I need a fish biscuit.

Dude Heroes kicks LOST's butt. Almost.

OK, I totally thought that Sylar was a black guy and the same person as D.L. I was totally wrong. Turns out Sylar is played by Sean Bean. That pretty much is AWESOME.
And OMG I hate Eden. Mohinder is so cute. No one should be mean to Mohinder. Especially not stupid people named "Eden."

So, last night after I updated my life go a bit more interesting.

(Interesting is a relative term, though, so don't expect much.)

During my Janterm trip to London, we're going to have five days or so where we can do whatever want, literally, so a group of us have made plans to visit Paris. I've recently decided that in Paris, in order to have a complete experience I'm probably going to have to drink an expensive cup of coffee and smoke a cigarette. Anyway, here's where the actual story starts. I told this idea to my friend Zach, and he suggested that I should learn to roll my own. So I did.

( It was exciting )

Then we counted down to Jake's 20th birthday and then I went home.

Today nothing much happened except that I kept falling asleep in IR and studied for my test tomorrow.

Other than that, we taught Carolina, the Spanish language resident, euphemisms for homosexuals and intercourse. Among the terms covered were fruitcake, fruity, fag, horizontal tango, mattress mambo, and "hippety dippety." I hadn't heard of it, either. I love the Jordan girls.

OH, and also, they just did a "fire drill" (aka ushering out everyone in the residence hall to do a drug/illegal stuff check). Made me miss The Office.

Okay. Let's do this.

ANYWAY. School's fine, life's fine, I'm not getting as much sleep as I'd like, but that's nothing new. Test Friday, paper due Tuesday, but nothing big in my world. So there's that.

I think I got a 100 on a quiz today.

That was fun.

Today in my IR class:

Professor: "...after all, what even is power? I mean, can you touch power?"
muttered by someone behind me: "As if Chuck Norris would let you touch him."

I'm almost done with the first week of classes! Just one more day and two more classes. They're all pretty good so far, minus the weird emo kid in my IR class. By the end of term, I'm sure he will have done enough stupid stuff for me to fill several entries with. Prepare to be amused.

My room is finally in order, I've got a pretty good routine in place, and plans to hang out with some hot ladies tonight. Mostly I've just been going to class, reading, and staring at my new hair.

OH and obligatory Project Runway talk starts... ( now. )

Today I bought my first miniskirt in about two years. And with leggings in style, I'll probably actually wear it. I love Target. Also today, I got my first early birthday present! It's a camera. I love it. Expect pictures of things you don't care about.

On another note...( Cut for Project Runway fans who have fallen behind...STEPHANIE. And CARLA. )

Oooh, and if anyone's seeing Tallageda Nights soon, CALL me.

Went to see the guard tonight with Steph and Beth, and then met up with Bryce there! It was good times. I love those kids.

Lots to be excited for:
July 21 - last day of work
July 22 - hottubbing at Mary's? Who knows.
July 23 - Florida and Greg!
First week of Augustish - Megan in town
Sometime between August 2 and August 6 - lunch with Joe
August 9 - my birthday!
August 11 - Harry and the Potters concert. Whoo!
Work ends Friday. Yes.
