Also....

Can someone make my life (or at least alleviate my boredom and give me something to contemplate between adventure time clips and tetris games) and write on my formspring? I freaking love that thing...why? Probably because, as stated in the very first blog post (and possibly the info in the sidebar) I love talking about myself. That's why I have a blog. And I'm willing to bet that's one of the reasons you read it. Or else mayhaps you're being held captive by shadow people in Lumpy Space (or some equally warped dimension) and being forced to read this as they torture some key secret (maybe the secret of who the cleaning ladies are blackmailing to keep their jobs?) out of you. In which case, leave me a comment and maybe I can help.

Who am I kidding? If you're kidnapped in Lumpy Space the best I can hope to do is put a large 'ON VACATION' banner across my blog and hope that Big Daddy and Hit Girl contact me for details. In which case they could probably help.

In other words, write on my formspring.

Spotted In the Art Building

I love the art building for several reasons....mostly because something new and eccentric is always popping up somewhere, generally the third floor. So here's a tribute to some of the crazy shit I've seen around since joining the art department...

Love this chair.

One of these might be mine... :)


Spackle-ified Monster Hands (ignore my weird face...)


Swine flu? Michael Jackson? No, just another day in design class.


Forget the elephant in the room, we have a cow in the elevator.


Fridge doodle.


Hate these stairs, but Emily's awesome.


Even the desks look like art.

EDIT: More now!!
Yeah, that's right, be excited....



Bee careful
[this is a note to the staff asking them to be careful when reinstalling the cow, because there is a bees nest in the base but not to kill it becase bee populations are suffering]


I feel like no one actually uses this for food...

The sign on the third floor women's bathroom where traditionally the 'WOMANS' sign would be...
don't ask me, I have nooo idea.

The sign on the men's room door. Also, no idea.
If you have a theroy about these, I'd love to hear it...

Guess whose agenda was acomplished this weekend...


*This is a dramatization
**This is not.

Another Day, Another Blog Post to Avoid Speech....

Ugh, COMM 100 is killing me, I kid you not. It's just flat out DUMB (but don't worry mom, I'm prepared for tomorrow!).

In other news. Things you should watch.

KICK-ASS:
What is it? It's like Kill Bill + Spiderman + Watchmen. Basically it's about a kid with no superpowers at all who goes out to 'fight injustice' and subsequently stumbles upon more legit superheroes and gets mixed up in all sorts of shit. Not for those who can't watch violence. There's some sick action sequences that are reminicent of the Kill Bill series (slow-mo headshots, slicing of heads, etc.) that are a bit intense but still so good. Blah, blah, blah. Now to my actual point. Watch it soley because Hit Girl steals the freaking movie. Most intense female superhero E-V-E-R. And she's like, nine. Possibly my favorite superhero ever.

Basically, she kicks ass. My mediocre fanart does not do her justice.

Things I Would Rather Be Doing Instead of This Speech

  1. Questing with Team Quest
  2. Sleeping
  3. Watching something on Hulu
  4. Sleeping
  5. Rocking out at a Lady Gaga/Killers/Bright Eyes concert
  6. Be laying on a sunny beach somewhere
  7. Be at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter Park
  8. Playing Super Smash (more) with Shaun
  9. Training my Pokemon to defeat the next Gym Leader
  10. Being sung to
  11. Singing
  12. Casting the Ring of Power into Mt. Doom
  13. Aimlessly drawing dresses/superheroes/Lady Gaga Costumes
  14. Playing Quiddich on the quad
  15. Driving through scenic farmland
None of these things are currently happening, much to my chargrin. And as much as I wish they were, writing about how much I want them to be happening is not making my speech outline go any faster. So little monsters (teehee) I will leave you with some interesting things I've found lately as well as tell you to hold on to your berets (green or other colors) and prepare for a monster blog entry on all sorts of awesome artists and their super-cool work. T-ta!

CALLING ALL GLEEKS!!!!! And non-Gleeks. Really anyone who can click a mouse....

As you may or may not know, the show 'Glee' (which I love very much and highly recomend you watch) is holding an open casting call via video audition. An incredibly talented friend of mine is auditioning and as an avid blog reader (who owes me big time for this major promotion *sarcasm*) has asked me to appeal to you lovely blog-readers to help him out. All you need to do is


In case you missed it, here it is again:


Once there, watch his adorable self sing and click the button that says

***GIVE A GOLD STAR***
You can continue to click this button as many times as your computer will allow. Blistering may occur on clicker finger, but hey, that's why you've got nine more! Please help Thomas out, he's a super-cool kid and obviously if you're reading this you value my opinion, so take it from me; he deserves as many gold stars as you care to give.

Also, if he gets on 'Glee' I will totally be able to meet Shoe. And Puck. And Finn. And Kirt.

KRYSTI-MON! I Choose You!

I'm showin this off because Thomas is amazing and has mad photoshop skillz.

Also, cause it's awesome and makes me happy!!! Me as a Pokemon trainer (yeah, I know, Thomas flatters me with his phenom skills but the face looks like me dammit!)


Am I was more excited about this than I should be at my age? You decide. Does it make me wish I'd grabbed my Gameboy Color and Pokemon Blue before I went back to school? Heck yes. Am I the most stylish and questly trainer you ever did see? Well, before you answer you should probably check out his pic of himself, idk if I can beat the glasses and classic Ash pose.

And what mediocrity have I been working on? Well, I'll show it too you very small because it kind of sucks, but here's my unfortunate attempt at a realistic self portrait of myself. Sadly sitting on my desk chair. Bane of my existance.



Cowering behind a masquerade mask. Pitiful. Bane of my existance.


Live long and prosper y'all.

Possibly the Greatest Video Ever

And I mean it this time.



Tell me that wasn't one of the coolest concepts ever. I dare you.

Midnight Munchie Induced Musings...

I learned:
  • People are extremely friendly by around the vending mechines at midnight.
  • Watching Family Guy always gives me the midnight munchies.
  • The Diehmers are more cunning than you would think.
  • All the fresh fruit on campus goes to catering to feed people who don't go to the school.
  • Feeding the wildlife near the pond is fun.
  • Apperently pillow-fort building is a racially limited thing.
  • Awkward situations are better when experienced with someone else.
  • Drawing a model's face is awkward, esspecially when they keep making eye contact.
  • Technical drawings are hard.
  • I need to stop volunteering for things.
  • Drunk people are smarter than one gives them credit for.
  • MU bought an actually theatre.
  • It will never, ever rain when you actually want/need it to.
  • Sometimes dressing up for a situation helps
  • First floor residents are a lot nicer than I always thought.
  • My RA hates us for some reason.
  • Once you make an effort to start recycling stuff, it's hard to go back.
  • Apperently, the fact that I know who Earth, Wind, and Fire are is more notable than my art project about earth, wind, and fire.
  • My little brother may actually miss me a little.
  • People need to use libraries more often.
  • GLEE TOMORROW! (I didn't learn that, but it's a reminder)
  • I'm not a huge fan of group work. Sometimes.
  • Technology is a pain in my butt.
  • How to draw a pretty dang good nose.
So, hope you enjoyed an old school-type posting. Don't forget to leave some love in the comment box (AKA it makes me feel loved when I recieve it) and hang tight until next time!
