top 5 things i hate about facebook

1. people posting about their sexcapades in their updates that are blasted to everyone. really? i did not need to know that you had sex during your lunch break today. especially if you are related to me, which makes it double-gross.

2. friend-collectors. friend-collectors have no intention of interacting with you at all, they just want to increase their friend-count.

3. old-old-acquaintances. along the same lines as friend-collectors, but slightly different (although these people can fall into the same category). people you SORT of knew in junior high or elementary school. you barely recognize their face, and they want to befriend you again. other people that fall into this category are old acquaintances from high school who you really did not care for in h.s. but want to befriend you again. really? no thx.

4. people who take quizzes every day and post about mafia wars EVERY DAY. i do not need to know which my little pony you are or which weapon you need in mafia wars.

5. people who feel the need to make their cleavage their avatar on facebook. kthx, we got it. you have boobs.

top 5 cures for getting over someone / a break up

5. Dance and sing along to J-Timb's "What goes around comes around" with friends. Couple this with secretly crying along to ABC's The Bachelorette.

4. Accidentally pour beer all over yourself, inhale it, snort it, all while celebrating your independence on the 4th of july at a keg softball match

3. Lose all of your money while playing blackjack up and down the strip in Vegas. Feel utterly depressed. THEN win your money back on your last night while playing the slots. The adrenaline rush alone is worth it.

2. Get fucking wasted with a co-worker at the Venetian while commiserating. Discover that they are going through a nasty divorce and realize that your problems are minuscule.

1. Snort lines of coke off of some hookers' asses in your posh hotel room. Keep the Roman shades up for full effect.

Deep Thoughts from a First Grader

My parents are moving, which means they are digging through all of my childhood crap that's been stored in the attic for years and are giving it to me to sort through. To my surprise, my mom kept all of my old art, report cards, journals, cabbage patch kids, books, awards, etc. Here are some excerpts from some old journals from 1st and 2nd grade. Perhaps I'll scan some old art stuff later (apparently I was really into drawing unicorns and the California raisins).

This year I plan to help my mom and dad and not my brother and be good at school. When I grow up going to be a artist and a nurse. I always have fun when I play with my frinds and ride my bike and color. On Halloween night I have to be carrful for strangers. I like November because we get to visit or famly. I wudent like to be a lizird because they look ugly. I helped keep my heart strong to excercice and eat food and don't take drugs. The world would be a better place if there wasint such thing as fire and strangers and drugs. The best movie I ever seen was Grimlins and Karatie kid part 1 and two and pewies big a vencher. If I had fifdie dollers I would bye a pet and a cabbig pach kid swing and stroller.

yesterday at art we made snowmans. if today wasin't school I would be playing at Tasha's. I like the man who plays the computer. My class mates like the way I run. I like to learn about Dinasaurs. The thing I like about Feb. is Valentines Day and going to the snow. It makes me sad when I get teased. I think its mean to get into somones lunch cause its not nice to do it. It makes me nurvice when I think about school. Today we might get a popcorn party and a vidieo. One time I got hurt when I fell down onto the glass and rocks and dirt. The nicest thing I did to someone was I played with them. I think the most importent class rule is to be a good student. I'm glad that we get 4 days off of school. Mrs. Moeller always gets mad when we do something bad if I was a teacher for a day I would be doing art. I would ask Abraham Lincoln is being a president fun. I wish school was over so I can go to my cousins house. I think the hardest job in the world is walking to school. If I had a day to do anything I wanted I would ride my bike and go to Toys' are us and I would get a tape called Friday the 13th. If I was taller I would reach the top shelf and touch the seeling and I would be the tallest one in my class. On the way to school today I saw a tracter. I wish school was over cause I could go spend the night at my friends house and we would have fun. I always have fun when I go over to my friends house to play and watch a movie and go to my grandma's and go to Disneyland and play soccer. This is what I think about steelling It is not nice to do It and the person who owns it will feel sad. Dogs probily get tired of walking and sleeping. My best friend does not like it when I kick the ball out of her hands. If I had a magic car I would want It to take me to the other side of the world. If the moon could talk I wonder if it could tell me how it is up there and how cold is it and is it fun up there. If I was a radio anounser I would tell the people that there was a tornado in canses and it would rain in Loomis and in Sacramento and Rosville. It is hard for me to be quiet cause everyone is talking to me. When rainbows disappear I think they go in the clouds. The first thing I'm doing when I grow up is go to the Dating Game. Rad.

Oh, and here's an excerpt from a teacher's aide who was apparently stocking me on the playground and observing me (wtf?):

Describe her relationshiop with the other children:
She was friendly. Intermingled with who ever was around her at the time. Liked Talking "silly" & laughing with others. Did a lot of imitating - if Casey drew funny & fast - she drew the same way, then they giggled! She only got upset with Robbie - they seem to "egg" each other on. [Note: Robbie was my preschool boyfriend]

Outdoor Play:
9:00 She enjoyed the jungle gym. Talked "silly" with the 2 other girls on it. Liked being on the top [that's what she said]. Was not afraid of the height. Swung by her knees. She talked about "going to the hospital." Was the leader of the girls with her. "Let's go to the play house now." Played happily with 5 other girls on the playhouse. Shared with Allison when she asked for more "dirt" Used the expression "I don't care - We don't care" a lot.
