Back to School: Episode VI
........................................................................................- Alright, here comes my I'm-back-to-school-but-I'm-not-ready-at-all post. This morning, after three months of idleness, I had a hard time convincing myself that I should actually get up, get dressed, and go to school. Fortunately I happen to be very convincing when arguing with myself. I spent an hour dressing up just to compensate for the rest of the semester during which I will wear the first pair of jeans and the first shirt I stumble across. - I could have watched MTV Video Music Awards last night but I forgot. Plus, I've realized the award shows are too time consuming anyways. I didn't even watch the last Oscars. Anyways, I'm glad that Boulevard of Broken Dreams and not Drop It Like It's Hot won the Best Video of the Year. To be honest I hate Snoop Dogg no matter how much he tries. I would pay not to see or hear from him on my TV ever again. And yay for the Killers. I love Mr. Brightside's music video. Wait a minute! Does this mean I have a thing for guys with eye make-up?! - Why is it that you run into people at random places when you don't wish to see them but when you miss them, they won't even show up at the places they're expected? How can everything be so carefully planned? - Three loud people just sat in front of me. I can write no more. Damn you loud people! Well, that's just an excuse, I'm hungry and need to eat my lunch. I think my body clock is still on Eastern Time. I usually don't eat this early. Anyhow, you guys have a great week. at 12:29 PM by negar Saturday, August 27, 2005
Here I come
........................................................................................We left Cleveland yesterday at noon and landed at College Station just an hour ago. It was a long trip with even a longer story. But nonetheless I'm home and incredibly happy to be here. The whole trip was fun and very very interesting. I gained a lot of experience AND pounds. I blame the pounds on all the milk and cereal, cookies, potato chips, and ice cream my cousins tempted me to eat. They're the cutest little creatures. You like to accompany them in their every meal of the day. It's ok though, starting on Monday I will be running around campus 5 days a week and that usually helps with the extra pounds...I just stepped on the scale and realized I've gained only 2 pounds. It's funny I feel a lot fatter than that! Well, now I can look back at my trip with almost no guilt! By the way, my wallet was found for real. I had a Renaissance Hotel room key in my wallet from the time I was staying in Houston back in May. The person who found the wallet thought I was a guest at Cleveland Renaissance Hotel so he or she took it there and the hotel which is in the mall where my wallet was stolen contacted my school and that's how I learned that it was found. I picked it up on Thursday. Everything is there except the cash which I don't care about. I'm too disgusted to touch my wallet though. It's been touched by way too many strangers and pickpockets now. So you know what to buy me as a welcome back gift! I think a blog post has to be either long OR pointless and I regret having written one that is long AND pointless. I can't write posts that are not pointless but I can work on the length and I will. at 10:26 AM by negar Tuesday, August 23, 2005
Will be back by Saturday
........................................................................................(if neither of the three planes I will ride till then crashes) In the past three days I've been to 7 or 8 states. You must be crazy to think that I've got time to blog. Go find something else to do for God's sake! I promise to write and answer your commetns once I go home where I'm allowed to put my feet up on the computer desk. Apparently that's the only position in which I'm able to write. Must be something with the blood going from my feet to the brain or something. P.S. My wallet might have been found. I don't know yet but if it is, I'll pick it up when I go back to Cleveland on Wednesday. So there's still a chance for me to get that free ice cream. at 1:26 AM by negar Thursday, August 18, 2005
Quick Post From the Cuyahoga County Public Library
........................................................................................- We still don't have internet access at my aunt's house. The people at Yahoo (SBC) DSL are being very lazy. - On my first trip to the Tower City at down town Cleveland, my purse was stollen. The purse was recovered, my wallet wasn't. Lost items: driver's liscense, credit card, debit card, school ID, $60 in cash, a few pictures, my Marble Slab Creamery card that needed only one more stamp for a free ice cream, and even my Red Cross blood donor card. A police report was obtained. My birth certificate and proof of insurance was express-mailed to me. Hopefully they let me on the plane. - I'm going to Washington DC/ Virginia on Saturday morning. I'll stay for a day or two and then catch a train to NYC. I'll fly back to Cleveland from Baltimore on Wednesday and fly to Texas on Friday. - I haven't been able to read any of you all's blogs. I hardly check my email every two or three days. I guess I have a lot of catching up to do. Don't have too much fun without me. at 12:07 PM by negar Saturday, August 13, 2005
Cousins
........................................................................................So I'm in Cleveland. I haven't seen much of it yet though. We just drove around downtown the night we arrived here. I don't have access to an internet-connected comptuer. My hosts just moved in so their DSL serive is not working yet and the computer of the computer room in their complex is broken or something. I'm writing this from a computer at the library. My cousin is clinging to my right arm as I write this and my other cousin is making up stories and sharing them with everyone as loud as she can. I like public display of affection but having myself hugged at the waist by the 6-year-old while the 3 year-old has glued herself to my leg can get a bit too much to handle. Well not really, they're very sweet except when they wake up at 6 AM and check on you at 5-minute intervals till you finally get up at 11. Seriously, I had forgotten how warm and nice it feels to be with people who like to know "why is your hair wet when you come out of the shower!" I gotta go now. The 6-year-old is giving me a "pleaaaaaaaaase" look :) Take care everyone. at 2:20 PM by negar Thursday, August 11, 2005
Cleveland better rock
........................................................................................or I'm suing Drew Carey. I'm leaving for Cleveland in 2 hours. I don't know when I will have access to internet AND the time to blog, but I promise to update at least once during my 2-week-long trip. I hope the plane doesn't crash because I really really like to get there. Once in Cleveland, I'm going to find Oswald for me and Mimi for Asad. Is anyone interested in Drew himself? Anyone? Alright, I'll take him myself. And Lewis too. at 3:24 AM by negar Tuesday, August 09, 2005
Optimism is Overrated
........................................................................................I have nothing cheerful to write. I have a lot of bitter things to write but I don't want to be responsible for ruining your day. So hereby I make it Despair.com's mission to do that for me. Look at the individual designs, especially those in Positive Negations, Underachievers, Pessimisitic Visions, Idiotic Insights and Failure to Succeed. Ooops, that's practically all of them. Look at the rest if you've got the time. Disclaimer: I am NOT responsible for whatever action you take after being exposed to these brilliant designs. P.S. I know what I will buy myself on my next birthday! at 12:40 AM by negar Sunday, August 07, 2005
Wish
........................................................................................When you're running in circles like a maniac, don't you wish someone would just grab the back of your shirt and tell you to sit the f*** down? at 8:32 PM by negar Wednesday, August 03, 2005
