So I'm sitting here between classes trying to find something productive to do...and I end up browsing some random blogrings. For some reason this one kid's little summary of himself really stuck out...it was something like, "Hey, I'm 13 years old and single (I know it sucks)....blah blah blah."
Ok, this kid is 13 years old, and already complaining about not having a girlfriend. Does he really feel like he's a complete loser because he's 13 and is still single? I feel like I should clue him in on how dumb it is to have "boyfriends/girlfriends" when you're 13. But then I'd probably just be sounding like his mom, huh?
My happy moment for the day: today in my French phonetics class, my professor had me read this paragraph, and when I was done he said, "MALLORY! Felicitations! Tes "R"s sont parfaits! Je suis vraiment fier!" which translates into, "MALLORY! Congratulations! Your Rs are perfect! I am so very proud!" He had been trying for about a year now to get me to have that little phlegmy sound when I pronounce my Rs so I could sound like a real French person, and I had been resisting forever, because I like my American accent, and because it requires more brainpower to phlegm up the Rs. But today, they just came out, so maybe I'm learning something in this class after all! (I sure did just realize that that paragraph will be utterly meaningless to most people, but oh well, it's my moment of glory, deal with it .)
My second happy moment of the day: I know how to spell phlegm.

take that Rubik
Ba dum da dum....it's Friday! Which means homecoming is in full swing here at CMSU. I just got done playing at the pep rally...fun stuff. A little Bohemian Rhapsody is always the right medicine for a little pepping up, right?
I solved my Rubik's cube today, and it was a frickin sweet feeling. I also got to check out some awesome (and some not so awesome) karaoke in the Union during my Taco Bell lunch with Megan and Katie. I think "You've Lost that Loving Feeling" may be the ultimate greatest song to karaoke to EVER. Good job Nathan, I don't really know you, but you get the cool kid of the day award.
Ugh, I just remembered I have to call someone. I am so bad about returning phone calls, that's definitely something I need to work on.
OH, tonight before the pep rally I watched The Terminal with Hannah, she got it when she was in China, one of those bootlegged copies that's legal to buy over there. I liked this movie a lot more the second time around, probably because I was mad when I saw it the first time. We also tried to watch Spiderman 2, but it was a TERRIBLE copy...the English subtitles were from a different movie, and the picture wasn't even there half the time. Imagine watching Peter Parker talk to his professor, and the subtitles say that his professor is saying to him, "Today you were voted one of the 10 sexiest men in Orange County." I kid you not, that was a real scene that we watched.

brendan fraser...what a man.
Mmmk, so what's been happening? A LOT! At least it sure seems like it.
Yesterday, had the TR interview, it turns out that they don't hire people just for the summer...oh well, I'm over it. Then, I went and got my hair cut, and not just a little trim...we're talking me minus 14 inches of hair. But it was good, I like my hair now, and I know some special child will also benefit from the hair that I let go of. What a great feeling that is!
Then, went to see Troy with Josh and Mike. For anyone that doubts that Brad Pitt is a good-looking dude, see that movie. It will erase every doubt in your mind. Anyway, we got out of the movie, and found we were basically in the middle of a monsoon! We waded through the parking lot, where the water was up to our ankles already, and coming down even harder. Needless to say, we were soaked by the time we made it to the car. It was so much fun!!!
Today...went to church, had lunch, and then spent some much-needed time reading my Bible. It was definitely time well spent, it made me realize that lately I have been using my time selfishly, and not spending enough of it examining God's word.
Then I turned on the TV, and found that With Honors was showing on the ABC Family.channel. I forgot what a great flick that is! If you have never seen it, you really should....SOON! Maybe I should buy it...it does have Brendan Fraser and Lucas's mom from One Tree Hill...and Joe Pesci's a cool cat, too. I shall ponder this dilemma....and make a decision soon.
Then, Megan called me! (She's such a great roommate, in case you didn't already know it). And I got to talk with Liz and Jillian about everything that's been going on lately, GOOD TIMES!
"but you can't come because you don't speak French!"
