You know what I hate?
The Elements of Style.
Seriously, what kind of pompous, pretentious asshole wrote this piece of crap?
Oh. Nevermind. That should have been "assholes."
It could have been great if both of the authors weren't complete grammatical incompetents.
I just adore how they constantly contradict their own rules in the same passage in which they explain them. My English teacher has us correct the grammar in the book. We're correcting grammatical errors in a book that is supposed to teach grammar. Really? Really?

It seems like lately I have so much to do and so little time. So many tests. So many social engagements. So much studying to do for that huge test that determines your future and all of that. I just want to paint my nails and watch Idol. Is that so much to ask for?

Negative post is negative. It's that time of the month night month tmi?

2009 brought me new friends, ONTDAI, Kradam, dailybooth, some heart break, new music, new tv, plenty of cellcasts, youtube, lots of concerts, Figment, a larger vocabulary, a smaller wallet, fannish tendencies, a very bad hair cut, a bit of an epiphany, and a lot of fun.

All in all, it's been a good year. Talk to you in 2010, friends.

Can we talk about how this was the best night ever in the history of the ontd_ai radio show? Because seriously, I almost peed in my pants I was laughing so hard. So many trolls! It was like the glory days.

Plus before and after I watched National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. MERRY CHRISTMAS. THE SHITTER WAS FULL. Best night ever. Unfortunately now I have to go study more.

ANYWAY, I won't be checking my flist much this week. I'll probably still post though because I tend to update more when I'm stressed than I do when I'm content with life. But yeah. Heads up.

So I'm reading about selective membranes or whatever, enjoying the silence. Then all the sudden the alarm on my phone goes off, and my phone starts playing "Strut" on the loudest volume possible. I shriek, fall off my bed, hit my head on my book case, and roll under my bed. After staying there for a few minutes anticipating a bomb threat, I realized it was just time to take a break.

My head still hurts.

Amount of time spent studying over the past three days: Roughly 15 hours.
Amount of time spent sleeping over the past two days: 5 hours (plus 30 minutes at lunch in my car, but that doesn't really count.)

I.
Am.
Dying.

AND FINALS AREN'T UNTIL NEXT WEEK. WHY IS THIS HAPPENING TO ME?

This morning I walked outside to put the Christmas cards in the mailbox, and the guys working on my neighbor's roof were singing Christmas carols. I lol'd so hard. They were hammering as they sung the "Fa la la, la la la, la la la" part of Deck The Halls.

Sometimes I love the human race.

Barring any freak accident, I'll be mailing all Christmas cards going out of the country tomorrow! I spent the last half an hour calculating postage. I had forgotten just how bad it was. Ugh.

But you guys are worth it. <3

Soooooo... I can't tell if I'm tasting blood or envelope paste right now. I'm hoping it's the latter.

Also,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY timecake!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY tiffanylovato!


And guess who has a paid account now?
I LOVE YOU, pandorablu.

Is this a good time to remind you guys about CHRISTMAS CARDS?
I swear, every time I plan on bringing them up something horrible happens, like ontd_ai is having it's monthly apocalypse. I'm going to be mailing them out this week. If you want one and haven't said anything, you need to get on it! Though if you're late you know I'll still send you one because I'm me and I could never deny you Christmas joy.

What's up in your lives, lovelies? My sister is really sick right now; my dad thinks she has the swine flu. :/

If you missed my Christmas card post and would like one from me, be sure to check out this post!

Also, if you're on youtube, subscribe to the collab channel I'm going to be a part of. It starts up tomorrow!

Well, this post was boring.


AT LEAST ADAM PERFORMS SOON. <3
Gaga was so fierce tonight. Her piano was on FIRE guys. ON FIRE.
I'm pissed she didn't win Best Break Through. Stupid AMAs.

Christmas Card Post!

It's that time again! Well, almost. I'm trying to be on the ball this year. I've already put up the Christmas tree and have had David Archuleta's Christmas cd playing since November 1st. I'm probably disturbing the neighbors with my holiday cheer, but whatever. I plan to mail out all the cards on the first week of December so they reach everyone in time. I bought them while I was at Disney World in October--they're pretty amazing if I do say so myself. I seriously spent forever trying to decide on cards that everyone on my flist would like, and I think I picked out some really great ones. Anyway, I'd honestly like to send everyone one this year because I feel exceptionally close to all of you guys.

So if you'd like one, you can comment below (comments are screened!), message me on lj, or email me your address at ashlynwashere@rocketmail.com.

Look at how easy this is! I have a nifty box for you. All you have to do is fill everything out. Aren't I considerate?

Name (RL or LJ): Address Line 1: Address Line 2: Address Line 3: Address Line 4: Address Line 5:

Also, if you're planning on sending cards this season, link me to your entries! <3 I'd love some holiday cheer as well.

Happy birthday ribambelles and mushroom18!

You two are proof that that livejournal is full of lovely people. I'm so glad I've gotten the chance to know both of you. <3 Have great birthdays.

Another charming typo from yours truly:
"Do you ever get tired of it?" he asked, mouth half full of chesty cow.
I... don't even know.

If anyone wants to give me the name of a small town in Louisiana (or make up one, for that matter), I would be grateful!

In other news, I made a chictopia! I'm really excited to start uploading pictures tomorrow. The name comes from a quote from Veronica Mars. "It's amazing how fleeting perfection can be."

I've had the flu all week, and consequently have lost a ton of weight. I can see my cheekbones now. I know I shouldn't be happy about it, but I am.
