Blogspot/Google is reeeally gettin' on my nerves -__-

After about 30 minutes of trying to log into this dang site, I have finally made it! When I came to do my first update since being back last week, it also took me a while to log on. For some reason, google wouldn't load this page and then it kept taking me to the my.belmont page to log in then it wouldn't let me log out of my belmont account that showed up when I was in google...it is just a mess. So i'm guessing this all might have to do with the fact that I have 2 google accounts. One that is with school that is connected to a pop account and then one that I have on my own...and also the fact that I don't even use my google account to log onto blogspot, I signed up with my yahoo e-mail address! haha. But, I digress. I just had to get that out because it has been reeeally frustratin' me and who am I kiddin' it isn't like anyone reads this thing anyway, haha. In spite of that last comment, I will still spare anyone the boredom of my update about Monday night (when I went to an amaaaazing show by Butterfly Boucher and Katie Herzig (two of my new favorite artists) and saw Missy Higgins there. ...cause anyone who reads this must be aware with my obsession appreciation of Missy.) (which, by the way, she left Nashville today...thought I should add)

Ok, so, I have a couple of topics I feel I could write about, but I feel like I have already written enough about these subjects (the future, school, a career) the past few months and wouldn't want to bore you even more. However, I am interning right now and literally have nothing else to do (other than input cd's, but how easy and un-time consuming is that? exactly.) So I feel the only way to consume my time at the moment is type. (although I guess I could try to look over some of my finance homework but, that isn't due for another 5 days so, who am I kidding? ...also, wrote an ethics paper earlier today that is due tomorrow so, got that out of the way...now what?) OH, OK, I thought of a topic.

I'm so excited about so much new music coming out soon! (three of which I have already mentioned just two paragraphs up, it shouldn't be too hard of a guess) But there was a cd that came out yesterday that is great and I would really recommend! Also, seeing as so many people are dumbfounded by the fact I don't listen to country to much anymore, I believe this is a good socially acceptable cd that would be a good example of the music I am in to (since everyone/anyone i've ever shown Missy Higgins to hates her -___-) SO ANYWAY, here it is, you ready? The cd that I bought today iiiis: Ben Rector. I listened to it on the way to, from, and once I got back from class. It really is a great cd. Actually, I need to correct myself, the cd is actually entitled Something Like This, byyy Ben Rector. But anyway, if anyone has an extra minute, they should go find it on iTunes and listen to the little snippets of the songs. Or, I will include a little youtube video on here of a preview of the cd...although it isn't that long or a preview of much of the songs so, I still recommend checking out iTunes. ;)

Alright well, THAT'S ALL FOLKS. I won't bore you any longer. You're welcome.

Lets Give Them Something to Talk About

Well, i'm updating again so you know what that means, phone time at Borman! haha. And I was just thinking, I really do need to start picking topics or soomething interesting if I am going to continue this whole "blog" thing because honestly, who cares about my ramblings of doing nothing...that is assuming if anyone reads this anyway, which is highly doubtful. So, give me time to think of some topics I can write about other than my boring life and ridiculous thoughts and i'll get back to ya. In the mean time...that's all i've got, haha. So here it goes:

Yesterday I updated my Facebook status about being unmotivated and nothing could be more true then that  statement. Here is what I have to do for school: write a blog update reviewing a book I was supposed to read over spring break (due tomorrow), have a rough power point and outline due for a group project (also tomorrow)...oh, and about cloud computing nonetheless. I have researched and read about this topic and still am not 100% sure what exactly that all entails, haha. So anyway, another book I was supposed to read over break Things Fall Apart. The test for that is Thursday which will be followed by a group paper written on the book and a movie we watched in class. I was reading the summary of the book on sparknotes and in just that amount of time I got bored and have no idea what the book is really about. All I know is there are dozens of Japanese/Chinese/I don't even know what names so naturally I couldn't follow along if I tried...which I did...kinda. But I guess that is basically it for school, which just thinking about it now is already getting me depressed, haha..well, not really, but kinda. I mean, it isn't thaaat much but, just let me wallow for a minute. And one of the reasons, I believe, that has helped in my feelings of unmotivation, my new terrible addiction: Tumblr.

Now let me just talk for a minute about Tumblr.

Good ole Sammy convinced me during Christmas break I believe to finally jump on yet another social media bandwagon. I was very reluctant because honestly, who needs another social media site? Not I. But I did anyway. Basically, you go on there and "reblog" pictures or, new vocab word "gifs," which are just like little video clips, 1-3 seconds without audio. People talk to each other (if they know one another, I on the other hand don't know anyone, so I just observe and reblog) but anyway, it is quite fascinating. After searching some topics I came across this big group of Grey's Anatomy fans...awesome, just the people I need to get to know/study (I know that sounds weird)/observe and ask questions about for the third year writing class. So, that has worked out well except for one slight downfall. They have sucked me in. I am following all these people whose life is Grey's Anatomy on tumblr and I can barely keep up! haha. And I can't close down my computer until I know I have looked at everything that I've missed from the day...and I must admit, I share many of their feelings/concerns/whathaveyou. So here I am at whatever time of night, 12:30, knowing if I am up that late it better be doing all that work mentioned above ^, yet, I am on Tumbrl...and I can't. get. off. But, this iiis research my semester long ethnographic study, right? haha. Well anyway, I won't go into too much detail but, let's just say Grey's has been on a 3 week hiatus so far and these people are going insane.  Now that's all I have to say about that.

As I know no one has read it this far because i'm sure you got bored somewhere up there. (I mean, the final reader count till the bottom has got to be prettyyy low when you only start out with 1, 2, maaaybe 3 readers to begin with, haha.) So I guess I will stop this nonsense, although i'm sure I could go on much longer since I do still have another oh, maybe 30 minutes up at the front desk...then back to doing nothing in my little corner of an office in the back, haha. Oh you people. bye.

(this wasn't originally going to be included in the blog so, don't feel the need to keep reading unless you are like me and are extremely bored at the moment)
....oh, and I really didn't know if I should include the whole Tumbrl stuff because Tumblr, for many, is where they go to reblog how they are feeling at that moment. It's a way to get your emotions out without actually have to talk about them. I saw someone do an update (I can't remember exactly) but something along the lines of: The worst news you could hear: I found your tumbrl. then had a "gif" of Mrs. J making some shocking face...it was quite funny but also kinda true. I don't post tooo much stuff on there in relation to what's goin on in my crazy noggin', because like that one update ^ I don't want anyone saying that to me, haha. But I think it is good to have a place where you can post whatever you want and not have to worry what people will think/ask about. So, hence to reason for my hesitense to mention I even have one buuut, since I know no one reads this, I thought I would be pretty safe...and also because I don't post anything I wouldn't want people seeing, because it is after-all, public, haha. So anyway, there was just more of my rant about Tumblr...dang, I kinda want to go on now and check up on everyone! haha ;) but, we'll save that for another time, I mean, this iiiis Borman's computer. ha.

UPDATE:
Dave, yes, the member of Lady Antebellum just called....I answered. Yep. successful first celebrity "run-in" at Borman. ha.

Some clever title

Well I'm back. I don't really have much to blog about but, I have nothing else to do so, i figured why not. Tomorrow at this time I will be on my way to North Carolina to hang out with Annie for a little bit and then it's off Saturday for Florida! I guess i'm looking forward to this spring break. I'm more looking forward to my break from interning and working than anything else, haha. I actually really love all my teachers and my classes aren't too bad this semester. Guess ratemyprofesser did really well for me, haha.

Anyway, back to spring break. Here's the plan: i'm interning right now (go figure, haha...but I just went around and asked everyone if they had anything for me and they don't so...yea), leave at 4:30, head back to the apartment to do laundry, maybe watch that movie that came in from Netflix a couple days ago, i'm sure see Sam at some point since i leave in the morning, piddle around on the computer, pack, bed. Tomorrow! Class from 9-9:50, then at approximately 10:12 pull out to head to North Carolina! I'm actually really really excited and looking forward to this drive, haha. It has been a while since I took a nice long (however many hours) drive by myself. Just me and my music. Those are my favorite. Just something about the open road, pretty scenery, and music that relaxes me and puts me in a good mood. So yay!


Anyway, so that is what I will be up to from now until tomorrow evening. Oh, but in other news, Charly finally helped me realize why I have always had back problems when i stand for a prolonged amount of time! hahah. ...although i will not disclose that information here. Anyway, in my boredom I might come back on and write something else just for the fun of it, but for now, this is all I can think of. Why the heck am I even writing this? haha.

Oh well...
