Whales are a great collectible animal. Not ACTUAL whales! That would be incredibly difficult! I mean whale themed items.. like these!

Happy December
Today is December 1st and after a loooooong day of nonstop rain yesterday, today's gift to Cincinnati is a flurry of snow :) What a wonderful way to wake up to a wonderful month! AND I just realized I get to start my advent chocolate calendar today! So much to celebrate! Advent chocolate calendars are so great. Every day of the month of December you open up a square door and receive a piece of chocolate for the day! On the one I have now, you have to search for the day! Very exciting! And now starts the most wonderful month of the year! Happy holidays and happy birthday to me! Spread the cheer!

Cool Things I Forgot About
Sometimes when I see something I really like on the internet, I save it so some time when I think of it or just choose to look at the things I saved, I am pleasantly surprised! And I always am surprised. It's like when you purposely leave some cash in your pocket so you'll find it later (or maybe that's just me!) I really knew it was there all along, but I totally forget.
Here are some things I came across lately...

Twitter?
I just signed up on twitter. Seemed like a good idea. I mean everyone is always talking about it, especially on late night tv! And those guys are sometimes funny! I wanna see what they are always "tweeting" about!
AND I have about a bagilion posts on here that I started, but never had a chance to finish. So many good ideas lost to the world of posts to edit. Well I can start TWEETING stuff.
To be honest, I'm pretty confused by twitter... I'm not sure how everything works yet. I've got a lot to learn. It's a crazyyy world out there!
The best part about twitter?
THE FAIL WHALE!

POSTER SALES!!
There was a POSTER SALE going on today on UC's campus. LOVE IT! I stopped by on my way to class and looked at as much as I could under the big white tent at McMicken Commons. It was the perfect start to my day! I had some coffee and looked at the posters while enjoying the beautiful weather (75 and sunny.)
They had your pretty typical posters there:
- Bob Marley (of course)
- Flowers (the flower ones weren't that good though)
- Scenic views and inspirational messages
- College stuff like the periodic table of mixology and drinking game rules. (and Animal House. Yes it was with the college stuff not the movies.)
- Movies - You gotch your Boondock Saints, your Hangovers, your Superbads, your Pulp Fictions, blah blah blah typical.
- Megan Fox and Johnny Depp - Not sure why I linked those together. Maybe because people think both of them are really hot.
- "Hot girls" - I don't have much info on them because I didn't look at that section. Sorry.
- T.V. Shows - Well of course everybody loves FRIENDS. There were about a million of those. Then there was House, Family Guy, Gossip Girl, Arrested Development, and Glee (there was only one though. I was surprised.) And.... are you ready? Drum roll please... SEX AND THE CITY! They had two options. One was the four women looking rather sophisticated, but kinda boring. The other one (the one I got) was of Carrie Bradshaw with New York lights shining behind her and the name Carrie practically glowing across her shirt :) I also got a little poster of The OC for Kara and me :)
- Nerdy stuff like science fiction (star wars etc...) and nintendo (not gonna lie I always kinda want them... especially super mario!)
They had other stuff too like a Campbell's soup poster that I liked a lot. I don't know why I liked it. It was just Campbell's tomato soup. They also had maps and maps of the world and quotes and stuff. AND they had a poster of snoopy layin' on his little dog house that says "I could lay here for the rest of my life." That got Kara (my roommate) and I talking about our jealousy of snoopy because he just gets to lay there all day on his dog house and do whatever he wants! That lucky little dog.
I'm surprised they didn't have any Justin Bieber posters! Ha... Justin Bieber... and there was no Ke$ha :( The poster I REALLY wanted, though, was SHWAYZE! I wasn't surprised they didn't have any though. I'm pretty sure Shwayze only has like one poster.
Well I'll leave you with this little fact: There are more homosexual male bats than any other mammal. Kara Gandy told me that.

Foreign Friend Requests
Ok, don't have much time! Lots of studying to do! But I just wanted to mention the random friend requests I get on facebook (I'm sure many of you do too) from completely random people I have DEFINITELY never met with names written in languages I don't even recognize.
WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE?
I currently have 11 of these type of requests pending on my facebook. I have a couple pretty random mutual friends with a few of the foreigners, but other than that I see absolutely no connection. It makes me laugh a little... but I really don't understand it...
like this one...
Welp! I guess that's all I have to say... I would talk about other things, but there is just not enough time today. Later Gator.
P.S. I found out a lot of people actually read my blog (or at least look at it) based on the number of page views! HA! Who would have thought? Maybe I'll become famous! ... yeah... ok well bye.

Some songs, voting, and football
I've been introduced/reunited with some great songs thanks to some super housemates and some facebook home-paging ;) This list is completely random, as in the songs have nothing to do with each other and I am completely aware of this. I guess it's a good representation of my iTunes. RANDOM! But I love it all!

My Bike
I have the best bike in the entire world and I love to ride it all day every day. My brother, Dominic, put it together for me after he found a frame sitting on the side of the road.

Robot Unicorn Attack
So I haven't "blogged" in a while, and I was gonna just not do it over the summer but I felt compelled to mention Robot Unicorn Attack. Don't be quick to judge this game. It's the bomb dot com.

The smell of rain
There's a light drizzle outside as dormitory residents say farewells, pack up, and head home. The smell of the rain is fantastic. I just want to sit on a bench and read a book or just take it all in. It being the smell of the rain, the end of freshman year, and all that I have learned here.
I am in love with the rain. Thunderstorms, the gloom, the rain drops, and the amazing green that the world becomes. Don't get me wrong, I am a sunshine fan for sure, but a nice rain is just right sometimes. There is no thunder or lightening happening right now. It is a quiet, peaceful rain as campus slows down and the hallways, usually full of hustle, bustle, and screaming also calm down.
When I'm at home I like to sit on the porch during storms. I always walk out there and my Dad is already sitting there with his blanket just looking at the rain. Like father like daughter I guess.

The End(s)
Here we go again. Almost another week GONE. Where did it go? I couldn't tell ya. Everything is starting to wrap up now in preparation for the end of the quarter. I will be going home in 4 short days, which means everything we do right now is "the last time"... at least for the year :) which is NUTS because I feel like I just moved in yesterday! But I in fact moved in 9 months ago and summer "vacation" is now quickly approaching. The sound of those large rolling bins they supply in the dorms for moving stuff is a constant noise out the window now as people move out. As sad as it is to say goodbye, I love all of the ending stuff. Like, LAST DAY OF CLASSES, or LAST CHEMISTRY TEST! It's time for summer and old friends and pools and bonfires and s'mores and boats... and stats class? and work? The point is I am very excited for summer and to get out of this super HOT dorm. I swear it is 100 degrees in here, but I'm gonna miss everyone so much!! Tear.
It's always exciting in grade school when school lets out and everyone cheers for summer vacation! Now things are a little different, especially because everyone leaves at different times and it's all going to be so different next year when we're living in a HOUSE! HOLLA! But there's almost a little more excitement because I get to see all my friends I never get to see because they go to schools far far away like New York and Californiarl... jerks... anywho I will see them soon and all shall be merry :)
Here comes summer lovin'
