This is my 1000th post.
I thought I’d make my 1000th post an announcement post. As you all know I’ve been planning on transferring to NC State this summer for a bit now. That would mean a 5 hour move from home. Well, I decided against it. I need to stay here in western North Carolina for a bit longer, graduate from UNC-A and only be an hour from my momma. I already potentially have an amazing roommate lined...
I must say
that Jamie Foxx bringing on his sister with Down Syndrome made me like him quite a lot. How much fun was she having?! Best day of her life!
Well played, sir. Well played.

Am I the only one
that would completely eat shit walking on stage to accept a Grammy? I can barely walk in flats. I can’t imagine how Beyonce just runs up on stage in 5 inch boots.

“Finally, old Sally started coming up the stairs, and I started down to meet her....”
– The Catcher in the Rye, page 124.
This passage started my undying love for the perfect black beret. I always imagine myself in this scene, standing on the stairs in a coat and beret and being pined over like that. Funny thing, the only person I ever pictured myself marrying knew exactly what I was...

“In a word: optimism. I look at the good. When you are relaxed, your body is...”
– Alice Herz-Sommer on her secret to a long life.
I just read this beautiful article about her life. It’s truly touching and I’d urge you to give it a read.

“If I don’t get a god damned Bertie Beetle from your trip: FRIENDSHIP OVER.”
– I may or may not take my love for Australian candy too seriously.
Happy Australia Day to my beautiful Australian blogging friends! In honor of you I shall hold Asheville’s first ever Tim Tam Slam Competition this weekend.

This is why I'm not spontaneous
I’m a very organized person. I like to plan every detail of every minute with weeks advance. I’m trying to be less anal and more spontaneous. Yesterday when I was invited to go on a last minute weekend long trip to Boone I said “ok!”
Fastforward to 3pm today. I’m bringing laundry in to my room and one of my parent’s cats slips in. It’s the evil, nasty,...

To the person trying to hack into my accounts:
I received all of the emails this afternoon. Not too smooth. If you really want all of my passwords just ask! I’ll probably let you log in as me, though why you’d want to log in to my super top secret last.fm account is beyond me.

“Your mother has been writing very inappropriate things on my facebook wall!”
– The first words uttered to me today by my long lost friend Karis. We hadn’t seen each other since last spring and this was our first conversation.
You have to love my mom. You really just do. Really.

woohoo! I am truly friend blessed.
My best friend and favorite cousin are coming to visit! They felt so terrible for not being there for me last night after I launched the Jade Distress Signal that they both took the time off. It’s great to have friends that care about you so much that they’re willing to venture from Florida to North Carolina just to cheer you up.
It’s also great to have friends (Claire) that...

I realized that I could sit in bed and cry all day
or I could be a big girl and move on.
Moving on…

I physically cannot breathe right now
I don’t know what to do! I really don’t!
Tanya I just keep thinking of your sweet email. All of your encouraging words, your love with Kevin, etc. Your post on soul mates. It’s all that’s getting me through. I love all of you girls on tumblr so much. You keep me strong, you keep me somewhat grounded.

I'm quite hurt right now
and could really use a friend. One that understood, one that wasn’t busy, one that was here.

I know you’re going...
Dear cow that lives in the field next to my house,
I realize that you are probably giving birth right now and that’s great for you; I’m really happy for you and your husband cow, but could you tone if the eff down? Some of us are trying to sleep over here. You’ve been in labor for at least two hours now and honestly I’m getting a little tired of hearing you moo/howl.

American Idol's Goal Tonight Is
how many times can we make Jade cry?
Cry count: TWO
Down’s Syndrome followed by Alzheimer’s? If that damn Sarah McLachlan commercial comes on next I will NOT be surprised.

girl calls Aziz a douche on twitter, he messages...
sade:
“I complained about Aziz Ansari on twitter last night and he messages on me on facebook. I don’t know whether to be impressed that he cares or creeped out that he went out of his way to contact me.”
I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that I also hate Aziz. He is a big d-bag. What a giant loser that guy is! hah!
AZIZ, PLEASE EMAIL ME. LET’S TALK ABOUT IT

Is it wrong
that the only reason I’m hanging out with my parents in Greenville, SC all day tomorrow is because I know they’re going to go somewhere really awesome for dinner?
drashley:
Today is a sad day and I just want to cry and be hugged.
1 out of 2 ain’t bad, I guess.
Dr Ashley, you are formally invited to my pity party. Why am I upset? Oh just because I’m trying to move and strike out on my own but due to snow days I have worked ONE day in the past TWO WEEKS and will have a check that won’t even break $40.
Snow, I am all sorts of pissed at you...

it’s a girl thing. we don’t like starting the conversation because we like to feel like you want to talk to us. we like to feel like the wait was worth something. we like feeling like you’ve waited for us like we’ve waited for you. but the number one reason we hate talking first is because we hate to seem needy or clingy. that’s why we’re scared....

This is my life
Today I’m sitting at my computer
I’m just sitting here watching Wizards of Waverly Place something intellectual and drinking tea.
When my dear cousin sends me a link
to a porn site
featuring
my best friend from elementary/middle school.
Yep.
That is all I have to say about that.
(This post was written in haiku format because I think it brings a certain level of anticipation.)

sitting here on tumblr while icing my leg down after my run tonight.
and somehow feel like i’m multi-tasking.
lame, huh?!
Times I feel like I’m multitasking on tumblr:
While eating and on tumblr
While on AIM and on tumblr
While sitting at the computer in an upright position on tumblr
While on the phone on tumblr
While in my bed on tumblr (I like to call this one my...
Some mornings I wake up
and I’m like “It’s 10 degrees out. Today is such a good day to cuddle Cleo all day and stay in bed until 5pm.” That’s ok every now and then, right? Well it’s not ok when you’ve done it for almost 2 weeks straight. I work 10 hours a week and I’m not in school this semester since I’m transferring to NC State this summer. I am SO BORED. All I do...
