a thanksgiving miracle.

hello. my name is jane and i'd like to state that i am seriously burnt out.
why you say? because of a lovely thing named COLLEGE.
granted, yes. i love it. with all of my being. i have a good life. i love my major. i have good roommates and friends. honestly.
but class is killing me. i am so tired. next week, before thanksgiving break, some brilliant (not) person decided to make tuesday friday instruction. WHY. i don't even know. i was dreading it. i have a class monday wednesday friday at 9 am that i hate with a fiery burning passion in my bosom. i was sure that he wouldn't cancel class that tuesday. and i was sitting in class wishing i could die.
but he cancelled class.
it's a thanksgiving miracle, charlie brown.
hallelujah, praise the Lord.
that is all.

because sometimes...

we all need someone to hold on to.

Maybe I am strange but I love watching the votes come in. It's so exciting. History in the making.

 

crushin' hard

celebrity crush list pour moi (in no particular order):

1. harrison ford (really. hans solo. indiana jones. what more can you ask for.)

2. [the young] kurt russell (possibly my first real celebrity crush. watch the computer wore tennis shoes, the strongest man in the world, and the invisible man. you will understand.)

3. ryan gosling (a little cliche, but really.)

4. josh duhamel (his personality. his HAIR. oh goodness.)

5. michael buble (he has a voice that melts me like butter. and he's adorable to boot.)

6. paul wesley (ok, i am embarrassed to admit this one. don't judge me. it's that time of the semester that i need a distraction...and vampire diaries came up on my netflix suggestions and i'd heard it was good...ok yah. this sounds dumb. but really. he. is. gorgeous.)

7. jim parsons (ok, i know he plays sheldon cooper. but i love sheldon. also, he's gay. so unfortunate.)

8. neil patrick harris (also gay. so so so sad.)

9. jason segel (oh my gosh. he is adorable. i love him as marshall. so cute with lily.)

10. matthew goode (one of the only men that looks good with facial hair. but really.)

Real.

“What is REAL?" asked the Velveteen Rabbit one day... "Does it mean having things that buzz inside you and a stick-out handle?"

"Real isn't how you are made," said the Skin Horse. "It's a thing that happens to you. When [someone] loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real."

"Does it hurt?" asked the Rabbit.

"Sometimes," said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. "When you are Real you don't mind being hurt."

"Does it happen all at once, like being wound up," he asked, "or bit by bit?"

"It doesn't happen all at once," said the Skin Horse. "You become. It takes a long time. That's why it doesn't often happen to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. 

"Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand... once you are Real you can't become unreal again. It lasts for always.” 

―Margery Williams, The Velveteen Rabbit 

continuation of hipster love.

ok, it's official. i'm obsessed. i wasn't going to say anything else, but then penelope brought up mackenzie bourg...and she drew me back in.
for real. look at this child.

those glasses. that hair. the voice. his style. oh, it just makes me melt.
here's a hipster recap of my halloween. in honor of the beauty of mackenzie.

oh, how i love this. so much.

because normal cereal is too mainstream

i don't really know...i figured it sounded hipster-ish

also. sad news of the day. i lost my hipster glasses. totes depresh. haha yesterday was a rough day for me. coordination wise. i dropped a screw down a sink at work, i lost my glasses and i somehow lost eyeliner i had just bought, as well. fail fail FAIL. oh well.
and another thing. so many girls got their mission calls yesterday and it made me happy...and a little bit jealous. there MUST be a reason i'm staying. just don't know what, yet. we'll see.
patience is not my strong point.
last note. halloween brings out WEIRD WEIRD people. campus was crawlin'. i saw...
-darth maul
-red skull (from captain america)
-captain america
-batman (times a million)
-buddy the elf
-raincloud
-anime, anime, ANIME
-wizards
-ZOMBIES
-big bird
one i missed seeing was sexy sax man. that child is epic.

The voice

Hi. I watch the voice. and I like it. and the fact that I like it enough to write about it... makes me feel like I need to shut down my Internet for a week and read.

 

I am going to justify it and say I am enriching my mind with musical education. yup going with it.

 

I watched it last season. and frankly I don't even remember who won. I don't think I cared for them much.

 

This season my favorites are  Mackenzie Bourg, Terry Mcdermott, and Melanie Martinez. They just really stood out to me from the beginning. and I just love them more and more.

 

 

Mckenzie is Jane's hipster love. ( I think it's hipster week) and when he said call me maybe... I said it was nice knowing you ( see what I did there. clever eh?)  I thought all his adorable hipster Harry Potter-ness would vanish..... nope still got it.

 

also?

Cee lo... creeps me out

Christina... needs better clothes and wants to create an army of Minny x-tina's and drive me insane with her use of x-tina. seriously. stop. now.

Blake.. I used to like. but now its like a lot of styles go way over his head and he mumbles something about pitch instead of coaching.

Adam. has a funny smile where his eyes disappear. and he is great.

 

Ok I am done... and I should go to bed... and turn of my laptop... and read a book... or get a life... or vow to never talk about reality tv again.

 

ok. the end.
