New Years Adam

And we are entering the last week of winter break... NOOOOOOOOOOO! I'm not ready for adult responsibility  I just want to become a tub of lard glued to my bet with my feline sitting by my side. Nah, that is a lie, I don't desire that to be my fate. It just sounds so good to be lazy. I guess the lazy bug bit me. I also want junk food. Greasy Tacos, Cookies, brownies...I live the healthy life!

Tomorrow is New Years Eve and there is a 90% chance I won't get a blog out.  I'm working a half day and I have to get a new license because mine is in terrible shape. I don't exactly look over the age of 21 so my license gets looked at all the time. The plastic covering is bubbling and coming off. I've almost been rejected buying alcohol 3 times because of the shape of my ID. It looks pretty sad. I also need to purchase booze for my New Years Eve Plans. And after that I need to drive an hour to celebrate the new year. Which I will not be bringing my laptop too. However plan for a New Years Day Blog!  I think I will create some resolutions that day and try to keep it up with this blog, we will see since I've tried to abandon soda like 50 times. 

You might be wondering why the title is New Years Adam. I get it from a high school teacher. Every year she throws a Christmas Adam party (which I never attend) but basically Adam comes before Eve. So New Years Adam comes the day before New Years Eve! Quite clever. 

I think I need to leave my bed now. Things to do...

Laziest Day Ever

Today was the Laziest Day of all time. I woke up at 9 thinking that it had to be like 6 am. I then proceeded to watch youtube videos until I took about nap about six different times. My mom and I were supposed to see Les Miserables but I just could not bring myself to get out of my pajamas. I basically ran around the house pestering my mother. Diving into her chair before she could sit down, playing with her hair. basically being a five year old...who can drink alcohol.

Well after many more naps. we managed to sit on the couch to watch

HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS! PART TWO!!!!!!

Now there is something you all should know about me prior to commenting about this film. I'm a big movie crier. Like seriously I can cry at just about anything. I get teary eyed pretty fast. Anywhose this epic conclusion gets be a couple of  times. 

I have a bump on my tongue...it is either from a burn or if I bit my tongue.

Many of you might not get this...however since my power outage pokemon yellow adventure. 

I find this quite humorous.

Growing Some Man Balls

It is finally FRIDAY! Thank goodness! I'm so sleepy! I've been working hard all week. Every morning this past week has been like...crawling out of bed. It's hard to believe a week ago we were without power! But since it is finally the weekend we were all able to get on the couch and watch...

HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS! PART ONE!!!!

Gosh, this movie is so dark, so sad so...yeah. I was suprised how much my dad remembered from the past movies. bringing up points- making it clear he's been actually paying attention to the films we've been watching! I'm SO PROUD! He also sad down the ENTIRE movie. Which if you know my dad, it can be hard to do! Anyways maybe the adventure will continue tomorrow!

New Years is coming and I never have any fun plans. I always end up staying in and falling asleep before midnight. I sort of made plans this year but I am unsure if I want to keep them or not. Being anxiety prone makes it complex for me to keep plans, but I'm not big on house parties and I might be going to one.  Eh maybe I need to grow some man balls and go have drunken fun! WOOT

TGTIF!

Oh crap, is today a different day? I thought today was already completed blog wise. TGTIF! I know it's usually TGIF, but I think it stands for Thank God Tomorrow Is Friday. I'm so tired. Unfortunately this will make it my last week of Winter Break! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I'M NOT READY TO GO BACK TO THE HELL THAT IS MY EDUCATION!

Other than work, I haven't really done shit. We still haven't continued our Harry Potter Marathon. I still haven't seen the Hobbit or Les Mis. I've barely seen some of my friends! I'm just trying to survive my 20's people! Either that or I'm just trying to make it through college.

I only have 2.5 days left at my internship and I have to say it was kind of disappointing. Maybe my expectations were too high but I am not really sure how much I've gained from it. There has been maybe a total of one full day of great information and experience, if even that. So that has put my winter as a bit of a downer. I could of been sleeping and lazy and hanging out with friends.

Oh well, hopefully I'll look back on it an be grateful for it.

I Hate Perler Beads!!!

Today was a rough day. My body aches. I did tons of deep cleaning today, all stooped over...  I remedied the situation by going home a little early and by getting into my newest onesie and watching movies while working on perler beading.

I HATE PERLER BEADS! They are so frustrating, difficult, and irritating. But somehow once you complete one it's like THAT WAS SO MUCH FUN! I guess I have a love-hate relationship with them. My  most recent creation was completed after two hours. I went to iron it and the son of a bitch fell apart! I rolled on the ground and died a little. It took me another hour to fix it.

Something fun I discovered. I guess something that I fondly remember from my childhood. On netflix I found the show Garfield and Friends!  I remember watching it with my dad on Saturday mornings. I don't know how old I was but I was young. They have a new Garfield show on TV. It's all computer animated and not funny. Now I'm only three minutes into this old show, so I don't know if it's actually funny yet. I'm just soaking in being a kid again I guess.

Happy Holidays

Well the holidays have been quite exciting if I do not say so myself. The power came on yesterday around one, making it to five days with out power. I like being in my home staying warm and cozy. Because being home with out power blows major chunks.

Perler Bead Nyan Cat

In order to survive many wonderful people opened their homes to us. They gave us electricity, food, water, warmth and even a bed. And the most important of all- THINGS TO DO IN THE LIGHT! My family spent most of our Sunday at a friends house and because of them I became obsessed with this stupid craft that is way too much fun. It's called Melty Beads! No, that's just what I call them. The actual title of the craft is Perler Beads. It took me a while to finally get the name correct. When I was googling for ideas I kept typing in Parler Beads, Pelerer beads, Parley beads...yeah

So Christmas Eve I came home to a powered, warm home and we still had not got a Christmas tree. Obviously time has run out so my dad and I went out in our backyard and searched for trees or parts of trees that had fallen down in the snow storm that caused the outages. As we searched in the snow we found a tree that was perfect. It was a little empty on the back side, but fuck it, it could go against a wall!

Since we didn't really want to drag all of our Christmas Decorations up my mom and I made paper chains to place on the tree. We also included paper clip chains and one ornament  which happened to be a Snowflake. Very appropriate for the winter of 2012! I had also made some perler bead designs to place on the tree including Pikachu and Nyan Cat who tops the tree!

Every Christmas Eve it is tradition in our family to get Pajamas. Since this Christmas was a major planning fail I was the only one who got some. But, it happened to be a Wiley Coyote Onzie. Pretty freaking sweet. And on Christmas Morning we skyped with the long lost brother as we opened our gifts.

Now it is nap time. Hopefully we will finish our Harry Potter marathon soon!

THE END OF THE WORLD!!

THE END OF THE WORLD HAS HAPPENED!!!!!

Why the leave of absence?! WHY HAVE YOU BEEN GONE!?! DID YOU DIE!?!?!

No, I did not die. But the world sure did end. As of Thursday at 2:27pm the power went out. As of Saturday at 7:30 pm we still have no power. I'm ready to live the rest of 2012 with power. So far it has been really cold and miserable.

We made hot coco from snow on the fire place and we roasted hot dogs. My parents and I all crowd around a tiny fire place that doesn't put off enough heat and we crowd around the candles that doesn't put off enough light. I officially played my gameboy color for like twelve hours. And I restarted my Pokemon Yellow. As of now my party includes. Raticate, Pikachu, Pigeotto, Charmeleon, Sandshrew...and something else. Obviously it was super important. That my friends has been what my life has consisted of for the last few days.

I'm went a little stir-crazy. Totally sick of my parents (Love you but trapped in a small room for too long sucks). So I called up a friend and BEGGED to come over to take a shower. So now I'm bumming electricity, heat, and technology. But I am warm, I am clean and I am cozy. I'm considering staying the night but I'm unsure. It is warm here...and there is power... At the same time I want to go home and sleep in my bed with my cat. It may be cold but it is home.

There might not be a blog tomorrow if the power is still out. But since the world ended I figure there will be no power ever!

Taking the Blame

I guess I'm not in a bloggin mood, I'm pretty pooped from today. I spent a lot of the day picking up someone else's mess. The birds got the wrong meat I had to re-weigh and replace everything, I also had to double and triple check to make sure all the diets were prepared. Which some were not done properly and I don't know it was just kind of a day where I felt like I took the blame for a lot of shit. There is this one old lady who I really am not fond of and she thinks I know NOTHING about anything. And looks at me like I'm just wanting to smack a bitch!

I did however get to take a Great Horned Owl and a Harris Hawk on a walk!

Anyways...

HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF BLOOD PRINCE!

My eyes slightly water every time. And by every time I mean all three times I've watched it. I forgot practically all of it except for the one part that I knew made me jump. I guess the thing that really gets me is just the struggle that Draco Malfoy goes through. You can just see the fear and uncertainty in his face...just sad. The next two movies I've only seen once so we will see how that goes!

Dumb Oregon Drivers

It was snowing most of the morning. Which means it was FREEZING at work. When I drove to work snow covered the road and I drove under the speed limit because I was paranoid about ice and dumb Oregonian Drivers. We do not know how to drive in the snow and ice! It's like- There's Ice...LETS SPEED UP!

Tonight I had dinner with my friend Jill who works at the place I intern and I am always glad to have her around. I talked to her about my disappointments mostly and she shared her thoughts so it made me feel a little better. She also gave me this advice:

HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX! 

Ok so maybe this wasn't Jill's advice but it was the feature film of the night. I probably will always forget these last few movies. Because lets be honest, if I were to pick a Harry Potter film I would start with the first one. Not just eenie meenie miney mo it. Out of order makes no sense. Well unless you watch Star Wars 4,5,6 & 1,2,3. But that was the order they were made in. Which hardly works for movies. Anyone ever see the prequel Dumb and Dumber: When Harry met Lloyd? No? I didn't think so. 

David Attenborough in Jurassic Park?

If you study science there is a very high chance you are very familiar with the name 

David Attenborough. 

If you are a movie watcher there is a very high chance you've seen Jurassic Park with 

Richard Attenborough

But did you know THEY ARE BROTHERS WHOA! Now I created this little scenario below, I hope that the David Attenborough watchers will at least snicker. I thought it was funny. 

For those of you who don't know David Attenborough appears in many Life Series videos informing people on science crap. He sometimes appears in very odd places and comes out of no where to make a statement.

Tonight the feature film was

HARRY POTTER AND THE GOBLET OF FIRE!

Well let me say the quotes stopped 100%. I even forgot about some scenes! Like the whole beginning. I also kept trying to imagine a nose on Voldemort so I could picture Ralph Fiennes. Who my mom says it's not pronounced Ralph but pronounced Rayph. I'm currently watching a snip-it from Inside the Actors Studio to find out if she is correct.  But I'm two minutes in and there has been no name...And the Mother is correct...Congrats on correct pronunciation on someone we will never meet. So if I do ever run into him I will make sure I say Rayph. Thank you for saving me the embarrassment. 

Cats + Laser Pointers

And the rain came down. All fucking night. It rains way to much in this state.

Today I purchased a laser pointer for my insanely bored cat. And I am very disappointed on how the cats react to it. It definitely gets their attention but not as much I as I want. 

I don't want to go back to work tomorrow. I just want to sleeeeeeeeeep. I like being warm and inside. It's kind of my thing. I like being cozy. And sleepy. And Warm!

Tonight we watched

HARRY POTTER AND THE PRISONER OF AZKABAN!

Once again I sang to the theme songs and danced around, quoting less than before because the higher up in the movies we go, the less I've seen them! My dad has actually been with us for all 3 films so far. (I think he actually is enjoying them. I myself would like to have Buckbeak. He would be an entirely new class! Avemammalia! I would love to own a hippogryph. It would blend my favorite animals together, birds and mammals. 

Tomorrow lets hope we get to the next Harry Potter. Then after Harry Potter we are going to start a new marathon. Lord of the Rings!

Harry Potter Marathon!

This started yesterday but it is best to bring it up now. 

HARRY POTTER MARATHON!

My mother has not seen all of the movies. 

We began yesterday with

 HARRY POTTER AND THE SORCERERS STONE!

I do believe I was quite annoying because even though I haven't seen some of these for years, I would instantly remember a quote and quote it. And not only would I quote it I would overly act out the quote. Or sing opera to the theme song. Yeah I'm annoying. 

Today we watched

HARRY POTTER AND THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS!

And again with the quotes. I forgot Richard Harris was still as my dad says "Mumbledork" in this movie. I guess I don't have much to say about these movies. Tomorrow is most likely the third movie. But who knows if it will actually happen!

Soo....yeahhh I don't really have much else to say except Neville Longbottom still looks like this

I can't wait for him to grow into his face and straighten his teeth. Soo Hawt. 

Animal Apocalypse

Finally! It's Friday! I'm so relieved. I'm gonna get a good night sleep and rest my aches and pains away.

I've had a thought the last few days. If animals realized we could possibly be more afraid of them then they are of us, we'd be screwed. Like fer seriously! People today are worried about the end of the world or Zombies. But I say if a Squirrel realizes it can gang up on you with it's squirrel buddies we could die at the hands of squirrels. Deer could beat the shit out of you and you would die of internal bleeding. Dogs, even if they are loyal could easily take people down. Birds...well the small ones could dive bomb you and the large ones could bite or sink their talons in you. Kind of a morbid thought but I'd like to think thought provoking.

I'm still feelin that extra estrogen. Can I somehow bottle it up and remove it? I don't want to get rid of all of it just the extra ones.

Throwback Thursday

I had another rough day. Well rough as in not what I want to do/disappointed. I feel like I'm just being crazy.  I just need to hang in there. Tomorrow is Friday and I'm THRILLED that the weekend of rest is almost here.  I ache, I'm stiff and I'm just cranky.

Negative Nancy is apparently here to write these blogs. Hopefully Positive Polly will join us soon. I'll keep checking her schedule, we all know that Polly is more enjoyable than Nancy. However Nancy can be sarcastically wonderful. In a terrible way of course.

Lets go back in time. I'm not quite sure the date but let me give you an example that may set the time frame. Gameboy Color. Or as a young lady seven years younger than me said "What is that brick?!" I remember the day I got my gameboy color. Now I'm not sure my Parents or Nathaniel would have the same story. Nathaniel had got one for some reason, he may of saved money he may of gotten it as a present but he got his Gameboy and Pokemon Blue. I was so jealous! I wanted to play the game so badly! As I remember less than a week later my parents gave me my see through purple gameboy color with Pokemon Red. Every now and then I stumble upon my purple gem and play games for hours. I remember wanting the newer gameboys, but I love my 'brick'. It's old school and fabulous! I mean It could be worse, I could have the original gameboy minus the color!

Extra Estrogen

I've been having a rough week. I think 78% of it may be some extra estrogen that is being directed towards my uterus. That makes this week 99% harder to deal with. I keep trying to tell myself its all in my uterus. That makes me sound with child... I'm going to eat brownie batter now.

I would like to bring up the shooting that occurred in Oregon yesterday. It is terribly sad that two people lost their lives for some assholes selfish way to go out by forming chaos. But in a crowded mall food court with open fire only three people were struck- that is just amazing. I've been to the Clackamas Mall. I actually really like that place. I've eaten food in that food court. I guess it is just strange that I can picture where it all happened in my mind. I'm glad that everything went so smoothly in mall security. A lot more people could of been hurt.

Sadly I feel like this was/is my dream

All My Friends Are Married and I'm Drunk

When the dog bite when the bee stings when I'm feeling sad I simply remember the things that I hate and then I want to fucking scream at people!

One of the major things I loathe may sound quite cynical of me. If I hear, if I read, if I even get the hint of another friend getting engaged, getting married or having babies I might melt like the Nazi's from Indiana Jones. The fact that people are settling down and reproducing. Or reproducing and settling down...Or reproducing and being completely irresponsible. Anyways, I feel like people are wasting their youth. Like what the hell are your twenties for?! Raising a baby?! pppsssshhhh! Whatever.


This website- All my friends are married and I'm drunk completely gets my point of view.

PPPPIIIIIIIIZZZZZZZAAAAAAAA

OH I WAS GOING TO START WRITING A BLOG BUT MOM CALLED 

"PIIIIIZZZZZAAAAAAA"

I AM SO HUNGRY AND EXCITING! OH GOLLY JEEPERS!

Just imagine if it was still that exciting to get pizza. Sometimes I wish I were still a kid with no responsibility.I feel super random right now. Like I need to cut my toe nails, I could really use some brownies, I'm 23 why do I still have problems with acne. Why is it so cold?!

And then I hit this moment in my day where I start nodding my head because I'm so exhausted from brushing splattered poop off of the wall. I live a glamorous life. I learned how to spell glamorous from Fergie. Fergie teaches how to spell kids words in songs. Glamorous, Delicious... however she seems to think Tasty is spelled with and e- Tastey

Shit just getting mo' random. (mo' is short for more- I'm super hip)

A Few of My Favorite Things

When the dog bites, when the bee stings, when I'm feeling sad I simply remember my favorite things and then I don't feel so bad. Because my opinions matter just as much as Oprah! Or maybe even more. I could give people cars...if I had the money and the resources. (A soul would help too)

• Warm sleepy kitty smell. You know that smell of a cat that has been sleeping and the heat from their body just smells so cozy. 
• The sound of a happy purring kitty (I'm not obsessed with cats I swear)
• Passing out and waking up to realize your great nap was only 15 minutes.

And that ends my list. Either I'm really hard to please, or coming up with my favorite things is way harder than I thought it would be. 

My cat is drooling on me. However she is drooling more then Pavlov's Dog! There is a puddle on my arm! Some how in this instant drooling looks cute. Is that weird?

My 3rd First Day

I started my first day as a Raptor intern. And it was a fantastic day. I got to see all of my old friends- people and animals. It was kind of an odd first day. I worked there my entire Senior Year of High School. I also interned there in the Summer of 2010.

On my technically 3rd first day I cut up some venison- which I haven't done in a couple years. Which means I got some blood speckles all over my jacket. I got to see my friend Brady! Remember him from My Play Date with a Cougar Cub? He is so big now! I couldn't believe it! He is also a sweety. Of course I couldn't have the same interaction with him. He's still a cub but he is most likely heavier than I am now.

I got to work on handing which was challenging but exciting. I still am new to it so I will get better with time. You actually have no idea how many thing you have to think about!

Also while I was there I identified the following birds (wild birds) : Hooded Merganser, Wood Duck, Mallard, Red-breasted Nuthatch, Dark-eyed Junco, American Crow, and the Common Raven.

My education is apparently getting me somewhere!

Dr. Sheldon Cooper for President

I saw this t-shirt and it really got me thinking. About useless stuff of course. Like what would Sheldon Cooper be like as President of the United States.

 Some Positives

• We'd be prepared for any natural or unnatural disaster known to mankind. No matter what there will be a plan.
• Everything will be so organized
• Obviously he will not be distracted by the opposite sex nor would there be any sex scandals...unless he actually had some

Some Negatives

• There will be oddly illegal things like whistling
• More people will get into trouble and end up getting three strikes and have to take the class. 

Some...not sure...

• We will most likely have a national holiday for Trains and famous Scientists. 
• His English will only be made sense by the incredibly smart of the world... or the Trekkies. 

My mother told me that some reader were upset with me because I've not been great about posting everyday. So for this blog I hope most of you keep up with Big Bang Theory otherwise you may not get the clear Sheldon-isms I've described. To fix this issue - watch the show. Its just that simple.

I start my new internship tomorrow! I'm going to be working with Birds of Prey! Very excited. However it's going to be on the chilly side since the barn is freaking freezing. It should be a really fun winter break. I like birds...I think. After that final I'm kind of sick of them but that may of been songbirds. To drop some knowledge on you I will be working with: Accipitridae, Pandionidae, Tytonidae, Strigidae, Cathartidae and Falconidae. Google will become your friend to figure out what exactly those are! ;)

Bottle Me Up Some Sass

I've decided only one final might be worse than three. Yes stress might be through the roof with multiple finals. I'm so bored of BIRDS! So so so so so tired of the subject. I like birds but I don't want scientific names I don't want to identify dead birds. I just don't want to! RAGE!

In my extensive procrastination I started a new show. Ugly Betty. I have a new favorite character. Marc St. James played by Michael Urie. The best gay character ever. He is Fabulous! He is so sassy! I LOVE IT! He has great chemistry with every single character in the show especially Vanessa Williams! I just want to bottle his character up in a jar so that every now and then I could open it and get some sassy remarks. Maybe I need to get a life...


As of right now there is T-3 hours til my first and only final and I just want to get it over with. I'm jut doing the final touches of studying. Which apparently includes blog writing. I don't know what to really expect with this final. The specimens are literally 100 years old. Like 1912 old. Like I don't want to touch them because they are older than my grandparents old. They smell and their colors are muted. For instance the Ruddy Duck we have in the collection has a black bill- their bills are supposed to be a pale blue. So in a way it almost seems useless to use this collection. That could be the 'I want to be done' speaking!

To Do: NOTHING

For some reason writing these blogs is like pulling teeth.

 I bet it's finals. I'm tired of birds and their scientific names. 

I'm just tired. Oh So tired. 

This is exactly what I want to have on my To-Do list.

Ass Kickin' Football!

Happy First of December! I started December with some alcoholic beverages. Maybe it was too much... Whatever, whats done is done!

Rachel & I went to the football game today and we kicked their asses! (Rachel and I did not kick the crap out of an entire football team, our college football team creamed the opposing football team in a football match- I hope that clears things up). It was fun! A friend of Rachel's gave us some super awesome tickets, we were in the 7th row by the 20 yard line. I could see faces underneath the football mask! It was cold and rainy but we stayed through the whole game. We won 77-3! Ass Kickin!

The entire day was not very productive. A slight hangover and a tid bit of nausea kept me away from the library. I'm going tomorrow I swear!
