still holding on...

so i lost the button to my pants about a month ago, it wasn't because the pants were too small for me, in fact they were a little too big. but since that day, i have been wearing these pants and holding them up with my belt. so far it's been going good, no major problems yet. I'm still waiting for that day when i'm running down the quad and my pants fall down.....i mean, like that's ever happened to me before.....

but i think my button-less pants represent my life on how i am trying to hold onto something that I am slowly losing my hold on as it slips through my fingers. I have no control of some things, like these pants, unless i can learn to sew on a new button....but moral of the pants is that I have to learn to move on and forget about those button-less things in my life and let them slip away (or off) and go find some new pants that have buttons


deep.

oh and i found this while googling images for buttons.


haha, i never thought i would live to see the day these were invented. no more XYZ jokes for young kids to torture their insecure friends with.

alright ASB LOCK-IN TONIGHT

peace out

out with the "old" and in with the "new"

i can't believe that there are people out there still complaining about the "new" facebook. seriously guys, you know who you are....i keep on having to see your status pop up complaining on how "new" facebook sucks, and getting invitations to groups on "how to change back to old facebook" with some new application. honestly, this "new" facebook is not so different from the 5 other old versions that have come and gone. Literally, seeing the amount of time one spends on facebook daily, you'll prob. get used to within the first few hours.



so quit bitchin.

here are the things i noticed about "new" facebook:

-can't check wall-to-wall count (bgebs, we will never find out how much we have now 5 years from now)

-everyone has a status saying how much they hate "new" facebook and want "old" facebook back....even though back in the day they were the same people complaining that "old" facebook sucked too....

-lost the ability to scroll down ppl's profiles for hours....ie. bumper stickers don't take up the whole page

-i love the new groups directed toward Mark Zuckerburg asking for him to return us to "old" facebook

-in about 6 months or so, a "new" facebook will pop again, leaving this current "new" facebook as the "old" one everybody is complaining to get back

-this "new" facebook is somewhat more convenient since you can see the wall right away, and not have to deal with the 40 other applications some ppl tend to have...including the 5 different walls some people have, even though they are all the same thing. one wall will suffice for me.

- this is just dumb: http://www.new.facebook.com/group.php?gid=27504362262

http://www.new.facebook.com/group.php?gid=38092477536
really now?

there's a petition now.

so my advice to all you guys that are complaining about facebook....go suck it up. you are still using it about 85% of your time online so why do you care. it hasn't stopped you from signing on.

that is all.

if only i could grow an afro...

so has anyone done this yet?

http://www.yearbookyourself.com/

this is way more fun than it should be, haha. mal and i spent a good hour doing this a couple of days ago. let's just say that i looked pretty hot in any decade, and mal, well, let's just be glad she wasn't raised in any of the other decades, haha. although, her style didn't really look different from year to year.

also, everyone's profile pic on facebook is turning into this, i was confused at first where all these pictures were coming from. good to know the source now.

-djbk

okay for landing?

okay, seriously clear blue....this is how you are going to market your product?

i mean, personally i am not a woman. but aside from that, from what i know about my knowledge about women, there is nothing they love more than having the international space station or the millennium falcon taking shelter in a warm docking station.



but yea, check this out and wait for the dramatic stream of urine as it ever so gracefully splashes on the giant floating space stick

ps. the NEW HEROES EPISODE WAS AMAZING. i suggest all of you watch it.

something for the road

watch this before you go out so you can have some back up discussion topics in case of any awkward silences:



either i am really amused by everything, or this is really that funny

enjoy.

IT'S GOAT CHEEEESE

so last night was pretty interesting. many things happened and saw a lot of people.

1) never eat a bagel off the sidewalk while waiting in line for brothers....people will judge you


2) apparently the goat cheese bagel does not look that appealing....i mean i don't remember much of what it looked like. but here are some things that people have said about it: "first trimester bagel"; "bagel on a period"; "disgusting shit bagel"; "abortion bagel"

aside from the rave reviews this bagel got from the brothers line, i can't help but say this bagel was amazingly delicious. and to think i was willing to share it and asked if the two girls behind me if they wanted a bite. they refused multiple times. their loss.

3) i ran into MOUNTAIN CAIT and grumpy bear. cait was in a ridiculous outfit...naturally. she looked like a yodeler/dorothy hybrid only drunk and sluttier. haha. jk cait, jk...i kid.

also, i proceeded to do the robot inside pita pit...to which one of gbear's friends asked, "is he doing the robot?" yes kid, i was in fact doing the robot. gotta always be ready for a spontaneous dance party.

4) i lost my place in line, and i was the next person that would've been sent in by the way. So in order to make up for lost time, i just cut the whole line, and went straight to the front. I then proceeded to join the random barn dance dressed party in the front. it was clearly obvious that this asian in his gray t-shirt was not part of the flannel wearing, cowboy hat crew. yet, i still managed to get into brothers in about 5 min.

5) i pretty much spilled my whole beer on davis progressively through our time at brothers. he just noticed this morning that his jeans were soaked...

6) made friends with girl at one-world, who i will designate as "pizza box girl." she and i clicked pretty well by trying to build a door stop with empty pizza boxes. apparently she was watching over an un-locked bike outside of one-world. the bike did not belong to her nor did it belong to anyone she knew. strange. but our short time together was abruptly ended when our respective friends teared us apart. someday, i hope to see her again. maybe at one-world. the place we fell in love....

this is what i assumed she looked like based on my memory

7) yea anyways, i then proceeded to eat some old pasta at big and paul's place. no idea how long or old that dried out pasta was sitting there for. then i remember singing along to "lollipop (remix)" in big's car as he drove us home....over and over and over and over...

8) and as every night should end....i passed out on the couch of 706 while blaring the sound on the movie "i am sam." a great movie to watch to reflect on a drunken night i think.

anyways, off to the graing now.

-big korea

upgraded.

special thanks to ktina for the new look.

and somehow i am still functioning with only 30 min of sleep....

woot.

this is my forte

so i'm pulling my first all-nighter of the semester.

which signifies the beginning of the new semester really, 'cause if anybody that knows me well knows that i am pretty good at functioning throughout the day without any sleep....well most of the day that is.

things that were witnessed at the graing:

1) real grainger party tonight.

2) tbell trip.

3) the new volcano taco is not what it is hyped to be...their special "lava" sauce is weaker than the fire sauce they have there.

4) they jipped us a chulupa. and gave us 3 mountain dews.

5) the new big bell box = not the best diet for an all-nighter...

6) i just figured out how to add friends to my bloglist...so if you have a blog and want me to post it on the side there let me know.

big's jokes of the night:

"that's your blood"
"POOPER SCOOOPER"
"wait........STORED"
"say honest to god that you don't do each other..."

so overall, it's been a pretty productive night. now just few more hours to go to cram all this chem in.

-big korea

reply all

so if anyone is in starcourse you probably got an email from me.

and to think that i used to make fun of all the kids that accidently replied to the whole groups.....i am now that person, sad.

anyways, seeing how everybody got the email, clair and kristina should be in my group now, haha.

here is a video to leave you with so that you forget about my embarrassing email.



this shit is hilarious. if you haven't seen the first one, i suggest you do it now 'cause i know you have nothing better to do since you are reading this blog.

"Mistaken For Strangers" blog debut

so here's the film that marc, sarah, and i made last semester for the Apple Monumental Film Festival. Sadly we didn't place anywhere, which i still think was a scam. seriously, those weren't legit judges.....how would the manager to the apple store be a legit judge.

anyways, here's the film:

enjoy:



oh and special thanks to all my students that helped make the classroom scene possible.

nutritiously delicious

so does anybody remember go-gurts when they first came out? they had those awesome, badass commericials where the kids would be skateboarding, yet at the same time sipping on some calcium-rich yogurt.....EXTREME.

but yea, i just thought of it randomly. it may be due to the fact that i am starving at the moment. apparently, they still sell these things....so next time i go food shopping they are going on my list....MARK IT. (that one was mine big egypt, so suck on it)














-could yogurt get any more appealing...and this knock off version of gogurt fails in every aspect. not only does it look messy, you have to use 2 hands to squeeze it. c'mon, how do you expect me to do a frontside 5-0 stall into a nose grab when i have to use two hands to eat my yogurt at the same time. fail indeed.

























-that's right kid. go-gurts are number one.















-3D GOGURT IS INSANE. who doesn't want to be visually tricked into thinking gogurt is splooging on their face when in reality it is actually happening. now that's some legit 3D glasses.

through the eyes of an asian...

this is what i saw today:

1) asian girl WITH an umbrella standing in the bus hut waiting for the bus to come....while there were many, like me, who lacked water protection. she was hogging everything, seriously asian girl? seriously? and you wonder why people complain about us sometimes

2) kid in my discussion class today laughing and chuckling at our TA every time he spoke because he had a foreign accent. seriously dude, you are in college now, and at u of i of all places which is filled with many non-english speaking kids. either you are from the south and have never came in contact with anything other than a farmers tan, shirtless white dude who barely knows english themselves. so i know whenever he couldn't pronounce "appreciate" or when he said "caught" it sounded like "cock" it's hilarious and all (the last one is funny i guess, haha) but lay off of him dude, unless you think you can go teach the class.

3) over sized umbrellas. seriously unnecessary. when you're umbrella can fit a whole midget family underneath it, you are obviously overcompensating for something.


4) teacher-grandma-jean skirt at murphys the other night. okay, lady, i don't know if you were really an elderly, but c'mon....you were wearing a button jean skirt that came up to your chest. You also had on your stylish hipster, flannel shirt with your black rimmed glasses. also, watching you dance in that wasn't the most exciting thing either. ps. you stepped on jaclyn's foot and she was about to beat some ass. way to go.

5) amazing cookies that our neighbors baked for us. seriously, you girls are amazing. even though i forgot your name and you remember mine somehow. way to be selfish like that btw...but really, cookies are awesome and anytime you need to transport your television somewhere, the greek and the asian will be there. also, everytime i run into you in the hallways, i feel bad i don't know your name, so during our conversations i try to think of ways i don't have to refer to you by name.

6) final fantasy 9. yes, i said it. the game is seriously underrated. i know a lot of gamers out there are saying that it was one of the worst ones to come out of the series. but honestly, i think its enjoyable, complex, and just straight-out kickass. the characters are developed well, it has a very simple interface, and the battles actually involve some sort of strategy. i mean i know there are better final fantasy games out there, but don't hate on this one just because you don't think its up to par with the later ones that were released. okay, i don't know how much more nerdy i could sound now, sooooo i should probably change topics right about now. oh and kenny is playing the game right now as we speak....he's at level 48 with freya and it's still only disc 1

this guy knows what i'm talking about

7) hurricanes. c'mon mother nature, if you are going to rain, why can't you keep it at moderation that we can handle. we get that you are pissed at us for destroying this world, and i should know since i did make that awesome movie on recycling....right guys....but yea, i completely agree with you here and that there are a lot of dumb people out there, but don't punish those that actually care. that is all.

8) chem 360. this class does not really have use of the professor. she may have lectures and teach us the material, but she does not incorporate what we learned in class to the homework that is usually assigned to us. although i do have to give her some credit because the last homework was not as bad as the previous ones. that still doesn't change the fact that her test will most likely blow.


9) sorority recruitment. i love how you all have the same looking umbrellas ladies. i mean, you all looked very lovely today and i'm sure you all are pissing your pants about which house you are going to get into. the day is looming ahead which will decided the fate of your whole collegiate career. many of you will be ecstatic about the house you end up in and create countless memories at bomb night at co's or classying it out at station. sorry for those that don't get into my favorite house, the ADPi's. they have a special spot in my heart. shout out to sabs, mal and all my other sisters, haha. but yea, nice umbrellas. keep up the good work.

10) joke-tarts. amazing as usual.

that's it for now, since i have nothing more i can think of that i saw.

enjoy and stay out of the hurricane.

these kids are cool

and people are complaining about not having enough role models these days

and i love the cocky, open-arms walk and the slow-mo in the end

there are many more videos online of the same and some with even cooler soundtracks to them:



i don't know which is cooler so i can invite them to all my parties

baby what is your call number, so i can check you out?

oh yea, library themed pick-up lines always work.

soooo case race is tonight.

i expect all of the grainger kidlets to be there. but seeing as how my team has won the last 3 case races.....i don't expect much of a challenge whoever is on my team.

oh and bk made a huge rubber band ball.

we are going to make an extreme rubber band bouncy ball video that will be very similar to that extreme beer pong shots video

awake.

thus ends this terrible declining week.

i apologize to everybody that my first post in a week has to be a pretty emo one...but yea, i can't wait for tomorrow, 2pm, when this week will officially be over.

seriously though, it annoys me when people get things they do not deserve.

hopefully, i'll have a new joke-tart for you all tomorrow, when i am possibly in a better mood.
