  • Pros and Cons of Having an end-of-June birthday

    by funmi June 13, 2007
    Pros
    • It's summertime!
    • You can probably go see your favorite IT band in concert as a gift
    • The only shivers you will get all day will be from other questionable things, not 30 degree cold weather
    • No homework, school's out!
    • You feel the effects of the (finally legal) alcohol quicker, because of the hot weather
    • It's not so hot that you're sweating bullets, unless you need to go see a doctor...
    • You're a summer baby
    Cons
    • You're not in school, so no presents from your school friends, even though you got them presents during the year... those bastards!
    • Reminding friends that, no, you're not kidding, your birthday was two days ago.
    • Reminding friends that your birthday is tomorrow
    • Reassuring them that you don't need a present from them, it's okay
    • Even when you throw a party or someone does it for you, you're in college and all your friends are not in the same place
    • What you do on the anniversary of the day of your birth is probably what you did last week and will do every week until the end of summer (i.e. drive around, drink, sit on the beach, drink, go to the movies, borrow movies, smoke hookah, maybe a club)
    • Even if you were able to celebrate a half-birthday in school (because you have secretly longed to have your school friends give you presents), it would fall during the winter break
    • Quater-birthdays sound tacky
    • Your significant other, who lives in another state, is probably cheating on you
    • All the cool gadgets and sales come in December, when they expect people to be buying Christmas presents.
    • Your birth stone is a pearl (unimaginative, if you ask me) and you're a cancer (when has that ever been a good thing?)

  • Why do we listen to our friends' over-the-top shit?

    by funmi June 13, 2007

    I'm not saying it's not good to lend an ear, but sometimes I get tired of listening to the same shit OVER and OVER again.  Bitch, that's what you said last time... fine, repeat it again... I'll just pretend I'm listening... again!

    And it wouldn't be so bad if they would actually listen to what you had to say.  You're having a problem with your boyfriend? Talk to him! Kick his ass to the curb! Fuck his brother! Just stop whining about it, cuz you obviously want to do it (and don't worry bout cheating cuz i still maintain that if you constantly think of fucking his brother, you might as well have done it.  cheater!)

    The other thing I hate is when friends ask what they should do, right after you've told them.  Uhm... I don't know.  I mean, I did, and I thought I just told you, but apparently you don't process the words that come out of the little hole at the top of your cellphone.

    Sometimes I think I should be a certified shrink.  That way at least I would get paid for what I do.  I have a severe case of PMS: Putting up with (wo)Men's Shit

  • What is Deer to See?

    by funmi June 13, 2007

    sooooo I spent like TWO hours at the movie rental place today (Hollywood Video, woot woot). and that's a big deal cuz i usu spend like an hour and a half and then i'm done. but this time, even with the help of my friends Em and Marc I couldn't see one I liked or haven't seen!!!!

    What with freaking BC movie channel (thank you God for giving us that!) and airplane movies (I had already seen 'Happy Feet'), there is like NOTHING LEFT FOR ME TO WATCH!

    i can't really watch stupid romo movies anymore, they are wayyyy toooo lame. I walked past "Music and Lyrics" in disgust. That's as good as seeing "Catch and Release," the obscure movie by Jennifer Garner, you know, the has-been who married that guy from "Voyage of the Mimi" and had a kid of whom i don't even know the name. And I know the names of even B-list kids (okay maybe not since I don't know Anna Nicole's baby's name... is she B-list???...)

    anyways, i pondered watching that Mandy Moore movie, but she doesn't seem like a particularly strong actress... hmm...

    i settled with DeJaVu, upon special request (more like my friends were getting sick and tired of listening to me whine...). and then ofcourse i had to get a movie my lil sis and I could watch so I got the latest Bring It On (it was AIGHT... wayyy too much cursing for an 11 yr old tho... i mean the shits and bitches and middle fingers were everywhere! and they talked about SEXXX!!! i almost covered my sis's ears, or beter yet, stopped the whole thing midway... she can't know about that stuff yet!)

    we'll see how DeJaVu goes though... i'm not really a big DWash fan, but hey, let's give the man a chance....

    okay, i'm done ranting.

    p.s. i saw Shrek the Third the other day (again with the sis). IT'S FUCKING HILARIOUS!!! can't wait for pirates!
