Do I think I can be the U.S. president?

HAHAHAHAHAHA no.
I would come in, intending to be a dictator who will have my statues placed everywhere and save the rainforest, and then realize that you can't really do that, and then succumb to the labyrinthian political system that I never want to get into ever. I would be the worst politician ever, because my morals would conflict with the entire system.

I missed two free writes?

Ugh.

OK I shall talk about the headband I'm wearing today. Last week, Ms. B measured all of our heads so that she could make us all headbands, which is the nicest thing ever, and it made me really happy that she would knit us these cute little headbands! Only the girls, of course. Mine is black and sparkles. I love it, and I've been wearing it a lot. My mom said I look like a psychic, but what does my mom know about what pseudo-scientific profession I aim to look like. Psh. What a nub.

Life without Twitter

...Will be the same for me as life with Twitter. I don't use it, so if it was gone, I would not notice at all. Now, if there was no Instagram, something I actually use, um, my life would probably be a lot more productive.

I think I missed a free write.

This weekend was pretty alright. I'm the Mardi Gras float princess for my church next week! That's exciting! Hmmm what else... Oh! Derrick and I are going on our 2-month anniversary next weekend at the Dallas Arboretum. Being cute, what else, psh. I'm really excited heehee. We're honestly perfect and adorable, and I'm really happy I was patient and hopeful enough for the perfect guy to come along, instead of settling for someone who isn't worth it. So thanks, life and fate, for letting me meet the male version of me :) Yay for things working out.

How have I changed since one year ago?

I would say that since last year, I am less awkward, less single and less of a non-adult, which, I mean, is something to be proud of, right? I have a lot more work and responsibilities, but I'm also a lot more relaxed and calm about stuff, but I still suck at being responsible... i.e. I haven't been to work in like 4 weeks, and I'm probably fired. Good gosh I have a lot of stuff besides that, too.

How do I handle rejection?

Badly and without emotion. I have a fear of failure and rejection, so I usually try not to take risks or put myself out there unless I have a high probability of success. This is bad, because I don't really give myself the chance to suck and get better at something, leaving a huge dearth of improvement within my character and life experience.
I need psychological help.

Where do I see myself in 20 years?

On the street, living under a bridge, drowning in my own tears. Literally, I'm going to fail life. Ugh.

If you could go anywhere today, where would it be and why?

I would go to the farthest corner of the rainforest, hide from society, and adapt to a possessionless lifestyle for the next 20 years. I will emerge as the new Thoreau, and people will provide me with the praise and earthly comforts that I deserve. PLEASE LET ME QUIT SCHOOL. I HATE IT SO MUCH.

What's my favorite day of the week?

I AM SO EXCITED FOR FRIDAY. OH MY GOD.
This is going to be the best Valentine's Day ever, and I know that for a fact, because IT HAS TO BE. (To answer the blog question, I really like lazy Saturday mornings, specifically, because Saturday nights consist of me regretting not doing anything productive that morning)
I am so flipping excited for this Friday. I didn't want to spend any money on my boyfriend, not because I hate him, but because I'm broke, counting in prom expenses.
SO I made him this super cute collage of all of our non-awkward pictures and framed it in a pink frame (I didn't have anything manlier. Whoops.), and I cut out a bunch of cheesy/quasi-insulting pickup lines, which is OK, because we have the same kind of humor that appreciates cheesy/quasi-insulting jokes. Here's my favorite one: You smell like garbage. Can I take you out? I literally laughed at that for ten minutes. A true comedian. Besides those, I turned our story into this fairy tale story thing where I'm a princess, he's the knight, and it's based on how we actually met. He also gets a CD with our songs on it and the same truffles that I got him on our first date.
This is like, stomach-churningly saccharine, I know, but bear with me.
I know what you're thinking, what do I get out of all of this? I know for sure that he's making restaurant reservations for Friday, and then some other big surprise that NO ONE WILL TELL ME.
That's going to be my Friday. I'm pretty stoked. Yayyyyy.

Best superbowl ad

My favorite ad for the Superbowl was the one for Oikos yogurt, because it had all of the Full House guys in it. But especially John Stamos. Uncle Jesse is the bomb.
