Okay, I lied. My intention was to finish my 19th Century Lit paper but I don’t think that’s gonna happen. I forgot that I had class today. But on the upside, I’ve finished my Orientation to Teaching requirements so at least that’s done with. I had to plan my essay anew after I read some articles. Not that I’m wrong, just that my argument is stronger now. So that’s at least good. I’m going to try to at least get a third of it done before I pass out. I think I can manage at least that.
On a more entertaining note, I discovered that listening to music makes everything about ten times more interesting.
For instance, my sister was driving me to school the other day and for whatever reason she had “It’s in His Kiss” on her ipod. Well, I just have one thing to say: too catchy not to sing along to! I imitated Cher (as I enjoy doing) and my sister took backup (in the voice of a slurring drunken baboon). That’s how I started my day. It was great.
Today while walking to school, I was listening to Pink. For about a third of the way I felt very ass kicky. But then the song changed and it was Beethoven’s Symphony Number 5 but done as a disco remix (from Saturday Night Fever). I downloaded it by mistake and now I just think it’s funny. Walking to that song made me feel like such a goober. It was too funny. I had a combination of Mystery Men and Family Guy running through my head and of course, I eventually fell into step with the music. I don’t know what I looked like, but I am curious.

After that, I got on the bus. Guess what song started to play. Holla Back Girl! I burst out laughing at several intervals. I was imagining Freud dancing. Just... such a wonderful visual. No one else can hear my music so I’m sure I looked pretty dumb. In true Lauren fashion, I was laughing my face off while sitting next to a pretty cute girl I never would have spoken to anyway. And yes, I was head bobbing and dancing along. I’m going to steal a quote from Amanda Bynes now in order to defend my behaviour: I’M A DORK! (It’s from Sydney White). On the topic of Amanda Bynes and to further prove my dorkiness, I have used the line “Do you like cheese?” to start conversations. Among my friends. I don’t recall if I’ve ever tried gouda.
The rest of my day was pretty music-less. On the way home I listened to Rachel Maddow. My serious expression probably scared the guy at Blockbuster but he wasn’t very friendly anyway. So pleh!! Deserves an extra exclamation mark for his crankiness.
Freud: Lauren, he does not read your blog, he does not know you.
Lauren: Oh he knows me. I rented the PIANIST! It’s also the first movie I rented with my new Blockbuster card! Are you proud of me? I was all over it.
Freud: Yes, your ability to pull a driver’s licence and credit card from your vallet, zhen state your phone number vas very impressive. And I’m sure he remembers you among ze dossens of ozer people he’ll be seeing tonight. It iss only Friday after all.
Lauren: I’m going to pretend you’re being sincere.
Night everyone! Happy Friday!
Lauren
