College eager children, to help you pass the time.

I know that there are quite a few anxious kids out there anxiously awaiting their college decisions, so I have compiled a random group of videos for ya'll to watch as a distraction in the meantime.

All of the following videos were posted by others on Facebook, so I am not taking credit for their discoveries - merely for redirecting it to you in a convenient manner.

Actually, I lied. Because this first video was found by me :P I'm including it because it will blow your mind!!!


This next video is provided courtesy of Susan,


This one was posted on Jon C Chen's wall by Amy Ho. Those Japanese are quite...clever?


Scott Shapses posted the following on Sue's wall and I don't know why, but I found it absolutely hilarious! Admit it, there are moments when you totally wish you could do that! Honestly though, I found it sort of impressive that he pulled that off. Note, I am not approving of his behavior, just acknowledging the skill involved. I especially liked the showdown at around 2:50.


The next is a video that I'm certain all students taking Euro will appreciate, as will many of us not quite as dedicated to the subject. Discovered by Steven, this video is both educational, extremely clever, and entertaining.


That's all for now because you know, watching videos on Youtube isn't the only thing I do...Anyhow, now that I've compiled these,

Made it into Georgetown!

At first I didn't want to write a blog about my acceptance because that seemed kind of bitchy and attention-seeking, but then I realized I don't care! I just got in! LOL Actually, this post is more to share a funny anecdote from today.


Right after school, I raced home to check the mail, and it hadn't arrived yet, so I had to find a way to distract myself. I texted Jaya to see if he needed a ride home. When he told me he was staying after to help out with decorations, I went back to school to check out the mock wedding.

I chilled out there for a while, but after about half an hour, I started getting antsy again, so I dragged Jaya out of the room and to my car. Then, I drove back home (perhaps speeding a little...jk) and raced to check the mailbox. Again, nothing.

I knew that the mailman was somewhere in the near vicinity, so I dragged Jaya on a chase through Fox Meadow to find the mailman. Luckily for us (mostly Jaya), we found the mail truck in the second street I searched. I proceeded to accost the mailman and coerced my letter!


I wanted to drive away in case I didn't get in (actually put the car into drive), but figured it would be rude to do that, so I put the car back into park. I opened the envelope, saw the green slip of paper, didn't even bother reading and ran out to tell the mailman. I would have hugged him had it not been so cold outside :P

Anyhow, that's all for now because life goes on, even if I
