I smell vinegar.

I've been working non-stop on a history project for my Linguistics class. I'm learning some interesting things, such as:

"The Great Vowel Shift". Early Modern English began a transformation of vowel sounds. Observe:

Mouse would have sounded like "moose" because the "ou" sounded like "oo".


















Thats about all for my language class... I have a few more interesting things to share.I'm going to the beach for Spring Break, and I got myself an itsy bitsy teeny weeny yellow polka dot bikini. And I am ever so excited to wear it. I ordered it from Vickie's today, and it should be here no later than Thursday. That is the correct top and bottom, but the bottom should be yellow polka dots instead of stripes. I'm excited. :)














Its adorable.
I just feel so bad for that poor girl, I'm afraid I'm going to look a lot better in it than she does. I hate to brag. My ivory white skin, flat chest, and perfectly rounded luv handles will add a nice touch.

I think I'm pooped. Its almost midnight. I need to go to sleep.

Goodnight yall.

Found some quotes I'd like to share:

Solamen miseris socios habbuisse doloris. - Misery Loves Company (Latin)

In my contact with people I find that, as a general rule, it is only the little, narrow people who live for themselves, who never read good books, who do not travel, who never open up their souls in a way to permit them to come into contact with other souls--with the great outside world.
- Booker T. Washington

The sky looks ever so deep when you lay on your back in the moonshine. -Huck
Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn

You know that place halfway between awake and asleep? That place where you still remember dreaming? That's where I'll always love you. -Tinkerbell
Julia Roberts in Hook

When God says "no", there must be a greater "yes". -unknown

And how can I stand here and not be moved by You? Could You tell me, how could it be any better than this? -"Everything" by Lifehouse

I'm so hungry I could eat the north end off of a southbound skunk. -unknown

Allrighty, last time I promised some animal stories. I'll just start with a list of all of the animals that have bitten me, and if I feel that any one particular animal needs explanation, I'll stop and explain.
  • Cat
  • Dog
  • Hamster - (my fingers and the palm of my hand) I probably had salt on my hands, and Andi's hamster was just a jerk.
  • Mouse - (on the nose) I was a tot, and I held the mouse up to my nose to cuddle with it.
  • Gerbil - (callus on my finger) once again, salt or something. when he bit down, he couldn't get his teeth out of my callus. So he was stuck and I flung him across the room.
  • Turtle - (knuckle on pointer finger) it was a snappin' turtle.
  • Snake - (thumb) trying to see how many I could catch in a row
  • Goat? I'm not sure.
  • Duck - (the butt) My neighbor had ducks. Apparently I made Donald mad.
  • Robin - I attempted to reach into her nest and she pecked at me... not really bitten.
  • Rabbit - she was just a freaking vampire bunny. she bit through the sleeve of my hoodie and had there not been material there she would have taken a huge chunk out of my arm. I was just left with a bruise the size of a quarter-dollar on my arm for over a week.
  • Fish - I swim with fish, they bite occasionally.
I'm exhausted for the evening. Next time I'll share the stories of my animal killing sprees.

That's all for this evening. I think I'll close with this:

Good night everyone.

I'm going to be famous someday, so I'm going to just give a little background in case someone who doesn't know me reads this:

I'm 20, sophomore at Glenville State College, English Ed. major, I am a devoted Christian, I play the acoustic guitar-I have 3, I drive a five speed '98 plymouth acr neon, I have a mommy a daddy a sister and a brother, I live in the woods, I am a lot of fun.

So here's whats been going on in my life lately.

My hips have been going out. No, not on dates... I sure wish they would. My hips keep coming out of place. At first it was just the left, now it is accompanied by the right. At least they're doing it together as a team. I'll go to the doctor shortly to get this mess straightened out.

I love living in the dorms. Really. Pickens can be a hoot if you just give a boring evening time to develop. Before ya know it, you think you aren't in Glenville! I have a lot of favorite things about Pickens Hall. I will start with the floor. I've been warned on many an occasion not to eat food that I've dropped onto the floor. They said I'll get AIDS. I doubt it, the worst that can happen is that I'll develop a bad rash. Another thing I love about PH is the bathrooms! (Get ready kids, I have pictures for this one) My almost favorite thing in the world is going into the bathroom and seeing a giant turd in the toilet. Yes! I was waiting for it. Here's another favorite thing I have to look forward to:You guessed it kids! Its a used pad on the roll of toilet paper! Wow-geezy-oh-my... I can barely contain my excitement. At least this one was rolled up. I have other sarcastic favorite things about PH, but I'll save them for later. Right now, I'd like to talk about some actual favorite things about Pickens:

I enjoy living in the hall because of my awesome neighbors. They make it worth while. I enjoy living in a co-ed dorm because I can have boys in my room and my mother doesn't have a heat flash. I just recently hosted a party in my room actually. I enjoyed it, particularly due to certain company ;) Staying up late is kinda cool. Also, I'm doing that thing I swore I'd never do... the "p" word. Pro..procrr.... procrasst... I can't say it. I realized I'm not going to get a 4.0 this semester, so I might as well actually try to have fun this time :) I also enjoy living close enough to my classes that I don't have to get up more than 30 minutes before class. I like getting up and putting sweats on and brushing my teeth and running out the door. I consider it a challenge.

Well, I do believe I've written enough for one evening. Next time I'll tell you about all of the animals that have bitten me. Apparantly, those are good stories. I'll also tell you about all of the animals that I've killed. I just want to clarify right now--I didn't do it on purpose. I might post something of significance. I don't know. We'll see.

Until next time,
