anywho,

I'm in the middle of uploading, ohp finished. Uhm, ...pictures to facebook from Christmas. They're the usual family-photos. As far as presents go, I made out really well for my London trip. I got everything from toiletries to a siqq Upper Playground umbrella, to shoes, to a Cashmere scarf from my mom's boss, to a book from Alex Pardee. I had a ton of fun with my family... learned how to shotgun a beer, sang a sloppy rendition of "Bartender" using the "I am T-Pain" iPhone app. funfunfunf. So satisfying considering how unhappy I was with how un-Christmasy I was feeling.

Work today though, was a different story becaused it succckkkkedddd. as always.

okay, this is an unfinished entry. oh well. submit.

Merry Christmas!!

Oh goodness, it's been a while. Finished the semester with an A in criminology and a B in Social Psychology. Don't know about the rest, but it doesn't even matter because I got a B in Social Psych!! Big deal I tell you! I got a C on each of the exams, so I was doomed for a C in the class. But alas, I actually sat myself down and studied and YEE!! a B! Definitely patting myself on the back since that class was teh boring.

So it's Christmas! (not in CA, yeah, but it NY and I totally support the right coast :) ). I had work earlier and it suckkkedd as always. Good thing I'll be out of that hell hole on the 7th of January.

Coming soon are my top-whatever lists of 2009. I'm thinking top movies, top moments, worst movies, worst moments, and top things I'mma do in 2010!

I'm watching E! News right now and tear! Brittany Murphy :(

I'll start blogging again since I'll be going away and people are interested as to what I'll be up to in Lundunn! As of now, I'm pretty excited about London. I'm holding back all the nervousness and anxietyish feelings and replacing them with hate for work and Walnut Creek. haha Defintely the better tactic, no?

Oh yeah, my Dad's here with the doggie, Sophia. They make me miss New York like crazy. :(
Christmas time is my favorite time of the year and I feel like I've done nothing Christmas-like at all. Everything's been going by so fast that now it's already Christmas and I barely got to experience Christmas at Target. haha But in all seriousness, maybe it's just me and I'm getting old, but where did the Christmas spirit go? Walnut Creek sucks. Okay fine, Walnut Creek inside Starbucks North Main and Duncan sucks... since that's really all where I've been this whole season. The other day I had a crazy breakdown. Maybe and probably PMS, but I seriouslly would have given anything to go the middle of a Target and scream, stamp my feet, cry, and throw a crazy tantrum--ripping random articles of clothing off, just like a baby. It was all bad. But then I woke up fine the next day since the day after that, I handed in my two weeks notice!! YES. A wonderful feeling, btw. I hope all of you are able to experience the feeling that is sticking it to the man.

ahhh, they're going through fads of 2009 and cupcakes is one. oh how I'd kill for one right now. eek.

On that note, goodnight, til tomorrow. Fo real Christmasness.

deuces.

Biggest Let-Down of 2009

Today, Tonight, I was supposed to be seeing the band, NURSES, at Bottom of the Hill. After I purchased my tickets online earlier today, I noticed that Nurses had been CANCELED for tonight's show.

WTF!!!

:( Seems as though something bug has happened/is happening between Nurses and Sargent House. So, as sad as I am, I can't be completely. Instead, I'm at home, sick.

I guess some things work out for the better.





Tomorrow:

THIS
IS
IT
!!!

yee.

tehe, BIKE CHECK!

Finally, in lieu of me being sick, I had time to do my bike check. Pictures will come later, but you can see my bike on Affinity's site. I bought my bike this summer in Brooklyn from Affinity and had it shipped to me here :) I LOVE it dearly. The guys over there worked really hard on it and even took it to this year's Interbike in Las Vegas. SO! If you Google Interbike & Affinity, you'll most likely find some pictures of my bike. Sweet!

Here's a video from Interbike, I forget where, but you see my bike eventually for like a second haha:

Fall Break

This "break" from school is lame. It promotes procrastination, as I have yet to get something accomplished.
I got my money hacked in to. Lame.
The rain has started. Lame.
Homework unfinished. Lame.

On a less-lame note, sister found the wedding dress. Actually, in terms of Miller, she found The dress with a capital T. It's cute, suits her, and everyone will not expect it but love it. I hope she chooses the current favorite bridesmaids dress, because I look hawt. haha And, I'd definitely wear it again.

Finally got my brake put onto my bike, so I can ride it more easily. Especially going downhill, my legs feel safer pedaling faster. I promise to post my bike check as soon as I write my Miller paper. And take my Social Psych exam. :)

See, this procrastination is bad. Probably three times today, I say at my computer with all of my notes, opened the document, and started to write the paper. I have my headings and my title. I swear, this class is the worst class I have this semester. I friggin' hate Theology for one. Actually, in true Kiersten terms, the class goes beyond me. Which really means, I just don't give a sheezyy, and on top of that Miller is a beezyy, so why even bother? gah, angryface.

So the one person that will forever be a thorn in my side, has convinced me to pay off my credit cards. Watching my savings go down like that all at once could seriously make me cry. Probably more than any given movie does. Hah, I'm such a sap. But yeah, imma pay them off, and them bank every paycheck that comes in. Yeah yeah, and in the end I'll save more. Thanks Mr. Bradshaw for teahcing me that in econ. Man, all of this male teachers that have sucked throughout my education. Yet, I still object to the idea of female teachers, or female authority figures in general. It just shouldn't be, because women are vaginas. Seriously.

Look at all this anger. Where does it come from? haha that reminds me of Saturday (?). I was being super nice. It was bothering me, I was being so nice. I found myself actually engaging in conversations, complimenting people, laughing & smiling.... until I caught myself, and said to Meghan, "Wait, am I actually being a decent human being right now?" haha I then had myself a great laugh after that thought. I'm always and will forever be a negative nancy, who sees the bad in people. But see, what people forget, is that with this outlook, I'm really only waiting for people to give my reason to actually like them. Which, in my opinion is the better way. Because in reverse, if you always initially like people, you'll only disappoint yourself with how lame they really are but letting you down and giving you more reason for you to not like them.. no? And the way I do it, is that eventually, I'm see the real good in people, after all of the negativity I give them to begin with. Kay, yeah it's 1:40am, and I have this same exact conversation all the time, so.... I really know what I'm talking about, but I'm sure you're like, Say what?? aha whatevs.

I guess on that note, I'll go to sleep. Going into the city tomorrow. And it'll be raining. Wait, I'm going into the rain? :( Man, must be a big deal then. haha

war out.

-kb2.

hahaha ok, i've been digging around my computer for some retarted pictures of me and here's what i found:








okay, this could go on for days. but dizzaayyyumm, i'm hawwtt.. aha
more later.

PS. here is probably the ONLY picture I have/will ever have of my two best friends in the entire world: (Me, Zachary--who moved to NY, jerk, and Kyle) <33
aha, look at my hair & my awesome blue cup of water I am so lovingly holding for the dee runk birthday boy in my lap, Zachary the Star Wars nerd, I mean seriously, shirt & two posters coughloser, and Kyle, throwin' up the deuces & his Norma Jean shirt. We're wayyy too cool for eachother.
:)

3:16am

As usual, I've woken up on the couch to the TV still on, Arex gone, my cat meowing...
Probably time for me to actually go to bed, no?
I feel bad about peacing out so early on that last post, sooo I'll clarify why,
When I was writing that last one oh so many days ago, I was in the computer lab, chillin' writing, etc. I glanced up to see who was coming in the door (natural human behavior, people) and this guy says to me, "Oh, so you're gonna stare and not even say hi?" Awkwardly and stupidly of me, I laugh and say, "Oh what's up..." Of course, he sits down next to me as if there's no other computer in the room. Then he's quiet and I'm writing my post. Out of nowhere, he asked me what he should write about. This was lame though because he was totally the type of person that asks for input but doesn't really care for what you have to say, so whatever you say they decide on what they were originally thinking anyways... the worst kind of douce bagness I think. Anyways, so the conversations went on like that, eventually he wanted me to help him and the drama team out with something or other in the quad the next day, asked me for my number since my phone was sitting infront of me and insisted he text me to make sure I didn't give him a fake number. Of course, Kiersten being the doofus she is, gave him her number to shut him up, said she'd try to make it to this whatever, rudely ended her blog post and bizounced outta there.

So there. That's why my last post sucked. And now I feel better and go to sleep :)

I rewarded myself with Kidrobot today haha. I bought Da Sturm to go with Da Fighter. My mantel is a hot mess right now though with all my little vinyl investments cluttering it.

No school Monday or Tuesday, holla.

Goodnight, war out.

PS. I got my bike finally. Pictures later, but you can see it here. Go to store and Lo-Pro. YES, the purple bike is MINE. As in the same bike at my house. yee


EMAROSA, baby!
