I skip classes and so can you!

Okay, so I probably shouldn't advocate skipping classes and I'm sure my mom like most moms enjoys telling herself that I would never do such a thing but sometimes I do because I just have to. It's what college is all about right?

No, I know college is for learning and making friends and all that good stuff.  But college also gives you a little freedom, especially when you don't live at home.  I'm pretty sure that every semester of college so far I've taken at least one full out "sick" day and sometimes Kyle does too and usually it's a good time.  One year we went furniture shopping which sounds dumb but it really wasn't and last year we sat in bed literally all day and watched the full season of "Face-Off" on SyFy. I think I got up once to answer the door for the food we ordered it was the epitome of a lazy day.

This semester I haven't skipped any classes and that's probably because we're only a week and a half in.  Watch out for a post next week about how I've started skipping class.  But today in both of my classes so far my professors have chosen to point out that we don't have another "break" until Thanksgiving so that means that I will have class everyday until November 23.  That's 11 full weeks of classes folks.  Usually when I take my "sick" day it's unplanned but the prospect of 11 weeks of classes and the fact that I'm a super-senior is making it really hard for me to not plan one or two or ten.  This semester feels like it's going to last a really long time.  Maybe if I just shut up and enjoy my last two semesters it won't seem that way anymore and I'll be crying in May because college is over and I have to join the "real world".

Happy Wednesday!

Netflixing

I've recently gotten into the habit of looking at theBerry semi-religiously.  This isn't the first time this has happened and it probably isn't the last.  I have a nice habit of being somewhat internet free for awhile and then I go on a binge where I look at tons and tons and tons of photo galleries on the internet.  My favorite websites include:

theBerry

BuzzFeed

9gag

theChive

and sometimes Yahoo!

But my internet addiction is not why we are here today.  Today I'd like to talk about "Netflixing" a word I found by looking at a post on theBerry.

I need this.

Before today I was unaware that there was a word for binge watching on Netflix.  Now I'm more enlightened and I will admit that I am indeed a Netflixer.  I don't actually have a Netflix subscription but when I'm at my apartment in State College we use Kyle's parents subscription (they are saints). I don't use Netflix all that much but when I do I go hard.  It's usually the result of me being jealous about how Kyle has friends and I'm completely anti-social but that's another story.  

Anyhow, when I turn on Netflix you can count on me watching one movie and at least 10 episodes of a show.  One day I watched 2 seasons of Arrested Development in one sitting.  Netflix kindly reminded me multiple times that I should probably get up and do something instead of sitting on my couch and eating a whole bag of Doritos while wishing Jason Bateman was my boyfriend (sorry Kyle).

So I'd like to compile a list of TV shows I'd love to be Netflixing the crap out of right this second:

Arrested Development - Okay so I started this one but I never finished it

The Big Bang Theory - Kyle totally got me hooked on this show

Parks and Rec - I also started this one but should definitely go back and finish it. I love me some Aziz Ansari

The Office - Such a good show.  Also I wish I were Pam.

Orange is the New Black - This show looks so good.

Wilfred - Every time I catch an episode I laugh so I should probably watch every episode. Right?

Weeds - I've heard good things. I enjoyed the pilot.  I need to watch it.

Breaking Bad - See above.

Firefly - Nathan Fillion, will you marry me?

I'm sure there are more, I'm not really familiar with all that Netflix has to offer.  Also if any of these shows aren't offered please excuse me for my ignorance.

Happy Wednesday!

The Absentee

Yeah, yeah I know I've been absent for about a week now.  I don't know if I have any die hard fans that really care or even notice enough to miss me but it doesn't matter because some days I miss blogging.  Although it sucks when you don't have a lot to blog about.

The past week was pretty boring.  I didn't go anywhere of note or read any super inspiring books (I am reading "The Trial" by Kafka at the moment but I'm having a real hard time getting through it) or bake anything.  The breakdown of last week is as follows:

Monday

I babysat.  It wasn't very fun.  It felt like an eternity.

Tuesday

I think I watched Law and Order for 8 hours straight, did some homework and took my first shower in a couple days (I know, I'm gross).

Wednesday

More babysitting.  It was just as uneventful as Monday

Thursday

I honestly don't remember anything about this day except for being depressed at wings/The Eagles because I drank too much vodka.

Friday

I went to Kyle's.  I learned about the X-men and other comic book characters.  

Saturday

We ended up in State College because they found out about the cat.  We had to remove all of his stuff and now we have no more kitty at the apartment. Oh well.

Sunday

I slept for a long time and then did more nothing (I think).  Seriously, I remember as much about Sunday as I do about Thursday.  What is my life?

I'll be honest, I think we all deserve a lazy day or two but last week was just pathetic.  Maybe I should re-evaluate some things.  I guess the good news though is that this week will be busy because I plan on baking at least one thing and I'm trying to get as much school work done as possible since we're leaving for the beach on Saturday! YAYYY!

This was me all last week

Happy Tuesday!
