Really Random Things

The things in this post are completely unrelated and all not important enough to take up a whole post, but important enough for me to complain talk to you about. So I figured that “Really Random Things” (note the capitalization) would be a catch-all title. AND IT’S SO CREATIVE TOO! *sarcasm.* I know I should probably come up with a nice catchy title, but I don’t feel like it.

• Formspring Questions – Okay, I caved. I like how I did a post on how I don’t take part in social networking sites, and then I sign up for one. Typical. So, Formspring. The thing is, it’s really pointless. For me, anyway. Because everyone “gets themselves out there” by posting their Formspring on their Facebook status like: OMG formspring.me/xxxxx and then everyone’s like YAY LETS CLOG UP THEIR FORMSPRING WITH DUMB QUESTIONS! Since I don’t have a Facebook, no one knows I have a formspring…so yeah…I guess it’s pretty pointless. I didn’t really put much thought behind my Formspring, I just felt like being spontaneous and cool.
• Photography - I’ve gained way more appreciation for photography of all types. I used to be like, “Wow, a flower. BIG FREAKIN DEAL.” But now, I understand the artistry behind it: the shading and lighting and angles and all that crap. So when I see a beautiful, professional picture I’m like, “Wow, a flower. I WANNA DO THAT!” This is a skill that I really want to have, but I’m just never going to acquire. I can’t even take a picture with like…a Polaroid. Fail.
• Weight-Loss Programs – Probably the stupidest, most waste-of-TV-satellite-space commercials I have ever seen. NO YOU DID NOT LOSE 50 POUNDS ON JENNY CRAIG BY EATING STEAK AND ICE CREAM! The skinny women who were “supposedly” whales before are all annoying and tanned and liposuction-ed and whatnot and are supporting these dumb programs that don’t even work. It doesn’t matter that the food gets delivered “right to your door” or whatever. No one can eat sundaes and lose weight. It just doesn’t happen.
• The Mall – I hate the mall. It’s pretty much a vast expansion of crappy stores with a bunch of annoying teenagers who think they’re SO COOL because they can walk around the mall in their tight clothes and buy crap and be loud and annoying and like throw stuff from the upper levels and the people working there are all peppy and like HEY BUY MY JUNK and it’s just claustrophobic and obnoxious and I’m all like “Kay, uh, don’t really wanna be here” so yeah…EW. ANTI-MALL.
• Mass Text Messages - I was bored today in Study Hall so I was like, “I’m going to send out a text message to random people saying HI !! and being annoying!” And, I don’t really know whether it was because I was dying of boredom or because I’m easily amused, but it was actually like REALLY FUN. I sent it out to 9 people and was like OOH LET’S SEE HOW MANY RESPOND! It was kind of embarrassing because I was just staring at my phone for the remaining 20 minutes freaking out whenever it buzzed but it passed the time. And 6 of the 9 responded, JUST FYI. So that made me happy. I recommend it when you are bored beyond belief and you have no other form of amusement.

So there’s my list of Really Random Things. There are probably more, but I am supposed to be doing some math thing and it’s 6:30 and I like to have my homework done early because I am a nerd so I’m kind of freaking out right now. Anyway, I need to end this post before I start rambling on for another 18 paragraphs.
