Random Thoughts Part X

1. So I am sitting in class listening to the professor blabber on about the same topic. I put down my pen for a while until he's done making his same point. Finally he moves on to the next topic, and I reach for my pen to take notes. It's not there. I search all over the table, below the table, myself...nothing. I take out another pen and begin to take notes, until I realize the person next to me is using my pen. Their pen had run out of ink, so they just thought to grab mine. I will end the story here because all the rest will be is a series of cuss words, but seriously who does that?

2. I am in the middle of a movie. I get a call, and screen it because I cannot pick up at the time. One minute later, the same person calls again. If I did not answer the first time, why in the world would I consider to answer the second time? I really should consider writing my Ph.D. in phone etiquette. There is one exception to this rule. You call and get no answer, and then you realize you want to leave a voicemail. This is the only acceptable reason to call twice.

3. I went to lunch with a friend the other day. She started talking about how she and her friend Rachel went to Six Flags the other day. Ok, hold up. You mean the Rachel that I went to high school and middle school with? The Rachel that used to be in every other one of my classes? The Rachel that used to hang out with us? Why in the world do you need to say my friend. I know perfectly well who you are speaking about. This is rubbish.

4. I really hate when you are telling someone about something that happened, and the first thing that they say is "Really?!". No, I just made up that I got an A on my test, or that my car broke down, or that Fight Club is on TV. Get with it people.

5. I love clothes right out of the dryer. In fact, I have made it my mission to wait for the clothes to get right out of the dryer and then put them on. I just find that my days are so much more fulfilling.

6. I cannot stand apples. I also hate people that eat apples in front of me. I have a horrible thing with sounds, and I cannot take the crunching of an apple. It literally drives me insane, and I have to leave the location because I will scream. I mean its not that the taste is bad, but there is no need for apples to be that crunchy. It just is not right.

7. Another story about people failing at their lives. I was in class when the girl next to me straight up burps on my face. There was no excuse me, no covering of her mouth, instead I get a great big whiff of that chicken and beans she had for dinner. Then she had the audacity to go back to writing notes without any regard for the situation she placed me in. She was just doing too much...

  4. DISLIKE commentary on phone ettiquete (sp?).

    -I only call twice/multiple times if warrant is there, but it IS acceptable to call when you NEED to get ahold of someone - late for a meeting, asleep, etc. In this case, i'll call a million times if it means i'll get an answer on one - multiple voicemails are acceptable also.

    :D

  5. 2. Okay so this is kind of a tough topic to take a stance on for me. I get pissed whenever ppl keep calling me and i'm purposely ignoring them or can't take the call, but sometimes i'll end up calling someone like 3 times in a row just to get a hold of them. example: hey nick i'm coming over, be there in 5. (5 minutes later) call. no answer. call 3 more times. still no answer. sit outside for a half hour, then go home muttering explitives.

    4. really? haha i'm sorry i always say that just because i can never think of what to say back. its a problem, i hate it, but i still always say "oh really?" all the time. forgive me. (for some reason i thought it was hilarous that you used those examples of car breakdowns and fight club on tv haha don't know why)

    6. The other day either rachel or dheevena was talking about this blog post because i was eating an apple unnecessarily loud. i love apples. and it was cool knowing other people stalk your blog too haha
