Catching connecting flights can be interesting... or maybe I just refuse to allow life to be boring.
Here it is:
1. Starbucks grande no water soy chai.. check!
2. I have seen 3 women with wedding dresses.. I'm punching the next one square in the face.
3. Since when do women wear those Jewish hat things.. ?
4. The most unattractive guy can throw on a navy uniformand be attractive. If he travels in a group of 12.. Even better
5. I'm all for families doing stuff together but maybe not doing drugs and riding the escalator around and around.
6. Chili's should serve fried food starting at 7AM those traveling drunk.
7. There is a 10 year old wandering around lost. I would help.. But it's mildly entertaining. And I hate kids.
8. Note to moms: Do NOT dress your 16 year old son in an Aeropostle sweat suit. It's just rude.
9. Beautiful by Michael Buble is playing. Classic.
10. Yeah.. Give your 6 year old daughter a bigger bag of McDonald's. The one the size of her body isn't big enough. Are you trying to kill her?! Shit.
11. Ha. If I EVER catch anyone I know wearing a pin with a picture of their kid on it, I will never let it go. Never.
12. Neon yellow vests? That's embarrassing.
13. My gate says I'm headed to Cancun. I wish.
14. Bitch. If you're not charging something, get out of recharging area. People have dying phones.
15. No. Outlets do not double as Internet providers. No. Jesus... THINK!
16. Matching family vacation tshirts. Enough said.
17.I hate baby talk. If they don't understand your normal voice what makes you think they will understand a fucked up chipmunk voice?
18. AT&T should have stuck with "more bars in more places." The new campaine sucks penguin penis.
19. Olypics 2016 Chicago. I'm goin. Michael Phelps told me to.
20. Gay marriage legal in Iowa. Just missed my chance.
21. Pause: nap
22. Well.. people still use harmonicas?!? Fucking great. [End nap].
23. I went to the restroom. When I opened the door there was a little girl standing at my door. Scared the shit out of me.
24. Flight 642: delayed because of snow in NY. Just called Ben.. No snow. You lying fucks.

Delta... you are FIRED.
1. Nicolette should never fly before 2PM.
2. Penn Station should be a child-free zone.
3. Delta needs to be fired.
What made me think I could wake up at 9AM on 3 hours of sleep? No idea. Woke up late, 0 Starbucks, ran to Penn Station, just in time. NOT. When the lady at the front desk told me to go to track 7... I thought she meant track 7, but apparently it is CODE for "I have no effing idea so I'm just going to throw a number out there." Track 7 was not headed to Newark Airport; "Not even close" as the train dude confirmed. So, missed my train. Next step was to stare at a large screen until my track popped up next to "TWD" or some shit. Instead of "Newark Airport," New Jersey Transit thought it would be cute to put 3 random letters next to the train stop to signify the airport stop. Brilliant. So I'm standing in the middle of Penn Station, almost in tears and someone drags their child past me as the thing is screaming... ew. I have never wanted to hurt a child more in my life. Gross. Why must I be subject to such torture. My train popped up, I ran to the track, got there just in time and was on my way to Newark airport.... late, as in I might miss my plane late. Yeah. FML.
So I get to the tram at Newark airport and of course, have to ride the tram to the very last terminal. Once out, I ran as fast as I could, dragging my suitcase behind me. EVERY possible extra step I could have taken... I did. So convenient. The delta people were no help. AT ALL. But I somehow made it to my gate with 3.5 minutes to spare only to find out that my flight had been delayed an hour. Perfect. So now I was sitting waiting and couldn't go get Starbucks for fear that my plane would leave without me. Finally on the plane, we sat for another hour. Ha. It was awesome.
Flight = FING TERRIBLE. Child, sitting behind me. Kicking seat. Not the worst part. I was quietly taking a nap... minding my own business and this alien goblin child reaches through the seats and touches my arm. WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD THAT EVER BE OKAY?! No. I was done. I was ready to hop back on a plane to New York.
In Atlanta... still stuck on plane. Connecting flight leaves in 11 minutes. I push past first class not without scolding. An old man decided to mumble to me.. "Calm down." Bad idea. I made sure he clearly understood why I was in a hurry and why he should probably not comment on my hasty movements again. Plane door opens. 7 minutes til my flight TAKES OFF. AWESOME. I don't think I could have run faster if I was hoping for the gold medal in the Olympics. I got to my gate and they were still there... and it was delayed, 20 minutes. Perfect... FOOD. Vending machine 20 yards away and back. Doors closed. Tears fall. I'm yelling at onlooking civilians, questioning the Delta people, pleading them to let me on, called my mom and cried to her. I was a mess. Running around the wing like a mad woman trying to get on my plane. Nope. Panic attack set in. I found a small corner, curled up and listened to Lil Wanye on my iPod. It helped.
New connecting flight. Left 6 hours later. Eventually got to De Moines. Justin was there. Made me smile for the first time that day.
Never fly Delta. They will fuck you over.

It has been a week more. Escape was found on 40th street for approximately 5 days, leaving pilgrims behind in savaged quarters.
I returned to worsened living conditions. Its dark and I am forced to live by candles. Hair has crawled out of the drain and now sits perched on the tiles of the shower. Dirty socks stake camp at the base of the toilet. A white towel serves as a rug, taking fingerprints of the dirt that collects.
The Queen of Siberia has draped our furniture in wax. Green wax. Now it is hard to recognize the brown of the desert from the seemingly green of the jungle.
The flicker of flame reminds us that fire is only a candlestick away but we can already feel the warmth of its destruction. When her eyes shut, our soul finds peace but now even the absence of her iris’ cause risk. Our sanity is at stake.

I have 3 points.
So... I am not mentally retarded and generally have a grasp on the major concepts of life but there are a few things I just can't get past.
First on the list would have to be...
Why the FUCK would anyone find it necessary to blast horrific music in the living room of an apartment shared by four. Not only is this "music" blasting in our common living area from a PC, but at 9:26. Now I'm gonna take a long shot and assume that 9:30ish is a reasonable hour for it to be relatively quiet in order for people to, I don't know.... write papers maybe!? I mean, we DO go to the King's College where we write papers like it's nobodies business. Back to the music, seriously?!? It's out of control. Get yourself together and turn that crap off.
2nd:
I think I would be willing to argue that "racist" is one of the most overused and incorrectly used words in the English language. Let's skip the bullshit. Here it is.
1. There is a difference between acknowledging diversity and discriminating.
2. If you choose to NOT see "color" you are implying that the differences between people are in fact bad, when in reality it's quite the opposite.
3. Diversity is a good thing. People are and should be proud of where they come from. Then why should we pretend it doesn't exist?
4. Racism isn't going anywhere until people are willing to accept that they are accepted.
5. If you can't think of a better word than "racist" to express your opinion then keep it to yourself.
Lastly (maybe)
When all Manhattan schools are canceled and all workers are allowed an extra 2 hours to get to work because of the effing blizzard you would think that maybe one class at the King's College would be canceled. Yep... no. Why? Because we are aspiring to be leaders that will one day lead strategic public and private institutions of the world. Yeah, eff my life. I could have gone to Chico but noooooooo. I had to go to the school where you almost die trying to become some sort of expert in the fields of politics, economics, and philosophy. Awesome.
Okay. Done.
Kinda. BLAH.
Life is rude.

February 25th 2009 11:23PM
It's been two weeks, living conditions are rough. Mice with bones so little they can fit in the tiniest crack beneath our bedroom door. On the other side of that bedroom door live bed bugs. The scariest vermin known to sleepers...everywhere. Bites along my leg, I don't know when or how...just who.
It's so hot these days, grains of sand seeping up through the carpet while the dial on the heater is broken...it won't turn off high. The queen is the happiest she has been, since the big move to what is now...Saudia Arabia.
While there is a drought in the living room and sleeping quarters, the bathroom remains flooded at least three times a day. Toilet paper is constantly running low, forcing us to use paper towels that clog the new york sewer system. Water is going to have to be rationed soon..as well as toilet paper. Too many showers, yet I havent showered in weeks.
We ran out of mozzarella today. Asparagus in its rawest form. Thankfully, we have enough half-eaten apples to last us a while.
Space is low, books now take up residence in our bath tub, as well as using the Oxford Annotated Bible as both toilet paper and for cockroach squashing. Black seeps from its edges as it kills one more of the creepy crawlers that is the cockroach colony.
Mold is growing back. We thought we conquered it months ago. The pain is cracking and it is back with vengeance. Time spent in a closed shoebox bathroom is also being rationed due to toxic chemicals growing on the ceiling above us.
A week ago we ran out of room for the little food we have. Boxes of pasta and loaves of bread fall from the shelf...not that we could have eaten it anyways because the heat destroys all that is edible.
Victory though will prevail. It has to.

Commitment... really?!?
I realize that another post about Starbucks is outright barbarous butttt... this is my blog. So shut up and drive. Or ride. Point: I'm going to do it anyway.
"The Way I See It #76"
The irony of commitment is that
it's deeply liberating - in work, in
play, in love. The act frees you
from the tyranny of your internal
critic, from the fear that likes to
dress itself up and parade around
as rational hesitation. To commit is
to remove your head as the barrier
to your life.
- Anne Morriss
WTF?!? @##&@*$*#
Why why why, do I keep getting this cup?? This quote has been posted on my daily Starbucks cup for over 2 weeks now. I feel like there is no truly significant need for this nonsense and it should probably end soon. And no, I'm not crazy psycho, and yes I have a life... I would not normally take the time to complain about this ridiculousness that IS my life. However, read the quote again. If you know anything about me, you know this is the exact OPPOSITE! of how I feel. Commitment... really?!? Gross. Geez louissszzzzzz!! My love for "The Way I See It" is slowly wearing off. I get enough of this bs from the rest of the world, and now... from a corporation. Give me an effing break.
Rude.
