readmorewikipedia:
Quirkyalone is a neologism referring to someone who enjoys being single (but is not opposed to being in a relationship) and generally prefers to be alone rather than dating for the sake of being in a couple.
That is the most “seriously you guys shut uuuuup!” word.
As much as I hate that word this is my life.

story of my life:
Telling myself I need to lose weight, and next thing I know it’s 2:30am, and I’m sitting on my bed downing leftover Chinese food from two days ago.

My life is officially a joke.
intentions/behavior
Acting teachers are always advising students to observe their daily lives to see how hidden intentions manifest themselves dynamically through behavior in everyday life. I’m always on the look out for these spontaneous actions, and they happen a lot. But just now was particularly interesting.
My mom walked into my room to talk to me, but I didn’t want her in there; however, I did want...

day fourteen:
I totally will always eat stuff that’s fallen on the floor/ground. This summer I had a DQ blizzard that fell on the asphalt, and I definitely just wiped off as much detritus as possible and kept digging in. Some people think that’s gross, but my philosophy is that it builds up my immune system!
why i love my job part I
My Boss: [very formally] I'm going to need you to delete all these rows from this Excel spreadsheet I just emailed you. Do you know how to do that?
Me: Yeah, of course.
My boss: Let me watch you do it so I know you're doing it right.
Me: Well, I can just watch you do it if there's a certain way you want me to do it.
My Boss: Are you saying you don't know how to do it?
Me: [pause] Are you saying *you* don't know how to do it?
My Boss: No.
[I delete a row.]
My Boss: You just deleted the entire sheet.
Me: No I didn't.
My Boss: OK.
[And he walks away.]

day thirteen:
Umm I am not an active enough tumblr user to participate in this, but I’d definitely fuck John Mayer if given the opportunity. But then afterward I’d probs throw him off a cliff. I honestly have no one to answer for the marriage one. :(
day twelve:
a paper I need to write
day eleven:
This one’s hard because on one hand it’d be incredible to be able to be isolated from the rest of the world and hang out on a beautiful island with the person with whom I’m completely in love and have no extraneous worries, but ten years is an extremely long time to be cut off from civilization. I think it’d get old after, like, a summer.
Plus even though I know exactly...

day ten:
things i’ve done with boys
day nine:
the fact that time can only move forward and that I, therefore, will only get older
day eight:
Well, last night I went out, but it was nothing spectacular. Let’s see… I got off work at 3 and had to drive an hour home to Clarkston from Ann Arbor. The plan was to immediately take a shower and do my hair because my hair takes FOREVER to do.
But that didn’t quite work out because on my way home I got into a little fender bender on the highway. My first accident ever! (other...
day seven:
LIKES: hair, boobs, height, ears!, this beauty mark on my face, nose
DISLIKES: chin, arms, this awkward part of my leg, hands, the fact that i should probably lose like 20 pounds
day six:
With $10,000 I’d hire a personal trainer so I would finally get in shape properly. I think I’d need that for about two months. Then I’d get really awesome headshots, move to LA and enroll in acting classes. Plus I’d get car and health insurance. Basically I think $10,000 would be an AMAZING little jump-start to my career.
day five:
I do plenty of weird things when I’m alone. Most often I sing really loud to YouTube karaoke versions of musical theatre songs. I try to belt out all the high notes that I know I wouldn’t dare reach for if anyone else were listening.
I also stare at myself in the mirror a lot and have conversations with myself. Well, not conversations exactly. I just imagine a scenario where someone...
day four:
[except really I haven’t done this for about a week since my day three post]
The best thing to happen to me this week was that I was cast in a very exciting student film! It will be shot on 16mm and hopefully transferred to HD. Plus it’s set in Spain, and I get to speak only in Spanish. Yay! We’re shooting for two weekends at the end of October/ beginning of November.
day three:
Men:
1. It irritates me when guys aren’t interested in the details- hearing them and/or giving them. It can be like pulling teeth to get them to open up and tell more than the absolute basics of a story.
2. It irritates me when hot guys are douchebags. Don’t they realize that they would be even more attractive if they were also kind and humble?
3. It irritates me when men are...
day two:
People most often tell me I look like Catherine Zeta-Jones, which is a ginormous compliment because I think she’s gorgeous. Looks-wise I’ve also heard Michelle Branch and Monica Bellucci and even Kim Karashian once or twice. I don’t know if I’ve really been compared to celebrities on any deeper level than that. I compare myself to Laura Linney because I’d love to have...
day one:
I don’t officially like anyone, but there’s this one guy I kind of know who “intrigues me,” let’s say. Basically he’s cute, and he dresses well. From our extremely brief conversations, I’ve also gleaned that he’s smart. Like, really smart. And he seems to be one of those people who’s shy at first but then is really outgoing after you get to...

Things going on in my life currently:
I just semi-graduated from college. I have to take summer classes, but I did the whole commencement thing. And Obama was there so I’m kind of obsessed with how epic it was!
I was just cast in a local production of the musical Curtains! I play Niki Harris, which is a super awesome role that I’m beyond excited about. Tonight we had our very first rehearsal!
My brother’s in...
OK so obviously
I’m not destined to write a blog, but I’m just gonna keep this little tumblr as a day-to-day journal slash collection of random things I find on the Internet that I find entertaining or otherwise of note. It’s not like anyone else reads this anyway so I’m just gonna do what I want. It may be sporadic, maybe I’ll start keeping up with it more. Who knows?!
