time for a refill, yo

it's finally caught up to me. all these thoughts that have been amassing and ricocheting around in my mind have finally found an escape. but think of this as some sort of lottery, each little segment has the same probability of popping out of the machine at any given time, meaning it's all random. a random sample! okay sorry, i've been paying too much attention in my statistics class. soo..let's get ready to ramble!

mok says: it's raining
JEN nn: ?
JEN nn: rainginw hat?
mok says: here
JEN nn: oh
JEN nn: it's predicted to snow here
JEN nn: in 2 days..
JEN nn: ................................
JEN nn: and it's october........................
mok says: that's normal
JEN nn: ugh no it's not
JEN nn: Texas is normal

only in texas would 75 degree weather with a westerly wind of .049 miles per hour be considered a cold front in the frigid month of october. i think if a weatherman predicted it to snow here, he would be shot on the spot. especially at any time before february.

that's my sister, btw, who is up in northwestern. strangely enough, at this time last year, i pretty much assumed she would be chilling with me here at UT. i even started planning all sorts of brother-sister events full of picnic baskets and matching outfits. okay that may be a bit overboard, who am i kidding, but still, it'd be tight if she was here. even more peculiar (or not interesting at all, depending on your point of view), is that 4 years ago, when i was anticipating college acceptance letters, i probably would have attended northwestern if they had wanted me. ouch, that sounds so rejecting. well, yeah, it was.


so speaking of rain, it was beautiful today! rain pouring down since 4 in the morning, the entire campus sopping wet, just beautiful. i don't remember the last time i felt so superior. rain? no problem. i just put on a tshirt and some shorts, grabbed an umbrella, and slipped into my freaking awesome crocs. non-slip, baby!

i purposely walked through puddles. i coulda conquered the red sea. step aside, moses. step aside, noah. who needs an ark when you have crocs? shoot.

i saw a girl slip today. i felt kinda bad, so i almost walked over to her to help her up and evangelize to her about crocs. well i would have if i had a third hand. i had one hand holding up my umbrella and my other hand clenching a plate of 4 pepperoni rolls (it was buy one get one free tuesday). actually, if i had a FOURTH hand, i would have helped her up. i would need my third hand to eat my pepperoni rolls, duh. either way, there's a happy ending, because before i could even reach her, 2 popped up to help her out. i don't know if they told her about crocs or not, but i'll give them the benefit of the doubt.


word of the moment: sketcho. you ever hear a word that just kinda sticks with you? words of the past include "chump" and "wanker," but step aside, you words have got some competition now. the new word is "sketcho." if you need a definition, then you are probably a sketcho yourself. alright that doesn't make much sense, but this is one of those words that you just gotta figure out by yourself. props to the sophomore girls, actually just cantonshortie, for coming up with this one. real woman of genius.

here is a sketcho pictured with a manfriend.


i watched da vinci code a couple weeks ago with johanna, and i believe it! jk, but it definitely got my mind rolling. i love stuff about controversies and conspiracy theories and whatnot, and this was no different. of course, this isn't really anything more than a silly story, but at the same time, so what if jesus was married? what does that really change? it doesn't discount the fact that he died on that there cross for our here sins, does it? so in my opinion, nothing. nothing changes.


rockets landed bonzi wells for about $2 mil. clutch city is back, that's all i gotta say. bonzibuddy 4 prez.


it is tuesday afternoon, and OU still sucks. had a little get-together on saturday to watch the game. grilled some burgers, devoured some queso, scarfed down some cookies, and in the end, everyone had a food coma. oh, and we won. and now colt mccoy will return to hollywood to finish shooting season 8 of malcolm in the middle.


it's a bird! it's a plane! no, it's my GPA plummeting to the ground!


i miss being a freshman. i guess nostalgia swooped in for an early visit this year. for good reason, too. it's just that everybody and their mom is graduating on time this year (well, except for the cool ppa kids and their moms), so i'm gonna start a little mini-series entitled "remember when.." or "another jog down memory lane" or something cheesy like that. so here's the first one. remember this, back in freshman year?


holy crappers, 22 is a huge number. many many xiexie's (thank you's) to everybody for all the bday wishes and whatnot. and special thanks to ophelia and peter for setting up the surprise for me. sigh and i got caked. at a birthday celebration that wasn't even for me. what are the odds.


okay that's it for now. hope you got your fill. this is mok, signing off.
