Biggest disappointment in a while. But not really.

So, I'm taking a fencing class this semester. Yes, it's totally fun, regardless of how bad I actually suck at the sport. I'm one of the three girls in the entire class, the rest of the class are males. (Note, this is a class of around 20 people.) So even though I suck, I still feel like a total badass for being a girl taking fencing.

ANYWAYS. To the point.

SO there's this guy in my fencing class. I won't say his name, and if he reads this then it is NOT going to be good. BUT! He's kind of cute. And it's SO obvious that we flirt (or so I thought). Like, SUPER obvious (or so I thought). It's not just flirting because we are flirtatious people (or so I thought) but it seemed like actual interest flirting (OR. SO. I. THOUGHT.).

This I was excited for. (NOT ANYMORE)

So recently, I added him on Facebook, thinking perhaps this would open a door to more communication. Maybe he would ask for my number. Or maybe we could just be better friends. WRONG-O. I added him, and not only did I find out he'd been in a relationship for over two years, but he is engaged.

Engaged.

Engaged....

ENGAGED!?! WHAT THE HECK! ENGAGED?!?!! LIKE, GOING TO MARRY SOMEONE ENGAGED!? FIANCÉE SOON TO BE HUSBAND AND WIFE ENGAGED???????

I am sorry sir, but if you are going to be engaged then you need to control your flirtatious habits and just not talk to me. You are in your early twenties and engaged. You are not fully grown yet. You should have shed your flirtatious ways by now if you're ready to make a huge commitment.

At first I took the engagement for (translation: desperately hoping for) one of those silly best friend relationship/engagements/marriages. Ones that aren't legit. You know, the kind where you're like, "Oh let's be married on Facebook tehehehehehe and see if people believe us teheheheheheeh~~~~."

Nope.

After doing some further Facebook stalking I realized that he had pictures of him and his [nngh] fiancée posted way back in 2008, and they looked very happy and lovey-dovey. And don't get me wrong, I am happy for him.

But don't flirt with me. Or the other two girls in the fencing class. Flirt with your FIANCÉE, DAMNIT.

I received an award almost two months ago!

I didn't even realize it, but fellow blogger She Looks Like a Haddock gave me a "Life is Good" award on February 1st, 2011. Thank you so much! I also give the reward back to her, because all of her posts are freaking hilarious. I will post the response questions at the end.

I haven't blogged in so long. I've been busy with school and work and Facebook and whatnot. I also haven't been able to keep up with my 365 project, which is a HUGE disappointment. I recently sold my Canon Rebel Xsi, and I just purchased a Canon Rebel T1i that should be arriving in the mail in two weeks tops.

I'll cut to a chase and tell you a funny joke that I heard from my friend O'Shay.

Ahem.

"So these two guys walk into a bar. The first guy says, 'I'd like some H2O, please.' And the bartender gives him the drink. The second guy says, 'I'd like some H2O, too.' The bar tender gave him the drink, and he died."

The joke is better when it's spoken aloud. H2O is water, obviously. But H2O2 is Hydrogen Peroxide, which can kill you.

Here's another joke!

Ahem.

"There are three guys. The first two walk into a bar. The third one ducks."

HA! That's a knee slapper right there......I didn't get it the first time I was told that joke.

1. If you blog anonymously, are you happy doing this? If you aren't anonymous, do you wish you started out anonymously, so that you could be anonymous now?

I don't blog anonymously. Sometimes I wish I had started out anonymously, sometimes it's more fun that way. But I'm glad I stuck with writing as myself and not some anonymous creeper on the internet.


2. Describe an incident that shows your inner stubborn side.

I refuse to walk back from my car by myself when I am at USC. I always need my friends Logan or Will to walk me back, because I always get back late at night, and it's dark and scary in Columbia at night.

3. What do you see when you really look at yourself in the mirror?

What kind of question is this? I see myself.

4. What is your favorite summer cold drink?

Frozen Lemonade from Panera Bread.


5. When you take time for yourself, what do you do?

I nap. I watch TV. But mostly I take pictures.

6. Is there something that you still want to accomplish in your life?

Finish college, get a great job, move somewhere more interesting, get married, have ONE child, have a husky, so many things in so little time.


7. When you attended school, were you the class clown, the class overachiever, the shy person, or always ditching?

I was definitely the shy person. I still am. Anytime the teacher calls on me to answer a question, even if I know the answer my face will turn beat red.


8. If you close your eyes and want to visualize a very poignant moment in your life, what would you see?

I don't know what poignant is. Pass.


9. Is it easy for you to share your true self in your blog, or are you more comfortable writing posts about other people and events?

I am not uncomfortable writing about myself, but normally I prefer to write about things that happen to me, and if they happen to involved other people, then so be it.


10. If you had the choice to sit down and read a book or talk on the phone, which would you do and why?

Sit down and read a book. I hate talking on the phone.
