Weirdos

I have decided that I attract weirdos, well at least for the most part. I mean, yeah, they are pretty good looking but still, weirdos haha I don't really know what happened but I'm totally not in the mood to be dating anybody right now. I like going on dates and hanging out but I'm just not in the right place to be with anyone at this time. I'm super busy but I really enjoy being busy. It pushes me and makes me really focus, which I really need because I lose focus extremely fast. Maybe that's why I generally can't be with a guy for very long, I lose focus (and probably interest?) too quickly to develop anything meaningful. I'll ponder over it for a while and see what I come up with.

Besides that, this week has been pretty bland. The usual work and school has been tiring but I still want to go out and have some fun with my friends tonight. I'll just have to drink some caffeine to stay awake haha I fell asleep in my 4 person class this week...whoops! The super-hot quarterback guy just stared at me as I kept nodding my head and fell asleep haha I really should do some homework before I go out tonight so I'm off to that...

(_____) at First Sight

We all know the saying "love at first sight" but I wonder, is it really love? Or is it that instant crush, that lust for a person because lets be serious, nobody falls in love with someone from just looking at them. However perfect a person may look, we all know there are some serious crazies out there. I'm not really talking about anything in my life but I was just pondering the idea today at work. While researching South Florida, DC and LA and their gay scenes, pictures of cute couples kept popping up on the various websites. It got me thinking, are these sites/groups/clubs/organizations advertising friendship, love or lust? Of course they don't say most of the times but it's still interesting to think about.

Anyways, this week is been pretty crazy. I started my new internship today, which was pretty cool, and I've had a big painting assignment due. I'm not a painter at all so it was particularly frustrating to paint perfect lines but I got through it and it looks pretty good. I'm just excited for the weekend already and it's only Tuesday haha I hope to get back to posting on a regular basis not that my schedule has finally been hammered out so hopefully once a day or two.

Good Day

Today is such a great, no amazing, day! My classes were easy, the same really hot quarterback (he was in my class last semester) is in my german class, I got my internship I wanted and my mom is coming right now with my car!

Last week I interviewed with GLAAD (gay, lesbian alliance against defamation) to be their Regional Events intern and I got called today and was offered the position. It's my first official internship so I'm pretty excited. The office is nice and has beautiful views of Hollywood, West Hollywood and Beverly Hills. Essentially the pretty parts of LA haha

My family drove down today for a few days in Disneyland and my mom is driving my car up here to drop off tonight. Needless to say, I'm damn ready to have a car haha I'm going to disneyland on friday so that'll be really fun. I'll be sure to post some pictures of the day. My roommate and I scrubbed down our apartment today so my mom won't thing I'm a slob. In reality our place is pretty clean for two college guys but my mom owns a cleaning business so she's a neat freak. But alas I have to finish up some dishes before she gets here so I'm off.

Music Festivals


So the Coachella lineup officially came out today. I'm not gonna lie, I'm kinda bummed by it. After last years I was expecting something fantastically amazing. This years will be pretty rockin but, in my opinion, just not the same caliber as last years. For all of you who don't know what Coachella is, it's a huge 3-day music festival near Palm Springs, CA in April that features the biggest musical acts in the world. No showers, lots of alcohol/drugs and wonderful music. Now I'm not the biggest proponent of drugs but if you've ever been to an event like this, you'd know just how "wonderful" the whole thing can be haha People are just so chill and relaxed. Good time to get some sun, listen to tunes and meet new people.

Anyways, I'm probably not going this year. Unless someone wants to give me about $500 :) haha It really would be fun just to go but it's really expensive and I don't feel like saving my money haha Facebook is going crazy right now with all the status updates about the festival so it's pretty funny to read them all.

My friends and I are also trying to plan a 4-5 day spring break cruise leaving from Los Angeles and I have absolutely no idea how to look for these things so if anyone has any tips or suggestions, I'm totally open for them!

Typical Day

So it's finally the weekend! I couldn't be more excited to just relax. This week was pretty hectic with school, work and friends. I got into the German class I wanted so hopefully it will be great. I also had an interview for an internship yesterday so hopefully I'll hear back soon from them! I figured I would give a rundown of a typical Monday for me:
   8am: wake up, shower, breakfast
   9-12pm: Design Fundamentals
   12-2pm: lunch
   2-3:20pm: German
   3:30-5pm: Writing class
   5-7pm: dinner
   7-8:30pm: RA staff meeting
   8:30-10pm: homework
   11pm: bedtime

Monday is probably the busiest day for me. I like being busy though, it helps me stay on task and get my shit done. I hope everyone is having a wonderful long MLK weekend because I sure know I am! I don't have school until Tuesday at 6:45pm haha long weekend FTW!! Well I'm off to go outside and shop and get lunch. It's currently 84 degrees here so it's FANTASTIC and I must simply go outside.

Busyyy

Sorry the posts, or lack thereof, have been so lame. I've been crazy busy moving back to school, starting school, working and other stuffage. As soon as I get time I'll do an awesome post to make up for my recent lameness!

Suggestions

First off, I hope everyone had a wonderful New Years. Mine was completely uneventful haha Since it's the new year, I figured I'd ask if anyone wanted to hear anything specific from me? I'm going to do a video post tomorrow! I was going to do it today but I had to take care of my little brother today. He's 8 and has the flu or something, not fun. So yeah, just let me know if you have any topics you want me to cover!
