See, really random. But the point of this post is because I for some reason was looking at my old school ID’s, which I found my 8th grade and 9th grade one over winter break, and I still have my one from senior year in my wallet. But yes! Ahem, as I was saying…the difference is astounding. I feel bad for my 8th grade self. Or rather my end of 7th grade/beginning of 8th grade self. That was the last time that she (I) looked cute. Not cute like a guy would think cute. But like kid cute. Somewhere between there and freshman year…ick. I’d guess some people reading this are thinking maybe it’s my skin that went ick. But no, that’s incorrect. I’ve never had any issues with my skin, I’ve been ridiculously fortunate and have always had clear skin (I say fortunate because my brother gets ridiculous zits and he even uses face wash. I’ve never done more than wash my face with water. Again, off topic). No, the ick I speak of is weight. That thing called baby fat apparently didn’t exist, or it increased once ended middle school. It’s a hideous picture, I have a hideous (possibly creeping onto triple) chin, and I just in general look horrible. Mind you I know the hair is horrible because I had yet to discover a little thing called a straightener to get that damn poofiness out of my hair. I’m speaking mostly of the face. The senior year, which I also have my ID for…not quite as ick, but still. You know the general image of a roadie with long, nasty looking hair? Yeah, that’s my hair in it. The extra chins appear to be gone, but I look like a man, and not an attractive one either. I also look like a man in my yearbook picture for that year, in my opinion. My nose also seemed to have widened some to my disgust. My college ID looks the best. I have nice bangs in it, which was new just in time for high school graduation, plus the pretty and not ugly natural dark brown hair color, but rather a lighter brown thanks to the highlights. Plus my face looks a lot more thinned out. However in all of them my skin in much lighter than in was in middle school. Probably because I don’t get as much sun in the summer as I did back then. Instead of looking full out Mexican (which I’m not, and probably is a good thing seeing as I live in Arizona), I just have a nice light tan complexion. That’s as much as I’ll get to on this for now, it was really a random thought. I’ll just add my weight have really been a roller coaster, especially in high school with my freshman year probably being the heaviest I ever was. Thanks to three years of college, commuting to and around campus and being able to control my own meals (My family doesn’t understand portion control or healthiness much), I’m probably around 40 pounds light than I was back then. Plus, you know, about 3 or inches taller. NOW I MUST COOK DINNER SO THEN I MAY ENJOY THE GAME THAT BEGINS IN A HALF HOUR!!! WE CANNOT BE DEFEATED AT HOME, AND HAVE YET TO BE!! WE BEAT OUT UCLA FOR SOLE CONTROL OF 2ND PLACE IN THE CONFERENCE, WE’LL EASILY STAMP OUT USC!!! THEN COME A FEW WEEKS TIME WE’LL GET BACK AT WASHINGTON ON OUR HOME TURF AND TAKE FIRST PLACE. THEN THE PAC-10 TOURNAMENT. THEN INTO THE SWEET 16. THEN THE ELITE EIGHT. THEN THE FINAL FOUR. AND POSSIBLY THE CHAMPIONSHIP. BEAR DOWN WILDCATS!!!! Yes, much excitement. Why? Two reasons: First, there is no Alex Zendejas to completely screw us over (If you’re an Arizona fan or watch PAC-10 then you probably know what I’m talking about). Second, somebody by the name of Derrick Williams. Tags: basketball, random, sports |

School…so much this semester. Microbial physiology is going to kick my ass unless I fight back and kick its ass instead. Cell biology and virology are going to be challenging, but should be doable. The professor wasn’t lying, Japanese does get harder once you hit second year. Yet I’m taking it because I was to learn the language and minor in it. I actually just got back from my INDV section…there’s like 10 people tops in it. And I’m pretty sure almost all of them speak Spanish, along with the TA. It’s not his Spanish speaking section, but still. They must be in it because they actually want to know stuff about Latin America. I just grabbed whatever INDV I could that fit in my schedule so I wouldn’t have to worry about getting almost all my elective done my senior year. Although I can tell you right now (and I’m not glorifying myself here, I’m serious) I am the brainchild of that class. When we were working on a map my TA had to ask out loud if we knew what a peninsula was because so many people had no clue. One of the people I was working with didn’t know where the Sonora Desert is, which is bad considering we live in it. Last night was all new episodes of stuff, Bones, The Office, 30 Rock and Parks and Recreation finally came back on. Had I watched them, I wouldn’t have been able to watch either Bones or The Office and 30 Rock because stupid American Idol took the 7PM spot last night. However, I watched none of them. Buffy was on for 3 hours last night, and I had to watch that because it’s almost to the end. Tonight should be the series finale, unless Logo decides to be stupid and not air it like they did Monday. I also watched Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica yesterday, and my first thought after it was over: “Shit just got real.” It was unexpected for a mahou shoujo anime, but damn. I must say, I’m surprised that this is turning out to be my favorite of the season, especially since I’ve never found SHAFT shows to be more than a bit of random entertainment. I leave you now with this awesome ED. Under a cut because of the size. |
