Funny the way it is...	[22 Aug 2011\|01:35am]
(did I just recently use that as a title? Whatever...it's the story of my life) Funny the way it is that the same songs I heard on the radio in my moms car today were the same ones i heard last year. (sidenote: HEY AMERICA...PUT NEW AND BETTER SONGS ON THE RADIO) Funny the way it is how the same songs that put a lump in my throat a year ago did the same thing today just for a different reason Funny the way it is that I have no idea when the next time I'll be in this house will be. Funny the way it is how motivated by spontaneity I am right now. Just...funny the way it is. And I like it.

went to a live show last night. it was the greatest feeling in the world. when I left with my friends...I said: "GUYS...can we PLEASE come to places like this more often?!" I got blank stares. one person even said: "no." #iREALLYmisshighschool #imissmyoldself #timetoreevaluate P.S. I bought tickets to two shows today. that's what's up. :)

LJ is not forgotten	[25 Oct 2010\|01:00am]
Note to self: Never date, become best friends with, or be a friend with benefits with anyone who plans on leaving the country. I cannot handle the fact that my emotional state is currently based on people leaving America. That is all.

...and we laughed in the night and I felt alllllllll right.	[15 Mar 2010\|12:25am]
fairly amazingly awesome last spring break ever. EH...who am I kidding, this spring break was fucking fabulous. in fact, I don't think that I've been this happy and secure ever....EVERRRRRR. I don't want to amount this all to one thing, but it is kind of a big deal. even though I don't want it to be. but I just can't help but be ecstatic. too bad if you don't know what I'm talking about...hopefully I will when I come back to this in five years. I've got the feeling I will though ;] in other news, why can't some people take a hint? i don't like to not be nice, but geez man...I just really don't want to talk to you. or see you. oy, and I just realized that I probably will see you tomorrow night. EXCELLENT. but it's okay, i'm confident and i know i did nothing wrong so um, screw you. I'll be as nice as I can to a certain point. enough of that. i like my life right now. i'm also excited for the future...which is odd cause there's so much uncertainty. but who cares...that's what life is about right? i'm so optimistic. and i think i always have been, it was just hiding for a little while. luckily i've finally found something errrr someone who can motivate me and make me happy no matter what. for real this time. like seriously guys...for real this time <3 peas. AND LOVE!

My Residence Director told me today that I have the perfect life. No one has ever said anything like that to me. And I don't think that she could be any more correct. My life is pretty damn awesome. It's a pretty odd feeling to kick back and think about that though. I bet you have the perfect life too...in your own way. Sit back and think about it. I promise you won't be disappointed. =]

another "tribute" to Conan?	[27 Jan 2010\|04:43pm]
one of my friends asked me if i could write a little bit about the whole Coco situation so that she could quote me in an article she's writing. I am honored. i just figured i'd write out my thoughts here because I've neglected LJ a liiiiiittle bit too much and I feel bad. so here goes: It was devastating enough to see Conan O'Brien leave NYC last February 2009. At least then fans of "Coco" knew that he'd be back for more shows in June and in the most coveted position of late night television as "The Tonight Show" host. While the East coast was sad to see Conan go, the West coast fit him well. He had the same theme song, the same band, the same skits, and of course the same hair. And with the new edition of his sidekick Andy Richter, Conan seemed unstoppable. And then out of left field NBC drops this major bomb and suddenly wants to move "The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien" to 12:05 AM so that Jay Leno (ew) can have a 30 minute show at 11:35 PM. Newsflash: 12:05 AM isn't "The Tonight Show," it's "The Little Bit Into the Next Day Show." I was mad enough when Jay Leno was going to have a "variety show" at 10 PM because NBC was STILL putting Conan second to Leno even when Conan had "The Tonight Show." But the move to 12:05 AM would be an absolute disgrace to television and to Conan. I was so proud when Conan made a statement that said he was 100% not for the new late night situation NBC was proposing. The last two weeks of "The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien" were comparable to the Writer's Strike of 07-08 when "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" was absolute madness and ridiculousness, in a fantastic way of course. The critics out there say that if Conan had the same viewership for his seven month (wow a WHOLE seven months!) run as "The Tonight Show" host, he would still be on NBC tonight. However, I could not disagree more. While Conan was honored to have the spot as "The Tonight Show" host, I think 12:35 AM is where Conan belonged and he never should have moved in the first place. Of course I don't hate him for moving, it was totally the right career move to make but "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" just worked, and it worked well. He appealed to the right audience, he was in the right place (NYC), and Late Night was HIS show. It really angers me that the reason Conan moved to "The Tonight Show" in the first place was because Jay Leno was leaving NBC. BUT THEN, oh wait, there's Jay Leno at 10, screwing things up for Conan, per usual. Just like Conan said during his farewell speech on his last show on January 22nd, that's enough with the cynicism though. I've got my fingers and toes crossed that when Conan is allowed back on the airwaves in September that he'll still be the same Conan just in a better and brighter place than NBC was for him. Part of me can't help but be a little nervous though. Where's Coco going to end up? The man has literally been part of my life and my closest friends' everyday lives for almost 10 years. Conan O'Brien is a great man with a good heart who just got a bad break thanks to a network who can't get their stuff together. The Coco fans must stay strong and have hope that Mr. O'Brien will return to us September 1st bigger and better than ever. Viva Conan. not as good as my post last february but it'll do =]

Maybe it's because it's time to grow up. Maybe it's because I'm too distracted. Perhaps though it could be because I've just simply forgotten.

Whatever it is, there statements pertain to two things.
1. This LJ.
2. This Summer.

In regards to 1...
I love writing about myself. It's always an amazing feeling to go back to entries I posted in 2005 and read what I was feeling, what I was doing, what I was into. It's good because without this, I would never remember. Lately though I've neglected the LJ and I really think I'm going to kick myself in the future because of this. This year, my Junior year of college was one of the most intellectually ground breaking years of my life and yet I hardly recorded any of it. But maybe since it was so intellectual is why I just didn't find the need to write here. Nonetheless...my Senior year of COLLEGE is upon me. Next year at this time, it's no joking. Which is why I vow from this day on to acknowledge the LJ at least once a week.........this bring me to number 2

This summer:
I won't say anything. In my mind this make sense but right now I won't say anything. Hopefully I'll get this when I read it later on. Something's different this year. I don't know if it's good or bad, although...it's probably a little bit of both. I haven't had a good summer since 2006 and in reality, this is my last full summer vacation academically ever. I left school on a weird note with a lot to look forward to or maybe be scared of next year and that's got my mind in other places than dwelling on being where so many bad things have happened the past 2 summers. I've grown and learned so much the past year and for sure as hell it has been no joy ride. I'm beginning to become. I'll just leave that at that.

A note on Junior year ending...
Academically, I'm a god. Socially, not so much...but then again I'm not really sure. I always seem to draw wishy washy-ness into my life, meaning...I never get closure. So much was...actually, one thing was left up in the air, and a huge thing at that. I don't know if I was wrong, I don't know if I was right, I don't know if I don't know (yeah, it's that confusing lol)
But I do know one thing, if this one turns out to be a deuch, there's no hope. I will give up and so should every other girl on the planet.

Home is home. I love the smell of summer which is what I got blasted with when I first walked into my room. I think that's what gives me hope. Despite the past two, the smell of summer still makes me nostalgic.

I want to unpack CORRECTLY this year. And I need to get this car situation off my chest. Once those are out of the way, it's clear sailing til August 11th.

For once in a really long time, I can honestly say that it's good to be me right now. Where I am and even more so, who I am. If only everyone else (especially one person) could see that.

I love humid rain. And I can't wait til Conan is back =]

Live from New York....

[20 Feb 2009|11:07am]

[

mood

bittersweet

]

I don't quite know if I'm ready to make this post...but I have to do it sometime....bear with me here.......

Today, February 20, 2009 is a sad, SAD day for NYC and late night as a whole. At 12:35 AM (which I realize really is Saturday morning, but why get technical) Conan O'Brien takes the Studio 6A stage at Rockefeller Center for the last time before he moves to 11:35 on June 1st and more devastatingly...Los Angeles (yuck). The show will no longer be the same. I don't think that Conan will be the same either. The humor will be different, Conan belongs at 12:35 when college kids like myself have nothing better to do and NEED the Conan humor. But no more. I can't help but think of it as bittersweet as Jimmy Fallon will take over in Conan's spot. Fallon IS one of my husbands and I love him to death, but he is no Conan. We must be optimistic though, perhaps the Conan followed by Fallon line up will be a good one. Jimmy has BIGGGGG shoes to fill, and I think that he can do it...HOPEFULLY he can do it. So many Conezoners are going to need revival after Conan ends tonight.

Conan O'Brien. The string dance.The Horny Manatee. The Walker Texas Ranger lever. The dancing. The Donald Trump Impression. The awesomeness from the writers strike. "If they mated." And so much more...everything, literally EVERYTHING about this man is perfect. Ironically I didn't start watching Conan at 12:35, I discovered him over the summer of.....probably 2002 or 2003, when his re-run of the previous night's show ran on Comedy Central everyday at 12:30 in the afternoon. And that's how I spent every afternoon that summer from 12:30 PM to 1:30 PM, Monday through Friday. Watching this crazy tall pale man with insane orange hair make a complete ass out of himself while I laugh my ass off. There've been times when I can remember myself almost peeing if not ACTUALLY peeing my pants at some of the things that he did. But truely, I think that the moment I fell in love with Conan was with this...

</div>

So this is my tribute to Conan O'Brien. I'm probably not the BIGGEST fan...but damn, do I love the guy. He made my brother and I get along for at least one hour every summer afternoon, he gave me something to talk about with the guy that I had the hugest crush on in high school (sighhhh :-p), he gave me lines, he gave me sarcasm, he grew on me. Conan O'Brien will be missed at 12:35...and even moreso in New York City. It's been a great run Conan, and thank you for all the amazing memories. I shed a tear as I write this but I've got to remember that Conan is not gone for good. I hope and pray that he doesn't change. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD CONAN PLEASE DON'T CHANGE. Farewell Conan O'Brien. You've given me a lot, but if there's one thing that I'll ALWAYS remember it's this...

"keep cool mah babies."

"Live from New York! It's late night with CONAN O'Briiiiiiiiien!!!" RIP 2/20/09 <3

kerfuffle!	[31 Jan 2009\|04:06am]
i want a penthouse super suite in brooklyn that overlooks the manhattan skyline just for me. i want it to be my getaway from everything. my own personal dance club with all the dunkaroos, jager, STEAK, crab rangoons, WENDYS, heiniken, ARIZONA ICED TEA, CHEESY GORDITA CRUNCHES, and non salmonellaed peanut butter you could possibly imagine. i want funky furniture in funky colors and bathrooms that have tvs in the stalls. i don't want anyone else to know about it or be allowed into it beside the following: jimmy fallon, brandon, allie, peter, my brother, lizzy, julie carlo, neil patrick harris, crispypants, thomas sheridan, and maybe a fewwwww more to be named later. Oh and of course cristi because she is the only one who i will not have to bribe to read this. i don't want to live here but i want it to be just for me. non dairy creamer will be played once every hour. there will be hookah. and of course ice cream. maybe some cheeseburgers too. the lighting will have to be perfect and no one is allowed to have a headache, throw up, or pass out. i want it to be my place of no boredum. i also want to have a teleportation device built in so that whereever i become bored i can automatically arrive at this place, with these people, and never be bored again. also, there should be a hot tub. and 14 king sized beds. all different colors to fit whatever mood i may be in. with lots of huge fluffy pillows and blankets. it sounds so good. welcome to megan's head at 4:30 AM. smirk.
