If I get

any more shit about Coldplay not being on my fucking favorite albums of 2008 list I am going to scream.

It doesn't mean I didn't love the album. It just means that there are at least 26 albums that I loved a bit more.
Coldplay is on enough lists.
Shut the fuck up.

I named it Viola which was taken from Twelfth Night. And it is far more attractive in person.

Time for grandma's!

Eisley and Glassjaw should probably never go on the same mix CD

1. My parents are almost impossible to make mix CD's for anymore. I'm trying to incorporate music that they actually like along with the shitty stuff that I enjoyed over the year, but it is proving to be extremely difficult.
2. It's sad how well I know Girl Talk's music because I know when a new sample is coming in and the lyrics to the sample and I pretend that I'm DJing (AND I KNOW HE'S "NOT A DJ" PER SE). I cannot wait until March 3rd.
3. I am so extremely tired and out of it. It's 4:58 AM
and fuck... it's Christmas Eve.

I think I may just make CD's of stuff that I like and hope that they pick one or two songs from it to play 24/7 in their cars.

I want to make a video blog.

Suck on this while I try to wrap my head around the concept of a top 50 list for 2008.

I'm working on it.

I'm doing everything wrong.

This is part of the reason why I have conditioned myself to stay away from expressing my feelings. Especially when it comes to love, or lust, or whatever the hell this feeling is.

I guess I need something to happen that will break down whatever metaphorical wall that I have built up?
I need reassurance and I wish that I didn't.

I want to write a book.

And I was reminded at work yesterday how much I want to be a mother.

Girl, I'm just a jeepster for your loooooveeee

December 20th, 2008:
-I was awoken from my sleep at 4:12 AM and then again 6:40 AM by a very drunk, yet very adorable boy who has the link to this SO I won't say anything more on the subject. Haha.
They were the most interesting drunk dials that I have ever received, though.

- Worked 1-6 and had a blasty blast as usual.

- Went to Starbucks with Tar and Meg afterward and chatted with Lacy and Chris for a good while as I enjoyed the shit out of my Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha iced latte with soy.

- Target where I spent more money that I shouldn't have. I bought another dress. I never buy clothes and that's two dresses in a week. But it's adorable with red and grey stripes and it has POCKETS! I also picked up a package of 2 pairs of gloves that were on clearance for $1.04. One pair is a red orange and the other is white with orange stripes. I guess it's just wishful thinking that I will need them this "winter."

- Then we decided to drive out somewhere to take pictures and settled on Destin. On the way there, I had ridiculous rap music blasting and some prick next to me tried to race me and then turned his bullshit reggaeton up and tried to compete. His lame music was lost in my bass. Ass.

- We ended up at the Destin Commons where we drove up the 6 stories of the parking garage and hung out at the top. We yelled at the few people who walked by and then found that a cop had been watching us from the ground the whole time. Then 2 more cops showed up and Taryn started singing the Arctic Monkeys to some older couple and that's when the cops got in their car to meet us at the top of the parking garage.
In a frenzy, we flew into the car and started the 6 floor descend. At about the 4th or 3rd floor, we passed their car. It was hilarious. I wish we could have seen their faces when they reached the top and found no loud-mouth girls waiting in terror.

-THEN we drove through the Commons blasting "Jizz In My Pants" and received the most incredible looks. That was followed by repeating the song and getting yelled at by some rednecks in the turn lane next to us.

Some other crap happened and I sang the whole way home and annoyed my sister who later joined in.

I'm feeling pretty good.


Currently Listening to: T-Rex

Good golly, let's get jolly

What a very awkward but interesting day.

-I'm 80% sure that an extremely attractive boy saw my underside (or at least most of my thigh) when I got out of my car at my grandma's today
-I never know what to say to my grandma before I leave her house. I go in, greet her and go straight to the shower and then try to come up with a line to leave her with. Luckily she had the line today. BTW; We temporarily have hot water. Can I get a hallelujah?
- While driving to work, I had my windows down, my bass working its ass off, and Breathe Carolina streaming all around. Out of the corner of my eye, see this truck slow down next to my car and some guy sticks his head out. I ignore him but then they drive ahead and he does it again. Just creepy.
- I got the whole "YOU'RE 20?! YOU LOOK 18!!" at work. At least it wasn't 16. I get that far too often. I suppose the braids I was sporting in my hair tonight didn't help.
- A ~boy~ that I haven't seen in nearly 2 years came in. There is a whole back story, but I'll tell you this gist. December of 2006 I went into the Starbucks I frequented and he was there. He flirted and got my name from my credit card. The next time he greeted me by name and for the 4 or so months that followed, it was constant flirting. Then one day he told me that he was married. Awesome.
So, I'm ringing up a customer and I look over and see him as he looks at me. He gives me this cute look and I go into this crazy school girl crush mode. I charged someone's card 3 cents less than they owed and I left a censor on an item of clothing. I was freaking. It was ridiculous.
There was finally a gap of time where I had no customers and he came up and started talking to me. He went on and on about how great I looked and kept randomly saying how adorable I was. It was almost weird. ANYWAY, he made a point to tell me that he got a divorce and also slipped in (oo-er) that he is going into the army in January. Flirting ensued and I made the silly mistake of telling him to come see me before he leaves. It was a strange encounter and my awkwardness doesn't help.
After that, I called a co-worker over so I could fill her in and I start to gush... like a girl. She thought this was the cutest thing and later told me that she had never seen me act so "typical" and that it only works for me because apparently I deserve to freak out over boys. Hah.
- I made a pretty good joke. When said co-worker had to put the censors away she complained about getting poked by them and as she was walking into the back room I yelled "A GOOD POKE IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU NEED, ANGELA." You probably just had to be there.
-Eh, that's it. Tomorrow at work we're doing a Hardcore 80's Rocker dress up day. I'm wearing my Slayer shirt with loads of blush and black eye makeup. Maybe some pictures will be taken. It should be a blast.
-I'm in a really great mood. It's extremely nice.
-It took me over two hours to get this blog written.
- I just accidently stuck my tongue in the hole where my wisdom tooth was. Fucking nasty.

Feist makes my heart sore. So lame.

I hit the 10,000 mark on Last.fm!

I think it's pretty fantastic.

Am I seriously listening to Sublime?

10,000 songs on my itunes!
And after having my laptop for a year and a half, all of my music still isn't on this thing.

Woo.

Is that really what he's saying?

Everyone in my house is under so much stress, that it is finally catching up with me and I am having to try extra hard to fight through it.
Christmas is the best and worst part of the year anymore. I miss believing in Santa because back then I didn't know that my parents had to do this every year and sometimes strain themselves to make it happen for us. They will never know how much I appreciate and love thm.
Times are just extremely difficult right now and that's all I'll say regarding it.


So yesterday:
-Ran errands with Taryn and mom
-Too many 'that's what she said' jokes
-Gigglezzz
-Some girl laughed and sounded exactly like a horse. Funniest thing I have ever heard (that's a lie).
-At Walmart I saw a pack of Christmas cards with Santa on the front making the "Shh" sign. I made my own caption for it: "Don't tell your mom where I touched you." Now that may be the funniest thing I have ever heard and definitely one of the funniest things that I have said... and I have said some hilarious things.
-GOT BLACK TIGHTS! And a simple brown dress to go with them. It's really adorable.
-Cleaned my closet and made it look nearly decent

Today:
-Grandma's to shower
-While going over the bridge, the fog (that has been lingering in town lately) was so horrible that you could not even see the water. I tried to take some pictures but they don't really do it justice. It was incredible.
-I've been singing "Flume" randomly
-Work 4-9 (at least I'm not closing)


I wish it would get cold outside again. I want a true winter. I need to get into the Christmas spirit.


Currently Listening to: Kings Of Leon

Perfectly vague

I'm not even sure if I can come up with the words to accurately describe what I feel right now.

It's love.
Not the act of, but the word itself... in its purest form.
Music.
Thinking back, I'm not sure if I have ever listened to a song and thought "That's exactly what love is like." Those boy bands lied about it and the indie bands seem to play it up too much.
And when you strip down the words with the familiar chorus, what you have left is the center of it all; the sun that the rest of the song orbits around.
This is truly what it is.
It reduces you to rubble and makes you hit the repeat button through the first listen. It's life and death. It's staring into a light bulb and running in fields and getting a brain freeze. It's slow and fast with conversations and then slow again with the quickness making a comeback at the end.
It's open for dissection and interpretation and lovingly accepting of both.


There have been few times in my life where a song or genre of music has hit me this hard.

The going to work mix which is an hour long and I only live 15 minutes away from the mall

1. The All American Rejects - Gives You Hell
2. Andrew Bird - Oh No

12. Late Of the Pier - The Bears Are Coming

17. This is My Suitcase - Jesus Freak

Air drumming to the Jonas Brothers

I've had this box open for 5 minutes as I bite my nails and daydream. Now that I have snapped myself out of it, I probably should follow through with an update.

I wish I had the ability to get rid of things that I really don't need. My sister is getting rid of her bunk bed to replace it with this futon thing and I was amazed at the amount of stuff she had collected from her room to give away. I have too much shit. I hate that I place sentimental value on every silly thing that I own.

A simple trip to the store turned into one of those great, aimless drives that I live for. Taryn and I set out on a mission for... womanly products... and after she turned down my request to stop by Walmart, we ended up at CVS where an extremely cute cashier made it impossible to buy what we needed to. SO we end up at Publix where the lady fucking yells everything that she says to us as I cringe in fear that she may try to hold a conversation with me about what I bought. I acted out said fake conversation for Taryn when we got back in the car: "ARE YOU ON YOUR PERIOD?! ARE YOUUUUUU MENSTRATING????!!!!!! ARE YOU HORMONAL???! ARE YOU GOING TO GET ALL BITCHY BECAUSE I BROUGHT THIS UP??!!" You probably had to be there. Since we both didn't want to go home, we drove through some neighborhoods, I told some jokes and contemplated a career as a comedian after a comment my sister made. I just like that I can always make her laugh.
I circled through town for a bit and finally found the mix I was looking for when I decided to head toward the island. We rolled the windows down (and beared the cold rushing in) as we drove past all of the condos with my bass blaring. The night came to an end with me acting out "Sophisticated Side-Ponytail" for my sister. I'm convinced that she likes that song.

Soundtrack for the night:
Digitalism ; Pogo "I really like this song, who is it??"
Natalie Portman's Shaved Head ; Sophisticated Side-Ponytail
Phoenix ; If I Ever Feel Better


-Our Chistmas tree is up as of Saturday night and we had the MOST fun doing it!
-We have to re-pipe our house and currently have no hot water! (so I've been showering at my grandma's every day)
-I have a Twitter
-I have impossible crushes
-I'm enjoying the moment
-It's time for a now about me on Myspace.
-I cannot stop listening to "I'm a Lady" by Santogold
-I am having deep and intense conversations with Lindsey about the next Twi movies
-I bought my Girl Talk tickets
-I have a dentist appt. at one tomorrow to make sure my mouth is healing correctly. Joy.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKK

Everyone is married or pregnant... or both.
Instead of feeling like I have accomplished something by not falling into that trap, I feel like I've missed something huge.


And the rest is not suitable for my blog.

Lovin' my BFF

TWILIGHT SHOWING, DECEMBER 6

Carlisle: I'm Carlisle, and this is my family.
Lindsey: We don't have names.

Laurent leaves:

Bella: I never gave much thought to how I would die.
Sarah: Didn't you say that already?

Edward, sucking out the venom
Sarah: That's the only sucking that's going to be happening for awhile.

EDIT:
Carlisle: Animal attack.
Sarah and Lindsey: (Carlisle voice) Animal uh-TECK.

The project I got an A on:

http://i38.tinypic.com/35ic17m.jpg

Just click on the link.

Features cover art by Broken Social Scene, two of Montreal albums, Wolf Parade, and some other random greatness.

So, I got an A on my project as well as an A in that class. AND I'M DONE WITH THIS SEMESTER!

When I got home, my mom informed me that my dentist appointment got moved from Wednesday at 2:45 to Tuesday (yesterday) at 1:30 ish. We show up there, fill out forms, and meet the dentist. He checks out my wisdom teeth and then offers to take out the tooth that was bothering me so much since it had already come in enough. My mom asks if he could do that right then and he had no problem with it. I guess it was good that it was so impromptu, or else I would have had way too much time to freak out and obsess and I needed it out then before I removed it myself.
SO, he numbs the area and then I have to hear him remove my tooth. It was horrifying to the say the least and I started to cry uncontrollably at one point and I was gripping onto my jeans with my hands the whole time. It was just bad. My cheek my swollen for about two hours afterward and it's still fucking bleeding so I've had gauze in the area and blood going down my throat for about nine hours. The great thing about it all is my Darvocet prescription.

Now I just get to look forward to getting the other three removed. I will, however, be unconscious for that bullshit.

I need to go Christmas shopping.

Currently Listening to: Robert Pattinson

I have never

been in so much pain in my life.

And I have to give a presentation tomorrow when I can barely talk.

I choose the rooms that I live in with care

-Crushes are so strangeee and silly and rediculous topics in blogs.
-I wish my wisdom teeth would just fucking fall out instead of putting me in this much pain.
-I'm never drinking coffee again.
-I'm yawning so much that my eyes are watering.
-My feet are freezing.
-I love the satisfied feeling I get after stretching.
-Oh, and last night made 10 times. Be jealous.


Currently Listening to: The Walkmen

"Age of Consent" by New Order.

Safety Bricks

My room is rearranged. It is now put together the same way that I put it every year around Christmas time. It's kind of ridiculous. I am getting deja vu, however, because I remember blogging from this exact spot on my bed exactly a year ago. I cannot believe that it has already been a year.

I'm working on my Christmas list. It's making me feel pretty pathetic. I need to find the holiday cheer and bathe in it. I also need to stop feeling bad for making such lists. It's okay if people buy you things, Sarah. Breathe.

My classes end this Tuesday. Hallefuckinglujah. That means that starting next week, I will start compiling my favorite albums of this year for my second annual faves list where I pretty much just list every new CD that I've heard this year because I'm too nice to leave any out. And I'm stressing out over this more than the project that I haven't started on that is due Tuesday. BUT I know what number 1 is going to be... I think.

And there will be some of this:


And of course a bit of this undeniable tastiness:





Currently Listening to: Kevin Drew

I'm trying to forget

that I should have been seeing of Montreal tonight.

I love flakey friends. Honestly. I need more of them in my life... whenever they feel like it, that it.

FREAKING OUT

LIKE A CRAZY PERSON.

I was greeted at work by my other manager telling me that Foxy Shazam is coming to Pensacola in February. THEN, at some point during the night, our main manager texts her and tells her to tell me that BREATHE CAROLINA and cute is what we aim for is coming in fucking March.
THEN IT ACTUALLY GETS BETTER SOMEHOW...
I get home and start trying to make sure that these shows are legit (I worry a lot) AND I FIND OUT THAT FUCKING GOD DAMN FUCKING GIRL TALK IS COMING IN MARCH AS WELL.
FUCKING GIRL TALK.
GIRL TALK.
YEAH. FREAKING OUT.
AND I AM IN DISBELIEF BUT THERE ARE TICKETS SO IT SEEMS LEGIT.
FUCKING GIRL TALK.
MY CHEEKS ARE HOT AND FLUSHED FROM THE SQUEALING FESTS I HAD WITH MY SISTER ABOUT THIS.

GODDDDDDD

Whew

Growing out my bangs
Letting my eyebrows get fuller
Rearranging my room like I always do before Christmas
More yoga
No dwelling
No stressing
More writing
Positive self image


And now I sleep.
