| "hard-to-freakin-get" |
[03 Jul 2005|11:44pm] |
So secretly, we spend our lives searching for the right guy. Some girls get lucky and end up with "The right one" and some just settle for the guy that could be the next best thing. But really, is there honestly someone out there for each and everyone of us? Is there really such thing as my Mr. Right: "Mr. colored eyes, Christian, GQ Model kinda guy"? I've always wondered if some guys truly need a map handed to them because they get so lost and caught up doing who knows what with who knows who. Should us girls somehow blame ourselves for the sorry looking thing we THINK is "Mr. Right" when he's really, truly, (like Cameron Diaz put it in The Sweetest thing...) only "Mr. Right NOW"?
I started reading this book called "He's just not that into you." The plot and whole idea of the book is great and the moral behind it gets pretty obvious after the first 3 or four chapters. Plain and simple: Boys are full of shit (and lame excuses) and only want you-want you when they feel like they can't have you. When boys want you, they'll call you, they'll go up to you, they'll ask you for your number.. and yada yada yada. Hand me another tissue to this sob story... how pathetically cliched can this book get???? DUUUH!.. we KNOW THESE GUYS WANT A GAME OF "HARD TO GET."... we know that by being a good sport and doing the whole "digit" and "date"-asking the boring traditional way we'll somehow, some painfully way, get the freakin guy. But what the hell!? What about US? What about OUR needs? Am I really expected.. (as a girl).. to get all prettied up, mascera and heels and all and wait to actually find a guy, actually wait for him to ask me for his number, actually just bat my eyelashes over and over and smile innocently as he "DECIDES" if he's going to call me or if he's even interested? Uh No SIR NO WAY. I'd rather sit through an episode of Passions. Ew.
Eve may have been the only girl alive, but Adam sure as hell didn't just want her because she was naked. He saw her for HER. He "KNEW" that she was the one.. right?? So why should we play these little games of "hard to get" and "lets wait for the boy to call so the girl can sit by her phone all night and wait for a freakin phone call." If there should be any game involved, lets worry about the one that lets US girls be the one in charge of this lame kinda- game. Some guys really just don't get it... girls want what they can't HAVE. It's true. Really. I promise.
Let me say it again boys: (slower) WE. WANT. WHAT. WE. CAN'T. HAVE.
Example: (for those boys who are slow and still don't get it.) If we don't answer our phone once, were either busy or we don't want to talk to you. Don't you DARE make second or a third or even 4th, you'll drive us nuts and drive yourself into a hole that you may never be able to get out of.
Woman may be from Venus and Men may be from Mars but we somehow, someway seem to have things in common. We are so different but yet so alike it's amazing. We think we don't understand each other, but we really just can't understand ourselves. We want guys when we can't have them and the ones we can have we don't want. It's a sad and tragic neverending cycle. What SHALL WE DO?

| you party animal you. ;] |

I've had this intense urge to be a "Carrie Bradshaw" and write a column... Just for the kicks...
---
It's Friday night. Friday. Fucking. Night. (YES!!)
Your legs are shaved. Your hair is straight. Your toes are polished and the night seems so young.
Your cell phone is ringing constantly as different boys call asking what "you and your girls are doing tonight." You tell them "you don't know" (when you really do) and eventually ask them what they're planning as you apply that new colored MAC eyeliner to your eyes. The options turn out to be endless.
Wait. Stop. Put that lipgloss down. No really put it down. Now ask yourself: "What is YOUR motive for going out tonight?"
The way I see it, there are 6 types of motives girls have when they plan on going out.
1. You have your "horny gals" who need and want "some" (kissing, sex, cuddling) and will do everything and anything to get it. They go out in those shorter than short skirts, small crop top (cleavage and all) and the highest stilettos that you've ever seen. THEIR MISSION: to get attention, to get guy's numbers, to tease and to just plain GET SOME. It's all fun and games at the beginning but the night ends and they wake up in the morning with bad breath, messy hair and smeared eyeliner in some really ugly guy's bed. Then they quickly leave and erase whatever happened that night from their mind. "Never again." (they tell themselves) "Never again."
2. You have your "hopelessly romantic gals" who hope with all their little dear heart that they will end up meeting some extra hot boy who will not only know how to dress and have a killer smile, but he will actually turn out to be a really Good guy. This is the reason they take hours on their hair, makeup and spend a whole day at the mall searching for the perfect outfit. They know they'll be in the dark and no one will actually SEE them, but the whole "dress up" and "what-IF I meet Mr. Right" scenario makes everything so much more interesting. And this fantasy dream boy that about 1 out of every 10 girls gets lucky and finds, ends up being some weird, random loser that still lives in high school and that seemed so much cuter inside the dark club. You girls know what I mean, the transition is like going from Brad Pitt to Michael Jackson. "WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!!?"
3. You have your "party like it's 1999 all night long gals" who pretty much go out to get completely trashed. They know every type of drink there is out there, dirty, on the rocks, frozen... you name it, they've tried it. They need a martini to celebrate when they made an A in class, they need shots when they're having problems with the boyfriend, they need a margarita just because its Wednesday, (and that's the day before Thursday), they need a cosmo because it matches their outfit... In other words, they use every excuse to drink. These girls are hardcore and dancing on tables, drinking drink after drink and walking home barefooted with their heels in their hand is just a normal night out. The only thing these girls wake up to is a headache, stomachache and the simple word: "OOPS."
4. You have your "I can't stand to be home because I just broke up with my ex" girls. These girls go out only because they know that if they stay home they'll be tempted to dial their ex. Not only that, but they know that if they do stay home, they might end up in their room, going through the infamous "ex" box (the one that has every keepsake and memory from the past relationship) and listen to dashboard confessional. Of course, the "ex" box and dashboard will eventually lead to a trashcan full of used tissues. Obviously, no girl would want to torture herself in such a tragic way, so she goes out with her girls and secretly, in the deepest part of her heart, hopes she runs into her ex. When she doesn't, she's sad and NOT HAVING FUN. This girl also talks to the first guy that she sees once her ex boyfriend's best friend tells her that her ex is out sleeping with the school's hoe. Rebounds are a bitch. And revenge only bites you back in the ass. These girls go out to "TRY" and have fun, but usually just stay up until 7a.m. on the phone with her ex begging for him back.
5. You have your "dress to impress gals" who ONLY get a kick out of dressing up like the model on the latest cover of Cosmo. She flips through magazines before going out to steal hairstyles and make up ideas. She likes to dress up and her main motivation for going out is to look good. These girls usually ask for a drink that looks good with her outfit and you'll more than likely see her taking more bathroom breaks than everyone else so she can make sure her hair and makeup still look hot. These girls usually wake up in the morning after a shitty night and say, "CRAP, what a total waste of an OUTFIT!"
6. Lastly, you have your "GIRLS JUST WANT TO HAVE FUN" gals.
(Self explanatory) These girls wake up looking through their digital camera pictures and telling themselves over and over..."Now THAT was an awesome night."
What is YOUR motive? ;]

Man OHH Maaan. July already? No freakin WAY !!! Time seriously flies and by the time I know it I'll be packing my bags for Austin. I really wish I had my digi during the month of June for stuff like:
Luana's birthday at the beach, our San Antonio road trip, Warped Tour, nights that took hours to get ready for, Spurs game get-togethers, Dee's softball games, boring nights that turned out fun at Chili's..... booooooooooooo.

Okay so my digital camera is dead. It's broken. It's gone. I'm so sad. What's a "picture person" without her digi? Grr.
Anyway, summer has been really extra mega fun. Tuesday we decided to be extra spontaneous and I'm not exaggerating when I say "EXTRA". I'll just skip to the end of the night when we stole my dad's golf cart and peeked into Kristan's bedroom. haha. We kidnapped Kristan and she brought her digital camera and the night ended with frizzy hair, smeared eyeliner and dirty barefeet.
Last night we all went to Bianca's house. Gladly, there was not any drama and I think it's because everyone has just been able to put the past behind. I was really happy to see old high school friends and I think all of the girls I saw last night got even prettier than before. ;D
So anywho.. on another note... I HAD this best friend. He was seriously, SERIOUSLY the nicest and sweetest BESTEST OF BEST guy friend that I've ever had. His hair was big and curly and blonde and I loved the way he laughed. Anyway, this friend of mine just changed. There are reasons why and I guess one is that we decided to like each other at different times which eventually just ruined our special friendship. I miss him sometimes and the way he used to be around me.. silly, sensitive and sweet... but I don't think things will ever be the same again. Second semester he decided to become a different person and smoke all the time and sleep with random girls. No more late night walks from Starbuck's, or milk and cookies or crazy wrestling or Dave Chapell nights. It's all over. My friends in Austin don't like him for me, or don't like him at all for that matter. Everything happens for a reason though... and joel once said: "Don't put a question mark where God has put a period." ;]
Mint tonight, beach tomorrow. Bye!-carol

| i spilled my coffee it went, all over your clothes..I gotta wear mine now. |
[13 May 2005|01:22pm] |
So every morning it's been coffee, grandma's house and pancakes. I finally finished unpacking everything yesterday and I semi have all that summer school crap out of the way.
I'm really not used to this weather, it's kind of stressful. I hate to be a whiner about it, but really, you can't compare a pretty day in Austin to a pretty day down here. ;P
It feels so weird to be done with everything. I feel like there's still stuff for me to do, but now its just time to relax.
I've been searching for a new dog and I've become reeeally picky. I think it's harder to find the "perfect dog" than it is to find the "perfect boy". Agh it's so annoying.
anyone have any suggestions?.............

I can't stand not talking!!!
everyone ALWAYS wants what they cant have. seriously
whether its
that discontinued lipstick that you never wear but when you find out its discontinued you're devastated.
or
those BCBG pumps that mommy said you just COULDN'T HAVE and then when you buy them you wear them once and decide that they don't do anything to your legs.
I'll post my spring break pictures later. So much to do and so little time.

So i had to finish up a baby skirt and a button hole yesterday for my sewing lab. Everything was going grreeeeat until I sliced my finger with a blade trying to make a hole for the button hole. GR. So I quickly told my professor what happened who told me to stick my bleeding finger in a bag of ice. I didn't think that sounded right but my mommy wasn't there to take care of me and my professor was the closest thing to my mom. So she told me to walk down to the Student Service Building (with my finger in the bag of ice) and when I got there the receptionist freaked out because I had my finger in ice. So she told me to take it out because I was going to get frost bite and I did but little did I know that I would soon be in the WORST pain of my life. OMG it was horrrribleeeeeee. My whole night last night was spent at the stupid Student Health Center where I spent 3 in a half hours WAITING. I didn't even see the doctor, I was so mad. SO yeah...
It is the most difficult thing ever.. being one finger crippled. :P I had to do laundry today.. now that was hell.
Okay i haaate rainy days! They make me so freakin despressed. I WANT the suuun!!!!
I want SPRING BREAK! ;] I want my bathing suit that should be coming in any day now! I want to go to sleep, thats what I want to do. Were supposed to all go watch a movie tonight, hopefully that'll take my mind off my poor finger. I can't wait til Thursday... the OC, sushi and 6th. ah, I can't wait cant wait can't wait!!!!
