the awkward moment when.....

it's my favorite blogging day, BACK after a much too long hiatus.

the thing is that, other then taking a break, nothing awkward has happened.

this leads me to believe ONE THING:

awkward moments happened when school is in session.

note: what you're about to read,

are things that have happened

over the last TWO WEEKS.

...when, on the first day of class, your teacher tells you that he is going to go over what goes on in the class and then says that "ya'll are going to do something at the end of class that you never woke up thinking you were going to do." and then the fright sets in......

...when "what we never woke up expecting to do" in class was having him reading a children's book to the entire class as if we were four. yep, NOT expecting that.

...when your class mate has on a inappropriate shirt. seriously, who wants to see THAT on someones shirt. honestly.

...when your spanish teacher is freakishly good at remembering everyone's names after ONE CLASS.

...when there is a new printing system at work. it's had some glitches.....and it's been interesting.

...when there is a new student in class and she starts asking you about the class. what was awkward about this? the fact that she asked if the teacher was straight or not.

...when you learn that one of your teachers listens to Beyonce'. yeah i know that's not a big deal, it just struck me as odd. i mean COME ONE. every student has this vision of teachers NOT listening to the same music they do. not that i listen to Beyonce' in particular, i'm just sayin...

...when you learn how obnoxiously happy Hello Kitty is. really. SHE IS REALLY HAPPY.

...when you practically pull out a clump of hair from your head. all i was trying to do was remove my pony tail holder...and it got stuck.

...when you're walking back to your car with an umbrella, and it ALL YOU CAN DO not to start dancing like you're Fred Astaire. i really had the urge to but i was walking past a building with windows. people could probably see me. not going to dance like Fred Astaire for them today.

...when your teacher doesn't finish spelling something on the white board because she is getting pumped about what she is teaching.

...when you try to fill up your water bottle while the lid is still on. it doesn't work folks, in case you were wondering. IT DOESN'T WORK.

things that make me laugh.

hey ya'll!

i have more funny pictures. if you have seen me in the library that i work in, then you probably have caught me laughing at my desk. these are VERY FEW of the reasons why i laugh.

confession: i have a folder on my computer dedicated to funny pictures such as these.

if i'm not working on homework, it's because i'm on pinterest, looking at these comical pictures.

confession: i ALSO have a board on pinterest dedicated to funny pictures such as these.

why you ask? for i dearly love to laugh

enjoy.

love me some jim halpert.

ridiculous

very true

if light shown out my bum, i would never be glum.

because i am forever hunting for elephants in WALMART. SERIOUSLY.

dear future baby,

please make this face while i kiss

your soft-as-your-bum cheek.

darn straight

instruct, instruct, instruct me how to douglas.....get it???

i WILL do this to someone when listening to the song.

not the fire part, but the face part

A VERY. FINE. LINE.

i know. crazy right?

i have nothing else to say.

*in a british accent* and it shall be grand!

and what a happy place that would be.

yep. you got those lyrics HEAD ON.

let's hope for choice B.

letters to my classes: psychology

here is another letter to my past school subject.

(oh by the way, i didn't fail art history. YES!)

psychology is one of those subjects, that sounds interesting and is interesting, but then again it's not all at the same time.

dear psychology,

you also gave me grief. while you were interesting, and while i studied by bum off for exams on yourself, you still lacked with the understanding department. i also don't understand why i sometimes felt like i was in biology class, with the talks on the parts of the brain and the birds and the bees......lucky for you i will not be majoring in psychology.

maybe you'll have better respect for the next batch of students.

sincerely,

caroline, the unamused.

the awkward moment when.....

ahh. finished with finals. it's a sweet sweet feeling. VICTORY IS MINE. now i just have to wait for grades. yucko.

and now we are now back on the right path.

....when you are walking down the steps of the library, and you almost miss a step, and instead practically fly off the steps. shockingly, while i thought i was going to die, i managed to land on my feet and play it cool...kinda.


....when a student hands you something while yawning and talking. AT THE SAME TIME. sorry sir, i don't know what you said. you overestimate my interpretation skills.


...when someone walks into the bathroom and let's out a big SIIIGGGH. hahaha. pretty relieved to have made it to the bathroom, are we now?

....when CHOCOLATE COVERED BACON is actually almost as good as people have made it out to be. it really is. but it is equally as strange. not gonna lie.


....when you're being a studious student, and studying in the library and you movie your foot on the wood chair in a way that makes it sound like you LET ONE RIP, ifyouknowwhatimean *wink wink wink*. and it's awkward enough that it was my foot moving on wood. THAT IS ALL.oh and it happened more then once. but it's not like i would let one rip in the library. GOSH DANG IT.

....when one of your friends have reached a point or delerium were they start smelling their own shoes and feet. BUT it was 11:30 at night, soooooooo......


....when some dude walks by with a look of constipation on his face. it was weird. i mean seriously. THE BOY LOOKED CONSTIPATED.

....when some who is waiting for their print job, and when told to cross his fingers, LITERALLY CROSSES HIS FINGERS. wow.

...when you have a massive brain explosion (not just a brain fart, but a BRAIN EXPLOSION; much worse then a brain fart, let me tell you) and you can't remember how many nickel are ina dollar. the even more awkward thing about it is the fact that i had to ask my boss for help. she probably thought i was crazy. *sigh* thankfully i'm finished with school for at least a month right? RIGHT?

....when you get an email about new documentaries and get super excited. "oh oh! there's one about facebook! weeeee!

letters to my classes: art history

hello my dear friends.....it has been awhile, no?

well as i stated in my last post, i have been MIA simply because of stupid finals. annnd...not many awkward moments have happened because of that. although finals are pretty awkward themselves, eh?

anyways, i thought it would be fun to do a couple posts to these particular subjects that i have been taking, just to explain how i feel. this will call for a few posts today to make up for lack of post-ege, if you will.

who's excited??? ME.

alrighty....my first letter is toooo.....ART HISTORY. the worst subject known to man.

(note: now if you like art or majored in this when you were in college,

please don't take offense. i really DID NOT enjoy this class AT ALL. )

back story:

when i first applied for college (UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA-BEAUFORT) i applied for studio art, because i was hoping they had something in photography (something which i loved at the time and still enjoy now), like most of the colleges i had looked at. well, i finished the app, ready to turn it in, and there was something called, the dreaded "application fee". it was at least 50 bucks. crazy right? yes. so i had to request a fee waiver.
anyways, i went and visited again, just to tour the school and on this particular day they were offering to scratch the application fee if you applied then. so i did.

when i got to the end of orientation a few months later, i was given my class schedule. it had all the classes a freshman studio art major would take, including ART HISTORY. i explained about the whole app thing, and so we ended up picking and choosing some freshman courses. being the DUMB DUMB that i am, i saw the art history course and thought to myself "oh hey, ill leave that one on there. it looks interesting." IT ISN'T. no one bit interesting.

and so this leads me to the letter i wrote on facebook the weekend before my exam.

dear art history,

before i get back to studying, i wanted to let you know something. YOU HATE ME. and i hate you. but you're not making this easy. you make me cry (literally) and think that i will fail (which is a possibility). so, if i do have to take you again, please try as hard as you can and not cause me so much grief. i thought we could be friends, but from the looks of it, that's NEVER GONNA HAPPEN.

i hope i never see you again

sincerely,

Caroline,
you're unsatisfied participant.
