Kinda wish I had this on my iPod.

…a couple of quotes I’ve collected in my lecture notes. (Wow, that totally rhymes!)
“What views of Maya social organization and social life do we have? Fortunately we’ve got a lot. Unfortunately, they’re not the kind of things that make sexy documentaries.” -Dr. Cameron Wesson, during Prehistoric Archeology
“I don’t care about your childhood,...
I probably should be, I don’t know, studying for German (which starts in less than 35 minutes), but whatever. In other news, Vermont is Vermont. We have snow and cold. Clearly, we are the winners. Also, apparently we are set to make the top 10 list of snowiest winters ever (we’re at 90 inches now, and we need 100… I’m sure we can come up with another 10 inches in like...
Relationship Status lulz
alisonsthoughts:
Yesterday out of boredom, I changed my relationship status from single to nothing. Like where it usually says relationship status, there is nothing there. But, Facebook decided to send out a little status on me saying “Alison is no longer listed as single.”
By Facebook doing this, my phone almost died.
Not even 5 minutes after that was sent out, I got 3 text messages asking...

Weird Dream #5409569
sparklypoo:
I had a dream last night. It was one of the weirdest dreams I ever had.
I was taking a self-defense course, with Danny DeVito as the instructor. He was really tan, shirtless, and had long, billowing curls of grayish hair. And a little moustache.
We were practicing a “real-life” situation in some sketchy dark alley, and he stands in front of me, (the dude’s like, 4 feet high)...
Counter Person: “Hi sir, how are you today? Is there something I can get for you?”
Customer: “Fish.”
Counter Person: “Well, you sure came to the right place. What kind of fish would you like?”
Customer: “Dead fish.”
Counter Person: “…”
Don’t be afraid to be a fool. Remember, you cannot be both young and wise. Young...

Dream
alisonwashere:
I am going to attempt walking on my treadmill while studying for my AP German midterm and watching a rerun of The Real World:Brooklyn.
Wish me luck.
Oddly enough, I do the same thing. Like, a lot. For whatever reason, I really get a kick out of doing like 4 things, at least 3 of them productive, at the same. I can’t even count the amount of times I’ve done stuff...
My college essay, so far. Whuddya think? D8
sparklypoo:
I’ve always wondered where life would take me.
You see, never in my eighteen winters, springs, summers, and autumns on this earth have I had the desire to live a “normal” life. In fact, on some occasions I would deliberately stray off the path that my peers tread. (I called this apparent affliction “defiance.” My parents called it “stubbornness.”) By stepping away from the assembly...

Female audience member: Mr. Colbert, have you been fucking Matt Damon?
Stephen Colbert: Why? Did his dick taste like me?
sara: where the fuck did this come from D: ?
mer: well, it came from stephen colbert's mouth. specifically before recording that night's show. but my actual source is from celebritywit.com, which I found through overheardinnewyork.com. I thought it was good, because I love the whole f***ing Matt Damon thing a lot. For reference, see:

“Marx really wanted people to take it to the streets!” -Tom Macias*, Sociology
“On Tuesday we have no class. Which is good, because I will be celebrating with all my friends the fact that we will not have to associate the United States with instability and Texas.” -Frau Theresia Hoeck**, German

“A source familiar with the situation, however, told CNN the pilot reported a double bird strike, but it was unclear whether that meant birds in both engines or two birds in one engine.”
