To follow up with my texting annoyances rant, I would like to discuss the art of scheduling things and not scheduling things.
I am a person who is well versed in the art of both worlds. I like to be scheduled (actually booked solid) and have absolutely no plans at all. Let me explain.
When it comes to school, activities, or work, time must be scheduled out. I am always on time to my lectures and they always come first to pretty much anything. Meetings for clubs and organizations should be scheduled too. If they are not regularly penciled into your schedule, you really don’t have the gumption to get off your lazy ass and go. As for work I like a set schedule. Not this hodgepodge Fast food bullshit schedule. Every tuesday I work 2:30-5 how about that.
Now all the other time in my life is COMPLETELY unplanned and carefree. Don’t ask me on thursday if I want to get coffee on Sunday. Come on really? I have no idea what I am doing tomorrow, much less on Sunday. I plan everything usually only a few hours before I do it and thats how it has to be. Someone texted me today. “Hey do you have a few minutes to chat this morning?” I said sure thinking they would proceed with their questions. No “Can I call you in about 20 minutes.” Well if you just called in the first place (please refer to the texting rant) you could just figure out what I am doing in that instant. If I am busy 20 minutes from then, so be it. People wonder how my life is always so charismatic and fun. Well thats the secret folks. Don’t plan anything until that day. My friend and I are going to New York for spring break. All I know is we are staying with my friend at Columbia and ourflight leaves on Wednesday of spring break. Other than that my best friend and I are going to do what ever the fuck we please. If I want to go to times square and dance with a hobo, I will.
Moral of the story, plan stuff beneficial to you getting or maintaining a job, other than that fuck it and do whatever you want.
So moral of the story… important shit schedule with me.
Well what do I look for in a guy
Throughout I speak fluently in second person, so think of it as a hypothetical male figure.
1. Goal Driven
Really if you think that I am going to date someone who is going to work at McDonalds for the rest of their lives you have got to be joking. I also think that staying in ones hometown after college is a HUGE turnoff. Move somewhere new, live life, experience what other parts of the world have to offer.
2. Values Education
Education is something I highly value, if you don’t care about educating yourself, then really I cannot date you. As cliché as it sounds, education is the key to success.
3. Dresses the part
As shallow as it may sound, appearances do matter. I absolutely adore a man with style. Your mommy picking out your clothes is extremely unacceptable. (unless she has impeccable taste of course).. but really pick out your own shit.Also a man who can pull off a suit is incredibly sexy. The everyday wear is important too. Maybe some nice dark wash straight legged jeans with a button up and a pea coat. I’m really into clean cut guys if you can’t tell. Hair: please take care of it. Put a tiny bit of product in it but don’t overdo it because otherwise you look like fonzy from Happy Days or one of the members of the italian mob. If it is too long, GET IT CUT, but leave it long enough so I can play with it. Shoes are very important too. As a girl, I always say “Shoes make or break an outfit” Never ever wear dress pants with tennis shoes. These are the tennis shoes guys should be wearing: Nike/ Jordans, Laccoste, Ralph Lauren, Onasuka Tigers. Anything else… No. Other shoes vary. In addition, if they have a hole in them throw them in the garbage. Men, you need more than one pair of each kind of shoes. So overall, dress with class, like you’d be able to meet my grandma or something.
4. Friendable
Lets face it, I am a HUGE socialite. I talk to anyone and everyone. If you can’t join in and not feel awkward with people that I know, its just not going to work out. I can’t hangout with just you all the time. Also, my close friends have to like you, if they don’t.. what is the point? You are not just dating me, you are my friend too. Sit in a room with me and talk to me just like a friend. There is no way I can have sexytime every second I’m with you, it gets old after a while.
For now those are my top ideas, but I’m sure there will be more.
One of my number one pet peeves..
Texting. For some reason the phenomenon that has swept the technologically advanced world never ceases to annoy me. It is great for those people that you barely talk to and have a quick question for, but really, just call me. Calling me to ask any question takes less time than texting. Also I can multiask when I am on the phone with you, answering your simple question. Texting takes both of my hands and more of my concentration. Another bothersome text moment: texting me here when you are at my house. My texts are on silent so I don’t have to hear them going off 24/7. Get my attention when you are at my house. I could go on and on.
Next, if you a trying to have a long on going text conversation with me you must be joking. I can only reply haha and lol so many times before that gets old. I must reiterate, just call. Anyone who wants an in depth conversation will have a much better time with hearing my hilarious sacastic voice anyway.
In your right mind why would you text someone and just say hey.. What are they going to say back to you? Hey? Oh yeah I forgot people throw in the ever so popular what’s up? If you have something legitimate to say, just say it, or again call..
Finally, if I do not text you back, do not text me the same text again, I really don’t care if you send it 2 days later. It obviously wasn’t that important because you didn’t call. Immediate responses don’t come by text either. I am neither a bored 7th grader, nor that girl on true life who developed carple tunnel from texting too much. I am not a slave to texts. Most likely I am doing something more interesting than answering your hey text..
So overall some people are great texters and will respond in an instant. I on the other hand am a terrible texter, so call instead
:)
Let’s face it kids, the weather in wisconsin is a little less than normal. It is currently 46 degrees in my hometown and the temperature is currently rising. What happened to the days when I was in elementary school and we got more than one snow day!? Or my sophomore year in high school, when we got two “cold days” a week after Christmas Break. As much as no snow and cute shoes throughout the winter instead of ugly boots have come to benefit me, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. We haven’t even been in the single digits this winter. Lucky for us Wisconsinites, the mosquitos are going to eat us alive come summer. Well mother nature, treat us well please and thank you.
If a man ever told you that you were not hot enough to date, would you still love him?
Apparently I would. This guy that I have built up a substantially decent friendship with since June, told me one night over Skype that I would he would only date me if I “got hot”. He also said, I have the sexiest, most fuckable mind, but he still won’t date me because I’m not a supermodel type of girl. I have been to the gym multiple times over this break just to lose some pounds, but why should I have to for a guy who clearly loves my personality, but not my body. I don’t know why I still love him, or put up with his bullshit. It just makes me feel not pretty at all. I wouldn’t say I am a 10 but I am at least above a 5. I guess Ill just let him fuck my mind, but I don’t know where his penis will go..
I was really upset when I couldn’t venture to the Rose Bowl in Pasadena California, but then I realized that saving 600 dollars on a flight and 150 each night on I was there on a hotel room, it really was a blessing in disguise. I mean don’t get me wrong, Badger games are in my blood, but with out the green, I couldn’t even be at Madison to begin with. Not to mention, we lost for the second year in a row. At least Montee Ball and Jared Abberderis will be around next year. I still am Bucky Faithful and don’t intend on stopping anytime soon. <3
