False Alarm!

Hi Everyone again!
Wow two posts in one day. So anyway, my computer is back to normal. It was very strange because I just took out the battery, then put it back and magically it worked! I'm so happy. Although as soon as I checked my email my professor sent a mass email saying we could use our notes for the final this morning. Which is a relief because I thought everyone was cheating. I should get an A for effort.
Well I must go now again! I hope everyone is doing swell and have a great day!

Some sad news or good news depending on how you look at it

Hello everyone!
I just wanted to let everyone know that I will probably be very very late in getting back to emails because my computer has decided to completely crash. I mean it will not even turn on. I thought-fiddlesticks. So now I will simply be checking emails at Brooks which might explain the tardiness.
I think it was a curse the cat put on the place.
Other than this, I suddenly felt an explosion of creativity and have decided to use Juicebox as a minor character in a book. Don't worry I had a long talk with him about it when he returned from the Channel Islands and he said it was okay. I wanted written documentation but he can't write. He's doing well. He came back early from his vacation because of the rain and the fact that he really didn't get along with the seals. Snowball is doing somewhat well. She keeps running out in the rain. She started dancing the other day and I pretended I didn't know her. A cat doing the macarena? Not a pretty picture. In any case, she kinda smells now. Well-I must go-homework calls just until the end of the week.

Hi everyone!

I hope everyone is have a decadent December. Yes, Christmas is in the air-the lights are streamed on the trees lining State Street. Carolers are around every nook and cranny. Tourists are doing Christmas shopping with Santa Barbara t-shirts and depression has finally set in. It seems that every person I've talked to (and these are real people) has been depressed. Which begs the question, what is it about the holiday season that makes people sad? Should we blame it on Hallmark? Or the fact that people have a certain annoyance of the color green? Maybe people just hate giving gifts and getting them. Or maybe it's that we don't look forward to yet another reason to see our family-who knows.
I have some good and bad news though. Juicebox is going away for a week with Trip to the Channel Islands. Trip is very outdoorsy so he is looking forward to some hiking. I will make sure Juicebox packs an inhaler! He asked me if there were any peach smoothies on the islands, I told him I don't think so. He's determined to find one. He said lemurs can make a pretty mean smoothie.
Let's see, what else? Does anybody have any good new years resolutions? I came up with two, let's see if they'll last longer than a week. One is to email people as soon as I get their emails instead of a month later. The second one is to be more organized with my photography. I've got tripods coming out of my eyeballs! (Not really, that would be odd) Well I should go now and work on homework, in other words more procrastination!
Hope everyone is having a great day! Have fun!

New Additions

Hello Everyone!
I have some big news! It's so big my heart's rolling in my chest. There are two new additions to my family. I know what you are thinking-no I did not get pregnant that one drunken night in Antarctica nine months ago. Instead I have adopted again. This time it is a Jade plant named Jade (I know very creative) and a cat named Snowball (bet you can't guess what color she is). I'm sure many of you are wondering how Juicebox is handling this. He's been an only child for....5 years now.
I would love to tell you he hugged Snowball and smiled at Jade but that would be a lie. I thought he was hugging Snowball but it was actually Juicebox strangling her. As for Jade, I asked him to water Jade yesterday and he added a liquid alright-urine. It was not his finest hour. So today I had to go to UCSB yet again (I feel like I should enroll there) and I only took Juicebox because I thought we needed to talk. And you'll never guess what we saw-two women going at it by the arts building. Juicebox jumped up for joy while I walked in the other direction.
I set up my camera and saw Juicebox was over with the lesbians talking. He told them about how he was a homosexual too and then he talked about Trip. Then the lesbians invited him on a double date. I never did have the talk with Juicebox though because he kept talking about what he was going to wear on his date (then I informed him that he is always naked). As for now, I'm trying to keep them as far away from eachother as possible.
Hope everyone is having a swell day!

Break from Homework

Hello Everyone,
I'd planned on typing a blog yesterday but unfortunately homework called and I had to answer. And unfortunately I showed my professor my pictures and unfortunately more reshoots! But hey practice makes perfect!
So due to alot of pent-up anger and the fact that it was cloudy so I could not work on more reshoots, I decided to see a movie. So I saw "Quantum of Solace" finally! I give it two thumbs up. I'm so glad they kept Vesper in the storyline! This one though was much more Bondy (is that a word) than "Casino Royale." I wondered though if that necklace is still in Russia? Wouldn't that be nifty? I was going to bring Juicebox but he doesn't like movies with heterosexual couples. It makes him very uncomfortable as many of you know. Too bad because he would've loved the chases!
Don't worry he still had a fun day! Luckily he was able to check out the new club in town specifically for single Koalas. He's been bouncing off the walls ever since and he can't stop talking about this koala named Trip. I haven't met him yet though. Juicebox wants to take the relationship slow, unlike all his other ones. Well I have to go-he has scissors in his paw and the blades are getting close to his head! AAAAHHH!

Thanksgiving

Hello Everyone,
This'll be a nice short blog. I just wanted to wish all my bloggers a Happy Thanksgiving, although now it's Friday so everyone already had Thanksgiving. In any case, I am in Auburn with an overcast sky and will most likely see a children's movie.
Oh maybe the better thing is to wish every one happy Black Friday. Do you think African Americans have protested the name of today? In any case, I hope everyone is not out shopping or if you are, then bring kneepads. Juicebox wanted to go out this morning, but he didn't have his protective head gear. And you know soccer moms-he'd be squished in a second!

A Twilight day

Hello Everyone again!
Today was a very odd day. It began with church surrounded by little children and a sermon on goats and ended with screaming teenagers-but no other animals. Well church was relatively normal-I sat in back of a couple who had two children and one on the way. I really thought she was going to give birth right there, luckily she didn't. When I left, it was overcast so I figured what a great day to see Twilight.
I must tell you I really didn't want to see this movie because I kind of wanted to throw the book in the garbage at least ten times-sorry Stephanie Meyer if you are reading this, but then again if you are reading this then you aren't that famous of an author- but I went. So the theatre was literally packed to the brim with teenager girls. One of the parent's around me referred to the movie as this generations' Titanic. I thought that's going a bit overboard. The teenage girl in front of me had already seen it four times. Anyway, there was so much whistling and hoot hooting (I don't know if that's the proper word) that it was nearly impossible to fall asleep to the dull movie. When I walked out, my ears were ringing and I thought "Should've seen Quantom of Solace." In any case I can say I've seen it and I know the opinion of many swooning fifteen year olds.
Other than that, simply business law homework. Juicebox went hiking today. I hope he doesn't fall in a hole like last time! Don't worry-I gave him a rope and a walkie talkie with great range so he can call me. However I just remembered I don't talk Koala.

UCSB and Juicebox

Hello again everyone!
So I visited yet another college but this was actually for a purpose. I had to photograph a building in UCSB. My goodness what a campus. I have a feeling I would never study there. In any case, Juicebox is still a bit depressed so I decided he could come along. He jumped in my camera bag-don't worry I left an airhole for him- and we were on our way.
Now I'd been to UCSB twice before due to troublesome film and was nearly run over by bicycles so I warned Juicebox to be careful. Unfortunately as soon as I unzipped my camera bag he hopped out and walked away. I tried to catch him but Juicebox is on this new diet where it makes him incredibly fast so he was gone in a second. I let him roam around for a bit (big mistake) and took my shots (with a camera not tequila shots). I packed up my camera and then I saw him right in front of the building. He waved his furry little paw. I yelled, C'Mon Juicebox. Time to go."
He scurried over to me and unfortunately did not look both ways when crossing the street and caused a Japanese college student to fall over. Juicebox quickly ran towards me, jumped in the camera bag and we were on our way. As for the college student, she's alright. No cuts or bruises. I think she was more surprised to see a running koala than anything else. Well, hope everyone is having a splendid day. Blog you soon!

What ever happened to Leonardo?

So I should've prefaced the previous blog with an explanation of just what happened to Leonardo. I really thought they'd be the next Ross and Rachel but alas no. So Juicebox and Leonardo did everything together, they went to the Monterey Bars and ordered peach smoothies. Leonardo would lovingly put Juicebox in a cyllindrical box. They would go mountain climbing. They spent every minute together.
Then something happened. Juicebox-as you all know has a fear of microwaves. Leonardo initally was okay with this, but then he began to crave EasyMac. One day he succumbed to the craving and surprised Juicebox with EasyMac for dinner. As soon as Juicebox put a macaroni in his mouth, he could taste the microwave. He gave Leonardo an ultimatum-either him or the microwave.
They spent a day apart. Juicebox was so annoying that day because he was constantly talking to me about how much he missed Leonardo's fur. The next day Leonardo returned and he chose the microwave. Juicebox was heartbroken. Now he can't even bear to look at a microwave.
Now, though Juicebox is attempting the club scene down in Santa Barbara. I told him if we ever play hide and seek again-he would have to return within 24 hours and would automatically win.
So now you all know....and you know why I can't have EasyMac in the house.
Well, I don't know if you all would like to hear about my day-but here it is. I have to do four, count them, four assignments by next Tuesday. So I will probably remain being antisocial this week. Other than that, I keep getting sheets for early Christmas presents. Wow-Santa must really want me to sleep! Thanks to everyone who's sending me sheets!
I really must go now-the only show I religiously watch is about to start-yay "Fringe." Joshua Jackson finally grew up (Oh Pacey) and became Mulder. Thanks for reading!

Hello everyone!

Hello everyone,
I've always wanted to join the blogging revolution so here I am. Watch out world. So why would anyone want to read this blog? You're reading it so you tell me-jk. Well, juicebox finally came back from a massive game of hide and seek. He was hiding in the bathtub drain of all places and wants his fame back so you'll be hearing alot about juicebox. For those who do not know-Juicebox is my lovable Koala who is also a homosexual. (I don't really want to type a blog of how that was figured out). He had a long term relationship with a koala from Venice name Leonardo but Leo left him because he could not handle Juicebox's fear of the microwave.
Other than reading Juicebox's rambunctious adventures, I'll attempt to tell you what's been the delio with my life. (Don't worry-I will never say delio again) As of right now, everyone knows I attend Brooks. So far it is tons of fun. I still don't like the competitive atmosphere. Make photographs not war. So I will figure out how to add photos and then you can look at them as ooh, aah, or go 'wow that sucks.'
You can also read my innermost thoughts and desires-actually no you can't because this is the internet, you don't know what kind of perverts are out there. Well I must be going now. I'm taking a break from writing the great American novel or attempting it anyway.
