depression hurts



The closing of my last entry just reminded me of the funniest thing that has happened to me through Google Chat--referred to as gchat. This is a conversation I had with my sister. The reason why I say "depression hurts" to begin with is not something I am willing to mention.


me: depression hurts

Amanda: yes it does
physically and mentally
and not just you emily
those around you too
it hurts everywhere
and you should ask your doctor
about some pills
hahahahahaha

me: hahahaha WOW, you're good

Amanda: i know right?
:D

me: i'm impressed
:D

So, whenever I say "depression hurts" (I say it a lot) I am referencing a commercial about depression and some kind of depression medication (Cymbalta--see photo). And when I said it to Amanda, she recited like the whole stinkin' commercial. She's amazing. I love her. AND CAN'T WAIT TO SEE HER!!! So, now that I have told all my friends about this conversation, Leica and Vanessa always start reciting the commercial.

I took my Comms 101 final today in the JSB auditorium. I wish my story ended here, but it does not. I study nearly a solid two days for this final and then I go to take it and it's all weird 'cause it's not in the testing center. So, I go into the auditorium and find a seat, sit down, and realize there is no desk thing attached to it. I get up and look around for another seat, making sure that it has a desk thing attached to it. This one girl gets up from her seat and puts the desk thing down so i decide I will just take her seat. I climb past some people and sit down. I'm all ready to take my test and then I encounter problems because my jacket is so big and uncomfortable. While attempting to take it off I mange to hit the guy next to me with my elbow and he laughs a little--probably at my awkwardness. Then, halfway through the test--100 questions, took me 26 minutes--I fiddled with my earring and DROP THE BACK. It falls into my lap and I reach for it, but the more I reach, the further it goes and then it's just awkward and the guy next to me (who I hit with my elbow) looks at me like "What the crap are you doing?!" and I stop. I decide that I am just going to get it when I leave. I finish my test and while attempting to keep my seat from popping back up into a vertical position--so that I can grab my earring back--I manage to drop my pencil and, naturally, I say (a little too loudly) "Uh oh!" and the guy next to me (who I hit with my elbow) looks at me like he's officially decided I am a crazy person. I find my pencil underneath the seat of the guy next me and grab it. I gather my things--after giving up on finding my earring back--and leave. I end up getting only an 85 on the final, but the thing I am most bummed about is MY STUPID LOST EARRING BACK. This is me depressed, ladies and gents. And, you know what? Depression hurts.

ghost of a good thing


Ghost of a Good Thing by emchien

So this is my new obsession, Polyvore.com. At the website you can create outfits by dragging and dropping. Get photos from anywhere on the web and use them in your outfits. Jumble them all together and this is what you get: an awesome anyday wear outfit that I am completely in love with. Yes, I put this together, and, yes, I put outfits together better on here than for myself in a store. Oh, life. This is what I do when taking breaks from studying. Because, I tend to go on five hour study rampages and need a break every now and then so that I can breath a little and now end up asleep on a chair in the Brimhall.

cap ou pas cap?


Love Me If You Dare is an amazing movie. granted, I wanted to scream at the end, but it was still quite lovely. It's twisted and in french, but Julien is HOT (yes, all caps) and it's adorable, hands down. I watched it for my french class because we need four cultural activities-two can be movies-and this was one of them. I seriously recommend it to anyone...okay, maybe not anyone, but still. Guys, you probably won't enjoy it as much, but you should still give it a try. LOVELY MOVIE. The end.

P.S. The guy is hot...wait, did I already say that? :D Think a young, FRENCH, Patrick Dempsey. Dreamy. ;P
