I never thought I’d say that I actually really, really miss school. I remember being in high school and absolutely hating the thought of going back to school. Of course, this could be due to the fact that my high school was an absolute shit hole. But whatever. Past is past. As of yesterday, there’s only one month left before the fall semester begins. Excellent. If people would actually hire me (it’s so hard getting a job when a. you’re out of the country for most of the summer, and b. you’re taking too many hours), I’d get a part-time job. During the spring semester, I’m going to work my ass off to get someone to hire me. Screw the freshmen, give the upperclassmen those jobs at the library. Or something.
No, really. It would be great to be able to save up spring semester and actually be able to afford an apartment for my last two years of college. But with an economy that’s still trying its damnedest to recover, and all the jobs that would normally be reserved for younger students being taken up by older people, it makes finding a job all the more difficult.
I tried watching Dumb as Bat Shit Morons Sitting in a House, Having Sex Big Brother US this year. I really did. And I honestly didn’t get past the first two episodes. Even with the live feed going, Allison’s dumb ass seems to have completely lost the plot. Stop putting into that house complete morons whose only accomplishment in life is being able to scream into a camera while giving a diary room entry. And for christ-sake, stop putting in gay men who are nothing but complete stereotypes. Have we ever actually had a gay man in Big Brother that wasn’t a walking-talking billboard for the most obvious generalizations of our kind? Let’s see… Bunky, Marcellas, Will, Beau, Dustin, Joe, Joshua (*cringe*), Neil, Steven (who would later become an adult-film actor), Kevin, and now that abortion of a housemate Ragan. Fucking hell, CBS. Fire that dumb bitch and hire someone who knows how to cast a group of individuals who didn’t take remedial classes in high school. Jesus.
Thank the lord Big Brother UK is still brilliant, and will probably go out with a loud, resounding bang. My predictions for a final six (although I really think a final five is large enough, if not too large): Josie, John James, Mario, Corin and Ben. Watch either Corin or Josie win it all.
Oh, and apparently there’s a storm outside. Something about a tropical storm coming into Louisiana. Or God’s just uber-pissed off at Mississippi at the moment. I don’t know. I haven’t been paying attention at all to the news or weather since I returned to America. So this is news to me.
On the bright side:
….is it fall yet?
