google yourself

My life is not very interesting. I have been going home quite a bit on the weekends because I can't stand sitting in my apartment all weekend long by myself.. it has been driving me crazy. So I have gone home every other weekend since the beginning of the semester... like a giant loser. My thesis proposal defense is finally scheduled for next Friday. I need to make a powerpoint for that sometime this upcoming week. Other than that my progress is going slower than I would like because when I contact Sheriff's or Police Departments I seem to be the last priority on their list. I understand they are busy, but I am not asking for very much of their time!! I can't wait until the interviews are all completed so that I can do the findings of my thesis on my own schedule instead of twiddling my thumbs and hounding other people to get on the ball. Anyways, in the meantime I am bored so I thought I would do this little google thingy.

I am just using the very first one that comes up.

1. Google "[your name] needs":
"ALLISON NEEDS TO GET LAID."

How true this one is!!

2. Google "[your name] looks like":
"ALLISON JUST LOOKS LIKE SHE IS TRYING TOO HARD TO BE COOL."

This is also true... I do try extremely hard to fit in and be cool.

3. Google "[your name] likes":
"ALLISON LIKES TO WATCH MOVIES AND TELL PEOPLE WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THEM"

I love to watch movies, I don't usually over analyze them though.

4. Google "[your name] says":
"ALLISON SAYS THERE'S A REASON THAT YOU'RE NEVER HOME"

Probably because you hate me... whoever you are.

5. Google "[your name] wants":
"ALLISON WANTS TO KNOW."

I do tend to want to know things.

6. Google "[your name] does":
"I LOVE WHEN ALLISON DOES "FEELINGS" BY THREE ERIN."

I don't know that song but I could try to do it karaoke style when I'm wasted or something.

7. Google "[your name] hates":
"ALLISON HATES IT"

I don't know what "it" they were referring to, but I probably do hate it.

8. Google "[your name] can":
"HOW ALLISON CAN SURVIVE. WELL, SHE CAN'T."

I'm starting to notice a pattern of hatred to people with the name Allison.

9. Google "[your name] goes":
"AND EVERYONE KNOWS THAT ALLISON GOES TO SLEEP ALONE TONIGHT"

You know what? It's true... but F you google.

10. Google "[your name] is":
"ALLISON IS UGLY"

This is starting to hurt my feelings.

11. Google "[your name] loves"
"ALLISON LOVES FINE JEWELRY"

That's true.


Alright those answers didn't really make me mad... but I just did this cause I was bored... sorry if you read the whole thing and were bored!

flat tire... not to be confused with the delicious beverage known as fat tire


So i got out of my car on Tuesday night, after making the long journey around the block. I only drove my car so that I could switch parking from one side of the road to the other (which I have to do EVERY night) so that I wouldn't get a parking ticket. As I'm pulling up to the curb I feel and hear my car run over something. I get out and go around the passenger side to make sure my tires are okay.... They arent. I could hear the air gushing out of the front passenger tire and see a huge piece of glass sticking out the top of it.... oops. It was about 9 at night so I just let my car sit there and prepared to have a flat tire in the morning and deal with it then. I haven't changed a tired since I was in high school so I was nervous. Luckily Derek helped me yesterday. So we put the sweet donut in place of the slashed tire and I headed off to Wal-Mart. I had contacted my dad because I figured I would have to buy a new tire and I have never done that before. I've gotten my tire repaired for slow leaks plenty of times but never a hole that the air gushed out of like this, so I figured the hole would be too big to patch. So I talked to my dad and he told me to buy 2 tires instead of one, he never buys just one tire, which I figured was going to run me at least $200. I went to Wal-Mart and luckily the totally patched it for $10.17 and it's good as new! I was so excited because I thought I was going to be even more broke than I already was. Yay for Wal-Mart and for Derek helping me change my tire! AND for my dad telling me after I got it repaired that he had planned on paying for the 2 new tires anyway if I needed to get them!

when in rome

So I changed the look of my page today to pay homage to the upcoming holiday known as Valentine's Day. I've seen pink and red ads and commercials all over the place so I figured I should join the band wagon. I've noticed that people (in general) tend to either love (no pun intended) this holiday or hate it with a fiery passion from hell. I consider myself to be in the middle of this spectrum. I've never really had an awesome Valentine's Day in the romantic sense, but that doesn't really bother me. I know people say you should tell people you love that you love them everyday but I think it's nice there's a special holiday to celebrate it! I haven't had a Valentine since my senior year in high school which is kind of depressing when I actually type it out. But I'm okay (at this point in my life) with the fact that I will get a Valentine's card from my mom, dad, and grandma (and my grandma usually gives me like $20 which is always a plus!). I know that my family and friends love me, and although I don't have a significant other to spend the holiday with I'm still kind of excited about it.

Now I realize some of you may be completely dreading this holiday this year, but just remember the people that DO love you unconditionally and always will! Your lovely friends and awesome families!! 

And I'm not even sure why I am so excited about it. I honestly shouldn't be, I'm kind of a sad lonely loser if you will. Maybe it's because I have been very optimistic concerning my love life in the past few weeks, or maybe I'm just taking crazy pills.... who knows. I'll find someone out there that meets my standards and likes me back somewhere soon..... right?
