our landlady still hasn't come to pick up our rent. i am now over $1700 richer. well. subtract my own rent. i'm still over $1200 richer. eeeeeexcellent...

"i don't know what happened to the rent money... oh, and i don't know where that big screen tv with dual vcr/dvd player came from either."

ahhhh!! so many cute kids tonight! and one trick-or-treater actually hit on helen!!

so we were just sitting outside, with our garage open and us like, sitting at the outer edge of it in our little witch costumes waiting for trick-or-treaters to come by. some were sooooo cuuuute!! aaaahh!! my ovaries!! sorry. and yeah, the one who hit on helen came with like a huuuge group of un-costumed junior high kids. helen asked them, "hey! where're your costumes?" and one replied, "hi, i'm matt. i'm a traveling car salesman." and then another one said, "hey, how about you give me a kiss instead of candy?!" hahahahaha....piiiimp.

and then we met some of our neighbors. they live sort of across the street from us. the parents came by with their youngest son (a blonde, bare-footed harry potter) and introduced themselves. they were like, "yeah...our older boys are at the house scaring people in the front yard. one of them's in a coffin." and we also saw one of the guys lying stomach-down on the roof scaring people from above! and so, all night, me and helen would watch people go to that house and scream. and we laughed. and laughed. and laughed. ;D but then...around 8 pm, we decided to head back in. but helen was like, "oh, let's just wait for one last group" and so we sat outside a little more. all of a sudden, this guy walks up aiming a video camera at us and says, "you're looking lovely tonight, ladies." me and helen just looked at each other like, "uhh..." and then all of a sudden, this guy in a scary costume jumps out at us out of nowhere and screams at us. naturally, we screamed back. and, of course, it was caught on tape. turns out, it was the guys from across the street. while they were walking back laughing, i yelled back, "that was just a fake scream!! we knew you were there the whole time!!"

ahh...i love halloween. psst. i'm still in my costume. ;D

ahhh!! i'm so excited it's halloween!! i'm so excited, it's just dorky. because really, all i'm going to do is dress up as a witch and give out candy to little kids. but still!! right now, i'm making a halloween cd to play while me and helen sit in the garage waiting for trick-or-treaters. ;D

and guess what. i saw not one, but TWO naked guys on campus at price center during the costume contest. one was just completely buck-ass naked. the other was like, wearing an apron (which was sort of redundant since it had a naked male body painted on top of it) and a thong. and, actually, unlike helen, i did not stare at the completely buck-ass naked guy so i didn't see his thing (because he was covering it with his number from the costume contest). so all i saw were two naked male butts. it was still quite amusing. we were thinking the completely naked guy was supposed to be adam (he was), but we were like, "dude, he couldn't even find a leaf? how cheap is that." helen was especially amused by this one guy dressed up as bubbles, the powerpuff girl. she just couldn't stop laughing at him. that is, until he started speaking when he was onstage modeling his costume for the contest. HE WAS A CREEP. a psycho, sex offender, child porn, pervert creep!!! he spoke with this low, quiet voice and said something like, "think of me when it's your bed time." *shudders* ugh. gross. i think my favorite costume was the guy dressed up as mario. he was so funny. he even spoke like mario! "hello!! i'ma mario!! my number is-a number six but i know i am-a number one in-a your hearts!!" oh! and there were even little kids in the costume contest! there was this one kid dressed up as a pirate and when he got onstage and they gave him a microphone, he just sort of froze for like two minutes. finally, his mother goes up to him and whispers something in his ear and he goes, "ARRRR!!" into the microphone. actually, it sounded more like, "ARF!!" like a dog, but it was close enough and it was still incredibly cute. and then and then there was this little baby girl dressed up as a kitten and it was so funny because the cat head on top of her head was too heavy for her own head to support and she kept leaning forward looking like she was about to topple over. and this little baby girl was holding a whip too! it was so cuuuuuute!! it was cuz her aunt was dressed up as catwoman.

anyway, i'm going to go get ready now! i know i know, it's still really early, but i'm just a dork like that. hey, helen actually has her costume on right now!! so i'm not such a total freak. ;D okay, bye!

have a fun, safe, and happy halloween people!! i love you all!! go get high on candy!!!

9:30 pm: cherry and sanaz go completely insane and paste ernesto posters all over the hallway (and i mean ALL OVER). oh, and smack dab in front of the toilet. so you have someone staring back at you when you pee/poo.

10:30 pm: cherry and melissa go completely insane and slip packs of post-it notes under helen and sanaz's doors and run back into their rooms giggling like bratty five-year-olds (especially melissa).

i'm so bored.

i'm bored. but that's a good thing. rather be bored than in a constant state of panic like i was for the past week and a half. but that means this blog will probably be really boring and make no sense. oh well.

midterms were bad. don't want to talk about it.

but what else is there to talk about? absolutely nothing interesting has been going on in my life. still single. though there is nothing wrong with that. still have no life. definitely something wrong with that. ugh. what to do what to do. just killing time till i can go to the mall on my way to campus. need to return the hollister shirts and scarf down some burger king because their whopper is just so damn good and i've been craving it. yes, i could just go to the mall right now, but i want to limit my time there so i don't go all crazy and you know, shop. and shop and shop and shop. i know that little voice in my head will get louder and louder. you know, the one that says, "hey, you just got $20 back from the shirts! that's twenty free dollars!! spend them spend them SPEND THEM!!" and, before you know it, i'll have spent $200 instead of $20 and i'll end up on campus with an armload of shopping bags. "i don't know what happened cuz it all happened so fast!! my arms were totally moving of their own volition, just grabbing things off the racks left and right (not winona ryder style, thankyouverymuch) and then - and then the wallet came out and the credit card was slapped down and my right hand just signed like ten receipts and i was trying to control myself but i couldn't...I COULDN'T!!"

so...anyway. that's why i'm not going to the mall early. it's really a sickness, you know. shopaholism.

okay, so i really want to see the ring, but...it's just too damn scary and i can't bring myself to go (but even if i could, it's not like i have a car to go). so, naturally, to overcome my fear, i read spoilers for the entire movie. because, really, that's the only way i won't be completely traumatized by the movie. i mean, i did it for the sixth sense and when i finally saw it, i was fine. the movie wasn't ruined for me or anything; i still thought it was a really good movie. i just didn't, you know, have nightmares for weeks on end and get freaked out every time i was alone in the dark (which is like, duh, every night). so anyway, i did that for the ring, read spoilers for the entire movie. only problem is, i'm freaked out now. i haven't even SEEN the damn movie and i'm already completely freaked out. is that sad or what? curse this overimaginative brain!!

oh, you know what? i should probably be working on my honors program application. heh. uh...i'll worry about that later tonight. ;D c'mon...i haven't had a chance to relax in like two weeks.

all right, i'm really bored now. i have absolutely nothing else to talk about. so...bye!

uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugggggghhhhhh.

this sucks.

i don't want to be a spinster anymore. and i want another tattoo. i think i know what i want too. i just...have no place to put it.

and while we're at it, i want bigger boobs and a better brain too.

midterm season is quickly turning out to be really bad. three words: screwed over immeasurably. this whole school thing wasn't such a good idea. i need a contingency plan. if i had bigger boobs and, well, a nicer face and thicker hair and like, ten more inches of height and oh, some talent, i could totally just ditch san diego and run off to los angeles to become an actress/waitress. yeah...we'll just call that plan f. because there has to be at least five other back-up plans that are better than that. no, moving back in with my parents is not one of them.

okay. going back to studying now. as if that would help.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JOOOOOOOO!!!!! anna.

you sexy love muffin, you. *rowr* *makes claw hand and swipes at jo*
