I Still Have Not Seen Star Trek

I really gotta get on this.

A Valuable Lesson Learned

This is an actual quote from a video I watched in Rehabilitative Audiology class today:

"Swallowing a battery is trouble for kids"

Get psyched!

Team Wiebe!

I watched the movie 'King of Kong' for the first time last night. It was pretty great, and I highly recommend seeing it if you haven't already. You might even shed a little tear.

Good

VS.

Evil

(Billy Mitchell aka the devil)

Billy Mitchell is the worst!

Be Nice, Now

It isn't really summer until you've had your first sip of Hawaiian Punch, right?



I like punchy's google eyes.

In other, completely unrelated video news, my sister burned me a cd of this band...and I gotta say, I really like it:



The guitar sound is kinda summer-ish...sparkly? What a babe!



She likes it too.

A Hat for the Ages

According to the website, that is supposed to be a "real raccoon face."

hmm....

School's (officially) Out

Gonzo.



One week "off" before summer school and field practicum start.

As my sister so accurately informed me, "it isn't like a baby dinosaur died and you have to eat it...you just have to do your school work."

This is very true, and I will try to keep that in mind. Gotta be brave!

Oh God...

The below youtube video serves as a perfect metaphor for my life right now based on the news I just received from the clinical supervisor at temple...which is that instead of starting my diagnostic field practicum in the fall semester (as was planned) I will instead be doing this starting NEXT MONDAY.

Here is a key for the video in case there is any confusion:

Scary Puppet Show=Diagnostic Clinical Course

Scared Kid=Me

Older Brother=Shannon



I am so scared that the idea of banging a plastic chair against my head doesn't sound half bad right about now.

Thank Goodness

I am so happy right now I really could cry, I really could.

Just saw that I got a 94 on my Audiology final which really just saved my life. I'm not going to have to take this class over now! Thank the sweet lord!



Lovely.

Now I feel more motivated to study for Neuro today. Coffee time starts now!

Happy Mutha's Day

Don't forget to be sweet!

PS. Not to knock this song/video, because I love this lady, but doesn't it kinda seem like she is playing in the cafeteria section of ikea? Just sayin.

Good For a Rainy Night

...Especially if you can sip a hot toddy while you watch these two treatsies:


"Go on, git, I said"




I think the combination of whiskey + elliott smith has worked its sleepy-time magic on me. It's bedtime, fools!

Thought of the Day:

"I'm giving you the middle finger in my brain"

In other news, this may be the best Craigslist missed connection I've ever read.

For the Love of Soup!

Here is a surprisingly accurate Nickelodian-type representation of me and Stevie right at this moment:



Hint: I am NOT the Fergusson in this relationship.





He is driving me crazy!

So Pretty

I think Katie Sketch is completely amazing and I can't help wishing I could write songs like her. I wish I could find more info on her new band, Mermaids. It stinks when you get into a band AFTER they have already broken up. The Organ is on my list of bands-I-would-have-liked-to-have-seen-before-they-called-it-quits.

Here's the only thing I can find on the internet concerning Mermaids:



Also such a good one. I wish they had a website or tour dates or something!

Life Lessons

I have come to the following biting realization after hours of scholarly research and heartbreaking discovery on the topic of owls (which may or may not have been specially requested by the zoo):

Some baby owls are cute.





And some...not so much.


"Not. Again."




"Yeah that's right baby, I just don't think this is gonna work out..."



"I'll pop a cap in his ass..."


The really sad thing is that I could do this sort of thing all day.

Over and out.

You Shall Not Pass!

I would like to visit this place someday:



I think I spy a Gandalf up there in the mist.





"Huh?"
