Welcome to PARKING HELL!

I have never run into any parking issues since attending ASU, but today was the day to turn every terrible parking nightmare I have heard into reality. My usual comfy, shaded, EXPENSIVE parking structure at the Fulton Lot greeted me this morning with this simple, but equally disturbing sign "No more tickets!" (I added the exclamation point... the sign was, in fact, NOT yelling at me; it was quite polite to be honest).
In my dismay, I tried to think of all the other places I could possibly sit my car for five hours w/o getting a ticket. Burger King? Zia? The dreaded student lots in China (they're not located there really, but they might as well be)???
I prepped myself for a long hike to work as I relentlessly drove around ASU hoping for a miracle... and then it came. The Rural parking lot was not only still open, they had the first level completely free and it is $4 dollars cheaper than Fulton!
You can imagine my excitement when I parked my sweet, blue baby into a shaded parking spot where it can rest and graze for the five hours I must be away doing the 9 to 5 (except not). I must say, the Rural parking lot is surprisingly comfortable. It may be a trek, but at least it was reliable in my time of need.

The Louis Vuitton of parking structures...

Vs.
The China town knock off, but equally as good Rural parking structure...As you can see, don't judge a book by it's cover... or in my case, parking structures.

Bad News Bears

So my dad came up to me today and stated that he wishes to convert our spare room into an office and that he would appreciate it if I cleaned the room for him. It's a normal enough proposition, right?

Normally I would be compliant and help a brotha' out, but when your spare room looks like this...










You tend to rethink your options. Granted, most of this mess is mine okay, all of it but there is no way I will be able to clean this monster on my own. I was thinking of recruiting some choice and trustworthy help (i.e. the guys that do our front yard), but I not only do not have the funds for such labor but I also do not think the 'pops would be down with strangers in our home.
I was also pondering putting everything in the closet and just pretending I cleaned, but I know that one fateful day my father will decide he wants to use the closet for something industrious and I will be back to square one.

So it's back to contemplating and evaluating how long it will take me to clean this room... I say a month.


And a sad, sad month it will be...

Mamma needs a new haircut.

I decided last year to grow out my hair for a good cause (http://www.locksoflove.org/). I set the prospective date to November in order to allow my luscious locks to grow, but now I am regretting said decision. My hair is morphing into a rats nest of monstrous proportions.
If it were a marriage between two people's hair, it would be this...

Mishca Barton (post OC)


and Mary-Kate Olsen (minus the scary headband and kimono)

I'm so close to throwing in the towel and abandoning all hope...
But on the plus side, here is my light at the end of the tunnel.

Not Nicole Richie... the haircut. Just in case you were pondering what I meant by "light."

5 more months, patience, and a nice trim to the bangs and split ends should suffice until then. Sigh.

Nightmare on Cullumber St.

It is customary/habit for me to fall asleep with the T.V. on. Mostly because I need noise in order to catch my "z's." Why not music you say? Because music cannot make your dreams as interesting as the T.V. can.

But when you wake up to this...









And have dreams like this...













It makes you rethink your habit.
Therefore, music it is.

All work and no play makes Krista a BORED girl.

I am currently at work (and sick!), obviously on the computer, doing absolutely nothing of importance... and I'm bored. But I DID find some pretty sweet things on the interwebs to kill some time.

If you're a Starwars nerd, this site will be literal heaven for you.

I learned some obscure facts that make me feel like even more of a loser than before.

Bored? Then look up things to do while you are bored. That's what I did... it seems so obvious.

P.S. Don't try the blinking one, it hurts your eyes hardcore.

Do you want to know how incredibly white you are? Here's the site for you.

So, on a side note, Bre got baptized! I'm super psyched about that. We don't have any pictures yet, but I will be sure to post as soon as we do.

On another side note, school is over in 2 months!!! This year has gone by so slow its pathetic, but summer is a'coming and that means RIVER!!! CAMPING!!! SLEEPING IN!!! And the most epic of all...A VACAY TO HAWAII (hopefully, if everything pans out as expected).

I just realized how incredibly dull my life is... I have nothing to update, no fun stories to share, and no pictures to put up. Oh well.

New Pictures...

Bomb-diggity.




Goodbye.

Some More Good Times

Enjoy.

I stole some of these pictures from Allyssa and Bre's myspace... Thanks guys for allowing me to be a thief.

Here is the movie I wanted to put up from July at my Mom's House.

Farewell.

Self loathing...

I hate my computer class... for realzies. We have these assignments due every week that make me want to take a machete to my computer. Eh, ONE MORE MONTH.

Toodles.

Latest Discoveries...

Enjoy.

Not very good quality, not to mention its a collection from different videos, but FANTASTIC song.


Other than that, absolutely nothing has happened. I was sick for four days, went to my friends pre-mish party, and have been spending 24/7 with my bestie Allyssa... dull, dull, DULL.

So, I got a new job...

It's actually not that new... I just haven't written in a while. Anywho, I work at the PoliSci office at my college and I get asked about 20 times a day IF I am voting and which candidate I prefer. I have officially developed this habit where I tell them not only do I NOT prefer either one of the candidates, but I am not registered so I cannot vote. The look on their faces is PRICELESS...


Its election day, and I am following the polls carefully... I wish they had awesome superbowl'esque commercials during the election, that way I wouldn't have to sit through five minutes of complete boredom. Add an element of ridiculousness in there for gosh sake.

Anyways, I still cannot for the life of me figure out how to get those pictures up onto my blog so I might have to make a whole new slide show which is a pain in my arse because those took me long enough to complete, and I already posted SOME of the pictures so I guess I can make a watered down version of the original... but like Loreal says, its worth it.

On a even more random note... I loathe guys that wear pink shirts to make a statement. I get it, you are comfortable with your sexual orientation, is the shirt necessary to broadcast this? I'm only saying this because the annoying kid in my English class decided to be "brave" and wear a pink shirt to class... and decided to be even more "brave" and tell everyone in the class that he is wearing the stupid shirt to make a statement. All I could think of was how incredibly lame this guy is. And it is true, this kid is the epitome of lametron.



I cannot wait for this movie!

Yes, I am a Twilight nerd, and I have no shame.







I bid you farewell.
