Google Image Search

I've been pretty bored for the past 31 minutes. So I've been Googling my friends. Not many people's photos come up in the image search (except mine, ha!), so I've decided to post the most interesting photos I found!!

Check out this thing I just made

I am great at studying for Art History.

Becoming David Bowie

I don't know how long this has been out, but Target has a new line of mens clothing based on the style of David Bowie. All boys need to wear these clothes. This is awesome. "Regular Guys" shop at Target, therefore this could be the cure for the "Regular Guy" look.

David Bowie for everyone!!

Talk about a dream come true

I'm thinking this whole writer's strike won't be such a bad thing, seeing as Law & Order is suddenly playing nonstop on almost every channel.

Show us your tips

Have you ever been to a frat party?

I have.

My apartment in Athens is two blocks from Milledge Ave., aka Fraternity Row (I don't think anyone actually calls it that). So tonight, we ventured to the other side to visit some friends and partake in some perfectly legal debauchery.

Few events are depicted in movies as accurately as frat parties. But hey, they're kind of wonderful in their own way (if you consider an endless supply of Mr. Boston to be a wonderful thing).



This guy knows what I'm talking about.

We later moved on to an "Indie Rock" party, where more stereotypes were fulfilled. I overheard an argument in regards to the music on the iPod being changed without permission:
Angry Girl: "You can't just change the music! Your iPod sucks! What is that, a 20 gig? 30 gig?"


OH MY GOD! FUN!

Visiting THE LAB

Today Caroline took me and Sarah Colombo to THE LAB!


THE LAB is where Caroline counts flies for school. She feeds them, then they mate, then they give birth, then she collects virgins, and they mate some more! And the process repeats! All for the sake of curing Diabetes and/or inventing a diet pill. Go UGA!

The following are some highlights of the experience:

This room was so very very cold! This is where Caroline gets the flies (I think).

"I could snow in here!" - Sarah Colombo

Hazardous materials are a must in any good LAB...

...as are jack-o-lanterns.

Look at this beaker! Look at this lab coat!

This is the carbon dioxide machine. It knocks the flies out so Caroline can collect the virgins. If a person breathed it in they might go to sleep. Forever.

Here's Caroline doing something really scientific: looking through a microscope!

A close-up shot of Caroline collecting virgins. There weren't any.

Overall, I'd say it was a good day at THE LAB. The flies are safe in an incubator (which is the opposite of a freezer, apparently) ready to mate again so Caroline can count them.

p.s. today I found out that Lexie Grey teaches my art history class.

Helvetica and the backpack of my dreams

Hey! Guess who has decided to blog more? I'll give you a hint: It's me. Speaking of me, check this shit out:


This is me posing in front of the Helvetica poster at Athens Cine.

So what's Helvetica? It's a font. It's also a movie about a font. Er, TYPEFACE, rather, as I've learned to say instead (thanks to my Graphic Design Friends).

I loved it. It was great. I think that the other ten people in the theatre would agree. It's just so amazing to me how so much can be said about such a simple thing. Helvetica is air. We need to breathe. We need air to breathe. Therefore, we need Helvetica. I love Helvetica, for the record. Three cheers for this!

Anyway, these awesome bags by Freitag were featured in the movie. They're made out of old truck tarps. I want this backpack so badly. If only I had $244.45.
