“Lucky Charms are like the vampires of breakfast cereal. They’re magical, they’re delicious, they’re a little bit dangerous and bad for you. They initially make you feel great, but then over time you realize that maybe your relationship with Lucky Charms is just a little bit unhealthy and you start to think, ‘Maybe I don’t want to be in a long-term relationship with a breakfast cereal that tastes delicious but damages my health.’ But then the Lucky Charms gets all stalker on you and for some reason you kind of like that. It makes you feel special. So yeah, you spend your life with Lucky Charms. That’s awesome. That’s a great way to… get diabetes.”

Life Gets Kinda Boring
I feel guilty for not studying, because honestly, this is this girls job: to teach me physics, and I’m doing no work to back it up. I’ll figure I’ll just say I totally forgot everything about electricity and ask her to teach it to me, and then mention that we’re doing fluid mechanics and thermodynamics, neither of which I understand, so that she’ll go through that really quickly. I figure I can get rid of her by at least 9 and then I’ll do some calculus studying while watching dr who, then history at 1030, then bedtime. Healthy amounts of sleep tonight! woooot
FOOOOOOOD
and then i fail at physics.
is it bad that im sort of shipping kurt/finn?
Finn WILL be singing "Jesse's Girl."
Epic. They can’t have Rachel date a guy named Jesse and not have Finn sing that song.
lmfao, bad pun in my opinion. still cute though.
“I didn’t want my picture taken because I was going to cry. I didn’t know why I was going to cry, but I knew that if anybody spoke to me or looked at me too closely the tears would fly out of my eyes and the sobs would fly out of my throat and I’d cry for a week. I could feel the tears brimming and sloshing in me like water in a glass that is unsteady and too full.”
