BRRRRRR!
But it’s currently 12:51 AM and I’m still working on homework and reading I had almost 2 days to complete. SIGH.
I think I’m regrettably going to be snowbound in DeKalb this weekend (which sucks because I have plans in the city) but maybe it’s a sign that I should GET MY FREAKING HOMEWORK DONE AHEAD OF TIME.
For some reason, I think anyone who has straight short dark hair and glasses looks like Harry Potter. Thus, I’ve always thought that my dad looks like Harry Potter (although my dad now has white hair), so when he had a scratch on his forehead the other day, my sister and I took matters into our own hands. We took a red pen and made the Harry Potter scar to make him look like Harry when he is 60. Then my family went out to dinner and my dad still had the Harry Potter scar on his head. Not my problem.
I’m not sure why I find this so funny. In college my friends and I even started a facebook group called “We’ve Seen Harry Potter in Allen Hall” because there were two guys who looked just like him. My brain likes to associate fictional characters with people in real life. Also nmp because it makes life entertaining.
YOU MADE THAT GROUP?! I was totally a member, one of the guys wore argyle sweaters all the time and was in one of my environmental science (?) classes. I forget his name!
21 of them since December 12. All personalized.
side note: done with interviews!! :D
The Hush Sound will be playing two reunion shows in Chicago on February 3rd & 4th. The first night, the band will play their album Like Vines from front to back. The second night will be a fan vote setlist. You can check out all of the details below.
Best news!! It honestly didn’t feel like the holidays without a hush sound holiday show. We’ve seen them (almost?) every winter since 2006!
edit, we missed 2009:

STOP GETTING MARRIED. Or at least stop changing your last names. This is the 4th time this week someone strange has popped up on my birthday alert/feed that I didn’t recognize. (And no I won’t be sensible and just delete these people I never talk to because creeping on people you haven’t talked to since high school is the entire point of facebook!) I think I’m also a bit hypersensitive to marriage ATM in preparation for the onslaught of marriage proposal pictures that will surely be appearing in the next few weeks from xmas/new years proposals.
Also: timeline. I have no idea what this is but people sound up in arms about it. Do you think it will go back to 2004? because I’m slightly old and holy shit I’ve been on FB for 7 years.
my fabulous sister
My parents had some friends over the other night. Unfortunately I was home and had to field questions about who I was dating*, why I wanted to move to the city after school, what my sister was up to, why my sister was set on traveling the world, and what I wanted to do after my internship (um, it’s not until 2013, and you want to know what my plans are for AFTER?!).
I know I have to get old, but I never want to grow up. When you have to ask what the allure of quitting your job to travel the world is, there’s something wrong.
