OK, so here's my newest beef:

(Although first I have to snicker at the lady who was running on the treadmill next to me at the gym today: she kept dropping her sweat towel onto the belt, and then stopping running to lean down and pick it up. WITHOUT STOPPING THE TREADMILL!! So it was really funny, because then she would start falling off and grab the handles and try to drag herself back up, and it was quite amusing. The first time, I though, oh, well it's kinda just instinctive to try and pick something back up that you dropped, but then the second and third times I just thought "wow, she's an idiot." Also I got to the gym this morning 7 minutes after it opened (9:07). And there were already a ton of people there. Did they stand in line outside the gym so they could get their pick of machines? What the hell?!)

Anyways, Valentines' Day. What the hell is the matter with people who try to spoil it for everyone else? As Paul well knows, I am not all mushy on Valentine's Day, but I'm not going to go around and spoil everyone else's fun by bitching about how stupid of a day it is and why do all these couples have to shove it in everyone's face and I hate stupid people who have boyfriends/girlfriends and guess what I'm GLAD I don't so there and you suck.
I feel like Valentine's Day has turned into more of a day for those people than for the people who are supposed to be celebrating it. And I'm content to let them do that. Yeah, I think that you should tell someone you love them every day, not just once a year, but if they want to go out and make it special, well then, go for it. I'll go to my evening class instead and not say a word.

In the school papers they published articles about how it is better to be single anyways, for several reasons, but including that by being single you are free to find someone. Huh? Soooo...the whole purpose of being single is so that you can find someone so that you don't have to be single? Hmm. This whole thing just makes these people look like pathetically jealous desperates. Give it up for one day, guys. You can bitch more the next day.



My next one: Last night Sarah and Erin and I went to this event at Yates, which was supposed to have free kayaking and free t-shirts and best of all FREE CHIPOTLE...we got there around 7 pm (it was from 5:30-9:30, therefore 7:00 is a good compromise, right?) Hmmm...plenty of free kayaking going on (in the pool, slalom course), but no sign of food or clothing. Hmmm.... We were very hungry. And Sarah was already going to be late getting to Baltimore, so we decided to just go to Chipotle for ourselves. We get there, and as I'm standing at the register forking over my $7, a girl I know from Outdoor Ed appears and says, "I'm here to pick up the food for Georgetown!!" I yelled at her, since it was 8 pm and we had just paid money for the same food that she was holding in a box. (I was going to yell at another friend but I got Maggie first. Hehe.) Who has an event advertising free food and then doesnt have the food until 3 hours in? Jerks, that's who.
