McDonalds is Hell

Hey lovelies! Long time no see!
I have been so incredibly busy here, like to the point of not-so-implied tears.
As you may know, I go to Ellsworth Community College. I didn't know that college can be so stressful, especially when you add a job to it. That's right boys and girls. Shianne has a job. At everyone's favorite diabetes-inducing establishment: McDonalds. And might I say. It's not as bad as I thought it would be, as long as you know what you're doing. Which I don't. I've only wanted to commit suicide 3 times (WHOOO!).
Besides that, I also managed to shatter my computer screen. Where it's still usable, it's also a giant pain in the ass because even as I write I have to squint at the damn screen.
My brother was in the hospital as well. Not to worry, he's doing much better now! But it got really bad there for a while, he was inibated (totally destroyed that word, but long story short, he had to have a machine breathe for him. SCIENCE.)
Let's see....
Thanksgiving is just around the corner. I'm very thankful that I only live an hour away, I feel so bad for the out-of-state and out-of-country students here. At ECC, you can't stay on campus for holidays, you have to go home or go to a friends' until the dorms open up. I think we have to be out of here by the 18th, and then we can come back around the 30th (don't hold me to that, I don't exactly know the right dates ;D)
My roommate almost gave me a heart attack the other night. So before me and my friend Holly left for The Rocky Horror Picture show, Halie (my roommate) can back to our dorm COMPLETELY plastered. She has just turned 21 the weekend before and spent all of it in the emergency room for a severe kidney infection. Poor girl. But last weekend, she and 2 of her other friends were going bar-hopping as a late celebration for the birthday and she was seeing what was safe to drink and what wasn't. She quickly learned that she better stick to just beer, anything else would have her drunk before she even went to the first bar. Anyways, she came back and then said she had to leave to go and comfort her ex (I don't know what kind of comforting she was doing, but hey. That's all her) and she was drunk when she left. She said that if she wasn't back in four hours, to come and get her. That she would text me the address as soon as she got there. Well, Holly and I met up with our friend Kenzie at the movie about an hour later, stayed for the movie, went to McDonalds for a 12 am breakfast, and came back to find that Halie was still gone. Kenzie, bless her dear ginger heart, volunteered to help me find her. I had to stalk Halie's facebook page to find Ben's so I could ask him if she was still there. She had just left so we were sitting there absolutely FREAKING OUT because there were cops everywhere and she had already been busted for an OWI a year ago. We went back to the dorm and found her sitting on the bed, almost passed out, eating McDonalds.
PHew.
Moral of the story:
....
When in doubt, check McDonalds?

A fake Australian?!

So...today was interesting. Like I truly don't think you understand. Okay.
SO THIS MOTHERFUCKER (blurred for the privacy he doesn't fucking deserve)
His name is Caleb (supposedly). Kenzie, Kaci, and I met him at lunch at Leo's today. He had an AMAZING Australian accent and said he didn't have a place to stay at the moment.
We spent the day with him and his friend, walking, going to the volleyball game, and just hanging out.

He, Kenzie, and Kaci started off going to Des Moines, I decided to hang back here and get some MUCH needed homework done.
I go for my own long walk and take a shower, come back an my roommate is sitting there.
"HEY!" she said, sounded very relieved. "Kenzie was looking for you, she sounded really freaked out and stressed."
Halie called Kenzie and she came down, obviously shaken.
Before they left to go to Des Moines, they went to McDonalds. There, he was saying weird things about Choloform, rape, and assault. Whatever. She said she wasn't feeling well and wanted to go back to campus. So he dropped them all off.
She then proceeds to tell me.....
Wait for it

.................................
HE CALLED HER AND TOLD HER HE WAS FAKING HIS ACCENT THE ENTIRE TIME.
I'm not even kidding. He told her that is actually from Des Moines and always has been. And that he don't be coming back. He made up the accent because he wanted people to like him, he never had that in high school. What the actual fuck?! PLUS he told her that they were just going to leave them in Des Moines.

I'm not going to lie...I'm not mad. Upset and confused, yes. But not mad. I'm upset that I told him a lot about my life...because he was just so easy to talk to. He asked about my art. He was GENUINELY interested in what I did. And he sang to us, with his awesome voice.
His accent was the most mind boggling part....HE DID IT PERFECTLY!!!!
Ugh. I'm so confused...and heartbroken. I honestly really started liking him.
Fuck.


Well anyways, fuck you, motherfucker. If you know who he is PLEASE let me know.
I don't think his name is actually Caleb.
College-goers BEWARE!!!!!
People like this actually exist and I'm almost positive his intentions weren't great. Please be careful.

Shane Dawson: Not Cool.....IT'S ALMOST HERE!!

In 2013, Shane Dawson announced that he is starring and directing his FIRST movie!

He was previously in a movie called Smiley, directed by Micheal Gallagher in 2012, but this is HIS first movie. And we couldn't be more excited!

The screenplay was actually written by Dan Schoffer titled "How Soon".
He and another director, Annika, are both taking their own person spin on the screenplay and making their own movies. Shane's, of course, is titled Not Cool.
Their TV show "The Chair" was also recently aired on ShoTime or HBO (if I'm wrong, blame Kenzie). The show follows both directors on their journey with creating their movies.
Where Shane's is goofy and almost parody-like, Annika's seems more serious and dramatic. It will be very interesting to see how different the two movies are.

The basic plot of the movie revolves around a group of teenagers in Pittsburgh on Thanksgiving break. Shane plays the role of Scott, a guy who peaked in high school with a whore of a girlfriend who's into weird shit. He falls in love, and I'm assuming the movie just follows these teens and their journey on just...becoming themselves. Insper-fucking-rational. Only 3 more days!!!!!!!!



I love you.


Tyler Oakley is part of 5SOS?!

Today, Tyler put up a video of him telling us about his favorite things.
I gotta say. The highlight?
BABE YOU'RE MESSING WITH MY HEART

But honestly, there was one part of the video that truly bugged me. I get that YouTubers need to make money, and they do that through Ads. I just hate that Tyler is almost turning into...
*gulp*
a....
sellout?
Let me know, how you feel. How do you feel about YouTubers endorsing products like NatureBox, Audible, Warby Parker, Cruzan, Johnny Appleseed, etc.

BUT LOOK AT TYLER BBY JUST AW

Julien Solomita


If you watch YouTube star: Jenna Marbles, you'd know that behind the swearing, goofiness, and fabulously ratchet hair, there is an amazing woman that deserves love.
I've been subscribed to Jenna ever since I made my YouTube account, and I absolutely FELL IN LOVE with the other half of her duo--Max-No-Sleeves.

She announced to us in one of her videos (I believe it was the Drunk Christmas Tree Decorating?) that she and Max were splitsville after FOUR years of dating.
*CRIES*
Several rumors were speculated that the break-up was over an immature comment that Jenna left on someone's blog/social media profile. Others say it was mutual, even more say Max just did not give Jenna enough attention. The truth is

MAX WAS CHEATING ON JENNA.


That's right Jenna. You fucking go, you angel Space Hooker Silver Fox Princess.

It's been quite a while since the couple broke up and it seems Jenna is doing very well for herself...VERY well.
One night at a bar, Jenna was out partying and having a grand ol time with some girlfriends when she met McDreamy Hotness: Julien. A bulky ex-baseball player with a new passion for competitive weight lifting and milk (Sorry Jenna).
The two hit it off and started spending time together--Julien was even her bodyguard when she was in Ireland. Now the cutest couple in all the land, Julien makes regular appearances in Jenna videos. I'm not complaining ONE bit, I love me some ponytailed-curly-haired-hottie. 

Some of Jenna's fans aren't as thrilled as I am on this "imposter". 
"GET BACK TOGETHER WITH MAX" --Fucking everyone.

No. These two are beyond cute and make the loveliest little family. Recently, Julien got his own Italian Greyhound, Peach, because he was so in love with Kermit (Jenna's dog).

The bottom line is: Julien treats Jenna like a princess, minus a little bit of teasing here and there. ♥
The compassion that we have seen between these two is absolutely adorable, and I wish them the absolute best happiness. Just because Jenna isn't with the man that her fans want her to be with, doesn't mean a damn thing. Let her be happy, because it's obvious that Julien does that for her. He's sweet, funny, honest, and well.....his looks don't hurt ;)

Tell me your opinions! Do you like this new addition to the Jenna Marbles family?

Oh. And Dewt furget to watr ur Cermet so it can an grow.

Talent?

I managed to burn the absolute shit out of ramen noodles while they were in the microwave. Note to self: keep an eye on cooking substances when microwaving.
But seriously.
Can you say talented?
Show me ONE other person who has burnt ramen noodles.
Go on.

Obsidian (Lux Series: Book 1)

Alas, of course my first review is YA. But I must say, I didn't have high expectations going into this book. 

A short (realish) synopsis:

Katy moves into a small town because her mother makes her, and she hates it. Her father died of brain cancer a year earlier, and she's an angsty teen with a BOOK BLOG. That was the selling point for me. This was a girl after my own heart. She wants to do something with the old ass garden bed outside her house, so her mom is like "Yo Katy, go make friends and get directions" (I'm paraphrasing, of course)
Katy goes to the neighbors and asked Daemon, who is a total asshole to her. She's like "fuck you, dude" and leaves after he shouts the directions at her. Totally a great first impression.

She soon befriends Dee, Daemon's sister, at the grocery store. The two hit it off despite Daemon being all "RAWR RAWR STAY AWAY RAWR". But at the same time, being sexy and teasing her the whole time. *SWOON*

Can we talk about how attractive this boy is? I mean really. He is described to be really tall,  muscly but not in a "The Rock" way. Curly hair. Emerald eyes. Broody. Dark. YUM YUM YUM. Excuse me while I blow out my candles and make a wish. 

Katy falls for him, of course. She's our heroine and he's our hero. 
One thing I don't like about Katy is that she isn't strong, always being the damsel in distress and Daemon is always there to save her. I guess that's YA for you though. 

Katy is about to get hit by a truck and Daemon stops time, and the truck, to save her. Scared Katy is scared and Daemon's secret is out. ALIENS



The plot sounds awful. The characters sound cliche. But the EMOTION you feel when reading this is so real. Jennifer Armentrout, the author, knows what she's doing dammit.
The detail in this book messes with your feels, and makes you picture everything as if you were there.
Get beamed into Katy Swartz's world, you won't regret it.
Give this book a try!
4 out of 5 stars!

Welcome!

Now, give me a little break here. I'm new to this blogging world.
A freshman in college, I have absolutely no idea what to do with my life, but then it dawned on me...THE INTERNET.
We've all (well, mostly) been raised online in a sense. 5 year olds nowadays can operate a MacBook without an adult's help.
I like to kick it old school with a book in hand (yes, an actual book!)
So sit back, relax, and let me tell you my opinions.
