Why we have abbreviations such as LMFAO

LMFAO.

OMG, Omegle.

If you know what it's like to be a bored teenager living in the 21st century, you probably also know about online chatrooms..

So here's the story: I was bored out of my mind. I couldn't even come up with something random to blog about. Suddenly the idea of talking to someone equally as bored as me seemed like a good idea (don't ask me why). I googled "anonymous chat room" (because honestly, what else is there to do on the internet on a Sunday night). The first page that came up was Omegle. It didn't sound too bad, an anonymous chat with a random stranger. Well, let me tell you this, alright, it was pretty bad! And these conversations that I've copied here aren't by far the worst I've had.

Now, let's me show you how you can easily stereotype these anonymous (and very weird) people.

There's the foreign stranger:

You're now chatting with a random stranger. Say hi!
Stranger: 你是台湾人吗/
You: Haha
You: Uh, okay, nice yo meet you too
You: DO YOU SPEAK ENGLISH
Stranger: 你是台湾的吗
Your conversational partner has disconnected.

..who also, apparently, likes to push the disconnect button.

There's the pervs:

You're now chatting with a random stranger. Say hi!
Stranger: hi
You: hey random
Stranger: hw old
You: 18
You: ...
You: and you?
Stranger: m/f
You: f, and YOU?!
Stranger: m
Stranger: u horny
You: Umm, not really, bye.
You have disconnected.

Then there's the illiterate, pervy stranger:

You're now chatting with a random stranger. Say hi!
You: Have you ever read a book?
Stranger: asl
You: I asked you a question stranger
Stranger: ...
You: So are you gonna answer or what
Stranger: are you female
You: yeah, and I suppose you never have then
Stranger: are you hrny
You: omfg, this is impossible
You have disconnected.

There's the let's say something random and then disconnect strangers

You're now chatting with a random stranger. Say hi!
Stranger: i smell bacon
You: i smell eggs
Stranger: Yay! perfect breakfast
Your conversational partner has disconnected.

And then there's just the disconnecters (they don't say much at all really)..

You're now chatting with a random stranger. Say hi!
Your conversational partner has disconnected.


So the lesson learned today is: If you ever feel like chatting with a random stranger; don't.
Peace out, PW

I'm back. With a MacBookPro!

It's been a while, I know. That's because, as usual, my computer shut down. So this time around, I bought a MacBookPro 13". I can't tell you exactly how I feel about that yet, except that it's so much prettier than my previous black computer. What I can tell you for a fact, though, is that I'm back and I'll be updating soon!

Lots of love, PW

I saw Eclipse. I'm not impressed.

Umm, so this scene was way hotter better than what expected it to be, but everything else was.. well.. not quite as amazing as seeing Robward with his shirt open. On a bed..

I know, I know, but seriously.. There were some MAJOR flaws in the movie which, at times, made me want to laugh out loud when there clearly was nothing to laugh about. Bella's wig. Oh my. It was even worse than Jacob's Twilight wig and Rosalie's New Moon wig combined. And puh-lease, that Rosalie and Bella scene? Wtf happened to Rosalie's heartfelt confession? It's not that Nikki Reed didn't do a great job, she did, but the whole scene just didn't play out the way I had pictured it.

There's about a thousand other minor things that I think should have been different (like longer scenes; I felt like the whole thing was just one big collage of scenes put together just to try and fit everything - every page of every chapter - into one movie. I liked it better the Twilight way - leave out some stuff to make the most important scenes more intense).

So my thoughts when I walked out of the theater? Well, I didn't hate it, I just didn't particularly like it.

As always, lots of love, PW

A looong way down.

I read a lot, just because I love to read. I also love books that are somewhat funny and have a bit of humor in them. And I love Nick Hornby. So chances are; I'm going to love his novel A Long Way Down too. I'm currently on page 30 (I bought it yesterday), and I already feel comfortable recommending it to you guys (whoever you are out there in the blogosphere). If you want to know what it's about, here's what wiki has to say:

A Long Way Down is a novel written by British author Nick Hornby, published in 2005. It is a dark comedy, playing off the themes of suicide, angst, depression and promiscuity.

The story is written in the first-person narrative from the points of view of the four main characters, Martin, Maureen, Jess and JJ. These four strangers happen to meet on the roof of a high building called Topper's House in London on New Year's Eve, each with the intent of committing suicide. Their plans for death in solitude, however, are ruined when they meet. The novel recounts their misadventures as they decide to come down from the roof alive - however temporarily that may be.

Four people who want to kill themselves on New Years eve? Created by the oh so talented author of About a Boy and High Fidelity? Yes please.

Love, PW

Crocodiles and Penguins.. And Snakes too.

Best friends 4evah

Remember how I told you I was going to a zoo/aquarium yesterday? I did go there, and it turns out it was quite fun, almost as fun as when I was a kid. I've always loved animals (even the dangerous, lethal kind) you see. Here are some pics I took yesterday.

Hello there!

Watching the penguins get fed never gets old..
If I wanted to.. I could eat you alive.

My first REAL festival!

I'm growing up, I really am. Graduation was a big deal and all, it was, but this, my first real festival, was even bigger. Almost.

This was not entirely my first musical festival, though. BUT it was the first festival where I had to live in a tent for seven days. I've learned a lot about myself so far. I'll make you a list:
1) I don't like bees much. Especially not if they're in my tent.
2) I need toilet paper to live. Almost more than I need food.
3) I love music more than I thought possible.
4) Cupcakes and chips for breakfast is only cool for the first three or four days you try it.
5) I think I'm in love with Julian Casablancas. (Yeah, not really, but he's funny. And I love The Strokes. He was amazing live, and hilarious as hell. Quotes of the day: "We're in a fucking forest!" (we were actually in a forest, it's just that he was the only one to point it out) and "So are you fucking in some tents or what?" Hehe.)

Oh, and Muse! Muse! I've seen Muse live! I was wrong when I said my life was complete after the Green Day and Joan Jett concert. Now, my life is complete. Almost. I become more complete after every concert I go to.

Happy summer time, PW
