lessons learned.

I like to write posts in odd formats in the hopes that someone will read actually read them, and maybe even be awake by the end. so here, in list format, are things I've learned since my last post:

• no matter how little eyeliner you think you're wearing, even a little is still 100% more than none, and people will call you out on it.
• black lights and pandora make not having a dishwasher all better. (dish-washing dance parties ftw!)
• posting profanity in your gchat status does not go over well when your parents can see it. (x2!)
• a lesson learned, and blogged about, years ago: severe awkwardness is a much better stimulant than caffeine. so don't mix caffeinated beverages and awkwardness.
• no matter how much you think you look like a hobo, it is never enough when you are surrounded by throngs of nerdy boys.
• metaphorically speaking, in any sense, don't leave your fortune in the hands of a gambler.
• today's lesson: however brilliant of an artist you may be at 2am, getting the wrong amount of sleep will make you the equivalent of drunk at work the next day, dropping your iq by a good 50 points or so. FAIL.
• part II: don't be sleep-deprived-drunk when you have a cute boy to yourself all day. megafail.

life continues to be interesting, both as a blessing and a curse, but largely the former. I will write more when I'm more coherent (and possibly have played in a tournament. that might give me better material :P)
