I make this look good

...and bitchy.

I bought a fitted a couple of weeks ago because when I was drunk I decided to be all cutesy and steal The Gentle Giant's hat when we were at the bar.

Turns out, I look good in hats.

But the fitted gives me mad swagger and I tend to get a little bossier than usual when wearing it.

ex:

The Engineer: Can you stop calling me a bitch?
Team Gingerbread: Whatever, you love it
Team Gingerbread: (mutters under her breath) ...bitch!

The one with the sleepover

...wherein we watch the complete first seasons of both Beverly Hills: 90210 and Melrose Place. skate videos and eat pizza.

The Laguna Beach Drinking Game

In honour of the obsession (read: Pancake and Gingerbread's pathetic obsession with Laguna Beach) - the Laguna Beach drinking game:

* If there’s ever an awkward pause in a conversation, one person puts a sip of their drink in the middle cup.
* If Jason totally lies to a girl, all guys drink.
* If Jessica claims she’s over Jason, all girls drink.
* If Talan claims to love/like either Kristin or Taylor, everyone drinks.
* If any of the girls go shopping, all the boys drink.
* Any time the boys go surfing, all the girls drink.
* If Lo says anything at all, everyone does a shot.
* If LC is happy for more than 10 consecutive seconds, everyone drinks.
* If Kristin talks about hooking up, all single people drink.
* Any time Cedric, “Jason’s friend”, say something, all people missing a chromosome drink.
* Any time Alex M. says anything, everyone with an STD drinks.
* If any of the cast goes to a ridiculously expensive restaurant on a date, everyone drinks.
* Any time Stephen gets dissed by Kristin, everyone drinks.
* Any time Taylor says anything, anyone who looks like they were beaten half to death with a 2×uc0 × has to drink.
* Any time there’s a blatant shot of Jessica’s HUGE tits, everyone does a shot.
* If Casey mentions “Quesadillas”, everyone who doesn't get it drinks.
* Whenever Kristin rolls her eyes, each girl can give out one drink.
* Whenever Jason doesn’t make eye contact, each guy can give out one drink.
* Any time someone watching the show says “This shit is so scripted”, that person has to do a shot.
* Any time someone says “So what’s up with you and _______ ?”, anyone in a relationship has to drink.
* When someone explicitly mentions sex, the last person in the room to have lost their virginity drinks the center cup.

I'd like to thank my friend Dave for filling my inbox with gems like these!

and now, back to the LB binge-athon

Seriously - I'm gonig to hell for this...

It's ridiculously morbid, but I'm obsessed with this site.

They chronicle the deaths of myspace members and 'pick up where regular obituaries [have] left off'

Oil City Derby Girls

So I was watching Passions (I'm not proud of this but I was bored) and this preview of tonight's local news comes on and it's an ad for a new roller derby league! I'm peer pressuring Latte into signing up for this. She used to speedskate and she always talks about how wicked awesome she'd be at it because she can actually skate. As a child she dreamed of one day becoming a California Sun Dog, this is her calling...

Hooray!

My shoes are here! I put them on and as promised I kinda hugged the box. Not because I was really happy, but because I was leaving as the Canada Post truck rolled up and my hands were full. I had to sign for the package and pay duties, so you know... I'm wearing the brown ones right now. These shoes are the perfect alternative to dorky looking dock shoes. I was thinking of taking up sailing again while I was in Van, and then I remembered than there's no water in Alberta.

I convinced Pancake to come to campus with me because we needed to hang up flyers for the spare room in our house. We're working on getting one of our sorority siters to move in, but she's not sure. We're such typical girls, while we were hanging posters, if we saw another poster advertising a room for rent, we'd take it down. We actually saw one for a room in a rival sorority house, and promptly took it down. It's nothing personal ladies, we just want it more than you do! The funny thing was, after we took care of their poster, we saw a poster for a martini party that's being hosted by our friends. We moved that poster to a more prominent location - right next to ours.

Pancake pointed out someone that she might make out with in the 'margarine hole in the wall', so I'll see what I can do.

I heart reality TV

...well only if it's really stupid and pointless. Mostly just Big Brother and Growing Up Gotti (unfortunately, A&E decided against renewing the show for a 4th season).

I think the reason I like Big Brother way more than Survivor is that people who compete on Survivor have the exact same goals as BB contestants (the show is their launch pad to 15 minutes of fame and a lifetime of relative obscurity), but the BB contestants are just way more honest about it. Why starve on an island when you can live in a fully furnished house, with food, a hot tub and a pool? You can bring your cute clothes, and the guys are usually pretty attractive and are at least in your age bracket. There is no real explanation to the Gotti obsession.
