College.

I'm about to go on a very long rant, that may or may not be offensive to anyone who has ever attended/taught/seen a community college. 

They suck. 
Its not the teachers fault. Nor is it the fault of the staff who is over worked and probably terribly underpaid. Its the system. The few years I attended I was all "Just let me Extreme School Makeover this place". I will come in, fire the shitty old/cranky teachers and staff (that refuse to retire). Paint the walls. Put in some desks that don't resemble the same ones I used in the third grade. And get shit ORGANIZED. I swear people will be begging to come to this place. Well.... probably not. But they wouldn't dream of getting caught horrible traffic to have a legitimate reason to not go to class.

Extreme School Makeover Steps:
#1. Fire every college algebra teacher that has ever taught even a single class there.
#2. Figure out the tornado that is the financial aid department
#3. Hire people that's only job is to answer the friggin phones
#4. Paint the walls. Like a friendly color.
#5. Get a desk that my whole ass can fit in
#6. Donate all the old desks to an elementary school. Or a dollhouse. 
#7. Put a computer on every desk. You know. For Facebook purposes.
#8. Install a speaker system throughout all the buildings and have the teachers drop everything and do a choreographed dance every time the radio plays "Moves Like Jagger" (kinda the same concept as Texas Roadhouse)

#8 could probably not make the cut. Depends on how long you give me to teach the teachers the dance. Extreme School Makeover only lasts 3 days. So we will see. In the mean time... I'm gonna send these suggestions the school's way. You know... as my own Public Service. You are welcome future community college students.

*** Anyway, I love most of the teachers at my old school and I truthfully thank them for tolerating me for the semester. If you have met me you are probably aware of my mild self-diagnosed OCD and my constant need to tell everyone my opinion. A few have actually have helped change my life. Those are the ones who I would hire as SCHOOL PRESIDENTS. and their salaries would be $1000344957 a year. Yeah.... Im sure you want me to take over the school now!

Music these days.

"music" what a joke.


Worst songs of the year
1. Moves like Jagger- Maroon Five
2. Friday Song- Rebecca Black
3.Sexy and I Know It- Lmfao
4. anything "sung" by Lady GaGa
5.Whip My Hair- Willow Smith


Every time these songs play I hope my own hair will whip itself into my ears, or some sort of jagger will find it's way into my temple. 


However, this does not stop the radio stations from playing them. Clearly, somewhere in this world there are mass amounts of teenage girls who jump around listening to songs about being born crazy. Its okay preteen girls, you can be psycho. You were born that way baby. Also, feel free to dress like tiny street walkers and/or disco balls wearing ten inch heels. Its totally cool.... The song says so. I mean, you're sexy and you know it, and you have moves like jaggers whatever the F that means. 


I've lost all hope for American youth.

Let's talk about Christmas break.


It's the shit. End of story.



.... I have been out of school like 3 days and have watched more Law and Order reruns then any normal full-time employee could ever dream of. I don't shower till about 2 in the afternoon on a productive day. I have become obsessed with pinterest, so I am constantly looking a crafts/food that I will never EVER make in my whole life. 

It's like they knew me personally when they made this.
I like to call these "college problems"
How did you know!?!
Those are just a few photos I found on pinterest that explain my life. 

Anyway, I hope your Christmas season is filled with all kinds of cool stuff.. Like cookies, Elf the movie, Chick Fil A, blankets, naps, tv marathons,wine, and more family than you really can tolerate!

My blog is in the Christmas spirit!

It's Christmas season here on my blog. I hate Christmas so this might be the only post you see about it (unless something dumb and Christmas related happens... which is a giant possibility). 


Here's the breakdown: I LOVE the Christmas season! Ex: Snow, eggnog, Christmas music, Christmas trees, more cookies than I could ever imagine! Oh, and I also love the birth of Jesus. He's the man, and I like his birthday.


I hate Christmas day. Three families... one Casey. Three large meals... one small stomach. Presents. I hate presents. I don't have enough time (or blog space) to talk about my hatred of presents so please just trust me. I also hate surprises. Overall you can just see its not a good holiday for me.


Anyway... below is my list of shit I hope to do before Christmas. I wont be posting one for "things I wish to accomplish for after Christmas" because that would simply be... 1)sleeping 2) working out.... to lose the flat tire that will no doubt form around my stomach area. 


List of things I hope to accomplish before I die Christmas:

  • Do all my Christmas shopping online so I don't have to interact with psycho moms that "JUST NEED THE LEAPSTER SO BAD! MY TOMMY'S CHRISTMAS WILL BE RUINED WITHOUT IT!"
  • Eat all my mom's Christmas cookies before she has a chance to take them to work!
  • Drink a lot of "special" Eggnog.... because its legal
  • Think of something to get my grandfather, who hates Christmas as much as I do
  • Drink wine
  • Wear a lot of pajamas
  • Put more pajamas on my Christmas list
  • Watch all 300 versions of The Grinch they play on ABC Family
  • Watch EVERYTHING on ABC Family that says "Christmas" in the title Watch EVERYTHING on ABC Family period. 
  • Ignore everything on the list of the name I picked for Secret Santa.... and get them something I think is way cooler
  • Try not to kill Eric as he asks if he can have his present early for the 109938938 time!
  • Drink more wine
  • Buy my dog this adorable scarf I saw on Etsy.com

Uhhh life? Is that you? It's me. Casey.

Hello world :) It's me.


Yeah me. The girl who has been dedicating far too much time to this little annoyance called "education". It's been a rough semester. This has been the most work I have ever done in my life. I'm exhausted! 


The past few weeks have been pretty crazy, and I feel like my body just cant keep up! So I went to the doctor to get some blood work, and I learned I am probably not Narcoleptic (I wish). I am just Iron Deficient. I refuse to say "anemic" because my family will be all... "we told you so" And I have A LOT of family and not enough time. Anyway, I'm on like 9 million Iron supplements daily (I will probably actually take them this time). Hopefully that will help with the "F*&@ the alarm clock mornings". Probably not, but a girl can dream. 




I also chose a major, AND a school. I'm Going to Webster (I want to steal all your money) University. :) My major will be Public Relations with a minor in Advertising. I know what you are all thinking.... I've said I want be anything from an Astronaut to a Clown. I mean it this time. I even signed up for classes. Trust me, once you pay for those classes you can NEVER look back. Hopefully I will have it paid off sometime before I die. 


I think this career choice might be good for my outgoing, non stop talking, over dramatic personality. :) 


I also would like to write a book. Lord knows I have enough crazy stuff to write about my own life. However, I don't think the world is ready for it, so that one might be put on hold. Maybe until my mom cant see well enough to read anymore, so I can save her from disappointment. Just kidding MOM! ..... kinda. 


she hates when I do homework.
Anyway, Zoey and I are doing well. She is abnormally clingy, I think she is battling Eric for my attention. Sadly neither of them get it because of that "education" thing. BUT.... the countdown is ON! after my transfer to Webster in the Spring I have a year and a half left :)
By then I'm sure Eric and Zoey will both be running for the hills!
