We aren't in Tuesday today, but Wednesday is cancelled.


This was me last week.



This is me today (Monday.)




As you may have learned, I have this horrible affliction called "grad school." It's destroyed me.

I used to be like this.
But then one day, I decided I didn't have enough debt and I had too much time and happiness in my life, so I thought it would be cool to get my Masters degree.

This happened.
At first, professors lulled me into a false sense of security. I knew more than they were teaching, assignments were a joke-- grad school was easy!

But then they realized what they were doing.

They put their evil forces together, just like in that Batman movie where Chris O'Donnell played hot Robin, only I have no hot Robin. I have these guys:

(Love you guys!)

Once Evil united, I was pretty much screwed. It went like this:




Hence:



You'll see a lot of that blank expression, I think.

Oh, and because I don't think my picture was clear enough, here's a breakdown of my life before:

Coincidences

You know when you say something you haven't said in ages, then you say it again within the same week and you're like, "Man! I never talk about _____ and here I've said it twice in a week!"

That happened with me and eagles.

Remember when I was like, "eagles are *not* immortal"? Turns out, in my social circles, they never die.

Two days after that discussion, I was doing some research about Chevrolets with Intern Jeremy and it came up again.








*Note to reader: Intern Jeremy doesn't actually look anything like this at all. He isn't bald but I don't know how to draw short boy hair. And I'm pretty sure he has a nose. I think he has glasses but I can't really remember. (Sorry, Jeremy! Please don't use your awesome eagle powers on me next time you see me!)

Note to self: Quit making friends with people who wear glasses. It's too hard to draw.

For those of you who live in a cave...

For those of you who live in a cave, or are otherwise in communicado (aside from this sole website), I have fantastic news:

The Olympics are coming!

I know, I know! You're like, "Wait a tic-- didn't we just have the Olympics last year?"

No. Canada did.

Remember the totally rad opening?
(I'm not sure why they chose red, white and blue...)

But yes, the Games were last year.

"So how are they coming...?"

You ask too many questions. The point is, the Olympics are almost upon us again!

The Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia, will be starting up again in a mere 1,110 days!!!

And if you like the Summer Olympics, then you only have to wait 551 days before the Games in London, but whatever. You know, if you're into that. (If their mascots are any indication of how amazing the Games will be, well... Make your own decisions there.)

Like I said, the point here is that the Winter Olympics are only 1,110 days away. You know what that means, don't you?

I either have to take up and master Speedskating soon, or I need to get back to training.

Before the 2014 Winter Olympics, I am completely committed to reaching the ultimate high score on Wii Fit Ski Jump. That's 404 (2 jumps of 202m).

As you can see, I've been training for a while and my scores aren't anything to scoff about.


My personal best jump was 194m during last year's Olympic Games.

I'm feeling really confident about training. I joined a gym last week. *thumbs up* Now all I have to do is, you know, GO, and soon enough I'll have totally shredded legs and be able to leap over buildings and ski jumps in a single bound!






Pretty soon, I'll be able to put actual skis on and you guys will be all, "I know that girl! She's funny AND she ski jumps!"
1,110 days, bloggies!!!
