My Roommates are Demon-Huntresses...


So one day I stumbled on a link to a church. Not just any church, but one that seemed a little bit hell-bent on driving out demons and recognizing those poor sorry souls affected by demon possession.

It had to be legit! After all they had a nifty quiz to determine whether you (or anyone you wanted to take the test for) are a demon-possessed child of Satan.

Being the naturally curious person I am, I decided to take the test.

Sure enough, I'm an evil heathen. Uh...kay! (Pardon, but I don't think I can take a 15 question quiz on a site with enough grammatical and spelling errors to make an English teacher go into convulsions, very seriously.)

Thinking that this was one of the most ridiculous things I had seen in awhile, I decided to share it with my roommates.

Yes, I am that stupid.

Because as soon as I mentioned that "I took an online quiz. Apparently I have a demon inside me." it all went to hell.

It suddenly got very quiet. They just looked at me, then at each other, back to me, and then to each other again, some sort of intense focus lit up their eyes.

Then Rachel whispered, "Get the salt"

...

And that's when I ran.

The long story short I locked myself in my room for an hour as they banged on the door bearing a salt shaker (and a seasoning salt shaker. Hooray for improv!) and rebuking the demon inside me. I also had my forehead smacked and "holy city tap water" thrown on me when I did deign to leave my room. Oh, and "exorcism" was Googled several times.

...I think I'd rather have the demon, thank you very much.

But at least it made for an interesting night. I love my roommates XD

Five Stages

I look younger than I am.

Like quite a bit younger. As in, I am 21-years-old, and I apparently look like I may have just hit 14. Or younger sometimes.

I suppose wearing make up or changing up my hair would help. But I never really got into that sort of stuff.

It used to bother me a lot. But now I'm ok with it or at least can deal with it. But there were several stages leading up to this point. There are the 5 stages of grief; modified a bit I can show how I got to the point I am at today.

Or maybe I'm just bored. Your call.

1.) Denial

"I don't look that young. I am X-years old. No way I look as young as people say."

2.) Anger

"Why the hell can't people see that I'm older! I am NOT a child, come on!!!"

3.) Bargaining

"Ok, if I wear make-up, can I at least look my age. I don't need to look older like others want, just my age."

4.) Depression

"I'm going to be carded the rest of my life, aren't I. Guys will never date me because of potential pedophile remarks. What a rotten deal."

5.) Acceptance

"...Oh fuck it. Give me the kids meal. The food is cheaper anyway."

What We Learn from College: Part 3

A collection of quotes from my 3rd year of college (2010-2011)

...well actually, they are quotes from the second semester of my 3rd year. Apparently I didn't keep track of them from first semester.

A word of warning, some language that may be unsuitable for children is here. Be warned and if you don't like it, don't read. Simple, no?

I'd also like to say that I added a links widget at the side of the site (under Check it Out!) If you have a site that you'd like to promote here, just ask me and I'll probably add it there.

Enjoy!

Evolutionary Biology

"The sex ratio of MSUM is 60:40 while at NDSU it's flipped around. Isn't that interesting? ...It has nothing to do with sex."

"Green sunfish are the sluts of the sunfish world."

"So you've got the two different alleles. Actually, they're garbanzo beans."

"Yes, the lizard does have sex...every now and again...when she's feeling frisky..."
--Talking about a species of asexual lizard.

"What did you learn in middle school about the evolution of sex? Nothing? Ok, what about in high school? ...What is the word on the street about the evolution of sex then?"

"Be careful if you are naked around barnacles."

"Don't take vitamin shots from your boyfriend."

"This is how to become a great scientist: sho oxpeckers off of oxen."
