Lessons Learned: Missing Hoodies

For those of you that have been around the diva since her birth you know that she goes through stages of "hoodie love"

It all began with her beloved Senate hoodie back in the day when she was pals with BladerFranz. She wore the sweatshirt religiously until it was lost one day while working at Bonus and never to be seen again.

She quickly replaced her love with SheRa's Grind King hoodie. That was a super awesome one and she still wonders of its whereabouts to this very day.

She rebounded with her Shorty's sweatshirt that held a special place in her heart up until about two years ago when she fell in love with her Barstow Track hoodie.

The B-Hoodie held a special importance due to the fact that her lucky number was printed on the front and the irony that she had ever participated in an activity that's main function was running.

However she has recently misplaced this special hoodie. She finds a hard time getting attached to a new hoodie and would like to get this one back as soon as possible. Anyone who has ever heard the song Red Hooded Sweatshirt by Adam Sandler can understand the pain she is going through at this loss.

If anyone knows the whereabouts of her favorite item of clothing please contact the diva ASAP. The Barstow Forensics hoodie just doesn't feel the same.

Lessons Learned: Not So Random Checks (AKA How I Caught Paranoia From President Bush)

So many of you may remember a recent post about how the current administration has been rubbing the diva the wrong way.

Now those of you that know BitchNichole personally are aware that she is a proud Welsh-American that has given many speeches on patriotism and all that jazz (yes she has even been brought to real honest to goodness tears when speaking about her country). However, after her recent trip to the her second favorite city (the first being Lawrence) she realized that the government may be spying on her happy little online venting mechanism.

That's right! BitchNichole was forced through FIVE "random" searches on her way to and from the great city of New York! Huh?

Many of you may also know that she is not the most organized diva of all time. Because of this she greatly appologized to the employees that were rummaging through her personal belongings while she was being felt up mere feet away.

She now offers the following appology to a Mr. George W. Bush and his administration:

Sorry I expressed my feelings of discontent for your dealings with a high school extra-curricular activity. I was clearly wrong for using my right to free speech. I wrongfully assumed that I lived in a free country. Thank you for showing me the errors of my ways through public molestation. I will remember to keep my thoughts to myself in the future oh great leader.

AGENDA

1. Screw Freshpeople

2. Notify Perlich

Meeting adjourned.

Can you guess who I've been talking to?

Lessons Learned: Athena's Lack of Knowledge in the Field of Musical Classifications and Genres (AKA The Fight)

Athena and BitchNichole just got in a huge fight about the word "emo" and the musical genres and classifications.
BitchNichole was ready to slap Athena, but instead settled for saying "I can't believe someone that loves music so much could be so wrong."

Thank you to Jack Johnson for starting this fight.

Lessons Learned: Things I Am Thankful For...

Ok yeah BitchNichole realizes that Thanksgiving was like FOREVER ago, but this trip to NYC has made her realize that she is really happy (and lucky) to have certain things in her life. This has led her to create the following list.

1. ThePrettyPosse (AKA Athena and SheRa) - wow have these two ever made this the best spring break ever. What with the morning coffee runs in pajamas ("No, I wouldn't consider this a walk of shame. That's more for someone that's wearing nice clothes" -Shera), the borrowing of clothes and beds, and humorous discussions. Yeah long story short BitchNichole has like the best sisters ever.

2. Misdirected Bad Feelings - So on her way to the MET this morning the diva got a sickening feeling in her stomach that something bad had happened to Mom40 and Dad. She called and Mom40 said everything was cool. Less than a minute later something flew into the diva's eye and it hurt real bad for like 4 minutes. Oh well at least everything's cool in Tongie Land.

3. Skirts - ok this may sound a little silly, but it's like the closest the diva's gonna get to walking around nekked and it kinda rocks just a little.

4. Unrequited Love - So yeah some stupid fool might have broken the diva's heart hardcore (like it still stings a lot which is a surprise because this has long outlasted the usual 12-hour break that she's grown accustomed to) but it has provided a great story that she will use in a book or play that will make her tons of cash. And she'll change the name so the fella in question won't get any of the cash. How's that feel jerk? Ha ha ha it seems the tables have turned now. Not just another story for her pretentious blog now is it.

5. PapaPhilley - yeah ok he didn't come through on this whole job search thing, but he did buy her lunch to make up for the meal that MacchioBroker refused to pay for so it all adds up in the end.

6. Coffee - need I say more. Coffee is the way you know that there is a God and s/he loves us all very much and wants to keep us awake and smiling.

7. Mom40 & Dad - Thanks for keeping the diva's checking account full and giving her all the love and material items that any kid could ever want. You rock!

That's it for now...
But in other news...

BitchNichole fell in love again today! Combine exibit at the Met. Want to make out with him hardcore. Imagined that they had a brief affair in another life that ended in a great argument about art. Got chills. Then figured he's probably gay.

Oh no she has a new type. While on the subway today she saw a dreamy gentleman enter her car. She watched him secretly through the corner of her eye and then realized he looked almost identical to TheHorse. Wow! She never thought that was her type. Funny how time changes everything.

Lessons Learned: Thank God Almighty I'm Here At Last

So for all you readers that called worried that BitchNichole was still stranded in the midwest (alright PrincessMike was the one and only -- thanks for that buddy), here is the story of the flight plan from hell.

About an hour after her f-u to Delta post she found a flight that would take her to NYC leaving at 5:00 and arriving at LaGuardia at 1:00 am. However when she arrived at KCI it turned out that if she were to take that flight it was unlikely that she would make her connecting flight so Delta ran the Welsh diva over to Midwest for a 6:40 departure and 10:15 arrival.

That didn't quite work out and long story short she spent 7 hours in the airport, 3 hours on the plane, 20 minutes in a cab and arrived at Athena's at 3:00 in the morning.

Today she woke up at 10:30, met up with MacchioBroker for a quick lunch and swapping of love stories at 1:00 (and no he didn't pay SURPRISE SURPRISE), and spent the rest of the day chilling with SheRa.

Lessons Learned: Screw You Delta!

The diva woke up bright and early this morning ready to depart to the wonderful city of New York. Yay!... oh, but wait! Right before she was ready to leave Mom40 recieved a phone call confirming flight reservations for Tuesday, huh?

Turns out that current weather situations have forced the diva to spend another day in the city of her birth.

The Bryan Busby however would lead BitchNichole to think otherwise. Sounds like this weather is just going to get worse! The Welsh goddess is now stressing majorly at the thought that she may very well have to spend the rest of her break in Kansas and have no job after graduation.

Doesn't growing up rock?

Lessons Learned: Back to My Roots

One of BitchNichole's favorite moments is when she reaches the point on her drive home that 96.5 The Buzz comes in through the speakers of SeanEssDog. What other radio station can play Ramones' I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend and follow with some obscure song about two kids in school whose crushes turn into like?

As the diva sat in The Jazz Club tonight she had a definite I-Heart-Lawrence moment and secretly thanked God that she was a born and raised Jayhawker (despite the fact that her team got their asses handed to them by Bradley in last night's b-ball game).

She leaves for NY on Monday. Score!

Lessons Learned: My Soundtrack to Making Out

In a recent conversation with BigBrodahMitch he claimed that the diva talks about making out the way that "normal people" talk about getting it on. Having said that when listening to her iPod today the diva started to go through some kissing withdrawl. As a result she composed a list of songs she would like to make out hard to.
So here they go in no particular order:

L-L-Love - Astaire
Paint it Black - Burn It Down
Red Handed Slight of Hand - Cursive
Too Fast For Love - The Donnas
A Girl Like You - Edwyn Collins
Bad Word For a Good Thing - The Friggs
Kiss Me Deadly - Generation X
Hate to Say I Told You So - The Hives
Yoo Hoo - Imperial Teens
Mr. Brightside - The Killers
Ethyl My Love - The Muffs
Hot Lava - Perry Ferrell & D.V.D.A
Cherry Bomb - Runaways
Rock You Like a Hurricane - Scorpions
Don't Call Me Babe - Shampoo
The Beast and the Dragon, Adored - Spoon
I Turn My Camera On - Spoon
Believing is Art - Spoon
I Wanna Be Your Dog - The Stooges
Blinded By the Lights - The Streeets
Superfly Slick - Vengaboys
You Gave Your Love to Me Softly - Weezer

Yeah she knows some of these are cheesy and overplayed, but that's also true of some of the boys she kisses, so it all works out in the end.

Lessons Learned: Sorry to Ruin the Fun

Alright someone (I'm not going to say who because I'm still kind of mad) forgot to send out the invitations to the Get Lucky Party. So I'm just going to say it this way:

GBaby and TheUser you are invited to ADA's Get Lucky Party. Sorry to ruin the surprise. Had you recieve the invitation you probably would have thought it was some really awesome chick that wanted to do you. Sorry.

GBaby if you stand me up on this one I may have to find a new date for GDD. But probably not because I know you're way hotter than any other guy I know.

In other news:
Anyone remember that year that some kid got run over by some float at the St. Patrick's Day Parade and they had to hand the candy out in bags the next year, but then it turned out it was MyRyan and he was like 15 at the time, old enough to know better.
Well BitchNichole is going to the parade this year! Pictures to follow! That's hot!

Lessons Learned: My Dirty Mind

There is a new diet pill called Tight. Does anyone else find this amusing?

Lessons Learned: It Must Be That Time of Year

BitchNichole has been having a lot of boy drama lately. PrincessMike and TheHorse ganged up on her, junior high style! They played a game where one of them would ask her a question and then IM the response to the other. TheUser said she doesn't understand the meaning of the word friendship. And even her internet friend has accused her of getting too serious. What is going on???
So for those of you that seems a bit confused at the moment here's some info on the Welsh goddess that you may have missed out on, but should take very seriously:

She is a commitment-phobe. If you lead her to believe that you want a serious relationship in any way she will freak out and have a panic attack.

She should never be taken seriously. Almost everything (aside from those sentences beginning "I'm being completely honest...") out of her mouth is a joke or exaggeration.

Love is a pretty serious word to her. The word hardly ever comes out of her mouth outside of references to family members, Rooms, and Kudla. If she uses this word with someone it is kind of a big deal, so be nice. On that note it took her five years of friendship with Kudla to use it on him, so if you have been able expedite that process count yourself lucky.

Her underwear and/or butt crack is ALWAYS showing. That's really not that important, it's just funny.

Lessons Learned: Finally

For all of you out there that think watching three hours of news a day is crazy, BitchNichole presents you with the dimond in the rough: http://www.dontdatehimgirl.com.
This is a website for ladies to enter in names and pictures of the men that have done them wrong in relationships.
After doing a quick name search the diva relized that none of her ex's are listed on the site.
She does not have any plans to add any names of her former likes, so all ex's can let go a collective sigh of relief.

Lessons Learned: Slumber Party Fun!

BitchParis gnaws on a chicken nugget during the festivities

Mmmm. Pina Colada!!

Friday night BitchNichole had a horrible experience: she slept in her own bed. Alright perverts stop thinking she means that in a she-normally-shares-a-bed-with-a-random-guy sort of way. No, Friday nights are usually slumber party nights and she falls asleep on the couch (sometimes the futon if BigBrodahMitch is staying over). But with Rooms out of town commentating for the Lady Broncos the Welsh goddess was forced to sleep in her very lonely room because it would have just been weird to sleep alone in the living room.
However, something magical happened on Saturday. BitchParis who has been very ill and covered in hives for the last few days was catching a little cabin fever and looking for a way out of her apartment. Solution? SLUMBER PARTY!!!
The divas grabbed some Pina Colada mix, way too much junk food, and B-level films and prepared for a night of movie watching.

Here's a few examples of some interesting discussions that took place during the slumber party:

BitchParis: What did he say?
BitchNichole: I think he just said "Noids don't have sex with Doodles" and that's our cue to end it.
BitchParis: But I want to see if a Noid will do a Doodle.
BitchNichole: I think we both know the answer to that.

BitchParis: I would never follow a corpse.
BitchNichole: Especially if it looked like that.

BitchParis: I'm going to call Dan.
BitchNichole: No don't.
BitchParis: Yes I am. I'm going to. Crap it's Saturday.
BitchNichole: Yes it is.
BitchParis: Oh nevermind.

BitchNichole: I don't know what to do.
BitchParis: No wait... think back to The Shining.

BitchNichole: I like the ugly one.
BitchParis: I like the cute one.
BitchNichole: You won't after you see what an asshole he turns out to be.
BitchParis: No, I probably still will.

BitchNichole: Wow! Those are some really small boobies.

BitchNichole: It's 2:13 in the morning and I'm pissed... great!

Lessons Learned: And There It Is

Well she finally recieved her metaphorical Post-It today.
The diva is slightly heartbroken. It was a worse heartbreak until she had a dream about Sam from Whitest Kids and then she felt slightly better, however had there been a vase of flowers around it would have been a complete Berger reenactment.

Lessons Learned: Message to the Asshole in Chem

Wow, I am constantly impressed by the way that your all powerful intelligence far surpasses my own. Really, you are so knowledgable that I question your reasoning for taking a class which is nicknamed "Chem for Tards."
Perhaps we would be able to become friends if I were to wake up tomorrow with a penis (you racist, sexist, heterosexist bigot). Maybe then you would stop giving me those mean looks in class (you ignorant Nebraskan hick).
You are so right for thinking that I won't be able to understand the studies of chemistry and communication because my duty is to cook and clean for my man (I hope you get in that big muddy truck of yours with the rotting deer carcasses and drive off a cliff you hypocritical bastard). I will try to put all my efforts into that in the future.

Sincerely,

The Ditzy Blonde in the Third Row

Lessons Learned: Don't Think Twice It's Alright

If you tell me to stay I will get scared and leave... you should know that by now.

The diva has a large ball of gas in her tummy that won't go away, she apologizes to the remaining roommate.

BitchNichole wonders why all of her professors have been cancelling class lately, is it possible that they are tired of teaching as much as she is tired of learning?

The Welsh goddess showed up to class two hours early yesterday... she is still wondering exactly what time zone she was on.

Are you serious that Bush is pissed at high school mock trial teams? This administration is driving her nuts.

According to MSNBC Spring Break = drinkin', drugin', and unprotected sexin'. The diva calls this Friday's at TheShack (no she is not involved in these activities except some moderate drinkin'). But honestly she's never had a spring break like that in her life, she does not feel dissappointed by this fact.

HotMamaBen called the diva last night offering her $100 to be a ring girl at some fight. The diva respectfully declined. She still doesn't know what the job would entail but she's pretty sure she doesn't want to be a part of it.

Lessons Learned: Invitation Fun

They took forever to make, but the invitations are finally done!!! BitchNichole is still taking bets on whether or not her crushes will actually show up.
Don't be fooled by the message on the tummy this party is named such because of its connection to St. Patty's Day.

Lessons Learned: Matchmaking Horror Stories

Well... BitchNichole has been a single diva for quite some time now (her record is ten months), and to her pals this means one thing: time to start playing matchmaker. Unfortunately for BitchNichole this means spending time chilling with some pretty skanky men.
Because of her recent exposure to nasties the diva has decided to form a list for her pals to help them in their search for her "perfect" mate.

1. If the diva has spent the entire night avoiding his kisses it is highly unlikely that phrases such as "he really likes pussy" are going to encourage her to swap saliva with the gentlman in question. Why don't you just say "his name is Ted Bundy and he wants to bite off your nipple."

2. Please oh please do not hand her phone number out to any gentleman. And if you notice that she is giving him a wrong number just go with it don't try to correct her.

3. If you hear that their conversation is including such phrases as "Sprint is the bomb" the diva is bored out of her mind PLEASE SAVE HER!!!

4. No more "butt men" please. She has had her ass grabbed so many times in the last week (and might I add it's the same guy doing it every time) that she has lost all feeling in that region. And she doesn't even have a butt so more than anything she questions why these guys would even want to touch it.

5. Finally use some common sense. The diva has two distinct types. It's not confusing. If he doesn't look like a bad boy rocker or resemble Ralph Macchio in some way she's probably not going to be interested (there are some exceptions to this i.e. TheHorse, but the diva doesn't suggest experimenting with this please stay inside the lines).

Lessons Learned: Awaiting My Post-It

Recent happenings have led BitchNichole to the conclusion that she may have well just found her Berger (mostly episode 2 of Season 6).

Unfortunately Rooms is in Iowa and locked the dvd's in her room before departing. Now BitchNichole is completely dependant upon her memory to figure out how to get herself out of this one.

Lessons Learned: MyRyan's Doppelganger

Wow scary! They're almost the same person! Ever wonder why the diva can't help but dig Ryans? After chilling with the guy on the left she definitely missed the guy on the right.

Lessons Learned: Random Musings

BitchNichole is definitely getting her karma back ten-fold for her treatment of a certain gentleman.

She hopes the man that once hurt her is constantly getting his come-uppance. He will never be able to suffer enough.

You know that one best friend you'll always secretly be in love with? On her way home from class BitchNichole passed a silver mustang while listening to Stand By Me and silently but desperately missed their late night drives.

Anyone up to go Marple-hunting in Lincoln this weekend? It is sure to be amusing at her expense.

These boys really need to stop doing and saying things that make BitchNichole smile and fall in love with them all over again.

Casey Affleck in 200 Cigarettes = perfection.

ProfessorNerd keeps drawing things on the board that look more and more like male genitalia in class. Or is just that BitchNichole and BitchParis have dirty minds?

Boy Meets World gave the diva a panic attack today.

BitchNichole must remember to send Strawberry her glasses... really.

She must also remember to Enya SquirrelAss before she gets to her first.

The more she pulls away the closer she wants to be. That scares her.

BitchNichole is happy she was able to make the old ladies in yoga last night feel proud. She hopes they went home and bragged to their families (really she's not being sarcastic here).
