Day Two.

Yay for surveys! This one is from Jordan Cwierz's blog from today and I'm doing it because it's not writing about my boring life. Well it kind of is, but in a different way. I'll probably do that after anyway though just to keep a record of what I did, be it boring. Onward:

"18 Things to do Before Turning 18" survey, by Reese's Puffs:

1. Ride the world's biggest roller coaster.
Well I haven’t been on the world’s biggest roller coaster, but I’ve at least ridden a few. Not much of a daredevil here…

2. Bungee jump!
Maybe someday…but how can they expect someone to do this before turning 18?

3. Score the winning goal/basket.
There’s definitely a reason I’m a rower/swimmer rather than a basketball(or almost any other sport which involves throwing/hitting a ball) player…. NEXT!

4. Win an award, trophy, or prize.
Doesn’t everyone at least have a “Student of the Month” type award from elementary school…it’s kind of impossible not to get some kind of award/trophy/prize, so CHECK (count=1)

5. Learn an instrument.
w00t, flute and baritone! And I can also play Mary Had a Little Lamb on the piano! CHECK (count=2)

6. Go back stage at a gig.
What kind of gig is this? Because I’m sure I’ve been backstage at a band concert if that counts…half-check! (count=2.5)

7. Meet your idol.
Well I kind of have to figure out who my idol is first…but the answer is probably no unless I decide it’s my mom.

8. Play a part in your favorite TV show.
Seeing as my favorite TV show has been canceled (oh the sadness, why Veronica Mars was the BESTSHOWEVERRRR!), this is very unfeasible for me. And I don’t watch TV at college so I haven’t found a new favorite TV show. Fail.

9. Meet someone with your own name.
Does it count if it’s spelled differently? I’mma go with yes…CHECK (count=3.5)

10. Make a discovery.
Seriously? Ummm…nope. And I probably never will.

11. Get away with the perfect practical joke.
Hmmm…another tough one. I haven’t pulled any real practical jokes in my life, and if I had, I’m sure they would not be CLOSE to perfect.

12. Own a pointless collection.
OOH Pokemon cards…me too! And I have some stamps and key-chains and bookmarks and lots more pointless junk collections! CHECK (count=4.5)

13. Invent a word that makes it into the dictionary.
Does this mean invent the word before you’re 18 and hope it makes it into the dictionary in your lifetime, or get the word into the dictionary before you turn 18? Quite confusing…I guess it doesn’t matter since I have been 18 for a while now, and I haven’t made up any dictionary-worthy words.

14. Conquer your biggest fear.
The answer to this question is similar to #7 so just refer back there…

15. Raise money for charity.
Er--I do believe I have. CHECK (count=5.5)

16. Pass your driving the first time.
Yay driving! CHECK (count 6.5)

17. Complete a road trip coast to coast.
Ha! It doesn’t specify which coast! I love loopholes…and the Great Lakes State! CHECK (count=7.5)

18. Reach 18 years of age.
Annnnnndddd…drumroll please…CHECK! How climactic, lol.

For a Grand Total of: 8.5/18
Wow, that's almost half!

Well, today was fairly productive if I do say so. I had a nice row this morning--the water was actually smooth as glass today, yay for no wind!, I had lunch with my RA, I took a nap (YES, naps ARE productive...they help you stay AWAKE during class!), I got a new ID card so it won'tbe stupid and work in some places but not others, and I bought Zyrtec for my allergies, and some Peeps just for fun. I avoided the jelly beans this time, too, since it was a little too much last time.

I didn't, however, get any homework done, which is not good. Oh BEDA, why must you be so entertaining!? At least I'll find lots of new blogs to read and I'll NEVER BE BORED AGAIN! What a concept, haha. Well, I'm off to do some more time-wasting, even though I should be sleeping! I'll be here again tomorrow...
