My Favorite Subject: Awkwierdness

So I am not so sure how a blog about the adventures of my thumb can continue. But I assure my two followers (one is me) that I will continue. But the point of today's post is to get you all excited about something I am stoked about: the opportunity to make people feel extremely uncomfortable.

Which brings us to the word of the day:

Awkwierd

- Jon-Erik is the creator of this word, giving birth to the fantastic phrase our freshman

year of college together. It went through some pretty good times

but sort of has faded out. So I am trying to bring it back

in honor of this holiday.

So I challenge you all:

Use this word.

So I am in this class called Aquatic Plants and the Environment. If you are student at U of A and can use this class in your major, I recommend it. Everyone gets an A. You can do whatever you want during class. I personally play Robot Unicorn until my computer dies, and then leave. My friend Nandi watches baseball. We talk and make fun of this one sorority girl in the class - the class has a unanimous consensus that her brain is empty. We create the exams for the class. The class before the exam we make the questions we want on the tests and then when we actually take the test, we can cheat. Our teacher straight up left the room and told us to cheat, and then never came back. Hahaha. And we get to see cool plants like the Victoria regia. I really want to ride one of those. or live on one. or something.... so cool. I just wish all classes were like this.

But so anyways, back to my thumbs. Me and a few other girls always wait for like 40 min for Aquatic Plants to start and always have these rather feminist or female-related conversations. Well, today my thumbs just couldn't wait for "International Make Someone Feel Uncomfortable Day". Us girls were having a fascinating conversation about women who are too young to be having babies and getting married... and well, we all know where these conversations go... to the awkwardness and pain of giving birth. I expressed my freaked-out-ness of something coming out down there (but in not so vague terms) and assisted my comment with some really great hand movements... unfortunately I didn't notice in the room of 5 girls, that there was an awkward Asian grad student, a guy. And, well, my hands along with my comments made him run from the room.

The moral of this story is that you should all participate in "International Make Someone Feel Uncomfortable Day". Its also on my mom's birthday, Nov. 19th, so I have to really come up with something special for the Donna we all know and love. So please, all of you, come up with something you can do to make the people around you feel extremely uncomfortable. And please share it with me... comment here with your ideas. or come back after the fact and tell me. or just tell me about the awkwardness in your life.... it is the cherry on top in my life.

And thumbs up to all you who participate in this most wonderful holiday..... I wish you all good luck!!!!

- I am so glad I am a girl. I think urinals are very awkward.
