whew lordy

wow has it been awhile.....let's see recap recap...successfully celebrated my 21st birthday (aka got completely drunk every weekend).

spent some long awaited, much needed quality time with my homie slice fo life (yea I said it) Bree. Also spent some time with my favorite guy Brandon boo..(can't believe he's 9!! he's soo tall, he comes up to my boobs! which sometimes makes hugging kind of awkward.

Now I'm at school...survived the first week..barely. I like all my classes except my month long Mass Extinctions class...BLecccH!! so confusing. I really want to adopt my African American Women in History professor as my aunt...she's amazing!

So yesterday I discovered Tai-Pei frozen chinese dinners....i must say they save lives...pretty good for frozen food. however I made the mistake of getting garlic shrimp w/veggies ...i've been blasting off for hours..should've known better..garlic and I have never gotten along. i guess it's a good thing my friend didn't come over..how embarrassing..but still sad he never called....boo.

I did absolutely nothing productive tonight...so sad. been in one of my moods lately...got way too drunk saturday night and made a HUUUUGE mistake that i would pay big $$ to take back...ugh...I'm such an idiot..don't know what happened. as a result I probably won't be drinking for awhile...actually I have no $ ....$ for alcohol is the main reason i'm going to apply for jobs...so sad.It's weird how some people from my past decided to reappear at the same time...i feel like it was planned or something.

damn you garlic!!! jeez...

I also need $ to get these groucho marx eyebrows waxed with...oy vey

watching Tool Acadamy right now (so bad I know) and there's a guy on it who i swear i've seen before...interesting...hmm..

i love coco puffs..so yummers...perfect meal for anytime.

all for now...

yay for birthdays!

today's my 21st birthday!!

that's all for now....i'll post more after the celebrations

looking for love in all the wrong places

thanks to my new "sleep schedule" I am able to watch Saved by the Bell in the morning from 6-8am. watching it makes me realize no wonder dustin Diamond is so fucked up as an adult. I would be too if my only successful tv career was based on a character that was constantly made fun. whatevs I guess.

Seriously considering sucking it up and taking German next spring semester. watched the movie "Goodbye Lenin" (sooooo good!!!) inmy geography class this past week....made me think that ,aybe taking German won't be as bad as I think. mainly because of how closely english sounds to german. Hopefully me having french and german experience going into grad school will up my chances of actually getting in since my gpa sucks so bad. idk.

realized today that I probably shouldn't have bailed on the school's bookstore job fair..there weren't any cashier jobs open and the only job I would've considered taking is a clothing associate job or whatever they call it. basically i'd be working in the clothing section and directing ppl through there and blah blah. idk and i was not having a good day that day so i was not in the mood....although i bailed the first day too, but that's not the point. except i did pick up 2 applications from stores downtown. hopefully i'll get one of them.

i must say columbia businesses have THEY worst commercials i have ever seen....99% of them are so painful to watch....so sad.

i've definitely become like claudia from the babysitters club with my candy drawer.
Watching this episode of Laws&Order:SVU about a transgendered girl. very interesting...the girl is sooo cute!! except it was kind of awkward because when Benson and Stabler went to talk to her for the first time her mom opened her door and she was putting on her bra. Since she was still transitioning she had not developed breasts yet so she still had a boy's chest. idk I just thought it was weird that they showed that since the detectives already knew she was transitioning. overall pretty good episode, idk if they've ever covered problems transgendered people go through.

21st bday in a few weeks!!! soo excited to drink all day! definitely buying myself a bottle of champagne to celebrate.
supposed to be going to dc to visit le former bf-current amigo in late august.....planning has been an adventure on its own. super excited so i'm trying to not tell too many ppl just in case i end up not going, also trying my hardest to keep the trip from my mother...which is really hard to do, because i already tell her everything and then usually whatever i don't tell her she somehow finds out. how i have no idea. i've been on le amigo's coattails making sure i can really use his free plane tickets and making sure he books my flights in enough time.....so far it hasn't been working lol. but it's ok for now guess....idk since we've been friends for awhile then dated i still know how he is and how he operates, so im not freaking out. it's funny how much more you learn about someone when you date them...


BREAKING NEWS!!!!! the guy who played Dennis Duffy on 30 Rock (and Horatio Caine's younger brother on CSI:Miami....probably watch too much tv....recognized the woman who plays Holly on the office in law&order:svu AND ci episodes; and recognized ed helm's (andy bernard) voice on a online travel website commercial...jeez my life is sad) was on Law&Order: SVU!!!!! (sort of freaking out right now....i find him somewhat attractive) ok done being sadly super excited all by my lonesome in my room.

new favorite word: tittilated (must find a way to work that into everyday conversation)

love the way my painted toesies look....nothing like a 5am pedicure.
i feel weird following celebrities on twitter....but still cool.
ok music time!!!! found this on my john legend pandora station:
two of my favorite ppl!!!

YUH-HUH-MURRRS

new fave thing: ham/canadian bacon + green peppers pizza. had shakespeare's today TRES TRES DELICIOSO!!! super fresh green peppers..so tastey. can't wait for le refund check to get herre so I can finally get rid of the raggedy caveman sized tv I have now. flat screen here i come!!! and of course after spending half the summer yearning for my dvd player as soon as I get the cords I don't want to watch any of my movies. I just want my Golden Girls!!!!


found out what SMH stands for....3 years after everyone else. also found out what jive turkey means..not quite what I thought. oh to wells. the past 2 weeks or so i've really been wanting to pierce something...not sure what though...i don't even want to for aesthetic purposes, i just want to do just for the hell of it.

still not looking forward to grad school..bleecch. idk where i want to go for sure. damn gpa.
i want to go to the lake sooo bad. i really need to put operation make friends with someone who has a lakehouse into affect before the summer is over. i misses the lake.

sitting here watching "friends" ...definitely not by choice..don't really feel like rapelling(sp?) down from my mountain top loft bed to change the channel....especially when I dont have that many to choose from. i really should stop complaining.....we had our Africa lecture today in geography class today....SOOO SAD!! i just want to reverse all the colonialism that took place....having very bitter feelings towards europe today..ugh. it's so sad.

this song always makes me feel better..so inspirational....and it doesn't hurt that my boo sings it

good good good

soooo things have been going pretty well for me lately. new computer, moneys, my heart problem isn't serious, my confidence is skyhigh..I think that's it so far. oh my geography class is going really really well...I always did like geography. I'm thinking about taking a GIS mapping class..key word thinking. definitely getting my heart tattoo. fa shos.

saw "away we go" with the bestie a few days ago..soooo good!! I'm really proud of both john krasinski and maya rudolph for breaking out and doing it successfully. they were amazing!!! and the soundtrack was really good too. so on this awesome blog there is a reoccurring post called "happy lists" (i believe...i may have made that up). and she has people submit a list of ten things that make them happy. I started one weeks ago ..i got to 15 or so. but i decided to write a new one without thinking. so herrre it goes:

Sydney's top ten happy list:
1. deep, passionate, knee buckling kisses
2. heart to hearts with friends
3. food
4. hugs
5. good music
6. my favorite tv shows
7. christmas time
8. naps
9. the fam + ginger
10. sweetpea body spray


yay!!! wasn't that hard.

i guess that's all.

"like a discotheque?"

sooo I think I'll start with the obvious..RIP MICHAEL JACKSON!!!!!! the shock has subsided...but still surprised. i was in the car with my bestie and we gotten text messages about it within 30 seconds of each other...we yelled for a few minutes. Can't believe it...no I'll admit he was a bit strange, but he made some damn good music, his dancing was CRA-AAAZZY and was an amazing singer. so I thought I'd share my 2 favorite MJ songs (they're in no particular order, I just couldn't pick an all time favorite..enjoy!








i forgot about this one until it popped up on the "related videos" thing on yoube..another fave!


I was so sad today because I finished my package of Twizzlers' Cherry Pull-n-Peel..so good...speaking of candy today during my break in my art history class I went to buy some peanut m&ms from the vending machine..i had a total of 85cents in my wallet and candy is a $1..whhhy!!! that is too much for vending machine candy. I remember in high school when they raised the price of vending machine candy from 60 cents to 75! 15cents makes a big difference when your in high school and you have no job...oh well..

lately i've been finding myself making random refrences to 30 Rock and The Office (2 of my favorite shows) i always laugh at myself then i think how sad it is..it's been on a an almost daily thing now...I don't know where Tina Fey drew the Liz Lemon character from, but she is genius! Sometimes i feel I have liz lemon tendencies...but liz lemon is cool so it's ok.
found out today that it's probably a good idea to change cloth band-aids after a day..or they start to smell like feet.. learned that the hard way.

I am currently addicted to this website, it's hilarious!!! (ok most of the time...i'd say the texts could be broken down like this: 60% hilarious, 50% gross, and 10% random or stupid ) jeez it's hard to type with a band-aid on the top part of your finger...mb I shouldn't have covered my knuckle..oh well.

A long long time ago...

'Ello! ...it always feels weird saying "hello" to a non-someone...anyways where should I start? how about the most heart-wrenching? ok!

For the past week my very bestest bestie in the whole wide world is visiting her le-boyfriend in Cali. i was really worried they weren't going to see each other til august....we can't be having that...but it all worked out!!! they are sooooooo cute together!! yay for love!!

right now I'm watching ghostbusters 2..loves it! not as much as ghostbusters 1, but it'll do. can I just say that the whole concept of grad school is dumb and overrated?! it is! and I really really don't want to go...I hate to say it but the main reason I'm going is so I could live in another city...and to eventually make good $$. the only problem I'm running into is my rediculously horrible of a gpa...i decided to stay an extra year to keep working on it..it sucks. being an average student in high school was ok...but that definitely doesn't cut it once you get to college. UGH! and this whole OPERATION FIND SYDNEY A COMPANION is NOT working out whatsoever...although I guess it doesn't help that no is here in columbia for the summer and I really don't put myself out there for the guys I really want to date..blurg. It's just that whenever I've been in any kind of relationship with a guy he's always approached me...I've never had to really do the chasing. I guess I should be grateful for that, but it doesn't help my situation...ugh again.

I have no idea what i want to do with my life...I know I want to be a curator...I want to end up in either d.c. chicago or nyc....idk

tomorrow I have to go see a cardiologist because apparently i have a rapid heartbeat. I'm hoping i don't have heart disease...then i'll have to hear all the crap about excercising and eating right again....not really up for hearing that again.

1 1/2 months until my 21st birthday? I'm suuuuper excited to get piss ass wasted drunk legally! can't wait! not sure if i want a party or just go bar hopping...not really big on the bar scene here, but I guess I have some time to think it about. i know it sounds really sad, but I really want a bf by the time my bday rolls around...or at least a guy who I'm dating exclusively....not really sure WHY but it would be nice to have one.....is it weird to fb friend someone who i've never spoken to, but who's seen me on an almost daily basis? i'll admit that I request ppl who've i've never said two words to sometimes, but this guy i definitely have a crush on this guy...he's the epitome of my type.

i have to admit the plain white t's always come up with some catchy songs/videos.this one made me tear up..it's great:




(i forgot they sang that "hate is a strong a word" song ...loves it!)

this song has some pretty good memories associated with it...it's still hard to listen to without thinking about those memories...but it's all good...still an awesome to listen to..especially when it's played on the guitar




I guess that's all for now...adios!
