Dear Diary,
My brother has made a career out of studying for the LSATs. Apparently he has a LSAT fire lit under his butt. I have no fire under my butt. No pressure though, right? I mean, he's 22, and I'm 20. Plenty of time.
After a rousing 30-40 person thanksgiving dinner in Snohomish, Alex popped in a learn to breakdance DVD, to help make the family time more educational. Like 8 of my cousins were all bopping around, attempting to breakdance in the same small space, it was fairly entertaining. It's nice to have a big family to be dorky around. I can't imagine thanksgiving any other way.
Love,
Diana

Dear Diary,
My computer science homework is taking forever. I promised myself that after I finish part 3 out of the 5 I get to reward myself with a bath and a pack of skittles. yipee!
My roommate complains about my music. I told her, fine, put on something else, but it needs to be sad, but hopeful for the future. She says she doesn't have that genre in Itunes. it's a necessary genre though. Believe it or not sometimes I just don't feel like the Black Eyed Peas. Speaking of music, hot damn the shrek 2 soundtrack is amazing. I've been on a shrek 2 kick for a few weeks now and it's going pretty well. Still haven't seen the movie, but I'm sure it's amazing.
I feel better when I wear my LC golf hat. It looks good with everything. Feels good with everything.
Love,
Diana

Dear Diary,
I swear to god, this room is so cold i am about one degree away from sticking my hairdryer under my shirt.
I've been trying for about the past 5 years now to be a nicer person. Give people more credit, be less judgemental, ect. But I find it incredibly hard to be nice when I read things like "Kimberly Stewart to wed Talan Torrieno" Just in case you were wondering, Kimberly Stewart is Rod Stewarts 26 year old daughter famous for absolutely nothing except hanging around with Paris Hilton, who is also famous for nothing. Talan is the 19 year old star of Laguna Beach. That's right, the reality show about highschoolers. Well, giraffelike 26 year old Kimberly and her 19 year old womanizing fiance have been dating for 6 weeks now and think it's time to jump the broom. What I want to know is, how is possible to be nice and nonjudgemental when discussing these two morons? "Yeah, I think what they've got is really special... Especially after that horrible accident, when they were in the back seat of Paris Hilton's Bentley and her drunk greek boyfriend crashed it into a parked car." It's impossible to be nice. Perhaps it's better to say nothing at all, which I am incapable of apparently. I hate that I know all of this information.
Love,
Diana

Dear Diary,
Why is doing homework SOOOOOOO hard for me. I'll think of fifty other things to do before I bring myself to start an essay. My room will be clean, I will be clean, my website will be updated, my laundry will be done, and all my friends will have gotten a call from me before I can bring myself to start my homework. There should be a drug for this.
Speaking of mind altering substances, you know what drives me insane? When people who are playing beer pong pretend that they don't want to drink. Like getting plastered wasn't the goal all along. Maybe it's because I'm waiting till my 21st birthday to have my first taste of beer, but I just could not get into the spirit of the cutthroat game of beer pong last night. There was so much yelling of obscenities, so much fighting over what the "house rules" were, so many friendships being shattered because one teammate wasn't pulling his or her weight. I couldn't get into it, I felt like the ultimate party pooper.
I keep getting these e-mails from my mountains, and they're saying, "Diana we've got so much snow it's a crime that you're not here!" So I wanted to let all of my favorite Oregon and Washington residents know that I am now accepting applications for snowboarding buddies. If you're Portland, I've got all sorts of gas money... And if you're Washington, don't worry about the ride baby just tell me when and where to come get you.
Love,
Diana
