And why is it that no one uses them anymore? If anyone has an answer please post a comment. After my evening commute today, I realized how upset I am about this. I'm pretty sure if you didn't use your signal when you took your driving test it was an automatic FAIL. <br /><br />Am I supposed to know that you are going to cut me off? Sometimes it's easy to tell, only because I've seen those crazy lane changers out there. I think the kids are calling it "weaving". News flash: YOU'RE NOT COOL. You actually look pretty stupid. Why do you think the signal is located in a convenient, accessible area? Correct, so you won't use it. <br /><br />Just in case any of you out there have forgotten how to use your signal I've put together a short tutorial with pictures for better understanding. <br /><br />When turning LEFT keep your left hand on the wheel at 9 o'clock and stick your fingers out (they should reach, if not I suggest studying <a href="http://www.golocalnet.net/drive/handsigs.htm">this</a>) so your index finger is above and middle finger is below the signal, like so. Simply flick the signal DOWN, you will hear a click and the pretty light will flash and there ya go, by golly you've used your signal! Your signal will conveniently click off on its own after you have made your turn.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQ3mNk2Lol73UYV3_a2CdBQAYRJ2hpYQ9pIAMrRcuZG3tj01y8sGivhq8TBaLzYHcBvxt3nmz3fX7eGppoJTMglNxa4hMo0N2DTQuH-ZPMtaZ1tGGrfg_9EZ7W30TGo5kegwzG4_jO5rM/s1600/IMG_0103.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 299px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQ3mNk2Lol73UYV3_a2CdBQAYRJ2hpYQ9pIAMrRcuZG3tj01y8sGivhq8TBaLzYHcBvxt3nmz3fX7eGppoJTMglNxa4hMo0N2DTQuH-ZPMtaZ1tGGrfg_9EZ7W30TGo5kegwzG4_jO5rM/s400/IMG_0103.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5505035866564358162" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsNgE5w9KxyBTUK1iXiIDJ8XS3jgBT_1b4vQtiLhU9aRFgiuVLnFFRraPqgaQfZQAvbHnnkSjxVXQtbzQqWOM14pGqqb8E_sXZDMmtCV6BNuRiZbPkhNuuVGx01sFiyfHYjEKx7i9KQHw/s1600/IMG_0100.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 299px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsNgE5w9KxyBTUK1iXiIDJ8XS3jgBT_1b4vQtiLhU9aRFgiuVLnFFRraPqgaQfZQAvbHnnkSjxVXQtbzQqWOM14pGqqb8E_sXZDMmtCV6BNuRiZbPkhNuuVGx01sFiyfHYjEKx7i9KQHw/s400/IMG_0100.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5505035874060479298" /></a><br /><br />Follow the same instructions when turning RIGHT, except flick the signal UP, like so.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyuadLzGr9kxCHf70mU4AY6Q4GSHDedT3cY-8XGUZlcQCdq3kaBxIiTlikEEPZaBEf-SlqWkcEeHZkOIeV2OkHLYvNBRkWPO1-D-8G0DY-CsFliBRnPd2IBaF-2uFWhJmgzKoBMPmKrIo/s1600/IMG_0094.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 299px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyuadLzGr9kxCHf70mU4AY6Q4GSHDedT3cY-8XGUZlcQCdq3kaBxIiTlikEEPZaBEf-SlqWkcEeHZkOIeV2OkHLYvNBRkWPO1-D-8G0DY-CsFliBRnPd2IBaF-2uFWhJmgzKoBMPmKrIo/s400/IMG_0094.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5505035852096203842" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihHXSQdlETTlLu-OvKXa9tMHXQMSKTpJQ4Kt6vbRr7ImPxyQOQDZZanfU94ijmWqJZUfeLiahfLKrsWtCmw1lK15mKz_Lnfj54mZj3UtC2VBOFO4WwcdN4hZOIieQTzCT6ssNBS-hhiVA/s1600/IMG_0098.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 299px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihHXSQdlETTlLu-OvKXa9tMHXQMSKTpJQ4Kt6vbRr7ImPxyQOQDZZanfU94ijmWqJZUfeLiahfLKrsWtCmw1lK15mKz_Lnfj54mZj3UtC2VBOFO4WwcdN4hZOIieQTzCT6ssNBS-hhiVA/s400/IMG_0098.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5505035859259017426" /></a><br /><br />I hope this helps.

Well start buyin' more folks cause the lucky person who buys the 1,000,000,000th mp3 gets a $10,000 gift certificate to iTunes! Imagine all of the media you could buy with that. Seriously. That's more than my car is worth and probably my net worth. Let's see, in my iTunes purchased section I have a total of 76 songs.

But then I couldn't figure out if I felt sorry for the poor bloke who was stupid enough to try to eat a goddamn <span style="font-weight: bold;">9 LB PIZZA BURGER</span>. So wait, I'm confused... It's a pizza <span style="font-style: italic;">and</span> a burger? Oh, I get it. They used 2 full blown pizzas as the buns. Nope, don't feel sorry for you. As if Americanized pizza wasn't fattening enough. We had to go and put a cow patty in the middle. I'm trying to do the math here... According to Yahoo! Answers, 1 pizza approx. = 1.5 lbs. x 2 = 3 lbs. So your telling me you tried to eat a 6 lb burger and 3 lbs of pizza at the same time?! Way to go, man. No wonder you wound up in the ER.

Like true artists, we try to keep a non-materialistic motive, but that never really works out. We like to talk about fashion... I mean what do you expect? We're girls. Which means we love shoes. And if there is one post-college thing I can conclude about the two of us, it's that she likes sneakers, and I like heels. Its kinda like how <a href="http://snowwayjose.blogspot.com/">Keanan</a> feels about.... tittays?<br /><br />Nevertheless, <a href="http://yessplease.blogspot.com/">Jess</a> is a street sneaker connoisseur, and a beautiful stiletto to me is pretty much an aphrodisiac.

Luckily, the Moving Gods invented something called "Housewarming Parties", where the new house inhabitants invite their friends and family over to drink and celebrate the new home.<br /><br />HYPOTHESIS:<br /><br />One house mover's hard work is completely paid off by an excellent housewarming party.<br /><br />EXPERIMENT:<br /><br />Throw a "Housewarming Party" where friends can fully basque in the freshly personalized, new home. Coincidentally, my good friends Rachel and Maddy also experienced a move around the same time which resulted in a Friday night "Housewarming Party" and M & R's and a Saturday "Housewarming Party" at Amy's. <br /><br />RESULTS:<br /><br />Nuff' Said.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHYvI9o5VOdRnR4a7QsgfY4LOw2rjW6oQrCJSEJLgb5aDyDkBPs4mJ7GkZWi1K5MApR3UcYqJHokdnZFEH9Twmg3PEWBVj0O4noWTGVQmYcQV18Fibaenwj-woLrQD-tJXC4P5hnx7zLQ/s1600-h/IMG_1662.JPG"><img style="display:block;

We tied my mattress to the top of Jenna's car with left over cable and sketchily drove through the streets of PB at 1 AM.<br /><br />RESULTS:<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Late night mess = No sleep before finals.

My life has just been so eventful and over dosed with blog worthy situations, I didn't even have time to write! How sad.<br /><br />I now intend to make that up to you. <br /><br />During one of my hot off the books conversations with my new friend (whom I will not mention their name for privacy reasons) we concluded that life is like one big research project. After all of my years in school it would only be appropriate to apply the scientific method to my life experiences.

And I'm sorry. This post will be short, sweet, and to the point.<br /><br />It became a pressing matter, when I realized that only just now this song entered my life.<br /><br />Every now and then I "stumble upon" a song that makes me feel like I left my body and went to another planet. When I listen to the buttery intersections of beats, clicks and choir, my mind has the ability to completely abandon my body and I am immediately engulfed into a familiar realm of lucid happiness. I love this song a lot. That's it. <br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dxeCZ1Q2CMvRDG7dq7dUNhWbc44pQRfai6rC2O7Q4f-Plk6kWD004RVt6e6bzGkFmohglQhil1yLtl0jqkUxQ' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe>Amyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06868219205605074418noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6357021103798938682.post-16363378647229887362009-05-28T14:15:00.001-07:002009-05-28T14:22:18.502-07:00Thanks for stalking me, Mom.<span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);font-size:130%;" ><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">I am officially the queen of awkward.

Don't worry we all understand that it's the right thing to do, starting your life after college with a "degree-inspired" job position is what's expected of graduates. These days, finding a personally satisfying job in San Diego with a marketing degree is like... well no metaphor equivalent to that stress level comes to mind, but I'll just say becoming a carny might be a better option.<br /><br />So just to prove to Al that San Diego has other options for career goals, I threw a couple of ideas her way...<br /><br />OPTION #1: Found this one on craigslist.org (love that site)...<br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">"We can only pay a very minimal salary at this point, but we promise copy and credit, and a potential for this to turn into a long series of projects with the possibility of higher pay a long way down the road. This is a terrific opportunity for anyone just starting out.<br /><br />By this Friday afternoon (5/22), we need the following:<br /><br />1. We start from a shot of a character's hand with a blue-footed booby on it (we will provide the initial hand shot), and the camera pulls back very slowly away from the earth to reveal galaxies and the universe, all the while following the bird as he flies into infinity. This shot will last approx. 3 minutes.<br /><br />2. We need a fake time-lapse sequence of this same bird hatching from an egg and growing into adulthood. Would prefer for the background/environment to look like time-lapse, so we'd need the lighting changes of days passing and seasons changing, over the course of a year. Keep in mind that his feathers will have to go from baby chick feathers to adult ones, through several molting stages. Perhaps growing and dying flowers in the foreground, to signify the time passing? I don't know if there will be time for that.<br /><br />3. We need a shot of the Transformers fighting, but we will change their faces a bit. Similar style to the movie. Also refer to Narnia as a reference (the robot parts, not the animals). These shots will have to be photo-real in order to match the rest of our film, which is photographed with a film camera. I still don't know much about computers or animation, but I assume we need someone with a good familiarity with Photoshop, or maybe Flash or Shockwave Director.<br /><br />Thanks for your help, and if anyone has time to work on this, please have them email me!"</span><br /><br /><br />I thought Allison would like this one because she's always doing fun projects on Photoshop, but I guess not.<br /><br />OPTION #2: I actually thought this on was pretty realistic, seeing as how she lives DT (another craigs ad)..<br /><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">SAN DIEGO NIGHT CLUB SECURITY GUARD<br />Looking for people for nightclubs downtown and various other locations.

The emigration of another awesome person out of San Diego marks a sad day for all of us, but it just gives me a new #1 reason to visit Chi, a very close 2nd: meeting Lupe Fiasco, of course, and a little more distant 3rd: Prochnow and La la la loooooooke.<br /><br /></span></span></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 204, 204);">BYE ALLI - SAN!
