THIS WILL BE A LAME POST. THIS IS NOT INTERESTING. THIS IS NOT INTERESTING, BUT IT IS A POST.

E's Turn: A Second Attempt at Blogging

I didn't know how to begin this blog entry, so I let Harrison begin it for me... with a haiku.

So here it is:

Alabama is:

closer to home than Europe

Hippopatamus

Recently, the blog has been a lie. While Shelby and I have essentially remained in town (by in town I mainly mean in the state of Alabama), we have not been bored together all week. This obviously poses some difficulty in updating the blog about our time together... since there has been almost no time together. There is however, some excitement today... E has dyed her hair. I'd include a picture, but I feel dumb adding/taking it... so I won't. Again, our lives prove to be way less boring than we intended them to be. And now, to conclude this incredibly stimulating post, another haiku with an anti-Europe sentiment.

You're welcome, Europe

a thank you card would be nice

World War II, no sweat

and another, less anti-Europe haiku:

Cats who play jazz:

The only thing Europe's got

Lookin' at you, France

Weekend Update! (not actually)

The title of this post is actually kind of a lie. E and I did not spend the weekend together, therefore, we cannot update about our weekend together. Instead, I will update about our Monday night! We shared a perfect meal, which, according to an Italian man on the Food Network, "A truly satisfying meal makes you want to go home and make love." This was questionable to E and I, and our meals were not actually perfect, so we did not have to test the theory... I had a peanut butter and jelly, tortilla chips and a granola bar. E had some kind of microwaveable baked potato (sketchy, if you ask me). She just left the dorm to go eat some sweet foods (a plan I approve of whole-heartedly). And now I am eating some of Kellie's Dove chocolates, blogging about it, and doing laundry. In case you couldn't tell, we lead a wildly exciting existence. But, it is Monday and the rest of the week promises to be more exciting! (I will not tell you why it will be more exciting, this way your imagination gets some exercise!)

Until something truly blog-worthy arises, I will stop this miserable attempt at entertaining you and leave you with this quote from a Dove chocolate wrapper, "Remind yourself to relax." (I got that quote twice, so I figured people needed to hear it).

Day One/ E's First Post

Hello from the same place we've always been/will be... the sofa!! An incredibly eventful ending to an incredibly eventful (really, actually) day. The adventures/headaches of the day include (but are not limited to):

1. Extremely messy roommate break-ups (see number 2)

2. News of inappropriate teacher-student relationships/hook-ups (JUICY)

NOTE: Neither Shelby NOR E NOR any other resident of Ridgecrest N424 is currently/has previously been in any sort of inappropriate teacher-student relationship/participated in any sort of inappropriate teacher-student hook-up.

3. Cat-fights. Teenage pregnancy. Eavesdropping. DRAMA.

NOTE: Neither Shelby NOR E NOR any other resident of Ridgecrest N424 is currently knocked up...

4. More Gilmore Girls, BIG SURPRISE.

5. Chocolate Stalemate. Due to increasing amounts of stubbornness, there is still no chocolate in our mouths/bellies. And still nothing to remove the taste of ham roll-up.

6. Shelby also physically attacked E because of "libel"... WHATEVS

Try as we may to be boring, our lives have clearly proved otherwise. Nothing but excitement going down in N424 today (that sentence sounds sarcastic, but that sentence is unbelievably sincere, really).

The Beginning

First, let us introduce ourselves. We are Shelby and E, two University of Alabama students documenting our semester spent in Tuscaloosa, Alabama (where we spend every semester). This blog is the brain child of Shannon O'Sheal (shannonosheal.blogspot.com), a lovely friend spending her spring semester in Spain. Our other friend, Colleen Cusick (colleencusick.blogspot.com) is spending her semester in London. Shannon decided the best way to stay informed of our riveting daily activities would be to create a blog detailing our lives. We may not be abroad, but we are still fun. Just wait and see.
