Haircut - April 7, 2014, 5:00

Been busy helping my friend find internship/shadow opportunities/career advice today. Going to eat veggies and hummus while watching the last two episodes of Teen Wolf. Need to get coins for laundry. I really want a nice laundry hamper/sorter system. There are some nice basket systems, but I want lids, so that the smell is contained.

Then there's Pottery Barn and antique shops and other even more expensive options. I need to get a job. Feeling better now. Going to order my textbooks. Hopefully I can get them all from the library. Still need to make a few more awkward phone calls to relatives to help my friend. Then going to do a face peel.

Just angry cleaned the kitchen. I'm so sick of having to take all the dishes out of the dishwasher, scrub them, and then put them back into the dishwasher in an organized manner. I need to have a talk with my roommates about scrubbing the dishes before putting them in the dishwasher and not overloading the dishwasher. I do not want any more of my dishes being chipped. I do not want to reach into the cupboard and find food encrusted on dishes because they could not take the time to scrub the dishes before putting them in the dishwasher.

Whiteboard
1. Scrub the dishes before putting them in the dishwasher.
2. Do not overload the dishwasher. I do not want my dishes getting chipped. Also, water needs room to get up and clean the dishes, which will not happen when they are on top of each other.
3. When you spill, wipe it up. I do not want crumbs and stickiness on the counter anymore.
4. When you use the stove, wet a paper towel or sponge with white vinegar to clean up the oil, preferably before the stove cools down when it is easier to clean.

I'll probably omit some of the why's on the whiteboard and just stick with the do's, so that I don't get people saying it's not their fault that my dishes are chipped or that I'm making a big deal over nothing. I can just tell them the why's if they ask. I also don't want them to feel like I'm talking down to them. I just want a clean kitchen. I don't care why it wasn't clean before, do it now.

I'm going to try doing the dishes more often now, and I'll leave the trash to my roommates. I'll probably still have to do the dusting, since they don't seem to think that's necessary. But if I could just get a clean kitchen, my life would be a lot easier.

Just finished vacuuming my room and switched out the vacuum bag.
Woke up and watched the Olympics Men's Figure Skating Short Program.
Commented about ONTD.
Read this post: http://ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com/85692126.html and tweeted tons about him, so hopefully one of my 17 followers will be inspired to look him up and spread his story.
Rediscovered Florrie thanks to this post: http://ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com/85694307.html#comments
Shared a story on Facebook about how now there are more options for gender, like trans, for profile info.

Sill have to do:

-laundry
-groceries (Safeway edition)
-take out trash
-clean bathroom
-shower
-make hair appointment
-order products to reduce acne scar visibility
-make car appointment to get lights changed
-buy jeans
-buy foundation and angled brush
-call J back

I stayed up a bit too late last night, so I have to make sure to go to bed on time tonight. Skating starts at 7:00am tomorrow. Also, I bought this trash can the other day, and I'm super happy with it. The lid's really convenient, because I can set stuff on top of it, and not worry about knocking things I don't want into the trash. I don't use it for food waste cause I don't want my room to smell, just things like Kleenix and pencil shavings. You can tell I'm no longer a teen by the fact that this is something I think is interesting. Anyway, I wanted to buy a laundry hamper or sorter as well, but all the nice ones were like $50, so I'm going to try to find a deal online. If I can't get a wooden one, I'll probably buy this and then something like this to hold delicates and items that need to go to the launders. I also need to buy a wardrobe or dresser. I'm thinking about just buying another bookcase to use instead, but I'm undecided. Can't wait to live in a larger place.

Today I need to do:

-Dishes
-Vacuum
-Figure out what to do with the paper bags (recycle to be honest)
-Make advising appointment (may have to wait til Monday if not open)
-Ask Mom where I can get my tires filled
-Ask Mom to help me get my car's lights replaced (right blinker out, left dying)
-put clothes to give away in closet
-fold and put whites away
-sort through mags to recycle
-possibly buy new bookcase
-sort through clothes to give away
-dust

Do all this while listening to Throwing Shade or Welcome to Night Vale or Hyphenated-Lives.

Also, I caught up on SNK, and I am SO upset at Reiner and Bertholdt. Ymir and Krista/Historia are in grey spots for me right now. I really want to know more about Levi and Erwin's relationship. Until cannon proves otherwise, they are boyfriends. Although, now I'm leaning towards unrequited love, Levi->Erwin, though I don't want that to be why Levi joined the Scouting Legion. I love Jean and Armin's friendship. I'm really glad I didn't get into this manga right away, because it feels like one of those series that's best to read after at least the first arc is out because there's so much information that has to be revealed, especially with the world building, that it can be confusing. Still need to watch the anime. Also need to watch the last episode of Free!. I keep putting it off, but with a new special out, I really need to catch up.

Also still have to watch Sherlock Season 3, Doctor Who - 9 and 10, and the last half of that space cowboy show that's not Cowboy Bebop or anime. Also need to catch up on The Daily Show with John Stewart.

I'm probably going to end up watching a lot of classic British/American geek shows just because my friends like them and not because I want to. I definitely prefer E4 shows like My Mad Fat Diary and Skins or American teen shows like the O.C. or Freaks and Geeks. I wonder how Teen Wolf is doing this season? Maybe I'll watch it after all.... Also need to check out AHS: Coven and finish watching The Thick of It and then watch In the Loop.

But let's be honest, I'll probably do a couple chores while listening to Throwing Shade and then spend the rest of the nigh on tumblr and ONTD.

Catch up on SNK manga. Maybe Hirunaka no Ryuusei? Listen to all the Pop Queen's albums. I don't know how it happened, but I started listening to Katy Perry's Teenage Dream last night, and now I'm listening to Britney's Circus. I haven't been in the mood for pop music in forever, but I'm here for it. Maybe I'll pick up Beyonce's album at Starbucks today.

Still have to:

- grab laundry from dryer
- make advising appointment
- buy textbooks
- grocery shop
- get boots from parents
- shower
- make hair appointment
- spend 20 mins organizing room, putting clothes away

I ended up getting everyone books, save 2 of my brothers who got the gift of not having to get me a gift. I still need to get gifts for my roommates.

More worrisome, school starts up again next week, so I have to finish reading SNK before, so that I'm not all distracted when I'm supposed to be doing homework. I also have to get caught up on chores, mostly laundry, so that I'll have clothes to wear Monday.

Also, need to get my hair cut and possibly buy foundation. Make advising appointment, buy books (and notebooks/folders) for class. Go through clothes and sell/give away. (Or at least store in large closet)

Going to listen to an episode of Throwing Shade Podcast and go to bed by 11:00.

(my roommate's so upset at me. i made her watch teen wolf, yet i haven't watch who for her. i don't even
like teen wolf any more. season 3 ruined the show for me. i miss the camp.)

Cleaning's really great for feeling accomplished until you notice a different area of your place needs fixing. Or when you let things build up, or you have to clean up after your roommates. the worst is when i have to redo chores because they didn't do it right. (please, please scrub the dishes before loading the dishwasher, or they will come out unclean.) it's really frustrating to live with people who make fun of me for wanting things to be cleaned a certain way. i know, be thankful that they do anything.
