Yeah, I don’t like you

First of all, I’d like to thank everyone who wished me a happy birthday! I did end up doing all those things as planned, but let’s just say that the long anticipated Friday night rendezvous with JL did not turn out as expected. At all. I was definitely not anticipating any angry yelling and throwing up. -_- Anyways, my encounter with what a douchebag JL turned out and some other random annoying shit led to this list of why I probably don’t like you. Be prepared for some major cussing, you have been warned.

• Guys who lead girls on then try to play innocent

  Yeah, this one is definitely dedicated to the lameass named JL I unfortunately met that blasted night. Trying to make out with the girl, asking for her phone number, texting her afterwards, and then asking for her AIM/MSN and IMing her afterwards having hour long conversations is NOT making it perfectly clear that you guys were just friends. It is, however, making it clear that you are an utter jerkwad who needs to grow some balls and either make some damn moves, or don’t make any at all. Yeah, and using the whole “you’re the one with a boyfriend” is a weak comeback, since you KNEW all of this before you decided to be a dipshit. And if you’re going to stalk her facebook, at least be smart about it. The only person who’s been calling her “baby” these past weeks her my friend, who YOU KNEW. God knows what the deuce you were looking at.

• People who get emotionally involved for no reason

  Ok, I get you’re having a bad week, but seriously, you’re not the one who’s being played by a guy who you actually thought was decent. You’re also not the one who decided to take 5 shots because you got played and felt like shit. So I don’t understand why you would be an idiot and make things worse for your friend by yelling at the said guy, when this has NOTHING to do with you in the first place. You’re supposed to make your friend feel better and try to keep the damage to the lowest degree possible, not add fire to water. I don’t care if your new car got rear-ended the day after you bought it or if your mom is on her menopause, no one is grateful for the middle-school crap you pulled.

• People who don’t know when to shut up

  Are you blind? Are you deaf? If not, then you must just be stupid. The guy driving you to the club is already pissed off. Yet you’re there yapping away talking about your rabbit, about your nails, and about you-think-is-cute-but-I-think-is-ugly-as-f*** dude and how he’s not texting you. Are you really that slow? Ok, maybe you are, and being slow isn’t a crime. But when someone actually tells you what’s going on and you’re still yapping away, you’re just asking for it. The guy pissed off already thinks you’re an idiot, and your stupidity isn’t helping. Thanks for making the car ride awkward you dumb bitch.

• People who use your stuff and don’t wash it after

  I don’t mind other people using my things, as long as you wash/replace it afterwards. So if you’re going to use my forks, wash them when you’re done with it, so that I can use them when I need to. Hell, I don’t even ask that you ask me for permission, but the least you can do is make sure my things are available when I need them. Yet some inconsiderate twat keeps using my kitchen utensils but can’t be damned to wash them afterwards. So every time I need to use my knife, I have to pick it out of the dirty sink amidst other dirty dishes and gunk and wash it. And I do NOT like washing dishes, especially after some idiot who uses my shit without permission! When I want my utensils, I want them NOW.

Yeah, I’m obviously not in a happy mood today, thank you for noticing.

Gonna party like it’s my birthday

My roomie CK kindly reminded me the other day that I’m going to be turning 22 before any of them even turn 21…and guess what, today is the day! I remember I was super psyched last year when I finally turned 21¹, and went out 2 days in a row and got wasted. But this year, with so much going on in my life² and the fact that I’m turning old³, I’m just not in the mood to organize any crazy nights. But my amazing roomies JZ, CK, and HL planned out a little surprise for me just before midnight last night, complete with candles, cupcakes, brownies, the “happy birthday” song and lingerie⁴. It was very sweet to say the least, and we got to have some quality roomie bonding time over yummy desserts. But there are still more plans to come, as I desperately need to get out and unwind:

• going out karaoke-ing on Thursday night with some friends, which will probably end up with us singing Chinese oldies while drunk
• spending Friday afternoon hanging out with JB and catching up on life
• going out for some yummy Korean BBQ on Friday night? this one is still in the air
• going clubbing right afterwards with JZ and KQ

And somewhere in that schedule, I’ll need to squeeze in time to find the best regression model for predicting sale price of cameras on Ebay before Saturday 11am and reply to the many comments I’ve neglected on this blog. Um, good luck to me. -_-

On a brighter note, here are the early birthday presents I got from my mommy and from FY:

Princess by Vera Wang – I got this from my mommy The scent is very sweet and girly, with a hint of sensuality to it.

Princess by Vera Wang solid perfume charm. This came with the perfume in a gift set. I really like the little crown charm on it!

J’adore by Dior from FY. It has a very feminine, sexy, and sophisticated scent. Also rated the #1 perfume every woman should have.

My fave WordPress plugins

Ok, seeing as how my head and heart is still lost on the dance floor, I really can’t be arsed to write out anything intellectual or enlightening. So uh, I’m just going to share with you all some of my favorite WordPress plugins¹, and why I think they’re awesome.

Post Snippets

Very useful if you have a lot certain codes that you use repeatedly in your posts, but you’re too lazy to type them out each time. For me, I use the <acronym> </acronym> for the people’s names in real life, and it’s a pain typing out the same description each time (as if I can remember them all), so with this plugin, I can add the code to the snippets repository and easily include it with one click when I need

Hide Posts

You can see it in action in my previous post about my crazy night out Basically, it allows you to hide a portion of your posts for registered users only. Since my private posts will usually be extremely long, this plugin gives the readers a small teaser, and they can decide if they want to register/login to view the post or not. I recommend using this plugin with Register Plus so you can get total control of who views your private posts.

Comment Reply Notification

I wrote a now obsolete post about improved comment notification via email a year ago, but this plugin does the job much better. Basically, I have it set up so that if the commenter is interested in getting an email when I reply, they can simply check the box at the end of the comment form, and they’ll receive an email with my reply when I get around to it

Platinum SEO Pack

Everyone recommends the All-in-one SEO Pack, which I also used before, but consider this plugin the All-in-one version, but on crack It has all the features of All-in-one, but a lot more. I mainly use it to hide my paid posts from search engines so I can avoid being Google bitch-slapped. If you do write paid posts, I’d highly recommend getting this plugin, and then reading my posts on how to hide paid posts from your feeds and how to hide them from your main page.

Post Avatar

No real use for this plugin, except for the fact that I like being able to include an avatar next to my posts This, and the friends only feature, are what I miss most from using LiveJournal, but with this plugin, I can have unlimited avatars! It’s easy to customize and use, no complicated coding needed.

Post Ideas+

Sometimes I’d have a bunch of ideas for posts, and other times, I’d be completely brain dead (which explains the fluctuation in my post frequencies). I use this plugin to jot down ideas for posts, and it shows up as a little widget right on my dashboard, so I can see it right away when I login. Very useful if you suffer spontaneous writer’s block like me.

What are some of your favorite, but lesser-known, WordPress plugins?
