OLIVIA HONESTLY LOVES:::

I honestly LOVE LOVE LOVE SUPER LOVE Britney's 'Gimmie More.' Like, to the point where I listen to it on repeat on imeem. I hate to say it, but once I get out of the mini-debt I am in, and have a job, etc, I am BUYING her new album! Like, at a store. And I will blast it as I drive through the dangerous alleys of Memphis!!!

On a more serious note, this has been an awful, awful week for the University of Memphis. We've had two people die, one the murder and the other was a girl in Pi Beta Phi who was in a coma for awhile that was supposed to reduce brain swelling but didn't work out. It's been horrible. They have arrested three people for the murder of Taylor Bradford, and that's good I guess.

Oh, and do not listen to the bullshit on the news about how they handled the situation. They did not have us on lockdown, we were allowed to come and go as we pleased from dorms, etc, a cop would just tell us it was at our own risk, which was super bullshit, not just regular, because no one knew what had happened. The emergency text the school sent only said that classes were cancelled, not that someone had been murdered. There was an email sent out, but a giant percentage of the students only have access to the computers in the labs and library on campus. And both the email and text were sent out over six hours after the murder occurred. There wasn't even a "hey, guys! someone has been shot, get your asses back to your dorms or inside the nearest building!" There were people from the dorm the guy was at when he got shot that left 20 minutes after it happened, not knowing anything had happened, while there were only 'witnesses' that had seen the car driving away, also bullshit because we should have KNOWN at least SOMETHING happened. They thought the VA Tech guy had left, but that was a legendary mistake. And it's just absolute SHIT that they didn't handle it in any good way at all.

I decided to go on and just say where I go to school instead of being careful on the internets because 1) No one reads my bloggg.... AND 2) I already said that there was a shooting and it was on the National news, so it's no secret.

So go ahead and stalk me! It'll be fun!

Anyway. Other news...our dorm room's air conditioner is out. This would not matter in a normal place, but in Memphis it's still around 90ยบ outside. and it's around 75 and muggy in our room!!! AWFUL! But it's fine. I'm just pretending I live in a rainforest.

Hi Olivia!
Have you heard Jon Stewart is producing a spin off of The Daily Show? It's going to be called "Important Things with (drumroll...) Demetri Martin".

P.S. I like Gimme More, too. Don't tell anyone...

Oh girl no, not Britney Spears.

And what do you mean no one reads your blog? You've got more comments on this one post than I've had on my blog in months.
