#24

8:35- I am currently at orientation with Bubba (that my youngest brother, I have called him that for years, he HATES it, I LOVE it). We are in a giant auditorium. No one is talking to each other or talking at all actually. Its very weird, very not AQ.  Oww, microphone feedback. I also feel that we are listening to Big Head's iPod. So far we've had DMB, Kenny Chesney's duet with Uncle Kracker, and some band that whined at us all song so I'm guessing Switchfoot? Dashboard Confessional? someone like them. I am only person with computer. Thus making me the coolest person ever!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOO!!! COLLEGE!! 
9:07- starting Welcome Presentation late!! Unacceptable!
9:10- Bubba is too slow to win trivia prize. Weird, since he plays trivia all day long online. 
9:13- Welcome Video; President of Ferris slightly looks like President Bush.
9:17- School psychiatrist has Frasier's hairline. hmmm...
9:20- NOW LIFELONG MEMBER OF BULLDOG FAMILY
9:23- I just learned at a ferris e-mail address looks more professional on my resume than gmail or yahoo.
10:30- All the students have left and it is just us "parents." We have done a wonderful job raising our children. After all they got into college didn't they? (So did the Unibomber, I don't really think we should think this is that big of an accomplishment.)
10:45- Guidance Counselor just instructed the parents to find out their children's user names and passwords to spy on them over the next four years. Nice!
11:00- Have broken away from herd of parents and decided not to attend the 3 hour Q&A session. Off to Qdoba's for free wireless & chicken tacos.

Ok, so I know this isn't related to this post, but I thought it would get more notice here. These are the weekends that I am available to go to Chicago: July 19-20; July 26-27; August 1-2. That's it. Pick your poison

Okay, also off topic:

I was watching Cash Cab and it was THE DUMBEST three people ever. They must have all been friends because they were too dumb to be friends with anyone else. The answer was Teddy Roosevelt. The stupid ringleader said FDR. And his stupid friend (possibly drunk) insisted that they were the same person. "It's the same thing! They both have letters in them!" And good old host Ben was all uh.. they were two different presidents, retards.

OMG! We should be on Cash Cab. WE WOULD BE AWESOME. Did those people win any money at all? I hope not.

Re: stupid people winning

No, they got every question wrong except one. And I don't even remember what it was. I was going to try to find it online later because they were unbelievably dumb. Ben was just like um...are you people serious?

Day in New York? Flagging down cabs to find the cash cab? Alright with me.
