A Grimm Tale

Running through the woods chased by a rushing bear

A Grimm Tale
International Business Times

Ah, the Woman in the Woods, wandering, muttering, posing. Such a grim tale she suffers from. Not chased by the Wolf but a rushing Bear. Once it was foretold that she, yes she, would be the first to sit in the same chair and the same office where her husband once dallied. But now she wanders in the woods, imagining that a bear put in the forest was the cause of her demise. The bear and that other creature the Come-dy man. Oh the Huma-nity of it all!

Her mind screams at her "but you were ordained to be the first, you deserve it because you do, you must because you spent all this time with..... him..... my God all that time with..... him...... and now what to show for it? Grimly wandering in the woods constantly looking for that bear or the evil Come-dy man or worse yet having to, ick, pose with people. Who are these people who wish to take a selfie with me, from what basket did they come?

"How could I have lost? " It must be that damn bear and that evil man. "Of course, yes that must be it, because after all look at me, I wear pants suits for God sakes! Hmm, maybe people think I have no legs? No that could not be it.

"Oh and my charisma, I watch reruns after reruns of Hillary Highlights, (giggles), dodging sniper fire in Bosnia, cooking up the video for the story line in Libya. I am so charismatic just ask the Gold Man, and smart! Why do you think I wear pants? Can you imagine how many less votes if anyone saw my legs?"

The bear, the funny man, they are responsible for that man in the tower defeating me. It could not, was not, nor will I ever admit it was me. They all better watch out, I have an axe now, and I am going to hack at their precious victory.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.
