Three's a Crowd

Time to play catch up! September is almost over! Eeek!

New Thing #16: Become a fan of Glee

Oh yes, I'm now officially a Gleek! It's a modern take on musicals and without the childish feel of any of the High School Musicals that had swept the tweens so long ago. The cast is young and unknown which I doubt will last much longer. It seems everywhere I turn people are coming down with glee fever and I'm sure enrollment in actual high school glee clubs have skyrocketed (aren't they called choir nowadays?). The three episodes that have been aired so far have been full of every adolescent cliche that you could possibly imagine. Nerdy kids vs. the popular crowd, handsome arrogant jock learns the value of inner beauty and the power of believing in oneself to ultimately reform and stand up for all nerds. Hmm...sounds kinda like the end of Revenge of the Nerds except it's not a busty blond cheerleader who bridges the gap between nerdom and jockville. Let us not forget Mercedes, the token black girl with her "aww hell to the nah" or Kurt, with his flamboyant I'm-so-gay-it's-practically-stamped-on-my-forehead bravado that the creators have so elegantly kept subtle. We've even got some crazies in there (mainly Emma - who will always, in my mind, be Hiro's lost love, Charlie). But I love all the characters (even the completely random new ones like Mr. Fauxhawk), especially the uber crazy cheerleading coach who with complete seriousness delivers the line "This is what we call a total disaster ladies, I'm going to ask you to smell your armpits. That's the smell of failure, and it's stinking up my office." Genius.



New Thing #17: Take a shower with all my clothes on

I needed something new and random. And well, this is what you get. It was strange to say the least. To be honest, it kinda sucked. I washed my hair with my clothes on but afterwards it was just too much. Besides, using body wash over the clothes would pretty much be the dumbest thing ever. That coming from a guy who just took a shower with his clothes on. Word.


New Thing #18: Take a Jung typology test
According to an online Jung typology test, I have a ENFJ personality type, whatever the hell that means. Apparently I have a lot in common with former President Bill Clinton, Tony Blair, Clara Burton (founder of the American Red Cross), and Ronald Reagan -
since they're all ENFJ's as well. Broken down, I'm 33% extraverted, 25% intuitive, 12% feeling, and 11% judging. What the hell? That's only 81%! Where/what is the remaining 19%? It's funny that I'm an ENFJ, I always considered my personality to be a BAMF.

Clinton and Reagan? I guess I wasn't too far off the mark when I said you should've been a politician!
