Rhyme-isms

After the craziness of the last couple of weeks I dedicated this weekend to cleaning and finally finishing finding spots for all the stuff in my room. Of course, I can only be efficient for so long before one thing or another side tracks me and the nostalgia sets in.

Whether it was stopping to look through my photo album from studying abroad or flipping through random papers still unfiled from college, I tend to let those moments from the past overtake the plans I had for today.

Today's culprit was actually a box of post-its. In college, when I lived in the dorms, my friends and I would write down the funny things we accidentally said on a post-it and pin it to the bulletin board. As the months wore on and the board started filling up with colored squares all containing the name "Rhyme", the sayings quickly got renamed to the Rhyme-isms Board. Flipping through all those old post-its made me remember the good ole days so I thought I'd share some of them...Rhyme and Nicole if you're reading this prepare yourselves...everyone else, this probably means nothing to you other than to see how ridiculous we once were (still are?):

"Great Books: that class would be really interesting if there wasn't so much reading." -Amanda

"I wasn't talking about my individuality...I was talking about how different I was from everybody else." - Nikita

"I've had the same crotch for 18 years. I'm pretty sure I know where it is." - Rhyme

"Sometimes I wish I was allergic to people." -Rhyme

"If I were an M&M I'd eat myself." - Rhyme

"N: It's like selective hearing. J:Yeah. But most of what she doesn't hear comes out of her own mouth. It's like selective consciousness." - John and Nicole

"I don't like it. And I shouldn't have to put things I don't like in my mouth." -Random resident in Alice Lloyd

"If I wasn't afraid of you I'd throw my show at you." - Nikita

"Joe Paterno is the Hugh Hefner of college football." - Rhyme

"It's like a drinking contraceptive." -Samira

"If she's anorexic she's really bad at it." - Rhyme

"They were talking about school...you know how I feel about that." - Rhyme

"I deleted channel 14. How do I get it back?" - Nicole

"He's Asian. I can tell by his shadow." -Rhyme

The Rhyme-isms include many more, but to keep this blog mostly clean and appropriate I took editorial liberty with the ones I posted.
