SoHo Extravaganza

Hello duckies. I know you're feeling well because that's how life should be spent. But today one of my dear people-friends almost saw her glamorous life's end.

Alyssa is down in Florida (I think) with her grandmother and cousin and she spent her day at the beach. Up in the Northeastern region of the United States of Sassica, I was at my NY people-friend's house: Elle Fox.

Today I finally fell in love with her sassy dog Tyler.

He's always giving me sassy eyes and ignoring my commands. But today he was being very friendly and attentive...but not as attentive as Alyssa's almost-murderer.

Anywho, Alyssa BBMed me and our conversation went along these lines:

Alyssa: Rar-Rar! I was just swimming in the ocean and a D-List rar-rar tried to attack. I got out just in time.

Me: OMG, that's so scary!

Alyssa: I was with my grandma and my 3 year-old cousin; this old man was like "get outta the water!"

(Alyssa cont.)

We start swimming and running and I look over to see a dark gray fin heading towards me.

Me: OMG it wanted to use you for fifteen minutes of A-Listness.

Alyssa: I can see it on the cover of US Weekly: "A-Lister beats-up shark, proclaimed hero among geriatrics."

Hahahah, oh Alyssa.

Speaking of A-Listers, you will die (I hope only figuratively) when I tell you who was on the train with Elle and I today. Effing gorgeous Kerri Russell was sitting across from us on the 6 train.

Elle and I looked at each other at the same time and laughed. Kerri is gorgeous; she looks the same in person, if not more striking. We deemed her celebrity of the week because we respect her so much more for taking the train with us up-and-coming A-Listers. You go Glenn Coco!

After we got off the train Elle & I got our Starbucks fix and roamed the glamorous land of SoHo. We hit up some shops (Old Navy, Uni Qlo and street vendors). But after a few hours of wandering Elle remembered that she promised to meet up with her other people-friends; we departed after she and I went to my Mom's office. (We're just that A-List.)

Anywho, after Elle left Mommy and I shopped until we couldn't carry anything else.

We (well, Mommy) spent some heavy bucks.

I got about 4 shirts, 2 hoodies, 1 pair of hot casual shoes, 2 pairs of jeans, and a Spider-Man pillow. (I couldn't find Batman so Spider-Man swung in and saved the day.)

Enough about me, let's get to some "Words of Wisdom."

"Never blame present failures for past unfortunates. The past is a tool that molds us into the beautiful person we are today and the future is chosen by our actions. Every action has an equal reaction; do the present wisely."

OMG, I have some super-duper A-List news to tell you. So one of my people-friends Maria has taken the semester off to prioritize her life (kudos to you duckie) and in doing she started writing. So far she's written 70 pages...but guess what?! Maria knows the right people and she's in the process of getting her book published!

(Duckies I am not poking fun at Maria. She told me via Facebook that she really needs a copy of this lol.)

Maria, welcome to the elite club of A-Listers; congratulations duckie!

To the rest of you duckies, keep following your dreams...while I meet mine with closed eyes tonight.

I wish you the best of happiness. Stay true.

Peace, love & Obama,

Gabriel Anderson

Appropriated Sass

Hello duckies. I know all is well because that's how life should be lived. A lot has happened and a lot of sass has been dished out...even by me, (I know shocker!) lol. Anywho, let's get down to business.
Remember how I did my laundry on Friday afternoon...well I finally folded and put my clothes away just now!



My clothes felt so good that it reminded me of this Robot Chicken skit. (So funny...and inappropriate. Caution: This video is appropriately inappropriate lol! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBXzFvRdGXw)

Speaking of inappropriately appropriate I dropped a class yesterday. It was my Professional Editing class.



This may not seem like a positive so let me explain. I recently finished up an internship with HarperCollins over Winter Break and I forgot to do the paperwork to enable me to get credit for it. I had no idea that I had to register for the internship as I normally would for a regular class. Since I dropped a class (leaving me with 15 credits for the semester) I have room for 3 more credits (I'm getting three credits for my internship). Ergo, I'm going to show my RPW advisor my work from my internship and I'm going to be awarded my "lost" credits. I practically did professional editing during my internship so it shouldn't be a problem, just a matter of paperwork. Yaaaaay! (Shout-out to Rockstar for dropping a class and bitching at administration too. Yea, blogger-rebels!)

In other news, this weekend was too eventful for me. (I'm so tired and my sleep clock is off.) Anywho, my A-list friends (Maria and Liza) & I decided to embark on an adventure, throughout the campus village...in the middle of the night!



Unfortunately, everyone in the village had enough common sense to be inside their respective rooms (or having one night stands in other rooms..oOoOoOo) when we decided to venture the icy terrain. However, on our return to Maria's and Liza's apartment we met some new people and conversed with friends, right outside their apartment. Sometimes the closest things are what we need.

In regards to proximity, my A-list people-friend Elle Fox landed a new job at Amy Ruth's, a chic uptown soul food restaurant. Yaaay! Anywho, guess who was there? Duckies, brace yourself...COMMON WAS THERE THE NIGHT SHE WAS HOSTING! Like WTF? A world-renown A-lister was at her job. But it wasn't the greatest experience. (Don't sass me Elle, I'm making a point because I love you.)
Well, Elle was outside smoking a cancer stick (I recently stopped so I'm in the red too) and Common said something along the lines of:



Common is A-list so that brand of sass is appropriate. He was only looking out for Elle so later on in life they could become people-friends. Yaaaay Common!

But not all celebrities are nice.

I had a dream the other night and Diddy was in it. I don't really remember what was happening but I woke up ashamed because Diddy was sassing me for no apparent reason.



Way to be a dream-jerk Diddy!

Anywho, I have a new thing I'd like to add to The Sass Corner. Sometimes I am so proud to be a student at the University of Hartford because some people dress incredibly well on campus. (Shout-out to the A-list wardrobe regulars: Rockstar, Alyssa, Graham, Monica, Gabriel Anderson-yes that was a shameless plug lol-and Bill.) I'm practicing my paparazzi skills because in order to understand them, you must become them.
I was standing in line at the local campus deli, Dialogues, and this girl had a fabulous pair of Uggs!
The "Jetsetter Look of the Week Award" goes to:
*Random hot side-zipper Ugg girl. You are a jetsetter!
(*Photo taken on my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry Storm. OoOo, watch out!)
I've never seen Uggs so fabulous and full of such glamour-jazz; you go Glenn Coco!

Enough already...it's time for the quote of the day, Feb 9th &10th:

"Thinking of the worst case scenario invites the probability of catastrophe. Think of the best outcome possible and it (or something very close) will happen. Positive thinking is key."

OH! I have a bone to pick with Mommy. Well I told her to catch up with my blog entries because I gave her a birthday shout-out and she called me, right after reading it and the conversation went along the lines like:

Me: Did you love the new blog entries?
Mommy: Of course I did. Thank you so much for the shout-out!
Me: Did you read the other blog entries too; have you been keeping up?
Mommy: No, I just read my shout-out and that's it.
Me: OMG, I hate you so much that I love you.
Mommy: I love you too, Skank!

I love that woman so much. And more importantly, I love you too duckie.
I wish you the best of happiness. Stay true.

Peace, love & Obama,
Gabriel Anderson
