For some reason, it did not occur to me until an hour ago that I can probably put an entry on private, rather than making it password protected. CRAZIES! I don’t know why I never thought to do that. I know it can be done on other blogs. I think it’s because all my options on the side are minimized and the only one that was straight forward was the one titled “Post Password”. Man..who knows how many private entries I can make without you people knowing it now. This is amazing! I could have a private entry between every post for all you know! Wow! hahaha. I know this isn’t that exciting for people who do it all the time, but I never have so it’s kind of cool. I probably won’t really have many private posts though. And you know what else? I forget my protected entries’ passwords anyway!

So I’m giving up on that search engine thing because it’s too much work and work is a four-letter word. But I want to share some recent ones that are kind of funny. reggae song about dating more mature If anyone knows what song this is, please tell me. I’m intrigued. I even searched this term myself and it turns out I’m the first one on the list. highs of being a couple Friend, there is no such thing. hehe. Kidding. From what I know, there aren’t really like set “highs,” but I guess one of the highs is getting gifts. haha. :D



September’s search engine terms

Once again, there were tons of searches for A Fine Frenzy’s “Almost Lover.” It’s apparently quite popular and helps me get the visitors. But if you felt disgusted by my blog thing and wish you had never clicked that link, here’s a tip: next time you want to find lyrics to a song, try typing the word “lyrics” in your search, not that I don’t love the visits and all but I’m just trying to help a brotha/sista out.

A lot of people come here because they’ve lost [their] train of thought. I am not really sure how I can help, but from my experience, I just kind of wait for it to come back and if I think I’m going to forget again I have to write it down. Sometimes it’s not that important so I let it come back to me when it’s ready, but other times I literally just stop and sit and think about what it was. I read one time my philosophy textbook that your mind is like a file cabinet and if you think about something hard enough, you will eventually be able to pull out that memory. I don’t know if it’s true, but I’d like to think so. As for why I lose my train of thought, I think it probably has to do with being easily distracted and having a short attention span. My mind tends to wander, I suppose.

There were some searches for problems with the Nokia 5200. I haven’t really had any yet, but sometimes my music player randomly stops and occasionally my phone will restart itself. One search caught my eye and I am very interested in knowing where I can find tetris for Nokia 5200. If anyone knows, please tell me and I will love you forever.

Someone searched jay chou dun dun dun. Yeah, I guess the mention of him is pretty dramatic. FYI, he’s coming to LA this Christmas Eve and if anyone would like to take me, it’d be greatly appreciated. There was also a search for the dun dun dunnn SONG. I have always just thought of it as That Sound That Plays When Something Dramatic or Climatic Happens, but maybe that’s just me. I don’t know if there’s an actual song for it. I don’t imagine it to be very exciting if it’s been ignored all these years and only those three notes are popular. It’s kind of like that Friends theme song by The Rembrandts. No one really likes listening to the rest of it because all we ever heard was the theme song portion.

totally wearing my rainboots YAY I LOVE RAINBOOTS! I hear it’s supposed to rain this weekend so be prepared rainboot wearers! :D I’m sad I don’t have mine at home with me because they’re at school.

“reusable shopping bags” “to print on” OOhh that sounds fun. I think you can probably buy blank canvas bags at any craft store and then use iron-on transfers on them or whatever. I’ve seen some pretty heinously decorated bags, so I hope you’re using your powers for good and not ugly.

pants party meaning I first heard “pants party” in Anchorman, because Steve Carell’s character couldn’t get his pick-up line right, so technically it’s supposed to be kind of dirty, but I use the term to mean denim sales. haha. It’s kind of a stretch.

Oh mang, I love imported Qoo. It doesn’t seem as popular as it used to be, but Qoo is still great to me. The only way we get it in the US is if it’s imported, so I guess try Japanese supermarkets or something.

Here are some I thought were kind of funny (and I was wondering, Exactly what were they were hoping to find?) and need no further commentary:
seagull bite itchy
how come it is so nice to be a teenager
whit fish fam
McDonalds + mom
aquatic narcolepsy
had to pee
slave cut hair
why people don’t eat beets
got smacked in the face w/ a long ponytail



August’s search engine terms

One of the beauties of having a WordPress account is the kind of stats they provide that I otherwise would not care for, had they not supplied me with such information. From my Blog Stats page, I can see what search engine terms people used to stumble onto my little ole site. Unfortunately, I probably disappointed every single person who came here via search engine, because I doubt my mindless ramblings were what they were seeking. But, because I am so thoughtful and giving, I have decided to help put an end to their pursuits with the assistance of my answer box, aka My Brain. The following are some of the phrases people optimistically searched for during the month of August but sadly ended up here.

Most of the searches were chunks of the lyrics to A Fine Frenzy’s “Almost Lover,” so if that’s why you’re here, here are the lyrics again. I’d share the MP3 with you but that would be UNLEGAL! Some of the searches were for James Blunt’s “Goodbye My Lover,” so if you’re looking for that you’re in the wrong place, sucka! That is a pretty good song though. I especially like it because it was in an episode of The Office called ”A Benihana Christmas”…or something like that.

A lot of people were led here because of my blog title, “I just lost my train of thought.” I’m not very good at picking titles for stuff so I typed that in for the title as sort of a placeholder but just stuck with it because I lose my train of thought very easily, but you’re not interested in that, are you? I’ll just go through the search engine terms. meaning of saying lost my train of thought WELL, I don’t think it really counts as a saying, but this phrase kind of speaks for itself imagery-wise. Say you get this idea and it’s chugging along in your head. It’s developing but then all of a sudden it gets interrupted or you get distracted by something and then you can’t remember what you were thinking about or where it was going. That’s losing your train of thought. It’s a sad feeling, I know. let my train again Hm…I’m not really sure what this means. i’ve lost my train of thought I’m very sorry. i just lost my train of thought, artist I’m so flattered that you think of me as an artist. Really, all I do is write about my life. I guess my life in itself is a work of art. No need for applause, my friends! my friend train I’m not really sure what a friend train is, but it sounds appealing. I’d love to be a part of one.

There were quite a bit of searches for “5200,” which I am just going to assume means the Nokia 5200 because some people wrote that too. I love my 5200, because not too many people have it and it goes well with my favorite person. Its graphics and camera quality are not as good as the 5300 and it doesn’t have those few extra buttons on the side, but my 5200 is red and your 5300 is not. haha. Unless you’re not from the US or you imported it, then maybe your 5300 is and you get to one-up me, okay? haha. The phone is easy to use and the sound quality is pretty awesome. If you want to blast your music, the speaker located in the back is very loud and clear. The phone has a radio and lots of different recording options, so if you want to record an incriminating conversation, you go right ahead and do so. nokia 5200 rihanna I don’t know what the Nokia 5200 has to do with Rihanna, though, and whoever looked that up was probably upset by the result.

A few people came here through a search for Josh Brogan. Sorry to tell you this, but that’s not how his name is spelled. hahaha. It’s Groban. Apparently, a lot of people spell his name wrong. I only spelled it wrong because that’s what Helen’s friend thought it was and kept calling him different names all night.

nataly wedges I have a friend named Nataly. I don’t know if she wears wedges. I usually see her wearing flip flops, but I’ll ask next time I talk to her.

what I hate about online shopping I don’t know about you, but it’s mostly buying books through Amazon and Half.com that I hate because people suck and don’t deliver what they promise. I don’t even use those sites that much except maybe a few times a year to buy textbooks and yet I’ve already had to get like four or five refunds, so I usually leave nasty feedback. I’ve only been in college two years and each year has three quarters (I know that doesn’t really make sense to some people) so if you do the math, I’ve been almost ripped off almost each time I needed to buy books. I also hate when a website, cough DELIAS, says they have a certain product in stock, ahem my ROOS, and then after I make my purchase, they tell me a week later that the item is no longer available. Sadness.

lost scholarshare number Scholarshare is going to screw you over however they can. If you got that $1000 in high school, you might as well earn that much money selling ice to polar bears because it’s a heck of a lot easier to do that than get what money you’ve lost from Scholarshare. I had to call them to try to get my money and went through three or four different numbers, before I finally got to their answering machine. The funding for Scholarshare is so low that they do not have actual operators on standby to answer your questions. Instead, you have to leave them your name and number and they’ll get back to you whenever they feel like it. I’d give you that number to save you all the trouble of calling the other few, but it’s at home. :( Sorry.

bikram dialog online I’m not entirely sure what this means, but I found this chart through Google one time that had all the poses. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find it again, so here’s a different one. A few people came here through a search about Bikram yoga. From my experience, I did feel kind of good after the pain subsided long after, but I am not a big fan of sweating like crazy. If you are, then more power to you. You’ll probably be a million times healthier and more flexible than I’ll ever be. As for Celebrities in Bikram Yoga, I don’t know what famous people do Bikram yoga. Bikram Choudury is a celebrity, I guess? But I think he’s a d-bag for patenting something that wasn’t his.

teenaged angst in film haha.. I don’t know why you would search for this, but there’s teenage angst in any film with teenagers. The first that comes to my mind is Freaky Friday. There’s probably a bunch of 80s cult classics in that category too.

JK jeans spree I don’t wear JK jeans and I don’t think I’ve heard of them, but I checked Google and apparently I am the first result that shows up when you search this phrase. Yippee! I’m not really sure of this brand’s existence, so you might want to see if it’s real before going on a jeans spree. I also don’t wear RanaHann, but this one time I went to a pants party that’s all they had there aside from Primp sweats and sweaters and I was really annoyed because I wanted to buy some jeans. Wendy and I didn’t even know what the eff RanaHann was. haha. And they were not very appealing in my opinion. I also do not wear buttcrack shorts. For the sake of mankind, I don’t think anyone should. giordano arcadia mall I do, however, like Giordano and am proud to say that the first one ever to open in America opened at the very mall I slave at. Yee! It’s kind of like Asia’s GAP but better. My sister was so excited that she bought a pair of skinny jeans the first time we walked into the US one.

barely slept before mcat I’ve never taken the MCATs and I do not intend to, but according to Google, I show up in the top five results when searching this phrase. All I have to say is..try to get some sleep before the MCATs? You don’t want to fall asleep during the test, you know. I don’t think it’ll help your score much.

Japanese Game show loses clothes. Um…SICKO. haha. This doesn’t sound familiar to me, but this human tetris thing from a Japanese game show that Nataly (who maybe or maybe not wears wedges) showed us is pretty funny. So is this library one.

bears eat beets According to Jim Halpert, this is a FACT, so it’s gotta be true. haha.

Update on my ill health. I’m better now. My fever broke last night and I felt like I was on fire. I was drifting in and out of dream state and I thought I was going crazy because I was imagining things and there was like a tea party going on and people getting sucked out of my mosquito tent. It was nuts. I kept thinking to myself, OMG I’m crazy, but crazy people don’t know they’re crazy, according to John Locke… Dun dun dunnn. I still don’t have much of an appetite and I have to pee a lot because I want to clear my insides and am scared my kidneys are going to break if I don’t pee. My body hurts less, though, and walking and standing are less of an inconvenience. haha.
