Hey Jealousy

Lauren:
I guess it is natural to have a visit from the green monster every so often, but since my zip code roomie is so cool, the green monster has become a close friend.

Anna has this ring, and it's a turtle...sigh.

I try not to be jealous, but I can't help it. 

She flaunts it in front of my face. 

You thought I was kidding. No, she really FLAUNTS it. 

 I just want to wear it on my finger and look at it all day and night and afternoon and morning, oh, and when it rains.
It would be nice to look at a turtle when it rains, don't you think? 

I had this idea to make Anna jealous of me....

It seemed a little crazy at first,
 but I think it turned out nicely. 

ROOMIE'S BEEN ONE UPPED, because I am so nice like that and I can't let people have the satisfaction of being superior to me. We must be equals. 

Lesson to be learned: It is not always fashionable to one-up your roomie. 

Anna: I am often greeeeen. Not with envy. But really, I am told all the time that my complexion looks a little green. Sad. Must I be cursed to always look sickly? But I am particularly tinted when I see bosses long long lashes. Like. What in the heck, I have Asian stubbsies and she has these looongggg lashes and flippin anime eyes.

But. I have a turtle ring. I should be satisfied with my end of the bargain.

Do you want to here how I got this ring?

you're probably uninterested by now, but I'll tell you anyway. I got it in Mexico. It was a pinky ring, but I came back to ootah and my fingers shrank, so it was too big. But then it fit perfectly for a mid-ring and walla. 

I have worn it like that e'er since. 

There you go. All done. I wear it proudly.

I don't even have a cool story or reminder behind having this ring. 

Maybe I am a ninja turtle. by night.

Zip Code Roomies,

Anna and Lauren

You are probably wondering why we are "Zip Code Roomies."

You may not know this, but "Roomies" is short for Roommate.

Yeah. You learn something new everyday.

Also a Zip Code is,

"A group of five or nine numbers that is added to a postal address to assist the sorting of mail." synonyms: post code

Well. We aren't sorting mail (but maybe someday we'll try a career at the post office, or maybe the dollar store, don't rule 'em out). Basically we live one block away, and see each other everyday. We do this not out of appreciation for each other but because we decided we are roomies. And roomies, well, they see each other everyday. We assume. 

Upside of Zip Code Roomies:

• We do not have to label our groceries. 

• We do not have to sleep over every night.

• We still get to do roomie stuffs, like movie nights, and cooking things.

• We don't get sick of each other, because we still have me-times, and away-times.

• We are not actually renting an apartment together, so no negative feelings about your beloved roomie not paying rent.

• We don't have to clean each other's messes...but sometimes we still do. 

• We don't have to deal with other girls our age. They can be nice, and not-so- nice. 50/50 chance, not good odds. 

• We can make a blog and the URL for "zip code roomies" isn't taken. 

Downside of Zip Code Roomies:

• We're not actually roommates..... is that a downside? nevermind. It's not.

• None.

So, there you have. The reasoning.

See you in the 84058,
Anna and Lauren 

& So it begins.

Hello. We just joined our brains together to create this blogosphere work of art. Try not to be too jealous, we know we're the hottest bloggers out there. (see above picture).

Right, well. We should probably tell you about how we came to be here. We'll do this in list order so as not to confuse you.

#1. We think we are hilarious. (even though people tell us we aren't.)
#2. We have mile-long text convos.
#3. We sometimes brainstorm blog names. Most are inappropriate.
#4. We need something to spice up our college lives.
#5. We think we are hilarious.

Understand?

Now we will introduce each other. I type this as Anna sings "Let me introduce you to my party people, in the club...hmm hmm"

She's busy singing, I'll introduce her first.

Anna is half Japanese. Let's just get that out there. Asian jokes are not funny and are overused on her, so please refrain. She'll just look at you like you are a pitiful person eating a bag of broccoli. Because that is pitiful.
Anna enjoys sushi, but that was not an Asian joke. She has enjoyed it since birth, unlike you hipsters that say you like sushi when all you eat is California rolls.
Anna is not frightened of boys, but she has high standards of men. She wants the USA Swim Team, those type of "standards" if ya catch me driftwood. (Anna edit: FALSE. beauty is in the heart, right?)
She likes anime...haha FALSE.
She cries over everything from One Direction pictures to puppies. (Anna edit: FALSE she does not cry about 1D but puppies and movies.... yes. Especially that poor dog rescue commercial, you know the one.)
 She has a fragile heart, so no hating comments please. She'll be in bed for days. She does like bed, though, because that is where she watches her Netflix TV shows...was that TMI? She watches them in her pjs....ok, TMI.

That's all you need to know about her for now.
She's still singing, you should know that.

Ah. My turn. Let me introduce you to Lauren.
I'm a little bit nervous, because she is the blogger aficionado and this is my blogging debut.
She is commonly known as Boss. For a few reasons, namely
A) she is bossy
B) she was the President of the Dance Company for our senior year. (where she was bossy too so we all called her boss)
C) She likes to be in charge (and she is bossy)
(Lauren edit: TRUE. BUT it is just because I like to get things done, my way. hahaha.)
jk. I feel that I am not really introducing you to her but more dissing on her? hmm. She'll forgive me.
(Lauren edit: no I won't.)
In her heart she is hispanic. She often goes into Spanish mode, she says it's practice for her Spanish class but really no. It is just in her blood. FALSE She yearns for some Latin spice in her life because she is all white.
I don't really know anything about her. I don't know why she thinks we're best friends.
but, I do know that she won't eat anything raw, don't try and feed it to her. We have a mutual interest in eating but we also have a mutual hate for cooking. First world probs man. She also likes sweat pants and the Vampire Diaries but she finished all the available seasons in like a WEEK, so she will have to find something else to do with her time.
AAAANNND. She's right handed.


Right well. This is Lauren again. The point of this blog is to post about our wild times (it get's better than asian jokes and netflix, promise). Also, as you can see, we'll keep each other honest. We're not "DIY Perfect Hair/MakeUp/Body people", and we won't give false illusions that we have perfect lives.

Because we do. and you wouldn't believe it anyways.

Love,
Lauren and Anna
