First Real Sale!

I am so darn excited about it! I can finally say that I actually did something. Someone gave me money, and I give them an awesome hat. Say goodbye to the Rocket J. Squirrel hat!

Yay! And my cousin was a great model. Thanks Steph!

So I think I need to get more models. They never seem available like I'd like them to be. This is when I wish it wouldn't cost me $1,000,000 to find a ANTM girl.

Dear Bravo Cable Television Network

Dear Bravo Television Network,

Here is the reason why you are having problems. YOU'RE NOT ORIGINAL! Seriously, it's pissing the rest of America off. I'm sorry that you decided to not keep Project Runway and sold it to Lifetime television (seriously a big big mistake) but it's not ok to make another show just like it. Come on! Iman? Really? You are a huge copy cat.

Here are the shows you ripped off of:

America's Next Top Model (Make me a Supermodel)
Iron Chef (Top Chef)
Biggest Loser (Thinnervention)
Desperate Housewives (Every real housewives)
Project Runway (which was your show in the first place!)

Seriously, get original. I hate you. The only reason why I watch Bravo is because of America's Next Top Model reruns.

Love Always,

Gen Taylor

P.S. - Maybe you should hire me so I can help you out.

Project Runway Season 8 finale

Oh, it's almost over. Don't get me wrong; I love Project Runway just as much as the next craft junkie. But now I have to change my entire Thursday night!

See, I also LOVE LOVE LOVE NBC comedy, also on Thursday nights. So I watch Project Runway and record the NBC comedy and watch them on Friday while I look for a job or something. Now what am I going to do?

So back to Project Runway. Who's gonna win? I'm rooting for Mondo. Mondo Mondo all the way. Who are you going for? I totally want to hear it.

In a treasury, boo yeah!

So I'm in a treasury, boo yeah! Click on the picture. Yes, that is the item in said treasury. If I make it to the front page of Etsy, I may or may not wiz my pants. Also, I will have some awesome specials if I do make the front page, so help a sister out!

I don't know why you're laughing

Probably because I am! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

So sometime in the past week, when A.C. Moore called me, my father picked up the phone. I was sleeping. He told them that I was on another job interview and that's why I couldn't pick up the phone.

Yeah, I was pissed. I'm still pretty pissed about it. I gave him shit for it, and he didn't really seem to care. He thought he did something nice. He didn't realize how DUMB that was. He never said he was sorry, nothing. So I decided I was going to get him back.

One of his friends called the house. My dad wasn't available; he was outside talking to someone. I told my dad's friend that my dad was at a gay pride convention. His friend said he was staring down the guys in leather.

PWND!

I don't think being gay is funny. I think it's funny to embarrass my dad.

My newest Etsy shop item!

Are you serious?

Before I answer the question above, I'd like to welcome my new followers. HI GUYS!

So I went for a job interview today at A.C. Moore. First of all, can someone tell me of another place that has job interviews on a Saturday? That's really strange. So I interview with who I am assuming is the store manager, and I feel like it was way too short. 10 minutes. That's it. Then I got the "We'll call you."

If I don't get this job, then there is a huge problem. I am the craftiest person I know. I made my prom dress... twice. I knit, I crochet, I play with wires and beads, I can hot glue like a fiend, and you're not going to give me a job at a craft store? What is this world coming to?

So I'm going to add my newest adds now. If there is anything you all want me to promote on here, just leave a comment.

Kinda a drag....

This whole "blogging gig".... it's kinda a drag. Idk why, it just is.

However, Project Runway last night... I do love Project Runway. I've been waiting for Michael D. to be eliminated for weeks now.

Anyways, make sure you tell your friends about this blog. Once I start getting more followers, I'm going to start my Etsy showcase. I think when I get 20. If you follow and you have an Etsy store, then you're in good shape!

FOLLOW MY BLOG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyways, new item in the shop.

I HAVE A FOLLOWER!

Thank you, thank you very much. It's pretty bad when you blog to yourself. Teehee!

I'm attempting to get more followers so I can start up a page about the cool things I find on Etsy, so bring your friends over!

Also, after graduating from college, I finally got my first job interview...... at A.C. Moore. I know, it's not helpful, but it is at the same time!

And for the shop item I am promoting this week...... drum roll please....... my Ribbon Slouchy hat!!!!!

What? Buy my stuff and I'll give you cash?

Yes, that's right. I am sooooo desperate for a sale that I WILL GIVE YOU CASH! if you buy my stuff. Here are the rules (and there aren't many.)

1) This promotion is only going on for the next week (9/10-9/17).

2) Buy something from my Etsy shop (TheWorldFamous.etsy.com) and I will put a dollar into your package.

3) If you are local to me (about 20 min. from 08831 zip code) I will give you the shipping cost back in cash.

4) If you refer someone to my shop, they buy something, and tell me you referred them, I will send you $2 cash in the mail or drop it off locally.

I'm kinda broke, so a dollar is all I can afford, but hey, it's a dollar. Serious! Tell everyone you know!

Now, for the new item in my shop!

Teeny Tiny Small Kittens

Alrighty, so life, as usual, is almost normal. I am a proud momma of two baby kittens, and I am in love. Don't get me wrong; I love all of the animals that run around my New Jersey home. The other three cat and three dogs are wonderful. They don't love me like the kittens do. I can tell that they are MY kittens, and no one elses. YAY!

Also, new items on my shop, although no one seems to look at this blog anyway, so does it really matter?

10% off this week!

From today, 9/2/10, to next Thursday, 9/9/10, a 10% discount will be given at my shop, as long as you are a fan of my shop on Facebook. Just look up "The World Famous's Etsy Shop."

That's www.etsy.com/shop/theworldfamous

The newest item in my shop. Stop by soon! I keep adding more items!

Back to School

So currently, the mission is to complete everything for my online class before it actually starts. It sounds crazy, I know, but I think it may just work. I mean, let's think about it.

1) It's an online class where we watch a lot of movie.

2) So while watching said movies I get to a) pack to go back b) go on the treadmill and c) craft! I'm actually watching one of the movies I have to watch right now, while writing this blog entry. Aren't I just awesome.

3) Writing the papers in between these times will also give me a reason to sit in from of the computer and actually work by brain.

So this is what I have learned about the topic of "Gay and Lesbian Film"

1) Dear God, don't let Paul Newman be gay. He's a beautiful creature. NOT HIM!

2) When I have kids, if they ever call my husband "Big Daddy", I will kill them.

3) The L Word was right. Everything they have ever said about the gay commumity is right. Well, from what I know.

Seriously, look that this man. Paul Newman is gorgeous! Think him and Robert Redford....mmmm.... it's like melting chocolate.

Alright, and for some new shop items!

Toy Story 3, 3-D and IMAX

I remember being a kid and going to the Liberty Science Center. We must have went there for two class trips or something. I actually remember my ex talking about wanting to go up there for a date. Guess that didn't happen.

Anyways, Liberty Science Center is up in Jersey City. I specifically remember the IMAX theatre there. It was amazing. They'd show you these education films (I always remember the Solar System movie; it must have amazed me) in IMAX, and the screen was all around you. You could see stars on the floor and above you. It was crazy.

I also remember my 3-D movie experience down in Disney World (the one in Florida). One of the parks used a 3-D Muppett's show, and stuff used to fall from the ceiling. Like, someone on the screen threw a bucket of water and water fell from the ceiling. It was crazy

So remembering these experiences reminds me that there is no way I'm going to get this awesome experience when I go to watch Toy Story 3 in 3-D and IMAX.

I did cry like a small child during the movie.... twice.... I'm sorry! The look Andy gave Woody at the end of the movie made me cry! The Toy Story movies always remind me to love my toys. I havent thrown any in the garbage, but I would like to find them a good home one day, you know? I wish I knew a small child who would love my toys that I know. I could donate them, but it's not the same. They don't all go together to one place.

It's crazy what movies and TV shows make you think about, isn't it? Dogma made me second guess my religion, Buffy makes me petrified of someone pointing two fingers at your eyes and moving them, and 30 Rock reminded me why I want to be a script writer (I wanted to do that before I watched it, though.)

So yeah, go see Toy Story 3, but make sure if you go to see it in IMAX, it's in a dome theatre. Otherwise, don't waste the money for IMAX and go see it regularly.

I've added more items to my shop, which I will be posting now.

Etsy Shop!

So my new current adventure is actually maintaining my Etsy shop. Currently I'm working on trying to make my first sale so... let's see how it goes!

All of the hats I am making are out of excess yarn. It's getting to the point where I'm going to start throwing away yarn to get a use for it, so I'm making hats and seeing how they sell. The problem is, making them are so damn addicting I just can't stop!

The jewelry is stuff I've been wanted to put up on Etsy but never did. I have the stuff to make them, but I just didn't make them because my last semester was so heckic. I'm hoping the summer isn't the same way so that I can get my Etsy shop to sell stuff!!!!!

One Month

I graduate from college in one month. Let me tell you what I've learned. 1) Your life can be a horrible, miserable mess and all you need is one friend who can save you. Just one. I have 2. I'm luckier than most. 2) Classes suck. Go only if you absolutely have to. 3) Safe Harbor Hours aren't interesting enough to write a 15 page paper on. 4) No matter how hard you work, no one is going to give a shit, and you'll never be recognized for it. Why don't you just give up while you still can? 5) RuPaul's Drag Race can save a girl! The next couple of weeks are going to be crazy. Student Government bullshit is blowing up all over the school newspaper, which is a first. This is the second week in a row where they are getting the front cover. We have a drag show up here in a few weeks also. I'm so stoked about it. I've always wanted to see one perform, simply because I never have. Curiosity killed the cat, right? I've found some friends I've had for about a year or two to be exactly what I thought they would never be. However, I did take a nice weekend to head down to Virgina. I was bringing a friend home and we stayed for a day or two. A good time was had by all, and my boobs got quite a bit of air time.

Life is one big, huge joke. Let's laugh at it as we beat it to a bloody pulp and watch it cry on the ground in pain.

Retrack.....

So I'm going to retrack my previous statement about Chatroulette. Chatroulette is fun if you go in with a game plan, and you don't do it alone.

My secret weapon? Shticks. I think everyone needs to get a set of these, find a friend, and try Chatroulette that way.

Otherwise, don't do it!

Chatroulette!

People, don't do it. Don't get curious when your friends talk about it. Don't think of going to it because I'm talking about. If you have any self-esteem, just don't do it. Chatroulette is ridiculous.



My one buddy from school talked about it a lot, so I said sure, why not. Now remember I'm not the most attractive person in the world and I'm on the heavy side.



However, I'm now a "fat fag" because I refuse to show my tits on the internet.



I like penis, just to start this off. After visiting Chatroulette.com, I never want to see another penis ever again. Guys are just randomly beating their meat on their webcam.



I had a semi-meaningful conversation with one person, and it was a girl. We both thought the site was gross.



No, I will not randomly flash my boobs. However, I'll show these! (Photo from Wendy Usually Wanders) Now those are some nice breasts!


Thank you, Chatroulette, for giving me an experience I'm praying to God I will forget!

Why can't life just be happy and peaceful?

Again, I'm a little upset. I hate being single. It makes me feel alone. My significant other is my escape from the world, and now my escape's gone. I recently found out that my racist ex-boyfriend (the one I broke up with Christmas day) is now dating a black girl. The most recent guy I've had sexual encounters with is a pathalogical liar and thinks he has muliple personality disorder. He doesn't, trust me. Why can't I just escape?

Well, here are some videos that will make everything better.
Megan's a Lesbian - This one is actually mine. My friend Ashley and I made this for our friend Megan. Megan hated us forever.
What to Call Your Vagina - This is a clip from The "L" Word, and it always makes me laugh. Alright so how did I so far get 2 lesbian references?

Life's never really hard for me. I grew up in a sorta nice place with two parents. There weren't any crazy, huge hardships. I have just made shitty friends.

My friend Liz and I sat on her couch about this last night. I think I've made about 3-5 actual good friends in my life. The rest of them aren't really good friends or they're gone. And it always burns this part of me. I just want to laugh.

Since my terra is broken, Family Guy is not avalible for my laughing needs. This means I need to YouTube hunt.

At first I was looked up "Ham Sandwich" because I just got a Ham Sandwich and want to watch one and eat one at the same time. I think there's a band name "Ham Sandwich". I managed to sit though the whole Peanut Butter and Jelly Time video... remind me to never do that again. I mean never.

Then I found morbidly obese people.

I'm going to post some videos that I found interesting. Enjoy!

The Morbidly Obese Ballerina: Her story of hardship and her inflated suit.
How to Make a Fat Suit: I hope my kid ends like this - creative, editing video, and making fun of people
DON'T CALL ME FAT!: This guy is hillarious. One of my professors showed me him (Ray William Johnson) and now I found him for my Fat Collection. Usually, I expect fat people to be funny, but this dude.... he's an angry mf'er. It's sad. Laugh at him.

Who's getting drunk with me while watching the State of the Union Address?

Scott, my wonderful friend, sent me this link, and I think I'm going to do it.

Please, if you are over 21 and want a good laugh, do this with me! I will have pictures.

(image taken from HuffyPost Comedy's State of the Union Drinking game 2010)

Obama may be joining us as well!

Walking the Lonely, Dark Streets

So I just got back from the bar and never got a drink. I wasn't comfortable being there. That bar freaks me out. So I left.

I left and walked about alone.

The streets at night are so dark, no matter how many streetlights there are. They creep up on you as you walk through. Worst of all, you feel like the whole world is watching your lonely, dark walk back.

Today is a friend's 21st. She's a really sweet girl, but she's just like me: loud, obnoxious, and funny. But she has two things going for her that I don't. 1) She's really pretty. 2) My friends tend to like her more than me, or at least they act like it.

I don't want to sound whiney, it just humbles me. I really do like the girl. I just never felt so lonely with a group of people.

She walks in the room. Everyone is so happy to see her, including me. She somehow gets everyone's attention. Then I don't know what to say. So I fade in the background and watch what's going on. Someone will then notice and say one of the following lines. 1) "Gen, are you ok?" 2) "Gen, you're such a wonderful person." 3) "Gen, you're beautiful and I want to fuck you."

No one would really do the third one, they just say it.

Then I feel even more humbled, because now everyone knows I have been humbled and want to make me feel better.

I know it's just me. I know I'm just crazy.

I'm so used to being the person that people are happy to see.

Now I'm just faded in the lonley, dark streets.

Things in Life Just Seem to Slip By

I'm 21 years old. In my 21 years, I've seen a lot. I've seen 48 of 50 states in the US. I've met 2 people who are famous, and both of them were WWE wrestlers. I survived Y2K, 9-11, Bird Flu, and Swine Flu. I graduated from high school and am currently just about to graduate from college.

And now I'm scared.

It's my last semester, and I'm about to graduate with a degree in Communications with an Emphasis in Broadcasting. I'm petrified to become a real human being, and not a kid.

I have way too much work to do.

Now that I'm back in the dorms, updating is going to heckic, rediculous, and exciting. After this post, I'm going to put up my new posters and clean up. Then I need to get books for class. I'm so excited because we get to read Watchmen for Comp. class. It is going to be wonderful.

So let me sign off with this; Life is Crazy, Awesome, and Fun. Don't let it slip.

OMG, I Need IHOP

Alright, so here I am in York, PA, and apparently the closest IHOP is in Maryland. For some reason, we are driving all the way there to get pancake. Seriously. Just to get pancakes. This is ridiculous. However, I can tell you one good thing about this. Never ending pancakes.

Unfortunately, there is no record for most pancakes eaten. So no matter how many I eat, it'll still be morethan the record. I will update on the number of pancakes I eat. Watch this......

York, PA

Once upon a time, I was a senior in high school and was looking for colleges. The first thing I wanted out of a school was to get away from my mom (She's charizard. It's awful.). So one of the places I looked at was York College in York, PA. It was a really nice school. I apparently have family out that way.... eek! So I'm wondering around the campus, and I saw someone who looked familiar. It turned out to be the person I thought it was; my friend Katie who I have known since I was 5.

Katie decided to go to school at York. I went another way. Now, she decided she wants to live out there. It's 3 1/2 hours away and she just felt like staying there instead of here..... arg..... Kaite and I don't see much of each other these days.

Since my recent break-up, I feel like I'm finally living the life I want to live. My friend Brian and I never talked because my ex HATES him. Brian insisted that I go out to York for New Years. So I got to see Katie again. A good time was had by all.

Why does any of this matter? I'm going out to York again! Yay!

Last time at Katie's, it took us a couple of days to clean up Katie's apartment. It was that bad. While we were out there, Brian cooked dinner and was pissed because we had no kitchen table. So Brian had an extra one laying around his house (I'm so glad that these people have kitchen tables laying around their house. Do you have a million dollars laying around, too. That would be awesome.). So we are adventuring again out to York for another fun trip.

On the list of things to do

1) Clean Katie's apartment

2) Take out her dog

3) Making pizza bagels

4) Enjoying multiple alcoholic beverages.

5) Going to Adams County Winery. That's exciting!

6) A long carride....

I probably won't update this until I go back to school on Sunday. I'm sorry! If you are reading this, tell your friends or something. Maybe I'm interesting to read... I don't know.

Pole Dance Hero?

The unfortunate side effect of being home for winter break is getting viruses in my labtop and having a small amount of friends at home. This is easily solved with working on my blanket out of crap yarn (pictures coming soon) and watching too much TV.



I managed to watch Family Guy from 10pm to midnight, and if I really wanted to try, I could have started at 8pm. There's only 7 season of Family Guy. Seriously, tv networks, play Buffy the Vampire Slayer, it's the same amount of seasons, and it last longer.



However, I do love Family Guy. One thing gets on my nerves about the show, however, and it's not a huge deal. I hate how when the show started, Stewie wanted to take over the world. As the show keeps going, he now wants to be gay. I feel like the story doesn't flow, and it pisses me off.



Did you know Adult Swim now has a game called Pole Dance Hero? For cereal? When I get my labtop back, I'm playing it!



As the night went on, I found out that I love the Logo network. RuPaul's Drag Race is one of the best reality shows I have ever seen. It's so over the top, but so dman awesome! I may continue on this rant later.



To make my night excellent, I found out that Logo plays Buffy. I have an unhealthy love for Buffy the Vampire Slayer. So unhealthy in fact, that I can make a Buffy reference to just about anything in life. It's sad and obsessive and I will stay up to watch these episodes tongiht. They start in a couple of minutes.



Oh, I can't wait for my next post....


BTW, yes, the picture is me on Sarah Michelle Gellar's body. I'm not Buffy obsessed or anything....

NYC is evil.....

So I was bored, (how bored were you?) so bored in fact that I went to msnbc.com This is not a part of my usual Internet habits. So I found this article about how NYC is trying to reduce the amount of salt the city takes in.

I think this is crazy. The government of NYC is controlling what people eat! If that doesn't sound crazy, than I don't know what does...

However, we are a fat society. I believe we are the fattest nation in the world, and now the government wants to do something about it?

The government should do us a favor. If they care soooo much about the population's weight, then the government should give all of us Bowflexes. I want a Bowflex! Someone please just give me a Bowflex! Or maybe one of those weird ab things that you kneel on and it swishes you from side to side. I want that ridiculous piece of exercise equipment.

Acute Total Heart Failure

God do I hate stupid people. I hate people who are so well educated yet they say the stupidest things.

Example: "Acute Total Heart Failure"

Please explain to me how you can kinda-sorta have complete heart failure? Does this make any sense to anyone?

I saw this on TV while watching a show about crazy tumor surgery. I somehow got hungry while watching this and when into my kitchen to get a bagel. My father sat there in his chair asleep. I ended up waking him up because I was laughing so hard at him. (It is expected of my father to get drunk and pass out in his chair on multiple nights.) I explained to him the quote at question. He had a couple of questions to make sure the quote was put into context, one of them being how the word "acute" is used in medical terms. His response was, "Oh, so I can describe someone's child as 'acute little girl'."

This is why I hate my life... ::puts head in hand::

Maybe I don't hate my life, but I say that often.

Welcome!

Life creates many new stages. I've just reach a new stage in mine. To help me document this stage, I decided that I wanted to make a blog to tell everything about my life from now on.



To start, I recently broke up with my boyfriend. We were seeing each other for on and off 4 years. I feel like it was also too long to be with him. I'm not afraid of commitment or anything like that; He and I weren't compatable. He wanted to stay inside all day, watch TV and other activities that I will not mention. I like to have friends and go out and do things. I like and enjoy the company of people. I go crazy staying inside by myself all day without interaction.



I'm currently 21 years old and am attending a small college is northern PA. I was born and raised in Jersey, so being 4 1/2 hours away from home at college is a bit difficult. The area is quiet and remote, and nothing like the suburbian hell I live in back in Jersey. I'm starting this blog on my last winter break; I graduate in May.



2010 had started for me in a flash. I broke up with the boy on Christmas Day. Sure, I feel a little bad about it, but it had to be done. Anyways.... I then started my New Years in York, PA, with some friends from high school. That is when I realized a couple of things; my life is crazy, my life is wonderful, my life is worth reading about, and my life needed to be documented.



Today, I'm hoping to start my story, and start documenting my life as I see it. I hope to honestly describe my life.



Today, I'm Gen Taylor. Welcome to my life.

The picture is of me on a roadtrip to Boston over last summer with my mother.
