Sometimes I get stressed out...

...and when I'm stressed out, I do crazy things.

For example:

1. A couple days ago, I walked out of Staples with a giant spool of bubble wrap without paying for it. Don't worry. I went back and paid.

2. The next day, I left my entire NINJA FUND at Chipotle. And that's what I'd really like to talk about today.

The NINJA FUND. A couple of months ago, I started the Ninja Fund in order to raise money so I could go to an overly expensive restaurant called Ninja where the waiters are actual trained ninjas. BUT because Ninja is all about eating, I wanted to earn money by eating. So basically, I would do any food related dare for compensation. Last week, I ate an Oyster for $6.00. Once I ate ketchup packets. I may have eaten candy corn that had been in my mom's ear and a gummy licked by my brother's dog for about $3.00. Anyway, the other day, I wanted to trade in my change for dollar bills: the fund was getting a little too heavy. The Duane Reade Pharmacy by my apartment has a coin counter but of course, it was broken. I was carrying the change in a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser box because I was out of ziplock bags so I took the box with me to Chipotle for lunch. Cameron (brother) and Janae (mother) were with me. After a nice long two hour lunch, we got up to leave and left the fund on the table. Of course, I didn't realize it until the next morning. I returned to Chipotle and they swear that hadn't seen anything of the sort there. Yeah, like I believe them. A Mr. Clean Box full of change? P-lease. Now if I had been looking for a Lysol can full of nickels, I would have been in luck...

So I have to start another Ninja Fund. Start all over again. Ridiculous? No way.

Any food related dare. You name it, I'll do it. Just e-mail me, I'll record me eating it and post it on my new blog...

I will post a video clip there soon...

In the meantime, I am working on a four-step program to de-stress.

Love,
Jenna

Sometimes I'm lazy...

...and people complain. I'm BACK! I won't leave for that long ever again...probably.

These past few weeks, I've actually missed my blog and your comments but couldn't find the drive to write. I tried to blame my lack of posts on just about everything, for example:

1. "I don't remember how to turn my computer on."

2. I performed an experiment called "My Life Without the Internet." Conclusion: I have no real life.

3. The grocery store by my apartment stopped selling Garden Salsa SunChips. How am I supposed to write without them?

4. Updating my wikipedia page takes up a lot of time.

5. I was busy falling in love with David Archuleta.

6. I tried to avoid my blog until the democrats finally picked a candidate but it looks like that isn't going to happen anytime soon. Well not until August, most likely. I can't wait that long. Hillary has been wearing too many snazzy pant suits to go unnoticed.

7. I want my future potential employers to be able to google me and be thoroughly entertained. If you are considering hiring me...um...well...think about it this way. You can laugh about reading my blog in the office before you knew me and make fun of my eHarmony rejection, poor eating habits, self-deprecating sense of humor, bad taste in television, etc...

So those are my excuses. Yep. That's all I got. I'm getting back into this posting thing. Expect new stuff regularly. And if you don't like my writing, well, you can expect a reaction similar to this:



Love,
Jenna

P.S. The reason I've really been gone? I had to suffer through my last set of finals and graduate from New York University on Wednesday. Word...
