I am developing this complex about the clothes I "should" be wearing at my age, and I'm not really sure what opinion to form.
By the way, for any stupid people who can't understand the difference - you can look/dress/act young without being immature or childish. Case in point, I can wear around my G.I.R. shirt and still NOT act like a mean girl in high school trying to start problems with everyone I meet. So, one can have a young spirit, interests, tastes, etc without acting like a dramatic or spoiled little girl. If you can't tell that there's a difference, then please stop reading my posts. haha.

Anti-College Sentiment
I think these days I have become anti-college. Too many people are going, and there aren't enough college educated jobs to accommodate to all the English, Art, Language, and other degrees being mass produced. Even lawyers and biologists are having hard times getting a job.
And I ask you, why in the last decade or so do we need degrees to be police officers? These need hands on, real world training, not four years of classroom experience (with several years of extra electives that hold no value to the position).
I'm also lumping this in with my review of the Academy of Art University, in which I'm on the fence about ever returning again.

Not Quite a Holiday Song
This cracks me up, and it's all I've got for a holiday song this time around. She's so happy to dance with her Rio Angry Bird plushies, haha. Happy MLKJ Day!

All is Not Sunny in Japthenopia
As the princess of the Japthenopian people, I was appalled to find this video!
My response is as follows:
Do not believe the lies of Dani Quinn!

FIRE
If you follow my vlogs, you know that I highly recommend Bath and Body Works in several of my videos. I have a huge shelf in my closet, with over 100 lotions, soaps, and sanitizers from the store. I love Les Wexner, his Center for the Arts is my favorite building at OSU, where I bought the very Mac that I am typing on right now. I even brag about my Black Friday haul at BBW at http://meganvlog.blogspot.com/2011/11/within-consumer-maddness-black-friday.html
So, when I say that today was a horrible experience of a BBW candle (made by Slatkin & Co) becoming dangerously flammable, I am not coming from the stance of being a hater of the company.
Since BBW deleted my Facebook query on what the heck happened here, I am taking the liberty to make my video and photos open to the public. I don't like corporate cover ups for dangerous products! This was a candle purchased at Bath & Body Works in the scent of Twisted Peppermint.
No idea what happened, I opened up my bathroom door and found this today. I already had the candle in the sink because I don't trust glass jar candles (one shattered when I was 14 and set the curtains on fire, so I only light candles in non-flammable locations - never expected a giant flame like this though, it could have set my vanity mirror on fire!). At first, I thought it was some oddity, so I started recording the phenomenon. After about 30 seconds of watching the flame size vary, with no hint of the fire dying down, I had to get the fire extinguisher to put out the fire. This resulted in hot wax being sprayed all over my bathroom, and since my bathroom is all tile, this is a very difficult cleaning process (not to mention all the smoke).
I contacted Bath and Body Works on Facebook for reasons that may have caused this, but my post was deleted without response. Currently contacting customer service now, but I have no problem going to speak with our lawyer if no further responses are given. It's one thing for a fluke to occur in a product and the company to apologize for the situation; it's quite another to ignore it when the customer sends you video footage of the incident - which could have easily burnt down our house!
And no, there was nothing additional that I, or anyone else, added to the candle, except for the single match that I used to light the wicks (it burnt my finger and I dropped it in there). My friend at Crabby Candle Co has helped me search for answers among candle makers, and the consensus is that the fragrance oil did not melt properly, was concentrated in a pocket in the wax, or some other similar problem. I have never seen anything like this happen before in my life, and I certainly will never purchase another BBW candle again!
