Corina-isms

Words are great, the ability to mix them up and change them around is even better. You can convey so much more with a single modified word than with a whole sentence. I think this is why I loved the musical "Wicked"...it was Oz-tastic...hello! "de-greenify"?! It's like I wrote the script, really. =)

There are definitely words, phrases, expressions, etc. that I use often. Here are some, but I'm sure there are MANY more:
  • "blahfriend" or "fauxfriend" - On the verge of being a boyfriend, but falling short of that status. It often looks like a romantic relationship on the outside, but in reality it was never defined.
  • "booty-eyes" - The palest green I've ever seen, the color of your eyes...
  • "Bruined" - something that has been ruined because of its affiliation with a cross-town rival.
  • "crackberry" - I did not make this one up, but I understand it VERY well.
  • "day-th" - Plans with someone of the opposite sex that is not a date. It usually occurs during the day...like lunch.
  • "derustify" - The act of going out, having fun, meeting people, in order to get yourself back into the dating "game".
  • "fobulous" - Fabulously fob of course!
  • "get all 'Emily' about it" - Refusing someone from talking to someone else because they have a history (Think Ross, Rachel, and Emily from Friends).
  • "getting fresh" - Granted I did not make this phrase up, but I have been using it a lot lately. I wish it were on better terms, but no.
  • "ham-tastic" - a delicious dish that has pork, bacon, or ham in it.
  • "happy nappy" - The best naps that last anywhere between 45 minutes to 2 hours. You wake up completely refreshed.
  • "hum-min-ah" - The degree and speed at which you say this phrase indicates just how hot that guy over there is...
  • "kill me" - equivalent to "I just said/did something stupid" and always pertains to a boy.
  • "Lucy" - My sassy alter-ego.
  • "meh" - Equivalent to "Just not feeling it"
  • "Moanday" - Mondays, they are the worst.
  • "ponytail time" - The time of the day when you just have to pull your hair back and forge through the rest of the workday.
  • "shirt-fit" - A body that is so fit, that it makes a plain old t-shirt look gooood.
  • "slak" - A guy who "Sounds Like A Keeper" in the most sarcastic sense of the phrase
  • "super-fabu" - super fabulous :)
  • "worry dreams" - The freaky premonition dreams I have about my friends.
