The Superbowl SUCKS!

I'm very bored. The Superbowl sucks this year. I've seen one good comercial. I dozed off for awhile, I studied for a little while and now I've given up and I should be doing my history but I'm writing in this. I had a good weekend. Just hung out by myself and read my book while "baby-sitting" my little sister. Talked about Lissy's wedding plans which was fun. Friday I got a bathing suit and then went to Gordy's birthday party which was rather boring and then Dani and I went to see The Wedding Date which was enjoyable. My mood was greatly improved upon returning...see how long that lasts. Going home next weekend too for Cassandra's baby shower and more family bonding. I don't get my car which sucks and makes me irate but whatcha gonna do? Lesson to all here: Don't piss off your parents.
On a lighter note, I did finish my book which was fun and also got some clothes from my mom's friend's daughter. That was exciting. I love free clothes. Anyways, off to do my history.

I'm a bum...

Friday. I'm a bum. haha. I wasn't gonna sleep after class but I came back and suddenly I was really tired. I was talking to Matt and all of the sudden I started yawning. So when he went to his test it was back to bed for an hour for me. haha...and then I woke up over two hours later. So instead of showering I went to lunch dirty and forced Ross and Matt to deal with my stench. haha...sorry. Anyways, by the time I got there all the oreo cookie pie was gone. I was so disappointed. Why do I need oreo cookie pie you ask when I'm about to go bathing suit shopping? I don't. But I wanted it. And since my own son had two pieces, I guilted him into giving his poor, unneeding mother one. It was delicious but I had to protect it from attack and some rude individual STOLE a bite. But I'm generous and I don't need all that pie so I shared. Then William and I walked back to Wesley cause no one likes me and would go check mail. So we almost got hit by a car and someone let out a bad bad curse word in front of his own MOTHER. and then we were walking (still alive) and singing Captain Planet and there was a squirrel in a tree and he tried to kick it. It made me chuckle. I need to take wonderful naps more often cause I'm much more cheerful. Now I'm getting ready to go home and shopping with Danielle. And as Kristen will be here in a couple of minutes I better go get this show on the road.

Thursday

I really have nothing to say. I just also have nothing to do. I could start on homework for next week but who does that? Obviously not me. Today was soo much better than yesterday. Yesterday was green beans and today was cheesecake. Cheesecake would have made today even better. I seriously have a food addiction. And Dani and I are going bathing suit shopping tomorrow. I'm pretty sure the two don't mix. Oh well. I have no one to impress on that cruise. I'll go naked. Tonight we signed up for skip a meal. Everyone else went to Subway but I was good and realized my poorness and ate Shells and Cheese. Only I was trying to be frugal and got the Meijers brand. They suck. I'm glad I made Matt eat most of them last time cause they were gross. So of course that gave me license to snack during The OC. Which I almost had to watch by myself. Kristin showed up so that was fun. I stole her away from studying...haha...Sorry! Steph made a few appearances when I enticed her with popcorn. Jackie however hates us now...haha...jk. However, I am on my own for ER. I've done no work since my classes today. I've finally found time to read The Da Vinci Code so that's exciting. My tests sucked today. I really am starting to think I failed econ. Oh well. And I know I messed up a few on Accounting. Monday could be a very bad day indeed. Oh well...No need to worry. Ballroom was so much fun though so that was good. We worked on Salsa. I'm soo bad...Way too white...There must be no Latin blood in me at all. I suck. But its tons of fun. We were really short on guys today so I was dancing with Steph and one of the TA's a lot. And if you don't know who our TA's you don't understand how fun it is. These guys are HUGE. Like taller than Matt probably and I mean HUGE...Like big football players. But they're so good at dancing and when they spin you you spin really fast...haha...its so much fun. They're so much fun to dance with. Its just funny that these big football players are TA's for Ballroom and Folkdancing class. The one Steph and I were dancing was telling us about Salsa clubs. We are so gonna go when we learn. Stephs pretty good...She can shake it...But anyone who's ever seen me dance knows that I can't. I'm working on it though. Steph told me to just shake it...She says she's getting sexier by the moment...haha...I still need to work on that one apparently.
I was singing some Enrique to Jackie earlier before I made my dinner really loud and bad like most of my singing is when Steph ims me from down the hall and is like "is that you?" haha...I didn't realize how much sound can travel in here. Haha...Sorry to anyone who was harmed by it...I had an enjoyable time.
Well I've wasted enough of everyone's time. I'm gonna go read some more before ER.
On another note...I found a ride home! Hopefully this will improve my mood greatly.

I can't sleep :(

I'm so tired but I can't sleep. This sucks. I went to bed before 1 tonight, cause I have tons to do tomorrow but I can't sleep. I layed in bed for an hour. I have a voicemail but I'm much to lazy to go outside and listen. I hope its my parents with good news. Probably not though. Oh well. Too much on my mind. I don't know why. Just suddenly starting thinking. Nothing bad. Just thinking. I just want to sleep. This is punishment for taking a nap this morning after communications. But that nap improved my day. I was no where near as cranky as I usually am on Tuesdays. Though that may have been because I skipped the History movie to go to the Econ test. I so need to study tomorrow. I think I may have to make a sojourn to the library so I can concentrate. I just don't feel like working lately. Such a slacker. Oh well. Perhaps I should go try to sleep again. Otherwise my entire plan is going to be thrown off. haha. My schedules never work out. I love sleeping too much. Goodnight!

Keeping Busy after a Great Weekend

This was seriously the best weekend I've had since Christmas break. Only three weeks I know but the past three weeks haven't been especially good. So this was a nice reprieve. Though I was freaking out cause I thought we were going to be late to pick Matt up on Friday, Steph and I had a successful road trip to Battle Creek. Then Matt and I basically just hung out all weekend. We were antisocial but considering I never get to see him, I didn't feel especially bad about it. And Jackie, being the wonderful roommate that she is, allowed us to use her car so we made a trip into Jackson and I got new shampoo and also some cheese cubes which I've been craving for forever. We got lost going to the bus stop today. Who knew it'd be at the train station? I was freaking out once again. Apparently I don't handle tardiness well. The one time I was tardy in high school came senior year because there was a super slow train. Luckily I was behind a school bus and apparently Struck liked me or something because I didn't get it marked. Not that it matters. Anyways, we made it in time. Fortunately and unfortunately. While I would have loved to miss it, I would have felt horrible that my stupidity cost money because someone has a complex, yes a complex, about allowing me to pay for things. So this afternoon pretty much sucked cause I was not a happy camper. However, I stayed busy and while I'm still not the happiest clown in the car, I'm not crying anymore...Bonus! haha. I did my laundry and the major turning point in my mood came when someone had two dryers going (I was sitting down there forever waiting) and she took her clothes out early, giving me one with 10 minutes and one with two. Two isn't a lot I know but it saved me money cause I didn't have to start from the beginning so it was cheaper. Now I finished my history reading for tomorrow and I figured out how to change some of the settings on this so now everyone can comment if they want...Not that many people read this I'm sure. Anywho...I'm going to see if Steph wants to order our dinner and then later I'm going to call Matt who is sitting on a bus. Only 3 more weeks!

Rent

I have just finished a midnight snack of pickles and saltines. Steph came and partook and regaled us with tales of her evening. Apparently The OC didn't tape and maybe not ER. I'm such a recording failure. It would have been better had it been in pieces like the last few things I've taped. But I'm not going to complain. I had a good night and tomorrow Matt will be here.
Jackie gave blood and so I got her ticket and was just going to meet her at the bus. However, as I cross the street she is coming out of Goodrich parking lot and she hasn't ate dinner yet as she was giving blood. So I decide that yeah, we have enough time to go get you food from the room so we both go back and as I'm warming up her soup I look at the clock and see that its 6:27. The email said that the bus left at 6:30...it waited for no one...haha. So we run out of Wesley, across the street and are sprinting down the street to the bus. About halfway there we hear the bus make a bus noise. Not sure what it meant but it scared us so I'm sprinting to get there to tell them to wait cause obviously, this girl has just lost a pint of blood. We make it and Jackie is mean (haha...jk!) and makes the girl next to her feel like trash and move so we can sit together and off we go to Rent. It was really good. I nearly shed a tear. I was seriously about to but I controlled myself. When we got back I called Matt on his bus excursion and woke him up (though he denied it and got slightly hostile...haha). Then I came in and here I am. Downloading Rent songs and thinking about how I should have done Communications questions. Oh well...off to bed...I can't wait till tomorrow!

Soco Amaretto & Summer Dreaming...

Hmm...I'm taking a study break which makes no sense as I've only been working for like half an hour. Its amazing what making a to do list does for your perspective. One would think that it would motivate, which is why I make it. In hopes that it will motivate me. But seeing all my tasks listed just makes me want to go do something else. Not sure what that else is, but its definitely not homework.
So I was bad and skipped Econ today. Hopefully I won't be totally behind when I go back tomorrow. I just couldn't force myself to go. Although what I did instead wasn't very productive because sometimes I just suck at things. In this case it seems to be often. I really wish I was more helpful.
I'm listening to a mix cd I burned from my sister last spring. It makes me think of spring. One night in particular when I was folding laundry with the window open in my bedroom listening to this one song in particular...Soco Amaretto. It describes my summer so well. I didn't want it to end. It was seriously the best I've ever had. Though in the song they're passed out and stuff and that definitely wasn't me but still...Its not the lyrics that mean so much as what I associate it with. Which really isn't summer yet, just spring and being carefree. I need it to be spring and Friday all at the same time. I'm wishing it was Friday more but Spring is second. Fourteen weeks from today I'll be home. It seems so long away, and while I know I'm not supposed to wish my life away, right now I'd give anything for it to be spring and this summer. I shouldn't be thinking about it already. It simply makes it harder, but I've been focused on it quite a bit lately. I'll be getting home in early May, which is one of my favorite times and listening to this song, I just wish I was back, matching my socks and looking out the window.
Just a little bit of reminiscing.
I also found out that we're flying down for spring break so I won't be leaving till early Sunday morning and I'll be back at like 9 or 10 Friday night. That makes me happy because if Matt comes home then I can see him. And while I still don't want to go, knowing that makes it a little more bearable.
It seriously needs to be Friday evening. Maybe tomorrow and Friday will go by quick. At least the Friday before he gets here. Then I hope it goes as slow as these past 3 weeks have. Wishful thinking I know...
