I wish I could be friends with Hello Kitty...

Halfway through the weekend :o( But I'm almost done with the semester!! :o) It's actually bittersweet: on one hand, I'll finally be done with this extremely difficult semester, but on the other hand, I'll be moving out of my apartment from two amazing young ladies...makes me sad. And one of them is moving away from me, and the other will be moving at the end of the summer. :o(

This week has been abnormal for me. I worked 7 hour days Monday and Tuesday, and did not work the rest of the week, in the hopes of getting all of my assignments done. I haven't finished everything, but am pretty happy with what I have so far. Tomorrow will be a busy day.

I love twitter. It is infinitely cooler than facebook. That's all.

I just took a typing test to see if I've gotten slower since my 8th grade keyboarding class. I haven't! It was pretty sweet.

Today was a really great day...my parents came to up to College Station to bring me some boxes and such. We ended up picking out my furniture and it was super fun! My parents are so, so sweet. We ended up getting a couch:and ottoman (not the chair, it would not fit in my apartment!):

and a dinette set (the style name is Hayley, how random!):

Then we went to Carinos, where I had the most delish strawberry lemonade I do believe I've ever consumed. Yummy. We came back to my apartment and packed up a good bit of my belongings, which made me pretty sad. I have nothing on the walls, except for some nails that my mom said I could take out myself ;o) That's all for now, I'll leave you with my fave picture of Brody Bear!

I actually got my homework done during the daytime this week! Yay! It has been thundery and rainy all day though, so there wasn't too much I could have done other than lounge and be productive. Tyson's old outfit is supposed to have a BBQ for parents' weekend tonight, but I really don't want to get out in this weather! I am hoping he decides it is unsafe to travel :o) Although I still want to go see 17 Again tonight...

Life has been good. I'm trying to not freak out about the amount of work I have before the end of the semester, and stick to my to do list. I rearranged my work schedule so I'm working longer hours Monday and Tuesday and taking the rest of the week off. Hopefully that helps me stay on track. I have this "Presentation of Self" project tomorrow...I had been freaking out because the instructions were super ambiguous, but I think I finally got a handle on the project. We had to pick a song that describes us (she wanted us to sing! haha no way!) and then talk about stuff...anyways, I picked "The Climb" by Miley Cyrus because I really like it...and it's sweet. That's all.

Ok well I am going to go make a card and work out...Class all day tomorrow :o(

It's been too long!

I am so bad at this updating thing. I would blame being busy, but I don't think it's an extremely valid excuse. This weekend has been amazing thus far--just relaxing with my favorite puppy, Tyson, and parents, eating and drinking yummy things, watching movies, reading, and sleeping.

I bought Confessions of a Shopaholic a few weeks ago while I went to Barnes and Noble with JoJo in an effort to finish off a gift card I'd had too long. It was on one of those tables at the front with the title "Popular Reads" or "Books that are Now Movies" or something like that. I saw the movie (twice) and loved it, and figured I would like the book too...but it took me a long time to get interested in (it's a very different premise from the movie). I finally got into the story on Thursday, and finished it that night. It was really cute and endearing...I joined a goodreads.com and I think the reviews are varied, but I loved it. Laugh out loud funny. I highly recommend it, and the second book is even better (I love it when that happens!).

In other news, school is crazy right now. I should really be working on a case study, but oh well. Tyson has a 20 page paper due on Monday, and I can see him sweeping mines in the kitchen on his laptop. ;o) I bought a new Cricut cartridge that I am in love with, but have vowed that I will not use it until May 2nd (all of my assignments are due then). Work is pretty good...I guess. I've worked there about 11 months, which have definitely flown by.

Things I am looking forward to in May: school being out!, Brody's half birthday (2nd), dogsitting (11th), new Mat Kearney cd (19th), moving into my new apartment (21st), and Hawaii (22nd)!
