Catch-Up

I haven't posted in forever and I know that. I have PLENTY to talk about tho for sure. I have a whole bunch of posts to put up about my trip to LONDON!!! Complete with pictures.  But first of all, these are the things that my friends have said to/about me this week.  Some of them were kind hearted, others maybe not so much.

"We have lots of problems..."
"You're a crazy motha f****"
"You think too much about everything"
"You're dramatic"
"You over think every single detail"
"It's about time you had something positive in your life"
"You do know how to hit it pretty hard"

This is what my friends think of me.

Summer Bucket List

I'm sure you're all familiar with bucket lists. (don't EVER watch that movie with Morgan Freeman).  I have decided to make a bucket list since this is my last summer in college.  It's the last time I can do stupid stuff and still be able to tell people, "back when I was in college..."
This is my summer bucket list: (in no particular order)

1.  Learn to shoot a handgun
2.  Ice skate
3.  ACTUALLY go see movies
4.  Spend a majority of my free time at the beach with one of the besties
5.  Take a road trip (just a day trip at least) someplace new!
6.  Get another piercing
7.  sing karaoke 
8.  Don't think - just do
9.  Go to Lake Bryan
10.  Go to a concert
11.  go dancing - like country dancing
12.  Successfully make clothespin cookies
13.  keep in contact with everyone who is important to me
14.  Live in a clean apartment - all summer - Ashley, don't laugh too hard at that one
15.  READ
16.  Lay out & tannnnnnn
17.  work out
18.  Go bowling with friends frequently
19.  Pass Texas Government
20.  Float the river with friends!

The ones in italics are the ones I'm really nervous about....

Procrastination

So I'm at the park with my one of the besties, Ashley and what happens? We find ourselves in the midst of a really cheesy rom-com.  Let me set the scene a little:

Setting:  Breezy day, overcast but not gloomy.  Fairly windy. Public Park

Enter: Sorority chick (costume: triple extra large v-neck american apparel depicting a sorority sponsored event and some white shorts) and boyfriend (aggie uniform - maroon t-shirt and jean shorts).

In hand, the two have a kite.  Yes, a kite.  Now I'm just as cynical as the next single girl so let me ask you this, what is so fun about sitting down and holding a string and watching the dang kite just float?!? Well anyway, after about 20 minutes they finally got it up.  and then they just sat there.  Her with her arms around her knees holding the kite and him with his arm around her.  And that's it.  That's all they did.  Now, Ashley says that it is SOOOO ROMANTIC, but I just don't get it.  Maybe I'm emotionally stunted but they literally sat there for like an hour.  DOING NOTHING.  Do you not have finals to prepare for?!  Oh and to make them just that much more adorable, they left in a VW bug. He drove.

Am I crazy? Or was that just a little too cheesy???

Home Stretch

Okey, so here's the breakdown:
1 take home test that is 8 pages to finish by 2:00PM tomorrow
1 Take home test that consists of 3, 2-3 page (double spaced) essays Due tomorrow by 11:59 PM
1 online test that is 40 questions with 25 minutes to take it in available after Wednesday.

What does this mean??? It means that by Wednesday night, I will be DONESKIES with my Junior year of college.  Seriously?! Seriously!!!!

Just a Spruce

I thought I'd spruce up the blog a tad! It's been the same for quite awhile!  I decided to go with the paris theme because 1) I am OBSESSSSSSED with ALL THINGS PARIS and 2) I WILL BE IN PARIS IN A MONTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can we please just focus on that for a second?! In one month, the sister will be graduated and we will be hanging out in London and Paris like the little jet setters we aspire to be!!!!!!

Whirlwind!

The past few weekends have been a whirlwind of stuff!!! So I've got my last few days of classes and placement left and with that means like a thousand projects..... Oh how I hate projects.  On the plus side, all of my finals are either online or take home tests!! whoop!!! :)  SO that means I won't have to waste valuable time studying!  So the last two weekends I've gone home to San Antonio to spend time with the family as well as see some friends.  Jessica and I have been spending more and more time together when I'm home which is always super fantastic and then there is all the fun partying I get to do there now!!
While the last few weekends have been all about fun, this weekend was jam packed with stuff!  Friday I subbed which wasn't too terrible actually! And then I got ready for Aggie Relay for Life.  This is an event that I truly love! It is an event put on by the American Cancer Society and the whole 12 hour event mirrors the cancer diagnosis and treatment.  When you start the night at 7PM, you are pumped and strong and ready to spend 12 hours awake, just like when you are first diagnosed with cancer, you have strength and are determined to beat it.  As the night goes on, or as treatment goes on, it gets tough to keep going, your legs are sore from walking, you're tired, it's freaking cold and windy and you just can't get warm, your spirit lessens as well as your strength.  Then as you see dawn, you see that you aren't that far away from the finish line.  It's such a beautiful experience and I got to spend it with such an amazing group of people!!! It definitely makes me sad that this could be my last spring semester at A&M :(

Then when I came home in the wee hours Saturday morning, I slept till 1 and then tried to be productive....I got some homework done, and one load of laundry (of like 5 to be done...). Then Ashley came over with some pints of coldstone (could she be any better??) and we watched Friends and had girl time!

Then, a group of boys asked me to come over for some drinks and that if I came over, they'd watch the meteor shower with me!  So around 11 I went over and they're just always so much fun to hang out with! We ended up piling in a truck and going to the middle of nowhere to watch for meteors and guess what!  We actually saw some! And by some, I mean a bunch!!!!!! It was cold, but we were having so much fun trying to figure out if a slasher was going to come out of the woods and who was gonna die first, that we didn't notice how cold it was!

I'm happy with everything right now and can't believe that in 24 days, I'm leaving for LONDON!!!!!!!

Tentative

UGH! I hate tentative plans......If we have plans, we have them, if you don't want to have them, don't make/agree to them.....
