Oh how I love Mick Jagger

Mmk, it's time for the real blog of the day, since the last post was just me overloaded on caffeine. haha. Anyways. Today was a good day. But then again, everyday for the next eight years will be a good day no matter what happens! So I woke up and Jordan and I went to get advised, and I'm annoyed because I can't have "photojournalism" as my minor. It has to be photography in the Art Department which sucks because i'll have to take "art" classes. But whatever. I'll just deal with it.
Then I went to Advertising and found out we got a 95 on our presentation which definitely helps me cause I need to get my grade up in that class. Shooting for a B in there, A's in Interpersonal and Rock and Roll, and hopefully B's in Cinema and Copy Editing and hopefully an A in Digital Photography. So that would bring my GPA to about a 3.2 or so and that would make the parental units happy. Hopefully. Even if I had a 4.0 I'm sure they could find something to complain about. Anyways, then me and Jordan and Brandon had yummy wraps for lunch. Then went to work and had fun times in the office tonight. Hopefully most of the editors will stay the same next semester except for the two that are graduating in December.
Then I went with my Big for "Big/Little Games Night." Played with water balloons and M&Ms in the mouth and Scattergories. Then went to the UC and "studied" with jordan and brandon for awhile. Then Stevie joined us and we all went to Taco Bell at like midnight cause we were real hungry. It was a good fourth meal. and now i am wide awake at 1:15 a.m. I am not going to my 9:30 class tomorrow though since he posts the notes online and doesn't take roll. It's all good. I have a Photoshop test in Photography tomorrow so I'll get done early and then be able to actually eat lunch. Then Copy Editing and Cinema, and then it's the weekend!!! Woot. I"m excited to be getting initiated this weekend! And on Monday I will get to wear my new stichhhhh. So happy.

I Love Drunk People at Taco Bell at midnight

So apparantly everyone really is getting married!!!!!!! Just found out my ex is engaged. Goodness. That means that everyone in my group of friends at my first job is either engaged or married already. Except me. haha. Wow wow wow.

p.s. i loves me some late night taco bell runs with the best franssss. :]

Yes We Did!!!!

Barack Obama was just elected to be the 44th president. This is epic. This is one of the defining moments of my young life. I am so proud of America!!! YES WE DID!!!!!!

Election Day

It is officially November 4, 2008. The most important day in my young life. The day that Barack Obama will become the next president of the United States. I am so nervous and excited. I plan on staying up until we find out who won later tonight. I will pull an all-nighter if need be! I don't know what I will do if he doesn't win. I know all my faith in politics will be even further lost. There would be no point in being involved in politics anymore if that happens. But hopefully I won't have to dabble in thoughts like those much longer. Here's to change.

Getting Old

So I just found out another one of my friends from high school is getting married. It makes me feel like I'm getting old. Which I really am. I finally feel like I'm growing up. I'm going to be out of college in a year and half from now if everything goes the way I have it planned. I have a bunch of friends that are planning on getting married soon and that are already engaged. Which is awesome if that is what they want. But even though I am in a great relationship, I don't see myself getting married after or while I am in college. Is that a bad thing? No, I don't think so. Not for me anyways. Even though I'm getting older I don't feel like I should be getting married anytime soon. Back in high school I remember I wanted to go out and travel the world before I settled down. I'm only 19 years old and I know I am not mature enough to make a big life decision like that even though I am in a happy relationship. I know the time will eventually get here when I am ready for it, but for now I need to concentrate on getting a good job when I graduate and getting on my own two feet. I just want my parents and everyone to really see that I can get by on my own. It's going to feel so good in a couple years when I can buy my own car and apartment all by myself. I just want to be successful at whatever it is that is meant for me in life.

Insomnia

Do you ever have those days where you want to run away and lie in a field and just do nothing but eat marshmallows and sing happy songs and forget about everything? Well I'm having one of those days right now, at 2:30 a.m. on a Monday morning. I just wish things could be easy and everything would fall into place. I am having extreme insomnia right now because I can't stop thinking about things and life. I'm nervous about finding a good internship for next summer. Originally I was going to apply for internships at some of the major dailies around Texas, but since the newspaper industry is going down the toilet, I really don't see the point of interning at a place I know I won't be able to get a job with after I graduate. So now my goal is to apply for internships at magazines. All the places I"m applying to are in NYC and they seem super hard to get into. It would be such a great opportunity to be able to intern in New York next summer, and I wish that I had a chance. I'm just an average college girl from Texas. But it's all dumb luck anyway, so maybe I will get lucky.
The election is on Tuesday. Tomorrow. In less than 48 hours we will know who the next president is going to be. The polls are showing Obama in the lead, but it's still really scary to think he might not win. I will be so depressed if Obama does not win. Back in 2004 I was upset when Bush got reelected, but this will be on an entirely different scale of depression. Let's all hope Barack can pull through.
I really need to get my sleep schedule back on track. I guess daylight savings time kind of messed me up, but you would think I would be tired by nearly 3 a.m. I don't really feel too well either. Hopefully it's just allergies and will go away after I take some meds. I hope blogging cleared my mind a little bit so I can go to sleep. I have a big day tomorrow including a presentation in advertising, and a test in interpersonal communication. And I need to do well in both because I need to get my G.P.A. up.

I Believe In A Thing Called Love

So it's 3:30 a.m. (well, technially 2:30 because daylight savings time just occured) and I am wide awake. Today was an interesting day. Woke up at noon and then went to have brunch with Brandon a little bit after that. Ran into Stephanie so we ate with her and just chewed the fat for awhile. Then we're walking back to my room, and I pull out my key and it is literally bent in half! I don't know what happened, but we couldn't get it to bend back into place. So I had to talk to the front desk and thank god they gave me a new key without charging me. It was crazy haha. We basically just hung out in my room all day except for an excursion to Taco Bueno for dinner. By like 9 or 10 we started feeling really blah and I was really homesick, so I needed to get out and do something. We decided to walk around and maybe go get some food, and we're walking down the street and happen to see Stevie and Jared driving and it turns out they were super bored too. So we all get into Stevie's car and decided to go to Walmart at 11 o'clock at night. Got to jam out to The Darkness and Cheap Trick, so what could be better? Fun times. At Walmart they already were playing Christmas music and had all the Christmas candy out and it was only November 1st! But that's OK with me because I love love love Christmas! Now I'm just sitting here. Probably should go to bed because that's what people do around this time of night. We'll see.
