Friday :)

So today. French (blah) and then Seth & I went to sign some of his papers, we went and saw his grandma, ate at Subway :), then went to get me some new tires and then to my house! Then Ava, Mom, Seth & I went out to eat and Seth & I babysat Ava for a little while when my mom had an appointment. That really was it, though. Boring week! Maybe that will change!!

And BONES last night - was not cool! Booth basically said "let's be together" and Bones said no! She is crazy.

Wednesday & Thursday

So Wednesday was fairly uneventful as well. Took a French test (hopefully passed!) and then Human Sexuality SUCKED. I'm about to vent about my teacher. We'll call him Dr. H. Dr. H was such an ass today. He basically called our entire class stupid. For no reason. He said "Can you all even make a connection? Do you know what that is?" And honestly. It irritated me. A lot. Of course I can make a connection. FOR EXAMPLE: Asshole professor + pissed off students = BAD REVIEWS AT THE END OF THE SEMESTER. How about that for a connection Dr. H? lol.
Then on Thursday, we (me and two friends) presented at SPARC. Student Psychological Annual Research Conference. It went really well - we presented "What's in a name?" It was really cool. Dr H did not attend! Yay! :p

Law and Order: Criminal Intent was.... not cool. Not cool at all. I am NOT ready for no more Goren or Eames. That sucks. I guess Law and Order: SVU is my favorite now. If they get rid of Elliot and Benson they will lose a viewer for sure. :/

Today was boring. And kind of sucked. Tomorrow I have a gross french test that I really just want to pass. And I need to draw something for Theatre. Did I mention that I can't draw?

That'll be good.

Not grumpy, just not interested in my own day, or my own tomorrow really.

Goodnight all.

Just Another Manic Monday..

“It's the bad days that make the good days seem better.”

Mondays. I hate Mondays, and this one certainly won't change my mind. My ankle is all messed up. I'm pretty sure I rolled it instead of spraining it, but oh well. It does not feel good. I was running late today. Lucy growled at me. :/ That was all before class! haha.

Took a Human Sexuality test, went to advising w/ a friend - helped friend stop freaking out because of the HORRIBLE advisor, ate, went to stupid Theatre and sat there with all the annoying smart kids, rode the bus (ugh) because of my ankle, and came home. How eventful! Not really. Mondays just stink.

OH! And our apt complex has decided that everyone's rent will go up $100 when we renew our lease. Make that "If" we renew our lease! $855 a month for an apartment is KIND OF ridiculous.

On the bright side: We are presenting at SPARC on Thursday and we got our time! Yay for building our resumes! Also, got the puppies graduation picture today. I am of course not looking and everyone else is. :) But it's good of the babies!

Saturday & Sunday

Oh what a weekend! I am SO SO SO very tired. If I have french homework, I'll be surprised to find it all done at 11 am tomorrow.

First off, HAPPY EASTER everyone! I hope everyone celebrated it in a way that made them happy. My Easter was pretty good. Church was great, as usual. I think I just love that I can sing as much as I want and it doesn't have to sound like a radio. Of course I like the sermons (our pastor is super funny) but I have always enjoyed singing. I miss doing it like I used to in Oxford and all that. But we all went to church - the boys looked so pretty and so did miss Ava! hahah. They all looked like Easter eggs. :) Mom was stressed getting everyone ready - I hope one day that stress goes away for her. She might enjoy us more that way.

Well after church we went and ate lunch and then I went over to Nanny's to play with the puppies and hang out with them. (FYI: I have the greatest grandparents ever. they are hilarious.) After that we (me, nanny and papa) went back to Mom's (and everyone's) for Easter dinner. We played with the doggies and ate yummy food and in general no one was too grumpy. (This is difficult in my family. I'm pretty sure we are in the top 5 moodiest families EVER.)

This brings me to Saturday and why my dogs were at my grandparents. First off, my grandparents only live maybe 10 mins away from my mom's house. Secondly, I'm pretty sure my stepdad abhors dogs. :/ I know, how can anyone not love dogs? But that's a topic for another day. So Nanny said I could bring them to her house and we'd let them run around in her giant back yard. It's probably over an acre. So rather than have them crated in my parents' garage and only let out to walk, they got to play at Nanny's. They LOVED it, FYI. They got so much energy out they are STILL tired! But after I dropped them off there the first time, me and mom went to go see The Last Song. It was SOOOO good. I cried. Quite a bit. And even though I don't love Miley Cyrus, she did a great job and the movie was fantastic. Definitely comparable to The Notebook in a different way. Buying it.

After the movies, me and Mom met up with Mark, Will, Zach & Ava for dinner. Then me, mom, and Ava went shopping and went and bought flowers for the cross this morning. They were so pretty. After that, I went to Nanny's and everyone went home. Me and the puppies slept nicely in Nanny's living room. :) Got up early - like 7:15. And I feel very accomplished today. Me and Nanny walked the dogs this morning, then we went to church, then came back, walked them again, let them run around the backyard a lot, she cooked (I'm banned from the kitchen) and then we went to Mom's house for all the rest.

Sure, this post is rambling and long. But I felt like typing and documenting my weekend. One more thing that I think is so cool. In the Covington News there is a "Pet of the Week." It looks JUST like Chevy and they say it's a Dachshund/Pomeranian mix. So I googled that once I got here to see if they were right. Check this out if you've every seen Chevy up close and/or care.

Friday :)

So today was pretty good. :) Kind of exciting actually. Went to french - but I realized I only have 12 days left of French!!!!! EVER!!! I can definitely make it now that I know that. And for the first time in a looooong time I'm excited about my schedule! Especially for the fall! First of all - NO FRENCH. After 4 semesters of college french, I am so ready for a schedule that does not involve grammar or the french dictionary. I'm taking: Family Violence, Juvenile Delinquency, What Matters in Psychology?, Terrorism, and Sexuality & Spirituality!! Score. And this summer only one of my classes should suck! I'm taking: Psychology of Dreams, Sociology of Social Psychology and History. (Guess which one will be boring. Yep, History.)

Besides all of this - I went back to a place I haven't been since high school! The Atlanta Shakespeare's Tavern. It was really nice to not be volunteering and experience the tavern from a different perspective. The show (King Lear) was really good! Some parts were quite funny, which was nice. Plus, Atlanta was absolutely beautiful tonight. I'm sure it always is. That's the only reason I can think of to live in Atlanta - to see it at night. During the day it's not that impressive. To me at least. Anyways - going home tomorrow for Easter. Taking the puppies to Nanny's house so they can run around the backyard! :)

Au Revoir 1 or 2 people that read this. :p

Numero Sept

I'm sorry but totally basically completely SUCKED. And sadly, that is NOT an April Fools joke. I found out that some moron (can't help it..) put my tires on backwards, causing the tread to wear down wrong and basically demolishing my front wheel bearings. Maybe worse. YAY! :/

Today wasn't a total loss though. Seth made some really yummy dinner. :) And we got ink for the printer! :) Yay for the few good things that happened with the really bad, really expensive news! :p

Tomorrow I probably won't update about until Saturday - Seth and I are going to the Shakespeare's Tavern to see King Lear for my Theatre Appreciation class. I hope it's good! I used to volunteer there several times a year (probably more than 10) and it was good back then! Wonder if any of those actors will still be there?! That would be kind of cool.

Anyways. Kind of in a yucky mood. Going to finish writing/revising my french composition. Yay.

Au revoir! :) xoxo
