Blog Resurrection!

I haven't been on blogger in quite some time, but I think that it's time to come back. There are just some certain things you can't do on Tumblr. So I am just warning you that you will see a lot more of me on here and more links on Facebook, Tumblr and Twitter. I just like that there are so many more things to customize here. So, for now I will just tell you, not to mention that there is a new name coming too!!!! (Sorry, I get excited over silly things lol)

I guess that's why they call this love.

I don't know what has happened. I obviously don't understand what you two have. Or had. But I can tell you one thing.  I. Don't. Like. It. Over the past year you have changed so stinkin' much I don't even recognize you anymore. I really really liked you. I still really care for you and that's my problem. I let myself down cause no one ever cares for me like I do for them. So I am stopping the bus right here. I'm done. I'm looking out for myself when I say that I will never ever like you again nor anyone else like that. The end.

Nerd alert!

I seriously think I am the biggest nerd ever! I am thoroughly enjoying Organic Chemistry at this point. We have had two classes, only one of which was a lecture, but I am loving taking my notes outside of class and doing the homework and even working ahead, doing the practice problems and studying for our first test. Seriously, I am enjoying my organic homework. Wierd, I know. The other homework I have is just homework. Obligatory. Not organic. I am doing for fun. To pass the time. I think this will be a busy, yet wonderful year. :)

In other news, I got 3rd chair in orchestra for the second year in a row. I am just glad I have not moved back any. The music is pretty enjoyable we are playing this year. Also, I am so glad that babysitting is over. Hallelujah!! Anyway, I should get back to homework, but I just wanted everyone to know that I am officially a nerd. :) The end.

Hope your first week back to school was a grand one!

new (school) year's resolution // being healthier

Hello again! Pardon the cryptic and slightly despressing nature of the previous blog. I promised myself I wouldn't put that junk on this blog anymore, but hey, we all backslide now and then. Today, I am just sitting at the funeral home chilling until this evening when I am going to church and then hanging out with my bestest friends! It's been forever since we have all hung out! I miss it :( Well, anyway, I guess I will get to the actual nature of this post. A New (School) Year's Resolution!!!

Last year, I spent a lot of my breaks from class traveling to and fro. In other words, I went home a lot! What did that mean for me? I used a lot of gas (which got that terrible city gas mileage), I didn't use that time wisely and I ate on the go a lot. This year I don't want to do that. I don't want to go home as much. It would be really nice to only travel to school and back once in a day. This is going to allow me a lot more time finishing up homework while still at school and give me a lot more free time. In this free time, I want to start working out on a regular basis. Even if I don't go to the Drury gym, I still want to work out on the Wii or simply get outside more.

Also, by staying at school I will have to eat on campus, which means I can take advantage of the super healthy salad bar!! (And the occasional smoothie from the CX ;) ) My goal is to not lose weight or anything (although that would be a double bonus!) just to feel better and healthier. I just don't want to feel guilty everytime I eat something.

This is not to say that I am depressed about myself or anything. In fact, recently I have been super happy with where I am at. I love myself ( in a non-conceitful way) and have accepted myself. I just think this is the next step to me feeling even better about myself.

Well that's the business! I am now going to reveal the playlist of the week! What?! I don't have a playlist of the week? Well, then. I better start one!!! So last week, I was really in to Adele. I listened to that playlist while taking care of animals and such at Lisa's. Now, after listening to the mixed CD Tory gave me last Spring, I have been listening to Lady Gaga and some other popular stuff. So enjoy some heathenistic, worldly, unmoral yet completely infectious and catchy music!!!

I want to be told what to do at this point.

I kind of wish there was a textbook on dating and relationships. I might be able to actually get something done. You know? To get somewhere. I always open my mouth and tick the person off when all I have are good intentions. I usually just want some open and honest communication. You always are really good at listening, and I want to be there for you.

If you have any advice, please let me know.
You'd think I would learn from my own mistakes....

textbook buy back? I think yes!

So, at this point in time, I am trying to raise funds to pay for the sales tax on my new car, which is around the $400 region. I have 30 days from the date of purchase to pay this, which will be about 26 days now. As anyone that is remotely aquainted with me will know, I am terrible at saving. Terrible. So, in order to get a few extra bucks I thought about selling my text books from last year. Initially I was going to save the for future reference, but I thought, hey, I need money. Well, I tried online and they were going to give me $91 dollars at Text Bucks for my books. Cool! That's almost a fourth of what I need! So I went over to sell them and one book they wouldn't take cause it had water damage and writing in pen (understandable) and another book had water damage. Well they were both pretty expensive books. The latter, a hardback, is in actually good condition. I was surpised they wouldn't take it, because the "liquid damage" doesn't affect the text in any way. Oh well. I might try to sell it online. So now I am $45 short of the savings I was going to have. Poop.

So, I have a ton to do on Monday to get ready for school to start. First, I have to get a new parking permit sticker for my new car!!! :)

Today, Karasyn and I are going to some of our usual haunts, Neighborhood and Red Velvet and then continuing our HP marathon!! After that? I have laundry :( and 4 hours worth of Days of Our Lives to catch up on!

Good luck book shopping this fall!

Funky Flashback

It's been a while since I have posted one of these, and since tonight I am making a DVD I thought it would be the perfect opportunity!

Here are some pics I'm loving from this particular set of photos!

Looks like a scene from Andy Griffith

What a great hair-do!

So I will be back later for another new (school) year resolution! Also, with pictures of my new car!!! :D

Have a great Tuesday!
