| I'm graduating in exactly a week.
OHHHH TIME, YOU'VE FLOWN SO FAST!!!
I'm going to miss everything about being an undergrad. Being in college has been so much fun with so many ups and downs.
My love, my roommate, my suitemates, all my friends, my professors who had faith that I would pull through at the end, the deans, random adventures, explorative car rides, hide outs, everyone's quirks, freaking out about classes, dropping classes whenever I can, happy sunny days of Nashville, running around Centennial, sun bathing, the munchie mart, las paletas, squirrels with weird tails, running through sprinklers, making a 102 on my last final of my undergraduate career, the pool, the rooftops of buildings, falling on the uneven paths of highland quad and kissam quad, 8am classes over at Peabody, skipping class to play or eat, getting to know different people, bowling and sucking at it, baking cookies in the morning, frolicking and feeding the ducks and pigeons.
Cheers to a great 4 years. | | |
| My latest obsession: POETRY.
I've been writing lots of it and even got my 1st collection of poetry bound and designed a cover for it. I got it bound at Kinko's and it really looks like a published thing. It's pretty sweet. I'm satisfied.
I also made a 102 on a final that I took yesterday. This year has been my first year of college that I've figured out how to do well. Or I've just turned into a little over-achiever. My sister tells me I'm becoming more and more like her and starting to care a lot about everything. Even last year I really didn't care about much in life. Now -- I care.
I guess I've started to grow up.
Life's been great none-the-less. My goal next year is to run the half-marathon. Right now I can run about 6 miles at a time. I love and hate to run. | | |
| This weekend has been unreal. This coming week is the week before Spring Break and so, yeah, loads of exams and papers due...but this weekend - probably the most memorable weekend in my college career. An all time super weekend, you know?
It started off early Friday afternoon with the Vandy baseball game. I freaking LOVEEEE watching our #1 Vanderbilt Baseball Team kick ass!!! I know a couple of the boys on the team so it's always makes it more fun to watch 'em. But at this game in front of where I was sitting, the football team took over the front rows of the stadium. They are ridiculous boys!!! The comments they would yell out to the other team was hysterical and I got to see the Pitt's pitcher "BALK." I hear this is really rare.
Anyways here's a quick run down of this past weekend (only the highlights):
Matt and I picked up the most delicious pad-thai ever,
I had 60 seconds of fame at the women's basketball game when the swim team was introduced during half time and we got to stand on the court and wave,
Liz and I went to a dj spin-out of Indie music at the End and we danced all by ourselves all night long (it was amazing) our dance moves are hottttt,
Beer pong,
I had a swim team recruit stay with me (Iaminlovewithher!!!!!),
DanceMarathon (free food and endless coke's; we raised over $100,000)
Qdoba for Saturday brunch,
A walk in the rain to steal the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal,
J&J's Coffee (always delicious and heart warming),
At about 3pm on Saturday - our night began,
Matt and Cristian booted at about 10 and 9pm respectively,
Cristian booted all over the hall way, all over the bathroom, everywhere,
Maybe an hour later - Matt booted in the bathroom and in the trashcan in his room,
Sunday brunch @ Rand with Ilya, Reid and Liz,
Vandy beats UK by 2!!!!!! (men's basketball ranked #2 in the SEC, hell yeah!),
Liz and I have been having study sessions with breaks today,
And to end our night we plan on going back to the boys suite for some fun.
Life is awesome. | | |
| Happy Friday!!!!
It's time for another update.
This past week: FREAKIN' stressful as ever. I had a major stomach ache attack, I think on Tuesday night. I thought I was going to DIE. Seriously, it was so scary. I think I need to stay away from grease-y foods all together. Or maybe I have some stomach cancer and am going to die like in those Korean dramas, you know? I don't like Korean dramas very much.
I've decided that I'm going to do some work on Fridays, otherwise I'll just be sad on Sunday nights. So, my roommate and I had an intense study session in our room this morning. It was for almost an hour. Hahaha, Liz, is awesome and I love living with her. She's crazy, but so am I, so why not live together.
Anyways, I edited my new years resolutions. I like it. Maybe I'll be able to keep two of them.
This weekend:
-Anchor Splash for Delta Gamma's benefit
-Swimmmmmmmmmmm
-Party hard only one night of the weekend
-Study
-Work on my art show | | |
| I'm in a poetry workshop class and it's hard. But I love it. My professor has the biggest over-bite I've ever seen. Or maybe he just has a huge mouth..
I'm in Drawing II and I love the class, but I have to work my butt off. My roommate and I are both taking this class together and it makes me excited to get to walk to class and back with her.
I'm in a Corporate Social Responsibility class and I love it. The people in my class are awesome (super cool kids)! But, it takes me so much longer than everyone else to realllly understand everything. Sucks.
I'm in two HR classes and they're really starting to make sense and come together, but I get so much reading and so many quizes and exams in these classes that I really have to stay on the balls of my feet. Darnnnn. No slacking??
I'm in Japenese Art and it's an alright class. But, I dislike the way my professor lectures. She flutters her eyelids like it's her job. I can't look at her because it bothers me so much.
This semester is not easy. It's just okay, but why is senior year not as fun as my three previous years?!?!
I don't know what I'm going to do next year and it's an awful awful feeling. Someone give me a fabulous job, please. I promise I'm extremely competent and a pretty fast learner. And I've got great interpersonal skills.
Currently my options:
-Americorps
-Teach in NYC
-Grad school
-Get a job somewhere
Thanks.
PS I straightened my hair with my roommates hair straightener yesterday and today. My hair is silky straight now. AND there's snow on the ground - everywhere!
My plans for the weekend:
-Posse retreat
-ADPi 80's Party
-Jessie's awesome party
-Leah's 22nd bday celebration
-Homework..
-Maybe a trip to Bowling Green, KY | | |
