snow!!!

it snowed last night! hooray! it's funny though. like yeah it snowed maybe 6 inches or so, which yes is a lot at once. but it was done snowing by like 10 pm or so. which in minnesota, would be plenty of time for the roads to be nicely plowed by morning. but no. not in ohio. i think every single school around was cancelled for the day. even the air force base had a 2 hour delay. and when i went out at like 11 this morning, some roads were decent. but others were still full of snow and you could only go like 30 mph. and it's not like they were just side streeets to nowhere - they were pretty main roads. plus they don't know how to sand here. i think i saw one road that was sanded. everywhere else had no sand. which was not cool when i'm exiting off of the freeway and the exit ramp is plowed yes, sanded no, and quite slick. (you know how when people drive on snow before it's plowed it makes a nice slippery crusty layer of snow that the plows typically don't get, but then it's slippery to drive on) so yeah. lots of fun. but anyways. i'm just so excited we actually have snow. hooray! although it will probably be melted within a week or so i'd bet. who knows though.
so i spent the afternoon putting plastic on our windows. our windows suck because they are impossible to shut correctly so they are never quite sealed. so i'm hoping the plastic will help with drafts and the gas bill over the winter....

let's see. our whole christmas plans have changed now. adam got called to get his lasik surgery done on december 21st. he'd have to stay with in like 2 hours of here for 7 days afterwards in case anything happened and for a follow up appt. so that means he can't go to minnesota for christmas. but if he didn' ttake it, he'd be put on the bottom of the list and have to wait another 2-8 months. which he really didn't want, since he's been waiting since july already. so now. he's having the surgery the 21st. we're going to his parents (in indiana) the 22nd. then i'm flying out of indianoplis to minneapolis on the 23rd. (which i really hope i make, because i have a layover in chicago, and the flight from there to msp was to the point where you can't reserve your seat, so i hope i'm not bumped or anything). so adam will stay with his parents then come back to ohio for his follow up on the 27th, go back to his parents. and then drive up to minnesota on the 28th. so pretty crappy that we won't be spending our first christmas togehter. but it's ok. plus then we're going to stay up there until the 5th i think, so i'll get some extra time at home now.

well i think i'm getting hungry and adam should be home soon, so i'm going to go start dinner. tacos! YUM YUM YUM!

what's new in the life of me....

so i don't seem to be very good at keeping up with this. but hey i try. and when i do, they're typically pretty darn long. not that too many people read it, but whatever. so what's new with me. not a whole lot really. well some stuff i guess. but yeah.
so let's see. for thanksgiving, we went to adam's parents for the weekend. that was nice to get away for a long weekend and eat lots of good food. adam, erin and i went and saw RENT. it was good! it was nice because i had seen the play a few years ago, but didn't really know the story and musicals can be kind of hard to understand and follow. so this helped me understand the story much better. and i love the music!
the monday before that, i spent the majority of the afternoon/evening in the e.r. lots of fun. i went in for chest tightness and breathing discomfort. so long story short, after some testing eventually they thought i might have a clot, but weren't sure so had to more testing, and eventually decided there wasn't a clot. so yeah. it was kind of a freaky day. and of course i had trouble sleeping like the whole week after that because i was so nervous about it. unfortunately they never figured out what was causing the tightness and wierd breathing. so that didn't help any. but they did have me follow up with my dr. and he had me go in for an asthma test, even though he doesn't really think that i have asthma. so i did that test, but have to go back in a week or so for the results. so yippee. more waiting.
ummm. so adam and i finally booked our honeymoon. i'm super excited. we're going on an eastern carribbean cruise! should be a lot of fun. we were going to go to sandals in st. lucia, but we eventually decided to do the cruise, cuz it's less than 1/2 the price and then we'll get to see 3 islands instead of 1. so that should be awesome. we're going the last saturday of february. a great time to escape the winter.
so i really have no time sequence to this blog, because i keep jumping back and forth in time. the weekend before thanksgiving - saturday we went to louisille, kentucky, which is only about 2.5 hours from us. the st. scholastica women's cc team was running at nationals, so we went to support them. that was fun to see a lot of people, even though i really didn't know most of them very well, since they were all younger. but i was surprised how hard it was to say goodbye to them all, despite not knowing them well.
that night we went and saw the new harry potter movie. it was good, but it did leave out a lot of stuff from the book. a lot of which i though was fairly crucial to the story. i know you can only do so much in a movie, but still. adam was pretty confused by a lot of things that happened and felt that things were missing. so unless you've read the books, it'd be somewhat hard to follow the whole story.
other than that, not a whole lot else new. i got heather and carly's wedding scrapbooks done - well almost, i think i want to add a few more pics, so i need to get them printed. but now i've finally started working on my own wedding scrapbook! which i'm super excited about. that's been about all i've been doing the past week. i'm trying to get it all done by the time we go to minnesota for christmas. which at the rate i'm going, i think will be no problem. although it's tricky cuz it's a hallmark album that i got as a gift and the pages are like 9.25 by 12 inches (standard scrapbooking is 12x12) so i've ahd some difficulty squeezing everything i want to on to the pages and have had to toss some pics out. but it's ok. i think it will look good in the end.
well. i think that's really about all that's new in the life of me. so ttfn!

less than 3 weeks till i'm in minnesota!!! hooray!

jobs....and colorado

so i just seem to have to worst luck finding a job. the whole dental office thing didn't work out. but, i think i've got a new job lined up that will work out super. a guy adam knows from work (eric) was recently transferred here. so he had already asked adam if i'd be interested in babysitting their 1 year old occassionally so he and his wife could go out. so we said, that'd be great. and then the other day, eric asked adam if i'd be interested in a regular babysitting job, because his wife got offered a job. so it would be like 20-30 hours a week, probably 3 days a week. his wife will be working from their home office, so she'll still be around, so i'd just have to watch after the boy all day while she works. and i guess she wants to pay me comparatively to what i'd make subbing, since they'd be taking me away from that 3 days a week, sothat's awesome! so i'd still be available the other 2 days to sub if i'm called or whatever. so i'm excited for this. it's not a total fur sure yet. we're going over there saturday night to meet them and talk about everything. so hopefully that works out, cuz it would be absolutely perfect.
so i finally figured out how to access the subbing system online, but unfortunately there are no jobs listed that are available, so that sucks. i guess i'll have to check back frequently, and have to just take the jobs when they call at 5:45 a.m. looking for a sub (which i don't think i'm going to like because it's most likely a teacher dcalling in sick for the day and so they wouldn't have left out supplies and lesson plans for me - ahhh!) they've called a few timnes so far, but i havn'et taken any jobs, because we were out of town for a long weekend, and i had a lot to get ready before that, and errands to run when we got back. so who knows. i'm also super nervous about it. eeks.
colorado was a lot of fun. i hung out with jenean about half the time we were there. it was great to get to see her. we flew in thurs night and i got dropped off at jenean's place. spent the night with her, then fri we drove down to colorado springs, had lunch, and went to garden of the gods. then went to the hotel and out to eat with adam's family. then she had to leave, so that sucked. saturday morning was the wedding. it was a full mass, but seemed very slow and long. and the priest was not a good speaker. then the reception was about a 15 minute driveaway (to the foot of pike's peak) at a little hotel. the food was ok. (not what you'd expect for total costs of the wedding being about $65/person). the dj was horrible. played the music way too loud for such a small room and crappy songs. an dhe'd just cut songs off in the middle and be like, that's enough of that song. and he had never played the chicken dance. and it was a crappy chicken dance. like a techno remix. awful. half the people there didn't even know how to do the chicken dance. i was like, come on! that night, we went to his aunt and uncle's house in colorado springs for a little while to visit with people. then headed back to the hotel to pack up and get to bed. 4 hours later, we had to get up to drive back to the denver airport. so that sucked. we were super early and easily could have slept another hour, but oh well. from denver, we flew to minneapolis, so my mom and carly came down and adam and went to the mall of america with them. we were going to go to a restaurant there for breakfast, but it is no longer there, so we just went to cinnabon since it was the only thing open. (which was fine by me, i wasn't super hungry anyways). heather came and met us at cinnabon, so that was cool to see her too. so i got to spend a couple hours with them, then we had to get back to the airport to fly back to indianapolis. when we finally got back, adam's parents wanted to take us out to some ribs restaurant, so we went out again. (personally i was not really hungry and was tired of eating out all weekend, plus we had a 2+ hour drive back to our house, so i really just wanted to get going) but we went out, and it was ok food. not the best ribs i've ever had. oh well though. finally got home a little after 8 and pretty much went straight to bed. it was a fast, but good weekend.
i should really write more often in here, so that when i do actually write, it isn't so long. but whatever i guess.

ohio

so at the moment, i'm really not liking ohio. i know a lot of it is because i am so homesick. but i don't know. i'm just sick of it. i have no friends here. the job i just started sucks.
my sister and cousin, lindsey, came out this past weekend and surprised me with a visit. they got here thursday night around 10:30. and just my luck i had to start my new job friday morning, but luckily only had to work until noon. then the rest of the day, i showed them around and stuff and then we all went out to dinner. saturday we made a big breakfast then went to this little hippie town nearby and looked around the shops. then we picked up subway and went to a state park nearby and had a picnic and did some hiking. that was fun. the leaves are just startign to turn colors so it was really pretty. then we came back and adam went to work on his airplane and the 3 of us went to the mall. we all go a few things that i dont' think any of us could afford, but oh well. then we came back and made chocolate chip cookies and homemade pizza and cheesy bread and watched napolean dynamite. on sunday we made breakfast and looked at some wedding pics, and then basically had to go bring them to the airport. so that sucked. their visit was way too short, but what can you do. they both couldn't miss classes. carly read their tickets wrong too, so we got there an hour early, but oh well. we just hung out for awhile before they went in. so then they left and we drove back home. and i spent the rest of the day miserable and crying. it's just so hard. i think it's good that it was a surprise that they were coming because it would have been even harder when they left, cuz i would have been so excited for their visit. and i'm glad they came. it just made me miss my family and home even more. but hopefully i'll be working more now, and that will help. i hope.
as far as my new job... not so cool. it's a very old dental office, and to me old just seems dirty. especially in medical type buidlings. i was hired as a receptionist and was told that would be what i mainly did, but would have some patient contact and do some work with them too. ok.. fine. i was thinking maybe like showing them to their room. but no. showing them to their room. taking their x-rays out and developing. and i've heard that i will be flossing teeth and cleaning and stuff. which i just don't think i can handle. plus i was looking up the state laws and i feel like it's kind of borderline what i would be asked to do. dr. assistants can have on the job training and do certain things. but hygenists must have schooling and a state license and are the only ones who can do certain things. and there are no hygenists in the office. and i feel like the duties i am supposed to do would be borderline crossing into hygenist duties. which i really do not feel comfortable with, especially with the legal standpoint. plus the old, unorganized office just grosses me out. so do other people's mouths.
so i'm supposed to work this afternoon. and i still haven't decided what to do. i really want to quit. i know i shouldn't. but it's my 2nd day in a 6 week trial. so i can quit at anytime with no hard feelings. so i don't know. i just don't feel comfrotable there. and the same day i got hired, i got my subbing license in the mail and a letter saying i will be in the subbing system of a district at the end of this week. so, now that that came through, i'm not so worried about $ and stuff. i know subbing will probably be somewhat irregular, but at least i'm trained for that and feel comfortable with it. and in the long run, that's the experience i need. a future teaching job is not going to be influenced by my job in a dental office. so i think i really need to quit at the dental office and be more available for subbing. if after awhile, we decide that subbing isn't regular enough, i can then pursue other options that i feel comfortable with. i think i'll work my few hours this afternoon, and then call it quits. unless something drastic has changed. blah. i hate ohio. i know the job opportunities would probably not be any better in minnesota, but i'd be able to sub anywhere, and would have been able to sub since september, bringing in some money. plus i'd have my friends and family around and wouldn't be going so stircrazy sitting at home waiting for jobs and paperwork to come through.
other cool news is that my cousin is pregnant! i'm so excited. it's still early, so hopefully all goes well. and they'll have a baby in june! that will be so cool. i think i'm going to start an afghan for them soon.

my exciting life

so yeah. not much going on. which would be why i haven't posted in a month. i tried to post something the other day, but it wouldn't go, which made me mad, cuz it was pretty long. but oh well. it was just a dumb story about our golf outing this past weekend. so let's see. i've beenreally in to baking homemade bread and my mom got me a panera bread cookbook, so i've been trying some bread recipes from there. the first ones turned out pretty good, but now i'm attempting to make sourdough bread, which is a more complicated, time consuming recipe. so i made the starter last week and tried to make a batch of bread yesterday, but no success. it was very dense. i'm not quite sure what was wrong. you are supposed to measure by weight, and i have a scale, but when i measure the weight it is totally off of what the recipe says for the cup measurement. so i've been kind of compromising between the 2. probably a bad idea. and i'm not quite sure what kind of whole wheat flour i bought, but i don't think it's right. unfortunately it was the only stuff i could find at the commissarry (base grocery store). so who knows. maybe i'll try another batch later today or towmorrow. we'll see. i'm kind of discouraged about it right now.
last night i kept having the most bizarre dreams. it was quite annoying. it was sort of like i was reliving my whole day yesterday. so i ended up not sleeping too well (not that my day was bad, the dreams were just keeping me from sleeping really well) and i ended up sleeping until 10:30. holy crap. i hate sleeping that late. it messes up the whole day. not that i have anything pertinent to do. but still.
i applied for a few jobs last week, so hopefully i hear somtehing about those soon. i'm getting very bored around the house and need something to do. i don't let myself go out very often, because i always spend too much money. but anyways. i should get off the computer and go do something a little more productive.

golf

so we went golfing today. i was really quite bad. i had like maybe 5 decent shots. the other like 70 shots were horrible. obviously. it was only a 9 hole course. so 70 shots is not so good. actually i don't think it was quite that bad, but still. i just could not hit decently. on like half the holes, i would get it up to the green in like 2 shots, but then it took me like 5 putts to get in. i am not good at putting. i am not good with irons. or the sand wedge. for some reason, i had some great shots with my pitching wedge and some decent drives. but everything else was horrible. but anyways. we went with nick and kristen (adam's friends from purdue) and when we were done, nick realized he lost his car key. i guess he had it in his pocket, but at some point on the course, took his wallet out to put in his golf bag, and the key must have fallen out. unfortunately it's his only car key - he was only given one key when he got the car. and his house keys and kristen's car keys and purse were locked in his car. so we drove over (there are roads everywhere around this course - you have to cross a road after almost every hole) to a couple of the holes where he thought it might have been, and we looked around, but no success. so we were on the air force base so we went to the main entrance to see if they could call base security to open nick's car, but they won't do it becasue of liablility issues. so that sucked. so we ended up driving back to nick's apartment because he had the keyless entry remote in his apartment. but wait - the apt keys were locked in the car. but luckily nick lives on the 2nd floor and has a deck and just happens to leave his patio door unlocked. so adam gave nick a boost up to the deck - which was really quite high - and somehow nick climbed up and got in to his apt and got his remote. so then we drove back to the base and got their keys and stuff out of the car and then drove them back to nick's place. so we spent like an hour running around trying to find a key and figuring out what to do about it. quite an interesting night. needless to say, nick is quite perturbed (however you spell that). all in all i think our golf outing took about 4 hours - about twice as long as it should...


yes, my life is really thrilling

so it's been awhile....

so yeah, it's been a few months since i've been on here. but i was just looking at gina's and thought i should add to mine quick. so since i've written, i got married on june 18th, and moved to ohio. it's been interesting. i worked at target for like a week - didn't go so well with 4 a.m. shifts and over a month from when i was hired to when i actually started working. so yeah, i ended up quitting that. now i've applied to sub in one of the local districts. but i had to get fingerprinted, and now they have 2 background checks to do, so it will probably be a few months before i can start. so that kind of sucks. should have looked in to that and gottne started with everything a lot sooner. oh well. i'm not minding just being around the house for the most part. there's always tons to do. we are still tryinig to get all the little things situated. but we're almost there. i've also been scrapbooking quite a bit. i've been working on a book for my sister, and now that we finally got our wedding pics, i'm starting some for my bridesmaids. so that's been fun. i'm excited to get those done though, so i can start my own. i haven't really worked on anything for me in a few months. oh well though, these other ones have been fun. so yeah. not a whole lot else going on. we went to a wedding this past few weekends - one of adam's coworkers. it was different - it was at the officer's club on base. it was nice, but kind of slow paced. and it was wierd, because the ceremony and reception were both at the same place, so after the ceremony, everyone went to the othe rroom and they started serving salads and things, but the wedding party was out doing pictures. so i felt kind of wierd eating, when the wedding party wasn't even there. but oh well, i guess that must have been what they wanted. we were going to go camping this coming weekend, but dedided we should just stick around and get things finished around the house, and get our garage organized. but the next weekend is labor day, so we'll be going to adam's parents for a long weekend. should be fun. and since it is a lot warmer down here, we'll be able to camp in to the fall a lot longer. so that's cool. but anyways, i should probably get going. more later perhaps.

done!!!

whoo hoo!!!!! i am done with college! well just gotta get through graduation on sunday, but other than that, i'm done!!! YAY!!!! need to finish packing today. going home tomorrow, then back up on sunday for graduation and to get the rest of my stuff. can't believe i'm done. crazy man.

last day...

so today was my last day student teaching. the day totally flew by. it was crazy. i had to correct spelling tests and read their journal entries, so that took up most of my morning. their journal entry today was about me. they had to write about the time while i was there. so it was fun to read all of those. i made copies of them to keep for myself - some were absolutely hilarious. then in the afternoon we watched a movie and then had a little party. i made them cupcakes and wrote them a little note and gave them some candy and a pencil. so they had fun. and of course i started crying as i was reading the note to tehm. so yeah. it was a sad day. but it was fun. a lot of them made me cards and stuff too. and then the whole class made me a card and mrs. carlson got me a book of fun classroom activities/projects so that was cool. i got her some dark chocolates and a gift certificate to sammy's pizza, which is her favorite. so that was cool. but now i'm off to johny holm dance so more later.

friday night

well it's friday night. no big plans. kinda nice. down to one week left of studetn teaching. getting kinda sad about that. but very excited to just be done with school. i got an email from our dj service yesterday and need to get some work done on that this weekend, should be kind of exciting. too bad adam is out of town for the weekend and not available to help me. well i guess too bad for him if there ends up being lots of country music played. ha ha. this weekend begins mayfest, so i will be playing mayball (softball) on sunday beginning at 9 am. hopefully we'll play throughout the day. it wouodl be fun to win and get to keep playing. and we better win the first game, cuz it's against a bunch of freshmen i hear. also need to really work on my portfolio. but we'll see about that....
i'm excited, we've been getting quite a few responses already for the wedding - most people are able to come (so far only 6 people are unable to come), so hopefully we get a few more nos back because we are definitely over on our numbers. but i'm sure it'll all work out jjust fine. i've been calling home everyday just to see who's responded so far. we've actually got about 1/5 of our responses back already, so that's good.
well not much else going on, so i spose i should get home and maybe catch up on some csi and er and do some scrapbooking. whoo hoo!

la la la

so yeah. it's friday. my spring break is almost over. sad. it flew by. i went to adam's sat-wed. it was a lot of fun. i'm super excited to move in to our new place. we did some shopping and bought some necessities for the house (like handtowels for the bathroom, because he had zero!). we also bought a charcoal grill and patio furniture. so that was cool. we grilled hamburgers and ate out on the patio on tuesday night. i also got some strawberry plants and potted them, so i hope they grow! and i hope he takes care of them for the next 2 months.

yesterday was a busy day. lots of errands and wedding plans. finalized flower stuff with my aunt. stuffed all the invitations - they'll be going out monday or tuesday. yay! i'm so excited. today, i have a few errands i need to run, but unfortunately my car is in the shop. just a tune up and new brakes, but it was supposed to be done yesterday. so hopefully it's done early enough today, because i need to head up to duluth today, adn i'd like to leave somewhat early to beat traffic. eeks. so i suppose i should probably get busy pretty soon, so that when my car is ready, i'm ready too. but anyways.

this weekend should be fun. my friends are throwing me a shower at school. it will be funm and interesting to see people. haven't seen a lot of them in quite a while. i also need to do some lesson planning and hopefully some work on my portfolio. and i forgot that my prof is coming to observe me monday afternoon, so of course i didn't bring anything home to do alesson plan for that. so not sure what i'm going to do. hopefully i'll be able to work on something quick over lunch on monday. eeks.

wow

so yeah, it's been a pretty hectic past few weeks. teach teach teach. that's about it. but now i'm off for spring break for a week! woo hoo! i'm home for tonight, then i fly out tomorrow to go to see adam and our new place! i'm super excited. not a whole lot planned for while i'm there, but i'm sure we'll go look at the base and explore the area. so should be fun. then i come home wednesday and who knows from there. i'll only be home until friday afternoon/early evening. and i have a lot of wedding stuff to get done. i think i've decided to get a veil, so have to go order that. have to stuff invites and put postage on envelopes and get them in the mail. have to finalize music choices. have to meet with my aunt about flowers. and whatever else comes up. so this will be a busy, quick week. luckily only 3 more weeks to go of teaching after that. and only one of those will be completely full time, then i back off. which will be kidn of sad too. but i'm just ready to graduate right now. but yeah, have lots to get done tonight, since i leave early tomorrow.

sad news....

so we've always known that lucy's (our dog) back legs are probably not the greatest. but this week, i guess my dad took her in to the vet and her knees are crap and her hip is horrible. she will never be able to be a hunter, because she just can't handle it. i guess that she could have surgery for her knees, but it'd be a lot of $ and who knows how much good it would do. and i guess that nothing can be done about her hips. and because of how bad they are, they vet said she should never have puppies. which is sad, because we were going to have her have puppies. i just feel so bad for her, she's such a great dog. she doesn't seem to have much pain now, but i think she does get sore after lots of running. so she'll have limited hunting time. and i guess it will only get worse for her. it's just so sad. i seriously cried after i found out.

so...

so... nothing really new going on. boring life. my roommate is gone for the week, so it's very quiet at my apartment and i've got my scrapbooking stuff spread out all over the living room. hee hee. student teaching si going well. i'm pretty much teaching full time. my teacher is going to have me do absolutely everything next week - teach, correct, and all that stuff. so we'll see how that goes. she also said she'll be out of the room most of the time, so that will be good for me too i think. she tends to interrupt occasionally, which is fine, but i need to learn too. so yeah. who k nows. but anyways, i better get back to my place to start getting some stuff ready for dinner. so if any one actually reads this, i would love some comments or emails!

eeks!

so tonight, during student teaching seminar, we had a person from career services come and talk to us. for an hour and a half. whoo hoo. she told us all about interviews and a job fair and resumes and all that fun stuff. and then, not only do we have to create a resume, we have to create a credential file. plus our portfolio and possibly an e-portfolio. as if i don't have enough going on. yes, i knew about the resume and portfolio. but the credential file? great. not taht it's all that difficult. just need to get like my transcript and copies of licensure info once i get it, and stuff like that. it's just a pain in the butt, because this school like shuts down at 4:00 every day, and oh guess what - i have to be at my school 20+ minutes away until at least 3:30. so yeah, doesn't really give me a lot of time to get anything done here. blah! well i need to go home and have some dinner and unwind.

so it's sunday. not much going on. it's my roommate's birthday next weekend and i'm not sure what to get her. i had one idea, but it's at michael's and i'd like to use a coupon on it, but of course there is not even a michael's ad this week, much less a coupon. so i don't know what to do. if any one has any good present suggestions, let me know! i did some scrapbooking yesterday - worked on some of my florida pictures, but of course i only have like half the pictures here that i'd like to use. so now i'm stuck and have to wait until i get the rest of the pictures and who konws when that will be. oh well i guess. i'm kind of into spontaneous scrapbooking - i get bored with a subject quickly and need to move on to a new one. which is fine i guess. i'm just going to have like 20 projects in progress by the time i get anywhere with any of them. it doesn't help that half my pictures are really at home and not with me here. but anyways. today i have some errands to run and then i really really really need to get working on my music selections for the wedding ceremony. i need to get my contract in to chad. yikes. i'm so indecisive. maybe i will just send in the contract and say i'm still working on music selections. but anyways, i better go get started on my day.

it's friday!!!!

whoo hoo!!!! finally friday! going to see The Wedding Date tonight with beth and then she's sleeping over - should be fun! hangin out with Eliza Big Head! all i have to do this weekend is a little lesson planning, other than that, i have nothing. nadda. zip. zero. and it's GREAT! although i'm sure i'll stay plenty busy. but anyways. it's time to start the weekend. which means i need to leave the ocmputer lab. ttfn

so tired...

so it's thursday. weeks gone pretty quick. today the teacher of my class was gone and we had a sub, so i was in charge all day. chaos. the kids just seem sooooo incredibly loud this week. they just had last week off, they're supposed to be nice and mellow and ready to work this week. not. we have a sub tomorrow morning also and we're watching a movie starting at 11, so i'm going to be the mean teacher and if kids aren't working tomorrow and don't have everything done, they are NOT watching it. and i don't care. otherwise, pretty uneventful week. i hung out with beth on tuesday night. we played some hadn and foot. i finally won a game. yay! we're getting together tomorrow too and going to a movie i think. and possibly scrapbooking on saturday. should be fun.
adam moved in to our new town house 2 days ago and is in the process of unpacking. sounds like it should be pretty nice. i'm excited to go out ther ein a month.
but i'm exhausted and watn to go home, so that's all for now i guess.

back to reality

so today i have to go back to school. not looking forward to that. i hate the drive. the weather isn't supposed to be great. and i dont' really want to drive. so yeah. what a thrilling sunday. but i am supposed to hang out with beth this afternoon, so hopefully she hasn't forgotten.
of course i didn't do any lesson planning over break, so i'll have to look over some stuff tonight also. joy. i am already counting the days till my spring break in april. well not quite, but i'm very close to.
today i woke up and was like, i shouldn't have spent so much fricken money on that makeup. and if macy's weren't so far away i would totally go return it. we'll see how i like it. can always return it next time i'm home i guess.
well, i suppose i should go load up my car so that when i decide im' ready to go, i won't have to spend 20 minutes packign. yuck. i donl't want to go back. major senioritis. the closer it gets to graduation, the less i want to be at school. oh well i guess. only like 9 weeks left. whoo hoo!

oh man

holy cow. i just bought some makeup today. spent more on one thing then i've probly spent total on makeup in my whole life. i sure hope it looks all right. she picked it out for me, and it's got a gold tint, so i hope that works and it's not too orangey-gold. i don't like that look. i should have went with the pink tint maybe. oh well i guess. we'll see how it looks on for a day or something and decide from there. only problem is that i got it at macy's which means i'd have to drive all the way back down there to exchange it. blah. i think i kinda suckered myself inot buying it, so i could get the 'free gift'. but oh well i guess. i figure if i'm gonna wear it, i may as well get good stuff that is good with acne problems and stuff.

the whole reason we were down at the moa was to do the heart walk this morning. what a zoo. i mean seriously, they said 15,000 people were there for the walk. and it was nuts. parking was hard to find, it was hard to walk anywhere. you did not want to try walking against the crowd, as some were attempting.

i was going to try to look for birthday presents for jenean and my roommate while i was there, but kept forgetting, and didn't see anything that caught my eye anyways. so now i have no idea what to do, especially for my roommate. i've got a little time for her though. so we'll see.

my sister has talked me in to making her a scrapbook for her birthday, so we went out and she bought the book. we'll see if it gets done for her birthday or not, since i'm not starting it till who knows when this summer. plus she needs to go through and get me all the pictures she wants. so we'll see. should be fun though. i think it'd be fun to make it as a gift, because they'll be like oh wow, even though i might be like oh i could have made this page so much better if i had done this or something. but whatever. i'm excited.

well not much else going on at the moment. i think we're getting ready to grill some steaks, so i better get going. yum yum.
