the simple pleasures.

So much good and bad to say... Lets start with the bad and end with the good. . .

Bad

My computer is ...broke... for lack of a better word. I can't connect to the internet, no matter how hard I try. Tech services was no help. Britany Miller might have been. She told me to take it somewhere other than SAU and have them check for Malware. Thank you B Miller.

Second. I work Monday and Friday as normal. But Saturday and Sunday as well. No life this weekend. I miss JJ Heller, and I don't get to run home to get boxes for packing. I hate working a whole weekend. Its so tiring. But at least I make some moolah...

Good

I got to go see my sister for prom this weekend. She looked gorgeous =]

I went home with Kelsey this weekend (to my house) and had a wonderful time. I got to see the people I loved and remembered how much I love and miss my family, especially my sister. And happy news...SHE'S COMING TO SPRING ARBOR FOR COLLEGE!!!!

I have wonderful roommates...and future roommates...and friends in general.
- Kels and I went to Goodwill this weekend. We bought Cougar golf clubs. Campus golf, here we come!
- We also bought Angie a game at Goodwill...Arthur goes to the Library! She loves the (children's) show Arthur (you know, the aardvark...)and she looked like a little kid at Christmas when we gave it to her. Kelsey found the game and was a genius. We played it and had a lot of fun. It produced plenty of giggles.
- We went to get coffee at 10p and ran into Emily and Britany =] Always fun times!

I also found out who the majority of my floor for next year is WAHOO!!! I'm getting super excited about it too!

That's all I have to say for now. It isn't likely that I will post any time this week...no computer, work-a-holic, and tons of photo projects...

Less depressing update

So sorry, I feel as though my last few posts have been depressing to say the least. But things are what they are and I'm just learning to take one step at a time...na na na nanana (channeling my inner jordin sparks just then). Anyway, things are stressful, but almost done, almost done, ALMOST DONE! Sad in a way, because things will be changing in a major way, but more happy than sad. Next year holds so many possibilities, and I just cannot wait. My goal is to improve myself next year, but to improve for me, and for God, not for anyone else. Hopefully around friday I'll get to find out who is on my floor for next year (returners at least, but still tentative).

Oh and a super upper UPPER...I get to go home to see my sister go to her last prom =] She's gorgeous and she made my day today, just by writing on my facebook wall. I love that kid.

On a scale of 1-10 (1 being the worst), my day has been a 4. I'm tired. There were TOO many people in the darkroom. My proof sheet came out foggy. I wanted to cry. I have to work. I still have MORE pictures due this week (which means that if all my previous pictures came out foggy, I have to quickly go take MORE.). I just want to relax.

The only good thing about today...I have great friends. Great roommates. and my first RA meeting tonight.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.....

After a really busy crappy weekend, I find out I have a photo project due tomorrow at 1:30 =( So basically I'm up at the crack of dawn finishing up a roll of pictures (probably random, crappy ones) just so I can get my assignment done. I'm so sad/upset/disheartened right now. I love this class and I feel like I'm just doing it halfway. . .

Yucky weekend...

This is my weekend:

Friday: work 4-9p
dinner 11:40p
Saturday: walk for Relay for Life 2-6a
sleep 6-1p
walk for Relay 2-2:30p
work 3-9p
Sunday: church 11-12:30p
work 2-7p
Monday: chapel 10-11a
classes 1:30-4:10p
work 5-9p


Basically. yuck. My feet hurt. I'm exhausted and I don't wanna work.

hot coffee at . . . 2:30 a.m.

So, I'm officially trying to complete my second ever all-nighter. I have so much to do, and today is Form Frenzy at our school. Form Frenzy is where everyone who is currently wanting to go on a cross cultural the following year brings all their filled out forms to a bunch of people (who aren't around until like 7 a.m.). The hectic thing is, its basically first-come, first-served. So if you're wanting a really competitive cross cultural experience, you want to be one of the first ones in line, but the building doesn't even unlock until 6 a.m. Frustrating. I want to go to Greece. Think Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. Think stunningly gorgeous. Think, these pictures...





Oh and I can't really go to bed after that because I have to shoot a whole role of motion and depth-of-field for my photography class. It has to be shot, developed, and proof sheet processed, plus an additional proof sheet for another roll. It will probably take me all day. Then class, then helping a friend with a presentation. Yay. Fun day!
