This whole week (weather wise) has been absolutely beautiful. Spring is definitely my favorite season because I just keep getting happier and happier as the weather warms up. I LOVE warm weather and I can't wait for summertime already. Just the hints of warm (I think it got up to 45 here one day) get's me very excited ( Read more... )

Ugh, I have absolutely no motivation to do anything at all, especially write a paper or read a couple of chapters in shit I don't care about. My big english paper this semester is actually going to be something I will enjoy writing though. We are studying ethnographies and I'm concentraiting on N. Michigan Avenue (for all you people who don't like ( Read more... )

Just a quick update before bed. I don't know how many people I've mentioned this to so far, but I finally got word that I'm going to be an RA on campus next year. This is exciting because I get free room and board in downtown Chicago, plus $300 a month as a paycheck. I called my mom to tell her and she mentioned how happy she was for me. I guess ( Read more... )

So yesterday was my travel day, I took part in three different time zones, and traveled by cab, plane, train, and foot all in one day. Amazing isn't it ( Read more... )

Every morning when I wake up I have to remind myself where exactly I am. I dream that I'm back in Chicago and then wake up to the fabulous surprise that I'm in the lovely state of California. The days here seem to take forever, but then at the end of the day it feels like the day has flown by. That totally does not make sense, but it's how I feel ( Read more... )

So today was my first day in the lovely city of Los Angeles. We flew in last night but really didn't get the chance to experience much since my father and I were extremely tired from the time change and just from flying in general. Today I had a meeting at 8am for all volunteers so we got our assignments for the convention. I ended up being one of ( Read more... )

Yay, so no roommate at the moment and I'm failing to use this time to my advantage and catch up on some homework, oh well. I pretty much just suck with time management. Guess that's a skill that will just develop as I get older (hopefully ( Read more... )

So I made it through my first week of second semester. I have 18 credit hours this semester so it's pretty much going to be packed and busy. Strangely enough all of my teachers are male and 2 of them swear like sailors - I like I'm going to like their classes the most ( Read more... )

So I move back to Chicago in 2 days, and I must say I am very excited. All my friends have gone back to college and now I'm just sitting with staring at the walls killing time. 5 weeks really is to much off of school. My last day at Hollister was Saturday and I was very very excited ( Read more... )

I offically have one week left before I move back to Chicago. I visited for an hour the day after Christmas and was thinking I don't want to be here. Now I can't wait to move back. I've had a nice break, seen almost all of my friends, and hung out with my family. I'm ready to go back to living on my own again and getting away from Fort Wayne ( Read more... )
