I just spent four and a half hours on a 3-4 page paper for my contemporary fiction class. I worked so HARD on this one. I tried to watch my organization, my word use, grammar...I even spell checked it, grammar checked it...I tried to be concise and to the point. Seriously, if I don't get a better grade on this paper from Dr.Walhout I am marching ( Read more... )

My school life feels like my icon - books being stuffed into my face. I wish I could in a word, SPIT them out.

Much of the stuff I am required to read just lets me know that in the future, I won't have to read literature like it. I'll basically know the good lit from the bad lit. I hate to say that about my quite expensive education but there it is.

So last night was ok. Paul came over and we were both kinda tired and worn out, so we just cuddled on the couch and watched Sleepy Hollow.

Then his friend Justin called and wanted to hang out. So of course I can't be bitchy and say, "no, I just want to hang out with you," because guys hate it when you do that. They really do, even though last night ( Read more... )

I'm so EXCITED for my Halloween Party- like totally STOKED. My mom and I went to Michael's today and got some stuff so the house is going to look SUPER COOL.

I'm going to be a witch for Halloween as per usual since I need to get as much use out of that witch hat I bought a few years ago...

Also, movies that I have we can possibly watch: Sleepy Hollow ( Read more... )

Update:

Stressed beyond belief about school, going to have to have a talk with one of the teachers...

Just finished another essay, which I didn't mind writing because it was my own personal opinion, so it was actually a fun play on words and all that jazz. Now that it is out of the way, I feel better about school and I also read for two hours this ( Read more... )

Picture this:

Going over to boyfriend's house on a lazy Sunday afternoon, find him making bread, and then he gets the idea to go get a pumpkin and make food out of it. Brilliant. So the rest of the day is him and I baking pumpkin seeds, making pumpkin soup(IT WAS DELICIOUS) and pumpkin pie! Then we wanted ice cream so we got pumpkin ice cream to go ( Read more... )

Next Monday I have to present to my capstone class two of my favorite quotes from literature. One I already have nailed to the floor already, a quote that I have on my facebook page from the novel Christy, which I read over the summer and loved. The second one however, I am having more trouble finding, since I love so MANY books. So I was just ( Read more... )

Just had an amazing conversation with my boyfriend. He's feeling better about things, I'm feeling better about things.

God's in His Heaven, All's Right With the World.

Or at least, my world. And that's ok. For Starters.

To commemorate me actually accepting it's the Autumn season, I am typing in orange font. Because its pretty but it will probably look atrocious on my webpage but I don't care. Its the thought that counts.

I ate pumpkin pie today with Meg and had a pumpkin spice latte too. Its officially fall for me. Actually, it was the other day when Paul and I ( Read more... )

To be honest with you, this last month has been a total roller coaster of emotion. I think I am exhausted from it. My brain and body just turned off today and I've been "driving" with the cruise control so I don't have to think about the past few days or the past month. So much has happened- good and bad, and its a bit overwhelming and my whole ( Read more... )
