wow...i haven't posted in forever...
well, it's summmer.
I am now working at Starbucks. I freakin love it.
I got 3 A's and 2 B's this last semester.
Life is good.
And I am really happy at the moment.

I saw these and could not help but post them.




School is going well, work is going well.
I was invited to the honors convocation for sophomores (me), juniors, and seniors with 3.5's and above. So that is pretty exciting.

How cool is that.

So lately I have been having an infatuation with Tracy Chapman. I love the song fast car, and talkin' about a revolution. Her voice is the closest i have found to mine, that deep and smooth type...ah i love it.

Anyway, so last week I was sick with the flu and missed the entire week of school and work. Now I am back both and kinda feel out of my element. All of my teachers have been really understanding so at least i dont have to worry about that. I am completely caught up in spanish and sociology. I have to write a paragraph for anthropology tonight and i havent yet been to my visual arts class.

I don't know what's more tiring, having the flu or trying to catch up with school and work after having the flu.

HAHA!!

So I am sick...again...I just got over what felt like the flu a week or so ago...and now I am running a 100 degree fever. Grr...this sucks.

So here is the tattoo I just got on tuesday...I'm pretty much in love with it.

In other news, school is going well. I made an A on my first Spanish test...that blew me away...I really didn't think that I had done that well. I made a B on my Sociology test that I barely even studied for so that is good. Today I had 2 tests, one in Anthropology which I already took and am pretty sure I did very well on, and one in Art History which I am about to take in an hour, I studied pretty well for it so I think I should be ok.

Also, I think Riley's new girlfriend, Roberta, and I are becoming friends. She is really nice.

Everything in my life right now is going really well, I have a new haircut, a new tattoo, and am doing really well in school. And of course, I have amazing friends. What more could I ask for without seeming undoubtedly selfish?

So this is my new hair do. Let me know what you think.

This is possibly the cutest thing I have ever seen!!!!

I feel so lucky to have such amazing people in my life.

I have decided to greet everyday as a new possibility and a new challenge.

Ok so as all of you already know Riley and I broke up.
Well now he has a new girlfriend.
I personally feel that it is kinda messed up to start dating someone else a week and a half after we break up.
I don't dislike the girl and I don't hate riley...but I feel like he could have given me a little time to grieve.
Well...I saw her on campus today and smile at her...not a fake or envious smile...just a genuine one...she gave me the evil eye. I'm trying not to hold it against her. I mean ...maybe she thinks I hate her or something..but I don't. I know that she is with him now and that there is nothing I can do about it...nor would I want to. Deep inside I am relieved that Riley and I broke up...the relationship was causing stress for both of us and just wasn't healthy. I get that. But as I'm sure you ladies can agree...him finding someone new so fast can be a blow to one's ego.

see more puppies

this will be me tomorrow morning...
I start school tomorrow.

Well me and Riley broke up.

It sucks but it was for the best.

So my dad had thyroid surgery today...Everything went well. He has to stay overnight though...I'm sure he's not to happy about that but oh well...So yeah...I get to take care of my papa all day tomorrow like he has taken care of me all these years!!!

My Ry Bug is gone.
But I'm going out tonight...some old stomping grounds.

Wow....It's almost Christmas!!! I'm sooooo ready!

So here's the breakdown:

Communication 212-A
History 110-A
Spanish 102-B
English 201-A
Sociology 241-A

3.8 SUCCKKKAAAS!!

Snow in Lafayette, Louisiana!! Wow. This is the first time I've every seen real snow!
It's so exciting!!

I know that you all know that I DO NOT support this war. But I do however, get on my knees every night and pray for the safe (and soon) return of our troops.

It especially hits home around this time of year when you think of how many children are going to go to sleep on christmas eve without their mommy or daddy being able to tuck them into bed. I personally cannot relate to this. I have been very lucky to have two wonderful parents who were always around when i needed them. So my wish for this christmas season is not to have wonderful presents under the tree on christmas morning and not for a fabulous christmas day feast. My wish for this holiday season is that the children whose parents will not be home this year will know that no matter where their mommy or daddy is that they love them and want to be home with them.

So the holidays are upon us...

And so are FINALS!

I am so ready to be done with this semester...its kind of kicking my butt.
Im just tired of getting up and going to school...im tired of the action of doing it.

Well...winter break will be nice...hopefully we will go camping.

im posting on my sister-in-laws new mini laptop...its fabulous...i want one sooooooooo bad....omg they are fabulous.


That is all!!

So i've seriously been considering changing my major to sociology. I talked to my professor and she seemed really excited about the idea. I just love all aspects of it. So she wants me to schedule an appointment with her to talk about where i need to go from here, career options with a BA in Sociolgy, and just overall discussion about sociology...I am super excited.

In other news, Riley and I are doing well. He's been sick the last couple days. It's this throat-y, sinus-y thing going around. A bunch of our friends had it and now he's got it. Thankfully, I haven't been feeling bad at all...(fingers crossed).

I miss my sister-in-law. I haven't seen her in over a week...that sounds really lame but we usually see eachother like every other day. :(
