Well, this is my update. I was tired of looking at that last journal. whatever

With the exception of tomorrow, I will be on vacation for almost a solid week. That feels so good.

I've been knitting scarves for Christmas. I got the Knifty Knitter and I couldn't be happier with it. I feel extremely productive. It's nice to see the product of what I've been...

Well, I suppose I should update.

Happy Halloween everyone! Fall is my favorite season of the year, and I love all of the leaves and colors and smells. This year in Pittsburgh, it seems as if we've bypassed fall altogether and jumped straight into winter. I know I'll probably be complaining a lot more later, so I'll just stfu. I don't really like the cold...

My weekend starts tonight.

I got 2 A's in my first semester of grad school biggrin
My next 8 week session starts on Monday. I already received one syllabus, and let me tell ya - I'm not looking forward to it. Call me crazy, but corporate finance just isn't my idea of a good time.

I was hoping and plotting to visit the boy (and relieve...

thank you.. i had to get it when i saw it, heh.

i want to see elizabethtown too actually, let me know how it is if you go!
ldwarren:
Aww hon, that's sweet. I miss you too and that ghetto booty..your words, not mine. wink

Sounds like you are in a slight limbo period in your romantic life which is difficult but things resolve themselves in time. I feel as though Ive pretty much moved on from SG and learnt what lessons I should have by now. Im a lot less enthusiastic about the site. BUT can I stress that I dont include the core group of people I always look out for (ie. you, bozo!), in a way it makes me value the contact more.

I do really love the new Fiona CD. I still probably prefer the edginess of the second album more but its a fucking beautiful record and it sums up my current mood of romanticism. I've bought it twice now - got it on dualdisc and it has a mix of the album on DVD, which means its more impressively produced, and some interesting video stuff. Well worth a look!

We should talk more. I always have time for you.

This will probably the longest journal entry that I'll ever write, so pay attention:

1. I despise all seafood. When I was a little girl, I wanted to be a marine biologist. I still watch anything and everything related to sea life. I never went to the beach until I was in high school, and soon realized that I was absolutely terrified of large bodies...

Thanks, love. It looks a little more like me, has some of my snotty nosed attitude...

Are you coming to Burlesque on Saturday? I dont know if I'm gonna be kicking it with the locals if you feel like some low-key-hanging out or whatever...
liante:
I think that's the most I've ever felt like I knew somebody based on the contents of a single journal entry. smile

Anyway, re: waking up at 2:05 AM for quizzes -- it sucks but it's also masochistically fun in a loopy kind of way. Like the time I biked 10 miles to school on snow-covered icy roads because the car was an ice-stormed popsicle. That was also fun in a loopy kind of way, even though I fell down twice and barked my knees but good.

It's nice to do the unnecessarily hard things once in a while to appreciate how easy life can be the rest of the time. Having to do them always would be hellish. Never doing them at all, it's easy to forget they're out there.

don'cha just wish you could take a break from life sometimes?? I don't get a vacation until next summer probably. Between grad school and work, I never have off more than 2 days in a row. Except Christmas, maybe. That will rawk.

I just want to live on a beach in Australia (pray for no hurricanes), with my doggies, and lover.

Bah.

Why does it...

Ugh - I just can't get into school mode mad

Not good, considering I've got two midterms in a week, and a 20+ pg paper due in about 3 weeks that I haven't even thought about yet.

In other news, I'm thinking of buying a house again. I found one that I'm really in love with. Although I'm not getting my raise for about another 4...

**Well, he called - last Tuesday night. It was amazing. We talked for about an hour...about nothing super serious, but he made a lot of 'we' statments. Like, remember when 'we' did this? etc. I slept like a baby that night. It ended with his phone dying, and he told me to wait a half hour and call him back...but I didn't. I don't like...

There's a newer place in South Side... between 22nd and 23rd Streets. I forget what the place is called... ask yebutz. I'm sure you don't wanna do anything TOO drastic, but just something to give you the "different" feel. And with the money coming in, why not blow it at a place OTHER than BoRics or Pelusi wink

So, school started last week. I feel pretty good about it.
One of my teachers has - no joke - 8 Master's degrees and 2 Phd's. eeek Suffice it to say, he makes us all feel like a bunch of slobbering retards. (Sorry if that offended anyone)

Work is going well. Last week was very stressful and these next few weeks are promising to be. It's...

I'm fine. I think its a poor decision on his part. Eventually, he will find this out. Rhett and Matt are both not thrilled about it, having hung out with them last week.
Maybe I should be laughing?
nicolelee:
Matt's bday was yesterday. He's in school, his gf and her baby live with him (same house). I think "people" (Rhett & girl, Jai & beast, who knows who else) will be going out tomorrow. If I don't end up in jail (another one!) tomorrow, then I'll be going out. Would you like to be my date??? Hit me up on AIM.
