2:30-4:20mw, 12:30-1:45tth, 3:30-4:45tth

My schedule really isn't conducive to studying. It's really only conducive to going out 8 out of 11 days that I've been back so far. Great.

I'm pretty much never going to date anyone ever again.

COTTON CANDY PARTY

In the first 43 minutes of my day, I have...

1. checked everyone's away messages... three times.

2. laid in bed and thought about how good it feels to not have to be anywhere until 2:30pm.

3. considered getting to work on some applications and such. Vetoed that.

4. wiped my coffee table and counter down with a Clorox wipe.

5. facebook stalked some people.

6. checked my class schedule and class rosters.

In the next 43 minutes of my day, I'd like to think I'll get a shower and maybe some food. Probably not. Chances are, I'll probably just repeat steps 1-3. (I just thought about that Brian McKnight song... because I'm a loser.)

Welcome back!

happy birthday, anthony blaise

on my first day back...

Freshman year, I went back home to see Angel because she had just come home from Costa Rica.
Sophomore year, I went to a frat party with Ashley Roe and Meghan.
Junior year, we ate at El Cactus and had a party at Hegarty's, and I drank too much tequila and got sick.
Senior year, well I went to see the 40 year old Virgin last night, but we'll have to see what goes down tonight!

at age 21

I'm trying to figure out whether or not I'm actually getting older. I know physically, I am, but I feel like I'm progressively getting more immature. Maybe the innocence that was characteristically me in high school was the source of my feigned maturity. I never drank til I was 18, never saw anyone do drugs of any type until college (saw cocaine for the first time just this summer), never caught the attention of a boy until I was 15 or so, never even knew the feeling of jealousy in a relationship until I was 19, never knew what petty drama was until recently. It seems as though these experiences throughout life, though mainly insignificant, have only taught me to be more reckless with who I am. This summer, I didn't care if work forced me to wake up at 6:30am, I'd drink and have a good time whenever I could. I loved so openly and selflessly when I was only 19, but now I'm selfish, and I want to do what I want, see who I want to see, go where I want to go, but still have him waiting for me at the end of the day with no questions asked. When all my friends questioned how I dealt with a certain roommate of mine, I thought it was because I was easy going and could live with anyone. Now, as I realize it will be sad to be without roommates who I so looked forward to living with just a year ago, I know that this is for the best if we are all to forget about the pettiness. It's just, am I becoming so immature that I'm going to forget how to forgive? When will 'enough' be enough so I can stop being so selfish and realize what is standing in front of me? When will I calm down?

Where I'm staying in Vegas

things said to me in the past week by GPWs/line operators/fork lift drivers at work

--Hey babydoll!
--When's your last day? I would like to take you to dinner at Mexican restaurant. You live 45 minutes away? It's okay: I come pick you up!
--You look cute in blue jeans.
--Maybe I can take you out for a drink before your last day here?
--Come by before next Wednesday. I've got a gift for you.

Work has been pretty sweet lately. Last Thursday, I gave my first dry run of my final presentation, and my bosses mainly had positive feedback. For the past week, I've been finishing up one project and preparing that presentation for the real deal, which was today. I only have 4 more days of work, but the fun doesn't end there: right after that I'm heading to Vegas, then to Charleston, then finally back to Clemson! Summer's been great, I'd do it all over again in a heartbeat!
