Party Like Its Your Birthday!

Happy Birthday Holly!!!! 22, totally awesome! Well today was a mixed day. Had a pretty interesing guest lecture in my Geog 250 class and we got our tests back. I got the highest grade in class!! How awesome is that? I didn't miss any points on the essays or definitions at all, which is cool. In Geog 130 we talked about disease, and I started to feel a little woosy because we talked about AIDS and how it spreads, a lot about blood and needles, not my two favorite subjects. Question for all those out there who still read this. How far do you think kids in grades k-6 can walk to school? Then I went to the store to prepare for the picnic and for girls night. I'm really excited for this weekend!

Last night was fun because we got to see Rick's dad Steve. He is so awesome and totally nice. He took us to Goodwood barbeque and it was so good. I go bbq chicken, french fires and coleslaw, yum yum. We found out about rick's family since we're no good at keeping in touch. His brother Tim just worked out a few kinks in his research and presented it to his mentor. Pretty much all he has left to do to finish his Ph. D. is write it up and present it at a couple of conferences. It only took him 2 years, and steve said the average is 5, basically he is amazing. Jen and family are moving to PA in June, and it will be sad to have them be so far away. But the fun thing is that we're getting together in the end of May for an Allison get together! I'm really excited, I'll finally get to meet Alexa and Joseph, and I'm very excited.

And in other news I'm here at work doing not much of anything, just waiting to do work later, like set up the gym for Conference and do all the locking up of the buildings. Also, Rick and I might have aquired more technological goodies today because he redid the Dell kiosk again. I hope we did, then we would have 3 printers, 4 mp3 players and 4 computers. That would be a total blast. Actually, I hope we do get to keep them only because then maybe we could relieve Holly and Caleb of some computer woes. That would be a pretty good birthday present.

I'm gonna party like its 1999

Well, not really. Rick is gone to sunny California again for the next couple of days. I'm fine with that, I can make tuna and take a bubble bath and not clean the house and feel zero guilt. But, I do have multiple midterms this week, which I definitely need to study for. One of them will be the first for the class, so I don't really know what to expect. One of them I already know I'm going to fail, but I'm going to try as hard as I can not to (stupid economics). Geography I really want to ace. I want to get an A in this class, that is my goal.

Well today was an exciting day because we got a new refrigerator today. It is the same as Caleb and Holly's which is cool, except I don't like the weird handles to open the doors. I'm sure I'll learn to love it though. It was good because I could finally sweep under there and get all the broken glass from about 6 months ago when in two consecutive days I broke a jar of salsa and a cup right by the fridge.

So, I'm really excited for tomorrow. And no, not because of aerobics, that class gave me sore armpits today. It is because tomorrow is International Pi Day, which is one of the best days of the year. And I know none of my classes will celebrate it like they did when I was a chem major, but I still love it. I'm having Rick pick up a pie at Marie Callender's while he's in Salt Lake, and it will be delicious. Well, I'd better get back to studying. And I'd better get back to preparing for the first top 12 competition for this season of American Idol, it will be awesome

Today is a Tired Day

Fridays feel long because I spend 5 hours in the SWKT. All my classes are geography classes too, which is good, but a bit of overkill. I'm tired and I just want to sleep. Either that or go rent a chick flick and eat cookie dough. I wish my life had music in the background, just like in movies and TV shows, because it is too quiet right now and I wish some outside being would pick a proper song for the mood and just play it. Well this weekend will be filled with a bunch of homework since I have a midterm next week and prof. Jackson decided that he should give us an atlas assignment. I really don't like those, he makes some stinking hard questions. Also I need to get a head start on my Econ because it always seems I do hours and hours of it on wednesday nights or thursday mornings, which isn't any good at all.

In other news, I got my new Mary Kay foundation yesterday and I'm just loving it! I hope that all the stuff I got will do wonders for my skin, because my skin is always angry. What would even be better is if I could find my nail file so that they could be smooth and I could start growing them out. How awesome would it be for me to have smooth hands and at least some semblence of finger nails?!

I'm bored, so I'm just going to keep typing. Rick should hear back from PWC by the end of next week. Hopefully it is a yes because that is the company Rick really wants to work for. And it would be nice to find out so early because then we can try and find someone to sublease our apartment and I could start looking for possible work in LA.

Last but not least, I've decided that I'm going to start a dream journal. I'll type as much of each dream that I can remember, details and all. I wish I was an artist though, becuase most of the time it would just be easier to draw what I see instead of describe it. Someday maybe I'll publish it and make my millions!
