home sweet home

I really can't believe that it is all over. As I sit her in my cozy little spot on the couch with the tree lit across the room and the sent of pumpkin spice floating through the air it simply feels as if I'm on Christmas break.  But I graduated!  Maybe it will hit me hard when everyone goes back to lakeland in January except me, I will be here, starting my internship, finding a job and an apartment, and starting a real life.   I feel like those years flew by too fast.  I could go on and on about what I'm going to miss: palace Fridays with Heather, turtles, dance parties, gosh!, drive in movies, dress code wait no I wont miss that, but I'll shut up now.  It truly is a bittersweet ending.

Anyhow, it's Christmas!!!!! The parties have already begun and so has the Christmas baking.  Currently I am compiling my complete list of treats to be baked this season, better get your order in quick! So far this list consist of chocolate covered everything, lemon cookies, sugar cookies, chocolate woopies, joe froggers, chocolate truffles, pecan clusters, apple crumb pie, peppermint bark, cherry pecan streusel loafs, and whatever other wonderful creations drift into my mind.  Oh the holidays.  Tomorrow is the first time I will wonder out into the shopping frenzy to purchase Christmas presents for all those I hold dearest, and of course to buy myself plenty of red and green to wear this season.  Oh there is so much to look forward to this Christmas!

write as it comes

so it's been awhile...

This is like finals week for me and it sucks.  I have five, count 'em five papers due by next Friday; not to mention the other crap that is left over from throughout the year, of which I have yet to finish. But, I am graduating.  Oh those three words are so glorious.  I am not even going to get into the mixed emotions of graduation right now - 1 AM on a Wednesday night is not the time.... or is it? Hmmmm nope.

So it is fall and I have yet to experience the joys of a warm bonfire and gewie marshmallows.  It kinda depresses me.  Though we did have our own little fire in the kitchen last night thanks to me. long story but in the end we had a melted spatula, a ruined pot, and some nice fried chicken strips of which I ate.  Yes it was eventful. Anyhow I feel like everyone should know (if of course you have not already seen the commercial) that you can go to Disney for free on your birthday. Yep I signed up online a couple of hours ago, you should too.  And in case anyone was wondering the best song on the new Taylor Swift CD is Breathe.   

Well, more homework. Break over.

it's called procrastination

I have a test in History and Theology of the Pentecostal Movement tomorrow over one-hundred and fifty something slides.... and this is what I am doing.

oh and its 1AM and I have downed two of those medium sized red bulls, oh college.

i need sleep

I am supposed to be studying for a HUGE midterm I have on Wednesday, but I am distracted.  It happens after you have a completely amazing weekend with your friends and are then shipped back to college to be bored and do homework.  It was a a country weekend, complete with chicken house, the county fair, and line dancing thanks to kasey lynne - freakin' hilarious is all that can describe that night. 

 I hate being caught between the two worlds of college and home, I would just like to say that.

hmmm and that's all because I have not gone to bed before 3 all weekend and I would like to start now. 

this is completely pointless, ignore if possible

Oh it was quite a weekend.  Complete with Palace!, me hitting a lady with my yellow golf ball at put put, experiencing wheat pizza for the fist time (which was rather tasty), and staying up till 4 am only to have to drive to Orlando at 8 in the morning.  But now it is Tuesday and there are classes and homework and homework and more homework - because there is a price to pay for graduating in December.  I try to be studious.  I live in the library, yet I'm not sure if I wouldn't get more done just sitting in my room... probably not, I would watch TV or sleep.  I am an excellent napper (I took three yesterday).  I quite like the library though; even if instead of studying I am shopping online, or ralphie is making me laugh hysterically, or if I am blogging on here instead of reading chapter I don't even know of Newbigin.  Whatever.

If anyone has good suggestions for what I should name my cute little boutique that will hopefully soon be reality, feel free to share :)

my excuse

Recently I received an email asking "why do you have a blog that you don't blog in?" And I guess it did end pretty quickly, but I have reasons, excuses, anything! So here they are: 1.) I went back to college, 2.) I am taking 21 credit hours...count 'em 21, 3.) Thanks to Southeastern I have had NO internet in my house until this week, 4.) I forgot my blogger password and did not figure out what it was until today in History and Theology of the Pentecostal Movement. But I am back now!

SCHOOL IS SO NOT COOL
