003 / an end and a beginning

Not that the thing ending is even in the same category as the thing beginning, mind you... haha. 

Today is the AFC/NFC championship games.  I am hoping for a Packers/Jets Superbowl come Feb 6.  (This is the thing that's ending... seriously, I don't know what I'm going to do with my Sunday afternoons between the Superbowl and pre-season.  Help!)

The thing that's beginning is the spring semester of classes.  I guess I am pretty excited because I will be done with my undergrad at the end of this year (fingers crossed!) but for some reason, I just feel like school crept up on me this time around.  I usually am really looking forward to school starting again.  Maybe it's because I still feel like I should have graduated already.  Regardless, I don't have much time left in my undergraduate career (thank God) and I'm ready to work hard this semester.  I ended up with a 3.52 last semester, and I'd really like to get at least an A- in every class, which shouldn't be too difficult because I'm taking four psychology classes and one computer programming class. :)

Yesterday my big sis left to head back to Louisiana.  I have missed her since I left LSU, and I will miss her now too, but I am so glad to be able to be by myself again.  I cannot function when I feel obligated to someone 24/7 for too long.  I think that was something about J - I could spend so much time with him and not want to jump off a cliff.  But as I learned from Bubu recently, being able to spend three days with someone and not want to kill them is not a good enough reason to be with them.  I am not intending to talk about J much, but he's unfortunately still on my mind a lot more than I'd like him to be. 

Anyway... I guess that's all for now.  I'll possibly post my class & work schedule later for anyone who is reading this :P

002 / felicity & fortune

I am going to have to say I'm a lucky girl.  I am surrounded by all these people who love me, I have great opportunities in my life, & more coming my way.  Sometimes it amazes me just how much I have been blessed!

I was glad to get a chance to go to Minnesota to see my friends this past weekend.  I love them together (and individually, of course!) so it was good to have them (almost) to myself, instead of having to share them like when they come here to visit. ;) It is so good to see them together, because it reminds me that you don't have to lead a fairytale life to get a fairytale ending.  It gives me hope that I will one day have one too.

I am also especially glad for Bubu, because he gives me such good advice and talks me through things from a guy perspective.  I am glad that we are able to be friends :) and I know he is, too.

Today, my big sis from LSU is coming to visit until Saturday!  I am already a little worn out on people, but I'll find some way to make it work.  I am not sure what to do with her while she's here, but we'll probably spend a day in DC - maybe tomorrow?  We're also going to go ice skating at some point... I am not creative!  I need help with planning sometimes. 

Well, I think I should try to nap a little before I have to get up and clean.  Hopefully KTP's plane will be able to land on-time tonight.
