Fall Break Photos

What? Another post so soon? Ce n'est pas vrai!

Yeah, so my parents are in France currently and I'm super jealous. I'll be spending Thanksgiving at mes grandparents, without them. Mais, I'm also very happy for them to get the opportunity to go to France again.

Anyway! This is kind of my treat for finishing my lab report before orchestra practice today. It was my last bit of work standing between me and Thanksgiving vacation. After orchestra tonight I have to turn in my report and go to Cal class on Tuesday and then I'm free. :D

I'm lying in my dorm bed now, typing away. It's really sad-- I've pretty much given up on NaNo. College and life have been keeping me incredibly busy; I'm roughly 10k behind. I may try to catch up over break but I also really want to just relax and enjoy myself. This last few weeks have been crazy busy and stressful and once I get back from Thanksgiving break it will be even more crazy and stressful. So I do need to actual relax, and not stress out over Thanksgiving.

Oy. Stress. I haven't really noticed it, I mean I know I'm stressed but it never bothered me much. However, I may be getting TMJ because of it-- my jaw hurts like hell whenever I open it to like eat or something.

Anyway! I haven't posted pictures in forever so I thought that I would post some of my pictures from my fall trip home....if they ever load....

I loved the feeling of this-- all faded and artsy.

I love the lighting of this one.

I loved sitting/crouching under the tree to get this perspective.

I just love the faded feeling of this photo.

Oy.

Wow, it really has been forever since I last posted! I'm only posting to avoid working on my physics; I have a test tomorrow that I just might fail D: so much to learn, so little time. I know, I know, I should be studying-- which is what I have been doing for the past few hours, as soon as my trio performance let out. It's just so much to learn....though I think I'll manage. Either way, when she adds the lab to our grade, my grade will drastically improve. Which reminds me, I need to finish my lab report due Tuesday...I'm almost done with it, I have to write the abstract and that's it.

Oy. Life. It's just been crazy hectic. If I have time, and internet connection over Thanksgiving break I'll try to post pictures of my crazy adventures, like going to the Quidditch World Cup in NYC. :D

Yup, I play quidditch.

And I wonder why I'm single...

Juuusttt kidding, quidditch is not the reason why I am alone. Wow, this is taking a depressing turn. New topic! About how much I dislike physics currently. Yes, a much better topic to talk about. I would love to post photos from my fall trip home but I just lack the time. Once I'm doing procrastinating here, I'm going to take a shower, then read as much for Journey's as I can before I fall asleep.

Fun times, fun times. I would say I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving break-- and I am-- but not as much as everyone else because mes parents decided to leave me and go to France for a month; which means I'll be at my grandparents for Thanksgiving and then home alone for the rest of break.

Oh well, plenty of time to take pictures. ;)

And now I really must end this little effort at procrastination. It's really all my fault-- I was the one who chose to go to the movies with my friends this afternoon. Movie sucked, but it was so much fun to hang out with friends.

Time Flies

I know, I know, I keep rehashing this idea of how the time flies by but it's so true!

This weekend was fall break for me-- I came home for the first time in nine weeks on Wednesday. I wish I had another week off, but I have to head back to college on Sunday. Upon arriving I have only a couple of days to write a paper, due my physics homework, and get ready for a mid-term.

So it's gonna suck.

But then, we're going ice skating :D Light at the end of a very dark, dingy tunnel. :P

So, guys suck. Nothing new really. Oy.

Anyway, on a happier note, fall break has been so much fun-- seeing all my old friends back home, seeing my pets, family, piano...;)

Which reminds me, I need to go practice said piano.

See ya!

Relationships Suck

Not like I'm in one or anything. They just suck. Mostly in the way they make you feel. And not the whole lovey-dovey gooey happy way. The whole 'oh course they don't like me back, how could they?'. The whole internal debate on whether or not your crush feels the same way about you. And if they are like most guys, it's neigh impossible to tell. So you over analyze everything motion that they make, every word they say. Every time they don't text back. o.o Yeah, it's stupid. And that's why I hate relationships. Tomorrow I just may post a post about how I just love relationships. We'll see.

Life so far

So I just finished my first full week of classes.

Goodness, it seems like we have been here a lot longer than that. o.o And we have-- we've been here for half a month plus a few odd days. Anyway, it's the holiday weekend, which means a chance to finally catch up on some sleep. ;)

Saturday night was full of Dr. Who-- I'm so hooked. It was only my second time seeing it but I'm already in love.

Too bad that can't happen with some guy here....O.o

Anyway! I adore that show and love spending my nights with my friends, huddled under a blanket in the SLTC grabbing each other and screaming every time something scary happened. which was quite often ;) goooodd timessss.

Anyway, today was pretty laid back. Church, then lunch with friends, walmart run with my car loaded down with car-less friends, productive music practice, dinner, then hairspray. :) First time watching the movie-- I loved it and it made me want to dance. Which I really can't do. But still.

So it appears like this has turned from a photo blog to a blog blog. Sorry 'bout that. I may change the privacy settings so only I can read it. Secret blog diary. ;) Haha we shall see.

Winning!

We won!!!!!

I supposed I should tell you what we won.

SHIRTTAILS!!!!

Shirttails is a dance competition between all the dorms here. At the end, a winner from the girls dorms, and a winner from the guys dorms is chosen.

Yeah, we won. :D

The victory was especially sweet because of stuff we had heard the other dorms saying about us. The other dorms said that they didn't care who won as long as it wasn't Veasey ((us)). Which made us wanna beat everyone that much more. ;) We are just viewed as sluts-- though all the dances were equally racy. It's just the stereotype of Veasey. However, we worked our buts off this week preparing the dance. It had intricate formations and tricky moves. And it had the Veasey crawl. ;) Of course.

Anyway, I have bruises all up and down my leg, and a monster one on my hip-- Shirttail scars. It's bittersweet because it's all over. One performance and that was it.

But it was amazing. When they called our name as the girls winner we all rushed towards the brick pit and formed a massive huddle. Then, we all took off for the fountain and jumped in-- winner's rights ;) though the grounds people/faculty of some sort weren't too happy about this.

After we all got soaked we ran back to the dorms. We had roughly thirty minutes to transform sweaty and soaked into sexy and fresh. There was a concert/party right after Shirttails. Super Mash Bros or something like that. So we quickly changed and tried to wipe off all the sweet and then headed to the concert. The concert was my type of party-- I could have stayed there all night. Dancing, music, and not in an enclosed dorm room space like the Martin parties are. My roommate prefers the Martin parties-- why I have no clue. I prefer the more open, concert like parties.

Unfortunately we didn't get to stay long because we were all starving. So, we-- Brittany, Lauren, and I-- all went to my car and headed to Taco Bell. Haha cause that's just what Veasey girls do.

After Taco Bell, we really wanted something sweet-- but it was 11 and everything was closed. Except McDonald's! So we went there to get some dessert. Then, it was back to Hendrix where Brittany went off to the Martin party and Lauren followed mostly to see what a Martin party was like. I came up to my dorm room and collapsed into bed.

And that was the night :) Today I'm meeting my parents are a local Lutheran church around 10:45 then going out to lunch. They brought with them two small bookcases for our dorm room-- much needed storage space.

Anyway, just another college check in. :D It was so loud in Veasey last night, every girl was screaming at the top of her lungs, the sound bouncing off the stairwell walls.

So much fun :)

1st Party!

So, the most important news of today is that I found my phone! :D Some kind soul returned it to lost and found, where I picked it up and starting squealing. And texting. And calling. And playing games.

It's so nice to have it back.

In other news, I went to my first college party-- aka my roommate/best friend drug me to a party.

*shrug* I didn't have a bad time per se, I just didn't have a good time. It was in a dorm, so there were four dorm rooms which were the 'dancing' rooms aka small torture cells. ;) Justt kiddinnngggg. It was packed, hot, and people were sweaty. There was no way to talk to anyone-- most people were too drunk to talk to anyway.

Oh, well. I left early, and practiced our Shirttails routine with some other girls. I can now say that I've been to a party-- and I also know that I haven't missed out on the others that I chose not to go to. ;)

Anyway, the only way that I went to this party was because I have absolutely no classes tomorrow. Some people there partying had 8 am classes. O.o Not too smart.

Tomorrow, the only thing on the list is possibly laundry, playing for the band director (oh no, not intimidating at all), a walmart run, and shirttails practice for three hours.

Oh the life of a college student ;)
