Yay for the last week of school – boo for finals during the last week. Six finals I’ll be taking next week. Yes my friends, six. What a fun time next week will be. I’ll probably lose a bunch of hair from the stress. But sadly, I like it—the stress that is. I seem to thrive off the stress. Weird.

Hmmm…things have been steady. I had three papers due last week, one due this morning. I found out Monday that I made a 92 on my history paper; I think a YAY is in order for that! I find out my grade for my American Lit, Global Politics, and Astronomy paper next week during finals.

The newspaper came out this week. Not sure how people took it. People don’t talk to me about the newspaper when it comes out. I try to get as many people as I can to comment on the paper and give some constructive criticism, but no one wants to. I don’t understand. But I thought it was ok, the colors were messed up because of the printing press—other than that I was pleased. I’ve heard some hear say about an old writer dissing the paper. Bitch. Nuff said on that.

I’m listening to the Fantasia cd right now, it’s pretty good. During Thanksgiving break when I was in Outwrite with Brandon, they played her cd. Loved it, so I bought it this week. She has a nice variety of songs—some fast, some slow, some you want to shake your groove thang to, all around pretty good.

Last weekend I participated in the local Christmas parade. I helped build the float for the school, well not build, I really just looked at them build and took the trash to the dumpster. Don’t put a hammer or drill in my hand. Out of all the millions of float in the parade, our school won first place!! Another YAY in order there! Phillip (Activities Director) then took all of us out to Golden Carole Sunday evening after we took the float down. So how about I almost ate myself to death, but it was so worth it. I love food. Really, I do. If I could, I think I would marry a hamburger. Forget getting a boyfriend, just give me a nice burger and I’m content. Not really, but burger will do for now.

UGA time!!! I don’t know if I want to live on campus or get an apartment. I don’t know why I’m talking like I’ve already been accepted—I’ll be applying when I return from Christmas break. Dr. Jackson (the President of the college) said he would write me a recommendation. Awesome. Gosh I hope I get in. The more I think about it the more I really want to head up there.

OH OH…I get my laptop Monday!!! Ordered it from dell.com last weekend…I’ve been tracking it everyday this week. Last time I checked (5 minutes ago), the laptop had just left the Doraville UPS station en route to Douglas, GA.UPS store? UPS hub? Not sure).

The radio station has got me working a lot more lately. The secretary has been out for about two weeks so I’ve been going in helping with answering the phones and filing. But being able to be there during the afternoons has helped; I’ve got to record two commercials and write one for the station. I haven’t heard my self on the radio yet—it doesn’t help that I don’t even listen to station I work at. Well we play Classis Hits aKa crap.

Ok, so Christmas break will be about working at Barnes & Noble and seeing people I haven’t seen forever. And yes Kori, I will be seeing you all over the break. Alan, I’m so sorry I haven’t called! We still need to visit Kori at Georgia Southern next semester.

OMG. I have to give a little plug to Ryan. Go over to the little bar on the left of the screen and under other people’s blogs, click on Ryan’s. This boy (wait, this is no boy, scratch that), I mean man is going places.

Sam N. goes to Iran tomorrow to visit her family for the Christmas break. I’m scared for her. I told her if something happens she should call me so we can record it and I can narrate it for CNN. We both can finally be real journalists on CNN. Oh yeah.

Samantha B. wants to have a Christmas party this weekend. But one of our wonderful friends who shall remain nameless wants to invite certain people, which is sure to invoke drama if said people grace us with their presence. Hmm…I don’t know if that’s a good idea. We shall see.

Fizzle.

Sizzle.

Those words were just said on the Fantasia cd. I love it. I think I should start saying fizzle.

I’m tired. I need to finish up here and hit my wonderful bed.

Good day!
