Tired of all of those surveys made up by high school kids?! 'Have you ever kissed someone? Missed someone? Told someone you loved them? Drank alcohol?' 38 questions for the people who are a little older... 1. What bill do you hate paying the most? As if there is one I enjoy paying? Oh, very well. Credit card bills. They remind me of previous idiotic mistakes. 2. Where was the last place you had a romantic dinner? Oh that's easy. We only ever go to Sakura. We went on Thursday night! It was wonderfully delicious. 3. What do you really want to be doing right now? Well, not much. I guess if I didn't want to be doing this survey, I wouldn't be doing it. I wish I was hanging out with Kevvy though. 4. How many colleges did you attend? Three. A community college, then transferred to BAC, then moved to Anderson (Anderson University), then got homesick for BAC and went back!!! 5. Why did you choose the shirt that you have on right now? Umm, I am not wearing a shirt. I am...

Today I went shopping for a bridesmaid dress with my sister and another bridesmaid. We looked at a few other stores before going to David's Bridal; trying to find something cheaper that Tiff liked; but there weren't a lot of options. It's good, anyway, that we went to David's because the other bridesmaid lives in DC. She doesn't have to know what our dresses look like, she just need to find a dress in Watermelon (that's what color our dresses are). Below are my dress (halter) and Anne Marie's dress (strapless). We'll be wearing silver shoes, I'm getting a silver (really, more gray) sash and I am the ONLY ONE allowed to wear any rhinestones (like a rhinestone clip in my hair, or rhinestone jewelry) because I'm the maid of honor. And I didn't get a special dress. But that is okay. I like my dress. ( I'M NOT JUST SAYING THAT TIFFASAURUS, JUST BECAUSE YOU, THE BRIDE, READ MY BLOG. I REALLY DO LIKE IT. MUCH BETTER THAN THE DRESS WITH THE ROSES...

Wait... how did a song with such retarded lyrics become so popular? I'm bluffin' with my muffin I'm not lying, I'm just stunnin' with my love-glue-gunnin' Seriously? SERIOUSLY? And what the hell kind of name is "Gaga"?

I bring my laptop to one of my classes and I have found it immensely useful. Not only do I have better notes for this class than I have ever had for a lecture class without PowerPoint handouts, but I save a ton of paper. There are anywhere from 2-5 handouts to print off from IQ Web and bring to class each day; a waste of paper if I can just save it to my laptop, which I do. However, with just one week to go, I was told that wasting paper would become required. After all, how can I possibly take proper notes on a computer??? "You are required to PRINT OFF the IQ web materials and bring them to class. Reading them online during class and elsewhere is NOT adequate. There are two reasons for this: 1) Most importantly, printing off and reading materials allows you to underline, highlight and make margin notes! In this way, you will have something to focus on when I call on you. You won't draw a blank. 2) You can make further notes on the pages of the text when I lecture! You ca...

Finally, a full update on my job. First of all, how I got the job is pretty cool. I called the RuffleJob on Monday to inquire where to e-mail my resume; I think in the ad that I had gotten in my e-mail, it didn't say where to send resumes. I ended up talking with the RuffleOwner for about 30 minutes. She had been interviewing a lot of people and she was concerned about finding the right person for the job, because they would be working very closely with her. She liked how I sounded and asked me to come in for an interview that afternoon! A resounding "Yes!" and I headed over to South Park that afternoon. When I got to the interview, first, RuffleOwner showed me around the office, the stock room, etc. Then, I interviewed with her and the COO. It was my very first formal interview and I did a lot of "umms." I was really nervous!!! I tried to be as professional, honest, myself as I possibly could. RuffleOwner asked me a lot of questions that I should've expect...

I'm a little tired and I haven't done my reading for class tomorrow, but I still wanted to update: I've recently got a really awesome job at a small business, more to come on that later. Suffice to say, it's an excellent opportunity. Also, I have to dress a little nice every day for work. Prettying myself up a bit in the morning helps me to wake up. I don't know why. Maybe it's because I have to color coordinate instead of tossing on jeans. But I like being a little dressy every day. I have a midterm exam due on Friday (take home) a final and a paper on Tuesday. Then my summer classes will be over and I will pick up a few more hours at work. My current schedule Wake up at 8am, get ready for class and work 10-12: Theology class 12-1230: commute 1230-530: RUFFLE BUTTS (that's where I work, like I said, more later.) 530-6: commute 6-8: Ethics class (on TuTh) 8-11: Dinner, study, etc 11-8, SLEEP (Clearly, I didn't make my deadline tonight. It's already m...
