Monday, April 27
My roomie got a dog!! Its only for 2 weeks, but I am excited :D she is small and cute and does not bark too much.
Paper is coming along... I will eventually finish it tonight sometime, and then I will be done! Huzzah! Then I get to sit around and read and sleep (and finish up a couple of pots in ceramics) and maybe party a little bit ;D

god, so again I have stopped blogging. I'm not really sure why I do it so sporadically. I think I am still motivated to write something by a sense of guilt instilled in me by my 4th grade teacher, who told us all how disappointed our older selves would be in our younger selves if we didn't journal our lives. but I am also lazy and don't feel like it a lot of the time. oh well, I suppose since it is for myself and not any hypothetical readers it does not really matter how sporadic I am.
so has anything significant happened in my life since november? I don't know. I've been volunteering at safeplace, which is entirely unexciting but still fun to play with the kids. though it still feels like a bit of a chore; I'm not used to having something to do on friday's. I almost want to be done with it, but that makes me feel guilty. :/
I also want to be done with rating. though it is super helpful to have a job that I can do at home and get that constant source of cash, but god it is so tiring. in a real job you don't actually have to work every minute that you are paid for, but with rating you do, and hours are a lot longer that way :P but by the time I am done in june, I should already have a real full-time job so money wont be an issue. the job is pretty important since I sort of need insurance, as it is getting ready to poof out of existence when I graduate.
sadly, when I graduate I will be living with my parents, rather than with Minda and Michelle :( I just am not confident enough in my money situation, and I think its probably the most mature and responsible thing to do at this point, plus it will give me a chance to pay back Afshan all the money I owe him. I just payed him about a fourth, $900, so I am on my way to being debt free! I hate owing him that money, because I get all excited about my savings, then I remember that none of it is actually my money. I want to start earning my money again :P
other than that, just FREAKING GRADUATION. haha, though its not actually that big of a deal... at least not in my head. much more important, my senior show is up at the moment! it was very exciting and stressful getting it all together, since I didnt decide on my theme until this semester, so I had to make everything for the show this semester, instead of using stuff I've made before. so that was crazy, but I got it all together, and the show is awesome and the opening was great! yayyyy. the only problem is I still have some number of weeks of school, a few loose ends in ceramics, and a stupid 10 page paper to finish before I graduate. but I feel so done... I dont want to work more :( ..and havn't been so far. bah. but I will get through, and then I wont write another paper for at least a year! I vow! we will see if I end up in graduate school... bleh.
mostly I just want to sleep all day, then wake up for food breaks where I eat amazing delicious cheese, and greek food, and olive oil with bread... mmmmmmmmm. I have become addicted to brie this semester.. bad for me and my bank account. but once I live at home I wont have to buy normal groceries, so I can splurg on delicious things at least some of the time! plus I plan to learn how to make things like hummus so I dont have to buy it. mm hummus. god I want to eat delicious food :( that is my number one motivation for going overseas. foooooood.
bah. well I have updated. perhapse I will do it again. but right now my freaking allergies are killing me, and my terrible beer is not helping, so I choose to sleep. if I am lucky I get to see crazy tomorrow and my nose will not be dripping like a leaky faucet!! huzzah!
