BLARRRG!!!

SO MUCH WORK!!!! I'm a terrible blogger, I'm sorry! This semester has me pretty blindsided so far as I try to work out classes, dance, scheduling, work, applying for new jobs, friends, etc. GAH!!! I apologize again, I hope to get back on track soon and back to blogging as well. Hang in there!

100th post!

So, this is my 100th post. Woohoo! Here it is:

First, a quote:

"It's never too late, or in my case too early, to be whoever you want to be. There's no time limit. Start whenever you want. You can change or stay the same. There are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people who have a different point of view. I hope you live a life you're proud of, and if you're not, I hope you have the courage to start all over again."
--The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

Second, classes!
My first class was great, but I'm waitlisted on it, so I hope I get in! I have a pretty good chance, so we'll see. Next up is a class I am signed up for but will hopefully drop if I get into the other class. That's in half a hour, so I better get moving!

Tomorrow

School starts tomorrow. I have things mostly in order, but these sort of things make my anxiety/OCD go all kinds of crazy, so I'm freaking out quite a bit internally. MEH!!! I don't like this feeling at all---for the most part it is out of my life but things like this can definitely trigger it again. I'm eating some of my mommy's delicious homemade applesauce, listening to relaxing music, and burning a yummy-smelling candle all in hopes of calming down a bit, and I think it is working. I'm going to try to go to bed soon because I'm waking up at (gasp!) 8:30 for my 9:35 class tomorrow. Good lord, that is early for me....hahaha. Alright, I'm off to get a little bit more done and then hopefully go to sleep! Goodnight!

Insanity

From my brother, and very apropos:
"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." --Albert Einstein

. . . . . .

Entirely unrelated: I just dropped my sister off at the airport, and saying goodbye was not too bad because I get to go see her and Katie in just two days! Yay! I'm so excited for Seattle/for something differnt. Staying at home this break has been lovely, but I am also ready for a bit more adventuring!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year, everybody! I hope your celebration was lovely. I had a really nice meal with some good old friends and then came back to my house for champagne, watching the ball drop, etc. I find it extremly silly that they replay the Times Square footage from midnight on the east coast again at midnight for us with the words "LIVE! From Times Square" in the corner of the screen. Ummm....not so much, guys, I'm pretty sure that happened a couple of hours ago. But, oh well. Also, I now have the 12Seconds Iphone app, (thanks to my friend Jacob who co-created 12seconds and his insistent urging!) and it is pretty cool. Check it out at 12seconds.tv

Again, happy New Year to everyone and I hope you are all well!
Back to reading my books....like every other day of winter break. :-)
