Post #16 - Welcome to a brand new world

Well hello there, have I seen you before? Perhaps I have passed you while walking down the street sometime. did I say hello? Was I nice? No? how unfortunate. Perhaps we can get to know each other soon. Wouldn't that be nice.

Anyways...

So, first post of 2010!! Isn't that exciting? I haven't posted anything in a while, and like a classic blogger I feel it is necessary that I add this next sentence...

I'm sorry that I haven't written anything in a while.

Phew! glad I got that out! It seems that every blogger that hasn't written in a while has to include that sentence in his or her first post after a long break. I didn't want to be the exception...

Anyways, I'm probably boring you to tears right now. Here's a Kleenex. ha ha.

Sorry.

Anyways, you're probably wondering what my new years resolution is, since i managed to keep my last one perfectly. I'm so proud of myself for that one. So my thinking is that since I did do well on my last, this new one must be that much better. O.K. here it is: to apply myself more in school to get a 3.263 GPA this semester and to get more active by going to the gym more often. If all goes according to plan ( as it doubtlessly will. fingers crossed) I will look like a combination of me, Einstein, and this dude....

ha ha. Idk who he is but I would KILL to look like that. (Take a look at me this time next year and I will look like that...

I WISH)

Anyways, there were some more topics that I wanted to post on this post. give me a sec to try and remember what they are.

Uhhh.... sorry still in vacation mode. Ah! Christmas! ha ha. Christmas break was fun. Not amazing fun, just fun. middle kinda fun. I didn't really see anyone except for the three time all month. Three times in a month? that's kinda sad. even for me. I'm sure I can do better next time. So anyways, I got some nice stuff for Christmas. some books that I had wanted. like this one. I love Robert Jordan (The Gathering Storm (Wheel of Time))!! Then I also got some American Eagle clothing, which is like the best!! Love that store. I'm afraid I can't recall anything else that I got b/c i forgot. oops. But those were my fav. things anyways.

So I'm taking some more classes this semester, 17 credits up from 13. It should be a challenge, but I'm totally up for it. My classes include: Chem 1128Q, Math 1131Q, Engr 1166, Cse 1010 and Psyc 1100. Unless you go to UCONN you probably don't have any idea what those classes are. I'll explain:
-Chemistry
-Calculus
-Foundations of Engineering
-Computer science
-General Psychology
All in all, they will be tough, but interesting. here's to hoping I can keep up!!

So, I recently applied for a summer job at de maximus, inc where my neighbor works. de maximus is a environmental clean-up company that also does various other environmental acts. If I get the job I would be soo excited. I think it would be a great experience for me in my major. Who knows? Fingers crossed

well, that's about it. I can't think of anything else to write, so i'll catch you all up later.

Post #13 - Halloween Weekend

So, I thought it fitting that post #13 should be saved for Halloween. Fitting, isn't it? Thought so, thanks.
I never knew halloween was so popular in college, I should have known though, Halloween is the only time you can dress like a slut and it's perfectly O.K.  Slutty Docter, Slutty Witch, Slutty cat, slutty cop. It's all the same. Of course, not everyone dresses up like this. Some people actually take time to make their costumes.
My Halloween actually started on tuesday when I carved a pumpkin at work. It was so much fun, but it didn't look very good afterwards. I carved another one on Wednesday, this one was better. I did it with my friend Megan. We did a ghost. Well, she did most of it, pretty much all of it actually. I felt kinda bad.
On Friday, Putnum was having its Halloween Lunch, Megan and I worked then, scaring people. We weren't very scary. Friday night, i went over to Gordon's. There, we carved apples (don't ask, but it was fun. Even though mine sucked), watched Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog (I love this. I have watched it so many times since seeing it for the first time: I'm obsessed), Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (#2 for all you who have no idea), and Donny Darko. That was a weird movie. But i liked it, and understood it, thanks to some help from Moe and Gordon.
We finished at two in the morning, lol. I decided to walk home instead of spending the night, b/c their ground is hard. On the way home, I found a $1000 bill. It was totally fake, but I didn't know that at the time. I freaked out and got so excited. I'm so glad I only texted a few people about it, sort of embarassing. lol. Hey, I was tired. So when I got home and turned out the light, Chris pointed out that it was totally fake.  I decided to tape it to my wall, just so that I would always remind myself how gullible I am (for all of you our there, that obvously means incredibly gullible). Hopefully now I won't ever do that again.
so, Saturday. got up at noon, I lost my husky one card sometime earlier so I couldn't go out to eat. I ate an apple and started studying for Biology. Moe called later and said that she had it. i ran out to grab it and get something to eat. It was very windy. Just thought you might want to know. I ate and returned home (to my bachlor's pad, lol). Once I had gotten back, I resumed studying for Biology until I had to go to work.
There was nothing remotly interesting going on at work, no very many people were dressed up, perhaps four or five. I did serving line again, which I love so I was happy. Putnum closes at seven fifteen, and after that timee start cleaning and we finish aound 8 each night. the thing is one of the managers or something, will turn off all the light at around seven twenty to seven twenty five. I'm all for being green and saving energy and everything, but I'm afraid I have to toe the line when it comes to cleaning food and stuff off counters in the dark. whatever, I'm over it.
Ballroom Party. It wasa blast, We danced and partied, I'm really sorry, but I'm writing this soo late (past halloween, not at night) so I don't remember anything. I'm really sorry ballroom people, its not that I don't love you I do, really. I wrote notes down about what to write about next, because I knew i wouldn't have remembered it alone. I was also supposed to write something about moes place, I think I already did, but it was below the ballroom party so, who knows......

Well, to cap it off, this was such a lame post. Sorry readers, that's all for now. Catch up with you later.
