bad blogger!

I was doing so well, posting five days in a row. And then last night, after watching Sydney White with the roomie, it was Zzzzzzzzz. I was so tired. This back-to-school thing is catching up with me.

It might have to do with the fact that I stayed up until 2 or 3 three in the morning and slept until I woke up over break.

Just sayin'.

Tonight is the roomie and mine's "date" night. Since it is our last semester we've decided to have one night a week where she and I just hang out.

No other friends. (but we still love you!)
No significant others.

Just me and her.

Tonight is our first "best friends" date night. We're going to see Bride Wars!


"My hair is blue! BLUE!"

Next week we are off to the lake to hang out with my grandparents and just relax. But for future dates, I think we might go see some shows in Tulsa.


This opera comes to the PAC is March!



Travel to Kansas to walk the yellow brick road.


The roomie is from Kansas.

We are also planning on hitting up the Little House on the Prarie, complete with a picnic.

It's only about 30 minutes from our school.

We have some other fun things planned--none cost over 25 dollars and I can't wait to share the pictures from all of our fun "dates." Anyone have any inexpensive fun things to do?

school is not the best thing ever.

I'm now officially ONE credit short of my minor. It's so frustrating! I'm hoping to have it resolved by tomorrow. It's things like this that make me want to be done with school NOW.

School, is in fact, not the best thing ever.

But this is

I received the most awesome amazon packing in the mail today.

If you haven't watched Dr. Horrible's Sing-A-Long blog---click as fast as you can here. It's amazing. You can also order it from amazon.

they call it racquetball


Tuesday.
Thursday.
Eight am.


Last first day of class.
Went to my racquetball activity class to find someone playing in one racquetball court the school has and our professor isn't quite sure if he is teaching our class or how to play racquetball.
On the upside, I was out of class by 8.15 am.

One down, two to go.

What's up Doc?

(horrible cartoon reference, i know. sue me.)



One of my favorite blogs to read is That Wife. Jenna is also Mrs. Avocado from Weddingbee and she also happened to marry a Pole whose family grew up close to Krakow---yay for Polish heritage and Europe! Her blog is awesome and frequently updated (unlike mine) and her newest feature is start some challenges for each month-a FOOD challenge, a PHOTOGRAPHY challenge, and a HEALTH challenge. I love this idea!

I've signed up for the health challenge. I need to make an eye appointment for my yearly check-up and then visit my doctor about a mole on my back and one on my arm. My mom had a spot of skin cancer show up on her chest last summer, and I really should went to the doctor then, but between my trip and school starting I just forgot about it. But by the end of January I will have them removed. And, bonus, the mole on my back was visible in my wedding dress and now it will be gone!

On a different note, school starts tomorrow. My last semester ever. I'm taking a World History class, a Comparative Religion course, Portfolio, Writing for Mass Media, Raquetball Activity, and a Psych/Lit course which I'm going to go crazy over. I'm now off to pay for school and buy my books.

May 2.
Four years of college
all wrapped up in one ceremony.


Can you wish for time to slow down and move faster at the same time?

Because I'm done with this:



But I'm going to miss this:

A tour of Buckingham Palace, anyone?



Eeek! I love love love this time period.

(Seriously. I search "Queen Victoria" on etsy. I now own a fabulous pair of earrings and a darling clutch.)

So when I saw this book challenge I knew I had to participate.
The plan is read six books that where either written in this era or about this era.

1. Emma by Jane Austen
2. Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte (I will get through it this time!)
3. Mesmerized by Candence Camp
4. A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libby Bray
5. The Life and Times of Victoria by Dorothy Marshall
6. Vanity Fair by Thackery (I'm going to listen to this one on my iPod. That counts right?)

Wish me luck!
