Yep, I'm back in school...
Sometimes I feel a bit reminiscent, and other times I just don't give a fuck. I go off on a little, (or occasionally HUGE), rampage when needed to get shit out of my system and then usually I'm fine for a while. There are things that happen every-so-often that make me go absolutely fucking psycho every single time and it gets really fucking old (and SERIOUSLY needs to be discussed). But for the most part I tend to be a well collected and fairly calm individual.
On another note, I am fucking in love with this weather! It's January 11th for Christ's sake and it's warm and raining! How fucking fantastic is that?! I am wishing and hoping that it lasts through my birthday! Tomorrow is supposed to be even warmer than today and I've got no complaints on that.
I'm going to be turning officially OLD in a couple weeks and in a way it makes me sad, I feel as though I've accomplished absolutely NOTHING over the last 27 years. I'm STILL in college, I still live in Ludington and I still am staying with my dad. FUCK! If that doesn't make me one of the most pathetic people on the fucking planet. Granted, I am TRYING to better myself by being in school and I do only have this last semester of classes, then an internship, but shit!, I still live with my parents! I've worked at the same freaking grocery store for 11 fucking years... OI VAY! I can't wait to get a real job. The more veins I touch the more geeked I get to poke them and get started on my fucking career. I will be a very sad girl if the Cancer & Blood Center doesn't want to hire me... (*crosses fingers*). All I want is a good job that pays decently and wants to give me health insurance :) Is that really asking too much after 9 years of college?
My friend Theresa, (we roomed together for 3 years at GVSU), is getting married the coming fall in Napa Valley and has invited me and Sonj to come along and enjoy the gorgeous view and her fantastic dress. She's reserving a winery estate for guests to stay at and we'll be doing some fabulous wine and cheese tasting the day before her wedding. We'll also be taking in a few hot air balloon rides to aid us in seeing all the beautiful sights, I'm really excited to go there, I've never been out west before and I could DEFINITELY go for some wine tasting and hot air ballooning! God, I'm such a girl!
I've been giving my grad celebration a lot of thought lately as a means to encourage myself to actually get my ass out of bed and go to class. I've decided that since I can't go to New Orleans anymore that I'll bring New Orleans to me. I'm going to do my damnedest to have a cajun crawfish boil, complete with gumbo, jambalaya and mardi gras beads. I am hoping that I can pull this off cause it won't be crawfish season in June and they're DAMN expensive to have shipped up, but I told my dad that's what I want and he says that I'll have it. We'll just see what he says when he sees the bill... I may not wind up with the crawfish, $110 for 40lbs, which will only feed 10-12 people, Hmmm, I can't imaging that too many people are going to go crazy about trying those little guys, but still, we shall see.
Ok, now that I've spent forever rambling and not having any real purpose to anything I'm saying, I think I'll cut this off before it gets too painful for you guys to read.
