So, instead of being a good student, I am updating my LJ. You all know I am a good student and will get the work done.
WOW, a whole week as slipped away without an update. I am sure you are drooling at the mouth to know what has been going on with my week. Well, the school year wrapping up it has been alittle hectic, but manageable. I had a night meeting at work almost every night this week. So my nights were shot. However, Friday was our spring carnival, so I got to sit outside with one of the groups I advise. It was a beautiful day for it! The group and I had a lot of fun. The spring carnival itself was a HUGE hit.
After work I hit the bar with some friends from work. As usual the waitress brought out a huge pitcher of Ice Tea for me. (I finished two by the time we left) Yes, I know I need to cut down on the Ice Tea, but it MUCH better than Soda. So, while we were at the bar, the A/C on the roof caught on fire. We all shuffled out, with our drinks, and waited for the fireman. After they got there and looked everything over, several guys had a slight (this was a waste of our time) look on their faces. I don’t understand it, but people had their camera phones out and were actually filming parts of this. I am sure it will be on U-tube somewhere. So, the bar is fine and we are walked back in and finished out drinks. Its funny that if this had happened at a restaurant you know everyone would be stomping in demanding free food or refunds, but here every just sat back in there seats and went back to their conversations like it had never happened.
I gave in to some other friends and went out last night as well. It happen to be country night at the bar we went out too, so as you can imagine there was line dancing and more ten gallon hats than should be allowed in any bar. I had a good time. It was really laid back and relaxing to just go out and socialize. I hadn’t seen these friends in a long time.
I have one last assignment that is due Tues and I am 90% done with it. Oh the life of a graduate student. Tough…I know. But, I feel like I get more out of this than 100hrs a week in a cubicle. Like I have said before, the money comes when you do something you love.
Gym is still going well. My 9 week weigh in is tomorrow. As long as I average 2lbs loss a week then I am good. My shirts are not tight in the shoulders and loss in the stomach! In the end, I am really proud of the discipline this has taught me.
Ok, now I am heading out to dinner with some new friends. Amy and Lindsey are friends of Kat that I met at her going away party. The messaged me and asked me out to dinner. We are heading up town to Brix. Should be good! I rented a movie and plan to spend the rest of the night in with a glass of wine and the movie on my couch. Sounds soooo good! Tomorrow I will give my soul over to my homework. I need to finished writing and then edit all of it.
