A spoonful of Peanut Butter...

helps the Accounting work get done much more efficiently. 


I've got two tests next week. One on Monday one on Tuesday. Intermediate Accounting and Cost Accounting. I do enjoy Accounting. So I can't complain much. My professors are quite possibly the best ones that I have had in my college career. 


Last night I got a little down because my friends invited me to go to out with them and their significant others. Now, I'm all for going out and having a fun time. But I didn't really feel like going to eat and being the only single one in the group of 4 couples. C'est la vie. Then around 11 they went out to the bar that's not overrun with the Greeks. If I had known that my friend was going to spend well over 150 bucks on drinks for everyone but him I probably would have gone. However, instead I opted to not be the awkward 7th wheel and stayed in while reading one of the books I have to write a review on. Who knew conspiracy books about the government could be so... boring? Not what I was expecting. Nevertheless, tonight I will embarking to their houses to sit around and do fun random things. 


I ate an entire thing of Pringles today while watching Auburn's basketball game... what the heck? Oh well. They were good and I'll walk them off next week when I have to walk all over class. 


My life's not that interesting, I'm such a dull college kid. Oh well.

Sporadic Posting

This semester my goal is to get ahead on my classes so that I am not overwhelmed when my test come around. So far, I'm doing pretty well. Every Wednesday I'm going to the library, possibly going to start going every Monday night as well.

I'm trying not to get too down about anything that happens in my life. All of the friends that I hang out with on a normal basis are now dating people. So, if I don't want to be a 7th wheel I am stuck sitting around. Thankfully it gives me more time to work on school. Which really helps me a lot. Sadly, I don't see this situation letting up anytime soon. Seeing as the only person I am romantically interested in is stationed Germany and will be there for 6 more long months, I'm probably going to stay being the 7th wheel for a while.

My classes seem to be going very well. I definitely enjoy my Income Tax class and surprisingly my Financial Markets class is highly interesting. We talk about the stock market and banking industry all class so I'm finding it intriguing. I'm also looking into joining a club/organization thing this semester "Women in Business" should be quite wonderful.

I can't really complain about my life at the moment. It seems to be going pretty smoothly. I'm still a bit on the sad side over the events that happened in December however, I'm trying to work past them and keep on keeping on and getting stronger everyday and happier at that.

I've been immersing myself back in Harry Potter books and my lovely wizard rock. I think it's partly because the series is ending this year and I just won't know what to do. And the fact that I just realized how much I hadn't listened to the amazing HP centered music in a very long time.

I'm taking time to do more things for myself, and I think that's what I really needed to be honest. I definitely needed it.

Spring 2011

The entire month of December was just a big ball of depression. So many things hit me all at once it was hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Thankfully it is over and I am trying my best to push forward into this semester with a new attitude and hopefully come out better come May.

This morning I woke up bright and early in order to go speak with my advisor to try and get a class switched and me into another one. In doing so I now have a very messed up schedule, but that's okay. No harm done. After that I went and acquired my books I will need this semester. The higher I get into education the smaller the books and the bigger the bill. I hate that.

Now I am here, waiting until I go to class at 1230. Income Tax. That's going to be a fun class, I'm excited. Finally doing something that I actually want to do in my life. Talk about exciting. :) After that I have no class until 330. Yeah, I know what a weird schedule. Thankfully I only have on class on Fridays so that means if I need/want to I can hightail it out of here super fast those days and get home.

Well, now it looks like I need to find all my binders and paper and pencils and calculators. It's gonna be a long 5 months, but let's go. I'm ready.

Happy Spring 2011, y'all!!!

Finals... day two

I spent the entire day at home, the visitation and funeral was at 1 pm. It was hard, it's still hard. I'm trying to work through it. Thankfully, one of my professors is letting me take a final I was supposed to have tomorrow on Wednesday instead. I get to take it in his office and an extra day to study. Thank God. I'm so overwhelmed with everything and I can't imagine studying for two finals tonight. I'm already about ready to crash. Which I think I'm about to go to sleep, so I can wake up early and study some more for my final that is at noon...

Happy finals season.

Finals... day one.

Finals weeks is officially here. Three tests stand in the way of me and sweet sweet freedom. I'm having to study pretty hardcore today for my two test that are Tuesday. I'm driving home tomorrow morning for my great grandmothers funeral. It still fully hasn't hit me yet. I think it will when I get there and my cousin and I start talking face to face. He's the only one I would talk to growing up that was not my parents. We just understand each other and what we are thinking. Tomorrow it becomes real and tomorrow is going to be a very hard day. And long. I'm leaving here by 730 AM. 

Last night we (Auburn University) won the SEC Conference Championships. It was amazing. Words can't express how phenomenal Toomer's Corner was. If you don't know what Toomer's Corner is, the tradition states that with any Auburn victory we go and roll the Oak trees that are on the corner across from Toomer's drug store downtown. There's a long story behind it, I could tell you but I'm sure no one cares. Well we got to Toomer's and it was insane I will try and upload a picture or two at the end of this post. A guy who has apparently been crushing on me super hard for a while now miraculously found us and right before we parted ways kissed me under a rolled Toomer's corner. It was highly unexpected, and weird. Haha. But hey, we just got told we were going to the National Championship Game... EMOTIONS WERE HIGH! haha. 

Now, I'm studying for a Marketing final and a Management final. Both are Tuesday. I will probably die. I emailed my Management professor and told him about my situation and asked if I could somehow take my final on Wednesday. I don't know if it will work or not. But it was worth a shot and at least I tried. The test won't be too hard, I'm not that worried if I can't move it, but I would like to. 

I'm just very overwhelmed by everything and finals is just adding to the stress of it all. Time to get back to the grind... marketing here I come.
