Oh happy day!

So today was one of those days where you wake and think "today is going to suck". It actually did to for the beginning. But all the bad things of this morning dissolved away when I received some very good news this afternoon. On Friday, I submitted some writing for a pre-professional writers conference we are having here on campus. Today I got an e-mail telling me that my critical essay I wrote on Hamlet received 2nd place!! So now I get to read my essay at a conference full of a bunch of other nerdy english people!!! I am so excited!

Today wasn't so bad after all.

Rain is Beautiful

So there is currently a lovely thunderstorm raging outside. I've never seen this much rain in Rexburg. It makes me happy.

Can you say love?

So this guy is pretty much awesome.





In other news, I have so much homework all the times!!! But somehow I still manage to procrastinate....

I tried out for the musical "She Loves Me." I didn't get in but now I'm thinking that's a blessing in disguise!! Plus I still get to act for my acting class so it's all good. I have five awesome roommates (Mckenzie, Stephenie, Chelsea, Lindsey, and Shantelle). They are all pretty much as wierd as I am. Crazy huh?

Megan lives two floors below me. I like having her around. She really helps in my procrastination efforts! Yesterday we got free frozen custard and french fries with our starving student cards. It was awesome! Especially since it is still really hot! But I'm not complaining. Maybe the snow will be fashionably late this year. There's always dreaming right?

I just finished reading the Golden Compass for a young adult lit class. I kind of wanted to judge it for myself what with all the controversy and stuff. I didn't think I was going to like it at first. It was ok but I really wasn't getting into it. Towards the end I started to connect with Lyra and some of the other characters. It's what made the book come alive for me and I think I will finish the rest of the series before I make a complete judgement.

Hmm what else is there? The Office starts back up soon. That's pretty exciting... Okay that's kind of all I have for now. P.S. You should check out Taylor Swifts "Love Song" on youtube. My whole apartment is addicted to it.

Back from the Dead

Hello all. I am back in the burg, school starts tomorrow, and I decided that it is time to revive the blog! I know you have all missed me out there! I can't believe I haven't been on here since the beginning of June. I was checking out Mary's blog and I was like "woah, a bunch has happened." It will be tough to bring this blog up in coolness level but I think it can be done. I'm trusting you devoted readers!! I am nothing without my fans :)
