this world is ours - let's make it beautiful

So. I've been really, really busy w/work & school which means I haven't spent any time blogging. I used to be able to blog from work, but I've been swamped while I'm there, and there is so much drama going on. I have been working weird hours that I'm trying to get used to, and my school schedule still doesn't quite make sense to me, yet. But I'm hanging in there.

I submitted my first assignment for Marketing on Sunday. After that I studied a little & took his quiz. I ended up getting a 80% on the quiz(it was really hard, & I always say a low score on the first one is okay, because you're getting an idea of how the rest will be) & I got a 100% on the discussion board problem. I was sweating turning that in, obvious considering I wrote it on the 20th and submitted it the 24th. Ha. Anyways. I haven't been working on Leadership as much as I should. I went to my first Complementary Healthcare lecture on Monday, can you say BORING?! Ugh. But that's alright, it should be easy. I also went to Microbiology Lab yesterday, and got a bunch of homework due Thursday. Ugh, I just can't keep up! I will kick this semester's ass, though.

BREAKING NEWS: This just in; it just started POURING out of nowhere outside, kind of scared me.

Here's a to-do list for the rest of this week:

This is the last week of my winter break. Well, it will start tomorrow. I am basically going to work through the whole thing and get the last long weeks check.  This semester I'm taking two business classes, macroeconomics, a nutrition class, as well as my microbiology lab. My business classes are online and so is my macroeconomics course. the business classes were only supposed to have one or two books a piece, but he just sent an e-mail out, and I now have two more to purchase. Blah. I'll wait until my FA disbursement comes to order those last two. I'm hoping the semester goes smoothly. My senior slump is kicking my butt right now, and I have to work through that. But other than that, I'm welcoming this semester with open arms.

I've been working on a purse w/my mom. I've been so bored just hanging out around my house. I ordered a bunch of books online to read but none of them have showed up. So I probably won't even be able to touch those until spring break. I will post pictures of my purse when I get it finished though. It's a little over halfway finished. :]

My brother's birthday is on Wednesday and we are going to Supercross on Saturday.  That will be the last hurrah before another painful semester. I'm almost done though, and I just keep telling myself that. That's my only hope. Haha. I'm off to watch the rest of the Cardinals game. I'll post more later, I just knew I needed a little bit of an update.

Here's a list of a few things I have to remember right now:

- Find & post my clicker from anatomy on Half.
- Research deposit date for half.com transactions - I've got $291 coming! :]
- Make sure my Chemistry book is shipped out today.
- Clean my room up really good - again.
- Go shopping online/at Target for school supplies. [it's already that time of year, AGAIN!]
- Research textbook prices - get those ordered.

More to come...

Oh, 2010. Please be good to us. :]

Tyler, dad, and I brought in the New Year in Rocky Point this year. :] It was a great time, regardless of how chilly &/or windy it was. Brother & mom brought the dogs up on Friday and we left on Sunday. There were a few hiccups along the way, the truck decided it didn't want to tow the trailer any faster than 35 for about the last hour of the trip. That was exciting. Parking it was a pain because we got there late after the truck wouldn't just DRIVE! :] Tyler lost his wallet at the gas station but my mom happened to see it sitting in the parking lot as they were leaving behind us...Umm...what else? It was just a good trip & a great way to bring in 2010. I'm going to write up some resolutions. But not yet - I'm still working on them. I have decided that it doesn't matter when you write them - before or after 12AM on New Years - you either accomplish them or you don't. :]
