Easter

Hmm.. what can I say about Easter? I went to church for the first time in exactly 1 year, I got in a fight with my mom because I complained about church too much, I ate too many malted milk balls, I played horse in a dress and lost horribly, and I fell asleep watching Lady and the Tramp. I think that pretty much sums it all up.

Busy busy

The end of the semester is fast approaching, and while I am very thankful it is almost over, I find myself wishing I had a little more time to complete all of my final projects. But who am I kidding? I'm mostly glad this semester is almost over!

I'm pretty sure I have an internship at a local advertising agency for the summer and probably into next year, which is great. They only pay minimum wage, which is not great. But hey, you gotta start somewhere. In the end, it will be more worth my while to work for peanuts at an ad agency than make decent money working at a bar.

My parent just got a new hot tub. Its been entertaining for the past week. I'm just waiting for the point when the novelty wears off and they stop using it.

My family has planned a trip to lake Okoboji for the summer (Yes Kyle, it is Okoboji, not Okochobi). Usually I'm not a big lake fan but this one seems ok. It is one of three blue lakes in the world. It was created by a glacier, which left behind a bunch of gravel in the lake bed. The gravel acts like a filter for all the sediment and other crap that usually makes like murky. Supposedly the water in this lake is clear enough to see all the way down to the gravel. It should be interesting.

Catch up

Kyle went out of town this weekend with his frat, and although I do miss him, I must admit it is proving to be much needed. I feel very on top of things right now. I've gotten stuff done that I have been putting off for weeks. I think I might actually make it through this semester!

Tonight I have Relay for Life, which I am both excited about and dreading. Last year it was really fun, and it is always good to raise money for cancer, however, I'm really on a role with all my homework and don't want to break the cycle. Oh well, you gotta do what you gotta do.

On a slightly more exciting note, I went shopping for a dress for Kyle's frat's formal which is next Friday and ended up buying one for $9. Since my dress was so cheap, I decided to treat myself to a new pair of shoes to go with it and another pair just because I like them.

This past week was kind of a nightmare. I was really busy and stressed out and then stupid weird things kept happening to piss me off even more. For example, I finally found an hour to just relax, so I went to my parents house to play with my dogs and watch some Sex in the City on HBO. After only 20min, I got a phone call form the manager of my apartment building saying that someone had left the oven on with something in it and it had smoked out our apartment. He also demanded that I come back immediately to let him in, so he could evaluate the damage. Guess what? I didn't leave shit in the oven. My roommate was trying to melt candle remains out of the bottom of a jar and thought it would be a good idea to put them in the oven and then go to work. I was pissed and so was the manager. Not a good time.
