perspective.

Ugh.

I am just having one of those weeks.  The kind where everything piles on top of you at once.  Throw hormones into the mix and it makes you a miserable person when you really don't want to be.  I feel like my brain can hardly hold what it needs to.  What it wants to.  

Need to:

*finish my 3D assignment

*spend a few hours in the studio working on my pastel

*study for italian

*Read for religion

*Work on a giant math project

*go to a second job interview

*save more money

*be skinnier.

Want to:

*Sleep more

*Work on illustrations for Jessica's children's book.  (she found an interested publisher!)

*get my vender's license so I can do my henna tattoos as a side job over the summer.

*be prettier.

*Go to the movies and have a social life.

*play with my dog

*go to a party 

It feels like a lot to handle.  When I feel like I can't possibly do it all, I think of our new president.  If he can even attempt to fix a country....I think I can manage to do my homework.

Trying to keep everything in perspective.  Deep cleansing breaths.  

Inauguration 2009

Thank you GOD for professors that let students out early to go watch history unfold.

I can't even put into words how I feel about everything I saw today.

I can't even try.  But I couldn't NOT blog on a day like today.

Look how beautiful they are.  

So much hope.  Just SO much hope.  <3

clean slate

So, here I am, back at school again and SO happy to be in my bed under a million blankets. The new semester started up yesterday. I know that it just might kick my ass, but I'm excited either way. I'm excited to be busy again and to just jump into things. I missed my room mate, I missed the dorms, I even missed the shitty dining hall food...which is definitely not so shitty anymore. The school hired a new dining service and we have been eating like Queens.

I'm feeling good about things. The new year alway has this "clean-slate" effect on me. 2008 was by far the most amazing year of my life as of yet...and I want to make 2009 even better. There is a lot of work ahead of me though, whether its school work or its finding a full time job for the summer...I know there are going to be issues but right now I'm trying to just stay positive about it.

I'm also feeling good about all the beautiful boys who seem to keep coming out of the wood work recently. Sam and I have the same horoscope and she read it to me the other day. Apparently this is the year for romance if you're a Scorpio. Well...cross your fingers I guess hahaa.

Till next time...<3
