For those unique individuals still hanging around livejournal...
This is my farewell. As of today, I will no longer update this journal. I've had this since freshman year, so it's only fitting that I quit this "college journal" at the end of my college career. It's been fun, sad, frustrating, manic, depressing, and crazy. After this semester I'm cutting ties from things that have hurt me over the past few years and this past year. There is no need to relive anything that nearly killed me. Thanks for the memories, but you can keep them. Maybe they will bring more joy to you than they bring for me. I truly wish you all the very best in life.

You know how something bad happens to you in the morning, and then bad things just keep coming the rest of the day? Yep, I've had one of those days.
#1 Called my mom to ask her if she got my message about medco, only to have her tell me that my dog is dying. I've had this dog since I was in 5th grade. I cried a little.
#2 Lost one of my Reef flip-flops. Grrr.
#3 Had to do laundry.
#4 Forgot to look outside before heading to the laundry room. It's raining. Beautiful.
#5 Got an email from my thesis advisor, with a few surprise things that I needed to add to my thesis (about 5 pages worth of surprises).
#6 Stomach hurts all day.
#7 Forgot to go get laundry. It's still in there as I type this.
#8 Stepped in way too many deep wet puddles in flip-flops. Probably going to get sick.
#9 Lame-ass dinner.
But alas, one must always remember the good parts of one's day.
#1 Finished thesis. Going to print it out tomorrow and have it ready to turn in to the editor by Monday.
#2 Finished my report for Creative Writing yesterday, which means I didn't have to worry about it today.
#3 Got the cutest shoes while shopping at Cato with my Roomie and Rachael.
#4 Dinner wasn't that bad. The spaghetti was actually pretty good.
Mmm, whatever. I still haven't recovered from the play. I still feel like I'm running around with my head cut off. And we watched "The Exorcism of Emily Rose" last night and it got me thinking about religion and mental illness again, which is one aspect of my senior thesis. The way the movie is, I question whether I could be susceptible to possession. I already have two very extreme versions of myself inside my head, so I don't really have room for any more. But it's interesting. I prayed last night that I wouldn't wake up at 3AM. Somehow I know that even if a bad spirit did try to mess with me, that I have a very good one (Corey) on my side. Movies like this make me feel bad for watching them. They make me fear, not God, but the scary parts of religion. Sometimes I feel like I might become possessed just by watching something like this. But that's silly.
Isn't it?

Lots of stuff has been happening. Lots of good stuff. ( But the most recent awesome news is...Collapse )
Semi-annual summation of classes!
01] SCI350 - Conservation Biology. If you'll remember, I skipped out of this same class (SCI150) when I was a sophomore. I knew I would be going into it all nervous, but I also knew that I've grown up and have learned a lot since then. I didn't stress out during the class, I actually understood what Dr. Cash was talking about, and it wasn't bad at all. Dr. Cash is awesome and I'm really excited to have him. He has an intense passion for his field, which always makes things more fun. And there's way cool people in there like Rachael, Thomas and Geoffrey. So it won't be so bad. Save for the work.
02] BUS201 - Principles of Management. I love Dr. Sullivan. She is so energetic and funny. I am one of two seniors in the ginormous class and one of only a handful of girls. But I wasn't worried at all, but I'm a senior, and just because I don't have any friends doesn't mean I can't take anything out of the class. I can tell, though, that we have a lot of dumb freshmen and sophomore boys that are going to disrupt the class. If they could only look at themselves from a distance and see how retarded they act.
03] Convocation - not a class, but I went today. It's weird that exactly four years ago we were all sitting in the seats we passed today. We were the freshmen, looking up at the seniors and thinking, "I'll never make it." I feel so old. And I whooped for my grandfather, which was awesome :)
04] ENG214 - Creative Fiction Writing. Another class with Trevathan. I like him a lot, but he always adds so much crap to his classes. Let's just write, for crying out loud. Shaun Freaking O'Malley is in that class, so that'll be a blast. And there's one really annoying girl (already!) who made a fuss about reading her own work in front of the class. WTF? I think I'm going to write about her for our first assignment. Haha.
And seriously, I have so much WRITING to do this semester. NOT EXCITED. Papers for both science and business, and TWO 2,000-5,000 word papers for creative writing. Good thing all my writing for thesis is done. Sheesh. These classes are going to be rough, which is why I'm putting in my 2 weeks notice tomorrow at work. I need to focus on school, so that, I don't know, I can graduate in the spring. So goodbye NSP! Good riddance!

Write ten statements, intended for different people. Never tell which one is to who; Write the things you've always wanted to tell them.

I'm sleeping in my new bed tonight in Beeson. It's kinda weird, but I like it. I'm anxious for this year to start. It should be a great time, but there's just so much to do. And then, like that, it all ends.

I am in Michigan. The weather is beautiful. I get to sleep in and not have plans and just chill. Exactly what I've wanted all summer. And, when I arrived on Sunday, I had an awesome camera waiting for me. Thanks for everyone's support with that, I really did make the right decision, and I'm so very happy. I can take 600 pictures on one memory card, and if you don't think I'm capable of that, think again :) Examples of my first round to come soon.
