I woke up on Saturday and Nick and I did the usual. We went to Simpson to get breakfast. But this time it was packed. It was crazy busy and definitely not relaxing and quiet like it normally is. I still didn't have any homework because I still had zero information for my group project paper. Ugh. I attempted to outline, but at 1:30 I had to go see Brittany and sorority crew. We walked downtown to city hall. There was going to be the annual mardi gras parade. It's not a New Orleans, or Louisiana type one for that matter. But they try as hard as they can. And most don't know any better, but I'm not a fan. Anyway, we were volunteering as crowd controllers. So we got to wear these bright bright orange tshirts. They were XL's too. so lol, I got to wear it over my big puffy jacket. I was a site to see. I looked gigantic. Lol. But I was still cold! And I bundled up this year and brought handwarmers. And those are very nice. So the parade was like 25 minutes and it was cold. And kids forget that they are vehicles and still they want to like run out to them. We cleaned up a little aftewards and the hiked back up to campus. I met up with Nick and ate some lunch at the Marche. Later I took a shower and had a little dinner. Oh and we watched Role Models, which was hilarious. It's our type of movie though. Then I went to meet up with Sophie, Courtney, um Emily, Sumeera, (sorority ladies) and we were driven down by Brittany to Pike, for a party! Yay. It was a lot a lot of fun. My 2nd frat party. I met Nick around 12:30 I guess and we walked back to our dorms. He ordered a pizza because he owed me much money. We ate and I fell asleep to the tv. 11:59PM

On Friday I slept in till about 9ish. I got up and started laundry and then got ready for the day. I had a tiny bit of homework that I could do, but otherwise not that much. I did outline a chapter for Marketing. I figured I should start on my studying since I am waiting for my group project information. And I can't work on that, unless I have it. Which I don't. So I got a bagel for lunch. Then Nick came home and he wanted to do work so I outlined more. I can't recall what we did for dinner though. I might have had some left over spaghetti. Then we got into the car and went to Price Chopper because I went through all of my ointment for my spots, because I have so many. I got more of that and some selsun blue, because I'm sure I'll finish that before I get the chance to go back. Then we went to Converse and saw some of Colin's friends: Eddy, Amy, Darby, and David showed up later. We hung out there and then went to a party downtown. Nick and I left kinda early and we made rice a roni before going to sleep. 11:59PM

I got up after having some crazy dreams. I always dream that my teeth like are paper thin and just like fall out and crack. And it's soo gross feeling. I swear it's real. Those are always so weird. Today I had 120 where we got to critique our course/teacher and omg, I talked in class. Because I had gotten so angry about his teaching styles and how we essentially have to bribe our way to get an A in the class that I made a comment. I didn't speak my mind exactly, because I'm always worried that until I get a grade, I'll jeopardize myself. But I talked in class. That's a milestone. I almost talked in Accounting, which was next. How about that. Accounting is a comfortable class though. It's weird. So I could and well have. Then my Finance class was canceled so I ate by myself. Aww. Nick went ahead of me. :( I killed time and ran into Max and he told me about an internship. Hm! Then I had Marketing, and we got out 30 minutes early. Yay! I walked home and then did some study guide preparing for my Marketing exam next week. Then I had some left over spaghetti and watched some tvs. I'm going to bed later tonight, but I don't have class. 11:16PM

I got up and went to PE. We walked hard. Actually, I didn't that hard lol. I wasn't feeling so well. After I selsun blue-d myself and showered. I didn't have any homework to work on before class, so that was nice. I went to 173 and we learned new stuff. I got lunch at the Marche, the same thing as Monday. But it felt like just the day before. I did what little 173 homework I had and Nick and I took a trip to Nick's house for a tiny bit. Then for dinner I made spaghetti. But some stupid kid was using a some pot on the largest burner, and so I had a pot that was too big for the burner. And it took forever for the water to boil. I got fed up and it wasn't cooked all the way. It's tolerable though. I watched some tv and went to sleep exactly at 11. Which is awesome lol. 11:12PM

I'm so itchy. And I found a spot that's not ringworm, because I put shampoo on it and it burned. Ouchies. I got ready for classes. It was a very good day today. First I had 120 and we finished the movie Glory, the one I've seen before. Then I went to Accounting and felt sleepy. But I go to Finance and turns out we won't have class! Yay! And my Marketing class was canceled. Yay! What a nice break. I was really looking forward to that. Four classes in a row is just too much. 6 hours with no break. So Nick and I went to the Davis Center for lunch. We haven't been on a lunch date all semester it seems. I got New World and then we got Ben and Jerry's for dessert hehe. I went back to the dorm and did what homework I had. At 5:30 I went back to main campus to meet up with my 120 group to work on our project. After I went to the Davis Center to try out their so called "king cake" it was a joke. They said they put a cherry in it. I never found it. And the lady said they always do it. I was like no, babies, and she's like we couldn't do that so then explained how popular cherries are too. Nope sorry. And it wasn't regular icing, it was cream cheese, because putting it in the middle would have been too much trouble and or messy. What?? That's like a for real flavor. Anyway it tasted dry too. Oh wells. I got dinner at Simpson Store, some soup. And now the tv is on and I'm blogging. I'm still itchy. 9:57PM

This morning I got up fairly easily and went to PE. I had to wear that stupid heart monitor and now I think that is how I got the ringworm. The only way it works is if the little reader area is wet with either water or sweat. And we're suppose to clean them off after, but who says the person before did it? Maybe they didn't. I'm going to talk to her next time and say I don't want to wear that. I need to heal. I'll do it another way. Show her the spots to scare her. I came back and then did a 20 minute treatment deal with selson blue on me. And so today was the first day I was crazy itchy. And I've got a bunch of little dots. I could try to count, but no way. There's too much. So I studied more for my 173 exam and then went to take it. I think I pulled it off alright. We'll see. I hope he grades stuff quickly. I'm not really sure how long it'll take to get back. I got lunch at the Marche and came back to do a little 173 reading for homework. And that was all I had. Cool. I dragged Nick to the Marche for dinner and then we got back in time for House and Heroes. I stayed up late to watch Jon and Kate because they got 2 adorable puppies!! I never never thought they'd get them. And the puppies are German Shepherds. I was kinda surprised by that, but had a feeling they would get something big and sturdy that would handle all those kids. So a boy and a girl, and they are too cute. 4:28PM

Yeah I'm slowly catching up. Sunday I started out the same way as I always do. I got up around 10, showered, made some waffles at Simpson for breakfast. I then came back to the dorm and then studied for my 173 class for hours and hours. I got to make a cheat sheet too. I met up with Sophie around 5:45 and we went to Brennan's for some dinner. I ended up getting cheese sticks because I wasn't feeling so great. Then we had our sorority meeting and it was quite good. Can't say though! I got a ride home and it was snowing like crazy. But I guess in the end we got like 6 or so inches. I missed most of Amazing Race but that's ok. I'll watch it online. 11:36PM

I slept in till around 10. I showered and then went to brunch with Nick at Simpson. I got some french toast. Then we went to his dads house so he could exchanged some guitars. Then we went to Circuit City to see what they had for liquidation-ness. For closing in 9 days the percentages off really aren't that high, only 30-60% off. And what's funny is that they are using the exact same signs Linens N Things used when they were closing out. I found it amusing. Then apparently his mom saw us driving around and she called. And then we came back to the dorm. I didn't have any homework to work on this day so I just played some Lego video games while Nick worked. Eventually we got sandwiches at Simpson Store and then watched Slumdog Millionaire. Yep I watched it again. And we watched some good TLC shows after that. 11:59PM

Friday! I slept in till about 8:30/9. I did my laundry and showered. I did a lot of 180 homework that I wouldn't have to worry about for the weekend and I also got lunch with Nick at Alice's. I got a tasty buttered bagel. Mmm. At 3:20 I took the bus to the health services to get my spots looked at. I've had these like coin sized raised spots on my torso for about 5 weeks now. And there's like 50 of them. I tried cortisone but that didn't really do anything. So Nick pushed me to go to the doctor, so I finally went. Turns out, I've got a ringworm like fungus on me. Wonderful. I think it was caused by my PE class, I'd sweat and then it'd just get out of control because it didn't dry properly and it was moist and hot under my shirt. Wonderful. But at least I know what I can get now to get rid of these things. I relaxed when I got home and also watched some tv that I missed over the past two weeks due to my excessive busyness. Nick finally got back from an employee dinner thing and we went to Price Chopper to get some cream for me. I'm going to be using selson blue shampoo and lotrimin for my spots. Then Nick dropped me off at Stephanie's house. Jordan was already there. We drove downtown and went to the Daily Planet, restaurant/bar. But we just went to the bar. It was a nice little place. I had eaten there once before during Freshman year when I went with Emily and others, for her birthday. We got a drink and then went to see Slumdog Millionaire. It was really really good. They dropped me off and then I went to sleep sometime later. 11:59PM

The internet worked today, but of course not my website. So I'm making up for this day. I think I'm convinced now to move to a free site after the issues I've had with this website this year. Too much downtime. Anyway I had to meet my Management group before class to sign an evaluation review thing. In Management we watched Glory. I spent the whole class trying to figure out when I've seen that before. I decided it must have been in my 11th grade American history class. Then I had Accounting where I had a crazy bad headache, and I decided it was caused by stress. I then had Finance and continued to feel miserable. And finally Marketing. We were suppose to give a presentation, hence my stress and headache. But, my group didn't go because we ran out of time! Yay! And magically the headache went away. Good. After class I went to New World Tortilla for some lunch. I met Nick when he got out of work and we walked back to the dorms. I did a little homework but then rushed off to the Davis Center at 6:30. We had a sorority Visions thing. It was on eating disorders again, so I got a double dose of that. We watched the movie Thin and had a little discussion. I got a ride home and then relaxed for the rest of the night. 11:59PM

My internet was done from like 5 on last night. So I'm blogging this day to catch up now. So I got up around 7:20 and that was wonderful compared to yesterday when I woke up at 5. I had walking and we tried a 13 minutes mile of walking quickly. I was like 5th to finish out of our 22 and I missed it by 48 seconds. Ugh. Only 1 person made it under that. It's much harder than you think. But I'm going to wear a watch next time to keep better track of myself. So I got back and cleaned up. I did some homework and then was off to 173. I stopped by my Management professor's office to turn in my take home essays. He was shocked it was in so early lol. Ok. We had a group quiz, yay. It was fine. Then I went to the Marche and got some stuffed shells for lunch. I then had a headache but I still did a lot of work. Later than night I got some bagel bites from Simpson Store and then went to my panhellenic meeting. We talked about eating disorders as a program night. I came back and that was it for my day. 10:54PM

Today I tried to wake up at 5am. I snoozed till 5:30 and finally yanked myself out of bed. I started off really slow today but got ready anyway. I did some last minute studying and then walked over to my classroom at 7:30. Normally I have class at 10, but today we had an exam from 8-11:15. It was intense because we had to do it in our groups and then we (2 sections, so like 50 kids) could collaborate together and talk about the answers. That included 100 multiple choice and true/false questions. Two hours later we were done with that part. Then I had an essay to do. I got the turned in and left. I went to the Atrium and ate a blueberry muffin and had some coffee to help wake me up. I then had Accounting and Finance. I got a 9/10 on the homework, yay! And finally Marketing. We got out of that one 15 minutes early, yay! I got lunch/dinner at New World Tortilla before 4 and came back to my room. I took a short break by playing Lego Batman and then began to work on my Management take home essay. No it's still not over!! And I'm taking another break now because I'm exhausted, but I need to finish it so I can turn it in tomorrow when I got back to Kalkin, aka the business building, aka where I live now. But now it's time to get back to this and then work on Accounting, probably, and then quit for Nip/Tuck and then go right to sleep after that. 5:56PM

Once again I slept in till just before 11. Today was also a holiday, so no classes! Yay! Instead I got to spend my entire day studying for my Management exam. I studied soo much. Around 4 Nick and I went to the Marche for some lunch/really early dinner. Once I was back I got back to studying. Later at night we watched House and Heroes. I studied even more after he left and then at midnight watched Jon and Kate Plus 8. They are really having wonderful episodes now that they've moved into their new house. The little kids were painting some walls, and it was adorable. And in the next episode they are getting 2 puppies!! I got soo excited for them when I saw that. I never thought they would. And now there's going to be 2! I can't wait till next week. After the show I finished up studying and went to sleep. 5:51PM

I was even lazier today. Nick and I slept till about 11. Once we got up we cleaned up and went to Simpson for some breakfast. I got a lot of french toast. We then did some of our homework. Sometime later we went to see He's Just Not That Into You. It was such a cute movie. We enjoyed it. After we stopped at Hannaford's to get some jambalaya mix and some other ingredients. We came back to the dorm and made our dinner. I was pretty hungry but by the end of it, we still had leftovers. That's pretty good. We watched some tv and then around 10 we went to McDonalds so that I could get a sundae. Hehehe. We then went to the Davis Center and met up with Colin and Hillary. We drove down to Colin's apartment and hung out there till about 1 in the morning. 6:58PM

Today was a lazy day. Nick went to get some food but ended up going to get me flowers! It was such a nice surprise. Eventually we got out and went to Burger King. I wanted to try those new Burger Shots. It actually reminded me of a McDonalds burger, similar buns. Good, but I won't get it again when I can get a whole burger for a dollar, with double the meat actually. Versus those 2 burger shots for 1.39. Yeah. We came back and watched some tv shows. We got some snackies at Simpson Store. We watched our nightly tv shows and it was a nice lazy day. 11:26PM

We went to Waterman so that he could get a computer. Came back to the dorm to do a little more work. We got dinner at Simpson Store and then went downtown for some errands. We came back for a little bit and then walked to Stephanie's house for a Valentine's Day party. It was a lot of fun. We came back around 1:30. 11:21PM

And today I got up and showered. I walked with Nick to class. I started out with Management. Lately we've been focusing on our stupid exam. They are proposing that we do a group exam,which sure whatever is fine, and another half be individual take home. But they are wasting soo much time. And hello, we have a group project due soon and instead you're just thinking about the exam and getting absolutely nowhere. I mean we'll see what happens, but we decided to outline chapters and that's just such a waste of time. I did it, but if I hadn't I would have been a "free loader." You get screwed anyway you go. Then I had Accounting. We got our exam back. I did fair. lol. I'm not worried. Now I know what to expect. Then I had Finance. Long. And finally Marketing, long as well. I got lunch at New World Tortilla. mmm. I met Nick after work and then I worked on homework for a little. I showered and then Brittany picked us up for our last recruitment night. I got back and had a headache so I just watched tv with Nick for the rest of the night. My week is done. Yay. 11:36PM

Ah so let me tell you about this day. I got up relatively easy for my PE class. We did this competition thing. Where one team took tennis balls from the other team to fill up their basket. And my team took theirs for ours. And sooo we had to walk as fast as possible. I got soo worn out. My heart rate got up to like 184, I had a monitor on. I was going so fast. And normally I have trouble keeping it up at like 130 lol. And I got a 7/7 on my quiz, yay. I came back to the dorm, showered, and then did some homework. I went to the Atrium before class for a tasty tasty grilled cheese. It was very good. Maybe I'll go more often, if they have good food on Monday's and Wednesday's. I had 173 and it was long. Then I took the bus home and worked on my homework yay. That night I was driven to the Davis Center by Brittany and I went to the Panhellenic meeting and then rushed over to our recruitment. I met Nick afterwards and we walked back to the dorm. 11:27PM

I got up as my alarm went off today with no snoozes. Good start. I showered and walked to class with Nick. I had Management first and we watched a Kill Bill clip. Next I had Accounting and we had an exam. First one! It was tough, but I might have pulled it off. I can't tell. I don't think he realized that class was up, so I turned my test in and he was like urging everyone to do one more problem. I had allocated my time and finished it, just in case he decided to include it. And he did. And I went to my next class Finance, and other Accounting people came late. Hah. Finance was fine, it was the same as Accounting. And finally Marketing. I've got a group project in there and someone quit our group to be with their friend. And she wasn't even going to tell us. We had to like force it out of her. Geez. I then got lunch at New World Tortilla, met up with Nick, and then got some Ben and Jerry's. Oh! It was sprinkling today! Whoa! Anyway I then did my Accounting reading and then went to the library to meet with my Marketing group. We decided on some ads and divided up the work. I walked back to the dorm and watched Nip/Tuck. Now I've got to hit the sack because I've got walking in the morning. 11:14PM

Yay! Caught up to today. I started out with PE. It was quite hard to wake up. We had a quiz in there. It was hard for a PE class, but really not that bad. After I came back and showered and did some homework. I took the bus to 173. It was a long long class. After I walked to the Marche for some delicious lasagna. It was a wonderful surprise. That's probably one of the top 3 best meals here. I brought it back to my room, by bus, so it was still warm lol. It was just yummy. I then studied for Accounting for the rest of the day. At night Nick and I got dinner at the Marche, but I was still full from the lasagna. Even later I had our first recruitment night. We had some ice cream and just talked. It was nice and relaxing. I came back kinda late and missed Heroes. Oh well. I'm going to stay up for my Jon and Kate Plus 8 episode. Yay. 11:15PM

Later in the afternoon we went to the UMall, just to get out. We walked around in a few stores, but left not much after lol. We got back and ate dinner at the Marche.

I get so behind on blogging, it takes me a while to get back into the swing of things. Nevertheless, this day I slept in till 9:30. I showered and then did a lot of homework. I got a bagel after I had finished laundry and then I met with my 120 group to work on our group project. I came back to the dorm and waited for Nick. We ate at the Marche for dinner. Nick went downtown and Stephanie came over to see Jordan. And then they came to my room for a little bit. For the night we got a ride downtown to a house party. We stayed there for a little bit and then met up with Luke at Red Square, a bar! It was my first Burlington bar. Kind of an older crowd, aka, not college students. But I don't care, it was neat. Then we went back to another house party and to the same one we were at earlier. I had a good time even though we did a lot of walking. I met up with Nick later and we went back to campus together. 11:59PM

I was having a big website issues these past few days. I couldn't even log in. But it's fixed and back up and running. Yay. So today I woke up with a nasty headache. By the way, I've been sick for the past few days. A cold. Anyway I had my crazy four classes in a row, 120, 162, 180, and 155. That's Management, Accounting, Finance, and Marketing. It was a long long day. And after I got lunch at New World Tortilla and walked home with Nick. I did what homework I could since I was feeling so bad. We got sandwiches before tv and now we are watching tv. I can't wait to sleep in tomorrow. 10:04PM

Yesterday I was still sick but walked for PE and had a heart rate of 133. lol. I showered and then worked on my 120 study guide. I went to 173 and had my first quiz of the semester. It was hard, but I think I figured things out. I walked to the Marche and got some nasty chicken noodle soup. It was like water with a layer of oil. Yuck. I came back to the dorm and worked extremely hard on my 120 outlines for the rest of the night. Nick and I watched Lost once it came home and maybe another show after that. Then I went to sleep kinda early. 10:06PM

I woke up at 11 today. I haven't slept in that late in quite some time. I showered and played my Lego games, and I did accounting, so all is well. Nick and I got dinner at the Marche. An early dinner though. Then we did more homework and then it was time for the super bowl. I went for Pittsburgh, just because. I don't know why lol. But they won! It was a pretty good game too. Sadly the commercials weren't that good though. I'm excited for the Office episode coming up next. It's going to make me miss my bed time, but it looks funny. 10:18PM
