Well it is officially spring and it is officially wet. my feet are soaked... I stepped in a puddle on a run for work :(
so last week was pretty busy. My recital went really well! I spent Monday night making the cake balls and snickerdoodles with Jacob. I think they were also a success :) after my recital we went to Applebee's.
Wednesday was St. Paddy's Day aka my 1/2 birthday :) I was supposed to run the Japanese movie for LLL but there was some confusion on the dates and Nicole and I were the only ones there after 20 minutes, so we just left. I met Luann at Coffee Grounds for St. Patricking. The combos were playing, but we went to the Bally because she got a Blarney stone. We waited 2 hours for her to get her prize! She won 3 free tanning sessions. Then we headed to Sonka's which wasn't as packed as I thought it would be, and there weren't many people there we knew, but we shared some Irish nachos at the bar which were delicious.
Friday night Amy and I studied for Spanish and ended up talking until it was time to pick Jacob up for work at 12:30 lol it was a fun evening. I found out the TA stipend is a lot higher than I expected so Jacob and I went to sns to celebrate kind of :)
Saturday I was pretty lazy but tried to get some homework done. I got more done while babysitting that night. They were pretty good. They ended up losing talking to/touching each other privileges but they were asleep by 11:30 so I didn't really mind :)
Sunday/yesterday Jacob didn't have to work so that was nice. I studied a lot for my listening quiz in 351 though.
Today was the listening quiz and I think it went pretty well. I just need to work more on my paper... I am going to stick it out through these last 6 weeks cos I have all summer to not do homework. I've decided I'm going to be better. Luckily I already have most of my hw for tomorrow done.
My granny had another stroke last week and she's in the hospital. This one was the worst yet. She's apparently talking again though and recognizing people so I'm really happy about that.
April is going to be a crazy month for me... between my dance performance for Fusion and Rose's musical and playing in Kevin's recital and being the interim president of Phi Sigma Iota! Oh and also getting ready to wrap up the semester. but then I'm free all summer! cannot wait! and then I start up again in the fall... but it's all Spanish :) can't wait!

no more spring break :(
So Wednesday was probably the best day of spring break... it was BEAUTIFUL outside. Jacob and I had lunch at Fazoli's with my grandparents then we went to Old Navy since Jacob had almost $60 in gift cards. So he got some spring clothes, then we went to Deming and walked around in the SUN!!! it was great. then we sat on a bench swing by the playground for about an hour and dogwatched lol it was fun. then dinner with Mom at Cheeseburger on the patio! best Wednesday EVER
Thursday we hung out with Pebbles for a bit. watched Beverly Hills Chihuahua :) then bowled with Grandma and Amelia. I got a 57, but then I got a 104!!! I wish I could capitalize numbers to show my excitement about this.
Friday Jacob and I went to circle centre and did some window shopping, then ate at the Spaghetti Factory with angry/scary basketball fans. but we got to sit in awesome seats! they were like comfortable thrones... I love that place. Then we went to Metropolis.
Saturday I had the GRE... I had to get up at 6:15! I haven't seen 6:15 in months, I'm sure. Then lunch with Mom and Jacob at Friday's and a lengthy search for a recital dress, but eventually got one at Kohl's, and it was the first I tried on! lol and Mom bought me matching earrings and a necklace to go with it. I am pretty excited. Then Jacob went to work and I had a concert at Rose. It was a lot of waiting in the band room.
Sunday I slept til one... but to be fair, with the time change it was really only noon :) Jacob and I went grocery shopping and we set the kitchen on fire cooking lunch. Ok that may be an exaggeration. Then Jacob had to work and I practiced for my recital, and went home and made copies of my music to avoid page turns, and had my favorite meal for second dinner. with fudge for dessert!
and today is Monday and I'm at work right now. going to my dress rehearsal for my recital in a bit...
Deb said I could still work in the department this summer, so I am excited about not having to find another job. And she just told me what office and officemate I'll probably have in the fall! I am so excited! Just have to get through these last 7 weeks of school before finals and a summer with no homework! haven't had one of those in a while...

spring break!
spring break is finally here! unfortunately, I am not in Alabama :( there was some drama at the end of the week with lost wallets and canceled cards and found wallets, but still canceled cards, and broken cars, and lack of money... long story short, I'm still in TH :(
I got Bri from Franklin on Friday and we had lunch in Greenwood at Johnny Carino's on the way back, which was good. then Max & I hung out a bit.
Saturday had Sinfonietta dress rehearsal then Jacob's parents and Josh came up & we got Friday's and walked around the mall for a bit, then saw Cop Out, which was HILARIOUS. I LOVED it!
Sunday was the Sinfonietta concert. Went pretty well. After that got Real (at my own FATHER'S suggestion!) with Granny and Grandad. He told me to stop asking if I could order stuff (I figured he would have some say since he was paying, but apparently I can order whatever I want!), so I got two different beers.
Yesterday was sleep in day! and laundry day. and practice day although Pebbles was not a fan of that.
Today was help Dad out at his school day to earn some cash to make up for the $249 I lost out on the hotel I already paid for :( then Jacob and I got KFC and had a picnic at Fairbanks park! then we played on the swings until it started raining so now we're hanging out inside. I see a nap in my future. I had to get up at 8 this morning! I NEVER get up that early! oh well. definitely sleeping in tomorrow!
tomorrow is Wednesday already :( this break is going by waaaaaaaaaaay too quickly :( :( :(

Hello, March!
wow so that was a busy last half of the month...
the orchestra/choir concert went well I think. Afterward we went to Applebee's with my parents/Jacob's parents and Josh.
Friday the 19th I babysat Max and probably spent lots of time at Blockbuster. Oh yeah, and went to Sonka's with Clint and he let me drive the Camaro! That was pretty amazing.
Saturday the 20th I had two lunches. One with the rents at that gyro place that used to be BK, and the 2nd one was watching Clint eat IHOP. then I took an epic nap cos my eyes didn't wanna work. Jacob and I had dinner at Olive Garden and then hung out with Bri and Clint later on.
I spent most of Sunday the 21st in the library.
Last Monday had my first rehearsal with Martha for my recital... we just got through the Rodrigo in 30 minutes lol this is gonna be a fun recital...
Tuesday was fun cos the night before I took out my contact while driving and couldn't find my backups or my glasses so I spent the rest of the week with only my left contact in. I got to talk to Sally on skype for almost an hour Tuesday night! so that was amazing.
Wednesday Jacob was sick :( so he stayed home. We had high school German students from Marshall come in so I talked to them and escorted them a bit at work, and got to hear Sally's voice again cos she talked to them from France :) Had Fusion and our illusions look good! I am excited.
Thursday I did a lot of reading in El amor en los tiempos del cólera but I didn't get it finished before it was due back. I'm going to check it out again on Friday when spring break starts & hopefully finish it during the long drive to/from Alabama.
Friday got there pretty quickly surprisingly. Alumni Band makeup game. We didn't have as huge a turn out as last year but I think it being a Friday and the date getting changed affected that a bit. I was glad we played Jungle Boogie so I could scream, and Chameleon cos it's got that crazy lick in it, and some new ones as well.
Saturday I caught up on a lot of homework and got ahead in some. Jacob and I got Little Caesar's for dinner and watched Arrested Development and movies all weekend mostly. It was nice.
and today is March! Which means it is Jacob's and my 4th monthiversary, which is 1/3 of a year! :D
right now I'm at work. 1st of the month = copy charges, so I was pretty pumped. Also, I got my zune on Friday! so I'm listening to that. Oh yeah and I also finally changed my headlight cos picked Jacob up from work Thursday we got pulled over 1 block away from his apartment lol so I finally got that taken care of, with help from my wonderful father. I'm all scratched on my hand and wrist/arm from it, too haha oh well. C'est la vie. Which, ironically, is what I'm listening to on my zune right now. I miss B*Witched. It's even the remix.
This week = 1st draft of 351 paper due on Friday, and keeping up with other homework until freedom on Friday! and Friday I'm going to pick up Bri and bring her home for the weekend, so I'm pumped about that as well.
