So Thursday I did end up leaving work after only being there for an hour. At least I got one hour in on my timesheet... Jacob and I made teriyaki burgers for dinner... they were delicious... with potatoes au gratin and corn. go us! Then he went to work at 5 and I went home and cleaned some for the cookout and then came back to the apartment and spent a couple hours scrubbing the kitchen & bathroom floors... my knees are still sore. and of course they didn't stay clean for 5 minutes... but oh well.
Friday I worked from 9-1. The smell was gone! Then I came home and fixed myself lunch, and watched TV all afternoon. I love summer :) I made mac n cheese and attempted to make teriyaki chicken sandwiches for dinner, but the buns were moldy... so they turned into teriyaki chicken wraps in tortillas instead :) still good, though!
then after dinner Jacob & I went to Old Navy. I wanted to get a cover-up for my swimsuit for when we go to Holiday World. Turns out they were having an awesome sale :) 50% off the clearance stuff! so I got a dress for Holiday world, and a couple skirts, and a shirt for Jacob. after that we went to the mall and got him a haircut and looked around.
Then we went to Big Lots to see if they had a cheap dining set. We need a table and chairs for the new apartment. They didn't, however. Although I have to tell my funny story here that Jacob hates. We were looking at the kitchen supplies, and someone had left a plastic Hannah Montana fake cell phone on the shelf with the crock pots... I picked it up and pretended to dial Jacob's number. Well at the time he was messing around on his cell phone and not paying attention to me, so I reached into my purse and dialed him on speed dial, put my phone back in my purse, and pretended to dial him on the fake phone. He saw he was getting a call from me, saw me with the Hannah Montana phone to my ear, and just looked at me in awe! He couldn't figure out how I was calling him with the fake phone. It was definitely my favorite moment of the evening, if not our entire relationship. haha then he was mad at tried to dump me in a bin of pillows, but oh well. Totally worth it when I picture his face looking at me and the Hannah Montana phone.
After Big Lots we headed to Bogey's and played a game of mini golf. We were pretty close the whole game, and then going into the last hole Jacob had 63 and I had 64... and I got a hole-in-one on the last hole! And then Jacob got it in 2, so we tied with 65 each :) par was 54... lol
needless to say it was a pretty enjoyable evening. We put in Wolfman when we got home, but I couldn't stay awake and slept through the last 40 minutes or so. I liked what I saw, though! Have to try again some other time.
Yesterday was my cookout! headed home around 1 to help cook & clean. Didn't quite get the red velvet cake finished... got it baked, but didn't ice it. Probably going to do that tonight. But the cake balls were a success! Steven showed up with a huge "Congrats Grad" balloon tied to his belt. He was sad that he didn't get to wear it at his graduation yesterday lol The cookout was a pretty good success, I think. everyone pretty much cleared out around 9. Then later I met up with Jacob and the fam at BAM. Got a Spanish vocabulary book! I'm pumped about that. We watched Alice in Wonderland when we got home. I liked it a lot better than I thought I would.
This morning I was woken up by Jeremy calling and inviting me to breakfast with him and Kim, so I met them for a late breakfast at Cracker Barrel. That was fun. I hardly ever get to see those two!
Now I am being lazy and watching TV, messing around on my computer, and reading. But not all at once. After Jacob gets off work we're headed to my house to make the famous quesadillas for dinner. See if my dad likes my cooking. He was already complaining about black beans being in the recipe... now I know how he's felt all these years cooking for my picky self! C'est la vie.

*yawn*
I had the hardest time getting out of bed this morning. probably shouldn't have started a movie after 10:30 but I really wanted to watch it!
anyway, after work on Friday Jacob & I went to Joann & I got some more supplies for a belated birthday card for my Grandma. I need to post pics of my cards! I will, I promise. Then went home and made the card, while the weather was crazy. There were tornado WARNINGS everywhere! We were supposed to meet at Olive Garden at 4, but the warning didn't end until then, so we met up a little later. It was funny cos when us girls all met up in the parking lot it was sunny, and then immediately started pouring down so we had to run inside! James was our server, which was fun. I had those new crespelle Italian crepes thing. It was pretty good. Not as great as I was expecting, but still good. I didn't have to babysit cos they were staying in due to the weather, so Jacob & I just chilled the rest of the night.
Saturday I was lazy during the day while Jacob was at work, then after he got done we met his parents and Josh at the mall, then had dinner at Cheeseburger, and went to BAM and drove around a bit. Got some more books, of course :)
Sunday Drew, Auchter, and Zach brought by my couch that I have missed so much. It only took them 7 minutes to get it up 3 flights of stairs... crazy. haha then after Jacob got off work we went by ON and he got a new swimsuit and headed home for Lost! We got pizza for dinner. Lost was... I dunno. I mean, it didn't answer everything of course, but I kind of like how it ended? I'm still not sure.
Monday I came in to work for a couple hours cos I had to sign my timesheet anyway. Kendra & I moved all the computers out of the TA offices... it was hard work. Then Jacob & I went to Old Navy again and I exchanged the top of my swimsuit for a bigger one, except that they wouldn't do a straight exchange from the website purchase... so I had to return the one I got online, and buy a new one... which was the exact same top, just a size up, but it was more expensive cos the sale changed :( Oh well. Jacob and I made orange chicken for dinner that day... yum! then THCB, then Applebee's with Luann. 99 cent margarita Mondays!
Tuesday was a very slow day at work. I hardly did anything. But Sally & I talked on facebook for a bit! that was great. talked about the new apartment :) so pumped! After work Jacob & I chilled for a bit, then made lemon cream pasta with chicken for dinner... soooooooooooooooooo delicious! We are becoming quite the cooks! We went for a walk later and went to Blockbuster and got a couple movies. watched 500 Days of Summer finally. I loved it! Oh yeah, and I saw a lightning bug on our walk :) it's officially summer!
Yesterday we went to lunch in Newton w/friends of his from high school, so that was fun. Stopped by the house to say hi but no one was home, besides Sammy the cat :) so I finally got to meet him. We didn't really get along, though. :P Then I had to get fingerprinted for helping out at South, and then GNO f/Jacob at Friday's! Finished laundry after getting a new dryer this weekend, then took Bri to Neil's. Went on another walk last night, then watched Away We Go, hence not being able to get up this morning.
However, looks like I won't be here much longer. They're working on the roof and the smell of burnt rubber is making Deb sick. I'm starting to get dizzy as well. The English department already went home today. It would be nice to get a nap in this afternoon :)
Tonight starts the getting ready for the cookout on Saturday. Dad's making carrot cake balls and German chocolate cake balls... omg! so pumped about those. And I am making a red velvet cake! Everyone likes rainbow chip frosting, right? :)
Countdowns:
2 days until my cookout!
37 days until move-in!

rain, rain, go away!
...and of course I forgot my umbrella today. Oh well, I've only been on one run and it wasn't raining too terribly.
You would think with it being summer and me having nothing to do I would update more often, but apparently I have been keeping busy?
Last Friday after work I went home and ate Los Tres with my parents for dinner, which was delicious of course. After that Mom & I went shopping at Kohl's for Luann's bridal shower, Wal-Mart, and Joann's, which I LOVE! I got some card-making supplies to stock up :) and it was only 9 bucks for everything I got! which I was impressed with. I saved over 10 dollars :) It's always great to save more than you spend. Then I made Luann a card for her shower. My very first card! I am so proud of it :) I took pictures. I will have to upload those later so you all can see how amazing I am. :D After that I convinced the rents to go get ice cream, so we went to the Grandma & Grandpa's ice cream place down the highway. It was my first time and it was delicious! I got orange pineapple; it was amazing. After that headed back to the apartment and used my new organizational supplies from Wal-Mart to clean up. It only took me 2 hours! And it's stayed just as clean the past week, so let's hope I can keep it up :)
Saturday Jacob & I had lunch with our friend Mike at Real. Yes, Mexican two days in a row. That afternoon we headed over to Newton to hang with the fam (minus Kara :( ). We ate dinner at Joe's, which is a delicious Italian place. They showed me around the town some and then we headed to Effingham for more sights, and to see Iron Man 2. It was nice since I fell asleep the first time, and the film was messed up, so this time filled in some of the blanks :)
Sunday was Luann's bridal shower at Chan's lakehouse. I had never been out there before; it's pretty snazzy. It was a small, quiet affair with lots of lady talk mostly. It was also her 3rd shower so I think that's ok :) The moms seemed impressed with my card, so I was happy! After Jacob got off work we did some grocery shopping and cleaned out the fridge... threw away 5 trashbags' worth of stuff! It was mighty gross. That night I also got a text from Sally in Berlin that she got us an apartment! We move in in July. I am so pumped!
Monday I had THCB again. We got out the folders for the 2nd concert, too, and it's FULL of Disney stuff :) and the Wizard of Oz, of course. I can't wait!
Tuesday I worked, and then Max time in the afternoon. after that Jacob & I made quesadillas with this recipe I found... they were the best quesadillas I've ever eaten in my entire life, probably. Definitely need to buy a recipe book & put that one in there :) watched Lost while skyping with Mom and Bri. That was fun, but Sunday we'll all be watching together! In the same room! Can't wait :)
Wednesday I had off. We spent the whole day cleaning. We cleaned out the kitchen counter and the stove and the tub and the bathroom counter... and yes, that took all day. It looks super awesome now. Or at least it does for short periods of time before people put more crap on the clean surfaces... *sigh* We'll have our own apartment soon! And I know Sally & I aren't the cleanest of people but it's still gotta be better than now!
Yesterday I worked. Spent most of the day organizing the library in the conference room. That was a lot of work... so many journals and reference books! And the organization was horrible... so I tried to fix it, but it still doesn't make a lot of sense. Things went mostly wherever they would fit on the shelves... I injured myself too many times readjusting those shelves. After work Jacob & I made chicken teriyaki sandwiches with the George Foreman. They were amazing! And really easy to make, too. I ♥ that grill. Then Jacob had to go to work. I ended up hanging out with Bri and Neil. We got some pizza and watched Year One and some TV. It was nice to hang out with my sissy.
Today is Friday! I only have 30 minutes left of work and then it's the 3.5-day weekend! Dinner tonight is Olive Garden with Mom, Bri, and Grandma. I can't wait to try those new Italian crepes they've been advertising... my stomach just grumbled in agreement. I might be babysitting as well, but they haven't gotten back with me yet. Hope I am, cos grocery money would be sorely appreciated :)
I promise I'll update more often so that they don't end up this long... or I'll at least try :)

Summer :)
That's right folks, I am officially on summer vacation! and have been for over a week now, and have been out of the country and back in it since I last updated... but here I am now.
Finals went pretty well. Spanish was a breeze of course. It was way easier than I thought it was going to be, too, so I was pretty pumped about that.
Wednesday I worked in the office, and then for dinner went to a BUSY Real with Meghan and Kareema for Cinco de Mayo. That was a blast!
Thursday Jacob & I cleaned the bathroom some... it was definitely a team effort, and is definitely not a completed job yet... Then we had a picnic lunch at Deming with Steamboat sandwiches yum :) and we were going to go look at apartments, but they only had one to show us so we just rescheduled. Then it was Max time after school. We played Life, and Max kicked our butts. That evening was the College of Arts & Sciences award night. Kurt & I were the Outstanding Graduating Seniors for the Music and LLL departments, respectively :) and we both graduated Magna Cum Laude! We're practically twins. After that Mom, Dad, Jacob, and I ate at the Bierstube... mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!! And I got a new watch from Mom & Dad... one that wasn't a $6 one from Wal-Mart and will actually last me a few years :) Oh and also, glittery Belle stickers... I was way more pumped about that :) And the bag was white with a blue star on it! Which is two of my favorite things, plus ISU's colors :) My mom truly outdid herself. Then that night Jacob, Clint, & I went to see Iron Man 2 at midnight. That was pretty much an awesome evening.
Friday I worked during the day and had the last showing of the musical at night.
Saturday we headed to Canada! It was only about an 8-hour drive to London, which is an awesome place. I just wish it hadn't been so cold! We got to the hotel around 4 and then headed over the mall on the way downtown. I got some Miss Vickie's sea salt & malt vinegar chips at Dollarama, which were in French & English :) I haven't tried them yet but I brought some from lunch today so we'll see if they're as awesome as I hope they are. It was funny being in the mall, cos there were British spellings everywhere & I loved people's accents. Every time I heard someone say "about" or "out" or "sorry" or something like that I had a hard time not giggling. And they were the friendliest people, too! Every time we walked into a store they'd be like "Hey how's it going?" and it was awesome. I found the Hoosiers DVD in a movie store, which made me happy.
After we left the mall we headed downtown. We ended up parking pretty much as close as we could to the building where the concert was... it was awesome. Then it was a short walk to the diner I scoped out online before we left. We stopped in some shops along the way. There were a lot of cute shops but most of them closed pretty early. We ate at that diner and had "poutine" (it wasn't really poutine, just fries and gravy and shredded cheese, but delicious nonetheless), and delicious milkshakes! Jacob got banana/butterscotch, and I ordered mint chocolate but I just got chocolate. It was still delicious, though.
Then we walked around and ended up finding the park I had scoped out as well. Victoria Park, home of the black squirrels! They were very friendly, in hopes that we would feed them.
Then we ran out of things to do, and it was cold, so we sat in the car awhile while we waited for the doors to open. We saw some people trickling in around 7, so we went in and were one of the first in line. Then it was more standing & waiting once we got let in the venue, but at least we were right up on stage :) Stars were AMAZING!!! Best concert I've ever been to. They played through the new album, then came back & did another set of oldies but goodies :) it was amazing. I even got a rose at the end from the many flowers they had onstage :)
Sunday we had breakfast at the hotel then headed back. We stopped for lunch somewhere in Michigan at a DQ, and had dinner at Chicago's Pizza in Cloverdale, which was delicious... wish we still had the one in TH.
Monday I went into work but Deb had gone home sick, so I worked for an hour then went home & watched Lost the rest of the day :) that night was the first THCB rehearsal of the season :) Felt good to play my piccolo again.
Tuesday Deb was still sick, which meant more Lost, and Jacob & I actually caught up in time to watch that night's episode on TV! We also had more Max time.
Wednesday I finally worked a full day, then that night was laundry and Corner Gas :)
Yesterday was an even more full day... work, then helping out with 5th grade band auditions at Woodrow Wilson (where I got asked if I was a student...), Then cleaned up for 2 hours... then after realizing my feet hurt cos I'd been on them for 12 hours straight, I finally took a break.
Today is Friday! This is the first time all week I've had downtime at work... hence me just now updating. I've been busy organizing and doing other things around here. Now I'm getting sent to the bookstore, so that's all for now!

Finals week!
Finals week is finally here! That much closer to summer!
Last week the musical opened at Rose. Thursday I only had Spanish class, and Jacob & I took care of season 5 of Lost :) then we ate at Straßenfest with my parents, then opening night! After that we got Steak n Shake :)
Friday was my last day of classes as an undergrad! Then I worked, then was the dance showcase which went fairly well. Some of us forgot some of the new formations we changed for the gym, but it went well over all :) and we're finally DONE with Tik Tok! lol then Jacob & I rushed to Dustin and Ashley's wedding, which was beautiful. I was sad we couldn't stay for the reception :( They started serving the food just as we had to leave so I could make it to the musical. *sigh* then I had a fun weekend with Miss Pebbles.
Saturday I went to lunch with Clint at Sonka's for burger & a brew which was good. I'd never had one of their burgers before. I was delightfully impressed. We shared dessert, too. It was epic. Then I rested in the afternoon, and when Jacob got off work we went to Olive Garden for our halfiversary. 6 months! Then to the musical, than afterward Jacob and I saw Hot Tub Time Machine, which was pretty funny.
Yesterday the musical was a matinee, and then I studied the rest of the day.
Today was the 351 exam, which I feel pretty good about. Then I took my sociology exam, but I might retake it because we get two chances and I have a high B right now which I would like to bump up to an A... but maybe the curve will help that, too. Then Jacob and I got Mark Pi's and ate by the fountain, and now I'm at work!
Tonight I think Clint & I are going to Applebee's. That's all I have to do tonight, plus studying for tomorrow and recording my final recording for Spanish. Then it is summer vacation!
1 day until summer :)
5 days until Canada :) (Jacob & I have been warming up for it by watching Corner Gas. Too bad we're not going to Saskatchewan!)

Some of us forgot some of the new formations we changed for the gym, but it went well over all :) and we're finally DONE with Tik Tok! lol then Jacob & I rushed to Dustin and Ashley's wedding, which was beautiful. I was sad we couldn't stay for the reception :( They started serving the food just as we had to leave so I could make it to the musical. *sigh* then I had a fun weekend with Miss Pebbles.
Saturday I went to lunch with Clint at Sonka's for burger & a brew which was good. I'd never had one of their burgers before. I was delightfully impressed. We shared dessert, too. It was epic. Then I rested in the afternoon, and when Jacob got off work we went to Olive Garden for our halfiversary. 6 months! Then to the musical, than afterward Jacob and I saw Hot Tub Time Machine, which was pretty funny.
Yesterday the musical was a matinee, and then I studied the rest of the day.
Today was the 351 exam, which I feel pretty good about. Then I took my sociology exam, but I might retake it because we get two chances and I have a high B right now which I would like to bump up to an A... but maybe the curve will help that, too. Then Jacob and I got Mark Pi's and ate by the fountain, and now I'm at work!
Tonight I think Clint & I are going to Applebee's. That's all I have to do tonight, plus studying for tomorrow and recording my final recording for Spanish. Then it is summer vacation!
1 day until summer :)
5 days until Canada :) (Jacob & I have been warming up for it by watching Corner Gas. Too bad we're not going to Saskatchewan!)
