I don't want to study....but unless I want to fail miserably I must study. I need to go to the library but it's raining and probably very crowded at the library because every other tom dick and harry in this town also has a stressful week of finals ahead of them as well. Stay at home and study you say, well you see the problem with that is that at home there is a tv and an easily accessed computer such as the one I am wasting my time on now. All these things prevent me from studying. *sigh. But there comes a time when I just have to suck it up and do it anyways and get off this darn computer and go pull out my books and study something till my eyeballs fall out. Oh well next weekend it will all be over and well worth the sacrifice. Wish me luck...I will def need it. :)

It's almost over!!!
It's hard to believe the semester is almost over. In 7 days I will have completed my 4th semester at the University of Alabama. Yeah I know, It seems like yesterday I was begging my dad to let me move here. This has been a busy semester, but I am happy to say that I am done with c++ classes for my college career and hopefully FOREVER!!. My finals are next week, I have 2 Wed, 1 Thurs and 1 Fri and then some of my friends from high school are coming down and along with roomie and the 2 others friends from HS that live here we are going to have a drink or 2 or 3 or 5.....to celebrate the end of the semester.
Moving here was such an awakening for me. I have changed and grown up so much. I have the best friends and the most awesome boyfriend ever. Which btw I need to post some of his amazing photography work that he has done for me. He has a new nikon D40 and I am super jelous.
I am looking forward to the end of the semester. I plan to go home and stay there with my parents for a while. I know I will not last long there because it is so boring but in a way I am ready to go back for a while. I know Brittany is probably more excited than me. :) I would like to take a good vacation but I know that probably will not happen. I'm just looking forward to a few months without books, calculators or projects and tests. I hope I do well on my finals which brings me to the point that I should be studying for them instead of making my blog look pretty, since I am sure no one reads this anymore since I do not post ever. The plan is to blog more this summer but we all know how my plans usually go. I need to be writing my ECE paper but I am just not motivated, and the sleeping puppy at the end of my bed is not a motivation either. He looks so funny.
He likes to sleep like this, sorry for the bad quality but it was taken from my phone. I know if I get up he will follow me.
Here is me and my girl at her T-ball game
I'm looking forward to getting to spend more
time with her this summer

Mid semester crunch
Everything is so busy these days. I can tell its starting to be mid semester because everything seems to be due at once. It seems like I finish one homework and then have to turn right around and do another one. I have came to the conclusion that college is this never ending cycle of craziness. I'm not sure if it is ever going to end. Even with tues and thurs off I still seem to never get everything done. My grades are not exactly where I want them to be. but hopefully they will improve. My classes are so hard. I am in the last programming class thank goodness, but it is kicking my tail, I should be working on my project right now, but I have no idea what to do.
Also I am trying this new diet/eating healthy thing. It is going pretty good so far. I try to work out almost everyday for at least an hour. That is 30 minutes of weights and 20-30 min on the elliptical. I have cut out all fast food and sodas and most sweets. I haven't had McDonalds in over a month and I am dying. But on the other hand I have found some healthier foods that I do enjoy eating. My new favorite place to eat is Jason's Deli. Hopefully I can keep this up until I reach the weight I want.
Another part that is keeping me busy is Nikki and I are looking for a new apartment. A family just moved in upstairs and they have 2 small children and it sounds like the tasmanian devil lives up there. ITS SO LOUD!! So far we havent found anything we really like and can afford. Everything is so expensive.
I am hoping to find an intern or something this summer. I need a job that pays well. I have decided against the co-op option so I need to get my foot in the door somehow.
Well I guess I should get back to doing some homework or that dreaful project.

Feeling the crunch already....
I can already tell the semester is winding down. Everything is being crammed together. I'm starting to get stressed again. Which fortunately I have managed to stay away from more this semester. All my professors are trying to cram that last test in or squeeze in that extra chapter. I will probably not have much of a social life for the next 3 weeks. Next week I have 3 tests and then a project due, the next week is dead week where I will be studying my tail off for my 4 finals, that are on Mon, Tues, wed and Fri. These are the weeks that are gonna mean the most for my grades....I have been doing decent in most of my classes but I need to squeeze in that one last good grade.
On top of all this I have so much other stuff to be stressed about. I need a job for the summer. Do I stay in T-town with a crappy job or do I go home to the horrible $13 job and torture myself living with mom and dad for 2 months I had an interview yesterday but decided the job wasn't really something that I was interested in. So now I am back to square one. I just can't go back home.....I don't want it to be just like high school all over again, plus my fall semester is going to be hard and I need a break. I want to be able to do stuff with my friends......the main thing is I want to go to Dallas to visit Jess.
Jess and I have gotten so much closer this semester. I love her to death.

Back to class.....
So I haven't posted anything in a while. It has been crazy busy around here and then during spring break I didn't have any Internet access...yes I almost died. Spring break was fun. I pretty much just laidaround the house a lot. Nothing interesting but it wasn't class so nothing to complain about either.
I did get to hang out with Brittany. Monday night we went to a bible study at a family from her churches house. It was a 2 part thing so after bible study on Tues I spent the night with her and we went shopping on Wednesday. Bible study was great. It was called being "Sold out for God". We played a game on Monday to where you couldn't say "me" or "I" or you lost a chip( we started with 5 poker chips). It was all part of being humble...which is the first part of how to be sold out to God. The second night we played a treasure hunt type game with clues and stuff. My team won and we got this huge basket of candy....yummy. It was tied in with the last step "seeking his face". Afterwards we all piled in the game room to play some rock band...or in my case just watch.
Thursday I had lunch with my grandmother and cousin and then we went to the park so cousin could play. Friday was shopping with mom, Chelsea and her mom. Saturday I just hung around with mom.
Sunday was Easter. I went to Birmingham to see Justin and met some of his family and then it was back to good ole T-town.
I have a calculus 3 test tomorrow....wish me luck cause its gonna be hard.

Hurry Up Spring Break!!!!
2 more days till Spring Break!!!!! YAY I am so excited. I am desperately in need of a break. School is going better than last semester....thankfully. I just need a break. I want to go to the Beach for SB but no one will go with me... and I don't really have the money...although given the chance I think I could find it. Oh well maybe I can find enough things in the great big town of Woodville to keep me busy...yeah right!!! I am ready to go home and see my family.
The weekend was great. Mine and Roomies moms came down and we went to Cheesecake Factory in B'ham. I will try to post pics later.
This week is going by so fast ....I can't believe its Wednesday. I barely even remember what I did the last 2 days. Lets see....Monday class and Justin and I went to Bowers Park and threw with each other. That was the first time in forever that I have even picked up a ball.....it was fun though. Made me miss softball even more. Yesterday was stupid lab which is actually where I met this Justin character. Well Its time for class so this will have to be a short post.
