Here I Am

I'm not exactly sure what possessed me to start a blog, but here I am. I'll warn anybody who stumbles across this ahead of time: I just write what comes to mind, there really is no rhyme or reason for the way I do things.

This last week has been a rollercoast of emotions for me and not for the better.

I was rearended on Saturday and I find myself very nervous when I'm driving with somebody in front of me and someone behind me, especially when it comes to stopping. I keep getting these flashbacks of seeing the car coming towards me through my rearview mirror and not being able to prepare my sister for impact before it happened.

I think my reaction from the accident and the stress from my classes and my irritation with my senior portfolio advisor is what had me in tears on Tuesday night... my brain was so fried that night that I couldn't think straight and I couldn't make my mind up about anything. The only thing that helped was realizing that I could drop one class and still have my required 12 credits.. of course that means I'll be able to walk in June, but I won't officially be done until this summer after I take one last class.

Things have gotten better with the advisor, too. I took my overview to her for the third time and she finally approved it (woohoo!). Then she and I talked for a minute or so about things I should and shouldn't do when writing my paper and I actually feel more comfortable with the whole thing, which is a major plus.

I'm watching/listening to the Boston Red Sox game right now, I feel like a bad fan because I tend to turn off the game if Jed Lowrie isn't playing, but he's currently on the DL (hopefully back for the Sunday game against the Mariners in May) and I decided that I should still support the sox. Speaking of the Mariner game, my brother and I are playing with ideas oh what we could put on our signs. There's the obvious "We're from Salem, OR and we love Lowrie" or "North Salem Viking Pride," but we'll see.

So, I bought an epilator but I haven't decided if I like it yet. I've only used it on one leg so far, mostly cause I'm too lazy to do the other right now, but yeah my leg feels only slightly better than the couple times I dry shaved and there are red bumps all over my legs, but the little booklet said that those should clear up with regular use. I think I'll probably go to the naturalist store this weekend and see if I can find some after shave lotion or something that will help sooth the redness.

I saw 17 Again with my friend Crystal today... it was a pretty cute movie. I will admit that Zefron looked pretty hot in it, though he'll never be hotter than Corbin Bleu in my book, but I don't necessarily think it lived up to the all hype that it got. Which makes me wonder if that it was given a lot of hype becuase maybe it wouldn't have done as well with out it. But whatever... it was a cute movie, I'll probably get it on Netflix and watch it again but I doubt I'll buy it.

Mmmk, I'm done for now... gotta get started on all my homework.
