Weekend

This weekend has been really busy! On Friday I worked until 8 oclock (what a Friday, huh) and then I came home right afterwards. Devin came over after I got home, though, so it wasn't so bad. We were going to watch a movie but none of the ones in my basement looked good, so my mom went to the store to get a redbox movie. Turns out she got distracted and got groceries instead- so no movie haha. We went for a walk though, and I learned how to make Ramen noodles. Then Saturday I got up early to go to work at 8- honestly I'm gonna hate being an adult all they do is work work work. I'm not an adult though so I'm trying to figure out why I even got a job haha. It wasn't horrible I guess, I was working with my sister Molly, so we had fun. Devin and I went to dinner at Panera and then I dragged him to Charming Charlies (the somewhat new store in Jefferson Point!). I had never been there and neither had he lol. He was so embarrassed to be in there because it's a jewlery place but oh well. There were 5 other guys in there (he counted). We studied for my psych final that night- which I don't know how much fun that was for him but I actually kindof had fun..haha. It doesn't even matter what we do I just like being with him. He's like becoming my life lol. So then Sunday, woke up early again. UGH! My parents and I were driving down to West Lafayette with my other sister Brittany to look for apartments. She recently got accepted into the Purdue Pharmacy School program. (which is a big deal). And so we went to literally 8 different apartment places and got 8 different tours. By the end of the day-I was exhausted. The funny part about that is that she's going with the first apartment we looked at haha. Such a waste of a day. But it's alright because we ate lunch at Subway and it was good :) and I drove all the way there which is good because I'm learning to be a good driver. haha.

Sisterhood of the traveling pants pg. 1-37

The sisterhood of the traveling pants is about four girls that have grown up together because of their moms. Three of them are leaving for the summer but Tibby is staying home, which she isn't very excited about. They discover a pair of pants that fits them all so they decide that they are magical and make it their means of communication for the summer.

Tibby is miserable at home for the summer-she has to work at a place called Wallmans. ANd what fun would summer be without her best friends..

Bridget went to a soccer camp. She is falling for the assistant coach.

Carmen is on the plane to California to visit her dad. Her parents have been divoriced since she was a little girl. She's thinking about what his apartment is going to look like.

ETY Nominations

I liked Rafiki's blog. More specifically I liked the Easter post because he or she (I got the feeling it was a she but I'd feel bad if it was a guy haha) well they weren't afraid to talk about the faith aspect of Easter. It takes courage to talk about faith.

The other one that I like is Ocean Waves. Her blog is sweet and I like the way she talks about the books and has opinions about them.

USF

I went to my Saint Francis class tonight. Everything is really winding down. The final is next Monday and I'm flipping out man. I gotta do some major studying! Tonight, a couple people had to finish up their presentations. (I did mine two weeks ago and it was stellar if I say so myself). And we also had to take some evaluation of the professor. She was really nice so I put a 5 for everything. lol. Honestly, I'm so glad I took that class-especially as a junior. I feel quite accomplished hehe. Now, I'm rather lucky because the final isn't accumlulative so it's only over 4 chapters. Unlucky in the sense that each chapter is 40 pages long. But hey who's complainin? Not me. But ya this whole weekend, I'ma be studying. After I get home from work.

Happy Easter!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Easter is such a happy day!!! The best day of the year some people would say. :)
My sister's and I stopped believing in the Easter Bunny and Santa Clause way back when I was in first grade and they were in 3rd and 4th. Still, my mother puts out an Easter basket from the "easter bunny" every year. It makes me smile haha. But she is very concerned with health so the easter bunny doesn't bring candy to our house. Just nail polish, and bookmarks and a really nice bracelet. I actually really like the bracelet.

We went to mass at 9:30 am. It was really nice! Every one was wearing bright colors and dresses and it felt like spring! Then after mass we went home and cooked lunch and Jeffrey and his family came over. We played cards while we waited for lunch to be ready. All the adults talked and Jeff and Molly played canasta against me, Nick (Jeffs brother), Renato (Jeffs room- mate) and Brittany (my sister). Ironically, the bigger team lost. Oh well.

Anyways, HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!

New job

I got a new job the other day. So I put in an application to Peerless Cleaners the day before I left for Spring Break, which is where my sister Molly works. They called and set up an interview for the next day and that next day was so long because I was so nervous!! I finally got there at 3 oclock all prepared and it turns out that they only had a couple questions for me and I got the job! I started a couple days later and I'm doing quite well. I dont mind it so much actually. I've grown up in about a week though because I have to work everyday until 8 and then drive home and do homework. All day. Everyday. But that's okay the whole growing up thing had to happen sometime.

Yearbook- Allyson Braithwaite Condie pg. 197-230

Chapter 20- Ethan Beckett. Julie Reid asks him to baptize her (her mom finally agreed). He was very honored and said yes. The baptism went very smoothly and he drove Julie and Michaela home. He dropped Julie off first and then went on to ask Michaela out. She said yes.
Chapter 21- Julie Reid. She writes in a journal about her baptism and how she felt so intimately close to God and everyone who attended. She feels truely blessed and I know firsthand how far faith can take you, so props to this author for being brave enough to communicate Faith. Maybe though she could have been a little less brave.
CHapter 22- Andrea Beckett. She was valedictorian so she had to prepare a speech. She used parts of a letter from her Grandma in her speech. Anna Beckett wrote a letter to every family member and dear one before she died. Andrea was sad, but learned alot from her. They all did.
Chapter 23- is a bunch of yearbook entries. The only one I thought was interesting is when Avery tells David SHerman that she likes him....ooh I wonder what happens there. And she says that she will consider church. haha.
