A rant about lunchboxes. Yeah, that's right.

09/30/2010

Too much to do. Too little time to pull my hair out.

"I cannot even explain where my head has been lately - up my butt maybe? If you would like to know what it is like to have my mind, just imagine walking around and hearing a million voices saying, 'You have to do this, you have to do that, you're running late, you better hurry.'"

Wow, life has been so hectic lately. Last Friday, I worked for Red Wolves Day; man, was that crazy. IU East had around three-hundred high school students attend that day. Luckily, I was put on Student Panel. Omg, I love Student Panel so much. For those of you who are unfamiliar with how it works, it is basically a chance for prospective students to ask us anything and everything about college life. Trust me, we have been asked just about everything. It's cool though because IU East faculty are not in the room with us when we talk to them - so high school students get the real deal.

Red Wolves Day. Taking a break with Rufus.

That night, I had a slumber party with some of my best girlfriends. Honestly, some of my best memories include these girls. The night consisted of eating lots of junk food, facials (complete with cucumber for the bags under our eyes), and watching trashy reality television. Saturday morning we went to a costume store in Dayton, Ohio and tried on Halloween costumes. They happened to have the one I have been looking at online. I tried it on and then came home and ordered it online (it was $20.00 cheaper, screw that). You are probably wondering what I am going to be for Halloween; I am not going to say just yet. I figure the pictures will make it interesting.

Monday was interesting because Mattie Gabston brought in a real human brain for us to see. Pretty cool. The biggest difference between a human brain and the pig's brain is definitely the frontal lobe. The human brain has a bigger frontal lobe and looks more complex... It's hard to explain, really. The complexity may have just been because it was preserved; whereas the pig's brain had just been removed from the pig like... that morning or something lol. There was a lot of blood covering it so it was difficult to see all the detail. Just saying.

Tuesday was production class. Nothing new in terms of videos featuring me and my bad acting. However, I do think Alyssa filmed me and Stephen in the back of the classroom dancing like we were in a rap video. I really hope Jerome did not see that when he reviewed the footage.

Slumber Party.

As far as today, I did a lot. I forgot my lunchbox; so as you can expect, I was level five angry. I have been doing that a lot - forgetting my lunchbox and what not. I hate it. I pack a delicious lunch only to realize I left it at home. The worst part is actually having to go out and buy your lunch after you forget. That stuff gets expensive. I have also been forgetting to text people back. I have been absolutely HORRIBLE with my iPhone. I would like to give a shout out to those I have been unintentionally ignoring and say I am sorry! I cannot even explain where my head has been lately - up my butt maybe? If you would like to know what it is like to have my mind, just imagine walking around and hearing a million voices saying, "You have to do this, you have to do that, you're running late, you better hurry." Let's be serious here; I do it to myself. Deep down, I love being busy. It is just hard finding that time to relax.

Cough... Enough about schizophrenia.

Waiting on more auditions. Alyssa and me...and Stephen...being Stephen. :) Haha.

After my morning class, I judged the auditions for the talent show. In our down time, we danced on stage and sang various songs. We had some really, really, really awesome people audition. I am so excited for the talent show - and you should be too! MEDIA CLUB TALENT SHOW: THURSDAY, OCTOBER 28TH AT 5:30PM AT VIVIAN AUDITORIUM. Be there, or.... or.... you suck!

That is all I have for now. :)
