Monday will be the beginning of week ten, and after that finals. My last final is December 11th. and then I'm done. I still owe the school over $700 that I'll have to pay before they give me my degree but for all practical purposes I'm done.
This begs the question- what the hell am I going to do with myself??
I've had quite a bit of downtime the last few days and it gets old pretty fast. Don't get me wrong, I know I'm lucky to have all this free time but TV and internet really only hold my interest for so long. Hopefully I can fill some time with work-either more Marie's or something else. I'm trying to get a job at an event/wedding planner in town. I sent resumes and will be calling them to see if there is anything available. I know it has nothing to do with my degree but I think I could be really good at it so, why not give it a whirl.
Speaking of giving things a whirl, we booked our denver trip yesterday.
I'm going to look into taking some dance classes and jewelery making classes to fill some free time as well. And I'm hoping david can help me learn to use photoshop.

right now I'm applying at barnes and noble and borders. If I get a job there, I'll have discounts on books, and so the free time problem will be completely taken care of

post-halloween, post-flower shop. post-election.

Halloween is over and our party was epically...epic. Our floors are still sticky from jungle juice spills but that's the price we pay. That, and my straightener, my phone, my makeup remover, melissa's makeup, melissa's mousse, melissa's floss, jason's razor, jason's cologne, and jason's hair gel. All stolen from our bathroom. Really really classy. However, our costumes were phenomenal.


The flower shop is over. RIP being miserable. I hated that job. hated my boss. hated never seeing my friends or my boyfriend. hated never having time for anything. Over it.
Thought I could work two jobs and go to school full time but I was wrong. So, I am resigned to being poor until I'm done with school in, that's right, five weeks. We won't talk about that right now.On the bright side, I learned how to arrange flowers and make dried wreaths. And developed a love for these: Pin cushion scabiosa

Barack Obama is the fucking president. Amazing much? I think so. I'm elated. Democratic congress. Democratic President. Hopefully now we can get some shit done. Hopefully I won't be completely screwed when I'm off my parents health insurance. Hopefully I won't be paying back loans for the next twenty five years. hopefully I can get a good job with my expensive degree. hopefully this is as exciting as we all think it is.

In other news the twilight movie comes out in about three weeks. --piddle--
