bucket list.
over the past couple of weeks it has really hit me that i'll be a senior in college next semester.
wow.
where did the time go?!?
my roommates and i have been talking about how we should sit down and make a list of things to do before we graduate. that has got me thinking about my own personal bucket list. i think of things everyday that i'd like to do while i'm young [or at least while i'm still spry enough to get around], so i'm going to try to list all of the things i want to do on my blog. i'm sure i'll have to add some, or even take some away, but i think it'll be a great way of keeping track of things!

geez, i'm the world's worst blogger.
i feel like i haven't blogged in forever! i had the best of intentions, but i got super busy with school work. now i'll try to give y'all the condensed version of the last couple of weeks.
spring break was the second week of this month. i had originally planned to go to the beach with kotr, but he ended up getting a long-term substitute teaching position and wouldn't be able to come stay with me. he ended up driving to CH, spending the weekend here, and then i rode back with him to MD. i was lucky enough to get to spend over a week with him!!
there was a downside to all of it though...he worked everyday until 2:30. fortunately i have the ability to sleep for much longer than any normal human being should, so i would sleep until 12:00, get up, shower and get ready, watch Days of Our Lives, and then he'd be home. [i should mention that i was asleep by the time the 11:00 news came on every night...so that's 13 hours of sleep!!]
there were a couple of days that i did wake up before 10:00 and since i didn't have my car there i was kind of stuck. lucky for me his grandma was kind enough to let me drive her sweet buick.
that thing was HUGE! when i went to the grocery store i had to park in the farthest space away from the store bc i couldn't fit my sweet ride in any of the closer spaces that were available.
the whole reason i had to go to the grocery store is...I COOKED FOR KOTR'S FAMILY. kotr thought it would be a great idea if i made chicken stew for his family...so i did. i made 25 darn cups of it. it must have been a miracle bc it turned out really good and pretty much his whole family liked it!
the last night i spent there we had a wedding to go to [sidenote: every time i turn around another one of kotr's friends is getting engaged or married!]. we got all dolled up and we even matched! i had pictures uploaded to my computer so that i could eventually upload them to the blog, but once again i had to have my computer reimaged, aka wiped clean to remove some nasty virus. i lost the pictures. i guess that's a hint that i should try to upload pictures in a more timely manner. the only good thing that came out of the computer incident was: i got windows 7! so far, so good. i really like it!
the past two weeks have been a blur. i've had so much work to do it ain't even funny. i finally got a break and i was able to go to supper with the girls [+one girl's bf] at bandido's for half price ladies night! and to top it all off, grey's anatomy is new tonight!! yay!
i'll wrap it up bc i know my life is super boring. until next time....
[which knowing me will be in 2 weeks HA!]

i need a break.
i've been studying all day and right now i want to rip my eyeballs out bc they are hurting from looking at the computer screen for the last 6 hours. [i guess blogging isn't really the best way to fix this problem]
i need to refocus bc my mind is in a million different places right now. [i know blogging is a great fix for that!]
i will be so darn happy when tomorrow at 4:45 rolls around. my week will finally be over and i'll be able to do something that had begun to feel foreign to me: sleep. for those of you that know me, you know that i love to sleep. kotr says he has never met anyone that can sleep for as long as i do, and he's not the only person that's ever told me that.
the reason i haven't had much sleep is becauseall carolina professors are trying to make spring break seem as far away as possible even though it starts friday afternoon i've had what feels like a million midterms this week. i'll be taking my last one tomorrow at 8am. i'm not too worried about it, but i guess we'll just have to wait and see how it goes.
kotr will be coming on friday afternoon!! he typically comes down on thursday afternoons, but he was lucky enough to get a long-term substitute position in a 6th grade science class. [he told me he gave out lunch detentions today and i couldn't help but laugh when i pictured him actually trying to be mean.]
for spring break i had originally planned to go to the beach and work at medieval times. that didn't go as planned, so now i'll be going home with kotr for a week. i'm a little worried bc his family has never had to endure me for more than a couple of days at a time! wish me luck!!!
okay, i guess i've stalled long enough......................
......back to studying. :-(
