Happy Girl

This picture summarizes the last week.
Run down of my week:
Monday: Western Civ. Exam
Tuesday: Chem. Lab Quiz
Wednesday: STUDYSTUDYChurchSTUDYSTUDY
Thursday: Am. Lit. Mid-term & Spanish Exam & Babysit.
Friday: Chem. Exam

I'm not even sure I can make coherent sentences anymore. I feel like I've studied so much and been so stressed out this week that my brain just died after Chemistry today.

::I'm watching the Tornado coverage weather alert thing on Fox 6 and the meteorologist (it took me like five minutes to spell that right) just said "The storm is heading towards Snoddy, Alabama". Umm... Come on. Could we give the other states of the nation any more reason to think we're dumb hillbillies? SNODDY!?::

I made an 85 on the Western Civ. Exam I had this week. I'm actually really sad about that. Have I became "that student"? Who is "that student", you might ask? The student that has to make all A's and isn't happy with herself unless she does. I've always been the student that was overjoyed with a C. Could I possibly be straddling the fence of overachieverness? I think I could be.

--OH YEAH! Disregard my last post. Totally didn't turn out the way I had planned. Lol!--

Only 4 people can read this. I had some random 13 year old girl from Michigan comment on my blog earlier this week and I realized that I didn't like that, so I made my blog private. However, to do this you must have the account email of the people, and only 4 people that I follow have their email addresses on their profile. =(

Happy Lent! I am giving up social networking sites of lent. I've been told, by Caleb, that I'm addicted. And that's probably true. Facebook is crack for nosey people. If I give up Facebook and Myspace, I will have so much more time for things. I'm giving it up on my phone too, not just my computer. That's gonna be the hardest! I rationalized blogger as less addictive than the other two. Plus, I can blog about what the Lord teaches me for the next 40 days...WOW 40 days! That's a long time. I wish I was spiritually mature enough to give up something more meaningful... like food, or TV, or school, however, I'm not. Lol.

Upward and Onward!

Phase 1: CD with all the song that remind me of him/us.
This is the cover. I made a little booklet with my favorite lines from each song.

Phase 2: A video of pictures of him and I. I wanted this to be a DVD, but it hasn't gotten there yet. Hopefully it will soon. :)

Phase 3: A CAKE! Because V-day is never complete without some sugar!



I had the best Valentines day. Caleb took me to Silvertron Cafe, where he gave me a beautiful diamond ring that I'm never taking off, then he took me to the bridge on 21st Street downtown and we danced-SO SWEET, and then we came back and ate cake!
He thought of the idea of recording it. I'm sure it's awkward watching 2 minutes of us dancing, so I don't expect you to. I just thought it was really sweet! :)

I'm probably not the person to be talking to about Valentine's day... especially considering most of the people that read my blog seem a little, shall we say, "indifferent" about today and it's festivities. However, I've always loved Valentine's Day! Even when I wasn't dating anyone, I still loved it because my parents always gave me chocolate... what is better than getting chocolate for no reason at all?!

When I do have a "valentine" I enjoy the gift giving process a lot more than the gift getting (depending on the gift). I like lending my talents (though limited) to making someone see how much I love them. This Valentine's Day is extremely special because it's the first of many, many, many more with Caleb. When I give gifts, I do tend to go a little overboard and get OCD about it. I don't just go buy something last minute. I really think about it and put a lot of time and effort into it. I'm just sentimental like that.

I've only been on two Valentine's dates in my entire life. One when I was 14, another last year, and then tonight will make three. The first one, my gift was very big card with a puppy on it and some other assorted goodies. I can't really remember. I try not to think about that relationship too much (Things that make you go "UuHhH~~"). Last year, I made a CD with some of my favorite songs on it. All I remember is rushing, rushing, rushing for about 3 hours before the boy arrived to try to get everything together and fixed. Why? Because I'm a procrastinator.

This Valentine's Day gift is better than all the rest! But this boyfriend is better than all the rest... so it works out! It has seriously been like a military operation trying to get this done secretly (having a boyfriend that works at Wal-mart is very tricky). I will divulge these lovely secrets in due time. Something to look forward to.

=)

By the way, Charlie and the Chocolate Factor is such a weird movie.

I can blog on my phone. This could make blogging a much more frequent activity for me now. Random tidbits: 1. I listened to old Blink 182 and GooGoo Dolls today. That is a guaranteed way to make any day better. 2. The Birmingham Police Homicide Dept was on The First 48 tonight. Some of my dad's friends were on it. He is a burglary detective so he wasn't. But it was still cool. Going to sleep now. Night night! :-)
