Wow. One good trip to Iowa City really was all I needed. I feel SO much better- like myself again! A week without work, a whole lot of vodka, and some attention from a cute guy was just the trick ;-) ! I can't believe that it is October already! What happened to 2010? It seems like just yesterday I was in Iowa City for my 22nd birthday, and now I'm only a month out from celebrating my 22nd birthday again! (I refuse to turn 23, I don't feel 23, I'm not where I thought I would be in my life when I turned 23... so I'm just going to keep repeating 22 until I'm ready!)
Joe came into town for the day and Katie and I spent the afternoon with him which was a BLAST! We drove around for how long and then went for dinner @ BWW- it was so much fun! Not too much else going on! I have a shit ton of homework that I have been putting off, so I should probably get to that!
Until next time!

Left Behind
It's been a rough couple of weeks. School is back in session and I just can't seem to snap back into things. Last semester I was taking 17 credits and I rocked it out! I almost made deans list- and this semester I'm only taking 14 and just feel like I'm always behind! It's like I'm starting my 2nd year at Clarke, and (though I'm technically a junior,) I've hit my sophomore slump. I can't seem to find my stride. I'm always tired, always doing homework, and always feel alone. Michelle is working at the bowling alley a few days a week now and so she's gone more, and when Katie's not working she's with her boyfriend- (whether she should be or not is debatable in my opinion, but she's a big girl and is perfectly capable of making her own decisions, of which I will be supportive). I feel like I live alone with my cat- and while he is a very cute cat- he's not very good company. I feel like the rest of the world just keeps on trucking and I've been left behind. I think my body/mind is still on summer vacation.
Hopefully this weekend will help me catch up! I head to Iowa City for homecoming this weekend, which is always a BLAST! I don't think I have ever had a bad time during Iowa's homecoming (though for the first time, I've never actually heard of the bands performing...) Michelle and I are headed to IC when she gets off work and I get out of class Friday and I just want to have a good time! I need it. When I haven't been in class, doing homework, or moping about at home, I've been working like a fool. I'm trying to pay off all my other debts (i.e. car/ credit card/etc.) so that I can start saving for Spring '12's choir trip to Argentina and then not have any debt other than student loans by the time I graduate. Therefore, despite the fact that I'm a working fool- I am a poor working fool.
I apologize for my pitty party. I've been so blue and moody lately that my friends and family are probably getting sick of me, so I needed a new outlet to blow off some steam in. I don't think anyone actually reads this, so I'm probably not annoying anyone, but it makes me feel better to get it all out there.
Until next time.

Backtracking...
Long time no blog! It has been close to a year since I last wrote, and what a year it has been! I promise to start doing this more often! (Not that anyone probably reads this anyhow...) Where to start...
First of all, I am on a hiatus from theater! I did waaaaay to much of it in too short of time frame and am burnt out!
I am now officially a Clarke University student! I began last semester and just started my second semester there! I LOVE it! I was so worried, because I had loved Wartburg so much, that I wouldn't feel the same way about Clarke, but I do! I have met some of the best people and made some awesome friends!
There aren't really any men in my life right now... I dated a guy we will just call "Tony" for several months and he just turned out to be a bum. He was one of those guys who thought that he was all manly and superior and he was just way too full of himself. I got really fed up with that REALLY fast. I've got my eye on a guy from school who we will just call "blue-eyes," but I think we have more of a friendship going than anything, so we'll see what happens...
I have FINALLY moved out of the parents house for good! (hopefully.) Michelle bought a house in Dubuque in April and Katie and I (and Chester, of course) moved in with her! We pay her rent to help with her mortgage and split the utilities and it's been working really well!
That's about all I have for right now, but I'll try to post more regularly and keep everyone (if there is anyone) up to date!
