I'm going to College

You heard about Colorado? 
Of course you did. 


Tragic. 
It really should be unbelievable that human beings can be so violent, but it isn't. Ever since the fall of man ( if you believe in that sorta thing), humans have been warped. Most of us notice it on a daily basis, sadly society only acknowledges it when psycho- killers attack innocent movie goers. 


Needless to say I will be thinking and praying for said innocent movie goers. Also probably needless to say, what little desire I had to go see that movie is now gone. 






Not to be unsentimental, but by now you're tired of hearing about the sad event and it's time to enlighten you with what's the what what in my life! 

 (the best part of your day, don't deny it) 

I'M GOING TO COLLEGE!!! 
As in like I'm actually moving there. 
No, I'm not trucking half-way across the country to outlive a reckless desire for adventure. I'm trucking an hour away (if you drive the speed limit) to live out the more realistic dream of leaving home for a good education, yet still being close to home. 
I'll be attending University of North Carolina at Pembroke. Instead of staying a dorm, I'll be living in the apartments across the streets. My own room and BATHROOM! And sharing a living room and kitchen with three others. 
I'm super excited!! 
Everything is basically taken care of, just a few more things to sign, seal, and deliver. I.e: signing up for classes and getting shots! Not to enthused about that last part. 




So many things are coming up in the next couple of weeks, I wanna take it all in and not miss a beat. I'm exciting to turn this new leaf over in my life. (needless to say) I feel determined to make the most out of this year. Starting out on the right foot sorta thing. 

Hairy Situation

With not working much and not being in school right now, I have a lot of time to sit on my butt and not do much.

I mean I guess I could clean, give back to the community, or ... 

God help me, EXERCISE. 

yea.. or maybe not. 

Today was one of those days when I woke up and did not like what was staring back at me in the mirror. 

Regardless of the fact that my physical appearance sucked! ( breakouts, frizzy hair, bags under my eyes, eye buggers.. and so on.. ) 

I also have the heavy failure feeling drooping on my shoulders. Sitting around looking like a bum, I felt like a bum. Finally about two o'clock I looked myself in the eye and said "take a shower you smelly bum".

After my self- motivational speech I made it to the shower. Once I got in the shower my next thought was 

"humm I should probably shave while I'm in here" 

OMG WHY DO WOMEN HAVE TO SHAVE SO MUCH?!!

It a twenty minute attempt to de-hair myself. Not to mention the next 15 minutes it took to wash my hair, face, and body.  When I got out I noticed that I missed like half the bak of my thunder thighs and cut myself in like three places. It would have been easier to go to a butcher... well ok, maybe not. 

Usually after a shower I feel relaxed and less bum-ish looking.. not today. 

I was so frustrated after I got out the only thing I could do was cry. 

Ok, I didn't cry.. 

but I did use my good lotion and spent another twenty minutes on my hair and make-up.. which did make me feel a little better about myself. 

I expect better of myself.

Over the course of the day I haven't done much, just to be honest with you. 
(This blog is supposed to be about me and my journey through life... at least that's what I think it's supposed to be about. )
Sometimes I surprise myself at how lazy I can be. Which we all knew that, didn't we? 
My room is a complete disaster. Clothes, clean clothes, are in a pile on the floor, the dirty clothes hamper is full again, my closet kinda exploded on itself and my table and dresser... let's not even go there. 
My bathroom needs cleaning.. not to mention all the stuff that STILL needs to be done for my sister's wedding on SATURDAY! 
I can't start talking about that or I'll be here all night. 


You're probably wondering why I'm blogging instead of cleaning my room or cleaning out wine bottles for the wedding. Stop wondering that! I was messing on the computer and here I am. 
Don't give me that look you know you love spending time with me :) 


Due to certain circumstances I haven't been working a lot lately and school is out, so I haven't been doing much which makes me feel extra lazy! I've kinda gotten into the habit of sleeping a lot and... well that's about it. Sleeping. A lot. 
I'm hoping that once work picks back up I'll have more motivation and not feel like such a waste of space. Plus I'll have some cash flow. Which is always a good sign. "Love that money!" to quote Ricky Bobby. 
I think I can handle work starting back, but I'll admit I'm not ready for school. I finally got everything squared away, classes scheduled and financial aid done. But I'm not mentally prepared. 
Last semester threw me for a loop, to say the least. This summer break I plan on getting myself back on track and ready to tackle school. I had a long talk with myself, well I've had several talks with myself, and I expect better of myself! 

"look at the tiny toilet.."

This is.. bad video of the awesome bathrooms at the assembly of God in Wilmington.

little ditty about emily and muffins! oh and the bathroom!

this morning has been a great morning. its mornings like this that convince me i won't turn into a basket case living alone. 

i woke up to the apartment empty ( except a note asking me to vacuum!).

after my morning piss ( we all have one!) i retreated to the living room. 

i turned my music on and did some dibiling on the computer and then i danced around my apartment like a.. well like a basket case. but it was fun! 

sometimes it worries me that i enjoy my time alone so much. when i think about it, most of my favorite activities only involve numero uno?

such as when i was coming home the other night i was jamming out to my ipod on shuffle and i went from listening to Breaking Benjamin to nsync. please don't ask me why nsync is on my ipod! they just are. any why  i was singing along and  i started doing all these different voices and answering the questions in the song with these ghetto answers. i was cracking myself up! i wish i would've recorded it. is that normal? probably not. 

but then again i never confessed to being normal. ( if i did i was tripping hard on something!) 

this is a sorta side note.. breakfast is basically my favorite food time. so this morning i seriously wanted muffins, so i made muffins. and not to brag but they are delicious!! 

i have to go take a shower. i desperately have to wash my hair. it crazy nasty. then i get to go to work! 

yesterday was pretty good ( did i already say that, or was i just thinking i said that)

my computer is excepted to be here by the end of the week! woot woot!

"So you wanne be a writer, then -" yes i know! Write!

Greetings! greetings? I'm not sure I like the sound of that.. sounds like.. well it sounds to peppy for one thing.
For today Blogger isn't blocked at school. Which is a great thing.
Another great thing.. I found this ad on Craigslist (more on why I was there later!) for wanted bloggers. That's me! The name of the group is called The Reel Scoop. They have a Blog and Facebook. I emailed the guy and told him I was interested and all that jazz. To make a long story short they added me as a contributor! AH! I'm so excited :) No there is no money. But I will gain experience! Which is what I want and need. I just did a little story on Criminal minds and sent it to him.. I got positive feedback so after I'm done here I'll go post it.. and I think there is a way to post links in the side bar.. I will add a link so you can go check it out and follow it if you feel so led.
I feel pretty cool right now :)

I have to pee.
Maybe that's from the water I've been sipping on all morning.
Who's  genius?
I am!
Oh I give myself too much credit.

30 day challenge: day 8

Thirty day challenge day 8: a picture that makes you smile

This picture was taken earlier at youth when me and Meredith (pictured here) went up to the church kitchen to retrieve a knife... we needed the knife to cut tomatoes for youth. We made a pit stop in the bathroom and... boom! Photo op!!
