Remember freshman year writing class? We had to write in this asinine journal for some fifty odd pages throughout the semester which for people like me was like walking on needles. But aparently its good for you to write about whats on your mind. On that note I am attempting to resurrect my freshman year livejournal habit.
Today I actually lost feeling in my toes and fingers, as well as the majority of my face while walking back from the library. I have never figured out how people tie their scarves so well that they do not fall down or rub on your face. Must be the years of experience up here in the tundra.
Tomorrow is my last duty ever. So excited. I'll miss JA a lot and I have loved both my staffs, but I just don't have time. I am actually procrastinating right now by doing this journal entry. Don't go thinking i ahve no work to do, because that is NEVER the case. Right now I am on the final leg of end-of-semester work, one last thing to do: write an exercise prescription for Dan. Its not that its hard its just so much stuff. Its due on wednesday by 5pm, so that I will do.
I am coming down with a cold, which sucks, since I am supposed to work tomorrow and have my interview/meeting/scheduling with the woman at Ultimate Fitness this week. So what if I can not breathe, doesn't make me a bad aerobics instructor right?
Three finals to freedom. My last one is on monday, so immediately following that final (anatomy) I will start packing. I get to start moving into the apartment next week, and I am contemplating whether or not to bring the futon. I have two couches and a chair I am bringing. I don't think I'll need it. Apparently I get to sign over all the electricity and cable stuff to my name too, I will feel so responsible. So broke, but so responsible.
Final end to my entry. BAHAMAS SPRING BREAK 2006! I need to get my ass in shape, Kristen and I are working on it. Just not for the next two weeks. I'll be back in MA January 6th ish. Start working at Applebees and Ultimate, because its all about the benjamins baby.
Peace out.

I dunno if anyone actually checks these anymore, but what the hell. So summer, good times all around. NSP was awesome. Can't complain, all around good time, awesome people, I actually felt helpful too! At home I have been catching up with friends, but this week they all go back to school. Tear. I go out to the barn everyday, riding my pony, she is so lazy, its ridiculous, she used to be MAD, now shes a lazy bum. I like the lazy bums. Speaking of lazy bum, Calen came up this weekend, so we did the touristy thing, went to DC, teh park ect. I love it when people come visit because I actually go experience all the history around me. Living here I just don't, well no one does, we don't want to be mistaken for tourists. I am sure any New Yorker/City Liver would understand. Calen did get to experience an exhillarating 22 hrs in traffic! Sorry, that just sucks, I think all in all we got in a good 40hrs of time to hang out, so little more than half that in traffic. Thats 7 states worth of traffic for ya. Homecoming is going well, Gargano told Kristen, Hannah and I we have all the same money form last year, and we are being a little cheaper this year, but I think it'll be awesome. Anyone reading this will come, trust me, you'll want to. Aside from that I am PUMPED Annie is coming up with me next year, I don't quite know how I figured a good two hours+ of time for her a day, but I did. Looks like my freshman/sophomore year worth of a social life was good enough. Ha. Yeah right. And by the way, Sept. 3, my birthday, me at UMass. You know you want to. Alrighty, gotta go start packing. Peace out cub scouts!

Spring Break Overview:
Arrive in Florida, all sick but Jeffery, at Best Western in officially the remote area of Florida. It was full of old people, depsite telling me it was near a beach and was full of kids. Drank and swam, good stories arose. Day 2, got mad burnt at a beach 15 minutes away and befriend Craig the cab driver. Craig is officially the first person to not lie to us in Florida.
Day three leave for Quatlity Inn actually on the beach. It rained, but felt a little better because the woman working at the hotel told us she had recently moved out of her parents place at the age of forty. COOL lady. Got drunk, went to a club, I boxed in an inflatable ring, lost, maggie got her boob bit by a man who wanted her to have his baby, Daniella almost killed him, Calen watched us all be idiots, had a great time. Day four, rained, got about 1 hour on the beach, read a book. Got drunk, went out, no one was around, I talked in my unconcious drunken sleep, everyone laughed. Day 5, rained. Decided to go to Saint Petersburg on the Jolly Trolley. Jolley Trolley, not so jolly. Listen to crackheads talk about their issues, got lied to again, saw it was sunny in saint pete, had a great sandwich, looked around awesome shops, started raining again. Got back on the jolly trolley towards Clearwater. Turns out, that bus was not going to our part, so he told us a bus was right behind that would take us there. After waiting 1 hour in the rain it came. Once again, lied to. Didn't drink, too tired, sick, annoyed at the rain. Day six, called Craig to take us to the airport, where we hung out from 12 noon to 6pm when the flight left. Thanks florida, for nothing. It was fun though. Learned about crackheads and strippers, what not to do when drunk, ect. We had a good time, despite all odds.
What else: Got NSP job, yay. Had a great lunch with the Braits and saw awesome cars in Boston, then came back to Umass. And thats where I am now. YEEEHAW.
Peace out boyzzzzz

So yesterday I got done with my chemistry exam and was pumped. Last test before spring break, only a deans book presentation left, but this morning my Exercise Science teacher said that I have ONE last one on thursday. Oh well, good thing to do before I have to pack:) Sooo happy about florida. I just wanna be warm. I am hardly in bikini shape, but honestly, I am not gonna care. I mean to start, Maggie told me we are gonna be drinking at noon, and I am not gonna be able to think straight so no problem there. Can't wait to spend quality times with super high quality friends.
Speaking of which I feel like I haven't spent hardly enough time with my friends this semester, or last semester for that matter. So, if anyone wants to get together for lunch or studying or something my schedule is kinda like this: Monday 2:00-3:35 free; tuesday 12:30-2:30 free; wed 12:05-3:00 free; thursday 1:00-5:30 free; friday anytime after 12:30 i am doneeee.
This friday I have a second interview for the NSP position. I am good at one on one interviews, so hopefully all will go well and I can stay up here over the summer. Only problem is that I would like to stay up here basically all summer, but I will have no where to go after mid july. So, if anyone's leases start them I would be totally willing to get in on that for a month or two and save you some cash. I am a REALLY good roommate, references available.
Yesterday I spend a whopping 55minutes on the phone with auxiliary services TRYING to find a place for SoCo, and kinda ended up insulting them somewhat excessively, but they are assholes. I think I came out on top since they agreed to meet with myself and campus and facilities planning to find a viable space. Still waiting on the SGA for a multitude of things (my club approval for one thing, come on Tru), and just realized that there is gonna be a turn over soon! Oops, but my friend James is running for president, so vote james washburn for president, he'll do a good job.
Today I read the articles about the bars in amherst and now I have a new appreciation for house parties, cause really, they don't sound like so much fun. Go under 21 crowd:) Too much money anyway, and boys here are too stingy to pay for a girls drink anymore. They expect everything for nothing... Jerks! Just kidding I think its kinda sleazy to make a guy pay for your drinks just to get free ones. I've done it, I admit, but thats because I was in Montreal, I mean come on, no lasting relationship there. Or even a short one. And i am cheap. But I wouldn't around here, plus I don't dress slutty enough. Once again.. Not in the bikini shape;)
well, thats all for now, peace out cub scouts

Week in recap:
Test in physics: Not good, but not terrrible
Test in Abnormal: EASY
Test in Stats: Tonight
Ad Rep Job: Nope, oh well
Putting finishing touches on CDA application
First interview for NSP
Redid resume
Ate a lot of chocolate, got sick
*Note: I don't even like chocolate, I think its a drug, since I did it anyway
Started Deans Book Project on PTSD
It was a pretty good week. Lotta work, but I didn't get too burnt out. Had dnner over at Paul and Melissa's which was aweome, got to watch Gilmore Girls after my physics test, Calen came and visited JA again, went to sex pictionary, and worked out some (oops, not sooo good this week).
I was really bummed out for a while though. Maggie is transferring to UMass Dartmouth, and most everyone else except for Chance and Abi are going abroad. I am contemplating moving up to OHill, since Amar is gonna transfer up there and George is gonna go back to the job. Aside fomr that, basically like half of my friends are graduating or moving off campus. The JA staff is ahving a huge chamge over too, and maybe I should try outside of SW. For the CDA job I put Coolidge first, then Greenough in Central, baker in central, and then back in southwest. If I was gonna do that I don't want to ahve to deal with loud drunks, the stoners are AOK with this chick.
Well Statistic is a callin' GTG

Thank goodness for three day weekends. First off I am royally screwed for this physics exam, so I am prob gonna go study in the library for like 4-12 hours today (give or take an hour or two). Luckily Calen's roommate is a electrical engineer and said he would help me out tonight, so hopefully after my kickboxing meeting he'll shed some light upon all this craziness.
On the brightside I am hoping today will be the kickboxing clubs first highly attended meeting. Today 6-7pm on floor 19. Basically gonna be pretty simple, not too hard, so that we have something to work up to, and it gives me some time to practice again, since I have had NO time at all recently.
Tomorrow is gonna be insane. I have my 8am, followed by more physics studying, abnormal, more physics, physics lab, one on one from 4:30-5:30, getting pied in the face for a good cause 6-6:30 at berkshire then my physics exam from 7-9, then relax with the girls for TV time. Phew, and its not even tuesday yet.
I got a lot of other studying done while avoiding physics though. Pretty solid on abnormal and stats is gonna be a breeze.
Florida in 19 days! Can't hardly wait...
Oh, and I got recommended to be a CDA next semester, its like being an RA, but no rounds, and you are basically like the RA's in that buildings boss along with the ARD's and RD, and you get to do campus/area wide programming. I like doing bigger type programming activities, hate rounds(which they don't have to do), still want my double single(which they get), same salary(yup) and it sounds like fun. I wouldn't be like a badass one that ride RA's asses, but I would feel important. I may just apply and see what happens. If I turn it down I still get to keep my RA job. I dunnnnnnnno.
Ok everyone, enoy the snow:)

Back again cause its a yucky day. Anyways lets see, life is good, got a test tomorrow though. Luckily it is not next week however when I have three. All of which are kinda hard. Well, physics I suspect will kick my sorry ass should I not study all weekend. Abnormal requires a lot of reading yet to be done, but as for stats, well I think I am ok there, all we talk about it the slope. Tomorrow is exercise science 215, gonna be an easy one I can tell. Anyways, my residents have been driving me up the wall recently, holding parties until all hours of the night, finally I layed down the law, then pretty much just stayed off the floor this weekend. A rather fun weekend it was too.
On friday night calen and I went out and got some sushi, then chilled out and watched a movie and hung out with some friends. Saturday was awesome though. Jeff, Kevin, Kristen, Maggie, and I all went to Brian Long's house. I ran into like 4 of my residents but they are the cool ones so it didn't matter, Joe and I tried to get on the beruit table but couldn't. I got Kris pretty drunk too, one of my goals in life. Kinda rocked the beruit table with jeff while maggie attempted to steal OJ with the help of mitch and pep. Good times, although we all drank just a SMIDGE too much.
Sunday was unproductive, but mags and I had a nice talk at starbucks. Theres nothing like some antonios, starbucks, a general dislike for chemistry and a long talk on a sunday. This week started out hellish though. Monday went to traffic court and LOST, but got the fine reduced to half. Then a freakin meter maid tried to have my car towed although I was definitally in the space, the tow people agreed with me. Then traffic coming back from worchester. Ugh. Made it back in times for deans book though, had forgotten to double space my paper, so did wayyyyy too much writing. Luckily I made a new friend, this royal hippie named montana who told me I was deeeeeep. Gotta love them hippies. Sat on my ass after than exhausted and cold from the snow, watched jerry macguire with mags holly and daniella. Tuesday rocked though, and I was even on duty, it was a good day thanks to the weather. Today, not bad at all, earthfoods had some good lunch, made my day.
Maggie and I are hitting the gym like mad women, looking hot for florida for spring break. Gonna kick ASS. So excited for warm weather. Oh and by the way heres the final schedule for Kickboxing:
**Monday 6-7pm
**Wednesday 6-7pm
**Sat 3-4pm
19th floor JA, be there or be SQUARE
starting this saturday, be there, I am gonna whoop your ass into shape biotch:) all in good fun.
Most exciting thing, submitting my proposal for Southern Comfort Cafe to SGA hopefully next week. Rosemary and I are going over my business plan this week, meeting with some SOMers to be my financial committee and dining services to get Hampden de-condemned. Cause we all know SW needs a coffee shop.
Last thing, a funny story: So last friday I had my interview for AdRep. I show up and the two other people in my interview are Mike Pantina(RA in JA) and Kraig Moore(my resident). It was a fun time and we all got called for the second interview, so I am pumped. Hoping to get it so if I TA next semester I can do it for credit.
Ok, peace out cub scouts.

So school has started, classes have started, RAing has started, so it has officially begun. So far class seems good, not too bad, A LOT of reading though. Most of my classes seem really easy, only orgo and psych are gonna be a pain in the ass. But in my opinion if it interests me its cool, and totally worth my time. Went on rounds tonight, not fun. Wrote up 6 rooms, thats a lot. I gotta admit the hypocracy makes me feel bad, but luckily with my lack of emotions it doesn't last long. Its a strange feeling, being in a building and not having my best friends around, and when they need me I am so far away, even though its only an evelator ride and a short walk. The strangest feeling is not being friends with the floor, since last year they were all so cool and I could hang out with everyone all the time. I gotta say that my one saving grace is the staff, all very cool people. I have been spending good quality time with a bunch of the other RA's, and they make me feel a lot better about it. Plus they are just cool people, so I can ust hang out. Anyway, I was just updating because I KNOW how much everyone needs to be informed of my fabulous life;) Football game this sat vs. richmond, I will be there, you should too. G'night

So being an RA is fun yet exhausting. Its kinda weird to be like "Hi, I'm Kim your RA." and then them ask you your grade and be in the same one as them. Very funny looks indeed. But its all good, the floor is pretty friendly but we are gonna have to have some serious open door policy since its seems a little standoffish at the moment. Move in has been hectic, and I get to go work the elevators in about half an hour. Better save my voice for some yelling. I am just waiting for the craziness of sunday!
Mostly I am stoked that everyone is moving back in. Last night Maggie and Daniella came onto the floor and hung out, it was great to be back. They were quick to point out however that I ahve fifty condoms and no man, so I believe they are taking applications, I mean condoms do have an expiration date ya know... (In the words of Maggie) Its good to be back. Alrighty gtg but will update soon.
Oh! And I am 19 today, yeeeeeeeeeehaw.
Tuesday, August 24, 2004
Hehe, after a fun time in NYC with Daniella, and an awfully relaxing time on the Cape with Mags I am now back in my home away from home, UMass. I can hardly even tell ya how glad I am to be back, or just how excited I am about this next *hopefully* crazy year. I moved into my ginormous room, and i am gonna have to do some serious interior decorating, but I promise by the time I am done all ya'll are gonna be hanging out in 1008 JA. PROMISE.
Anywho, I met one nice girl named erin on 11 and greg who I knew from last year. RA traiing starts tomorrow, so that'll be a lot of fun, hopefully not tooo exhausting. I visited Nathan and Kristen in Coolidge, then over to Jon in peirpont. The other girl on his floor is a friend of mine from the autumn event who I belive is named WWhitney(?), but she is very cool so I can't wait to see them again. Aside form that I get to see Mike M and Kerry tonight (yay!) and then gonna wait for all those other slackers to move in (and check them in in all my RA glory). I do not know any residents of JA this year, so I get all new friends... hehehehehe.. although you all come first, of course. Considering so many people are off campus I have got to find time to check out their new pads, IM io something with the addresses out there in puffton/apartment/grown up land.
Sooo excited to be back, miss everyone from home (but mostly just hope they are having a great time), gonna send letters like a fiend this year I promise. OK, well I'll update because I finally have UNLIMITED internet access. Adios amigos.

Well hey there all you guys who have been anxiously awaiting the newest installment of my live journal, sorry to have taken so long, but summer was pretty busy. Fun though, always fun. Basically I have been working everyday at Cafe Montmartre, but alas, today was my final day there. I promised I would be a customer on friday right before I leave for NY to visit Daniella. It was really fun, I like waiting tables a lot, maybe if I need some extra cash at school I could hunt for one of those gigs. I guess I am gonna miss everyone that worked there, especially Francisco and Manuel, those crazy spanish men. Ahn asked me if I was gonna come back, and I don't know, because frankly the money was great and I would love to, but I also wanna try my hand at NSP. I guess time will tell, but mostly it depends on how the horsey is doing.
As for that crazy creature, Annie and I battled Lyme's disease, had some shoeing issues, went on long trail rides and she once again proved to me why I love her so much. She's a mad woman, and i love her for it. I am gonna mis my horsey so much again, and yes I know, I am quite the loser. Not to say I am not gonna miss my friends, but I know they are having a good time at school.
Jackie leaves tomorrow so we are gonna hang out tonight and say goodbye again. Its really hardest to say goodbye to your best friends, but I know jackie is a wild girl, and I only wish I wa sthere to see it;) Good luck you guys, see ya in three months.
And yeah, I can't wait to go back to the zoo. August 24th for RA training. SOOOO excited. If anyone is around then we gotta hang out, I miss everyone. When I was up visiting in July I was just wayy too excited for everyone to come back. hehehehe (devilish laugh)
So yeah, to wrap up summer: Worked all day and all night, got in a few good parties, made some good new friends, lived at the barn for a bit, visited Mass for a time, played hostess to Jeff, got my AFAA certification, went shooting like a good hick, raised nearly no money for homecoming (damned companies...), but had a blast. Hasta luego amigos.

So lets see.... My summer has been good. Typically, I work five days a week at Cafe Monmarte for lunch, I try and go to the gym, have started kickboxing again, I am not riding as much as I would like but with a combination of hot weather and no time I can't do much. Mostly I am bummed that I hardly get to see my own pony, although she looks awesome and is doing great. I went out to burnside and rode her the other day, and for fun jumped around a three foot course. She did it like a pro, but of course she would, she's mine:)
I can;t wait to go visit people I am missing, obviously the umassers, my engaged siblings across the country and my friends that are close by but I have not seen in a while. Give me a call (I finally have my cell as of wed at 4pm!). Well, hopefully I will update this again sometime soon.... Later!

There are too many damned cicadas. Stupid bugs are way too loud and ugly and just plain bad. Massachusetts, consider yourself lucky.
I AM HOME I AM HOME I AM HOME. Frankly, the big empty house is kinda lonely, everything is way too far away, but I am so glad to be back with my friends. Come to my house tonight! I want to have a party since its already boring!
Saw my pony today. She looks awesome, she's as sweet as ever and I am gonna ride tomorrow. I love my horsey soo much and I wish I could take her to school with me. Maybe junior or senior year. Maybe, probably no though, shes doesn't like the cold. Wow, yeah, I am obsessed with my horsey. Its good to be back.
Its also very humid and hot, so not jogging outside. Got gym membership though, thats a good time, hopefully I will find some time to get out there. Tomorrow= Kim going to her many jobs and setting up a work schedule. Good stuff. Hope everyone is happy at home:)

So by decree of Miss Maggie I am updating my blog for what may be the last time this semester. Congratulations everyone who has made it through this year. With only a few exceptions(you damned communication majors), I know everyone has worked their asses off. Finals are upon us, and I get to take mine these next three days. Good luck everyone, and have some fabulous summers. Can't wait until next year, its gonna be a good time I know it.
So in reflection of this past year, all I have got to say is that I can't even believe the time I had. That was a trip. Ever since I got here I have made the best friends I can imagine, and everyone has been so nice to me. Thanks, it means a lot. From the leadership conference to finals week, I don't even know where to begin, and I don't feel like I could since I would be bound to leave something out. That would be a shame since all the memories I have accumulated deserve far more than a mere mention. Hopefully i am in enough of your fond memories that you won't be forgetting me on those hot summer days and *steamy* summer nights. I am gonna miss Massachusetts this summer, not only the people but the weather, how come we only get it when its gross?? Oh well, that just means we find new ways to stay warm... *Mischievous giggle*. Have fun on the Cape, in the City, at NSP, in Western Mass, Central Mass(Justin and Abi representing), or where ever else you may find yourself. And everyone better be expecting some drunken phone calls! I know I will be.
But I am looking forward to next year a lot. Having my own double single is gonna be a blast(although I do get lonely so PLEASE come visit me on the 10th floor JA), can't wait for training, my INSANE schedule, runnin' amuck on campus AGAIN, starting our kickass club, having everyone back from overseas and them having their own houses(!!!!!!), and just being back where everyone think you live on a farm. Goodbye to all those who we are losing to other schools, come back and play because no one does it quite like Umass.
Have a good one, no, make that a great one.

Flipping through my english notebook I saw an entry we were asked to write a long time ago(you know, like february?). I asked what you think people's first opinions of you are, and whther or not you would want to what people thought of you if you had he chance. I think its a really good question. Personally I would like to know what people think of me and how I come off at first sight. Not that it would change how I act, I mean I am kinda stubborn like that, but just so I actually knew. I was just wondering if anyone else would chose to know, or if you wouldn't want to. Part of the question was also what your roommate thought of you, and needless to say I think she thought I was crazy. Because I am... (hahahahahahahahaha!!!)

So earlier I posted an entry with severe ramifications even I had not expected. My poor friend sarah ran off to double lock her doors and *possibly* try and dig a moat around her apartment after reading it. The poor girl, she thinks hell is freezing over. So for the sake of national security I deleted it. The world is not in fact coming to an end. I am sorry Sarah, its gonna be alright...

Guess what today is!!! Well for one thing it is beautiful, its saturday, and its WMZQfest. Although this last part may not mean too much for all of you out there in UMass land, but its about the best country concert in the whole world. I, as it so happens, am not there. Thats not cool. Amanda is going, and I hope you have a lot of fun, look really skanky just for me ok! And make friends with lots of sketchy cowboy types! I, on the other hand, get to study for my two test next week, write a paper and do a take home exam. Boo to schoolwork, but its only two more weeks! And I get the house to myself for 4 days when I come home! But I'll probably be at the barn... YAY! For real, I can't wait:)
Last night was quite the event. Maggie, Daniella, Kevin, Chance, RJ, RJ's friend from home and Nathan all went to Sig Ep. Last time I was at that frat those two girls of mine got arrested, no arrests last night though. And, I remember it all this time... Oh yeah. But first we went to Nathan's up in OHill and hung out with a bunch of girls that are gonna be living in Daniella and Maggie's building next year, all very nice girls. Then a lot of funny things happened in our weird drunken stupor. For one thing the three of us all started dancing around our shoes and pocketbooks on the third floor of Grayson, and we got three boys to join right in. Thats crazy Dane Cook really got to everyone. The frat was rather uneventful, but we skipped back to Grayson singing "We're off to see the wizard" at the top of our lungs, then spun around in circles yelling "BOOGIE!" We're really cool. Upon coming back we just all hung out, watched a movie, saw way too much of Mitch's bare ass, fell asleep in Sam's bed and Maggie put on fake tanner. DO NOT USE THE LOREAL FAKE TANNER. Just don't.
I've started to pack some stuff up but I ahve no idea how I am gonna do this. I ahve way to much stuff. I will send some back home ASAP, well actually when I finished my mom's mother's day present, my stupid ginormous printer broke so I can't do it by myself. But its still really cute. Gotta get that done soon, and all my work, oh its sooo close to over.
I am gonna miss everyone so much over the summer. Every single person I know here has been so nice to me I really appreciate it and I will try and call all of you sometime or another. Looking back, this year was probably a little too exciteing for its own good... Naw, its was just exciting enough.
By the way, if anyone could help me out I would REALLY appreciate it. I don't want to drive back home on friday afternoon because of traffic so I was wondering if anyone is staying here friday night and I could stay with them. I am a really good roommate, you won't even know I am there! But seriously, that would be awesome.
Have a great weekend everyone!

Wow these next few weeks are gonna be wild. Rob, Dejah, Marge and I are gonna be working on our chem project all afternoon, hopefully so that we can have an amazing poster project to present to the chem department on thursday! Prozac is our subject, oh yeah, that perky little white pill. It seems to be a major week of chemistry. Got a test monday, OWLs, a take home test, oh goodness...
On top of all of this I also have an english essay to write, one which I have no idea what to write about. Its gonna be a longggggg night tonight. Quizes, tests, psychology, the list goes on and on. But on the bright side I met my RD and ARDs from JA and they are soo sweet, next year is looking good at least. lotsa work, but I have my own room! I bet I'll get lonely though, so everyone should feel free to stop by.
On a side note I really like the whole mystic tan thing. Its a very good concept, I know Maggie approves too. It made us two pale chicks into very tan ones, without any skin cancer! Thats sounds good to me, I can't tan, I actually have to wear perscription sunscreen, yes I know, I am a loser. But alas, I am tan!

Well howdy everyone! Its been a while I know, so I promise I will make this one a good one. Well to start out I can tell a kinda funny story. I woke up Monday morning with one eye swollen shut and the other one swollen and bloodshot. Not a pretty sight if I must say so myself. So I went to health services in leiu of chemistry, I am sure BV woulda sent me off anyway, I was looking pretty rough. But thats all good now, I look normal again(if I am normal, well, who are we kidding...).
I got the RA job and and uber excited about it. I am working in JA next year, and I betcha they are gonna put me on a TAP floor. More good times with the TAPpers maybe. I'll make sure these ones have a great time. I was all sortsa nervous since I had run into a bunch of friends before going to the CDD, and all had gotten on the waiting pool. This was shocking since they were all great candidates. Whatever, I am sure some will get picked up. Quite a few deserving people also got it, and congrats you guys. And for everyone else, don't give up faith!
This weekend is the Bowl Weekend and Nathan is making me go up on the hill for the dance. Still can't dance, I wish people would believe me. But I guess I could do it for like 5minutes and have them make me stop. Now thats a plan! Maggie Cat and I are off to fake n' bake friday afternoon, although the fake tanner we put on this past weekend really hasn't faded yet... My crazy skin holds on to stuff wayyyyyy too well. So come see tan Kim, it'll be a once in a lifetime experience. I hope I don't end up looking like 90% of the girls I see around here, but then again I am a real blonde(hence the moments). Saturday may bring about a pimps and hoes party, my first I might add. However, if Andrew jackie caitlin and everyone remember, I definitally can play the part *wink wink*. Haha, this could be trouble....
I'll get back to you with the results.
