If you are into conspircies, distrust the government, or just enjoy documentaries...definitely check out www.loosechange911.com. It links the 9/11 attacks to the United States government with rather compelling evidence. It's worth the time (it's an hour and 20 minutes)...
Today has been a thinking day. I finished Ender's Game, watched a show where an Atheist visited a Christian house and in turn, found out how much society hates/distrusts us, and watched this video...my head hurts.

I suppose it's time for a post.
Last weekend I went out of town with Nick's family. We went to Buffalo River to go canoeing. I had to meet extended family and hang out with them! It was scary, but I survived. They are really fun people. I enjoyed myself, however, Nick and I are not very good at steering a canoe. We both got a lot better though. We canoed 10 miles, so it was all day long. I got sunburned, but not as bad as poor little Nick. I burned about as bad as I ever burn though, so it was no bueno. I stayed in Tulsa Sunday night and drove back EARLY Monday morning. I was so busy Monday that I had to stay up late and wake up early to finish my stuff for Tuesday. Two 6 a.m.'s in a row...sucky! I'm really tired, and I have some time today, so I think I'll nap!
I just signed another year long lease with Summer Pointe. Was that a good idea? Overall, I'm happy with them and I love my apartment and hate moving...BUT there is a chance I will study abroad, and I dont want to break my lease. It will cost me $560! But for a shorter lease, I would have had to pay an extra $30 a month, which is less if I decide to go, but more if I can't/don't. I didn't know. Whatever. This is what I did.
I'm having second thoughts about studying abroad. Well, for a semester. It's completely terrifying and the closer it gets to deciding the more stressed I get and the more I want to back out. First, I have to worry about all my furniture and stuff. Second, I have to worry about the extra financial burden. Thirdly, I have to worry about being in a new country where I don't know the language or anything and having to take classes in Spanish! Fourthly, I have to worry about leaving my family, friends, and wonderful boyfriend behind for 6 months! That is a long time. It's all so scary, but it could be one of the most amazing experiences ever. Something I'd love to do...but not. I'd learn a new language (really well) and I'd live somewhere other than Oklahoma, USA. But what if I hate it? What if I don't make any friends and stay stressed and confused for so long? I'll miss everyone and OU. Plus! It will put me more behind in journalism, because I won't be able to take any of those in Spain. That's not good either. I might have to stay an extra semester on campus...which is more money. On the other hand, I don't want to regret having this opportunity and not using it. I mean, this is the time in my life when I can, before I get married and have children and other obligations. This is when I CAN do something like this, I don't want to blow it cuz I'm a pussy. Another thing I've thought about is what if I come back all different? Will I lose friends, either because they don't like the new me, or they've moved on while I was away? Why does this continue to get harder and more confusing? Any advice?

So yesterday, I was bad. I wasted time. I didn't get a whole lot done. I was mad at myself. I said it wouldn't happen again (at least not for a while) and I do promise to be better...but I'm not sure I have the will today.
I went to go get my AC fixed today. I couldn't make it there until after 4 and they close at 6. He said they couldn't help me tonight and that I'd have to come back, pay $45 for them to see whats wrong, and then come back later to get whatever's wrong fixed. All this news really stressed me out. I don't have the cash and I, in my ignorance, expected I could just tell them I was out of coolant, they could put some in and charge me like 20 bucks...but thats not the case. Dad said I should go with it and that I wasn't getting ripped. It just took a while the news to sink in and for me to accept it. I now have to spend time there tomorrow before coming home to see my baby and my family. That's disappointing...but I guess I won't be hot...
I got a Java Latte at work after. Very nice. Really though, get the coffee and add heath bar...it's amazing.
My wrist is hurting again. I don't know what triggered it. It could have been anything...scooping for 4 nights straight, writing, typing or lifting weights...either way, I had a brace today. A girl told me she was sorry that it happened, and I just kinda strugged. I realized I wasn't bitter...it was just something I have and have to deal with. I thought it was pretty mature of me. (I realize this isn't some major disorder or anything...just a pain the ass every couple months...) I probably shouldn't be typing.
Tonight I'm going to shower and go to bed early. I can't wait.

Man, I love my boyfriend.
I hate him leaving...only 8 more weeks!!!
Yesterday was fabulous! He came to "surprise" me on Thursday night, but I had work and then class the next morning. After class, we just hung out, watched a little Friends and then talked for hours! We went for a walk and watched most of Old School. Then, to be dorky and celebrate our year anniversary from our first date...(okay, we don't actually know the date, but it was the night of Summer Song, when we went to see our kids sing and then I invited him to a movie and he paid. Our first date. We went to IHOP and saw Mr. and Mrs. Smith. This week was Summer Song and the performance was last night. I think it is a little early this year, so we are off...but its when we chose to celebrate.)...he went to put on the shirt he wore that first night, and I went to put on mine, and we watched Mr. and Mrs. Smith together on my couch. It couldn't have been more nerdy, but it couldn't have been better. Isn't he fabulous?

Bummer. I just swallowed my peach jolly rancher! I was throughly enjoying it too.
Besides that little incident, I've had a great day. Much better than yesterday.
Classes went well. I have a test tomorrow in Spanish, that's no bueno, but I will do well. Estudie.
Basically, I had a good day. More than compensated for yesterday. I was just smiling periodically for no reason. I would catch myself and think, 'what are you so giddy for?' and it just made me happier.
I like not working in the evenings...

So, I was turning off the TV when I heard a reporter say something about it being 6/6/6 and then he said, "is it the end of the world? Hear what Oklahomans think tonight at 9." Um...does anyone actually think it is??? It wasn't 100 years ago or 200 or any of the other 1800 years before that...Isn't 666 just something pulled out of someone's ass as the devil number? I highly doubt there will be any correlation between the end of the world and a number. Lets be reasonable people.

I went to talk to the Summer Pointe people today and again, it seems as if it's fixed, but who knows. I'm not sure everyone is communicating well with one another. We'll see. Cross your fingers!
I woke up this morning to my alarm thinking, "isn't it the weekend?" but no, no, it is only Tuesday. Wow, this will be a long week. Today hasn't been good overall. I'm tired. I was bored in my classes. Spanish might be hard. I don't know. She talks in Spanish and really fast. Half the time, I don't know what is going on. I got really nauseated during my broadcast class. During break I went into the bathroom and I was really pale. I guess it blew over, about the time I finally got to leave that class. Maybe I'm allergic to broadcasting. That would be interesting. Well, I just barely missed the bus, meaning I had to stay on campus another hour! Stupid buses. Anyway, I have a headache and I just feel really run down. Work tonight should be interesting. There is a lot I should/could be doing, but I just want to sit and relax. Maybe I'll feel better tomorrow...or next month.
Oh, and am I being really haughty by saying that I think my broadcast teacher was wrong on a few grammar points? I just disagree and he would just say "now you are arguing semantics." Context would have helped on one. He broke the sentence up as meaning something different than me. For another, he used the Redskin Special Teams as plural and two guys and I aruged that it was a singular thing...but he said that was just football semantics. Whatever, right?
Anyway, today should be a happy day. It's 666 and I'm supposed to be the spawn of Satan, right? Of course, I'm also supposed to be the next Jesus, so maybe that's the problem. Either way, may the force be with us all today...

I'm having issues with Summer Pointe. I paid rent early (on the 25th) because I would be out of town. There was an issue with my check so they left a copy of it with a note out (on the 30th) saying I needed to re-pay rent by the 1st. I was out of town until the 4th and they did not contact me any other way. By then, I had gotten a notice saying I owed $25 extra for being late. That is bullshit because I wasn't late. I was out of town and given no notice. They had plenty of time. Anyway, I went in today and talk to them and they said I could just write another check, so I did. When I got home from work, I find another letter, harshly stating that I've failed to pay the $435 and need to pay by the 6th! WTF? First off, they give me NO NOTICE. Secondly, I've paid and the extra $25 is BS. Thirdly, they left a copy of my check with all my personal information out of anyone to see for 6 DAYS until I got home. They office isn't agreeing with what my letters are saying and I now have to go in to bitch again. Why am I always the one getting screwed?

This has to be quick...cuz guess what? I'm busy!
I just got home from class. Spanish gave me a lot of homework, but shouldn't be too bad. Writing for Broadcast should be pretty easy too. I worked out at the Huff for the first time in months. Very nice. I feel...healthy. I have to work at 6.
Gotsta do homework, shower and pay bills. I want to go shopping because I have no food. I'd also like to repaint my nails. Reading would be nice too.
I saw United 93 yesterday. I fit it in before I left Tulsa because I really wanted to see it in the theaters and its not playing in Norman. I cried. Hurry and see it if you want to! I'm glad I saw it.
Oh, hey, remind me to relax periodically this month. I'm really busy and I'd like not to get too stressed. I determined my acne problem is stress related because it cleared up a lot over the past few weeks, when I had no school.
Goodbye my faithful readers.

I've been distant and gone for a while. This I know. I've been in Tulsa where computer access is limited.
I've been lazy and it's been great. I was there for 6 days and didn't finish 5 loads of laundry. Only three. Yeah. It's been fabulous.
I drove into Norman for the evening. I'm leaving again tomorrow morning/early afternoon. I came in for a "manadory" Daily meeting where I just went through training I did in January...I don't even think I HAD to be here. I'm going back to Tulsa because Nick and I are leaving for Branson tomorrow. We were just going to go camping at Lake Thunderbird, but then his dad suggested Branson. Nick has a season pass to Silver Dollar City and can bring 1 person for free this weekend...good deal, eh? Cheap vaca.
We made reservations for Padre in August! I'm excited! That one is costing us more than Branson (quite a bit) but is still realively cheap! The hotel (Travel Lodge) isn't on the beach but its a short, private walk. We have a mini-suite with a jacuzzi for the same price as any other room. Free continental breakfast with hot waffles...good deal! So excited.
It's good to be back in Norman. I didn't realize I missed it until I got here. I wish I could spent more time here...but Tulsa is great too and has people Norman just can't compare to!!!
Have a great weekend!

Done with school before 10 a.m. Then work for 6 hours.
I studied a lot today. I don't want to anymore. I'm not getting a 100 on this final. Out of 52 flash cards, I know 13 completely. Well...another B.
But I got an A in Jack's class!!! So...whatever.
Fred Astaire was boring on this day. He's a dancer.
"Boomer sooner...boomer sooner..." --Oklahoma Fans! We watched some highlight videos last night. I miss football!
Telling my mom of my new plan and her totally going for it! I was doing my composition for my final last night and I made this up and I'm so excited about it. Every Sunday, my family and Jamie's family are going to go over to my parents house and we will have a big lunch and then watch football! That is the best Sunday afternoon ever! We will work around Jamie's family and have dinner if church interferes...but yeah. Mom likes the idea. I just have to move back to Tulsa.
I swear, every other song is Johnny Cash now...

Two finals today. One more to go. I just have to make it through tomorrow...all day studying and a little Thursday morning...and work Thursday afternoon...
Hardy came over after my final. It's too bad Waddle couldn't stay. Anyway, I had fun. Now I have a crapload of Johnny Cash...but yeah. I totally beat him in Friends Trivia! Who is the Friends Trivia Queen...oh right, that's me.
I don't getta talk to Nick tomorrow! :-( Man, I miss him. I can't wait until the three weeks we have together starting next week!
"See, your penis is amazing!" --Me...He fixed my camera after I kinda...messed it up. It's the penis. They are magical fixing wands...;-p
Hanging out with Hardy. It's unfortunate that I can't have all these people around when I'm not busy...

Today sucked.
I studied all day. My eyes hurt. I'm so tired of studying and I have two point five more days of it.
And then I ruined the part of the day I had been looking forward to all day. My phone call with Nick. I only got 20 minutes and I ruined it by be preoccupied with other things. I'm sorry...I'm bummed out...I'm mad at myself. I didn't get my Nick fix for the day...
I did for real get a B in Soc. I would have gotten an A, I believe, but the attendence points don't count toward an A...
"Boys may come and boys may go, and that's alright you see..." --Madonna. Rather contradictory to my earlier statement about not getting my Nick fix.
My walk to ValueFoods to buy food... It was kinda expensive.

I didn't update last night because I didn't really have anything to say.
I still don't.
Nick came for the weekend and we went to see Walk the Line at Meacham. I really enjoyed it. I want to listen to Johnny Cash now. Saturday we sat around the house and went for a drive. He left that night and Jamie came over. She was in OKC for State. Jamie and I watched Empire Strikes Back...Yoda is creepy. We laughed a lot...until she fell asleep. Great movie though. Gotta love it.
Yesterday I studied...all day. Woot for finals...I don't have any today, so I will be studying all day again. No bueno. They shouldn't be too bad. Except history. I need to get a 100 on it just to get an 89.45%. Hmm...I'm going to do my best. My chances of getting bumped up increase the better I do, right?

On a completely random side note...I watched a new episode of That 70s Show...and I must say...I do NOT approve.
Donna has blonde hair...I knew this, but I don't have to be happy about it.
Eric is not there...but they still hang out in his basement and his parents are still featured. Donna is dating some random creepy guy that I don't like. Who the hell is he and where the hell is Eric? Donna stayed home from college to be with Eric...what happened?
Kelso is gone too.
Hyde has a mustache instead of a beard.
Jackie likes FEZ! What? The foreign kid?
But Greg and Peter Brady guest starred as gay lovers. That made it almost all better.
