Room Progess

Well the room redo has been slightly delayed due to spontaneous trips to California. (You're welcome Simon and Reagan!) So I haven't finished taking everything off the walls or moved furniture or painted anything.....or even bought paint. Haha However, I DID buy towels today! Target had wonderful towels in the perfect colors for 5 bucks! Who could resist that deal? So I went ahead and got 2 sets: one in black and one in turquoise. I can buy more later. This is just enough to get me started. Plus I got the rest of my frames. Well all but one. They were sold out of the biggest one I needed but they'll have it in stock and another sale in a week or two, so I'm not too concerned about it. The search is on for good spare sheets and curtains. I already have the bedset picked out I'm just waiting for it to possibly go on sale or for a coupon to come. Don't judge my smart shopping! I'm not a rich kid; I have to EARN my own money now. So far Target has been my best bet in things I like at a reasonable price. I'll probably end up getting most of the stuff there. What a surprise - Target is my best friend! Is there any wonder why I love Target? It never does me wrong...well sometimes it does like when it discontinues the picture of my dreams before I had 100 dollars to blow on it. But tha'ts aobut the only time it has really done me wrong. I like it better than Wal-Mart. I think it has better choices that definitely look nicer. Maybe it's just me. Anyway, I'm super excited to be moving forward with the remodel. My goal for the weekend is to finish stripping the walls and start packing stuff in boxes to temporarily move into Brian's old room. Until then...

School's In...for Summer

One would probably think that any normal person would not be excited to attending school during the summer. But when have I ever been normal? And "normally" people get to go to school during the Fall and Spring so it's not exciting to go in the Summer. I, however, do not get this priviledge of normalicy so I'm super excited to be able to attend REAL college for once!

I am taking Fitness Walking and Human Biology with a lab. I have successfully survived my first 2 days and so far I LOVE IT! There are people...to interact with....that aren't under the age of 5! Haha. I haven't exactly made friends yet but I have met some people and had some conversations. The homework hasn't been too bad.....yet! So I'm totally loving it! Except the getting up early part. And the sitting for 2 hours during Bio lecture in the super small desk that is far from comfortable. And the annoying smarty-pants that everyone rolls their eyes at. (It's not me btw.) And the girl with the permanent stank face. But other than that, I LOVE IT! Haha.

So yeah for potential friends and possible boyfriends. :D
