Cause I don't have the jitters at all, so I thought I'd just post some general things online -- aka, Twitter, but without using twitter. :P sorry for trying to come up with some not-boring blog title! So this week has gone pretty greatly, I love how I've had little to complain about lately :D yay for all those hard papers being past me. In fact, this morning I turned in the Final Final draft of my Historical Methods paper on Andrew Johnson -- yay for that being done and gone! And then my U.S. History class got out 45 minutes early after she handed us a practice final that will be the same as the final, sans ten questions so woop woop! Good day :D Bizarre News Story of the Day: Beyonce, scheduled to make appearance at museum in Austria, decides to go shopping instead. But sends a look-a-like to Museum . Quote of the Day: More excellent English from my senile U.S. History teacher: Heading for Notes: "How is Reconstruction work?" (um, how about "How DID reconst...

Now for some 'bonus features'esque pictures you won't see on Facebook! So Sunday morning for Breakfast, the Key Club Governor Zach was handing out bunches of awards. Me and Jen quickly caught on that in every single picture he had this funny look with his teeth showing and eyes closed - lol, no offense Zach, but we found it entertaining. EVERY picture! So we decided to take some "Zach pix" of our own... Yeah, I won't tell the story of the whole weekend verbatim... but those are some interesting tidbits. Quote of the Day: There were a bunch of good quotes this weekend! "So I kind of imagine a hamster on a wheel in everyone's head... ...Natalie's hamster is overworked..." - Jason "Hi I'm Andrew De- *COUGH COUGH COUGH..... COUGH COUGH* ... Sorry, Melissa gave me this cold-thing..." (Audience laughs, at suggestion of 'cold sore' i guess, lol) "I can see service from my house!" - Me, after it was noted to me that...

So it's Friday, and tons have gone on in the past week I should've wrote individual blogs about but urg at my procrastination! I mean, Tuesday you've got the fun of the meeting, Wednesday was just crazy-crazy! I should've wrote a blog that night, I had soooo much homework x_x and then I had to go to the statehouse because I wanted to. But that crazy week is over, and now a new crazy week begins! School is quickly coming to an end! But this weekend (today actually) I've got Key Club DCON, then next week is the end of the year banquet which my mom is coming to! Okay, so real quick thing about my mom: She Has No Fashion Sense . I'm sorry, but it's really been pretty embarrassing sometimes going out into public with her. It's not even she has her own wacky fashion sense, she just wears really disgusting destroyed clothes all the time, even to fancy things. So a couple years ago, before we'd go somewhere important I just decided I'd help her pick out ...

Hello, My Fellow Americans. Well it seems I've been busy without a moment to rest for the past three weeks, but finally I have a brief couple hours to rest and relax for once, without any particular impending deadlines. This is a good week! Most of my classes have been watching movies, no particular due dates this week, and David's visit went well considering. There were some snag/annoyances, like when he got here, when I lost him, his presense which annoys me, and the stuff with Grandpa's, but overall it was a good trip. I think I even convinced him to come to Akron, after two years of break, and a year at Tri-C. We'll see if he goes to college yet. I dunno, I'm not convinced. But moving on! Downtown Buffalo (from afar) Millard Fillmore's home! (Closed for season :/) Niagara Falls, NY. (And Canada in the background.) Real quick: So this weekend I went to Niagara Falls and Buffalo which was AWESOME! I love travel n.n and Presidential historical sites! ERG, I cam...

Oh Hillary. Oh Hillary, Hillary, Hillary. :-( I hereby nominate this for UGLIEST pantsuit of the year (to date.) This... this is just bad. n.n but on the bright side -- I found a bunch of Hillary Clinton-focused blogs I've been following that are pretty entertaining and informative about both what she's up to and foreign policy! "All Things Hillary" for example examines the policies, politics and pantsuits of my favorite Secretary of State. Speaking of foreign policy, I frettingly turned in another portion of my study abroad application this week (I've been pseudo-accepted, twice now, I guess it's not official til I land in Seoul?) But that's just one of the things I've had to do - and included an essay about myself for the Korean univeristy to learn about me. Also, I'm strongly considering taking Japanese I next semester - it's already on my schedule now, unless I decide to drop it. Why Learn Japanese, you ask? Well, for a number of reasons ...

No major papers that I *have* to write! Woop! Some I may to get ahead a tiny bit, but other than that a slow night thankfully. This past weekend has been pretty exciting! Friday night went to the Wooster Relay for Life (last minute plans, just got the email and said "Hey why not.") with the G-Gang. It's nice to go on a road trip with Brit, Sarah and Kayla -- especially since our spring break New York plans were canceled much to my chagrin :(. Had a rave/dance party in the backseat to the music on my phone, lol. Then had the panty party on Saturday, which was a major success! Thanks to everyone who came! I'm glad we got a great number of Circle K'rs, and a pretty good number of new people. Afterwards, got to see the "Dog Sees God" play Mike has been talking about for quite a while. It was actually really good, clearly a "moral of the story" play while definitly not being sappy. Haha, there was at least one character in particularl that I found c...

Haha, not that change was needed, Patsy was an excellent President. But at the same time, I look forward to my administration and hope not to let Akron or Ohio CKI down! So I'm kinda feeling very Circle K-popular right now, and I'll try not to let it go to my head and just have this one brag-atory blog and then get to homework and you won't have to worry about me thinking I'm more important than I am. Cause at the end of the day, the post-it I put on my wall is true: "Circle K is just a college club." Something I hope I remember over the next year. Bragging: If you think I'm too arrogant already, skip this paragraph. 09-10 Akron Club President, woop woop! Looking forward to running those meetings and excitin the populace! Got alot of recruiting to do to, and suggesting some new ideas to my great board of officers and chairs. Then you've got me appointed District President(s) Council Chair, so glad to be on the District Board! Board trainer was a blast,...
