Haha, just noticed that I'm on part of the UA website I didn't know I'd be on, with fellow student gov members Andrea (also graduated), Corey, and hasn't-been-in-student-gov-in-over-a-year former-senator Aaron. I don't even know who that other girl is. Glasses... that pic must have been taken pre-March 2011.

So while passing through the living room this morning, I noted that Betty White was the guest start on mom's watching of The View. Betty White is pretty much recognized as the matriarch of comedy these days, so as I often do, I checked Tumblr to see what kind of entertaining things they would have for her. I've wondered where this picture of Betty White with a gun comes from, turns out a second season episode of Boston Legal. I soon noticed several posts saying that they had "imagined Betty White as Mags..." and I did not know what that was, so I googled a bit, and Mags is I guess an older character in the Hunger Games . And I found this site that spelled out some other actresses Hunger Game-fans (do they have a name?) suggested for the role - and let me just say, that pretty much EVERY old-lady actress I like is on this page, hahaha! Prof. McGonagall is my favorite Harry Potter character. My Favorite Old Lady actresses: Maggie Smith [b. 1934] (Prof.

In another excellent social life decision, I've volunteered part of my early summer to assisting the Ohio District of Circle K by chairing the On-to-International-Convention committee. Since I'm going, I figure it makes sense to help out and offer what foreknowledge I can. But that means, alas, that my weekend has been eaten up with team building exercises and camp ground activities. Not to mention the two hour drive down, alone. Oh well, when I get back it's back to work, also celebrating Mother's Day and the season finale of Once Upon a Time that I am super excited for. Monday I really need to crack down though, it is just starting to sink in that ZOMG: I'm not on "vacation" so much as I have been released of all real responsibility. I am a free agent, loose in the world. I should be finding a legit career cause if my repose lasts a few months, there will not be a "oh well, maybe next year" -- August does not bring guaranteed employment/e

So, I don't think I've actually blogged about it yet -- but my new favorite TV show is "Once Upon a Time." Set in Storybrooke, Maine - it tells the tale of an evil queen who has magically cursed "all the fairy tale characters that you know and love" into real life, forgetting who they really are. Yadda yadda yadda, adventures drama romance and intrigue. My favorite character is by far the evil queen, Regina -- just everything about her character and acting is awesome. Plus her "reality" character is the Mayor of the City, which appeals to my political feels as well. But every morning after Once Upon a Time (OUAT) airs, I wonder: what fairy tale character would I be? I wonder no longer! In Storybrooke, Evil wears a Pantsuit To celebrate the completion of my Honors project (well, sortof) I was googling around and could not remember the actual story of Puss in Boots. I know the character, from Shrek, but I don't know what his original

" Sell your stuff on eBay and join the circus ." - College Aftermath.com An interesting suggestion. Well, I certainly don't plan to be one of those people who literally sells their life on eBay -- maybe it's time to shed some things weighing me down. Spring cleaning is just around the corner, ironically, as summer starts. I just wish I knew what I was going to need in my next life's chapter so I know not to get rid of something useful? Oh who am I kidding. We all know that whenever I need something I just go and buy a new one anyway. "...recognize that life after college is a time for you to finally pursue exactly what you want to do, on every level, and that there’s an infinite amount of choice. Have fun with it!"

I so rarely get the chance to blog lately, that will soon change though! In less than a week, my focus will shift dramatically into "get my summer on" mode! (Right now it's in Get my Diploma mode.) Pretty soon it will be daily adventures, sunbathing, grilling, bicycling, and a bunch of other things -- but for now, Academics. I just finished the last "assignment" of my undergraduate career (it was due March 25th. I kinda fell a bit behind on it.) But it's been turned in, and now the only school related responsibility is to finalize all the info for my Honors Project. (Also past due generally. I'm a bad person, alright, ya happy?!) But that's okay, I have like, the rest of the week to make sure that gets finished -- and if I can write that last assignment in generally 4-7 hours (19 pages) I'm sure I can pump this thing out in time. So there's that. I've still gotta make copies of pictures for my Aunt, get graduation all settled and take
