April Madness

We're coming to the end of March and while I'm happy school is almost over, I am dreading the month of April. April may be the death of me because I will be extremely busy. It is always the busiest time of the year for school work because most teachers have days in April as final due dates. A run-down of my crazy month of April follows. Since I am an Education major, all of my field hours will need to be done in this month. I am already stressing out and March isn't even over. I am also the cheerleading captain for next year and we will be holding try-outs for three days in April. Many induction ceremonies will take place that I will have to attend and I am an Orientation leader for the incoming freshmen so I will have workshops for those as well. For my sorority, I was elected for the social chair position, in which I plan the parties and let me tell you, there are a lot in April. My nieces birthday is also in April, in which I will have to find time to go home for.
On the other hand, I do not want April to end because many of my close friends and boyfriend will be graduating. I have some things to look forward to though. For example, I will be going on vacation for the first time since I was 5 years old and I cannot wait. Although I will be taking classes during May, many of my friends will be here also taking classes (which may make it less painful). I am excited to be an orientation leader and that will take place in June. I cannot believe how fast time goes. I will be a senior next year and honestly, I don't think I'm ready to leave at times. But I guess I really can't stay here forever and have to grow up sometime....

Oh and my bracket for March Madness has gone down the drain..oh well there's always next year :)

Random Thoughts

I am currently in the last few weeks of March and the weeks are just getting busier and busier. I cannot wait until summertime so some of this stress is gone. Spring break has come and gone but I wish I was still at home still. One movie I watched over break was that Julie Julia movie, where the woman follows through the older woman's cookbook and keeps a blog about it. It reminded me of the blog I am keeping, even though I am doing mine for a college class. I thought the movie was cute and didn't realize it was possible to get that much fame for a blog (something I know I will never get from this :)). I have never kept a diary, so this is something new for me.
I titled this post Random Thoughts, because truly, that's what it is and will be. I am loving this weather we have here in Ohio and do not want to even think about snow.. which has been projected. I'm the type of girl who would love to wear shorts and flip flops all year long and love when it starts to warm up. The smell of people grilling and the sound of people outside, listening to music, playing cornhole and other games just makes life more fun I think. The nice weather makes me want to spend all my time outside, which is not too great when I'm trying to do some homework. March Madness is currently going on and I love watching basketball. My boyfriend,Jeremy, made me fill out a bracket for the first time and I'm not doing to bad on it. Maybe by my next post, I can see how things might work out and let anyone out there reading this know. I would like to hear who everyone has to win the National Championship game. In true Ohio spirit, GO BUCKS !

Spring Break has Arrived!

Well everyone, spring break has finally arrived. While it is still winter, since we have our break at the beginning of March, the weather has not been too terrible. The past few days it has been in the 50s. I'm over winter and ready for summertime though. I'm currently on day 2 of spring break and it's just as boring as expected. It is supposed to be a "break" but I'm too busy stressing out about homework and trying to get as much done as I can. Too bad I'm already behind in my own schedule. I don't see how some of these people who actually take trips can get all of their schoolwork done. As much as I would have liked to have been on a beach, I know I have way to much to do.
It is my birthday tomorrow and I will most likely be doing homework. My family plans to celebrate my birthday along with my two older sisters' birthdays this weekend since we were all born on the same day. My boyfriend is planning on coming up this weekend to spend time with me. I am excited to see everyone but in the back of my mind, I can't help but think of all the work I could get done in those two days that everyone will be here. The next two months of school will be the busiest yet. I will have field hours to finish for my education classes along with finals and other big projects. So close yet so far to summertime. On the bright side, I found out I will be cheerleading captain next year at my University and I was chosen as one of the Orientation leaders to welcome freshmen and show them around campus, which is something that I always wanted to do. Pledging is also over with, so hopefully I will get back some of the time that I spent doing that.
