The Dog Days are Over

Just when you think things can't get any worse, somehow they always seem to find a way. I feel like since I returned to Philly after Christmas, my personal life has been in an epic downward spiral. It seems to me that no matter how hard I try or what I do, everything is wrong. So now I am making a life changing decision. I need to live my life 100% for me. I always worry so much about other people, how they are, what they think. But after three years of college and many failed relationships, both romantic and friendly, I need to put the entire focus on me. With all of these failed relationships there is one common denominator, me. I desperately need to do some growing up, find some new perspective, and really get my priorities in order. This is going to be an uphill battle in the rain, and there will be so many temptations along the way to revert back to the familiar, but I know in my heart of hearts that I can get through all the whisperings and back-stabbing to truly get to adulthood.

I can count on you like 4, 3, 2..

Sex and the City got it right when the fab four declared that your girlfriends can be your soulmates. Now at the rich, ripe age of 20, I know this statement to be truer than true. Your friends are your soulmates and your family at a certain point in your life. They are the people you laugh and cry with, celebrate holidays and deal with defeats with. I have been deaing with some personal issues as of late, specifically relationship issues, and my friends have been there to watch me cry, help me laugh, and drown my sorrows. I just have to say, my friends are so wonderful and I would do anything for them. Even driving through a northeastern blizzard.

Words from the Purple Couch

2011. You have already kicked my butt. I feel as though I'm quite the optimistic person, but it seems to me that so much around me is changing and not for the better. BUT, I will not let the less than mediocre start to this year take me down. And while it might be a week or so late I'm making my resolutions well known, so everyone out there can keep me in check :)

1. Eat healthier..its just necessary
2. I'm ony allowed to wear pants 3 days a week, unless its too unbearably cold
3. Take time to blog EVERYDAY
4. Study for the LSATs daily
5. Be smarter about school
6. Be smarter about all my relationships

I'm Backk!!

The rumors are true..I'm back. Its been far to long since the last time I wrote, but that is all going to change. This past semester was a chanleging one, especially since I was computerless (thus the no blogging). But I also had many great adventures that I will do a great unjustice to putting them in a list. But here is goes..

1. Met a boy
2. Was a recruitment councelor
3. Hated my classes
4. Started my job
5. Got a LITTLEE
6. School got harder
7. Work got harder
8. Crush Party
9. Formal
10. Lost the boy
11. Finals
12. Christmas

And now you know what happened Fall 2010..but now I have Sping 2011 to look forward to :)

In an effort of procrastination

It is only the third week of school, and already I'm putting off my work.

Not really. Maybe kind of. But there are some really important things in life that must be done. Like watching my beloved Ravens on MNF with my best friend/roommate. As well as persuading her to create a blog. Because that is what the world truly needs, another blog, especially one from my best friend who is quite honestly one of the funniest people I've ever met, and I'm not just saying that because I'm biased. We have this plan to party with Chelsea Handler; I'm not quite sure what that has to do with best friend being funny, but its a solid plan.

So world, I'm sorry to report that life has been fairly boring. Just school, being an undercover sorority ninja, and the new boy. The end.

Luckily, only 11 very short days until I can publicly be friends with my sisterssss!!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

L'Shana Tova!!!!

Happy Jewish New Year to all of you out there! As you all should know by now, I'm well on my way to becoming Jewish, and today marks the new year, the year in which I'm determined to make my official conversion. And since its a new year, I'm going to do what you're supposed to do, make resolutions. So here we go:

• Love myself everyday
• Be the best daughter/sister/friend I can be
• Go to the gym more
• Make Dean's List
• Stop biting my nails
• Do everything 110%

And obviously the most important thing to do this year, become a real Jew.

Oh the be young and in like..

I feel like I'm always apologizing for never writing, but once again I must say I'm sorry. I really thought once I was back at school I would be able to write all the time, and I would have things to write about too. And this assumption was very true with the latter, but I have not had the time to even stop and breathe, let alone blog.

As this is the beginning of yet another school year I find myself meeting all kinds of new people. Specifically, lovely young men. More specifically, one particular lovely young man. I won't go into detail because you never want to jinx things, but this has been one fabulous week, and I'm so excited.

But in other news, there are now only 19 days until I can publicly acknowledge and be a part of my sorority again. And I'm seriously counting down the minutes until then. Just to let you all know, I'm participating in sorority recruitment not as a member of my organization but as a Rho Gamma, which means I assist the potential new members go through recruitment and make the decision that is best for them. And a major part of that is the the potential new members cannot know what organization the Rho Gammas are in until they accept their bids. SOOO if any girl is out there thinking about going out for sorority recruitment I would say absolutely try it, it is the experience of a lifetime, and even if you find out its not for you, you can at least say you tried, and that is what's important!
