Tales of a Thursday

Isn't summer meant to be thrilling and fun, filled with parties and the beach? Well I have yet to encounter that this summer, and my time for crazy fun is coming to an end. I am sad to report that I will be returning to Baltimore for a few weeks this summer due to my lack of employment in Philadelphia. Sometimes its hard out here for a pimp....But on a happier note I get to spend my last few weeks living with my bestest friend in the whole wide world!!! Nothing like a little best friend bonding to make mt summertime blues go away :)

Another day on the purple couches...

My life is boring. This is not a complaint, but a statement. Sometimes we just need the familiar, the usual, and the mundane to keep us sane. I am one of those people who thrives on the familiar and the boring, I need schedules and predictability. Surprises are nice, but then again always having control of the situtaion is better. This little rant is brought to you today by my homelessness, a homelessness that will begin on June 1st. I am for lack of a better term "freaking out" that I will be in a box on the side of the road...after many long long months of searching for a homeland for the next few years. I will keep the world updated as we come down to the wire for move in day. :(

Ch-Ch-Changes

I just want to say thank you to one of my wonderful friends for reminding me every so often to return to this, my little corner of the universe. I have failed at blogging, and while part of me is sad about that, a larger part is happy because of why I have failed. When we last met, I was a very unhappy camper. I had had my heart pretty thoroughly broken by a boy, and then stomped on my one of my sisters. But fast forward today, and I am very happy. I have made some pretty serious life decisions, I've grown up, and I'm totally 100% happy as a clam. The most important thing that has changed as of recently is that I am no longer looking at a life in politics or law. Now, my aspirations are leading me to the path of medicine. Which of course means my first thee years of school were fun but fairly irrelevent now. But I know in my heart of hearts this is where I belong and the best way for me to give back to the world.

Looking forward, I am now searching for my first big girl house, meaning in the city of Philadelphia and not at school. I am also searching for a summer job, but really who isn't? And while summer is not my favorite season, I am very much looking forward to this summer being surrounded by my friends and embracing the life I have 100% made for myself.


P.S. For those inquiring minds, the aforementioned boy who broke my heart, well, he happens to be quite good with an apology, and I seem to find myself with him again and more in love than ever. :)

hey world! part 1

Here it is, the beginning of my return. I have had quite the busy past few weeks, but now I'm back in action. First, I must say that my chapter's MADD Dance A Thon was a great success!!! I'm so happy with the outcome, so yay us!
School is chugging along, and Friday begins my Spring Break!!!! Now, like most of you I will be headed south for my SB. But there will be no sand and surf in my future, oh no even better. THE POSSE IS COMING TO BALTIMORE!!! (For those inquiring minds, the Posse is my group of very close friends, no we did not name ourselves. It was one of those "having greatness thrust upon you" moments during our pledge period.) So watch out Charm City, we're coming for you!
I have lots of mre exciting news, of the more personal level, but I feel as though that deserves its own post. So now I have even more reason to be back again tomorrow!

post about a post

I promise on all things holy and Jake Gyllenhaal that I will post when I get home from work today...so don't fret little ones, there is much to be discussed.

New Traditions on the Rise

In an effort to make sure that I write more often, as it was one of my NY resolutions, I am enstating a new tradition; every Saturday will be List Day. So for this week's list I will go with the Top Ten Things on my Mind!

1. Weekends at home with my mom <3
2. Super Bowl in Paradise with my best friends
3. Getting everything ready for the Dance A Thon
4. My brand new riding boots that has seemed to disappear somewhere in Pennsylvania
5. Finding a home for next year
6. The end of winter blues :(
7. Working on my fitness
8. Super secret crushes :)
9. What am I going to do with the rest of my life?
10. Accepting that everything happens for a reason, and that I wil never be able to go back and change things

Sweet Charity

Who doesn't like being philanthropic? If your answer was no one you would be correctomundo! I'm coming to the final weeks and stages of preparation for the event for which I am chair for Phi Sig. Its our annual Dance A Thon to support Mothers Against Drunk Driving, and I'm excited and scared at the same time. Its such a large event, and its been so succesful in the past that there is a lot of pressure. But at the same time, I am excited to see the finished product of my many many months of work. I will keep everyone posted on how it all turns out in the end.
