Is it thursday night yet?

Thursday's are my favorite. Despite the long class day, after those, I'm pretty much done for the day. I have concrete and senior design on friday, but I always have hw done for concrete early and senior design stuff is usually due in Foundations class on tuesdays or thursdays. Soo...THURSDAY NIGHT MUG NIGHT AT WILLY D'S. It's a great tradition my friend Kate and I have started this semester. We will go every thursday. (and don't worry dad, I get all my work done and go to class the next morning!) Mug night, for those who don't know, is if you bring in a mug (most use a willy d mug) to the piano bar you can fill it for one dollar. ONE DOLLAR...and the mug holds about 2 1/2 beers. YUM. haha

Needless to say...I'm ready for this mug night...although Kate can't come tomorrow, it's bikes blues and barbeque and she interns for them and has to run stuff all week! boooo

School's been alright, it's hard. I've yet to have a test...which worries me. Most of my classes have 2 tests and a final. scarrryyyy. So far I've done good on homework and stuff...I think, we still haven't gotten stuff back for some classes. Steel blowwwws I hate that class. I will never design a steel member. NEVER. I'll stick to pavements and such thank you very much.

This weekend is bikes, blues, and barbeque, always a fun time in fayetteville when that's going on. My friend Kate hooked me up with a job on saturday, I'm getting paid 8 dollars an hour to serve bbq! woohoo! and I get free bbq, tshirt, and beer.

Next weekend is the A&M game! I'm going with Kate to Dallas for it! It's going to be sooo much fun! A couple of our friends are staying in the same hotel and it has some good bars in walking distance. It will be a fun weekend, GO HOGS!!!

I got the cutest shirt for the game last weekend, it's a red vneck and along the side going down it says "CALL THEM & THEY WILL COME woo pig sooie" It's sooo cute!

Oh hey, I've lost 14% body fat. No big deal. And 15 pounds, no big deal again. YEA RIGHT! It would be more, but I was never THAT strict. Beer is my favorite beverage of the weekend....

My tv busted so now I have this old one of my brothers, the thing is huge! it barely fits on my desk, I'll probably move it to the top of my wardrobe here soon. I'm still working on my room, once it looks good I'll take pictures and post them.

vrrrmmm vrrrooommm vrrrooom that's all i'm hearing! I love it! I love bbbbq! I'm loving "senior" year! I still don't want to grow up though.

I was in the process of writing a really happy chirpy post about how great this semester was going to be, but I'd endup just be negative. So don't expect a back to school update post for awhile. It's gonna take something pretty fricking awesome to deserve a post.

Like and A on my first steel test. hah

Beginning of the End

Well, my summer's officially over tonight. Move in and work week starts tomorrow, then rush, then school. Granted I still have one more summer and one more semester, it is my last year in the AOII house and the year I should be graduating.

My car's all packed, there's a few things of mine left in the apartment for the parentals to get tomorrow. It's kinda sad, reminds me of last summer...when I was the last one left.

I have no TV right now so I'm going to go see a movie by myself tonight! A saturday night by MYSELF. I've done it before, but like on a wednesday. I'm seeing Julie and Julia.

This summer went by wayyy to fast. 3 months FLEW by. Hell, the last 3 years flew by.

Well I don't know what else to say, really. I'm off work for 2 weeks, which will be nice. I'll actually be sleeping in!

I'll probably update again when school starts back up and I have something to actually talk about.

It's Official...I'm old.

Yup, pretty much. It's friday night and I could not be more excited about going to bed. Tomorrow, when I wake up at 9AM....it'll be SLEEPING IN! by 3 hours...

I started a new schedule at work and it's pretty much going to leave me exhausted...

Everyday from 1030 to 1230 I'm in the stupidest class ever. Kinesiology is the biggest joke major ever.

Monday: 7-630
Tuesday: 7-530 (training at 545 at hper)
Wednesday: 7-630
Thursday: 7-545 (tennis at 6 at FAC)
Friday: 7-1030 (training at 3 at hper)

techincally i have 15 minutes to makeup in there, but that's not hard to do thoughout the week.

this was all so I wouldn't have to come back to work after class...which will be very nice.

I've just put in Gran Torino....be proud dad.

I'm super busy and I like it. Less time to think and less time to be around SOMEONES endless drama. I have my own trashcan now, and she has two bags that are ALL HER trash sitting on the balcony, and a sink full of dishes...which I normally would've cleaned by now, but not anymore.

OK....I'm done. Movie and bed. Greatttt night. Seriously.

HP6 IN ONE WEEEEEEEK!

It's been over a month, time for an update!

OK, it's been over a month....

summer has been pretty great so far. It hadn't gotten really hotttt until this weekend! which is ok cause i've pretty much spent the whole weekend watching the usopen.

what's the obsession with tiger still, like he barely made the cut! "tiger is 10 strokes off the lead, could be a big comeback" no need to mention who's in the lead though....UGH. i hate tiger woods. phil is amazing though.

roommate is good, besides the fact she has legit NEVER taken the trash out, BUT ONCE, when I told her to. Also, I've realized I don't deal well when some is literally doing nothing all summer but working about 18 hours a week.

I just remembered...I start summer school in about 2 weeks. BOOOO. cause then it's summer school for 5 weeks and then work week and then rush and then START OF SENIOR YEAR. this isn't happening. I JUST graduated highschool.

So I went out on dickson friday night for the first time in a longgg time and decided to venture away from my typical beer, and it cost me fricken 6.50! malibu and pinapple juice! i went straight back to beer...HALF the price. It was also and old highschool friends 21st birthday and I saw her at shotz and bought her a shot and it was really great to see her and catch up for a bit! (it was rachael wahlgreen, by the way, dad).

Work has been GREAT this summer, I don't work for anyone in fayetteville so NO ONE bothers me all day. I actually over slept last monday (exhausted from my texas excursion) by TWO HOURS, but managed only an hour late for work, but...no one knew i was gone! Is that a good or bad thing? haha Also, when I was in lr a few weeks ago I think my boss pretty much offered me a full time job. It's in lr though...which is..eh. I don't know, maybe it won't be so bad since I'll have my own place. NO OFFENSE MOM AND DAD! I think I'm working during the fall semester too, the way my schedule falls I'll need something to keep me busy for a couple days a week.

Also, I've hired my friend Monique as a personal trainer at the HPER and in two weeks I've lost 11 pounds! WOOHOO! She just about kills me every week...its tough. I didn't work out at all this weekend...that's no bueno, maybe i'll do some lunges later. ha.

and i'm signing up for tennis lesssons! if they ever call me back...yay for keeping busy and active! This is the first weekend I've done absolutely nothing and I have not really enjoyed it.

I bought Jiffy Pop at Walmart yesterday. And yes, I did know what it was before I bought it. It'll be fun to make. haha does it actually taste good? CUE YOU OLD PEOPLE. hahaha just kidding!

Last weekend there was a little family reunion in TX for a baby shower for one of my cousins. I had a A LOT of fun and it was great to meet many family members I'd never met or only met when I was a litte baby and to see one's I hadn't seen in YEARS. I really enjoyed myself and hope that we can all do it again in a few years.

I also got to spend a night with a sorority sister who transfered to UNT and it was really great catching up and going out with her and a few of her friends.

ok, maybe i'll update again before summer's over!

when i turned 21 i said 2009 was going to be a great year...and you know what? IT IS! so far...!

I had one of THE FUNNEST semesters of MY LIFE!

I learned to like baseball! (shocker!)

I turned 21!

and now Kris Allen won american idol! It feels like just yesterday we were sitting at the dinner at the house talking about the rumors we heard that katy's husband was in the top 24, soon did we find out from katy there was no top 24 but top 36 and to keep watching! Each tuesday (and sometimes wednesday) we'd dedicate those 2 hours to voting for kris...WHAT WILL I DO ON TUESDAY NIGHTS?! can't believe he made it all the way. wow...their lives will NEVER be the same!

I see an AOII philanthropy event in the future! ;-)

ice break was also a major plus!

i saw lots of movies...A LOT!

what else does 2009 have in store for me?????

how much better can 2009 get??? Still got over half a year!
