Halloween Costumes

I'm just going to say it... I love slutty Halloween costumes! Not for myself of course, but it is literally the highlight of my month seeing all of the pictures of girls in their nurse costumes they probably wore when they were four. I get on facebook every year and STALK everyones pictures. Don't hate, this is my one judgmental thing I do all year, I swear! I honestly sometimes can't believe the "costumes" people come up with... You people are SCANDALOUS! What happened to keeping the gonads covered!? However, I was throughly disappointed with the conservative costumes this year! I even told the girls (they are all friends) that usually go all out Julia Roberts Pretty Woman (Initial wardrobe) how disappointed I was with them! Everyone was pretty well covered and I was given no room to gawk or laugh! Curse you, cruel world!
I was quite tickled by this Halloween costume that my friend found... Actually I was more than tickled, I laughed for an entire class period...

Auburn University

HUZZAH! Since I've last posted SO much has happened! Firstly, I was accepted to Auburn early decision! It was so exciting seeing that online and then getting the letter, along with my scholarship! At Auburn they do rooming on a first come first come basis. You had to make a confirmation deposit, then you would receive another letter that contained your Auburn username and password and with that you had to get on THE SECOND you got it to send in your housing application so you can get the good dorms! The dorm me and my roommate want is called Owen and its on the Quad... however, its also the dorm that EVERYONE else wants. I was ON TOP of things with it. I made the confirmation deposit immediately after I got my acceptance letter... and then I waited... and waited... and waited... frantically checking the mail so I could be the first to get it in! They said it would take two days to come in... IT TOOK SIX. Oh the stress! I wasn't at school the day it came in so I had a little bit of an advantage over everyone else who was still at school. It was the most complicated and confusing application in the WORLD. Then I called my roommates mother and walked her through it. At Auburn they consider you for housing according to the whoever (you or your roommate) sent in your housing application the latest, so we both had to have it in ASAP! It doesn't sound that terrible... but I was SO stressed! Poor Pops and Noni arrived in the midst of me doing all of this and I was about as pleasant as a cat being given a bath. Sorry Pops and Noni! But its done! And I do believe that we are in pretty good shape in terms of getting the dorm we want! War Eagle!


Me and My roommate Anna!

College.. OMG.

Seriously, I don't think people understand what a terrible thing it is to be a senior... and already accepted to college. Can't I go now? This last year of high school is so terrible! Vestavia has sucked me dry and I am ready to get out of its shadow! Everyone keeps talking about how much they don't "ever want to leave" and I think they must all be mentally challenged, dropped on the head as children or brainwashed. SERIOUSLY? "Senioritis" has hit me hard. Actually my English teacher (who is crazy) informed us all that it would actually be "seniorosis" not "senioritis". Thank you Ms. Palmer. Regardless, I have it! It doesn't help that my senior class is the least involved of ANY senior class that has ever passed through Vestavia. I do not exaggerate. Normally, the senior classes have a huge amount of school spirit... my senior class has become know for the acronym "JDC". Just Don't Care. Everything we do is jdc. Our grades, our peprallys, our football! At peprallies our grade BOOS is anyone else wins. Its really hilarious. We are all supposed to be saying the cheer "Way to go [insert juniors, sophomores, freshmen], way to go!" and instead a roar of boos can be heard from the senior section while the rest of the school is chanting. Hopefully, we will care enough to graduate!

The Boy.


So my last post was dedicated to my boyfriend Daniel, who is so so great! What some of you might not know is that Daniel and I broke up for a few months right before school started. I got to the point where I wasn't having "fun" in the relationship so I decided after much thought that it was time to break up. That sounds so terrible... but I promise its not as mean as it sounds. I think especially in high school dating should just be to have a good time and enjoy yourself. You shouldn't be TRYING to stay together with your boyfriend/girlfriend. If it is getting stressful or just plain not fun you should just break up is my philosophy. I know too many of my friends that are trying to stay together foreverrrrr with their boyfriends.... don't plan the wedding yet! So I broke up with Daniel. And it broke my heart. Of course I had this whole long speech with all this flawless reasoning behind it but as soon as I saw his face and started... I broke down. Before I knew it I had broken up with him, I was crying and he was hugging ME and telling ME it was going to be okay! I thought I was supposed to be the one doing that! We stayed apart for a little over a month. As much as I tried to just move past it, I just couldn't leave it behind. Daniel and I were still talking everyday and he was being so so so sweet and trying his very best to be a good friend. I had my "ah-hah" moment when I got on facebook and saw pictures of Daniel celebrating his 18th boyfriend. I started crying again and then I realized that I did NOT want to be broken up. So we got back together! We are doing great and I am happy and enjoying being together with Daniel again!

For Noni and Melissa

I know, I'm terrible. I knew it was absolutely time to update when my grandmother Noni told me to update... only to be immediately told again to update by Melissa when Noni was on the phone with her! Since I have TONS to update on I decided to split this into a few different posts in order to make this more orderly... lets hope it works!
