I'm late...I'm late for a very important date

I know I haven't been writing lately, and when I am it's more like a thought, not really a process of thinking or a cluster of thoughts. I think that I've been so busy, so mentally busy with everything I feel needs to be done within the next 4 weeks that I feel I don't have room to think of anything else, much less retain any thoughts, remembering dates and important events. Interesting enough, almost everyone knows me for my horrible memory and carelessness (putting my keys down and losing them almost instantly, leaving my things at friends/family's houses, etc etc). It's a little joke with my boyfriend that I might end up with Alzheimer by the time I'm 30. Not too funny if you really think about it...good thing about it is, I'm not too worried about it. See I know that I have a much better memory, a much more sound mind when I"m not in school. Why you ask? Because I'm not multi-tasking to the max, I'm not cramming and completely exhausting my short-term memory, and most of all, the key to a great memory...I get great sleep when I'm not in classes. One of my good friends told me to write everything down...which sounded like a great idea until I continually forgot to write most things down. 4 weeks of classes. Almost there and almost back to my good ole sane self...well as sane as I get :)

There is still plenty I must do within these 4 weeks such as

Accounting, Math and Women of Politics to study for
Release Fred and Ted into the wild before they kill each other
Finishing my senior project, which I have to present half of it on Saturday and i'm totally not ready
Job Search
Find someone to sublease my apt if needed
Figure out what i'm doing with this whole WSHS Reunion.
Bills....
Work....

fun fun fun :)

I've Been Waiting My Whole Life

The particular moment of Graduating from College isn't exactly the moment I've been waiting my whole life for, but it's the first day of the moments I've been waiting for. Ever since I was little I used to daydream, yes about my wedding day, but mostly just about living. About making big decisions, life changing decisions, making mistakes, and learning from them. Getting a new job, starting my own business, getting married, opening my shop, having kids, moving, seeing the world....I have always dreamed in adult form for as long as I can remember, and with graduation being only 12 weeks away, I can't decide if I'm terrified, or so ecstatic I can hardly take it. I know, I know. Everyone keeps telling me to take my time and enjoy my time in school while I have it because then comes the real world. You know what? Bring it on real world. There is so much I want to conquer, so much I want to tackle that I don't think I'll be missing much from the college world except for naps and the relationships I made. Working, bills, debt, huge mistakes, credit card debt, and starving due to lack of food and money...been there done that. When i'm working full-time, what could possibly be worse then that? I have goals, aspirations, and ambitions that I can't start working on until this 12 weeks is over. BUT, I'm going to try my hardest to enjoy it while I can. Soak up the sun and crank it out because I know that the summer of 2010 is going to be one of the best summers of my life. I can only thank God for me getting closer to him in this past years, and for him opening my eyes to the achievements I can make through him. I mean can you blame me for wanting to get started so badly?
