Ready, Break!

Here we go!

It has been forever since I last shared my thoughts so I thought I'd cover a few things:

I finished finals and final papers relatively unscathed. Boosted my GPA a bit and now I'm finishing up my transfer applications. If you recall, the world was supposed to end on 12/21/12. Well my world almost did. I got out of my final late, missed my ride (that was prepaid/nonrefundable), had to take a cab for an additional $80. Then when I'd finally sat down waiting to board my flight home, it got CANCELLED. Long story short, the next flight out was not for several days so me and 8 other St. Louis-ians rented a car and drove 16 hours overnight. I made home without being murdered! YAY! Then Christmas break began!!

I had several family Christmases and then had a New Year's extravaganza week with my sister and my brother-in-law. We themed NYE and dressed like we lived in the '30s and took paparazzi pictures. I love when the 3 of us get to spend time together. We also coloured my hair tips purple! LOVING IT

Random but: I forget to mention that over Thanksgiving break my sister and I went to see Hurt at the Outland Ballroom and I met one of my future boyfriends who played drums in one of the opening bands. That concert put us both back in the tour mindset so hopefully we can work something stellar out this summer!

Anyway back to the present: My fave bio teacher from high school is convinced I'm knowledgeable enough to teach his seniors about Human Evolution. So I'm making a presentation for that on Friday. Hopefully after this I'll never have to type "hominin" again.

I'm going back to New York on Sunday. Only 4 more months until I'm an official Chicago resident (fingers crossed)!

Lastly, 2 things I've realized about myself:

I'm a lister. (Ironic b/c that's my mom's maiden name), but I mean I love listing things. So look forward to a few of those in the near future.
I'm addicted to every show about the Kardashians.
