Updates

I have updates that I have neglected to give you.

1. I will be a lucky member of the audience at Lady Gaga's concert later this month. I am ecstatic and cannot wait! I will be wearing full costume, wig, face paint, attire. Pictures will follow. I've attached a link so you can find a tour date near you. (Just click this post's title, Updates) I also changed this week's quote in honor of Gaga. This is from an interview she did with a Canadian reporter.

2. More concert news. For my birthday, I received tickets to see Owl City in February. I have been a huge fan since last April and am really looking forward to the concert. It is held at small venue, so it should be quite intimate and personal. It's further away then Gaga, but I have quite a bit to look forward to!

3. I just read "A Million Little Pieces" this past week. It was intense and beautifully frightening. I know there was quite a bit of scandal involving the facts in the novel, but the overall message and journey is still worth reading. I could not put it down, although at some parts it got tough to follow. It is written as a stream of consciousness, ignoring basic grammatical rules. It gives a glimpse into the twisted and dysfunctional life of an addict. I read it more as a fictional novel than an actual autobiography due to the fact that many of his accounts were fabricated and exaggerated. 



Procrastination at its Finest.

Thanks to finals, I really have perfected my ability to procrastinate. Don't get me wrong, my skills were quite well before this week, but since Monday, I have gone to an entire new level of not-studying. 

Thanks to an intense regiment of library hours-usually from noon till midnight-my ADD has taken a new and intense turn. Simple things seem to capture to my attention and draw me away from my purpose. The distractions are welcomed focuses other than notes and text books pages, study guides and flashcards. 

One second I am focusing on this...  



And then my vision has shifted to counting tiles on the wall! I honestly counted how many dots are on each square. What is that!

Youtube and Facebook have been my influencing accomplices. On the upside, it is Wednesday, and I only have three more. Three more till Holiday Freedom. Three more till Sleep and Television and Lounging. Oh how I cannot wait! I'm simply beaming with the anticipation.

Now that I have wasted a sufficient and respectable amount of time, it is time to refocus on my management notes. They won't read themselves you know...

A Heartfelt Letter to Finals

Dear Finals,

I hate you. You deprive me of quality time with all my loved ones such as Pillow, Television, and Lazyness. I really wish you would leave and never come back. You're ruining my life. Life ruiner. 

Sincerely.

Yes, that did happen.

Today, I meandered my way to the library in a daze at 9:30 in the morning as was my routine. I have a break in between classes and try to spend it productively, although it usually consists of facebooking and googling. 

In my barely conscious state, I stepped to the automatic sliding doors, not giving heed or paying an ounce of attention. BOOM. The automatic doors closed on me. I was startled and confused, the daze disappearing as the door pressed on my arm, trying to squish me between it. 

The girl behind me is laughing as I let out what can only be typed as a GAHHH. After I squeezed through successfully and unharmed, I giggled at myself too. How can an automatic door close on you?

Yes, that did happen.

Are you there blog?

Once again, I have neglected you. The start of another month is upon us. November seemed to fly by, and it was afterall my birthday month. School and work were the priorities and not to mention football. 

The Who Dats are out in full force, as my boys march on undefeated in the league. Who dat say they gonna beat dem Saints? Who dat! For my birthday, I was lucky enough to get a Brees jersey. I considered wearing it for an entire week without taking it off, but I figured it would start to smell and people would judge me. Needless to say, I nixed that idea. 

Thanksgiving consisted of gorging myself into oblivion and passing out from food exhaustion. I did love my outfit for the day of celebration though. It consisted of a high waisted black skirt with a white tucked in tank and a green sweater. I also sported black stockings with black heeled booties. I have to commend myself on my style fashion. I can look good when I want to, I just rarely want to. 

Hopefully December will bring more excitement, and more blog dedication on my part. 

Au revoir!
