Okay, okay. I know I’ve been a terrible blogger. But with school starting, and work, and life.. it just gets hard. I have an unexpected day off tomorrow, thanks to my one class being online for the week so I’m choosing to not go to my second class, because it’s pointless to go for two hours. I’ll have to drive all that way, and the last two weeks we’ve done nothing but install Corel Draw and Windows on our Macs. So we’ll be learning the basics of the program, and I already learned the program in highschool. I feel like I know 90% of what I’m learning in all of my classes, and it just makes it boring. But for the stuff I don’t know, and the actual credits for a diploma and a job.. I need to keep going to school.
But it’ll all be for the best in the end, I guess. And I am learning a FEW things that I didn’t already know. Along with some new ways of doing things, so I guess it’s not all bad. But either way, I am super excited for my trip to Nashville at the end of Feb. I really just need to get away, and I want to go there so badly. I just want to go somewhere and take pictures of everything and be away from here. It’s almost exactly like how I felt before going to Florida last year, and I know that trip helped me so much.
But I think I’m going to head to bed now, because I’ve been up since 6 and was at school all day. After having a nice shot of Banana Jack with my whole family, it’s bed time for me. Hope you’re all doing well!

I have successfully made it through my first week of semester 2. I get monday/friday off each week, so I only have three days a week. Tuesday from 12-6, Wednesday from 8-5:30 (such a long day, because I barely get any breaks) and Thursday from 1-5:30. We didn’t really do much in any of the classes this week, and I actually managed to fall asleep in one of my classes.
My photography class is on Wed. from 1-3. You’d think that, it being photography and all, I’d be super excited for it- and I was. But it’s not really what I expected. The first class, we just watched a video of the history of photography.. so it was a dark room, and I was tired/uncomfortable, and I just ended up falling asleep while sitting up. During the course, there are 4 Canon cameras to be split between around 43 of us in the class, so we’ll get virtually no time with it. We aren’t allowed to bring our own cameras in, because that makes it ‘unfair’ if we have a different/better camera and/or lens. It’s going to be a mess, but I guess it’s all we have to work with.
For the most part, I’m pretty much a loner in my class- I switched from the Creative to the Digital program, so anyone I talked to (though I didn’t talk to many people often, and I tried to avoid the one who always talked to me the best I could) but I did make one friend. Kind of. Ish a friend. But you know, it gives me someone to (sometimes) talk to in class so it’s good, right?
But now I’m off to work from 11-8, this is probably how I’ll spend every monday/friday I have off. Though I do have the rest of the weekend off after this, so I’m excited!

Hello 2012

I can not believe that it’s already 2012. Happy New Year to you all, and I hope you had a good night- even if it was just relaxing. I stayed over at a friends house with all my best friends, and we had a pot luck dinner and just overall had a great night. And took over 500 pictures, haha. But that’s generally what we always do. It’s really weird to think about the fact that it’s 2012- where the hell is the time going? I can’t believe it’s already January, because it feels like just last month was the beginning of 2011.
2011 was quite a year for me. I had a great trip to Florida, had a new boy in my life for quite a few months (we never did date, but.. it was a ‘thing’), dealt more with David the Douche and ultimately did get over him, even if it took until December. I became obsessed with dresses and country music, and overall I think I’ve changed as a person. I started (and completed) my first semester of college with exceptional grades (minus one class, but I have switched courses so the same thing wont happen next semester) and turned 19. This will be my last year as a teen, so I’ll make the next 11 months until my birthday count. I also saved enough to get a Macbook Pro, and my own truck. There are still a lot of things I want to work on in 2012 and a lot of things I want to learn, but I am looking forward to it all.
And like last year, here’s a recap of my top songs, artists and albums of 2011 (according to LastFM) because I know that they are vastly different than last year, with the exception of Taylor Swift still being the top in 2 of the 3 categories. Some things just never change

I am finally finished my first semester of college. At the beginning, I loved it. I was glad to be doing something other than working because the drama there had gotten so bad, there was a cute boy I was semi-obsessed with in all of my classes and I was just excited to learn. By the end, work drama stopped, I realized that I was barely learning anything because I already knew it all (I learned some different ways to do things, and how to open windows in slow motion on a mac. That’s about it), the cute boy I was semi-obsessed with became obsessed with me in an annoying way that made me dread seeing/talking to him, and my one teacher was a complete douche.
But that is finally over, and next semester I have switched from Creative to Digital so I won’t have the douche teacher, nor any drawing classes which SERIOUSLY brought me down this semester. I also got an elective class of Spanish, which I’ve ALWAYS wanted to learn so I’m excited, and creepy annoying guy is still in creative so he will be in zero of my classes. So I can hopefully meet some new friends, find a hot boy and marry him. LOL, not entirely.. but you know. AND, I only have a three day week next semester- plus a four day weekend. I only went 3 days this semester as well, but I had Wed/Thurs off, so it was like another weekend in the middle- now I have Mon/Fri off, so it’s like a long weekend every week. Score. Even though I’ll probably end up working, except they have enough people now so I’m not sure if they’ll need me during the week. But it’d be nice to have some time off, which I’m looking forward to over the next three weeks before I go back to school.
In that time, I’m hopefully going to get a new layout up! I have one that it’s the process of being coded, I just need to get it looking exactly how I want it. It’s been forever since I’ve been coding wordpress layouts, so everything looked fine until I brought it in to preview it. I’ve been working on it though, and hopefully it will be up soon! For now though, I need to go dry and curl my hair because I’m going out to the bar tonight to celebrate my sister’s friend’s birthday
