Uppers and Downers: The Best of Both Worlds

Well, after some debate in my mind, and some debate with others, I have decided that I will finally decide if I want to remain in my position or not. (To remain 'mysterious' will will say.. CEO as my position :P) Surprisingly enough, my mother is on board with spending more money by quitting my CEO position. As a CEO, there are several benefits which I would obviously have to pay for if I quit the position. So, by taking money out of the equation and the Pro/Con list, there aren't a lot of Pro's left. Sure, there are my "employees" to think of, and my "partner," but first and fore-most myself. Since I do not really feel greatly invested in the company, I feel that I would be ok in making my decision to leave. I just mainly feel it is time for me to spread my wings just a little bit more. By taking the position, I kind of cut my wings in a way - moving from a more developed company, to a younger crowd. Its time to venture out on my own. And, if that's not enough cliche's for you.. I'm affraid you are going to have to find another blog to enjoy- because "frankly Scarlet, I don't give a damn." :)
On a lighter note, It is almost Thanksgiving!!! This means a trip to the BF!! I'm so excited, I haven't seen him for... a long time! - Like, MONTHS long!! And then, after three days with him, its back to home I go. :( But.. then later I will be able to see him!! and then maybe one day we can be in the same city again... wow.. wouldn't that be nice?...
Ok, that'll be enough for tonight... it is, after all, too damn late for me to be awake - or at least awake and not doing paperwork :(
Have Fun!!!

Hell or Homework?


Apparently, I chose Hell...

So, as many of you know, I went to a conference this past weekend. In the beginning of planning for this conference (for it shall be known as HELL from hence forth) I was quite excited about going and getting a chance to hang out with friends on a super long busride like I did not to long ago when I went to Purgatory. But, such is not the case... Instead of Heaven, or even Purgatory, I went to HELL.

Now, don't get me wrong, the place or the setting I was in was not actually that bad... It was mainly just the whole overall situation. Instead of having fun and going to rock-awesome programs and presentations, what did I do?! I'll tell you what I did... I sat in a classroom... and listened. The morning was alright, I was by myself, representing my school. But, then we ate lunch - and the devil came dancing through the double doors. He then grabbed my arm and drug me to yet another classroom. This time, I was not in HELL alone, though. I was with Hitler and Superman (superman? you may be asking, but then you obviously don't watch the same cartoons I do. - while superman may be awesome, he tends to only be awesome when you arent louis lane and dealing with him all the time.) This time, I sat in the firey waiting room for...four more hours, sat and played with food for three hours, and then...and then...RETURNED TO HELL for FOUR MORE HOURS... yes.. I was in actual HELL for... TWELVE LONG FIREY HOURS... in one day. I don't even want to talk about it.

The ONLY good thing that came from being in Hell for TWELVE hours... was this...

It's called a "tangle," it is amazing, I know you wish you had one.. but you don't, unless you go to HELL for the weekend - it will be your only parting gift from the D-man.
Why is this the best thing ever? because it is blue, fun to play with, and... you almost CAN'T break it... A-M-A-Z-I-N-G.
So, you are probably asking yourselves, Seriously... how is this worthy of being HELL (especially in all caps..)?
Well... I will continue. So the busride alone was over 9 hours (One way), and may I say - cramped! Next, the food situation was NOT happening - omg.. I still can't even write about how bad it was... I'll have nightmares... s'riously.
Anyway. So, after a whole weekend, I had no homework done - a headache that would kill a horse, (a horse? i don't even know what that means.) and a stomach ache that... (?)really hurt(?).
Anyway, I am back a school (aka. not HELL - rather, Hell). Just chillin', killin'. (jk, I would NEVER want to go back to HELL again! And I wouldn't suggest it to you either, I'm not that cruel.
Have Fun!!!

First Come, First Serve

Hey ya'll...

So this is a new blog, for a new year, for new experiences! There is so much that has happened in the past few days, weeks, months that I don't even know where to begin. For starters, I'm still taking classes in hopes to one day teach the minds of tomorrow... ek... no pressure. Still have about two more years until I have to deal with that every day - so yay... more studying. I started classes this last Tues. They should be interesting. Thankfully there are people in most of them that I get along with, so we can make fun of the class together! Yay.. Is it bad that I'm already ready for a break? I've been seemingly stuck in Vtown for the last couple of weeks... I'm so ready for a weekend at home, laying around, watching movies. Which reminds me... I need to find a good book to start destracting myself with. That way I can have something that actually takes up useful time instead of studying, because really, who wants to do that? Not I!
I got to talk to the bf last night. I use the word 'talk' loosely, we actually only got to talk online, but at least it was in real time unlike the emails we have been sending back and forth every so often. He is having the 'time of his life' over in Tland... so good for him. Lots of people have been asking how he is, which leads me to believe that they know we are back together..again lol.
Speaking of people that I need to talk with, the bros... havent heard from them lately, I'm sure they are doing spectacular though... They normally are.
Saw the soon-to-be sis-in-law the other day, that was good.. it was nice to get to see a familiar face again. We went and paid tribute to the great Mrs. T. with Mexican food. It was quite delicious... I could really go for a taco now... hm.. I think TJ's is open... maybe for supper?
Housing, or rather, Federal policy has been a pain in my arse lately. They have been telling me who I can and cannot work for... b*st*rds... But I'll deal, I always do.
Oh, big news... or rather... decent sized news. I'll be going to a concert in the near future with a new friend from OHall. Should be pretty interesting in my opinion. Nah, but seriously, it should be pretty good. I've heard several of their songs, and I have one of their cd's on my computer, and it should be fun. If nothing else, I'll be going to a concert! We were going to see them in MN, but we chose to go on a Sat instead because of classes..Funny how school is already affecting my life :( .
Anyway. I suppose it's about that supper time I spoke of. Have a good night. And, until we type/read again...
Have Fun!!
