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!!!
