Ick

Today has been an icky day so far....
First, I forgot to turn off my alarm last night.... so I was rudely awoken at 9am when I didn't have class til 12:30... so annoying....
Second, I forgot to look out the window this morning, so when I went outside this morning I was surprised to find rain and icy pavement and I was wearing Ballet flats which have now been soaked through.... ewww....
Third, I left my room too late to stop for a bagel and coffee and I have back to back classes today... So I will be starving.... I must rely on a vending machine to deal with my hunger....

Tonight should be good though, I'm grabbing dinner with two friends and then heading off to watch the Patriots take on Drexel University!

Mason Pride

So, I just back from a Homecoming party/finished playing some hard core Pokemon N64 with a hallmate and I just have to say I <3 my University... I am not the worlds biggest sports fan by any means but there is something very cool about sitting in the students section of any game... the cheering, the mocking, the singing, the standing for the whole freaking game. My feet hurt and my voice is hurt from screaming so much, but it was a blast! Tonight was homecoming and we won!!!! Go Mason!!! I had a blast except for the whole waking up at 9am on a Saturday... that kinda sucked especially since I don't really wake up that early during the week....
So I finally have pictures... Thanks to my friend (and roomie next semester) P.S. Shes the adorable little blonde... shes 4' 11" (we joke that we are gonna need some tall people in our on campus apartment so we can reach the top shelves since I am only 5'1")
This is us right before the game started so we look pretty and not super aggressive like we have been screaming for an hour...
The cutie pie on the left is our friend Ashley and on the right is yours truly...
Also, I just have to mention that the last minute of the game lasted for about 7 minutes cause the kept fouling each other... it was a bit tedious to see them just walking back and forth to each other's basket... lol...
Today (Sunday) I am heading back to Bawlmore to my Grandmom and Pop's house for homemade ravioli with my big sister and brother-in-law, yummers! Plus, I get to see my mommy, her fiance, and my soon to be nieces! And, kinda most importantly my puppies!! (I love the people but they can drive down whenever they want, the doggies... not so much...)
Hope everyone had a good Valentine's Day, whether single like me, with a boyfriend, happily married, or like my sister, happily married but with a husband who was convinced Valentine's day was this Friday (she didn't have the heart to tell him it was actually Saturday... lol)

TGIF... No More Like "Why God is it Friday?"

I don't like Fridays.... I may be the only person in the world who doesn't but my Friday schedule sucks... I have one class that is 45min at 12:30... I can never seem to convince myself to get up for it and yet I should. All the other days of the week I have more then one class which is a good way to get myself out of bed, but on Friday its just the one class which isn't much motivation. Plus, on Monday and Wednesday I have my Government class which I have to go to or I will fall behind and not do well and on Tuesday and Thursday I have my Ethics class which I have to go to for the same reason. But on Friday its just my boring old Public Speaking class... I know I have to go to it so I can take my tests with my group, but its just so boring. I already understand the need to be an ethical speaker and promise to not plagiarize or lie to my audience... eh... I guess I just have to deal...

On a more fun note... The College Humor show is premiering on MTV this weekend and I am super pumped! AND I am going to see 'Hes just not that into you' with my big sister too!

Hope everyone has a good weekend!!

So Cold... So Very Very Very Cold

So the winds are howling outside my dorm at the moment, there is ice on the ground, and if I have to stand outside with my friends while they smoke I may become an icicle. (I don't smoke, I just stand outside while they do.) It is so very cold at Mason. I really wish we could move the school to NC for like Jan, Feb, and the first half of March.
Being the incredibly intelligent person that I am I really only have two winter jackets; a sky blue North Face fleece that I didn't bring because its sky blue and matches nothing and a knee length Burberry-esque coat. I brought the plaid coat but it's a little impractical to wear day to day because its a little too dressy to toss with jeans and a t-shirt.
Enter this adorable jacket from Delias:
I love this coat! Its a short coat so it can go with jeans and a skirt. The hood is detachable, which just adds to the awesomeness! A girl in my Ethics class who I am friends with has this exact coat and she loves it so I'm pretty excited to get it! Plus $60 isn't to bad for a wool coat...

Also, I always thought I had a tone of clothes when I was at home... I don't.... I'm not sure if its because I don't have a lot of winter/cold weather clothes or what, but my closet is significantly less full then the others on the floor... I need to shop...

On a totally unrelated note, I am looking for cool plays to cut an Interp piece from for speech.... If anybody wrote a cool play, saw a cool play, or was in a cool play please let me know! I will name my first born after you if you can help me!

Well I have a 10:30 class tomorrow so I should probably sleep.... Damn Intro to Sociology...
