Not Your Average Jane

I found the perfect t shirt for me.... well almost perfect.... its 2 sizes too big but other than that perfect.... Its pink, it only cost 6 $'s and it says, "THERE'S NO SHAME IN MY GAME"..... hehehe.... perfection. I got it to go with a cute pair of PJ pants I found at Target... I didn't like the shirt I found in the women's section they said was supposed to match so I meandered over in the men's section and got lucky with the sales rack... That sounds so wrong.... ah well... But yeah its like the perfect outfit for me, comfy and to the point.... :)
In other news... For the handful of people that aren't aware by now... I am in fact returning to U of O for the fall semester... I leave on like the 21st of August.... Registration is the 22nd and classes start the 23rd... though my first class won't be till the 24th... As I'm only registered for 9 hours of all Monday Wednesday Friday classes.... I'm also back in Maclean... This time the basement... whoo hoo.... I talked with a friend of mine earlier and I think I won't mess with my schedule the way I thought about doing... So I'll take British Lit (MWF at 1 with Strain), instead of Civil War and Reconstruction (TR at 8 AM with Steve Oatis)... I figure thats a better choice in general... 8 am ain't happening for me and with Steve Oatis one of the few people who bore me to tears, regardless of the material. I'd love to take a class on the Civil War it intrigues me but not with him and not at 8 am... Sorry, Charlie... I guess I'll just watch the Civil War series of DVDs and the History Channel... No biggie... I'm like addicted to the History channel in the last couple of weeks.... Stuff about the old west, military history, disasters, modern marvels, world war 2 (lots on that.... ),opium and the Chinese in America, and even one about side show freaks..... Its really interesting and I don't feel so much like my mind is turning to mush anymore.... I'm not used to so much mental inactivity.....
other stuff.... I decided to try netflix... only 10 $'s a month for unlimited rentals, no late fees.... sounds promising but we'll see.... It should be very helpful for the 3 monthes I'm in Arkansas if I do keep doing it.... This month is free so that rocks....
I'm also trying to plan all the shows and things I need to do before I leave and even having almost a month left it doesn't feel like there's enough time for everything I want to do.... ugh....
Another thing about goin back to school... Mom and I sat down and had a serious chat about money.... She told me if I got all A's (a B is acceptable but not encouraged) in all 3 classes she would pay for an apartment for me for 3 monthes while I jobhunt.... Anywhere I want and she'll get me started furniture wise.... How awesome is that?
On the other said of the coin she did say if for some reason I didn't pass with flying colors and graduate she was cutting me off and I couldn't move home, I'd have to stay in Arkansas (logic fails here, we won't know my grades till almost New Years and I'll have been home a week or so... Since they send the grades in the mail and not on the computer like every other normal university in the 21st century does....). Very black and white.... No pressure at all. Not that I don't plan to pass with flying colors incentives or not.... Its just now I can feel the pressure more and earlier....
more fun stuff... helped mom in her classroom today for a couple of hours... ran into Jenny i blank on her maiden name but she married daryl and changed to his last name of seltzer and I went to high school with both of them, and chatted for a few... She and Daryl have been living with his parents for the last 4 monthes and this weekend are moving into their first place together... aw... also it turns out another MHS alum is goin to be the art teacher at Bunker Hill... Wow that brings the total to 3 so far... Can they not stay away? :)
thats about it for now... no guy news.... no jobhunting news (not jobhunting since I'm goin back to school in less than a month).... haven't heard from Julie or Nat about doing lunch.... I'll call Nat in a day or 2 and see if she still wants to.... now I'm just blabbing.... laters.
