Junior Year...oh how I wish you would end!

It is officially my Junior year in college. Which is so cool! I am finally closer to the end of this adventure than the beginning. As long as everything keeps going well and I pass all my classes. I will be graduating in May 2013. I will be graduating on time and going out into the "real world". When people hear me being excited about being out in the real world, they giggle then reflect on their life and always say "your going to miss being in college". I don't think I will miss it! You want to hear about my current schedule for this spring semester? Well even if you don't I am going to tell you because I am the one writing this :)

On Monday and Wednesday mornings I wake up between 6:30 and 7:00. Depending on how I feel I will work out until it is time for work. I spend 8:00am - 9:45am and 11:00am - 12:45pm slaving the day away at my job at the school (kidding I don't do much at my job. I am here at the office right now writing up this post). from 9:45 am - 11:00 am and 12:45 pm - 5:00 pm (which it hasn't been that late yet) playing with my nephew. We do all kinds of crazy things, good thing he can't talk! hehe He is a crazy one, he normally spends the first 1 hr sleeping, then eating, and then sleeps again. I spend this time watching him, then feeding him, then watching a netflix show, then maybe another, and then run to my room and pull out a school book to pretend like I have been working on school all afternoon. (sometime I will actually get some of my homework done for the week) After Nik gets home we sit there and talk about how her class went. Then I go to my room and actually work on my homework, then enjoy a delicious dinner. Sometime help with cooking or cleaning. Then I take a shower finish up any last min homework problems. My bed time is at 9 pm. I know I am crazy for staying up that late! But you know what I like being crazy and such every now and again!

Tuesday and Thursdays - I wake up at 7 am and get all ready for the gym. Spend a good amount of time there, I walk to my car and eat breakfast. At 9:25am, I enjoy a nice class on Tax, at 10:50 I sit down and enjoy a class on finance. I get a 55 min break for lunch, where you will find me back in my car enjoying a sandwich, or eating out with the grandparents :) After that at 1pm I head off and enjoy a nice hour and 15 min lecture on intermediate accounting 2. Once all my classes are over I spend from 2:30-5:00 back at the office (where I am right now). Next I will go home, do some homework, eat dinner, shower and again in bed at 9pm.

Fridays - oh how you are so close to the busy weekends I have :) Friday starts off just like Monday and Wednesday, but I only get to spend 2 hours with my nephew instead of all afternoon. So at 2:00 I am back at work till 5. I signed up for a new class today. I am not going to tell you what it is just now but if I enjoy it I will be busy from 2 - 4 on Fridays from now till first Friday in march. More to come on that later. After that the day goes on like all others. Home, homework, eating, shower and then to bed.

Starting Feb 4th, I am going to be starting a new job. This job is in a city that is 30 miles away from here. But it is a weekend job and it pays really well. So most of my weekends will be taken up by the job but in the end it will all be worth it :)

Well that is all for now. I might post sometime soon but in all reality I most likely won't post for a few months. Just check back every now and again.

I decided to cut my hair. And I love it! Hopefully I will be able to post some pictures some time soon!In other news - I switched my room all around. It look so much bigger. Classes are now half way over. On Monday the schedule for the Spring semester comes out. I have been packing a lunch most days for class and work. Its working out really well and I am saving money! Which is always nice! I am in the process of making a recipe book. It looks really good! Didn't get out of my PJS today till after 2 pm. I know crazy but I was busy with homework and changing my room all up!

Well that is all for today :)

Love Shelbi

Its time to decide...

I am in desperate need of a hair cut! I mean like split ends everywhere! And I need help deciding what to do... My hair is getting longer and I am loving it! But its hard to find new ways to style it! So I was looking at pictures on my laptop and ran across a few from when I had shorter hair and i miss it!

Here are my two options...

1) Keep the length but go a little shorter and follow this?

2) Or get a the dead ends cut off and keep growing it out, like this?

Friday - Saturday - Sunday - Monday

Those are my big weekend plans....What are you doing?

Its Thursday....

Oh what a week!

I got almost everything finished this week that was on my to do list and one thing that was not. More on that in a few weeks :)

Monday - Worked from 9 to 4. Study for test all night!

Tuesday - Class from 8-4. I had a test in my first class that day. I also started working out at the gym that day. I walked/jogged/ran a mile (which isn't a lot I know. But my leg went numb and so I decided to stop). Then a night home to work on homework and studying for a test I had Thursday.

Wednesday - Worked from 9 to 4. Then write my formula sheet for Stats and read over review questions for Marketing.

Thursday (today) - Wake up. Fix hair and get dressed. Pack bags (I have been taking 2 bags to classes - switch out between lunch so much better on my back). Drive to class. Get test results back from Tuesdays test. Did really well. Go to stats and take test. Realize that I forgot one thing on my formula page. Freak out. Think really hard and just try (looked it up once back home and I got it right). Work out. 2 miles bike and .5 miles walking/jogging/running (then leg starts hurting again so I stop). Go to DQ they were playing some A & M game. Head over to marketing class go over review. Then up to computer class get a long lecture on using databases. Then home. I worked on my cook book for a while. Then I ate dinner. I was working on Econ homework and have been for the past few days. But the book I have and the outline he gave are different so I don't know if I will be able to finish all the homework without the other book. I even asked him before buying this book if it was okay to use! Ugh!

So that was my week. Tomorrow is working for 9 to 4. And most likely coming back and working on more homework.

Oh how I wish college didn't have so many homework assignments and test! But oh well as Gram says "For the money you are paying to go I hope they give you more homework then you have now!"

Being a big girl isn't fun! Just saying!

Thanks Nik

This, that, and the other.

Today is Thursday.... Which means its almost the weekend time!

I have had a long week...

Last weekend was a busy one....

It all started Friday (someone sound dream sequence music)


"Oh what a wonderful day" That is what I was thinking when I was a woken by birds chirping and music playing. (or at least it was something like that)

I was dressed and out the door by 8 am. Which you have to do if you want to find a good parking spot (Which I did! 4th row! It sounds like a long ways because it is but its better then over by the rec center [which is were I was at some point]).

The day went by pretty fast. Did nothing at work. At lunch time I was sitting outside in my normal spot under the treas. It was a lovely day!

That night I went home and cooked dinner. Taco Ring, Black Beans, and Spanish Rice. With brownies and ice cream for dessert.

The boyfriend came over and we watch a movie (The Last Three Days - It was an okay movie but I have definitely seen better).

Saturday morning I was up at 9 am and was working on my home work. Got about 1/3 of it finished. Then we went to the park to walk the trails. That is where I received a text from G-dad telling me that they were leaving for the restaurant. So that is where we went.

Had a wonderful lunch (again thanks Ma - it was yummy!). Then it was back home to finish some homework. But I only got 1/3 of the 2/3 done.

We left for G-bery. Went down town to do some shopping while there it started to rain. So it was decided that going to the drive in might not be smart. Because I didn't know how much more it was suppose to rain and the site didn't have anything about what they do when it rains, and the number I tried calling them at only told me what movies were playing). We had a lovely (by that i mean tasteless - they need to add some flavoring to their food if you ask us) dinner at the "groggy dawg". It was really cool cause we were outside so the wind blowing felt really good!
After dinner we did some more shopping then we went to the normal movie. Straw dogs was out choice (sticking with the dog theme of the night :)

When buying the tickets they asked to see only one of our IDs. Well I wasn't paying so I left my wallet in the car. So Junior showed his ID. Then the lady turned to me and asked me to go get my ID to show her mine also. Which was stupid! I have only been ID like 5 times for R rated movies. And that is only when I am buying the tickets or renting the movies! But what ever I walked out there to get it and was not happy walking back and I think she knew it. I didn't understand why mine was needed. I mean Junior is 20 that is 3 years over the 17 R rated movie limit. I mean if he just turned 17 I can understand. But whatever!

Now its Sunday and I had to finish my homework. So I spend the morning finishing 1/3 of the original 1/3 (so that leaves me with 1/3 or the 2/3 that I didn't finish Sat). At 10 something we left for the big cities.

Started off by heading to the Apple store to get my iPod an upgrade. But apparently you need an appointment to do this! Stupid! I could just turn it in the the Apple guy and get 10% off a new one. But I told him no that I wanted the $60.00 one! That was more in my budget. He said I would have to make an appointment and they only had one at 1:50 that day! I just walked out on him and wasn't happy!

Then it was to lunch at Smash Burgers. Has anyone been there? Here are my thoughts on it..... It is a lot of money! I mean 2 burgers, 1 order of fries, 1 order of fried pickles, and 2 drinks it was almost 25 dollars! And it wasn't that good! I mean we could have gone to Whataburger and gotten the same thing for about half the price. And there were too many people there! But I ate it and said thank you :)

Next it was time to head to JoAnns, the mall, and Target! Some of my favorite places! I love shopping! Junior would take me shopping almost every weekend when I lived there. Now it is every other weekend (which I know isn't that bad - but for me it is really hard!). We got a few things and I tried on homecoming dresses! Yes I know lame! I mean I am 20 and trying on homecoming dresses? But you know at least I am not buying one :)

It was time for the softball game. Our team lost but that is okay because I finished my homework!

After the game we headed to Genghis Grill! I am in love with this place! I signed up for the texted coupons the first time we went and I received my first coupon yesterday and it is kinda hard not skipping work tomorrow and heading up there :)



Then it was the hardest day of the week Monday (start doom noises please)....Woke up at 7 sooo tired and wanting to just go back to bed! But the day needed to get started. Packed my lunch, was dressed, and started packing my bag for the day. I couldn't find my wallet anywhere! Like it was no where in my room! I called Junior and he looked and I had forgotten to get it out of his bag. So I had to go a whole day without spending money. Which isn't hard when I at least had money to not buy things with. But it seems like when there is no way to spend money is when you think you need something the most!

After getting to work the day went on and on and on. One lady walked by my desk and told me I needed to wake up. I laughed and said I am trying too! Then my boss came over and hit me on the head with a stack of papers just for fun! It wasn't fun for me! But finally it was lunch time! And so I cooked up my lunch and headed out to my normal spot! Just finished making my homework all pretty and such and was going to sign my name but I received a text so I put down the pencil and read my text. Then it happened! I don't even know if I should share this! But I will! Oh MY! I was one very unhappy little college student! A bird had pooped on my homework!!!!!! Right were I was about to sign my name!!!!!!! I was sooooooooooo not happy!

Then day was just sad after that......



Last Thursday I went over to DQ to get myself a drink and went to find a place to work on some homework. And guess what was on TV? Criminal Minds! I love that show!!!! And you know what the same channel was on Tuesday too! (but not today some sports channel was)

So the point of that last part is to say. If anyone wants to send me gift cards to DQ so I can relax and watch Criminal Minds between classes I would love that!
