Weekend Happenings

So my roommates and I make a list every semester of fun things we want to do and these things are some of our favorite things we LOVE to do in Soonerland. It can be simple as going to get a snow cone to going to see a movie at the Warren. It usually ends up being one roomie that I tackle this with and wouldn't have it any other way. With the semester ending in like oh 4 day we had lots to tackle, so we did just that.

This weekend I had a LOT of homework to get done, but I did not let that keep me from having some fun. This weekend I had to get a final completed by Sunday that had to be 3 to 4 pages long and mine ended up being 5..vomit. I also had to get a PowerPoint presentation done by Sunday as well. On top of doing discussion posts. But lets talk about the fun I had.

On Friday I got wild and crazy and ordered pizza and rented movies and hung out!

Saturday I woke up did some homework then got ready for the day. My trusty side kick wanted to take a stroll around campus corner to hit all the fun shops and go to one other store that ended up being a major let down. Anyways we stopped at one of my favorite places known as Shoetopia and lets just say if i had an extra $1,000 lying around I could do some major damage there. We found few cute stores that had some really CUTE jewelry, but this college girl needed some more dough for that store.

We then came back changed to some cooler clothes and headed to OU baseball game. We went for two reasons or at least I did 1. being to get my beautiful OU class ring and reason number 2. was to watch some boys play ball in tight pants....did i really just say that....yes yes I did. We succeeded in both those things, so we got out of the heat and went back to the ole apartment.

We changed clothes again, because due to Oklahoma heat we were sweaty. The biffle and I decided to go get some tasty Mexican food and hit up our favorite movie theater the Warren. We saw Fast Five which I recommend everyone to go see. However I was ready to tell some parents behind me to call the babysitter now and for the dang high schoolers to park it.

Got home and I began the process of writing my paper. I have to say I have gotten really good at whipping out a paper in fashionable time and waiting closer and closer to the due date to do it. I blame it on the senioritis.

As for Sunday I woke up early finished my paper and was ready to fall over from tiredness, but when the biffle suggested we go get our nails did I was totally game. We then started watching Private Practice because we were 8 episodes behind.

We still have lots to do, but there was tons of quality time this weekend, which is the best part! Really going to suck come Sunday when we have to part our separate ways.

Mixed Emotions

Tomorrow I have my last class here at OU as an undergrad. I took a full load this semester. I left my electives to take in the end with my capstone, so I could truly focus on my campus, but that is not what happend. Instead my electives were more work than what I hoped for, but life goes on.

In the past I counted down every week until summer arrived, but this semester I did not. I am beyond stoked that in nine short days I will walk across a stage and receive my COLLEGE diploma, but I am not ready to be in a different town from my friends. These girls have been with me all the way and many have graduated, moved, but I still know that they are with me in spirit cheering me on.

There were days I wondered if I would ever graduate college, because it has not always been an easy path. I struggled in figuring out what I wanted to do in life. A wise soul once told me Jess you do not have to stay in one occupation your whole life. That is very true.

I have learned that parents know more than what you give them credit for and that they will always have your back. I can still remember the day they dropped me off at college with tears rolling down my face I was one nervous kid as to what college was going to be. I had high hopes, but was also afraid at failing.

So I am going to try and blog these next nine days straight of what I do each day, because my journay here at OU is coming to an end. I hope one day when I have become a nurse I will get to move back to Norman, which I like to call my second home.

I know that these past few days I have been doing a lot of homework, but at the same time I run at the opportunity when someone asks me to go do something. Another thing is I love to go to class and for some they like to skip and don't get me wrong I do to, but this semester I have had a hard time doing that because I love the class so much and my professor that I hate to miss. So tomorrow I will make one last treck across OU beautiful campus to sit with my fellow classmates for one last class!
