Everything is not… what it seems…

I can’t believe I haven’t posted on this blog since Sunday morning. What is wrong with me?

I’m busy… that’s what.

This week has been hectic, very hectic, but very interesting at the same time. I recieved great news that I’m going to have more than enough money to help cover next semester. ABC News is coming to my school to film it’s evening news next Friday! The pick-up rate at the newspaper has jumped 7% since last semester and that’s because more people are reading the newspaper, which eventually means I’m doing a good job!

Today was a pretty long day… Woke up early to head and pick up my check and deposit it before heading to work. Then I had a Communication Board Meeting and then the newspaper meeting. I thought for a few that I was going to be nominated to be Homecoming Queen and I’m sorry, but no… no thanks. We all nominated Dana to represent the newspaper for the event.

I then went to Walmart and ran into my old best friend from high school. We chatted for a few before going shopping a little. I’m ashamed of myself because I bought a Jonas Brothers poster, but it’s their Rolling Stone cover. I’m going to take it to hang up at work. We all love the JB’s… even our new adviser… his daughters like them.

Other than that, I saw the cutest baby clothes today while looking online!

I really feel bad for not posting much but I have been SO busy. If you would like the URL to the newspaper site where I have a blog at, just yell at me through the comments here and I’ll e-mail it to you.

Just keep gettin’ better!

This week has been one of the most hectic, yet highly interesting weeks of this year so far.

It started out with me going to work and class on Monday and then leave to interview the President of our university. He’s new, having taken over the position barely two months ago. He came from a school in South Dakota so being in southern Georgia is a drastic change for him, especially the accents he joked. He’s really nice and the interview went over well.  The highlight of the trip to the President’s office was finding out that all the ladies in the office are NASCAR fans - a Hendricks fan, Carl Edwards, and I forgot who the others liked. They also liked Tony Stewart and we discussed his race on Sunday and his antics. (more…)

Hugs are overrated, just fyi…

Note: I wrote this last night and for some reason, it was saved and not published:

In two hours, it will be Friday. I don’t know why I’m excited about that, but I am. I need this weekend. I need this weekend badly. This week, while it’s been great, has been weird to say the least.

The newspaper came out awesome today. I had a hurricane story on the front page and then my pop culture column in today’s edition. The new editors are getting better at Quark and we were done before 11 p.m. last night, which is great. (more…)

We’re just friends….

Homecoming Game last year / Carlos

I know a promised a more detail update the other day and I think I’m finally getting to that. I think, because I’m tired and I’m sitting here watching the California race, so I’m trying to stay awake.

First off, my phone is back on and I have a brand new cell phone number. The sperm donor had the old number because I’m such an idiot and gave it to him. So I’m getting used to that and I’m dying my hair back to brown tomorrow because this red thing isn’t for me, I think. Speaking of the sperm donor (aka never been a father), I may have some news concerning him later in the week. (more…)

Being in charge isn’t easy…

The first full issue of the newspaper came out Thursday and drama has already begun with the newspaper this year. F.I.R.E., Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, who has been backing one of my school’s former students who was suspended for stupid reasons, bought an ad in our newspaper, our city’s newspaper, and the U.S. World News & Report, basically dissing our school. It caused drama at our school, with both of my jobs clashing, and just, it’s annoying. (more…)

Fly on the wall

Tomorrow is Friday and so it ends the first week of my final year of college. Sure, I thought last year would be it but my life and direction has taken a real strange turn since last fall. I think I’ve found what I’m good at and what I understand.  I think I also understand why Taylor complained a lot last year. Being the Editor-in-Chief is a tough job. There’s all of these responsibilities, which I don’t mind, just couple that with class and working almost 20 hours a week, it’s tough. I can do it though…. I think lol (more…)

Living in a crazy world…

As you can probably tell by the lack of updates the past few days, everything with me is back in session. The paper is back in session. Class started back today. Work is still going on and I came home and passed slap out until about 9:15 tonight. I was so tired on the way home that I almost fell asleep driving.

Once I get into the swing of things, the regular gossip updates will be back…. the first few days is always hectic!

My schedule this semester? (more…)
