Living in Pi Phi

I've moved into Pi Phi. It's more amazing then I thought it would be. And were only at day 5. Scattegories, talking til the wee hours of the night, hilarious Nair episodes, and decorating rooms is what my nights consist of. Living in the sorority house may sound dramatic and unappealing, but it is quite the contrary. I can't wait to get the year started. Study buddies, formals, exchanges, movie nights, girl talk, and just straight bonding. yayyyyyyyyyyyy. I really didn't expect it to be this awesome. But I love those girls with all my heart. And I just know this year is going to be incredible!

Hatred

I'm here to vent. I'm here to talk about the one thing that drive me INSANE. It makes me anxious. It makes me late. It makes me scream and yell. It makes me hit my fist against hard surfaces, leaving me bruised and hurt. It makes me mad for the rest of the day-nay the rest of the WEEK.

I'm talking about...

CONSTRUCTION.

Oh. My. Goodness.

Is it just me or is there construction everywhere I go?

I hate driving in between the "fake wall" and the semi. I hate the winding, narrow roads. I hate the slow speeds you have to go.

I hate the orange round "cones" and feeling like I'm going to hit them

I just hate it

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Sums 09 at an end?

It's hard to believe that summer is over. Partly because I feel like my summer never even happened. Summer school. Two words that should never be in the same sentence. But, I'm thankful I did it. I put away 9 credits. And my classes were some of the best I have taken at the U. But I didn't get to fully experience my first college summer. I didn't go on any awesome trips. I wrote papers and studied for tests.

Then again, how could I ever despise something that empowered me so much? Yet again, I'm rambling about my feminism class. Ahhh that amazing class. Hey everyone at the U! Take Communication and Gender 3070 from Nick Russel. best class ever. Seriously.

Okay, I'm done. For this post at least.

So much has happened this summer! Cassie is pregnant! My sister. 10 months older then me. The girl who I grew up with. I still remember getting all dressed up in crazy outfits, ringing the doorbell and pretending we were orphans to our parents (we were weird). And I remember getting in trouble with her. The kind where she lost her car for a month the DAY she got her licence. And when we stole the Subaru...the one that was a stick shift. We didn't know how to break. Or shift. Actually, we used the emergency brake when we wanted to stop. Oh gosh, those growing up times.

I can't believe she's gonna have one of her own. I'm so excited! It makes me feel SO OLD. ugh. I mean literally, she's less then a year older then me. And she's having kids. Insane! I can't wait to be an aunt. But, I think it will be a VERY long time until I'm having kids/getting married.

Summer. I don't even have awesome stories for the Sums of 2009. Depressing. I guess that means I'll be making up for that this fall. Which, BTW, I'm so excited about!

I MOVE INTO PI PHI IN 3 DAYS! YAYYYYYYYY! Living with about 18 of my closest girlfriends may sound like it will be dramatic and full of hell, but my thinking is quite the contrary. I'm so excited. Those girls have been with me through my entire crazy freshman year. They know things about me that most everyone doesn't. I have the BEST time with them. And I get to live with them! eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

Looks like that will bring some interesting blog posts.

Get excited.
