Crazy Days!

Hey girls!

OH MY GOSH!! What a crazy morning!

So today was my first day babysitting the new little boy here in Raleigh. I had to be there at 6:30...AM and stayed until around 8:45...well there's more too it but i'll get there! I got up at 5 this morning, because I just couldn't sleep and I had to be up at 5:45 anyways. I slept all last night with my head buried under my covers and pillows, because DID ANYONE SEE ONE TREE HILL?? Well, I did and when that gas station attendant was dead in the back, and then Q got shot...I was scared to death!

So anyways, I get up at 5, watch the news for a bit and then head out the door...or so I thought! I get to my car, and its so dark outside...so number 1 i'm scared, and number 2 I was already running late!!

As I went to get in my car, my key chains felt lighter, and my car key had been hanging off lately but of course I didn't do anything about it because "there's always later!" So my key dissapeared, and I couldn't find it anywhere...I kept my composure and went into my roommates room and that BRAVE girl let me borrow her car!

So anyways, I got there 2 minutes late and the mom was still there...which is weird because she said she would never be there when I got there, turns out she locked her keys in her car too!! She is such a nice person, and we talked about what great mornings we were having haha! While she was waiting for triple A, we watched Good Morning America, and she likes McCain/Palin '08!

When I met her yesterday, her son was a very talkative outgoing kid...really cute! Her townhouse is really cute too, and she gave me the code for the gym and pool in case my roommates and I ever wanna use it! How laid back!

Anyways, so this morning she left about 7:45 and it was just "J" and I! I kept trying to make conversation, but he wouldn't say much..maybe because it was 8 am and I looked like hell...probably scared the little guy!

Well, after he ate we got in my roommates car and I took him up the street to his bus stop. His mom likes us to walk, but please! I had to be back by 9 this morning so that I could get my roommates car back to her so she could get to class...I drove his ass to the bus stop!
As I drove in at 6:30am, I saw that there were a number of kids waiting for the bus,
...also a kid ran out in front of my car, and it was dark so did I see him, no!
Good thing he was a track star! haha!

So J told me that wasn't his bus stop, and that the place he waited there were no other kids! I had a hard time understanding that...because it was in an awkward spot! Well, its 8:15 and again I have to be back at school by 9 and the bus hasn't come...so I said J-man wheres the bus? He says "I forgot, its not coming today because I am going to the museum...and they are probably leaving soon!"

AHHHHHHH!!

So I said okay, wheres your school because his mom said he knew how to get there...and he wouldn't answer...so I asked again, and again, and again! Eventually we got back in the car and I called the school they weren't good with directions! OMG!

Anyways, so I pulled out the laptop and tried map quest, but it kept freezing! It was 8:20 at this point and I was like, "Why God, Why?!"

I asked if he knew anyone we could call and he said his dad, so we called his dad and got directions, I was just to flying down the road and J kept saying, I hope you have your seat belt on because I bet you've had speeding tickets! HAHA!...only 1 or 2!

So anyways, it was so chaotic and I felt so awful because I thought Lord they are gonna hate me, I have scared this poor, poor boy and he will never want me to come back! Well we got to his school by 8:30 and while he was getting out of the car, I was yelling "EXCUSE ME!" to this guy crossing the street, bc I needed directions, and FAST! J's eyes were the size of pineapples! So I quickly said "Bye J, have a wonderful day, make it better then our morning!" We "pounded it" and then he went inside!

The guy gave me directions, and I made it back to my house by 8:58!!

I thrive under pressure!

J's mom called me ab 10 mins ago and was so apologetic...I told her it was the other way around, I was so so sorry! She said she hoped I wouldn't quit...which I would never quit! Its a great job! I told her to blame the bus system because that's the easiest thing to do! So that's what we agreed to do!

I am hoping tomorrow will be better, I really want to get J a prize so that maybe we can renew the relationship we never had! Any ideas??

Thanks girls, i'll post more later! I am on my way to meet another family to babysit for!!

Great Days!

Hey girls!

I hope y'all had a good weekend!!


So Thursday night, me and one of my roommates went to a party at Sigma Pi with some friends, one of them was so sweet and drove us there and back. He had his fun the night before so he decided to drive that night, thank God! We got there and I saw so many people that I knew from Salisbury!! A real good friend of mine that i've known forever transferred to State and is about to pledge Sigma Pi. I was excited to hear that!
A few minutes later, I ended up outside fighting with C from this summer. With him being 2 hours away its so impossible right now.
Is that just awful?
I don't really think it is...
An hour into the party, after we saw everyone, we all decided to go to Hillsborough and eat at this gross Chinese place (but we were all done for the night so we didn't realize how gross it was!) Just as I was about to eat my eggroll? I saw a little man standing on the sink washing dishes!! AHH! What would my momma say?
HAHA!
It was close to 3 am when we all came back to the house. I went to bed shortly after!
By the grace of God, I made it to my one class the next day! It was such a fun night!
Friday, we all went to some apartment party! I didnt feel good, so I came back early and watched Halloween on TV with my roommate!
I love that movie!
Before I left, I played matchmaker for my roommate and this GORGEOUS boy!!! He shags, so after I got home I taught her everything I know so she can impress!!!! They are both really cute, so oh my gosh I hope they start dating!! One of our other friends asked me out and omg I think hes so cute too...hes a red head and I love a redhead! It was such a fun night!
Unfortunatly, I had to be up by 6:30am for a hair appt in Salisbury the next day! My stylist is so good I just cant bear to find a new one! I got up and it was just pouring down rain!! The highway was desolate! Nobody was driving, and I kept sliding back and fourth!!
Then I saw the light...I saw another car, and felt so much better!
I got in the same lane behind it and we slid all over I-40 together, but at least I had someone to follow. Once I hit Greensboro, it calmed down a little bit...but I hate driving in the rain!
When I got home, I had to go straight to the salon! I went a good bit lighter, because the blonder you go the better you look (according to Reese Witherspoons mother!)
I also got my hair cut...I only wanted it cut to my shoulders, but OH LORD it is so short!
After my appointment I was a mess the whole weekend, sobbing and sobbing like a little baby because I thought it was just way to short!
I spent 2 hours looking up hair extensions, praying for a hair growth miracle, and thinking about getting a hair piece!
I know dramatic much?!

I am interviewing today with a cute family for babysitting, and another one tomorrow and I am really looking forward to it! One of them needs a tutor, and I am really not inclined to tutor anyone in anything except hair and etiquette, but it is just elementary school, and so it shouldn't be that bad!
Also, I came home today from class and found the TV on SOAP network and Melrose Place was on, I didn't realize that Aaron Spelling did that show too...wow that and 90210!
It wasn't bad, but I have really only seen it the one time...and then once in 5th grade when my babysitter was watching it and it was a little juicy for a 10 year old so I didn't keep up!
How funny though that Tom Scavo and Bree Van De Kamp worked together on Melrose Place too! Small world!

Have a great Monday!

Naive Blonde

Hey girls!

Heres a sketch ass story, I swear there is never a dull moment in my life, ever!
I like it that way though, probably because i'm so used to it!
Half the time, its funny...or will be in a few short years!

Last night I went to a frat party with everyone and it was fun! There were probably 200+ people there, it got crazy. We left at 1 or so, and that was good because by then cops were there.

This morning when I got home from school, the cable guys were at the house installing everything. I am so excited! I finally have Lifetime back in my life! My roommate and I decided that it would probably be smart for one of us to be here while the other one went to class just because you never know! I stayed and waited for them to finish. It took them 2 hours because they talked to me forever!
I was just working on some French so when one of the cable guys started talking to me,
I welcomed the break!
He had this goatee, omg, it was out of control! Its really might just me but I think that's so gross! I felt so bad for him though because he kept saying he dropped out of school and he was doing this now.
He kept saying he had no skills, my Lord...pity party?
I was like look bud atleast your working that's always good! Hell, I couldn't hook up cable in someones house if I tried!
I like to think that made him feel better!

Anyways he asked me what my major was, where I went to school, my name, small talk.
After 20?'s I just assumed he would keep working because they had a lot of places to be today, and to be honest I am not all about being home alone with 2 huge men!

But no!

He didn't keep working, instead I was standing just in front of the tv switching channels, and I was wearing my Lilly shirt dress and okay girls, it has like pink and green flowers and like a goldfish printed on it. Anyways so this creeper is like
"Hey I love that dress, is that a goldfish on your bac"
AHHHH OH MY LORD!
After that I was like, lookin a little close there friend!
I really wanted to ask what else he had to do!
I just sat down...on the other end of the couch (its a big L shape) and turned on the a Spanish soap opera, because nobody watches that!!
I thought it would get his ass up and back to work!

Then he said
"girl, did you know you get 5 free movie channels, maybe we can watch one sometime...I am gonna come hang out with y'all!"

I just smiled and kept reading ( at this point I had been reading my new book "Are You There Vodka? Its Me, Chelsea." It is such a funny book! I added it to my collection!) Anyways so I was just trying to read and I really would have just gone to my room but while he was talking he did have stuff I had to sign and he had to tell me how to set up internet so I had to listen, and I will say he wasn't like rude or anything, so its not like I was scared. It just annoyed me!
Then at this point the other cable guy had come upstairs and he flashed me his pearly whites (he had about 2 of them left) and he said he was going to take a smoke break...great!
After he took his smoke break he came back in and set up some stuff, well some how we got on the subject of jail...I was laughing on the inside because I would talk to a cable guy about spending time in jail...geez!
Apparently he had done some time and I didn't ask why! But he kept telling me about all of the people he beat up in jail, and how when he had a repeated offense and went back to prison which was a little bit worse...they were good stories, he told me all kinds of stuff!
He told me if I ever go to prison to give him a call and he could give me some tips on how to survive! I made a note to do that if that day comes...
So, wow, it was just quite the morning!
Tonight the boys are coming to camp in the back yard and cook our pig for tomorrow. Earlier, one of them brought the grill over, and I found out my brother and his friends are coming back up for the weekend so that will be fun! I am getting so excited! It is going to be a good weekend. A bunch of people from the neighborhood are coming too, including the judge!!! That's gonna be fun! She is way to fun to be a judge. She throws all kinds of parties! I am glad we are getting to know her because that could help out later on haha.

We also have an exterminator coming VERY SOON!
Which is just an answered prayer because if i see one more nasty spider all bets are off, im just gonna sleep in the car!
I just cant stand them!

Rollin on a River!

Oh my gosh! I am so excited! Today I had just the best day! No problems or crisis! YAY!

I decided today that I wanted to get a job because I have SO much freakin free time on my M,W, and F's!! I looked on Craigslist, but then found this site for my school where they have job listings. I thought babysitting would be really fun because I love kids, and the family that I had moved to Rocky Mount so I need someone new! I found this family its like a mom and her son and its every morning from 6:30am-8:00am and all that I have to do is get the cute little guy up and get him to his bus stop because his mom is a nurse! Its every other week, and the pay isn't bad at all! So that's option number 1...

Okay, so I saw Legally Blonde, and I was really set on becoming a Child Advocacy Lawyer, but then when I got to school I realized that I had no desire to memorize every law known to man (atleast that's what they told us we would have to do!) I did not wanna major in political science so I went with Communications instead.

I'm really glad I did, but lately I have gotten really into politics, and I think it's all just so interesting! I just got appointed treasurer of the MC Republicans Club and I don't really know what it entails...Anyways, so the other night me and some friends had entirely too much wine and it was a bunch of the boys, and me and they were talking politics so I wanted to see if I could keep up! I like to think I did well! haha! I just cant get over Sarah Palin's speech last night, AMAZING!

SO anyways, on my schools website I saw some jobs at Law Firms just as like a part time office assistant, and a filing clerk. I think it would be so much fun to work in a professional environment...again I can wear a pencil skirt and not need a reason!!

I always find that I do big things in spur of the moment times! I never really think things through, which for me is completely okay, but I feel like other people take such time to make decisions, and I feel like I am just all over the place!!

So as of about 2 hours ago I have e-mailed 5 people about jobs. I just saw that I have 2 interviews next week at different law firms, a babysitting interview, and my school asked me to do this phone-a-thon thing which I just don't think i'll be able to do! I always feel bad calling people and asking for money...I know how much I hate getting those calls unless its for cancer or something! Then its totally okay!

I think this will help me stay busy though, because 2 of my roommates work too from like 2-7 most days so really we don't get our walks, or dinner in until about 8 or so and I think I need to be doing something productive!

Okay on to another subject, so I am sitting with my boss at News 14 watching Oprah, and my Lord...Tina Turner is all of 68 and she can still move like a cheetah!! I cannot believe it, and shes wearing leggings! I hope at 68 my ass will still fit in leggings! GO TINA!
Cher is on there too, but i'm not really a fan...

There really isn't much going on here today, just hurricane stuff...and I did see a few handsome weather men in their fancy suits! I think that is going to be my favorite part of the job, I would just love to have an excuse to look my best everyday. I bet they feel so good about themselves, they are all like little Barbie and Ken dolls, just absolutely gorgeous!

ALSO,
Im sorry, but my boss is hilarious! We just finished dancing our asses off to "Rollin on a River!" I really don't think the news director was amused, but its a good song, he really should have joined in! Hes real professional! He doesn't really like dancing all that much, unless his live shot gets put through at the last minute, then hes all over the place!

AND, last bit of news for the day...
My agent in Greensboro called me today and wanted me to go to the Brooks and Dunn concert for some promotional modeling event, but I already made a hair appt for Saturday and can't do it! Whoops! I hope she calls me again with something else! I do love doing that, but I still like to make sure the jobs are going to be fun.

I hope y'all had a good day!

LOVE McCains VP!

Hey girls!

Oh my gosh! Today was a big day, way to much to do!

I had class at 11, so I decided to sleep in till 10 and it was the best decision i've ever made! I haven't slept in so long!!

Today didn't really get exciting until tonight, one of my friends in Phi Delt texted me and said they were having a party up the street so of course, I was going!

It should be fun, it was last time! I decided I was going to wear this new black dress from BR that I got this weekend, its an XS and it fit like a glove at the time, but now...oh my gosh...now its a little tight! Last night me and all of my roommates watched 90210 and ordered pizza! See, I hadn't eaten all day, so I ordered a large! It was so so so good at the time, but my hips paid for it today!
I wore my leggins to class today, bout cut off my circulation!! OUCH! I have never!

So, i'm gonna wear it anyway with gold flats (that I also found this weekend!!) and go have fun!

Also, tonight one of my roommates and I walked around our neighborhood, the houses are so cute!! I love them, I really want to meet more of our neighbors! After we got back to the house, we put together an exercise machine she brought back in the basement, it took us print out directions, and 2 hours to get that bitch together!

We decided that we would put her machine, my machine, and then some pads down there because we also have an entertainment center and we are going to put a TV with the FIT channel, or out Pilates tapes 24/7! I am so excited, HOME GYM!

OMG! I love love love McCains choice for VP! She is so fun! She has a lot of baggage, and I really do feel bad for her poor daughter because she didn't choose to be in the spotlight, but Sarah Palin is amazing! I really hope they win! Working at News 14 has forced me to love politics! Apparently when election time really comes around they order everyone dinner and we work overtime!

I hope y'all had a good day!
