march madnesss
It's the beginning of march but it feels like I'm going up a hill.
6 classes and 40 hours a week at work is crrraaazzzzyyyyy.
I barely even have time to hang out with my boyfriend and when we do,
we're both like talking about school half of the time (or helping each other with schoolwork).
Today is my first weekend off in 3 months. My boss is rewarding me for helping him out so much and adjusted the schedules so that I can relax. Technically, I still can't cuz I have a 9am class Saturday and Sunday but it still feels like to be acknowledged and rewarded.
It's a different pace to be at but I feel a lot more confident being in control of my life.
I'm becoming an early bird (21 years; better late than never!) and I feel weird when I don't have anything to do.
Today, I bathed my dogs, updated my ipod (and that takes a while because I get it for free so I have to do a lot of work), finished 5 assignments to get ahead in my online classes, did a load of laundry, cleaned my room, walked/ran with my dogs, and I have to hurry up and shower so I can go to the mall with my best friend in a bit before my boyfriend gets home. I was really hoping I could use today to catch up on my shows but I guess that's for tomorrow. I also need to do my chores around the house before my parents get back from Vegas. They finally begin to leave me alone and I'm at a point where I don't even want to take advantage, lol. It felt weird coming home early by myself last night without getting phone calls from them nagging.
Sounds like I'm talking about a different person, huh?
Just an update on my life. It's better. I'm going to start waking up earlier to squeeze in writing (either here or journaling) and to workout so expect me to get back on track with reviews, gossip, and videos!
'til next time, stay classy!♥

pondering.
In an attempt to diversify my blog and not just blog about books, I'll tend to save some links that I think would be interesting. I saved two that I barely had the chance to blog about here:
http://bitchitudeblog.com/feminist/
Whenever I have conversations with people about men vs. women, they tend to think I'm a feminist. I've never wanted to admit that because of the stigma that comes with that term but after reading this article, I can laugh because at least I wasn't the only one conjuring up certain images in my head.
http://www.ivillage.com/katherine-heigl-marriage-josh-kelley/1-a-418893
This is a series that iVillage is doing and I gotta say, it's a pretty refreshing piece. It's mature, real, and very candid. I enjoyed it a lot. I used to really enjoy Katherine Heigl but after reading how she comes off to people, I lost a little respect for her but after reading this essay, I have grown to like her again. I know I'm not married but I've sometimes had the same thoughts as she did about love and what it means to be in a relationship and often strive for the same things she does.

makes you pensive..
School has started. 36 hours/week @ work and 6 classes at school will equate to a lot of studying, a lot of money, and no sleep,rest, or social life (lol). Expect my posts to be pretty bland this semester. I apologize in advance. Anyways, this is a link to one of the more interesting articles I've come across lately. Don't ask me how cuz I don't even know but it's pretty good. (I'm bored a lot at work)
http://www.aish.com/d/w/48955756.html
It's about how people pick the wrong person to marry and what the usual 10 mistakes are. Some are common sense but are stated in a way that really makes you think. I know this did:

To evaluate whether you have a deeper emotional connection or not, ask: "Do I respect and admire this person?"It's directly from the article and really made me think. I'm normally very pensive on this issue anyways, given my personal experience. That and the fact that I'm aware that this is probably the biggest decision you'll make in life. You may say it's stupid but maybe it's worth a look?
This does not mean, "Am I impressed by this person?" We are impressed by a Mercedes. We do not respect someone because they own a Mercedes. You should be impressed by qualities of creativity, loyalty, determination, etc.
'til next time, stay classy!♥
