So What! Wednesday

So What Wednesday
 
I'm linking up with Shannon for another So What! Wednesday.
This week I'm saying So What! if...
 
  • I'm stressed out all the time because of work and helping the boyfriend with school stuff.
  • I have tomorrow off of work and would rather be working. Having 3 days off in a row is a little much but I know I need it.
  • I still don't blog much. I feel like I don't have much to talk about and I'm also busier than I think. So this is what gets put on the back burner.
  • I spend money I don't technically have. Squeaking by from paycheck to paycheck is getting pretty old though.
  • I need to start looking for an actual job that I can use my degree in. My dad didn't spend all that money for nothing.
  • We are taking things one situation at a time. There's nothing wrong with that. Getting finished with school is top priority over here!
  • This is one of the lamest So What! Wednesday's I've done in a while. See number three for the reason why.
  • After this I'm going to catch up on last season of Armywives. {I have missed this show and want to start watching it on Primetime again.}
What are you saying So What! to this week?

Friday's Letters

I'm linking up with Ashley again for Friday's Letters.
 
Dear Boyfriend, Thank you for being so understanding about me not wanting to find a job and that I'm comfortable at my current one. You are amazing and so caring.

Dear Work, Why did you give me 3 days off in a row? I'm technically not complaining but I need the money.

Dear House Sitting Job, I will see you this weekend for some peace and quiet.

Dear Buddy Beagle, I'm ecstatic that you have friends to play with this weekend. This will make my absence easier. Don't forget to share your toys.

Dear Makeup That Sits in my Drawers, Sorry I'm not up to date on this whole wearing makeup thing. I'm trying to get better at it but I don't want to look like I'm actually wearing makeup when I'm wearing it! Thank goodness for bare essentials and BB Creams.

Dear Fall TV, I am SO happy you are starting up next week! I have missed you. Summer TV is pretty boring minus Pretty Little Liars {which I missed most of this season. Super mad at myself.}

Dear DVR, I need to catch up on Glee so, it would be super awesome if you didn't delete any of my saved shows.

Dear Starbucks, No matter how expensive you are, you are my saving grace in the AM. Thank you! {I should really find my coffee pot and brew my own coffee at home.}

Friday's Letters

I'm linking up with Adventures of Newlyweds for Friday's Letters.
 
Dear Buddy, Today is your birthday and I promise we will have treats and go to PetSmart so you can smell all the dog smells and roam around {and maybe go for a walk}.
 
Dear Fall, I am loving you! Fall and Spring are my favorite seasons and this is a wonderful welcome from the 90-100 degree weather we have been having.
 
Dear House Sitting Gig, I am missing you already but I will see you next weekend. Relaxing with the dogs and being lazy is what it's all about. {Also, spending time with the boyfriend.}
 
Dear Starbucks, If I don't already spend enough time with you I will be spending more time since Fall decided to show up. I can't get enough of the PSL and Salted Carmel Hot Chocolate. Yum!
 
Dear Job Search, Please be over with. I really don't like looking for a career so if something could just show up that would be awesome!
 
Dear Football Season, You are my favorite sport. Even though I never went to an OSU game I still believe I'm a fan and will be watching my Cowboys this year from the comfort of my home.
 
Dear Seattle, Can I just move already. Your amazing temperatures and rain all year round are what I want. Some one needs to get me a job up there. {Bonus, you have the original Starbucks and I would be visiting every single day!}
 
Dear Boyfriend, I know this semester is your toughest one to date but you need to graduate and I know you we are both tired of Stillwater and you commuting four days a week.

So WHAT! Wednesday

I'm linking up with Shannon for So WHAT! Wednesday.
 
This week I'm saying So What if...
  • I'm blowing through my paychecks within a week and a half. I'm actually being somewhat reasonable about them but if people keep having showers or parties I'm going to be broke for a long while.
  • I buy too many latte's from Starbucks. {This is the unreasonable part of my money spending.}
  • I need to be looking for a big girl job but don't want to take the time to get things ready and drive to these places. {I'm trying to be reasonable about spending and getting a tank of gas before the "week" is up and getting a pack of cardstock from Hobby Lobby is just not in the "budget".}
  • With said spending if just dumped $75 at Gap {online and in store} for baby shower gifts. {Don't worry, they will all be returned and reasonable items will be purchased.}
  • Buddy won't be going to the vet anytime soon unless it's for routine things. This chick just paid a $100 vet bill. No thank you!
  • I want to read so many books right now but don't have the cash or the time to do it. I'm so glad Amazon is reasonable with its prices.
  • this week is all about money. This is the one area in my life I need to change but, if I don't get a better job it's not going to happen.
What are you saying So WHAT! to this week?

Friday's Letters

Photobucket

Dear Followers: I'm sorry I suck at blogging. I'm in a blogging rut and would LOVE to get out of it. Maybe link ups are the way to go.


Dear Boyfriend: I hate really dislike that I only get to see you on the weekends. School needs to end now and we need to find jobs in another state so we can move on with our lives.

Dear Work: I understand you have to cut hours but why did you have to cut mine? I don't get why we're short on hours and yet we're understaffed.


Dear Starbucks: I love you so much and yet I can't afford you. I think a single cup of your on sale coffee will be how I get my fix for now. This will be short lived though since you are so manipulative with getting people to buy your coffee and your Gold Card Rewards.

Dear Fifty Shades of Grey: I can't put you down and yet the writing is horrible. I guess that tells you why I'm reading. Whatevs!

30 Day Challenge Day 16

Your Views on Mainstream Music

Really, I think most of the music today is crap. Where's the originality or creativeness? It seems like anyone today can put out a record. No wonder I'm going back to music from 2008 or even 2004. Hell even music from the '90s.

The kids today have no real good music. Things are all "electronic" or lip synced and it's horrible. I will say there are still a handful of great artists and bands out there but they're originally from the 90s or early 2000s. Also, what's with all these Disney kids being singers and going main stream? That's not how it was back in the day when I watched Disney. Miley Cyrus? Justin Beiber? Selena Gomez? They can't sing!

What happened to good music like Nirvana, Seether, Evanescence or even Britney and Christina? I know Britney and Christina are still out there and they're making some good music. But most of the stuff sucks.

Maybe I'm not listening enough or what but music today sucks!

  • I have to make up hours for my internship. {I'm just glad I got one.}
What are you saying So What! to this week?

Weekend Wrap Up

Friday is the start to my weekends. I helped the boyfriend pack his car to go home for the weekend and get most of his stuff out of his room. Friday never really is that exciting. Usually a lazy day but this Friday I found out I have to sign a petition in order to walk at Graduation because I'm having to take 4 hours in the summer {Internship}. So I went from one department to the next between the building my major is in to the Registrar's at the Student Union. I e-mailed the internship coordinator and asked him if I could enroll in the class even if I didn't have an internship yet and he said yes! Score! I filled out the petition form and got enrolled in the class. That same day I called a lady that I'm talking with about an internship and she said she really needs help with things. I told her I have to have 320 hours to fulfill the 4 credits and she said she will call around and see if other people can take me in as well and help in getting these hours completed. I also have to satisfy 8 out of 14 goals for the internship and I sent those to her as well. She said I can start working this week if I like! So, Monday I will have my advisor sign the petition form and hopefully I can personally hand it to each person it needs to go to in order to see that everything gets signed and filled out on time. 

Saturday was my cousin's wedding. {I almost missed it!} I woke up around 2:00 thinking the wedding was at 7! Man was I wrong! It was at 4:30 and I had to drive an hour and 15 minutes away. To say the least I was running around like a mad woman. I got there with time to spare. Weddings never seem to actually start on time {at least the ones I've been to which is roughly one a year since 2003!} So I didn't miss it and it was a beautiful ceremony. The reception was a lot of fun too. Good food and great times talking with people I haven't seen in years! Plus, a little dancing here and there. 

Sunday is always my lazy day. I usually get up in the afternoon sometime and have my coffee and read blog posts and such. Today I studied for my only final which is today. I'm not too worried about it. I have a border line B in the class and even if I studied everything I probably wouldn't get the grade I need for a B so I'm not stressing about it. 

I hope everyone had a great weekend!

30 Day Challenge Day 14

Your Earliest Memory

I really wish I could say I have a good one for this but I really don't. I lot of the things I've done I've seem to have forgotten. This is why I'm glad we have cameras and video recorders.

The one thing I can remember is my sister got this Big Bird Book for Christmas and we had {still have} this box of blocks. I was probably 4 or 5 at the time and my dad and I built this huge castle with the blocks. I say huge but it was probably only two feet tall. For a little kid that's big though! I do remember we used all of the blocks!

These aren't building blocks like kids today have. These are hard, little, different shaped cement blocks. We had all different shapes. Triangles, squares, rectangles, circles and even ones that had arches in them. These blocks were probably one of my parents and they passed them down to us. But I'm not really certain.
