At 9:28 last night I officially figured out the entire Grey's episode...yes...be jealous.

Oh I hope I get to hear Slow Dancing in a Burning Room tonight. If I do, my life will be complete. If he doesn't play it I think I shall cry.
Meredith is alive! Yay! Oh by the way, and so I don't forget...the last song in Grey's that I want so badly is called Swans and is by an artist called Unkle Bob. I need to remember that when everyone is trying to get that song. Yeah.
Anyhow, this week has been hell and next week proves to give this week a run for its money. I am so sick of work and exams. The only good thing is that I happen to be way ahead on my work. This weekend I have like nothing to do. It is quite interesting and exciting. :)
So, for Lent I gave up anything that has fried in the title. Like fried chicken or fried fish, you know, stuff like that. Oh, and french fries. I know, it doesn't have fried in the title, but it fits. Kinda like when I told my sister I loved berries: strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, cherries. See what I mean?
I am really excited to see N this weekend, and K might be coming to visit me next weekend. I love friends. It's nice to hear from and see old friends because although they are old, they tend to liven up life a bit from the same old UD people.
WEATHER PLEASE GET WARM!!!!! That's all for this post.

It's my holiday...

I finally have time to write. The last week or so has been absolutely crazy. We had a snow day, and that set all my classes into a frenzy. I had two exams already this week, and I have two exams next week. Plus, spring break is only 2 and a half weeks away. It is killing me to wait and wait for break. I need it so freaking bad!!!
So, Fat Tuesday was yesterday. What did we do to celebrate? We ordered breakfast last night around 11 o'clock. It was amazing...pancakes and omelets. Yum...
We tried to celebrate Mardi Gras on Saturday, but we ended up getting a lovely noise violation as a souvenir. So stupid.
I don't have anything profound to say at all today. The weather is not cooperating with me. Although it is beginning to warm up, snow is still on the ground. That makes me quite sad.
Friday I get to go see my two loves: John Mayer and Nicole. :) I am so excited an anxious. I think it will be amazing to just get off of campus for a day at least. Plus, I've never seen OSU.
Attention to anyone who loves summer and bathing suits! Victoria's Secret has its new bathing suits online. YAY! It just makes me want to wear a bathing suit and lay on the beach.
Ok. I'm sufficiently bored with myself. I have no brainwaves left.

Cool bigger sisters paint their nails black for Valentine's Day...

Well, today is Valentine's Day. So far so good... No embarrassing displays of love. A couple little happy surprises, and that suits me well. The best thing about this week is that it was supposed to be a hell week, but the snow took care of that for me. We had no classes yesterday and today we had a half day. Between yesterday and today, I've only had one class. I was supposed to have 3 exams this week, but that went down to only one. I am pretty happy about it.
Yesterday I hurt my shoulder/back in the shower. Ouchie! It hurts like heck today. I don't even know what happened. And my eye has been twitching for the last 24 hours. I think it's the weather. Although I love snow days, I would much rather have classes every day if it was 80 and sunny outside. I keep dreaming of spring and summer and Florida. One day...one day...
Some bad news came my way the other night. I found out a person I really can't stand is going to Spain with the group this summer. That highly disappoints me. There aren't very many people I don't get along with in this world, but I guess this person is one that just gets under my skin completely. Oh well. 51 students are going so I will hopefully avoid the person.
I have all afternoon to do absolutely nothing. What in the world am I even going to do.
Only 3 more weekends until I get to travel back to Pittsburgh for spring break. I am getting ridiculously ready to go home. I will totally need a break by the time it comes. The weather better be good too. I am going through convertible and motorcycle withdrawal. Please, Mother Nature, cooperate with me.
I rediscovered one of my favorite songs ever. Ordinary people by John Legend. I think I need to start getting into some good mellow jazz music. I love it. I could just sit and listen to it all day. It calms me and makes me feel good.
Alright, that's it for now. Happy Love Day!

I colored the Lolli-pop Princess from Candy Land today

Candy Land was my favorite childhood game, and today I got to color a fun picture from the game. When we were little, my sister and I used to fight over Queen Frostine. Her card was always bent. It always makes me want gumdrops, and I don't even like gumdrops.
Today I froze my little gumdrops off. It was 17 degrees below when I went to class this morning. Blah Blah Blah. I wanna live in the hills with Lauren and Whitney. I wonder where Lo lives. She was my fave. We'd be besties if we ever met.
This week is going to be so slow for me. I already finished all my homework for the entire week. Now, I am going to start working on stuff due next week and the week after. My family is coming this weekend; that is why I worked ahead like a dork.
So, the Superbowl was incredibly uneventful yesterday. Two huge disappointments. Number one- the commercials were not even up to par at all. I don't even have a favorite because none even stuck out to me. Number two- the Colts won the freaking game, and you couldn't even tell by the looks on their faces. Peyton wasn't even smiling. Everyone was so yucky. I mean, maybe I am biased because the Steelers won last year, but it seemed to me that the Steelers were a heck of a lot happier than the Colts were. And Peyton has been waiting his entire career for this.
Bam Margera is married. This makes me sad. My chances are diminishing with all my guys. Dierks, Keith, Bam...who is even left for me to love?! Jeez.
I watched Nemo last night. I forgot what a lovely movie it is. And I forgot my favorite line about squishy. How fun! If I get a hamster, squishy is in the running for the name. For some other reason I like the name Vinny too. Who knows why.
Well, I'm a sleepy girl. It's only Monday! I cannot wait for Friday! It better not snow so I can see my beloveds.

I rejoice for January is DEAD!!!!!!!!!!

I have this deep-rooted hatred for January. I can't tell you why. My daddy was born in this month and quite a few of my friends; I was conceived in this month. But I still do not like it. I think it is because it's the first boring month for me since September. October I have my birthday and Halloween, November is Thanksgiving, December is Christmas, and January is COLD and FRIGID. February just flies by, and March means spring is just about to break through. Thank goodness. I have caught myself daydreaming about beaches and bathing suits this entire week. The weather has been horrible; we haven't had a day over freezing for 2 or 3 weeks now. That, my friend, depresses me.
Good news! I have actually been working out and eating well. And it wasn't even my New Years' resolution. This was just randomly me deciding to be better to myself...well, with the help of my jerky biology professor. He seriously may have me convinced that I could die of a heart attack at any second because of the chocolate devotion ice cream I had at Cold Stone the other day. Jeez Louise!
I talked about grammar the other day, and I started to remember things I hadn't thought of since 8th grade English with the unforgettable Mr. Masters. It was like, hey Ash, what's that gerund thing? And I immediately had a flashback of the pedestal the gerund with its royal -ing sits on when diagramming the sentence. Then, I actually know when to use who and whom. I was/am a huge grammatical nerd. The saddest thing is that I loved talking grammar, and I love fixing grammar. It's one of those things I suppose.
I had my interview for Blue Crew (the people who help all the lil freshies move in to UD in August). I got to talk to the lady about riding my motorcycle. I miss the warm weather, and I miss my lil hog more than ever! I long for the bugs in my face, the rumble beneath my dupa, and the wind and sun on my face. Man. Why can't I just enjoy life? Why does there always have to be work and school and money and stress?
Well, there's my update. I'm going to prepare myself for Grey's. I heard Alice Grey is waking up and making out with the chief. Haha.
