American Idol season 7 has begun! The season always starts when I need it most: in the midst of a cold, boring January. The auditions are classic, as always. I am enjoying myself fully. However, last night I missed most if it because I was in a meeting. Tonight, though, I am absolutely tuned in as I write.
The first couple weeks back at school are extremely stressful and chaotic. I hope that is finally over for me. I have to catch up and get into a nice routine. This semester is going to be the most interesting, but most involved semester yet. I get to make my own magazine, I am writing a research paper about gender-based violence in times of conflict in Africa, I am writing another interview-based research paper on women in the military, and I am designing business cards, brochures, posters, etc. I will indeed be a "Jane" of all trades.
And I have great news!!! I cannot believe I even waited until the third paragraph to write this, but...drum roll please. I got my first letter of acceptance to law school from Duquesne! I have somewhere to go next year. Granted, I still will hopefully have more than one school to choose from, but if all else fails I am in somewhere. And now instead of saying that I will hopefully be in law school next year, I know that I definitely will be in law school next year. I have slightly more room to breathe now.
So, I have so much on my mind right now that I can't sort thoughts. Therefore, the next little bit of this blog could be completely sporadic. Here it goes. Yesterday, John Mayer stood up for Jessica Simpson in his blog. I'm telling you what, that John is a nice person. Maybe he'll read this and come to Dayton to marry me. On that note, I will go into football. I am having a desperately horrible dilemma because the Packers are playing the Giants. So, here are the two teams I like best in the playoffs now, and they are playing each other. Dang it. But at least I know I want the Chargers to win. I am one hundred percent on that decision. And last random thought: I miss Ryan so much! Today was a really hard day. We are doing a project on organ donation, and any slight mention of death immediately puts me back into a horrible mood. It's still completely unbelievable. I will never ever ever ever ever be able to wrap my mind around it...ever!
Welp, this blogger has run out of steam. I guess American Idol has sucked all my thoughts away.
