Crap! I haven’t updated here in a while. I can’t really say that it’s because of my exciting life. Quite the opposite. Nothing’s been happening around me. I go to school, work, come home, and veg out on the couch until I go to sleep.

Lately I’ve become obsessed with making icons/avatars for livejournal. I was making a cover for a fanmix I was creating last weekend and something turned on inside of me that has given me the inspiration/motivation to make graphics. Mainly True Blood, Torchwood, and other TV shows I like. Speaking of TW (I don’t know who’s a fan that’s reading this), I loved the mini-series up until Day 4. Then the story just went down hill and a LOT of things that happened really upset and disappointed me. I don’t think I’ll be watching the show when it comes back for season 4. Too many things happened that make me want to hit something. I didn’t think I was as invested in the show but I guess I am. I guess I’ll just have to go back to enjoy season 1 and 2 of the show. Again, that probably makes NO sense and is irrelevant to everyone who reads this unless you’re a Doctor Who/Torchwood/Sci-Fi fan. Um. If you like sci-fi, silliness with a slight serious edge, and innuendos among other things, I suggest you try watching Torchwood season 1 and 2. But if not, that’s OK too. :)

School’s almost over. We have a week left until it’s done. I’m SO SO SO ready for summer school to be over. I had my first test on the 20th and got a 95 on it. That shocked me because I went home the weekend before to see my family and meet my sister’s BF. I didn’t have much time to study so getting an A, much less a 95, was shocking.

My 2nd test was yesterday. No so great. So the test, I think, basically killed me. I mean I studied and I know I got a lot right. But I don’t feel as confident as I did on the first test. I don’t think I did as well which bums me out a bit. I wanted to be able to rock a 4.0 in grad school a little longer but I don’t know if I can. Our group project’s presentation/Q&A was and I was worried about that. It didn’t go as badly as I anticipated and I’m relieved it’s over. I just didn’t speak up very much – like twice while the other members of my group spoke tons more – and when I did, I kind of rambled. I hope that doesn’t reflect too poorly on me because I know my stuff and I just get so nervous in presentations/public speaking-type things.

Also – I don’t think my group members care about it as much as I do because they seem more chilled about it. Like, we met yesterday afternoon to finalize our paper and discuss what we’re doing tomorrow. They basically just said ‘Know your stuff and be ready’ and proceeded to play on Facebook for 30 minutes. I think that’s because I’m technically the only true ‘grad student’ in the group and I care more ‘because I’m a Marketing major.’ Apparently Marketing majors are compulsive, anal-retentive project finishers who only care about good grades. Though I never thought of myself like that, I guess you can say I am. I like getting everything right and perfect and strive for the best (grades, results, etc.). Anyway, now I don’t wonder why they probably think I’m weird and look at me funny. Anyway, they don’t care about grades and would probably be content with getting Cs in the class. Not me. I like my A’s.
