Exciting Day, Busy Summer, Wonderful Life


So, I get my braces off tomorrow morning. I'm super excited. I'm tired of them... ;]

And... it's the last day of my JCCC class tomorrow too! And then....Michelle comes over... and we're gonna write a silly break-up song, and then go to Plato's closet (an amazing consignment store with good quality clothes for really good prices...) =]p
I've been taking this Summer class at JCCC called Image Management (sounds funny, right?) Well, it has covered a broad range of stuff, but it's kind about fashion, styles, appearance, business-y stuff, looking and acting professional, colors, textures, lines, fabrics, and all that jazz. So basically, principles of personal grooming, and elements of design, and business related stuff. It has been pretty interesting, but I was NOT in the mood to do all the homework projects. As much fun as the class has been, and even though it was a good experience, I have been really ready for it to be over. The homework assignments were pretty time consuming (like taking an inventory of my whole wardrobe and pricing everything--at least now I know how much money I have in clothes...) That was just one of the assignment... there were many more. It was a Monday, Wednesday class...1-4. Five class sessions. Anyway, I decided to take the class because I'm trying to look into all the areas I'm interested in and get ahead in some classes so I won't have such a busy first semester in college. I'm kind of interested in fashion merchandising, or graphic design, or psychology, or sociology, or really anything... I just like things. ha. Some of these things I don't know a whole lot about...but that's why I'm looking into them now.
And....just to figure out ahead of time (even if it changes) to figure out kinda what I'm headed towards. I'm excited about this stuff. It's gonna be exciting, adventurous, challenging, probably stressful, but, that's life...and I'm lovin' it.
whoops.. haha.. did not mean to slip in an advertisement for McDonald's right there... haha
We had planned, this Summer, for Brian and I to do a lot of reading and studying in History and Economics to test out of it so I can get dual credit (both high school and college) and he can get his Gen. Ed. credits for both classes. If that made sense...we study; we take a test; we get the credit for both History and Economics and don't have to take the classes. it was a great idea...until I got busy studying for the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT), and doing this JCCC class....and I haven't been studying the "two hours a day".
Anyway, I've been having a really busy Summer. I hope there's some time to relax.....hahaha.
Ooh, probably by the 26th of this month (June), I'll have my license!
There's a lot more to talk about... but I have to finish up an assignment... Bleh. Tomorrow in class, there's a "interview thing (class project), my presentation, another assignment due, and then the final to take. =] Crazy day.


ooooooh...... yeah,
I LOVE this song.

There's just something about Chris Rice's music that makes me smile almost every time I listen to it. :]
