Not enough time!

I should've thought twice before watching Ugly Betty and Grey's Anatomy tonight.

I have an accounting quiz tomorrow and I'm really behind! I haven't even read the chapter let alone done any of the homework problems for it. Luckily we're allowed to drop a couple of homework grades but it's still only the beginning of the semester =(

I also have to write my reading journals for english. I only have to write 5-100 word entries but I feel like they're expecting a lot out of those 100 words and it's getting time consuming trying to find the right words to write.

AHHH and in acting, our teacher gave us this assignment where we have all these requirements that need to be put into our performance that's due next tuesday. The reqs are very strange and there are alot of them.

This weekend is going to be pretty busy too. When will I ever catch up in accounting?!

PS. Those were very good episodes of Ugly Betty and Grey's though.

i can't breathe

Literally. My nose refuses to let air pass through. Oh the frustration!

So today I went to our first mixer of the year for Grammy U. If you didn't know, it's an org for students who are interested in the music industry (that's me!). The mixer was held at the ME TV studios and we got to sit in on a taping of one of their shows. I've always found the film/tv industry interesting as well. I loved directing and editing movie projects in high school and i don't think i was too bad at it. I sometimes think of double majoring in RTF but the requirements for Communications is so different from the B school. For example, you need to take 4 language classes, 3 natural science classes, and 3 rhetoric classes for the basic requirements. Maybe if I thought about it my freshmen year it could've worked out, but i really want to graduate in 4 years :P

I really need to start working out more. I'm going to try to go at least 4 times a week...those tv screens on the treadmills are awesome too :D

Heroes, heroes, heroes....I think i need to watch it by myself. Or at least in a quiet room haha! Sorry friends, I take my shows seriously :P

The Red River Shootout is coming up and i can't go. Bummer. Just so happens that I have an accounting test the monday after. Out of all the classes, it had to be accounting...and then on Tuesday i have an english exam. So those two tests will probably consume my OU weekend. But then I'll get to go back to Dallas the next weekend to celebrate my dad's brthday!

This is one of the cutest videos I've seen. And it's completely relevant as I'm getting drowsy off of my medicine. Gnite!

First day of Fall!

What a great day to start off fall. Hooray for cooler weather and my birthday coming up :P

So a lot of people around campus have been sick this past week, and I so unfortunately caught it from someone :(
I've been having body fevers and a stuffed nose. Last night, my right eye kept crying for some reason. So when I woke up, it was really bloated hahaha.

Career Expo was last week and I really need to get more comfortable heels haha. The expo had a lot of interesting companies this year But I was a little bummed b/c all the companies I was interested in told me to just apply online. So all my pretty resumes weren't put to use...and i didn't get any free stuff either haha :P

A lot of people have exams this week but I luckily don't have one till the start of October. I really need to start visiting my TAs so I don't fall behind when they do come around.

Study Abroad update:
1. If I don't get an internship next summer, I want to go abroad to Australia first semester of Junior year (Australia starts in late July). Then for second semester, go on the UTLA program in Los Angeles and intern there.
2. If I don't get to go to Australia and I don't get an internship, then I'll go on the CIBER program to Paris and then take summer school for the second half of summer.
3. If I do get an internship, then I'll give up my dream of going to Australia and just go to UTLA second semester.

haha watch none of that happen...

Heroes premieres tomorrow!!! ... and Go Cowboys!!

burn baby burn

ACL was on fiyah! that was the craziest fire i've ever witnessed and it was the climax of my acl experience haha. there were a lot of great bands and new music that i got to hear while walking around the park. I particularly loved M.I.A.'s set. She was awesome!

So I officially joined ABSA last week. The meeting had reps from Wells Fargo and they basically went through the 'How to Work a Career Fair' seminar, which was quite nice to hear from an actual recruiter. I'm also looking to join another business org...maybe American Marketing Association??

Career Expo is Wednesday!!! I didn't attend last year so I'm quite anxious to see how it goes. I did go to Scoring Careers last spring but that was a lot smaller than what Wednesday will bring. I'm sad that I left my nice resume paper at home in dallas...I'm also really not looking forward to wearing my suit. I don't mind the heat...it's just that I have flat feet and my dress shoes really kill them. I'm curious to see how long I'll last haha!

In other news, Heroes and Ugly Betty premieres next week!

I'm hungry

I went to the Study Abroad fair at McCombs yesterday and I really want to leave the country now. Talking to all the exchange students really got me excited about traveling and exploring different environments. I'm thinking of either going the second semester of Junior year or the first semester of Senior year. Or maybe go on the CIBER program to Paris next summer. ooooo the excitement...

Tomorrow is the start of ACL and I'm going for free! Well I'm going to be volunteering for 4 hours each day, but we're going to work with the media outlets and artist/publicist relations so I should have some interesting stories to tell after Sunday. I'm really excited to see the Killers again! I got to see them last spring when they came to play at the Erwin Center and they totally blew up the stage. Unfortunately because of ACL, i'm going to miss my team's first IM football game on Sunday. =((((

My apartment is ALMOST done!! yay! They just re-painted our walls. Now they just have to replace one of the wooden tiles and it's all set!

My classes have been running pretty smoothly so I'm thinking of enrolling in an ACC class as well. Time to make up for the classes I didn't take while in LA this past summer...




Time to go to my first ABSA meeting!

9-11

bad mina

so i'm sitting in the mil lab (since i still don't have internet) and i just realized i didn't go to any club meetings this week. mannnnnnnnnnn. living off campus really does make a difference in club participation haha. but i'm still planning on joining ABSA since i've heard a lot of great things from my friends about it. as for the business frats, i don't think i'm going to go through with it. the idea of rushing scares me so much. not what they would make us do, but more of the time commitment you have to put into it...

is anyone thinking of studying abroad? i kind of want to do the EUSA program where you intern in London, that would really interesting. Or i might do the UTLA program where i get to go back to LA for an internship. OR just do a regular study abroad program to Australia. oh the choices! i'm not sure how i'm going to decide on one :(

this weekend should be fun! my IM football team is having practice tomorrow. I'm so pumped! i love IM sports. Quite obsessed actually. but I feel like our team is good this year so hopefully I'll be proudly wearing an IM champions tshirt by the end of the semester. I'm also going to IKEA with my roomie to get more furniture in our bare apartment, which is always fun :P ... and of course another football game! ooo and britney spears is supposedly opening for the VMA's on sunday...now THAT should be interesting.

i don't know if i said this before...but i really like youtube. and harry potter.

Chaos

The first week of school is over and thank God we don't have school tomorrow!

I finally got to move out of the hotel and into my new apartment! There still are workers that come in at 9 in the morning drilling things into my walls...and i don't have internet/cable set up...or a bed/desk/drawer in my room...or even a couch in the living room...but other than that i'm quite pleased with the place :D

My classes turned out pretty good. I'm most looking forward to Fundamentals of Acting. My teacher is really chill and we got to make some group skits on our first class day. It seems like it's going to be a really fun class. I'm least looking forward to accounting 312...ughhhh maybe it's because i despised 311 so much. I feel like i forgot most of 311 over the summer anyways...

My interview last week went pretty well. It was pretty easy actually...just talked about my resume and just had some general questions. But if i don't get the position, then I think I might rush for one of the business frats. Since my schedule is pretty easy and free, this semester would seem like the time to do it if I wanted to join. So basically next week I'm going to try to visit alot of club meetings...yay for free food!!

I also went to the football game yesterday. I'm a little worried about this season...but hopefully they were just having an off day =/

OOOO so since I'm on my laptop i'll put up some pics from my summer in LA:
