Why?!

Ok so it just took me 45 minutes to drive home from campus to west campus!! Why would anyone plan a 10K race that blocks all the exits from campus?!? And aren't these races supposed to start in the morning?? I had a horrible experience with a marathon my freshmen year. I guess that's one of the disadvantages of having the campus so close to downtown.

Anyways, first week of classes went by smoothly. I think I'm going to like IB the best this semester. My class has like 10 foreign exchange students from across the world. It's going to be a really interesting to hear from different perspectives.

As for my minor, it still stands as SCM. But if I don't end up liking OM 335, I just might consider switching to finance. I guess we'll have to wait on that one.

If yall didn't know, I'm planning on studying in the UTLA program next semester. It's an entertainment based internship program in Los Angeles. So while everyone is getting hyped up about the career expo, I need to start finding internships online. It's nice how so many companies come to UT to recruit you. I took it for granted now that I have to look for companies on my own. Sigh.

Ok well I have to go find something to eat for dinner. I think I'm going to go shopping tomorrow for my Labor day. Yay for sales!

I saw Brooke Fraser a couple weeks ago at a conference in Houston and she has the most amazing voice.

I'm a Junior? What?!?

I can't believe I'm already a third year! It's crazy to think that I'm already halfway done with my college career!!

Well if this is the first time you're reading my blog...welcome! I'll be updating a lot on my classes and my experiences throughout the semester, and hopefully you'll find it helpful!

This summer I got the awesome opportunity to study abroad for 5 weeks in Paris! I also blogged throughout my stay in Europe so you can view my older posts to read about that.

Hope everyone has a good first week of class! Go get those free tshirts and free food!

Oh and I don't have Friday classes this semester. YES!

Olympics = my life

Sorry for the lack of updates. There's been nothing going on other than studying lately. I finished my ACC Govt class today though so I only have till Friday with Finance!!! The exam is cumulative, but I think I have a pretty good standing right now.

The Olympics just started this past weekend and I find myself sitting in front of the TV for hours every night. I do this every Olympics, winter or summer. I can literally watch any event and be amused. Did anyone watch the men's 4x100 swimming relay? That was insane! My roomies and I were screaming so much. Got to love sports. :)

I think I'm still moving in next weekend so I'm planning on staying in Dallas after my Finance exam. Hope everyone is enjoying their last couple of weeks.

Surprisingly, I like this version better than the original: Coldplay-Viva la Vida
