Semester Run Down

Apparently another semester has ended. I am not entirely sure how we actually made it to the end as the summer is just a blur of tests, procrastination, reading blogs in class and sunburns from the beach. At some point I know I was stressed but it was a "laid-back" semester so I guess it never really registered on my freak-out-o-meter. This was supposed to be the summer of Monday Fundays since we rarely had class then but it turned into more Monday cram- everything-in-you-haven't-done-for-the past-week Fundays because we couldn't be bothered to actually do work. Apparently there is a form of grad school senioritis and it has hit my class pretty feverishly. This was the fourth of five semesters of class meaning that this time next year I will have a real j-o-b. Not that a job isnt exciting but I'm not quite sure I'm prepared to be an adult just yet. You want me to be in charge of people's welfare? I still appreciate cereal as a meal at all times of the day and prefer Disney movies! I'm also roughly the height of a 12 year old but I figure that won't change so I may as well work with it. I guess I have to prepare to enter the real world but that's not exactly going to be a priority over my 17 day summer.

But the summer wasn't all for naught- there were plenty of beach days, books read, weddings, and summer love because Project Runway is back y'all and Tim Gunn is the man of my dreams!

So without further adieu, here is the run down of the past few months...

• Blogs read during class: Shameful
• Times snooze button hit: roughly 200 but who's counting?
• Books read not for class: 6 and counting
• Seasons of Project Runway watched on Hulu: 2
• Times my brother made fun of my Netflix selections to study to: you don't want to know
• Field work sites locked in: 2 !!!
• Parking tickets on Folly Beach: 1 (thanks Officer Craig)
• Sunburns: only 2- a new record low!
• Movies seen where I feel like my adolescence ended: 1 (I'm looking at you Harry Potter)
• Movies watched with the kids I babysit: Too many to count but all Disney classics so I'm not complaining
• Number of times fell down concrete stairs at the apartment: 1 (ouch)
• Number of times insane neighbors broke the elevator (again!): I've stopped counting.
• Days where it was too hot to do anything outside: The whole summer
• Times my family referred to a cake as the "Better than sex cake": Enough for it to not be funny AT ALL
• Times a professor spoke to me for 10 minutes thinking I was someone else: 2. Embarassing, yes, but its sort of awkward to correct someone when you're wearing your name tag by your face.
• Number of episodes of Jersey Shore accidently watched: 1 - To be fair, I was making something for camp when my roommate turned on the Season 4 premiere. I must ask- its all a joke right? Its real like "The Hills" was real right? Snooki doesn't actually think Europe is a country right? How on earth do you not look at where your plane is going? I mean they even have the handy map of where you plane is going on the in-flight TVs. I know this because I was on an Ethiopian Air flight for 16 hours- surely MTV sprung for the airline that has TVs. And why wouldn't you check? Knowing MTV I would assume they would send me somewhere crazy that was most definitely not the agreed-upon destination. I refuse to believe that those people are actuallythat ridiculous. I'll just sleep better at night if I convince myself that some producer is feeding them lines to say- it just makes me feel better about the whole human race. Italy? You're welcome

Well that was a whirlwind semester. So if you'll excuse me I'm about to go take advantage of my 2 summer...
