Friday....It's Friday...AND my day has begun...off to a good start. I was told on wednesday that my Comm 101 class would be cancled today...so that was good. THEN i got an e-mail yesterday from my history teacher and it said that we would not have class today....so that was good, all i had was a geography lecture. My roommate decided to sleep though the lecture...(what's new kelly??) But i got up and went and actually took notes...today was kind of interesting. TIME crept along, but i was interested. So yeah...
This weekend i'm going to spend some time with My Sarie and my 3rd floor girls..it should be a good time...We're having a "GAY MOVIE NIGHT" as Jackie would say...(game/movie night...say it fast outloud!) I've not laughed that hard in a long time...Thanks Jax! I went with my girls to a play last night. "Two Gentlemen of Verona" and i LOVED it. It was so funny. Not to mention the main charactor, who happnes to be a dance major with a very nice body, was standing on stage in his tighty whities...WOOOO HOOOO...There was a real live wiener dog in the show too...for those of you who came to see "The Elephant Man" with me...it was the Elephant Man who acted with the dog. His sole companion throughout the show was the dog..and it was soooooooo cute! They even made him a cute little hawaiian shirt to wear later in the show...i almost died! If i get married and my husband says he wants a dog..It's going to be a wiener dog! THEY ARE SOOOO SWEET! There was a guy in the show named Speed who was gay show..well his part was gay, the guy wasn't..But he was hillarious as well. I have not laughed that hard since Jax said "GAY MOVIE NIGHT" But yeah..laughed my face off...it was a goood show!!! (no guys..i still have a face, it's just a saying!) So yeah...HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO KATE WHO WAS ACTUALLY BORN ON FEBRUARY 29TH WITH HER TWIN SISTER BETH....but seeing as how it is a leap year...eh...today is as good a day as any...so HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATE!! (Kate, tell beth i said so!) i'm off to plot against the world..no wait...nevermind. muhahahahahaaha

why? WHY? i had to go to that tutoring thing again today....HOW EMBARASSING....BUT first let me tell you about the speech i had to give today. I forgot my tape...so i had to borrow from my friend Megan. THEN, when i went to give my speech i forgot which evaluation sheet to give my professor, so i felt like a dork. i was walking to the front of the room to give my prof. the paper and i knocked over a desk in front of the whole class. Naturally, they laughed and i felt like a loser. haha...SO..i'm standing in the front of the class talking, telling my story and we had a 3-4 minute time limit. (no sarah i didn't talk about the chicken man) So i'm talking and people are laughing..so i'm getting into it...supposedly at three minutes my friend Megan gives me a sign that i should wrap it up, i didn't see it. so i'm still talking later i look at megan...she's drawing that imaginary line across her neck "time" she mouths to me...i'm thinking...ok three minutes better wrap it up...so i finish my story and sit down...Turns out i talked for 4 minutes an 44 seconds...for every 15 seconds that one is over the limit my prof will deduct 5 pts. I LOST 10 Points for talking too much! ARGH!
SO then..now you're wondering about the tutoring thing. Well, i quick wrote something up today so that i had some material to bring to the scession. Did you know that i write fiction like i am writing for a middle school chapter book? ARGH! SO Tom makes me read the paper out loud to him, fine i can handle that. Then he's like "Let's try some brainstorming, now i know you said you don't like to do this, but let's try it." Of course i wasn't very cooperative..i HATE brainstorming, it doesn't work for me. But Tom pushed on. SO he gets out the paper and say's "ok, what's like the main point of this paper? I think it's the bed bugs." (don't ask about bed bugs...just don't ask) so he makes me do some clustering. I DON'T WANT TO DO THIS....and what's worse...he knows i don't want to do it, so he says "i'm gonna step out and i'll be back in like 5 minutes. I'm gonna make you do this, just try it" and he leaves. I REALLY didn't want to be there. i would have done anything to leave the room...BUT alas, i had no escape...Tom would have seen me and called campus security again...only this time i didn't want to pull on the hammer loop of his pants...i just wanted out...so i humored the guy. i wrote some stuff down..and i felt like a retard. Thanks Tom...I feel like a loser now...even more now than i did when i left Comm. hahahaha!! What a day! *sigh*

OK...i am taking the Idiot Award away from myself and giving it to my roommate Kelly for the day. She is an idiot..just ask her...hahahaha....She's in love with this boy..Sean. She makes me walk ever so slowly to class with her so that she can see if Sean is coming down the sidewalk, then, rather than looking herself she makes me look to see if he's going to follow us into the Hec building. We go into the building to walk, because it is warmer and he stays outside on the sidewalk...so now we don't have him in our sights. As we exit the building we plan our walking time so that we will cross paths with Sean, But does kelly even look at him? NO...she makes me look at him and in doing this we make eye contact and i have to smile...he smiles back..i feel like a dork because Kelly planned all this out..and then DIDN'T SAY HELLO! so now....i have awarded the Idiot Award to my beloved roommate Kelly...Hey girl...This one's for you!
I'm an idiot! Always look at the syllabus and know what is going on. I only got 4 hours and 45 min of sleep last night because my roommate and i were wired...and i got up and got ready for a class that wasn't scheduled for today. It's a reading day. ARGH. I could have just gotten up minutes ago, but no, i had to get up an hour before i needed to and go to a class that wasn't going to take place...I LOST AN HOUR OF SLEEP! I'm doomed for bad luck today. However, on the bright side, I have more time to study for that Geography Exam i have today. YIP! I'm "Skeerd" (scared) So yeah...I win the idiot award for Tuesday! How absurd. Well, i must study for this exam that is going to eat me alive...ahhhh....Talk to you again if i make it through. Don't cry for me Argentina...

I'm back in the game. I couldn't post for a while there. Oh well...So, I just had the longest, busiest, most emotional weekend of my life!!! I went to the state dance competitions and WE RULED!!!! (we as in my old team...the Komettes) They took a wonderful 9th place in High Kick and a TREMENDOUS 6th place in Jazz Funk!!!! I am soooooo proud of those girls....9th and 6th places in the state..NOT BAD AT ALL! It was wonderful....I was so psyched on Saturday though because I got to see so many people that i love and miss. My Brandon was there, He drove down and i got to see him, BIBBS was there with her little Lily, (She's due any day now!) Jamey was there, Heidi was there, Matt Smith, Aaron, and Patrick D were there too. It was so awesome. And quite the opposite of my day before, BUT i won't get into that one. Anyways...I had a blast and i'm still pumped from it all.
I also got to see My cousins...Alexandra and Grant. Grant just turned 1 year old on the 18th of February! YAYAYAYAYA for cute little babies! Alexandra will be 9 years old on March 3rd. She's getting so big i can hardly stand it. STOP GROWING GIRL!!! I love you both! My Aunt and Uncle look fabulous and i enjoyed talking with them. I miss you all so very much!!! I hope it's not such a long time before i see you again....Christmas??? oh geez....
I almost fell asleep in English today. It seems i'm not getting enough rest at night, go figure. Anywho...It is time for me to find some chow..i'm starving. I'll be home for spring break on the 14th of March!!! See you all then...well most of you! Take care....muhahahahahahaha

Thursday, February 20, 2003

I'm hooooooooome....This should be the last time until spring break, which just happens to be in 22 days. So yeah, then i get to come home and do nothing again....like always...but yeah, anyways The Bachelor "aaron and helene's story.." is on, so i have to watch it! Maybe i'll be back later, But i'm in for a big weekend. STATE DANCE!!!!!! later..

SHE PICKED MY GUY!!!!! Trista picked my RYAN...can i meet him? He's amazing...simply amazing....oh man. TV sucks..it's not the real world....BUT....it's made for girls like me....I can dream...*sigh* What a hunk!!! (The bachelorette)
As if he wasn't funny already....TODAY David Arnold just made me laugh. Here are a few quotes from class today:
In reference to the episode of Bevis and Butthead where one of the two jumps off the roof of the garage..and suddenly there is a bunch of people who start to follow their lead.." Get those people out of the gene pool. They needen't be reproducing if they're dumb enough to copy a cartoon." i agree...hahaha
AND when speaking about a movie with Halley Barry(sp) in it...he talked about an award she was given..."She recieved the NOBEL PRIZE for acting" hahahahahaha...He meant Oscar i think...but....hillarious stuff..he had some other good ones, but due to inappropriate language i will not be putting them in here....MY GRANDMA READS THIS! hee hee. SO yeah,
I've had just about enough of being sick. I don't know how much more i can take of it. My throat hurts just thinking about it. booo. BUT i am pumped to go home tomorrow....skipping a few classes, all for a good cause of course...DANCE TEAM! i wouldn't miss state for the world! I love those girls and i gotta watch them!! WOO HOOOO....Ok...well time for me to wash my dishes...it seems i am in dire need of a dishwasher, but no such luck...i AM the dishwasher...this bites. later

I'm so sleepy. Seems to be a trend these days...Megan's tired again..who knew? ACHOOOOO! oh excuse me...i've sneezed yet again, yes mother, i'm taking my medicine. I've got lots of homework to do tonight. I have to decide how to conclude my English paper and read about "The Life of Charlemange" and study for geography...got a quiz on thursday! EEEP! wish me luck. I need it...oh man, another sneeze coming on. I can't shake this cold, maybe some day.
Ya know what bites?? When you go to the cafeteria and you have your heart set on VANILLA soft serve "frozen" yogurt, BUT there is a sign over the pump that says "OUT OF ORDER." This was the case tonight, so i put the sprinkles into the bottom of my cone and thought "hmm..maybe chocolate won't be so bad.." WRONG...i hate chocolate frozen yougurt..i don't even like chocolate ice cream to begin with..so this was NOT a good thing. I ate it the whole way home, and it was finally gone...well now...I'M BURPING CHOCOLATE FROZEN YOUGURT...this is terrible. I need to get my homework done...perhaps i'll tell you more about it later, if not, then i don't deem it important enough to tell all of you fine people. Until we meet again....
aaaah...i just wrote a whole BLOG and it erased..i give up...

Monday, February 17, 2003

I'm a tired one....time for me to hit the sack...But you know..can't go without postin...I had a long day of sitting in the car. boo for long car rides. AND for all of you who would like to know...I've decided that i am going to transfer to St. Mary's in Winona, MN next year for college. They have more opportunities for me at that school, and i will be closer to home. I think it's for the best...I am so tired though, i can't even keep my eyes from slowly crossing....you know, how one's eyes cross when one gets very very tired. well..this is the case with me at this moment. AHHH....bed awaits...Nighty...*yawns*

Saturday, February 15, 2003

YAY!! I'm at home and i've just had the longest day of my life. I had a late night last night, went to bed around 1:30am. THEN, i had to get up at 7:30am to get ready for a college visit. Yes a college visit...i went to see St Mary's in Winona. I really really liked it!! I think i am going to be transfering there next year, i'm not 100% sure yet, but more than likely i'm going to be going there. I KNOW I KNOW ALL YOU PEOPLE AT POINT..you'll miss me, and of course i'll miss you!!!! but hey, you gotta do what you gotta do. Anyways...after the beloved college visit, i went to Wabasha High School and sat through the whole sections dance team competition!! THE GIRLS DID GREAT---FABULOUS----WONDERFUL! I'm so proud of you all. The top four tems at a sections competition advance to state..The Kasson Mantorville Komettes took fourth place in both jazz/funk and high kick. I'LL BE SEEING YOU ALL ON FRIDAY!!! WOW 'EM!! Ok...well...time for me to get my backrub! OH YES....i can not wait! i've needed a back rub for like 3 months...ahhh...the time is here. muhahahahahahaha....ok...TAKE CARE!

Thursday, February 13, 2003

HAMMER PANTS!!!!!
My English tutor was wearing hammer pants today. (for those of you who don't know me well enough to know what hammer pants are..they are my name for carpenter pants) I wanted to tug on the hammer loop, but of course he would have called campus security...That would have been a mess. So anyways, i bet you are wondering now, "why would Megan need and English tutor...isn't she majoring in English?!" Well you are correct..i am majoring in English, however i'm taking an English 257 class...it means i must meet with a tutor once a week for a half an hour and show him(or her) some of my writing. BUT i am taking the class simply to get the credit. I needed 17 credits, and what do you know, English 257 is worth 1 credit, so i grabbed it. So yeah, i don't really NEED the tutor, i just use him to get the credit i need. You know how in the movies people always pray for an attractive tutor...i prayed that my tutor was one of two things,
1. a woman
or
2. UGLY....guess what...i got neither. He's an attractive young man..and i feel rediculous sitting with him for a half an hour while he tries to find something wrong with my writing. (not implying that i write flawless papers, but i AM an English major, writing comes naturally for me) so yeah....Needless to say i wish i hadn't taken the class. I feel like a dork! *SIGH*
What am i to do? I'll get over it...ONLY LIKE 2 DAYS TIL I GET TO GO HOME!!!! wooooo hoooo! YIPPEE FOR ME...I get to have "Matthew Night" or "Megan night" as he would call it....we're going to eat food, watch movies and just do nothing. YAYAYAYAYA...looking forward to that! SO yes, i must find food now..i'm "HUNGRAY!" Later!

Wind and pressure belts? WHO CARES? I just got back from my geo lab, man was that dumb. It makes me wonder how dorks like Haywood can get into teaching! He's such a dork...he actually enjoys looking at the weather map for twenty minutes each morning. some of us would find the time better spent in our beds with our eyes closed! (sleeping of course) Seems that any Joe Schmo can get into teaching now days...
Professor qualifications at UWSP: You must have a high school diploma...you must have attended at least one year of college...you must be somewhat dorky...you must wear tight highwater jeans and the same jacket every day, you must have matted hair (or a mullet), and you must have beady little eyes that jet from side to side when you talk...
come on....Professors are supposed to be smart and intellectual, not some guy with matted hair and HUGE glasses who looks at a weather map for twenty minutes every morning not to mention his obsession with the word "AND." Could we have a longer run on sentence? Don't even get me started on Rodney Riggs...Mr. "i look like a gorilla." anthropology was so easy last sem. all i had to do was copy and know the bold words in the text book. SIMPLE. Oh geez....yet Geo is still my toughest class...go figure. Dork for a teacher, yet the class is impossible...could it be because we don't learn..we just look at the weather map? Very possibly. ahhh...that's better....no more ranting for a while. I think i like this page..muhahahahaha

"Really write with some gusto" encouraged David Arnold.
"Gusto?" i thought fondly...."awww..Gusto...i wonder how that kitty is."
English today reminded me of a prescious kitty i know of...Black and white and fat like you wouldn't believe. I miss that kitty. He was a good cat! However, most cats are good cats. I also miss Lillian, Abigail, and Isabelle. Oh and Oscar and Spike too...so many cats...so little time for me to see them. *sigh* A life without cats would be dull. Time for some chow...see ya!

Sunday, February 09, 2003

*yawns* I'm awfully tired tonight. I didn't do a darn thing all weekend and yet i sit here, tired...tired tired tired! Oh well. I guess being a college student that can be expected. I had a wonderfull weekend, full of laziness and treats...(yummy snacks!) Today i got up at 11am and i got ready for the day then made brownies and valentine cupcakes with Sarah. It was wonderful. The cupcakes are very very yummy! I also watched a movie in her room...OH and last ngiht we made a chain...a countdown to spring break chain for Sarah. It was exciting..i think the last time i made a construction paper chain like that was senior year and i was counting down to Hawaii? maybe? I can't remember. Whatever.
I'm so pumped for this weekend because i get to go home and see my family and my bestest friends ever! I get to spend friday with Matthew...we're gonna watch movies and eat chineese food...mmmmmm i'm excited! The the next day i get to see my Kinzie dance! I'm nervous for her, this is perhaps her last time to ever compete...Sections for dance team is a big deal...and if the team does not get 4th place or better in either routine, they won't be moving on at all. However, i believe that can do it. They can make it with at least one routine...GOOD LUCK!!!
Tomorrow i have to get up bright and early for a beloved Comm lecture. those are pointless. Who needs to be lectured about how to public speak? All lectures are dumb. No one really cares about what is said in them. It's a mass gathering where someone stands in the front of the room and blabs at you for 50 minutes expecting you to be able to follow everything they say. Well i'm sorry people, not everyone gives a hoot! Anyways, i get to skip my English class on Wednesday because it is conference week in English. woo hooo!! I hope i did well on that paper i had to write...well, it's only a first draft, so no big deal if i didn't do well.
Well, i promised myself i'd be in bed by 10pm. and it looks like i can't do it, i don't know about this. We'll have to see how fast and speedy i CAN be. I can move quick like lightning...hahahaha...well maybe. Anyways..my bed calls to me..."sleep in me..." I must go. Sweet dreams all! Until we meet again...*waves*

Saturday, February 08, 2003

OK, so..i'm sitting here and it's 3:32pm and i haven't even showered yet. I thought i would about a half hour ago, but instead i'm still sitting around doing nothing. Ahhh..the wonderfullness of a Saturday. Let's see...yesterday i went to Wausau with Sarie...we went shopping and then we came back and watched Save The Last Dance and ate pizza and candy hearts! That was a good time. Oh yeah, Vanilla Coke...i love it. I'd forgotten how awesome that Pop (Soda?) is...mmmm. it's wonderful. It doesn't quite compare to rootbeer, however, it's still wonderful.
So i was curious if the weather is ever going to get warm?!?! If my beloved Phil the groundhog hadn't seen his shadow, then maybe spring would come by a bit more quickly...but no, He had to go and see his shadow. Is it just me, or does Phil see his shadow evey single year? Does it really matter if the cute little groundhog sees his shadow? Spring will come when the robins say so. and i hope they say so very soon. I have had just about enough of the cold, windy, winter weather. I need a vacation! haha...
Enough of my ramblings, perhaps i'll go clean myself now..and the room. You'd think pigs lived here...well they don't, it's just Kelly and me! WE live here, no pigs. Anyway...I'll be back another time..Enjoy your day!
Hey! This is my brand new page! My awesome brother just set it up for me. Now you can all know what's going on in my life! How exciting!
