Ok, just so those of you who are a bit grossed out by my last post don't have to look at it, i'll post something else so that maybe the photo of the gross oreo sized cricket (yes, the size of the cricket keeps getting bigger by the minute) will be pushed down a little. Ummmm, let's see. Last night i went to a coffee shop and did some homework and i really liked it so i think i'll be doing that more often. However, tonight i have to work on my business cards for class tomorrow. they were due yesterday, but i didn't go to class because i haven't been feeling well. so i took a personal morning and just went to work. my internship was sooooo boring yesterday. i worked on some video editing, but it wasn't footage that i took, and it wasn't really for a purpose, hjust so that i could play around with it. kinda lame. Today at work i need to call some schools in the cities and i'm really nervous about it. BUT i just have to do it and get over my fear.
Last night i went to Target to and bought some stuff...and i got a new air freshner for my room. smells really wonderful! ok...dang, class is starting so i have to get going. i'll update later!

laters ya'll!

Oh my freaking skies above....

Look what i just had to kill...on my own...in my room...



the girl (me) was shaking and almost in tears. There is a four letter word that is quite appropriate for now...i think you know the one.

Well hello avid readers!
Today is Tuesday and it's just like every other tuesday. only this day i want to be sitting in my room eating chips and salsa while watching project runway reruns from ANY of the seasons...and instead, i'm stuck in class (have been since 9:15 this morning where we prayed the rosary in my christianity and global context class...no offense to any catholic person who may read this, but i don't get it. furthermore...how is that related to global context?? i think she might have made the connection, but i was so confused and dazed by the rosary that i must have missed that part...ugh!) as i was saying, i'm stuck in class and i'm sick. my throat is sore and scratchy...you know, the normal sicky feeling. not a good feeling. blah blah blah.

I think that tonight when i'm done at work and finished with choir, i'll go home and take a nap. Yeah, i have a lot of homework to do, but i think a nap will be good for me. Besides, i was up until 1am doing homework last night...well i had a distraction when Mel came over to use the computer lab in the basement of my dorm...the other labs had all shut down..poor little thing. so i let her into my building so that she had a computer to use. and i made sure to feed and water her as well before i went to bed. I also provided her with music...gave her my ipod, i did. a right nice thing to do i should think!

Anyway, i better end this. i haven't much else to say and class is almost starting..i gotta print some stuff before we dive in. check ya alls lata! Muahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaa

well i had a refreshing weekend at home. it was good to go and sleep in my own big bed with my big fluffy covers and my kitty cats to keep me company. Though its never good to wake up in the middle of the night and hear a giant thunderstorm and think...."OH S*&#!!! MY CAR WINDOWS ARE DOWN!" let me tell you that's not a good thing. there was a small puddle in my front driver's seat...and leaves wandering their way into my car. i just rolled up the windows and told the puddle tha ti would take care of it in the morning...and ran back in the house and up to the safety of my warm bed. BUT THEN...i realized that the pillows i had in my room were all very flat and that i was rather uncomfortable...so i took turns switching the pillows and trying each one out for comfort. ugh...i had to settle. Now, next time i'll bring my own pillow..the good one. (i know mother stole my other good pillow and moved it to the guest bed in the basement...and replaced my good pillow with jamey's old one that used to have the garfield pillowcase on it. FLAT...thanks a lot. i know you'll say you didn't...but i know your tricks...you can't fool me. my bed had two awesomely firm and plump pillows on it when i left for london a year ago...and now, since ive moved my primary pillow to school, i've noticed that the second one that sleeps on my bed with me is flat! WHAT HAS THE WORLD COME TO???)

oh well..live and learn i guess. i'm the dummy that opened my windows the day before the storm for no reason. huh..wonder what i was thinking...guess i wasn't thinking. And really, if i wasn't lazy, i'd hunt down my REAL pillow and claim it back, but i don't know that it's worth the effort...i'll just bring my primary one home. ANYWAY...I gotta go write something for my class tomorrow...and i'll need to talk some of it out to myself...so being that i'm in a public lab, i don't think this is a good place to do that. i might look like a nut. so i'm out. have a good night kids! YAR!

At all levels...time just goes by too quickly.

Its already almost Friday, I'm three weeks almost 4 weeks into class already, September is halfway through, and Midterm is only a month away. October is coming too quickly for my liking. I don't want to talk about it, but know that it won't be pretty.

For those of you who might be wondering "what the heck do we get Megan for her 23rd birthday that is coming up in a month" I would have to tell you, that like any college student...i am broke. Broker than a person who has no money! So...if you'd like to get me something (and i'm not saying that you have to...by all means, i'm 23..i don't really need gifts) You might consider just sending money. I just bought my plane tickets to Italy...and they pretty much drained my account. SO...just a thought for you.

ON anoher note...i get to go home and see my family again this weekend, this time i'll get to see a few extended family members, i'm pretty excited about that. At any rate, i've been holed up in the MAC lab here at school designing a CD booklet for my class and i'm sooooo tired. so i'm off to bed. But i thought i would give an update. Hope you're all well.

quack quack quack...still a duck. grrrrr

This is Me and Mel...


Mel and i discovered Rusty the Horse our first year here at SMU. Mel was a freshman, and I was a sophomore. We took pictures with Rusty and quickly became great friends with the horse. Over the years that we have been here, i have often visited Rusty, but without Mel. Until now, our last semester together on campus with Rusty...we have returned to take one more set of photos. Here you have it...Adventures with Rusty The Horse: By Meg and Mel.
