Park and recreational tears

Currently watching the last season of Parks and Rec. available on Netflix and I have to say I have never been so close to tears because of a show since the episode of The Office when Steve moved. This latest tear jerker moment was the same reason as The Office because two certain characters moved away from Pawnee. I don't know what it is but watching people say goodbye is hard, even though its supposed to BE A COMEDY!!! I feel like my mom, who by the way cried in Frozen because apparently "the sisters love each other, that's so nice."

Ace of Hearts

In October of 2014 my best friend's mother died of cancer, something she had been fighting practically since I met Hallie in kindergarten. She was such a huge part of my life but today her husband, Mr. Bruce, received a letter from one of Mrs. Chris' students. The letter was addressed to Mrs. Chris, unbeknownst to the author that she had passed, stating how much she had changed their life and wanted to thank her for it.

Mr. Bruce's post on Facebook was today about this letter was the material for his 25th day of happiness out of the 100 days of happiness challenge. Her oldest daughter is following in her footsteps of becoming a teacher and if this letter did anything, it definitely reinforced her excitement in becoming one.

Mrs. Chris was a teacher, and a great one at that, who was able to not only make an impact on her students lives but also anyone who was lucky enough to cross her path. She loved with her whole heart and her family is continuously reminded of that.

Only 6 more weeks left of school and of that only about 25 more days of actual classes. I'm not sure if this is exciting or cause for anxiety but I know that I am so incredibly ready for summer. My inner Olaf is appearing and can't wait to be able to sleep, read, watch TV, and anything else that is not school related for two months. After that my senior year begins...and that's hella scary.

Back to friday the 27th, y'all don't think that was a big finale snow storm right? I mean that couldn't have been...right? It was so weenie and we have had some wicked April snow in the past. I just have to say that this winter was super super disappointing and I must have interpreted wrong when everyone said that, "it's going to be the worst winter yet!".

I was expecting:















But instead we got:

10+9=21?

T-minus 3 days before I officially become a legal alcoholic! It's about time that I finally turn 21 and what better day to spend it on than on a Friday? I told myself that I was going to play it cool for the month of March, but I don't think I actually understand the term "cool". Also, I promise I know math but the title comes from a vine. 

Have you all heard the Bills song from LunchMoney Lewis? Well if not here's a link to the video but be prepared to sing it for THE REST OF YOUR LIFE!

Continuing on music, I just recently found out the Fall Out Boy has come out with a new album this year! If you have Spotify you can listen to it. I think it's pretty good, I especially like "The Kids aren't alright" song but I think the Save Rock and Roll album they had before was the best so far. Either way if you are a fan you definitely need to listen to it (thumbs up emoji)

Changes blow

This school year is going to end with some major changes and I'm already dreading it. My roommates are leaving to go back home since they both will be graduated and I will have to go through random roommate matching again and I don't think I will be as lucky again as I was the last time. I'm already starting to miss them way too much. Sugar Mountain will be closed on Sunday and I'm so afraid the people that worked there this year won't return, even I am having doubts of whether or not I want to go back again. I'm already beginning to miss them too. So many people are leaving and I know it's part of life but I was not prepared for it and am still not prepared for it.
Luckily my best friend since kindergarten just texted me and our conversations are always of the upmost importance; therefore, I shall return to blogger at a later date (tomorrow) so I can give my full attention to Hallie. Hopefully I'll wake up tomorrow with a less depressing blog to post.

Winter is Finally Coming to a Close

Like every year before, Sugar Mountain must close down for the winter events and begin getting ready for summer activities. This means that after about 4 months working, my seasonal job also comes to a close. Unlike previous years, I wanted to have a summer job so that I don't have to move back home but I don't think that golf courses are still hiring. I need to start looking again but my energy for anything has dwindled so much that I already have trouble continuing school work like I should. I really dislike it when winter ends and spring begins.
Also, have you all seen that it's supposed to snow on Saturday? Seriously, weather channel has a snowflake on Saturday, I think it might be a birthday miracle:)
Also Also, if anyone knows of any place that is hiring I would really appreciate the help!

Another Spring Break Post

I have never been more ready for a spring break before. Good LAWD I need this semester to be over. I'm reverting back to my high school years and really feeling an early onset of senoritis. I'm just so done with papers, books, tests, and labs. I just want to go to sleep when I want and wake up when I want without feeling like I have forgotten something important for school. Sit back, read, and/or watch netflix. So done...can't focus....hate writing papers...blaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh.The only bummer is the summer heat, which we will be getting a little bit of on Wednesday since it's supposed to be 65 DEGREES!!!
Also, thank ya yeezus for canceling Coleman's class.

Second Thoughts...

It's becoming more and more difficult to see myself as a speech therapist now than it was before. When I had first made the decision to enter this major, I thought I was making the right choice, especially since I figured it would be nice to pay forward the help my own speech therapist had given me. Unfortunately, as this semester rolls on I find myself becoming more interested in my physics or psychology class than I am in my actual major classes. It's also becoming harder to see myself in the elementary school  setting, helping children with their impairments like I originally thought I wanted.
I have thought of alternatives: accounting, archeology, business (owning my own bookstore), or education but each one enters my mind for a week before I decide that I truly have no idea where I want to be. Plus, all the majors I keep choosing are so deviant from one another, I can't even take them seriously.
Between school, work, and trying to figure out my future career as I'm about to start my senior year, I think I'm beginning to get acid reflux (not really).
Also, fingers crossed that Coleman cancels class;)

Because books are ma liiifffeeee

Here's another movie vs book review. Last night, my roommate headed to Lowe's to get the award winning Big Hero 6 but unfortunately they did not have (well they had a blu-ray but at the time we were unaware that we had a blu-ray player) and decided to get Gone Girl instead. Just a little difference in genre. I of course have read the book and have been wanted to see the movie for a while so I was like "Hell cha, I can take a momentary break from studying that I haven't even started yet!" At the time I didn't realize the movie was 2 and a half hours long.
Any who, the movie wasn't bad. But as usual if you didn't read the book you could easily be lost, especially when they keep switching back and forth between present and her diary entries. Also, there's some iffy acting. But it wasn't a bad movie, the book its way better and takes you for a more emotional loop than the movie can, and causes a more brain splattering explosion when you get to part two that makes you regret every single unlady-like thought you had toward a certain character. If you aren't a reader though you will still get a shock halfway through the movie.
On another note, I'm crossing my fingers for Coleman's class to be cancelled, amiright??
