Out with a Whisper

Tomorrow launches a new project with Bailey.

Every Tuesday and Thursday for an ENTIRE year, I'll be vlogging. She'll be handling the Mondays and Wednesdays.

We're still looking for a name for our joint vlog, so please submit suggestions!

Spring Ball

I promised a good blog today, so I'll try my best.

I tend to shy away from dances on my campus. It isn't that I don't love dances. I do. I adore dancing, dressing up, and having a good time. I just don't think my campus usually reaches those goals.

During homecoming week, I went to the dance. A lot of freshmen claimed they were going, but bailed on the last second, so I ended up with Stephanie, Jim, and Katherine.

The day before, Vy and I shopped the mall searching for dresses until I finally came upon my dress. I didn't realize it at the time, but it's pretty much a remake of the Little Black Dress from Shock Treatment. Except much shorter and the sleeve is just a thick strap of sequins. I loved this dress. I bought a regular bra, of which I had to manipulate and cut to make it a strapless bra, to go with it. When I walked out of my dorm room in it, I got compliments from the girls on my floor. I felt pretty.

At the time, I had enough confidence to wear my wig for Halloween too. I rocked the blue hair and people thought it was real.

Unfortunately, the food was subpar, drinks were pricey, and Katherine bailed after a half hour. Leaving me with a gushy couple who was my ride home.

I didn't want to go to another dance.

When Spring Ball came up a few weeks ago, I told Kristin the only way to get me to go was to convince Michelle. I thought she was unbreakable. She broke last night.

My ticket was payed for and I agreed because it was a free three course dinner, if nothing else.

So, I pulled on some leggings and a long shirt that shows most of my breasts, and went to the Spring Dance. I'm thankful I did.

I sat at a table of dorks and we discussed Harry Potter OTPs, Doctor Who Series Six Theories, and fanfiction. Nothing better than that. Oh, wait, there is. There was cheesecake and an ice cream bar.

We danced like idiots and had fun.

And then I won John and Eddy's pizzas. Two of them. And a sandwich.

I didn't figure it worth mentioning, but I ran out of meals on my food card this week. God provides in weird ways. One of those ways is gifting me with free food in unlikely places while I have two weeks left to get through.

Life is good.

Sigh, Sorry

Okay, I've totally been bailing on these blog posts.


Really bad.

I apologize.

I promise to do a good one tomorrow

She's a Super Freak

I'm done with freaking out.

I'm applying to UAlbany. If I don't get in, then I don't go.

I'm also applying to Siena College. I love them (and their basketball team). I am more likely to get in there.

If I don't get in, I go to HVCC. Siena set up a program to follow to the T to get all of the credits that will transfer into their English program.

Either way, I'm done with the freak out.

Until finals.

Going Crazy


I’m freaking out, guys.

Really, truly freaking out.

I applied you UAlbany the other day. Logically, I should get in. I have a 3.6 GPA while the required is a 2.5 for my program. But then I started to talk to people.

One of my friends applied in January. Seriously, January. Since then, her application has been “pending”. Sure, she applied for a really tough program for which the required GPA is 3.2. She had the same GPA as I did, along with having completed two years to my one. Why hasn’t she been accepted, if my friends are so certain I will be?

So, I’m freaking out. Near to the point of tears. On a whim, I’ve applied to St. Rose, just to see if I’ll get in there. It’s no longer about the tuition prices. I can figure that out. I just want to be back home.

Sigh.

All I can do is wait.

Easter Summary

Easter was amazing.

I went to a buffet at a golf course, one that regularly costs 30 dollars, for half price. 

It had some of the best food I've ever tasted.

Then took a ride in my uncle's Model A.

Then passed out.

Still half asleep.
