Brookdale and Monmouth



So I finally had all of my classes this semester. Let me tell you, it will HOPEFULLY be alright. My Short Stories class is by-far my favorite class and I cannot wait until Monday Morning to go to it again! I knew there was a reason for my madness behind my English major. However, I also dread and hate Mondays with a strong passion because of Public Speaking. It wouldn't be so bad if I wasn't so socially awkward. Woe is me. Sociology is okay. I mean half of my high school is in my damn class and that just makes it worse. In two weeks we have a paper and presentation due about ourselves. Ugh. History is the only class where I can just sit and be miserable. It's so amazing. Come to think of it I have some reading I still need to do for tomorrow. Whoops!

I started my application for Monmouth University and now the only things I have left to do are: get my transcripts, get my dad's navy papers, possibly write a small essay, get $50, and SUBMIT! Gosh. I am so excited. If I don't get in I will be crushed to bits. I have my fingers crossed!

I'm thinking about applying to Rowan, but I'm not sure. The deadline is coming up on March 1st. I'm thinking I should just apply for the heck of it, just in case Monmouth doesn't accept me or something.

Vlog One


Sick Obsession
I really do just have a sick obsession with spending money I don't have. I want to live the lifestyle of someone rich and famous when, in reality, I'm broke and far from famous. I have no style sense and I just like stuff that looks both comfy and loose. Form fitting? Psh.

I actually didn't realize this about myself until my friend pointed it out at a VS event. I buy clothes larger than I need too. (a large opposed to a medium - a 12 opposed to a 10) I think I do this because I hate my body so much that when I wear clothes that are bigger than I am I feel skinnier and then I feel ten times more better!

Right now I keep online monitor shopping. I like to consider it e-window shopping. I'll have the money for the stuff eventually. I mean I still owe my boyfriend the Mets jacket he's been dying for for Christmas. Oops! I have a sick obsession with alternative apparel and I will get something from it when I have the money! I suppose I should pick up one more shift at work to help feed my problem.

Just bought myself the phone case below with the leftover amazon giftcards I had. Can't wait to get it!

New Puppy



The other day my family finally got a new puppy! We've been talking about it for awhile and it actually happened. So here's what happened. Mike and I were sitting in Dunkin Donuts, like we usually do, and my dad texted us and asked if we wanted a new puppy. Obviously we said yes and then he said to hurry home.  Now if you need to know one thing about me is that I love to sit at places like that and spend hours just doing nothing, but as soon as my dad said that I jumped up and ran to the car.

I walk in the door and my dad is on the phone with my mom talking to her and I run upstairs and change. Back in the car we go, now with my dad in the backseat. We had to stop at the bank for cash and of course they take a while and I was so jittery. Finally we were on our way to the PetSmart parking lot.

We pull in next to the car my mom indicated and immediately I saw 10 little puppies in the backseat of this women's car. What happened was my Mom and sister went out to Bed Bath and Beyond and were on their way to 5 Below and on the way over they spotted this women with puppies, next thing she knew they were holding on to our new baby boy. On the way home he threw up on me. I then knew he was perfect.

We just came up with a name for him, Yoda. He is half shih tzu and something else. My mom is gonna ask the women when she picks him up for his shots. I love him so much!

When my Tater Tot and him met it was ... interesting. Yoda screamed and it was just horrible. The next day however they are now best puppy brothers!
