So. After a very- and when I say very I mean VERY- eventful weekend, I decided that life is okay. I'm not going to say great considering I just dropped most of the money I made this summer on books and a new phone... and I'll hopefully be paying my rent from over the summer here soon... Maybe as soon as I get my deposit back from ex-landlord Kevin Hunt? Getting a bit antsy about it since he probably took out a good portion just because he's a jerk.
But I'm kind of excited about this next year! I don't have to retake anything this semester like I thought I would have to: WHICH IS AMAZING. I have three classes specifically for my major this semester which excites me more than you can imagine! Greatest thing of all: I'm on track to graduate in FOUR years. That's right, folks. FOUR. Not five, not six, but four. This is a miracle! No doubt.
Also: everyone is getting back to Pi Phi, which is exciting at least to me. My roommate came in yesterday and it seems like we'll be getting along quite well...hopefully. This also means APO will be starting up soon too (approximately a week from today!) which, again, is exciting.
This year I'm going to try my hardest to not let some things get to me. However, I am going to try to stand my ground when it comes to things I believe in and when I'm supposed to be the leader. Most of my issues last year stemmed from ... mostly being a doormat. We'll see what happens this year- hopefully nothing too dramatic?
Trying hard to plan things ahead of time for APO events. I know I'm going to be busy so hopefully this will work. I don't know. Hopefully I can get some activities in that people like because... as much as APO is founded on Service, you need Fellowship there too so people can get to know each other and bond. Ya'know?
In other news: Ben got us tickets to the Circus on the 30th of September which will hopefully be fun! 7th row or something awesome like that. SUPER EXCITED. He also got us Rob Thomas tickets, but most of you already know that... and you will probably hear it over and over again until after the concert. It's just really exciting and I'm sorry if it's annoying but...that's how I am.
Also got a new phone: the eV3. It's blue and SHINY. Got a 8% off discount for working at Pier one! It's not a lot...but it's still enough. It pays to work at certain places!
That's really...it. Cheers

Jealous of the enV3 (ha)! I wanted it so badly, and I HAVE the money for it, but with school coming up it isn't realistic :/ gotta save every penny. I got the Motorola Rival, which just makes me feel like a twelve year old. But it's got good reviews, all the features, and feels pretty solid, so it should treat me well for the next few years. I'm excited to get it in the mail today or tomorrow... sent it to the office so I can sign on it, woo!
We're gonna rock APO! And of course fellowship is important, after retreat last year I'm actually looking forward to "getting to know everyone" better than we already had. Exciiiite...
I surprised myself (and Jason... and probably others) by purchasing a pair of GREEN shoes this last weekend - a little outside of my picky-about-shit-being-black norm! My old shoes collapsed at Relay for Life and were causing some serious pain over the last week... it needed to be done! I love them though, haha. I'll have to get a picture.

Circus sounds awesome. You'd better have fun. Lots of it.
Also we really need to find some time to hang out.
I love you !!
