So this summer I want to focus on reading because I love to read and I am sad to say that I only read ONE book all of last summer and that is simply pathetic. I have compiled a list of books that I plan to read over the summer in this order. Some of them I have read before and some of them I was supposed to read during high school and didn't but I really love to read and I am going to try to read as many of these books as I can over the summer so here we go. Here is the list!!

Empty

So today my dad and little sister came to help me move most of my stuff out so that next Thursday I can just grab my stuff and run right out of there. Well now my room is really empty and sort of depressing. Last year I know that I was really excited to move out and go home but this year I think that I am a little thankful that I will be heading right back here for summer school. I am certain that on Sunday when I have to drive back I will not be thinking the same thing. But right now I am not really ready to leave. This is because I am enjoying myself so much at the elementary school that I am working at.

Ok ok my room is so so white and boring without anything on the walls and without my bed lofted it feels so so small and weird. Also I have nothing in like any of the drawers or the closet. SO weird. So now I feel weird like I have nothing to do even though i have a list about 3 miles long. Yes that is actually how long it is. Also i just noticed that this is a really boring post. I am sort of ashamed. I have not really sad anything worthwhile this past month and I am sorry to let you down. Maybe I should just pack it up early for summer vacation.

Moving Out

Ok so I move out not this Thursday but the following and I am now beginning to become a little intimidated by this big task. It will only be my mom and I moving my stuff and that means that I will be hauling everything to the car. ICK. Also I have to take my loft down by Thursday so I have to con my roommate into helping me and FYI our room is full of stuff ever since her friends returned the futon. Oh also the futon has a weird and nasty odor. It is really gross. I refuse to sit on it because who knows what went down on that. I am trying to convince someone in my family to come up this weekend so that I can move most of my stuff out. If this happens I can just keep like a suitcase full of stuff with just the essentials. I really am hoping and praying that the plan works out becuase if I have to haul all of my stuff to the car it will take at least a year to move out. I would not like that at all. In fact I think that I would hate it. Also my roommate better help me take down my loft because if she doesn't then I will not be able to really do it on my own and they have to be down on Friday. I hope that she feels sorry for me since I sort of have no friends. She better not pull the diva bitch thing. That would just piss me off.
I have recently been watching College Life on MTV. Can I just please announce that I LOVE THAT SHOW? Ok so that kid that got the tattoo Jordan I think his name is. I think that you are an idiot. I think that your parents have every right to come and get you from school. Kevin the one that drinks all the time. You are also an idiot. Why are you throwing away your future and why are you not taking anything seriously? IDIOT. If you have not started watching this show yet you need to start. It is possibly the worst/best thing that I have ever seen. Also when I am watching this I thank God that my freshman year of college was not filmed and turned into a reality show. I love the girl who quit becuase it was effecting her grades. I admire her for that.
Also Cinco de Mayo is not Mexico's independence day. I hate when people say that as they ignorantly celebrate with Tequila and tacos. Seriously get it right... although I would really like some Margaritas right about now. bahahaha but seriously that sounds so tasty.

I'm BACK

So sorry about not posting a lot last week. Last week was a very busy and weird week. This week is my 2nd last week of school. I am so excited it is not even funny. This entire weekend I have just been relaxing only today I need to work on stuff all day. Tomorrow is the first time that I am teaching a lesson that I made and I am really nervous. On top of that I am also being observed on Monday. Seriously I have no idea why she had to observe me on my first day. I think that is a little cruel. I just hope that everything goes well. If not I could really care less at this point. All I want is for it to be summer.
Also this weekend my stupid roommate stayed here and she is driving me insane because she is such an idiot. I seriously cannot wait until we are done.
