Couple of things on my mind

Things that are flying through my mind right now:

1. Where did Lady Gaga come from? I need to get her album.

2. I should be working on homework rather than blogging, but then again procrastination is my specialty.

3. I'm making enchiladas for dinner tonight despite the fact that most of us won't be even eating dinner together tonight. Chris did pay for the ingredients so that's a plus.

4. Slumdog Millionaire was a great movie, although Steve did say that he thought it was over-rated. He slept through half the movie though so I'm not exactly sure what he's basing his opinion on. I liked it though, it was a very eye-opening experience. Plus the music was awesome- I kept wiggling around in my seat to the beat, haha.

5. I'm feeling super motivated and introspective right now. (Hence the blogging) I wish it would happen more often.

What a boring week!

It was a long and uneventful weekend. I spent most of it at work, and on top of everything I caught a bug that has been going around. It was mainly all head congestion but it was inconvenient to wait tables feeling like that. I think I'm finally getting over it now, so yay!

Tonight Steve and I are going to go see Slumdog Millionaire, which has gotten rave reviews. Seeing as it won the Oscar for best picture last night, we're going to take advantage of my night off to go see it. We'll probably grab some dinner or something before hand, it's a rare occasion that the two of us go out and do something by ourselves and not all of our friends. It should be a nice time.

Graduation is slowly creeping up... times and locations for the ceremony have been set. My college's graduation is Friday, May 22, 2009 at 9 am at Cole Field House, which is where our men's basketball team used to play before they built the bigger and better stadium, Comcast, which is where the main commencement ceremony is happening for the entire university. I won't be going to that one because I am one of 7-8,000 seniors graduating this may and the ceremony would go on forever. Plus, that's the morning of Rachel's graduation at the national cathedral, which I would rather go to.

Hmm what else is going on... oh, I won a free happy hour at a bar in Baltimore called 'Howl at the Moon'. It's a dueling piano bar that I was at a couple weeks ago for my friend Lauren's 22nd birthday (we're all turning 22 this year, how scary???). I entered a drawing when I got there and turns out I won it! It's a pretty cool package, my 1st 2 drinks are free and then they're half off until 8pm. There's also a free appetizer buffet until 730 which has nachos and hot dogs and stuff. I can have up to 100 guests which is really cool so my parents are going to invite some of their friends and steve's bringing his friends and of course, I invited all of my friends. It should be a good time.

I think that's about it... I can't think of anything else exciting that happened in the last week. We're doing the countdown for spring break... 3 weeks from today! :)

It's been a busy couple of months! (What else is new??)

School is in full swing for the last time... Yikes! I can't believe that in May I'll have a bachelor's degree! I feel like I haven't learned enough to have a degree yet... haha-

I'm working my butt off at both Applebees and Mulligan's, so when I'm not there, I'm either doing homework or sleeping!

On Sunday Steve and I cooked dinner for both of our families, 10 people total- It went well I think, everyone got along well and seemed to have a good time. It was the first time both of our families have gotten together since Steve and I have been dating, so we figured it was time for them to get to know each other!

Oh, and it's only 1 month till vegas! I can't be more excited to get out of this cold windy state and go to warm and sunny las vegas in march. we'll be gone for a week- march 16-20, our spring break. There's 6 of us total going- Janet, Brian, Chris and his girlfriend Amanda and then Steve and I.

I think that's it for right now, I have to get some homework done before class at 4, so I better go!
