I'm Still Alive!!!

Top 5 Reason’s it’s Too Cold to Get Out of Bed.
1. The condensation on the bus window freezes
2. Walking across the quad brings tears to your eyes
3. Within 2 seconds of being outside your entire body is numb
4. When the Las Vegas temperature of 24 seems warm
5. When your professors enter the classroom and simply state “It’s cold outside”

I am SOOOOOOOOOOO ready for spring!! Yesterday Logan was around -5 with wind chill. I was freezing, didn’t feel well, and of course it was my full class day that I couldn’t miss. Can I find some flip flops please?? Maybe I should purchase a one way ticket to Hollywood. I think I can handle their weather right now. Anything warmer than -5 is a welcome change.
It’s been a while since I’ve blogged, sorry guys. Things have been busy. Classes have been…well…boring. I’m not feeling challenged by any of them. I go to class and try my best not to fall asleep. I know it is partly my fault for signing up for them, but my classes this semester are simply to fill my general Ed credits. I also changed my major to journalism and can’t wait to start my classes for that—next fall. I think writing for magazines (I’m thinking pop culture stuff like Entertainment Weekly or being a reporter who interviews nominees at award shows) will be a better fit for me than teaching. I finished my novel back in December and have spent the last few weeks doing personal edits of the first few chapters that I plan on sending out. I dropped my pages off with a friend yesterday to have them grammar edited. Hopefully by Presidents Day I will send my pages to my first publisher. Maybe by summer I could be on my way to being a writer.

It’s interesting how different teachers teach. My English Lit professor is talking about Shakespeare. Last week we talked about him in my theater class and not to be mean, but I think my theater professor did a much better job at explaining him. What can I say?? I have to keep myself entertained!!
