Looking for a sublease!

So I'm in the process of trying to find a sublease for next semester at Purdue. (well technically I'm still planning on going to Ivy tech but I want to live in West Lafayette) The process is a little more difficult than I expected. I was lucky enough to find a lovely attachment to Facebook called "market place" where people can put up their needs for anything! So I've been looking through 75 different listings trying to find an apartment that's reasonably priced and that accepts rabbits as pets (yes I get to bring Mr flopsy) and I have it narrowed down to 7 options. My favorite though? There's one that's a 2 story apartment with 2 living rooms and kitchens and I would have my own bathroom... oh I hope I can get that one :-)
I must go do homework now though... yay for 3 papers due in one week.

I do

I was able to see one of my oldest friends get married on Friday. I never thought I would be one of those people who cried at weddings but oh my I balled. So here's a tribute to the happy couple!

Time to update!

Summer is officially here and I'm working at Best Buy. I work only 20 hours a week when I asked to be full time... grrr. But that does give me time to spend with family and friends and my boyfriend and of course work on cleaning and organizing my room. I had never realized before how terrible of a packrat I am! I have things from elementary school still! That's a bit much I think. . . well I'm off to walmart to try and buy some organizers!

Making progress

One final down 3 to go and the good news is that I just recieved a phone call from Best Buy asking me to come in for an interview! I'm very excited!

Also I went to find ideas of how to organize my room. Did you know how expensive those organizers are? Goodness gracious! Owell once I get a job that pays anything better than kroger (which isn't that hard) then I can afford to buy those lovely devices.

Just a random question... does anyone know when the whole change to HDTV thing happens? You know how everyone has to buy a new tv just because the jerks decided not to make their way of broadcasting able to adapt to older tvs? grrrrrrrrrrr

Last Weekend

My last weekend before the lovely finals. I hate finals week... it's like waiting around for the inevitable. The good news is though that I'm starting to apply for jobs. I know I should've done that durring spring break but I was in Neon so that wasn't a possibility. I cannot decide where to apply. I know I should just apply everywhere and see who calls me back for an interview but the question is where can I apply that actually pays decently? I worked at Kroger for 2 years and was even a Front End Supervisor and still only made $7.40 but because of the union I worked an hour free every week. I'd love to work a factory job especially at Vera Bradley but I have no idea how to apply there. I've looked all over the internet and talked to so many people and still no answers. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Any ideas would be much appreciated from you :-)

PS in exactly one week i'll be in chicago seeing wicked!!! ahhh i can't wait!

Bring it on home

So I've finally decided something... I am going to come home for school next year. I am just spinning my wheels here at Purdue and to be honest I'm not doing so well. Not to say Purdue is a bad place it's just not for me right now. So I have officially applied to IPFW for some summer classes and the fall term. Hopefully I'll get in and then be able to work a decent job while going to school and helping my family with the whole puppy situation. This is the first decision I have been happy with in months so please don't think I'm wimping out by going home... I honestly am doing something that will be best for me. I'm excited! I'll get to be with my family again! I won't have to wait months to see them! Plus I'll be able to work at a job which is really good for me, it gives me discipline and a sense of pride to bring home money to help support my family.

So wish me luck during finals because this will be my last week at Purdue for awhile!

Help please

Oh it's that time of year when extra credit is all we can do to fix grades . . . so I was wondering if people could fill out this survey for me so I can write a paper for my psych. Thank you for helping!
