Extreme Blog Makeover!

It is time for a make over. The bike was stolen, and I'm about to graduate college and enter the real world. The time for change is now. So now I just need to decided how to make over my blog... I'm thinking of prepping it for my in the kitchen with Bonnie webisodes. It's going to be great, just wait and see!

Oh, yeah I have a blog, don't I?

I'm horrible at maintaining this thing. It's ok though, because here I am writing another entry! Four and 1/2 weeks until I'm done with college. And I'm not freaking out. Still a lot of work to do, but that has yet to keep me from watching several episodes a day of Heros thanks to the Netflix gods. Lord only knows what I would do without them. I'm very focused on international news this semester. I'm on over load as per usual. Each semester varies between knowing everything that's going on in the news to not following the news at all. Which makes me wonder how many people were like me on my off semesters and don't follow the news, which is not good. Read what's happening beyond our border! It's important, if you don't agree with me- you're wrong! Ok so maybe a little much, didn't really mean to shove anything down your throat.

I got a subscription to the Economist which was a horrible idea. I can't stop reading about the demise of print publications, and yet I just bought a subscription, go figure. I don't get around to reading it, it's horrible I feel like such a horrible contribution to the environment. I am trying to be better! Promise!

Ok here I go trying to focus and finish the piles of work that have accumulated around me. Wish me luck!

Prepare for mass exitus to FL ready..set...

At the library. One more day until I leave for spring break! Sandy beaches of Destin, FL here I come. I am not very good at keeping up with my blog. The truth is I don't think anyone reads it and don't see why I should update it, there are so many means of communication. Maybe it's because I'm so journalism focused this semester, but I need a specific focus for this blog. What's my niche audience? Who am I appealing to? Hmm, maybe I'll figure this out while relaxing on the beach. Or maybe genius will strike when I'm passed out drunk. One never knows, does one?

In the mean time, I need to pack for my trip and prepare by making CDs for the long car ride and the like. I hope I don't forget anything. My mom shipped me my summer clothes so I'll have things to wear! Hopefully it'll be warm and sunny enough to wear all of it! It feels so cold here, anything warmer will be wonderful. Being at the beach is relaxing in general. So is drinking alcohol. So really, I can't go wrong here. Perfect.

Turns out I'm not getting my wisdom teeth removed tomorrow after all, what a mess, my mom and I figured out my insurance actually doesn't cover the procedure in Indiana.. I don't really understand. I understand insurance about as well as I understand all the crap we talk about in my business journalism class. Why did I do that to myself? Poor choice for the last semester of my senior year.

Now I have to be productive this weekend as opposed to lying around on the couch half there from all the crazy drugs I'd be on if I had my wisdom teeth removed. Ho hum, a sailor's bum.

Lately I've been feeling like I really want to be done with college and start the rest of my life, but I don't want to leave all my friends. I think I'm just frustrated because I don't have a car and I'm not really involved in anything this semester. I'm just a bum who is taking 18 credit hours and is always trying to avoid her homework. I'm just a little bit confused about life that's all, and I think by leaving Bloomington I'll be able to gain some clarity. Of course it's possible I wont and then I don't know where I'll be.

I hear two French girls speaking French (go figure) and I really wanted to be like "Are you from France?!" But then I realized how weird that would make me sound, and I don't know how the conversation would go on from there. I just thought that was cool, I never hear people around campus speaking French, of course now that I'm back from Paris I hear it everywhere. It's haunting me. It's saying Bonnie- I'll always be hanging around here in an obscure part of your brain, and I'm like get the hell out if you're not going to be useful, I could use that space for more important things like trying to figure out what the hell we're talking about in my business journalism class.

So I realized I need to be vegetarian before I jump to veganism. I wish I had thought of that before I tried to go straight for it, oh well you live you learn. At least now I have antibiotic for my infection around my wisdom tooth now. It still hurts when I chew, but what am I gonna do? I'm getting all my wisdom teeth out soon! Then no more tooth problems, woo! Too bad I can't eat or drink anything before the surgery...
