Summer Update

Hey everyone! I can't believe it's half way through June already! I haven't been too busy, but I have had a lot of things happening recently! Let's start back where my last post ended! The rest of March was pretty uneventful! Here's the highlights:
-I bought a flute shirt, and I'm kinda in love with it :)
-I spent my day's off with my best friends, and I had the best last two months of school I could ever have!
-I took my math placement test, and I was one point shy of moving up to the next class, so I'm probably going to have to take the test again in the fall.
-I complained that I pay a shit ton of money to live in a dorm and they don't even give us Wi-Fi....it's ridiculous! We still have to use ethernet cords!
-My parents came to visit me and they took me out to lunch and then to Target!
-Finally signed up for classes for the fall! I didn't get any music classes :( Which pissed me off....but I'm dealing with it now...
1. Art Appreciation (Online)
2. Math
3. Symphonic Band
4. Intro to Philosophy (Online)
5. Intro to Gender and Sexuality
-I moved out of my dorm April 30th, and I miss it so insanely much! I hate living at home....
-I am still looking for a job :( On the upside I have two interviews this week! One at ImageSun Tanning Salon right across the street from my subdivision and then at Bed Bath and Beyond as a Bridal Consultant! I am beyond excited!
-I finally started buying stuff for my dorm! I made some money at my garage sale last weekend, and so yesterday I went out and spent it all on stuff for my dorm! I will make a new post with pictures today!
Thanks for reading!

Classes

So! I figured I would take some time to talk about registering for classes. I have to sign up March 28th at 8am (I'm a sophmore). So, at Eastern Michigan you have a ton of Gen Ed classes you have to take before you graduate. I only have 5 of those classes left before I need to enter into a program. I went and talked with my advisor yesterday and this is what she told me: start taking classes that you have to take for your major. Here's my prediciment:  I need to fill enough classes for two more semesters. I apply for the DCP in January of 2012, and, if I get accepted, I will move down there in May. That leaves me from August of 2012-April of 2012 that I need to be taking classes. The classes I still have to take for my gen ed requirements are:
-Speech (I'm either taking this online or writing the essay to get out of it)
-Math (I'm not sure about this yet. I'm in 97 right now, so I need to see what I have to take next)
-1 global awareness (most likely intro to gender and sexuality)
-1 art
-1 humanities
Now, here's where it gets confusing: I'm not sure exactly what I want to do, but I have it narrowed down to two different options; Music Education or Elementary Math. If I do Music Ed then I only have three classes I can take before I have to start studio (the music program). If I do the Elementary Math program, I have approx. 8 classes I can take, and two of those count as my gen ed classes. So now I'm stuck...I need to sit down tonight and figure out how many credits I will have if I go the music route vs the elementary math route. The other thing is that once I move to do the DCP, I'm probably going to stay down there. I want to try and save as much money as possible while on the program and then transfer to either Florida State or the University of Central Florida...because I will have been living in Florida for a year, and I'll get in-state tuition, and I'll be filing as an independent student, so I should get more financial aid then right now because I still file under my parents since I don't have a job. I don't know...

Music Classes:
Musc 101-Music Theory 1
Musc 119-Aural Skills 1
Musc 252-Piano 2 (I'm in piano 1 right now)

Elementary Math Classes:
Arte 220-Visual Arts for Elementary Teachers
Chl 207-Intro to Children's Lit
Geog 110-World Regions
Hist 313-Michigan History
Math 108-Math for Elementary Teachers
Engl 307-Writing for Elementary Teachers
Edps 322-Human Development
Phed 257-Physical Education for Elementary Teachers

Disney time!

I've been trying to figure out what I want to do during my DCP, and I have it narrowed down to these:
1. Vacation Planning: This is my dream! I know basically everything there is to know about Disney World, and I am always helping plan my friends and family's vacations. Being a VP at Disney has it's perks: Air Conditioning, Sitting all day, and being able to trade points for cool stuff like movie tickets and gift cards! This is also, from what i've heard, the hardest role to get.

2. Costuming: This is another field I am extremely interested in! I love costuming, and I would definitely be in fashion design if I had any ounce of drawing ability in my body! I would love to be able to give all the cast members their costumes! For me, I would pray that I would get the location that the characters are at!

3. Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique Host: I love doing makeup and hair and I love helping little girls pick out their dress-up clothes, so this, for me, seems like another great fit for me!

4.Concierge: I feel like, for me, I really love helping people with any questions they may have, and so this seems like another good fit for me!

So I'm feeling kind of sad tonight...I can't stop noticing how amazing my friends are but that they have someone to cuddle with at night. I've never not been in a relationship for this long, and I hate it. I hate falling asleep knowing that when I wake up no one is going to be there next to me. So, I looked up some quotes about how I've been feeling...

College

College is amazing! I love my friends, my roommate and I are best friends, and I have everything I could ask for...except that one person to share my life with. I know it sounds sappy, but all I want is to have someone by my side! I don't wanna get married right now; I just want to be in love again. It's been a year and a half since I've had an actual relationship, and I'm ready to be in a relationship again. I just need to find that one person...Anyways...here are some pictures that I took with my roommate a few weeks ago!
