Getting there...

Ooh, girls. It has been quite some time since I've updated this bad boy. I know, I know--I'm messing up my New Year's resolution because I haven't been updating weekly, but it's been hella busy 'round these parts. So please bear with me.

First up, I graduate in 10 days! I can't believe I'm practically a college graduate. Right now I'm still burning the early morning oil in the computer lab finishing up papers for a few of my classes. I've still got finals week to go but I'm almost to the finish line (thank God). These have been the best four years of my life (so far) and I really can't believe they're almost over. I feel like I'll still go to the library and pretend to study for things just so I can have something to do in my free time.

Speaking for doing things in my free time, I've decided that I either want to start taking dance classes again or take up voice lessons as a hobby. I think I want to audition for plays and commercials and things; it's something I've always wanted to do and I might as well do it while I'm still young, right? I've always loved performing and doing either of these two things will allow me to do what I love on a regular basis.

Also, I competed in my first poetry slam today! I was really nervous about reading my poetry aloud--it's totally different than competing in speech. In speech, if someone hates your literature, you can always blame it on the author; in a slam, it's your original work that's up for criticism (or at least you're supposed to compete with your original work). But I had a blast and will probably post some of my poetry on here for y'all to read and comment on. I need to make sure that it's going to be copywritten though--I can't have some random person trying to jack my poetry swag, lol.

Anyhow, I supposed I should get back to studying. I just needed a break from all of this school business. I'm going to make an effort to update more frequently--after graduation I'll probably have more time, but I have to get internet in my apartment first. :) Until next time...
