In the Sun

I'm back home now. Enjoying the sunshine. Enjoying the warmth. Enjoying my family!
Being back from school has been strange. My mind is still fried from final exams and it's having trouble processing looking for work, which really isn't a good thing.
Also, now that I'm home, I go to bed early. Like it's 10:30 now and I'm seriously considering getting my pj's on and crawling into bed (especially because my sheets have been freshly washed and my bed smells like the sunshine because I hung everything out on the line). What's with that? At school I would never make it to bed before 12:00, but that could be that excitement didn't usually start until after snack (which began at 9:00 pm).
On a completely different note, the other day I was thinking about moving and how often I've done it in the last little while. Since I've graduated I've moved seven times. Unless of course you count my time in Ireland, then it's nine times. Crazy eh? It's definitely become a lot easier to say good-bye to people and also to meet new people.
And on another note, I'm completely at a loss as to what to do for work this summer. The truth of the matter is that I really am not going to be given a chance to be picky because there isn't much around, but I still don't even know what I'm interested in. I love "behind the scenes" kinda stuff where no one sees me (like banquets) but am not sure if there's much of that available right now. I guess we'll find out when I start pounding the pavement later on this week. Yay job searches!
Okay, so now that I've done another random information post I'm going to check the newspaper and see if I can't find myself some workage. Night!

My Castle

This is where I go to school (except that for the majority of the year there is snow everywhere!).

Icons

Icons make me happy. I don't know why but icons like this one...

...always make me smile and think artsy thoughts. I'm not sure what artsy thoughts are exactly, but I think them when I look at icons.

Especially icons related to musical things like the treble clef.
I'm not sure why I'm blogging about icons and musical things or even artsy thoughts, but I am. It could be that I'm writing a 1500 word paper and my brain snapped somewhere along the way that which caused me to think about icons and music notes and artsy things.
Or maybe I'm just strange like that...

Blogging

I don't actually like blogging myself. I often feel like I have nothing special to say or that my life isn't really interesting enough for people to want to read about or that when I do do something interesting it wouldn't make sense to the people who weren't there and the people who are there might not find it interesting to read a blog about something they've just done.
I do however, love, love, love (did I mention that I love) to read other peoples blogs! They always seem to have the most interesting things to say, where as I feel like mine is missed the mark.
Blogs tell me about their lives; kind of like getting an e-mail but not as personal. Through blogging (and Facebook) I've found out about at least five of my friends or acquaintances getting engaged. I've discovered some quirky things about peoples personalities or what their like. For example, Jill will never look into the bottom of the glass when she's drinking. Now that's something I never would have known if I hadn't read her blog. And now every time I drink out of a glass I'm amused; thinking about Jill and her avoid-eye-contact-with-the-liquid-inside-the-cup.
So I suppose that if I find it interesting to read about other peoples quirks, then somewhere out there someone might be interested in mine. Now I just need to find something different to write about.

Oh and this picture makes me happy.

Sleep and Psych

It would seem that the words University and sleep don't go together. Someone told me one time, you can only pick two out of the following three while you're at University: your options are sleep, socializing, and good grades. So it seems that sleep has flown out the window. I am however doing quite well at socializing and attempting to gain good grades.
Last night a friend and I were studying for the psych test we have today. I figured out that once I'm finished this psych course and I combine it with the one I took last semester, I'll have taken eight psych tests; two of which are final exams. Its just a wee bit insane! Don't you think? I thought five was crazy enough last semester.
So I was up til a very early hour studying and visiting. I mean, if I'm not going to get sleep I should probably try and succeed at the other two options right?
Now, however, it's time for me to go finish writing a term paper that's due tomorrow and study some more. Doesn't University sound great?!
