I am so sick of being SO sick . . .

Well as a way to wrap up this month in Blogs, I just wanted to leave a brief note as to what is going on in my life. Currently I am stuck laying on the couch (for the third straight day) finally being in a position for the first time in 24 hours that has not made me want to kill myself. I have been fighting this really really nasty cold since I came back from spring break last Sunday night. I have finally reached a peak (or so I hope) Thursday night. As a direct result from this peak I have slept virtually all day for the last two nights and been so sick that I physically can not move. Super exciting stuff yes?

Well one thing is for sure, regardless if I feel better or not, tomorrow is the day that I am going with Marcel to take my graduation pictures. This means that so much has to get done in order for me to be ready. I have to do my laundry tonight, figure out what I am going to wear, figure out how to do my hair and my makeup . . . blast. It is times that this that I wish that either 1) I was a guy (because they don't care about things like hair and makeup . . . or 2) that I actually LIKED taking pictures of me, but I don't because I HATE looking at myself in pictures, movie clips you name it. But oh well, this is something that needs to be done so I just have to grin and bear it. When I am able to, I will post some pics online.

Better get going, I have a lot to do today with no energy and progressively no time to do it in. Until next time . . . keep it real!

March, 2, 3, 4 . . .

So I just realized that it is almost the end of the month and I have not posted anything for the Merry month of March yet. So here we go . . . Not much has changed with me this month, I left my beloved job at Borders on February 27th because I could not handle working two jobs, 19 credits and graduation and grad school stuff all on top of my externship. Whew. It still feels kinda weird but not as bad as I thought it would be (probably because I am not in there nearly as much any more, in fact I think I have only been in there 3 times since I left). It has been nice because it means I can go home on what ever weekend I want since my other job is closed on weekends. I have been keeping busy with school and work and can not wait until graduation day. 47 DAYS AND COUNTING!!!

Something really big happened in my family a few weeks ago, my younger brother announced his ENGAGEMENT! I am very excited to welcome Racheal and her soon to be born (the day of graduation is here due date, so lets hope she goes before or after that) son to be named Matthew (The middle name is still to be discussed), last I heard they are going for September - November for a date so I will keep you posted. Racheal is a really sweet girl and she is so fun to be around.

My sister's birthday is coming up in just 8 short days, she will be 24. Her kids are growing like weeds and still as cute as ever. Mom has been slammed with weddings with even more to come, the latest was my cousin Trica's wedding last week.

Plans so far include finishing up the school year, finding a job, and making jewelry on commission for a couple places. For those of you who don't know, yes I do have a jewelry "business". It is called Earthen Expressions by Nicholle and I don't really consider it a business yet because I have not really made enough money to call it that. But as soon as I can get some more projects done, I plan on making a blog site for it to get it out there you know.

Well better go, lots to be done. Until next time . . . keep it real!
