Still Hiatus-y

I still don’t have a new moniter. I’m on my little brother’s computer right now. Which honestly, is complete and utter shit. I want to snag his moniter until I get a new one, but I know he’ll throw a fit if I do. (Even though he’s only here every other weekend…)

I had a pretty rad Christmas though; I got almost everything I asked for. Which would include: new DVD/VCR player, FFXII, The Sims 2: Pets, Silent Hill, The Hills Have Eyes, Tales From The Crypt (Seasons 1 AND 2), and a TON of new clothes. Which needless to say, made me a pretty happy girl.

I’m also enrolling in college tomorrow. I was down there today, but evidently I need to take my placement tests again for some ungodly reason. Since I didn’t have time to take them today, I’m getting up early tomorrow to do it. Once I do that, I can register my classes and then I’ll be a college student again. I’ll have a purpose! I’ve also changed my major to Nursing. After talking to my cousin Jen about it for awhile I think it might be a good occupation for me. I like helping people, and bodily fluids don’t bother me all that much.

As for New Year’s resolutions… I really don’t make any. I do have plans for myself this year though and I’m seriously planning on sticking to them.

  1. College: B’s or better.
  2. Lose 20lbs
  3. Quit smoking (I don’t really know about this one, but I’d like to so I have more money, and yes, that is really the only reason.)
  4. Get myself fixed up money wise.

That’s it for the New Years BS. They don’t seem like the’ll be that hard. College I just need to work my butt off, but I know that I’m finally ready for it and ready to make something of myself, so I’ll have the motovation for that. Losing weight… well, that could be hard. I gain weight very VERY easily and have a VERY hard time losing it. I blame genetics, and really, I can. It’s some really long thing that runs in the family. I’m not really overweight, but enough that I feel slightly uncomfortable in girly clothes.

Anyway kids, that’s all for now.

You and I seem to have some similar “resolutions.” I want to get better with money and lose 20 pounds. Woot! Good luck with keeping yours. :)

It sucks that you didn’t get a new monitor yet. I have two laptops and they’re both shitty. :/

Sounds like you had a kickass Christmas. I’m totally jealous. And you absolutely MUST tell me if FFXII is any good, because if it is I’m buying it. lol.

Nursing is a noble occupation. I have such respect for people in the medical field…jut because I know I could ever do it. lol. My mother was a Nurses Aid for a while, and she’s never enjoyed a job as much as she enjoyed that one.

And I’m coming over to watch TFTC with you. Get the popcorn started, I’ll be there in 5.

You should trade his moniter with tinfoil. I bet he wouldn’t notice.

I should go back to school. Enrolling in college would be a nice thing to do in my life, especially after i’ve finally figured out what i’d like to do. I guess you’re never too late to make changes in your life.

You got spoiled.

So I got FFX for my PS2…and so far I’m not sure what to think of it. The whole s.level and sphere grid thing is kind of driving me nuts, but I’m only so far into the game, so I guess I’ll have to see if it gets better the further I get in.

Yeah, I read that FFXII wasn’t turned-based and I winced. That was the big reason why I went for X instead of XII.

Yay for your resolutions.. You’ve set some pretty steep ones though.. QUITTING SMOKING?? Gee. The only reason I quit was I got bronchitis and still tried to smoke.. made myself SO sick and not to mention that my mouth tasted like death afterwards. Bleck. I still get the shivers thinking about it. I guess it was a good thing though eh?? *cringes*
