I had my Cinco de Mayo Party. It turned out really well. I still have a fridge full of Coronas. There were several people who told me they would be there that didn't show up, but the people who were there was enough for me. Like 6 people came, and that turned out to be the perfect number. We got drunk and whacked pinatas and played name that tune. I never saw the guy I like to invite him, but that's okay, his loss.

I'm applying for a reality TV show again. I would pick me. I'm quality entertainment. If the people who chose these things don't see that, though, it's their loss, and I can continue being quality entertainment for the people I love, just not all of America.

The Student Activities Awards Banquet was Friday night, and my club won Club of the Year! I'm glad we did, because we worked really hard, and it was great to achieve our goal. As a reward for winning, we get $500 added to our budget, and our club name carved on a stone bench in front of the student center. We also get an article about us in the school paper.

I found out why the cute boy hasn't been around. Turns out he got into a bar room brawl, got a bottle broken over his head, and hasn't really been coming to school because he's been having a problem with dizziness. How crazy is that?! Here's the problem with that though: today is the next to last day I'm working before my party, and I still haven't seen him to invite him! One of my friends thinks I should just get his phone number off of the computer and call him and invite him, but he hasn't actually given me his number, and I don't want him to think I'm some psycho stalker chick, so I don't want to do that. I could really use some advice on this one if anyone would like to help me out. (Hit the contact button above.)

I'm having a Cinco De Mayo party. Last Cinco De Mayo, I went out after work, got drunk, and had to have my friend's dad drive me home. Also, I was ridiculously miserably hung over at work the next day. This time I planned ahead. I am taking off the 5th and the 6th. I can have all day the 5th to prepare for the party, and I can have the 6th to say goodbye to my "Friends." Anyway, the reason for the party is so I can ask the cute boy to come, and again, I haven't seen him for a few days, so I don't even know if that's going to happen. It's really starting to stress me out. Whether he's there or not, the party is going to be awesome. There will be margaritas and Coronas and sombreros and pinatas. It's going to be mad crazy off the hook. Too bad you can't come.

So, I got over hating my job. I'm loving it again. I don't know what crawled up my butt, but I was really cranky for like 3 days before I posted last time.

I went to my friend's 21st birthday party, it rocked. There was a band there, and I got to play bass on a song that my friend Jon sang.

I went to Habitat for Humanity. I ended up leaving at noon, but the time I spent there was fun and rewarding.

The Prince concert was AWESOME! Words can't describe how great it was. That man oozes sexuality.

My dad did make it here, and back home again safely. I really enjoyed the time I got to spend with him. It was quality time. He spent the week at my sister's house, because it's big enough to accommodate extra people, so in spending time with them, I got to spend time in my hometown. Usually I'm not a fan, but it was alright.

I've been trying to work up the nerve to ask the cute boy out, but every time I think I'm ready, it's a few days before he comes in, and I lose my nerve again. I have never asked a boy out before, and it seems really scary. I know that he likes me, but there is still that fear of rejection in the back of my mind. Oh well, I'll work it out.

I am not having a good week. Mostly because I am hating my job right now. I don't even know why I hate my job; I just don't want to come anymore. I'm bored with it. I need something new and different. I'm to the point that I'm considering cutting hair again. I'm going to my friend's 21st birthday party Saturday night, and I was going to ask the cute boy to go with me, but I haven't even seen him this week. This week sucks! Hopefully it'll get better. I got paid today, so that helps. On Friday, I'm going to do Habitat for Humanity with the student senate. I have to be here at 8:15 in the morning, but other than that, I'm kind of excited. It's just 6 more days until the Prince concert. I can't wait for that. My dad is going to be here next Saturday, and I'm really stoked about that. I took most of that week off, but I'll have to come back and work one day. That's part of the reason I'm upset. I was told a while back that I would be able to take all that time off, and now I can't. I can't because the OLA conference is that week, and it would have been okay for me to take off for OLA, but since the reason I want off isn't OLA, I can't, which I think is a huge load of crap. God, it feels good to vent.

I went to a forum today about the proposed Oklahoma Education Lottery. Governor Brad Henry spoke about how it will pay for early childhood and higher education. Oklahoma is only 1 of 11 states without a lottery. Also, he said that in the proposal, a minimum of $250,000 is earmarked for gambling addiction education and support. Oregon has roughly the same population as Oklahoma, and they have made over $1 billion in education improvements. Along with the lottery is a proposed constitutional amendment that would prevent the legislature from backdooring general funds out of education and being replaced by the lottery revenues. I know this was one major concern of a lot of people. Channel 5 was there, and asked me what I thought about it. I told them that I liked the idea, and that anything that makes Oklahoma smarter is a wonderful idea. I was supposed to be on the 5 o'clock news tonight. I don't know if I was or not, though, because I was working.

It's official! I am now a student senator.

My cable got disconnected, and I'm still alive! It's been, like, a week with out TV. I'm just glad the VCR and DVD players still work. I've been watching The Fellowship of the Ring, and am planning on watching The Cat and The Hat tonight. Also I'm rereading my Harry Potter books, which is quite enjoyable. They're very addictive. I didn't start reading them until after I had watched the first movie, now I can't wait for a new book, and the 3rd movie is coming out this summer! Yeah!

Those of you who know me, know that I am a stark supporter of our Commander in Chief, President George W. Bush. He's the man, vote for him.

I had a great weekend this weekend. I went to Tulsa on Thursday afternoon, and got home just in time to get ready for work today. I spent Thursday afternoon hanging out with Shannon. I used to see him on a daily basis, and now only see him once or twice a year. I need to make more of an effort to hang out with him, because we have a blast everytime we are together. This morning when I stopped at QuikTrip, I saw Israel. I haven't seen him in like 2 years, and I called him Thursday night, but he didn't answer. It was kind of a trip. I wish I had had more time to talk to him, but I had to head home. Sydney's birthday party was yesterday. It was fun. The cakes were adorable. Karissa worked really hard, and the party turned out really well.

Happy St. Patrick's Day! Are you wearing green?

Next Tuesday, I am going to be sworn into the Student Senate. There are 21 student senators. They call them the 21 brightest minds on campus. Go me. I think it's going to be lots of fun. I've pretty much participated in all of the activities that they've held so far this year anyway, and I'm planning on participating in everything else, so why not just go all out and be one of them. Also, I declared a major. I was a Liberal Studies major, which basically just means that I didn't know what I wanted to do anyway, so I declared History so that I could be the Student Senate Division Merit Appointee for the Social Sciences department. I had been trying to decide if I wanted to declare English or History, anyway, because I didn't want to be Liberal Studies anymore, so this senate opportunity kind of decided for me.
That said, I hate school, and I don't want to go anymore. What I'm thinking is that I can start CLEPing out of classes, and hopefully I can CLEP my way to an associates degree. My main problem with school is having to go to class, so if I can just do the studying and work through the book on my own, I shouldn't have a problem testing out.

I'm thinking about getting a hair cutting job again. If I can cut hair part time, I'll have an extra paycheck, and I'll have tips to live on throughout the month. Also, the people of Midwest City will have a great cosmetological skill like no other available to them. Cause we all know I'm the best hairdresser in the state of Oklahoma.
