Yup, I’m still stressing out. And most likely will be up until spring break. Being in the labs until almost four in the morning sucks! The book for our ad campaign goes to print in 10 days. 10 days. So we’re all freaking out, but everything is starting to slowly come together. The next week will be pure and utter hell. Zero sleep, man I can’t wait.

On a different note, I went to the Coldplay and Fiona Apple concert last night. I think that it was the most amazing concert I’ve ever been to. Coldplay is amazing live! In my eyes they even beat the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Foo Fighters concert I went to a long time ago, and thats really saying something.

Well after this class I will be meeting with my creative group. I’ve got my caffeine pills handy. Hopefully I will get some sleep tonight.

Stress?

I need a drink. A strong one at that.

These past couple of weeks have been very stressful. I cannot count how many times I’ve had to bite my tongue to prevent myself from saying things that are better off left unsaid. Therefore I am starting my weekend off early by going and drowning my sorrows at Joes tonight.

I haven’t had hardly any time at all to get my resume all straightened out. And not to mention zero time to work on my creative resume/porfolio that I want to start sending to ad agencies by the end of March. But I did figure out how exactly I am going to have to produce them, which will save me a lot of money in the long run but it is going to be very time consuming.

Ah yes, a strong drink and the bar scene, the cure for everything.

Getting ready for the “real” world

Thursday, February 9th, 2006

Well I’ve decided what I’m going to do for my creative portfolio/resume. Now it’s only finding the time and the money to produce it. But I do have the ideas and can see it in my head, so that’s a big part accomplished and will hopefully my ticket out of this state to New York City. Yes, that’s right New York. I’ve decided for sure that’s where I what to go come May. Now it’s not where I would want to live for the rest of my life, but I see it as an awesome staring point for a career and a great experience. My friend Amy has been pondering New York also. That would be awesome if we both wound up there, especially since it’s so damn expensive to live there, maybe we come be roommates. I think I would sell my car too, not like I would really need it there now would I?

I’m going to Tulsa this weekend. Some much needed family time and seeing my friends back home. Can’t wait!

Well my friends it has been a crazy busy week. All of my classes are in full swing with projects already due. In AAF we are constantly meeting and brainstorming. I hardly have any free time. I am also playing intramural co-ed basketball, it’s a lot of fun. Tomorrow is one of my good friends birthday. We are all going out to eat at Kyotos then hitting up the bars in our little black dresses, it’s going to be the perfect way to unwind from this crazy week! It seems like the only time I’m ever at my own apartment is to sleep. Does this mean I still have to pay rent? I mean I practically live in the Journalism building and the library this semester.

And now I will leave you all with a picture. This is me with some friends at the Ugly Sweater Christmas party that we threw last semester. Good times!
