Second Day of School!
So right now I'm technically working but the kiddos were watching T.V. and I couldn't help but want to update. I took my camera to school yesterday and got some really fun shots. And FUN NEWS the Texas State Facebook page is featuring some of them!

First Day at Texas State
So I decided to make my first day of school interesting by celebrating my last night of freedom the night before. My amazing oldest friend (and facebook wife) Renee drove to San Marcos to kidnap me. We decided to go to The Saint, a club in San Antonio. Kathy came too so we had a fearsome threesome going on. However I had three drinks in under an hour. I had fun club stalking someone who in the end told me "Sorry I was with someone, maybe next time" HA! I WIN!
Anyway, this post is about my first day at Texas State. I didn't get home until 4am last night. I had an AMAZING hangover. So I drag myself out of bed and drive to campus, however I can't remember where the parking lot is. I drive around and finally find a commuter lot. I happened to pick the lot on the opposite side of campus from my class. HOWEVER I did walk from one side of campus to the other in 10 minutes and managed to make it to class on time. (well two minutes late, but that's quite the accomplishment for being lost all morning.
So class was average. It's a business writing course where you learn how to write resumes and cover letters. After class I bought a poster, and started walking back to my car. I made it all the way from Flowers Hall to LBJ and decided I didn't have the energy to walk anymore. I stopped in the Student Center, grabbed a taco, and decided to do some facebook stalking. There were two girls sitting at the table behind me and after some careful ease dropping I gathered that these girls were out at some point partying and had a really good time. THEN - Girl two says to girl one-
"So this morning I pulled out my tampon and a condom came with it"
SO. GROSS.

Tattoos
So I love tattoo art and I got bored and found a few I wanted to share. These were really cool and just kinda caught my eye. Or Cracked me up.
I would love for my tattoo to look more like that. And less like this.

Soundtrack of my life
So I have noticed lately that I can listen to a song and know that it applies to a certain emotion, time period or event in my life. So I started drafting "The Soundtrack of My Life"
My Birth - Brown Eyed Girl
- My parents were under the impression that I was supposed to be a boy, then surprisingly I was born a girl. I'm the middle child of two boys and I love how girlie yet still tomboyish I am!
My Parents Divorce - The Dance by Garth Brooks.
My mom is the reason I picked this song. I think that she believes that while losing my dad was really hard, she wouldn't trade it because of those special moments they had.
My first crush - Check Yes Or No
Yes, during third grade I loved country and a boy named Matt Hoskins. We would pass notes and I think we really liked each other. Once, we held hands under our desks (which sat next to each other) Then for Christmas, I kissed him on the playground and ran away. Yeah. Real Smooth.
My Move to San Antonio - Don't Speak by No Doubt
I was so pissed when my mom moved me from Canyon Lake to San Antonio. It was such a hard adjustment for me and I think I became a huge bitch because it was so hard. I didn't know how to handle everything.
My Crush on Bryan Powell - Carousel by Blink 182
I had the dumbest crush on Bryan Powell for FOUR YEARS. 6th through almost 10th grade. He was in my math class in 6th grade, and I believe I tragically loved him from afar until 8th grade when I finally realized he would never quit liking another girl (I won't out him here). But when I moved to Austin I missed him sitting behind me in advisory so I had a photo of him and Kathy Standage in my locker.
My "run away" - The Anthem by Good Charlotte
Okay, so I was a total loser in 8th and 9th grade and I liked good charlotte. Not only that but I was a total jerk to my parents. At one point I decided to jump on a Greyhound to San Antonio from Austin without telling anyone. DUMB.
Meeting the Nerdherd - A Decade Under the Influence by Taking Back Sunday
So even after meeting the nerdherd and having the most amazing group of friends ever, I still had something bothering me. It was because I hadn't found my passion for music yet. Through Renee, Sam, and Ashley Brandt, I learned how to rock out. Every day. It was so awesome.
My Crush on Darin Moore (High School) - Bathwater by No Doubt
quote "I still love to wash in your old bathwater, love to think that you couldn't love another, I can't help it, you're my kind of man" I painstakeingly watched this boy date around for MONTHS wishing he would date me. I put up with so much crap, and acted like a total creeper. But I couldn't help it! :) Oh high school.
Samuel Edward Belisle - Playing for Keeps by Matchbook Romance
Self Explanatory. Man I was into him.
Moving to Austin with Sam - Your Body is a Wonderland by John Mayer
Sam and I had this honeymoon phase before Ashley Brandt moved in. It was amazing.
First year in Austin - Alive with the Glory of Love by Say Anything
This pretty much sums up the fun, crazy times Ashley Brandt, Margaret and I had. Plus Say Anything was just too much fun. Summed up my first experiences being on my own.
Breakup with Sam- My Stupid Mouth by John Mayer
I literally have a very stupid mouth. Damn my hard headedness!
Affairish thing with Darin- Again, Again by Lady Gaga
Yeah I know this song didn't exist then but it essentially sums up what I was thinking at the time.
Living with Margaret - Get Low by Flo Rida
Marg always thought this song was about her cause she's short. I loved the random dancing and singing we did. Especially in my car.
Worst summer ever - Hang me up to dry by Cold War Kids
*sigh* I'm so glad that's over with
Internship with Vinyl Entertainment - Tell me what to do by Metro Station
So I loved this internship so much, I quit. hahha four in the morning is sooo intense for me!
Dating Chris - Chasing Pavements by Adele
I couldn't figure out if I should or shouldn't be with him for a while. It was so hard to decide what was and wasn't worth it. Luckily a Brit taught me to just love and live.
So that pretty much catches me up on intense musical connection in my life. My internship was exactly one year ago and while I have events like meeting Chris, moving in with my dad, getting into Texas State etc... I haven't had enough time to connect with the music of my recent past yet.
Music is Life. <3 My life is a musical.
