I haven't posted on here in AGES.
DAMN.
Anyway...

Life is busy. Cleaning, Waitressing, Sleeping. You know how it goes. haha.

Nicole!

So I must say I LOVE my bestie.

I have never really mentioned her on here, except when making fun of past relationships because 50% of my opinion is always rooted in her advice. This past weekend we had talk after talk and all of them were so intellectual and either introspective or worldly. Topics of discussion included:

The Weather (in accordance to el nino/la nina)
Generation Gaps
Why we fall in love
Needs versus wants
How we learn
Why we learn the way we do
Why we're both crazy in our ways

My bestie is one amazing woman. I can't wait until I get over myself and get married so that she can be my maid of honor.
<3

So you can go to Texas State anytime and see the large number of people who look exactly the same. However, the greatest thing I have seen is the individuality in the people closest to me. My roommates are so sweet. I couldn't have asked for a less dramatic group of girls. I really am lucky.

I haven't found a job yet, but I know that if this interview on Monday goes well, I will have one soon. Johnny Carinos should hire me, which would be good. Also, one of the guys who works there lives in my apartment complex. (free ride to work?) haha. I don't think he knows that I know that we live near each other, but that's ok. I've always been one for being a creeper.

I am currently spending my weekend in Austin puppy sitting. It is so strange not being here permanently and running into people I used to know. Apparently last night Rain was THE place to be. I ran into EVERYBODY! It was awesome.

I can't wait for this semester. I have a pretty positive attitude.

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!

But here were my favorites!


This is Texas State at 7:30 in the morning


Outside of LBJ (where my first class is)

Walking to class.

Old Main

The area that made me fall in love with Texas State.

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.

Welcome to Texas State.

Money Money Money Money

Dear Texas State,

Can I have my money now?
Kthanks,

Ashley

Money management skills need to take place asap when I move. I am going to budget, and ACTUALLY follow my budget. I am going to COUNT my money.
And no more buying drinks for people!

Well Then

My big, fat, gaping mouth needs to close.
*note to self* work on that.
