Christmas & Nursing

First and foremost, this song has been filling my ears with sweet melodious music and now I am craving winter/Christmas celebrations. Despite the fact that this song is bittersweet, for me it isn't. Maybe it's because of the instruments, the bells, or his voice, because let's be honest, it's a nice voice, but I get filled with good memories and feelings listening to it. I'll just chalk that up to me being strange.

Like Watson touched upon in his blog, I am stressing about the future too. Mostly because I feel like I'm shooting myself in the foot & here's why.

I foolhardily accepted an Honors Program nomination, which I tried the previous year and got rejected, and I got accepted, when I really didn't think I would. I pretty much showed all of my bizarre quirks, like how I cannot formulate sentences coherently in stressful situations, but I got it anyway. REGARDLESS, here I am with 5 Nursing classes, 2 of which will have a separate lab & another 2 of which are supposedly the hardest classes in the Nursing program.

To be in the HP, you have to take an honors class. With 5 Nursing classes, my parents basically told me to drop the honors thing and I have to agree. Am I really going to break my back for something that I don't 100% believe in? I'm all for scholastic achievement, but I don't agree with things that program stands for, which brings me to this point.

What I wanna do in the future, because I planned on going to Graduate school at FGCU too, was nurse anesthesiology. The big boss of that Nursing section? ONE OF THE BIG BOSSES OF HP. Granted, he won't remember me after two years, but what if he does? What if that big boss sees my quitting as weakness or something..

Looks like I'll have to put on a pair of big girl panties and endeavor to persevere. In the meantime, USF is looking mighty appealing.

Maybe I should concentrate on even surviving this semester before I worry about 2 years from now :/

Frivolous Update

Thanks to my beloved mother, I have no idea if I'm even doing anything for my birthday, let alone what I would even be doing.

I was already set on watching movies at my house, but she keeps getting all pissy about it and any alternatives, like going out somewhere to eat and then parting ways, doesn't appeal to me :/

EITHER WAY, on the 10th, I'm going to see the Angels & Airwaves, even if that means going by myself, because I feel weird asking someone to go with me and worry they might not like it. That's how I am.. unfortunately.. otherwise, my birthday would go how I would plan it and my mom could just deal with it.

The Glee movie comes out on the 12th and despite knowing what happens, because Tumblr has been kind enough to give me detailed descriptions, it would still be fun to watch it too! That's probably going to be a dad/daughter day, since mom hates a majority of things I love. She couldn't even finish watching Ponyo, because "the movie scares her". I don't even understand.

Got invited to an event from the 12-14th with Blayn and all his friends to go to Fort Lauderdale and go swimming and exploring! I'd be lying if I said I wasn't at least a bit interested in going. Even though it's 16 people that are invited and I'm one of 3 girls, I just think it'd be fun to end summer with a bang, before I jump into 5 Nursing classes =]

I just ordered my books too. I love how FGCU has required books and then "recommended" books, like I'm going to buy something that's not required. However, one of the rec'ed books was "How to Survive and Maybe Even Love Nursing School" and it made me laugh :P

and then I realize Austin is moving that weekend of the 12th and now I am in a conundrum :C

DAY THIRTY

Anything you want to post about.

I need an outlet to talk about my latest guilty pleasure and what better time & place than now :D



This is the closing song for Uta No Prince-sama or another title that I see floating around the internet is Maji 1000%, although I'm not entirely sure why that's an alternative title..

I cannot stop myself from not only listening to this song & since yesterday, I have decided to follow the anime religiously with each weekly release. It's not even that good of an anime either. There are so many things that are lulzy about it, like how the "heroine", who has the CREEPIEST eyes that I have ever seen, doesn't know how to read music, but that it would be a good idea to apply to an extremely prestigious music academy in order to be a composer.

Excuse me, but WHAT WHAT WHAT ARE YOU DOING? That's like someone who wants to be an Olympic swimmer, but can't swim. I'm not the only one that sees a problem with this, right?

Well, within 3 episodes, she can finally read music, so I can't complain anymore... yet. The anime itself is INCREDIBLY predictable and there really is nothing extravagant about this, except for, you know, the fact Japanese men are singing and voice acting brilliantly. I'll put it plainly, but this is one of the best cases of bishie overload that I have ever seen and I am not complaining in the least.

(as of episode 3, the red-head is my favorite. Go figure!)

The reality is, although this anime isn't as mentally stimulating/profound as other ones, this suits my needs. It's happy-go-lucky, brightly colored and cute, plus it takes my mind off of the fact that my mom has been particularly bothersome as of late. The song alone will make me smile like an idiot.

I feel like it should also be mentioned: this anime is based off of a dating-sim video game.. if that wasn't made obvious by "bishie overload" or the fact there's a relatively incompetent female protagonist that I'm supposed to give a shit about. I'm just here for the music, the guys, and their bromances with each other :D

(her eyes are nightmare fuel...)

The fourth episode came out today, so I'm excited to watch it :D

Thus ends this random challenge and I shall go back to not blogging unless I have reason to!

There's nothing quite like hard rock chicken nuggets, weird liquidy BBQ sauce, un crisp french fries, and Blayn texting me telling me about a pool party and not taking no for an answer.

I'm really beginning to think my mom hates me and wishes to ruin my life. The Blayn part of this morning is indeed a surprise, though.

look at my life. look at my choices...

DAY TWENTY-NINE
