Common Topics of Conversation

Guys....I am a nerd!

It is official! School is back underway and I am daily, finding ways to cement my fate as a self-made nerd.

Here are the Top 5 Reasons:

5) Last weekend we came home from ACL (Austin City Limits Music Festival)....it was AWESOME by the way....and instead of doing college-y things like play beer pong and get arrested (ok, some of us did that too), we played Trivial Pursuit and went to bed.

4) I spend something like 9 hours a day either in class or studying. So much so that my friends think my study buddy has kidnapped me....he hasn't by the way....what? I can't hear you.....of course I wrote what you told me....yes sir....what ever you say sir!

3) Today as I was swimming (still loving it by the way), I was mentally going over the cohesive and adhesive properties of water and how the hydrogen bonding was responsible for the resistance in my stroke.

2) I got into a discussion last night about how the density of a loogie determines if it is possible to spit one out of the top of a moving jeep and it not hit you on the head. Ok so this sound like the conversation of a 12-yr old boy and not a nerd....I know, but it's the fact that we were using terms like "density" and "vectors" and "wind resistance".

and the best one.....

1) I TiVO Jeopardy! Every night as a study break, do I bust the Wii out and go to town, hell no....I have a standing date with Alex Trebek....that dapper, discerning, sexagenarian.....

Happy Birthday to Me!

I know that I have been missing lately! Sorry!

Here's a quick run down on my excuses....

1) I moved. (Really I could stop here, because wow, what a pain in the.....ok mom....in the tush.)

2) School started again. Classes include Chem lab....Chem 2.....Multi-variable Calculus.....and Biology......wait...I need a minute to cry now......

and

3) Last week was my 25th birthday!!!

What?

"That's only one day" you say?

Not the way I do it!!!! The weekend of the 24th, mom came up to help me move (which was really more, she bought me stuff for the apartment and Jared, Kayla, Pam and Jenny helped me move, but still.....) and we all went to dinner at The Cheesecake Factory for my birthday.

Then on the 30th (my actual birthday) I had a group of friends and family get together to celebrate with dinner at P.F. Chang's and drinks afterward.

ANYWAY....I am finally getting settled in a routine so I promise, that Chloe and I will be sharing our daily trials again VERY soon.....

P.S. One of my birthday presents was an awesome new digital camera....so now my eloquent (cough cough) words will visual aids!
