Today, Barb is feeling: tired but happy

so i got my grades back for the semester...
i got a 3.0! YEAH baby!

i moved out of the apartment. it was alot, but i am glad to be out. my new place doesn't start until setpember 1st, so i have a while for having all my junk at the home.

i am looking for like 3 different jobs.
i have applied at a bunch of different ones and so i hope to find one and save up as much money as possible for Scotland.

i have more, but i am tired and so going to bed soon.....

Today, Barb is feeling: like i forgot something

so, i have been meaning to post for a while about what like to talk about best. movies and music.

first off Movies.
i want to see Van Helsing.
i saw the movie 30 Days until I'm Famous.
now, when i saw the premise of the movie, it looked like it could be good. but when i finally saw the movie. it was all fluff.
and the ending was crap.
the only good part was Patrick Thomas Flanery

next we have music
i love Modest Mouse.
where have they been all my life?

i heard the new britney spears song. something having to do with angels or wings or something. heaven help me, i liked it!
Today, Barb is feeling: feeling... feeling.... just feeling.


So if you ever feel bored and want to find an interesting blog, go here

http://tjsplace.blogspot.com/

it is a guy who is the manager at a Strip Club. now you would think, strip club, probably has lots of naked pictures and dirty stories, but the blog is surprisingly clean. granted there are mentions of the dancers, but mostly all in good taste.

i got a call from the mom today. she wanted to know where i was and if i was sober. she thought that it was possible that i have just been drinking since wednesday night since they hadn't heard from me and my blog hadn't changed. but alas, i was just busy working.
she also wanted to know about grades.
i told her that right now i have a 4.0
that is all A's.
and get this, i have 2 grades posted! that is right ladies and genltlemen, I, Barb, have 2 (count them 2) A's in one semester!!!!!

Today, Barb is feeling: rather rambunctious!

i am done with my finals.
i just got done with my accounting final.

i have checked my grades twice already in the hopes that one of my profs will have posted a grade for me. no such luck yet.

so most of you know that i am a democrat.
i also, with the help of my dad, printed stop bush shirts
most of you also know that my academic advisor is the college republicans advisor. so today i stopped by his office to tell him the good news about Scotland, and i was wearing my Stop Bush shirt. i had back to my bookbag and grabbed a notebook and held it up over my shirt so he couldn't see it.

iknow that sounds weird. but i didn't want to chance the going to Scotland.!!!!

Today, Barb is feeling: TIRED!!!!!!!

so i am tired.
i just got done printing up ALL the information for my speech that i give tomorrow. now the only part is going back and putting what i have into the order that i want to say it in.
it should be good, it is a persuasive speech about why minnesota should make SPAM the state meat.

i think it will be good. not only to give, but to listen to as well.
i try to come up with speeches that people will actually want to listen to. there are some speeches that people don' care about. i try to make them want to care.

so i have decided that in order for me to have a kick butt scotland experience, i need to aqusition a digital camera. i have been wanting one for a very long time, and i think that a semester in Scotland is a good enough, if not an even better reason to get one. now the only problem is getting a job so i can get money to pay for scotland and still have enough to pay for a semester here and rent (rent will not be hard since it will only be like 150 a month, and i make that in half a month, so i won't be totally broke all year long) but so i need to find a job. as of right now, the only thing that i have forsure, is dog sitting. and that is like, only definate 3 days at $35 a day. but i think i will be able to get a few more days out of the year, so that will be cool. tax free!!!!

so this summer i will be living at home, saving as much money as physically possible, and maybe having like 3 jobs.

money may not make you happy, but it will certainly take alot of pressure of your back!

so if anyone wants stuff from scotland, lemme know and i will send ya the bill!!!!!

p.s. if you didn't read my apr. 28th blog, i got accepted to the Wisconsin in Scotland program!!!
