Blockbuster

So i have witnessed how some boys don't react well to breakups. and it all came down to a blockbuster movie.

Backstory:
Friday night i broke up with justin for a slew of reasons, but it was a very light hearted mutual breakup, no bitter feelings, so i had thought....

So saturday i realized we rented a movie the weekend before under my account and it was still at his house.... so i send a friendly text msg asking him to return it for me, and i run into him that night and he tells me he returned it that afternoon....lovely.

yesterday i receive a call from blockbuster inquiring a 5 day overdue movie! They also call my dad and go into how i will be reported to the credit collections or whatever if i do not pay the fine immediatley (it has been 5 days, SHEESH blockbuster!).

so i call justin and his phone is off...for 2 days his phone was off everytime i call. i call blockbuster to double check b/c i thought it had been returned, they said it wasnt there. i go to his house to get the movie and he is home and doesn't answer.... very mature i thought..

i return today and his roommate is home and luckily he likes me and gives the movie to me, which at that point made my day.

So i learned my lessons; I am now single which was the right choice and thats been revealed multiple times since the breakup, and i am now a current movie renter from Hollywood video where they do NOT report you. :) hope you all can learn from my mistakes as well! hehe :)

B.O.R.E.D.

BORED. BORED. BORED. i am working at bath junkie and sad to say, no one has come in pretty much all day, and i am working by myself. UGHHHH. and i think i am really sick. i was sick before i came back to school (right around new years) and i am STILL sick. and it got a little better for a week there, and now its getting worse. and i tried to make an appt at the school doctor but they don't have any till monday. but judging from this long streaked sickness, i'm sure i'll still need one.

i've been in a pranking mood lately. my roommate ashley and i pranked on our other roommate channing. chan works at bath junkie too so ashley and i called up asking for a manager complaining about the service we'de had last wednesday (channing works every wednesday) except ashley sucks at not laughing so we got busted. still pretty funny tho. then we prank called ashley's mom (she's a teacher) complaining about how she was abusive to ashley's make believe kid....that wasn't such a good idea after all (she ended up hanging up)

its so weird how the weather works in lubbock, its snowing on the SOUTH side of town, but not the north....and the town's not the big. i live on the north (thank goodness) but im sure it'll be snowing by tomorrow (EKKK!)

18 more minutes until freedom! except i'll have to fun to my car in the freezing cold (bath junkie is on the south side of town). and then wait for my car to warm up, and then run from my car to my apartment, but THEN i will be comfy and warm :)

ok well this is long enough, but i'll end with a question, what's everyone doing for spring break?? and when is everyone's? ours is different from most people's, its like the 14th through the 24th.....

Call Me Irresponsible

I'm not really irresponsible, im just listening to the michael buble cd and that just came on :)

so i went to the study abroad office last week and i am now officially studying abroad in NORWAY!! i am very excited!! And kind of stressed, i am going to need to work a LOT this semester to save money for traveling and all. and i am thinking i should get another job because i make a little over 6 an hour at bathjunkie and i don't see how that will work! im thinking maybe waitressing, but i am a little afraid since i have never done it before!

So today is MLK Day, so my roommates made a dinner in honor of that :) this included a bucket of KFC chicken, koolaid, corn bread, green beans with bacon, and peach cobler, along with a fitting cd playing in the background. it was really cute. and Yummy!

And Tomorrow i am singing at a thing called TAB after hours (Tech Activity Board). A little nervous, i don't ever sing out in lbk besides once before and not a lot of my friends out here know that i like too, so its always kinda weird to bring it up when they don't really know. But i think it will be a lot of fun.

I know this blog is all over the place but today i talked to my little brother right before he left for boot camp. He doesn't come back until April 18th. And yesterday i spoke with Kyle (my older brother) before he left for Dubai, that was the hardest because he is moving there and it's indefinate when he will come back. I was supposed to go home this past weekend to say goodbye but it didn't work out so i was really bummed. I called my mom saturday night and the whole family was out to eat at esparzas and then they watched a movie. i so badly wanted to be there. Because i was planning on going home i didn't really get to have a goodbye with my brothers because we were counting on doing it then. Very dissappointing. But who knows, maybe i will be able to connect with Kyle over the summer when i am in norway.

On another random note, i have been thinking, and i am looking at maybe living in NYC after i get back from norway, it will be a month before classes start and i thought that would be fun because my connecting flight is through NYC so i could just stay there and then fly back home after the end of the summer. Just i little thought i'm playing with. If anyone is interested in sharing an apt with me for the month let me know :) its not a done deal obviously, but its always more fun with more friends :)

Anywho, I am going to call it a night. I hope everyone is doing well and i miss all of you guys sooo much. i hope to make a trip home soon in the near future :)

I miss LULU!!

geez ok im sorry for taking so long to write in this! so lets see, to fill you in on the new year, i've been back at tech for about a week or so, i cut my hair!!! (pictures next post), my boss decided not to sell bath junkie (YAYYYYYY!), my brothers leave for the marines and Dubai this weekend (eek!) and new years eve went well with justin coming in town, and classes are very fun so far! but i miss everyone from home! i got spoiled over the break because most of us didn't go on any trips so we hung out alllll the time!! and i was going to go home this weekend to say goodbye to my brothers, but i can't now (long silly story).

BUT, since i'm not going home anymore...i'm going to houston this weekend instead. Justin found a dog online that he is going to buy and its in houston, which is also where he is from...so he asked me to fly with him home and get it this weekend... (EEKKKK!) i'm excited/nervous/giddy just like the last time i wrote in here haha. i'm a little nervous about meeting his family! i hope it goes well.

and on a different subject, my roommate celeste got an xbox from her friend gabe for christmas and we've been playing it ALLLLLL week! i am officially the champion in the apartment for MORTAL COMBAT, i even beat all of their boyfriends, i felt pretty happy! but they're convinced the other controller was just lower on battery b/c that would be crazy (so they say, they're just trying to ruin my fun!).

But i hope everyone's classes going well and nancy i miss your tea room accompaniment! i should have bought your cd before i came back, shame on me!

oh, heres a picture of justin and i from new years so you guys can put a face with a name:
