it's sunshiney wonderful, today



and that is the honest truth.

so, i've done some planning in my head as i drove, this morning.
as soon as school lets out i hope to take a train to california to get away for a week (or so.) if i don't bring this plan to fruition, i will instead take a road-trip to idaho to visit my friend melissa (if she'll have me.) the sunshine has inspired me, and since i've gotten my sunglasses out and have my "sommer lieben" playlist spinning in my car stereo, i feel the urge to get out and away for a holiday.

i had my second anthro exam this morning, and i feel i did well on it. then again, that's what i felt about our last exam. (so, we'll see.) my list of coursework is ever growing (copy-editing assignment due tomorrow, opinion piece due tomorrow, art gallery project due wednesday, and another art history exam is right around the corner.) i feel like i'm about to drown, but this week's load is nowhere near the amount of coursework i've had in a week in my past, i just am so completely checked out of school mentally that i want to shoot my assignments hard. >:( i did have the extreme pleasure of having my hatred of PLU validated and agreed with the other day when i visited a friend and fellow "lute." it was such a relief, i feel horrid (but not) to say.

the rest of the week, (and i dread to observe,) month, will be taken at a rather fast pace, it seems. the nice part about this week, though, is my early tue/thurs (time-waster) classes are going to be identical so i only have to go to one. i am ecstatic. since tomorrow morning is coffee/smoothies with jennifer and i have these random journ assignments due (and don't feel up to doing them now as i'm skipping out to go to linz's tonight, more later) i think i will skip tomorrow's.

re: ( . . . as i am skipping out to go to linz's tonight)
basically, that is all there is to it. i'm skipping out on doing my art/journ homework because i'm going to have a girl night with linz and melissa so we can eat nommy food, gorge ourselves on ice cream, and put together linz's save-the-dates. (: it's going to be spectacular.

a crazy girl in my class who thinks she's cool on her dell is looking at fmylife, i'm endlessly amused. it's weird to me to realize websites like fmylife, twitter and yt are websites that IRL people frequent as well as URL people. it also still gets to me that young children walk through my mall wearing 'fred' tshirts, leaving him playing up on ipod touches in the store, and the hot topic upstairs is where said children bought their tshirts to begin with.

considering i'm in art history right now, i figure i'd best go back to semi-paying attention, texting my boi, looking at train tickets, getting on skype/aim/msn, and daydreaming the class away. theatrical stage make-up presentation thing after with jayme; it's for soac week. if nothing else, i harbour excitement that PLU actually somewhat cares about their art programs and not all the focus is on sports, as it is basically everywhere else. woo-hoo, one good thing about this place of horridness.

thank you for all the prayers, i continue to hold all who responded to me with requests in my prayers as well. take heart, dear ones, the sun is coming out and God is on your side!

Life, is insanity.

Welcome to this, the newest installment of my life. (Well, the part I'm willing enough to tell you, the WWW audience that is.)

Our story begins "meanwhile, back at the ranch":
My life is just a silly silly right now, filled with finishing so many chapters in my life and looking eagerly forward to the penning of some very exciting new ones, I can't wait.

So as one saga ends, another one begins behind it.
The Pioneer, (the college paper for those of you not farmiliar,) has just closed production week on its final issue: Issue 16. It's a goodie. Chock full of articles that we toiled away at. Blood, tears, loss of sleep - the usual. ;] I don't know what else to say about the issue itself, it's really just another issue, albeit our final one as the "family" that we are. We don't officially have to be out of the office until the 15th, so we're all kind of chilling in there now, sharing stories, looking back on memories and sharing advice while laughing at all the silly times and mistakes we've all made.

The only two of us that are going to be here next year are Stefanie and I, and on the paper? We're not too sure. No one knows what the future holds you know. ;] All I do know is that I'm looking forward to next year very much. I've applied for Editor-In-Chief, Photo Editor, and A&E (just for the heck of it) so who knows where I'll end up! I'm just way excited to see what happens. There will be TONS of new oppourtunities for growth, learning, and expanding my comfort zone, it's going to be radical.

Summer.
Should I tell you how summer is going to be? Alright. Bike trip, sleep, website stuff, photography, writing, nothing. It is going to be so great. I was going to do the whole "summer job" thing but decided against it - I'll be babysitting a lot and would really just love to toil away my last "carefree" summer before the following year comes and university along with it. (No, I'm not sure as of yet where I want to go, ;])

Some things are changing in my family life right now, things that are very welcome as far as the category of change is concerned. I'd rather not disscuss my personal family goings-on here, in the middle of cyberspace. But if you know some, or would like to know more or whatever please feel free to drop me a line! (Phone, MySpace, Blogger, email, AIM, MSN, texting, etc.) I'd love to talk to you about anything and everything. =]

I suppose that's all this is here for: updating you all (and myself) on the small new changes and steps me and my life will be taking as the seasons turn the corners into summer. It's going to be a crazy ride, but it's going to be so great.

Remember: God is good, life is good, and always smile because you can.

Peace + LOVE,
Mallory
