will it ever stop raining?

For the past month it has been raining non stop. Saturday, for wittfest the weather was absolutely perfect and gorgeous. However, it was such a tease. April's showers have truely made it's meaning, but April is now over, so it can stop raining anytime. It's May and I have my uggs boots on. There is clearly something wrong with this. I remember my freshmen year I was laying out at the Chi Omega house towards the end of the year at this time. Instead, I'm getting rained and completely freezing when I step outside.
I shouldn't have my heat on at the end of the year. However, supposedly it's suppose to be nice next week. I will believe it when I see it and even if it is, that doesn't mean it won't return to nasty weather. Pools are suppose to be opening up at the end of this month, so hopefully the weather pans out and that's able to happen. The sun appears to be shinning through right now and hopefully it will continue to shine throughout the day. It makes me and everyone else in such a better mood!

the end has come

It seems that summer would never get here, but it has approached sooner than I thought. It's bittersweet because I'm extremely excited for it to begin, but I don't want this year to end either. I will be going home for the rest of the month of May and June, but then returning to Witt to take a summer class. I still have yet to find a job, which my parent's aren't happy about it, but hopefully I will be able to babysit someone. My orginal plan was to get an internship, but that clearly did not happen due to fact I wasn't able to get into all the classes I wanted (See scheduling blog for my bitching about that).
Next year is definitely going to be a lot different and I'm not quite sure I'm excited about it. A lot of my close friends will be graduated and it seems that a lot of the parties that have happened this year are held by seniors that are graduating, so lets see how the party scence. It's weird to say that I'm a senior and can't believe that time has flown by this fast. I still think I'm a freshman and can't imagine going into the real world so soon. I wish luck to all the seniors and hope they have a fantastic last couple of days of Witt. They will truely be missed!

my new favorite show

The Voice is an extremely great and talented show. It could be compared to American Idol, but in my opinion is much better and isn't as annoying. The singers that are able to sing in front of the judges (Blake, Adam, Cee Lo, and Christinia) are picked because they are very talented. The singers will sing to the four judges who have their backs to them and if they are interesting on putting them on their team and coaching them then they will turn their chairs. However, if more than one judge turns their chair around, then the singer gets the choice to pick who they want to work with.
It's only on it's second episode, but I am already attached. I have never been a big fan of American idol due to the fact a lot of untalented people go on it just to try to get famous, but when I hear someone who can really sing I get excited. I was told tonight that one of the singer's on the show (who is amazing, Javier) was at Wittenberg last year. I am very upset that I missed them because he took my breath away when he sang. I recommend this show to everyone who enjoys listening to people with good voices. Tune in on Tuesday nights at 9!

the royal wedding

The royal wedding seemed to be on everyone's minds on Friday. I planned on getting up at 5 am to watch the wedding, but when it came time to it I didn't, but instead recorded it. I know plenty of people that did indeed wake up just to see the wedding. In England, it was known as a holiday and didn't have to attend classes, which I believe should have happened as well.
Many people didn't like Kate's dress, but I thought it was absolutely beautiful. She did her own hair and makeup and still looked amazing. I think it was a good thing that the Royal Wedding and the NFL draft weren't at the same time because I believe many more people would have tuned into the wedding. More so people unwillingly. It was everything that it was hyped up to be and I'm very excited for the two!

blogs

I think the blogs have been a good idea, but it would have been better if we talked about them more. It's easy to forget to about doing the blogs when we don't talk about them for weeks. Also, I think it would have been better if we were given more ideas what to write about. A lot of the blogs are just about me bitching, but if we had to write about certain topics such as the note. I enjoyed when we had to go back and read blogs and rate the tops ones. It showed a lot of us were on the same page and agreed on what we thought were good blogs. They are interesting to read, but a little bit of a hassel since I haven't been caught up on them!
