Beginning of the End & New Beginnings

It is officially the beginning of the end of my last semester as an undergraduate student at UWEC! I am super excited for this year, 2010, as many exciting things are going to be happening in my life and the lives of those around me. I know many others who will be getting married throughout the year, a few others who are also having children this year, and then of course all my exciting stuff that will be happening as well (including GRADUATION!).

My short term goals would be completing the semester with a little bit of grace, if that's at all possible to do @ 9 months pregnant. Having the baby problem free and healthy is another one that I would like :P Also, concentrating more on my free-lance portrait photography and getting the equipment I need in order to pick that up some more.

Long term goals are to find a grad-school with a graphic design degree, get a scholarship or internship or teaching assistant funding of some sort to help pay my way through that schooling, then possibly (after getting my MFA) teach graphic design at the college level...

Tons of possibilities await me, just organizing and finding them are the key! I shall try to keep regular updates this semester as I'm sure I'll want to vent/share whats going on. Also, on a side-note, Jordan and I are considering a possible move BEFORE the baby is born as we desperately need our own washer/dryer!

Until next time... Live long and prosper (I watched Star Trek the other day).

It Doesn't Feel Like Spring

I thought I would update briefly as I am just sitting in my classroom waiting for class to start.

Nothing really new is going on with me, just getting ready to move into the new apartment in about 2 weeks. I've been packing little by little but I will still have a lot to get done on the actual move day, so I'm hoping everything will go smoothly. River wanted to paint the living room a different color, as it was a banana yellow (eek). He and I went to Menards, he picked out the color and we have been painting when we can for about a week... we're almost done and it looks much better!

Mr. Teeg is getting into what seems his teen-age years, as he is completely and utterly annoying, though every once and awhile will have his sweet moments... I'm hoping he grows out of that :P

Well I'm off to participate in critique and discussion in class, so until next time!

Kitty Dilema & more

Well, my kitten (almost cat i guess) Teeg has peed on my down comforter yet AGAIN! I am very frustrated with the whole thing. The last two times I just took the comforter to the dry cleaners, but this time (because of the face that I do not own a money tree) I machine washed it.... so here's hoping *crosses fingers*


Here's the little bugger :P

Fun night with some gals from work where we watched "Wall-E". Cutest movie ever! Its always nice to get to know some of the girls outside of work in a less-stressful environment. Half of the regular gals are done at the end of the spring semester.... which sucks...

River and I will be starting to look at apartments soon, with a few in mind already. I almost just want this spring semester to be over with so we can just live together already, though I will definitely miss Keels and the Amsters. I just keep getting this ache in my heart every moment that we're apart (which sounds totally corny!) and every day it seems to grow more and more... I basically have to not think about it at all for me to get through each day, but with apartment hunting coming up that will be impossible. I know River is getting frustrated with me as I am always asking him to sleep-over, but I can't help it... *sigh*

I feel I've become an emotional mess!
