    Dear B'Wood Hs-

    Your stadium lights do not need to be on: a) during the day and b) when a game is not being played.
    Thanks,
    Concerned Citizen

    So you better treat her right (enh enh enh enh)
    I never update this shit anymore. Ok so the beach with Thomas and his family was wonderful. It only rained one day and not even very badly. It was gorgeous and we went swimming, I got tanner (but not tan), we ate fresh seafood, saw our grandmas and played a lot of Boggle. Since then I've started work interning at a law firm in town. Today was my fourth day. So far it's going pretty well... Everyone's been really nice and helpful and I feel so inferior to everyone who works there because everyone is ridiculously smart and I have no idea what I'm doing half the time. But other than that, yes, things are going quite well and I'm learning a lot. I've been really tired lately, though. I can't stay awake past 11:30. It's crazy, this is my first real 9-5 job. I've never worked a full day before. It's like being back in high school. We really are spoiled in college only having 3 hrs of class a day. I feel like such a grown up. I'm so not ready for the real world. I want to play forever. Ok well I think I'm going to go take a bath and read my book.

    Well, I'm headed to the beach until next sunday! Hopefully we'll have good weather even though it's predicting scatterd t-storms every day I'm there. But it also says that for nashville and lake forest, so I think weather.com doesn't really know what's happening and just predicted storms across the nation. SWEET. Ok well I'm not dressed/fully packed and I haven't eaten yet and am supposed to be at Thomas' in like 15 mins, so I'm gonna go. Bye!

    Arachnophobia
    So as I was leaving to take Thomas home tonight, I noticed I was kinda cold. I decided just to grab whatever jacket was in the basement since it was on the way out. Well, I noticed my mom's brown leather jacket and right as I was about to grab it to put it on, I noticed a giant spider the size of my palm chillin' out on the coat. I about passed out and screamed and ran upstairs to get my mom because the spider was clearly too big to be stepped on and Thomas and I had no idea what to do. So I get my mom who is in her nightgown with a breatherite strip on her nose but she refuses to come out in her nightgown with Thomas around. So she grabs a robe and I tell her (after about 5 minutes of my squealing and muttering incoherently) about the spider the size of my palm. She doesn't really think it's that big and kinda laughs at me. When she gets downstairs, however, she screams and about passes out. We took a picture. If it came out ok I'll try to post it later. Eventually we just ended up spraying raid at it until it died a slow painful death which I was upset about. I immediately thought of Charlotte's Web and was convinced I'd killed Charlotte. Nonetheless, I'm kinda glad Chars dead cuz if I saw her anywhere in the vicinity of my bedroom I'd probably keel over and die. So I am going to take a sleeping pill tonight because I don't think I'd sleep through the night peacefully without one. Yeah so I really will try to post picture later. No promises though.

    Ok so I had the strangest dream last night. I dreamt that I was living in England and my friend from Lake Forest, Sarah Cho, whom I haven't talked to in forever, was there too. We apparently were going to the same school there where we met prince william (whose first name was really Hayden...yeah too much star wars). Alright, well Sarah and P. Wills and I became super close and p wills would call me EVERY DAY to hang out. We would talk online when I wasn't over at the palace HAHA yeah and it was fun. It was weird too cuz I knew he had a crush on Sarah but I was kinda mad about it because I knew it would ruin the three of our friendships cuz we couldn't hang out anymore. Anyway, I was debating whether or not to tell my friends back home that I was close to P. Wills because I didn't want people to treat me differently or think I was lying or something. My mom found out because (apparently we had a house in london and I was living with her and it looked like my house in LF) p wills called early in the morning to say he'd pick me up for school or something. He had the SWEETEST sporty car, it looked like a porsch but it was something a little different in the dream and it was SO fun to ride in. Yeah, anyway...after a while I decided to tell Carter (yes Carter G.) that I was best friends with p wills because carter was in london and he thought it was cool but didn't make a big deal about it and I was glad. ANYWAY it was a really fun dream. I got to meet prince charles and he was kinda strict about things. Anyway, p. wills was so fun and nice and it was cool (don't worry, thomas, I was still dating you in the dream and I told p wills so we really were just friends). I was bummed when I woke up cuz I wouldn't get to ride in wills sweet ass ride and chill out in the palace anymore. Oh well! I think I'm gonna go to the gym now.

    Study, Bitch!
    Ok, so tomorrow I have my final two exams. I think they're utterly going to kill me. I don't think that I have studied enough but at the same time it's painful to study any more. I can't really see myself sleeping tonight. This is bad for a few reasons: #1 I have my first exam at 8:30, followed by the second at 12:30. #2 I have to pack up all my shit and be out of here by 12 on Thursday. #3 If I don't sleep, I WILL fail my exams and won't be able to pack. OK so yes...It sucks that these two finals are in my solid "A" classes. I think I'm just going to fail so that instead of my potential straight A's I get straight B's. Awesome. ARGH.

    In other news, I just bought 2 tops and a skirt from J-Crew and a necklace and a top from Banana Republic, online. YES! The things we do when we're stressed...

    Ok really good news, though. I don't start work until June 15th, which means I essentially have a month at home AND get to go to the beach with Thomas. Also, I'm only working until August 1st which means that I might get to go to the beach with my family before school starts. Also, I'm probably getting paid. AND not only am I interning at the #1 lawfirm in Nashville, but I also get to work on an actual pharmaceutical case! Yesssss! So excited. Get to buy cute business outfits. Will probably get fired...Blah.

    Now I'm really going to study and write about experimental greek archaeology in neolithic pottery and compare it to experimental archaeology of the Tireme and the social dynamics of ancient fabrics.

    Books
    Ok, so I plan to do a lot of reading this summer. This entails reading a lot of trashy, trashy beach books. I mean, I'm an English major. We need something light here and there. So, here's the list:

    Pledged (it's about the bad side of sororities, and before you go all omg- you-stupid-sorority-girl-what-has-happened-to-you on me, well, piss off)
    Confessions of a Shopaholic
    Bergdorf Blondes
    The Official Preppy Handbook
    Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
    The next Eragon book

    Yeah, some really vacuous pieces of shit on there, I know. But seriously I need a break!

    P.S. I'm not opposed to reading some really good intellectual books, send 'em over. I'll probably need them in between some of that crap. Although, I'll probably try to extend the next HP book out as long as I can...

    Haha!
    Oh my golley, you Lake Forest people should appreciate this! This is a Lake Forest girl's away message:

    "what i love about running on the beach is not all the mercedes but the rich people who park there every morning, proving they are not just rich, but in love with nature, in love with life."

    Ahhhh hahaha omg I just thought it was TOO too funny.

    Anyway, I'm off the the KKG end of the year bbq. It's SUCH a lovely day out!

    I can't believe it's the end of the year! It feels like it just started...At the same time, I have so much on my plate right now that I'm worried about finishing everything before I can get out of here. Unfortunately I have two finals on the last day. I'm really looking forward to summer, though. I have lots of stuff planned (working out, lying by the pool, reading, interning, some travel hopefully, seeing friends, etc.). I really want to take it easy this summer and do the things I always said I would (work out every day...). I'll definitely miss the ATL, but Nashville still feels very comfortable to me. So who's going to be home this summer and when (even Lake Forest/Chicago people because I might be going up there at some point)? Please let me know, even if I've already talked to you because I forget...

    In other news, who wants to write one of my English papers??

    Love,
    Jessica

    Happy
    There needs to be more happy entries in this journal. Maybe I'll reformat it so it's not so black and scary. Funny thing is about decorating your own lj...no one looks at it but you. I mean, seriously! You just read your friends page and decorate it however you want. Sigh. Ok well I'm happy. My boyfriend is great, my grades are good, I love my school, I love my friends, I love my sorority, I am just happy. This means things are going to go to Hell, but let's pretend for a while that everything is good. Yay! Happy! YAY!

    Boring Entry
    This entry is more for me than anyone else. Not meant to entertain, but read if you wish. It's just me bitching about shite.

    My schedule is really stressing me out right now. I have to take two semesters of language, 2 semesters of P.E. (yes, Emory requires PE), a math and a science before I graduate. All of this in addition to: 2 semesters of American lit, 3 semesters of brit lit, and 2 3-400 level English courses.

    Average Emory course load, 16 hrs/semester
    Emory course credits:4
    Semesters left: 4
    So I need 46 credits in four semesters (62 if counting stuff for my potential classics minor)
    16*4 = 64

    Ok, so this can be done. Problems: lots and lots of English, which could be cool but it will be a LOT of writing...I suck at math and think math might ruin me. Also need four classics courses (16 hrs) for my classical civilization minor which I'm seriously considering.

    Next semester
    English (medieval drama--does that count as brit lit?) at least a 300 knocked off
    P.E. Begginer's Tennis (this will be fun)
    Math (to be decided, will potentially ruin my semester gpa)
    200 level classics course
    american lit of some kind
    = 17 credit hours

    So, after next semester that would leave me with: 1 PE, 1 Science, 1 Am. lit, maybe only 2 brit lits, 3 classics and (depending on brit lit credit) 1 300 level english.
    Ok, so it's doable with 7 credit hrs to spare!

    I feel a little better now. Not physically so much, though. I've missed four classes this week due to whatever it is I have, which even after going to the doctor and being put on inhalers and steriods etc., I still don't quite understand. Something about having something between bronchitis and asthema. Too bad my inhaler medicine makes my stomach sick. SO FUN! I'm going to take some Nyquil and pass out.

    Public Service Announcement
    A lot is two words. Alot does not exist and it makes me cringe when people write it. Don't be stupid. Learn it.

    Definitely is spelt like that, not definetly, definitily, or any other variation. This isn't as bad as "alot" but, still. De-Finite-Ly. Thanks.

    Finally, don't write "wut" instead of "what" when you're talking to me on aim. You look like an idiot.


    Love,
    Jessica

    Where has all my motivation gone?

    P.S. No one updates their journal anymore, so I have nothing to read during procrastination time.

    I really need to remember to take more pictures, but first I have to remember get batteries for my camera that decided to die on itself after very little use. Excellent.

    I don't update anymore. It's weird. I dunno...Life is going really well right now. I'm pretty happy--grades are good, social life is good, boyfriend is good. You know this only means that it's about to go to Hell in a handbasket just about any day now. Always works out that way...I'm SO optimistic.

    I was really sick yesterday and I threw up again today but have felt so much better since then. I guess there was just some nasty bacteria chillin' out in my stomach and I just had to suffer until I could force it all out. I hope I really am better because I don't have time to be sick. Three papers due by friday and a midterm.

    I can't wait for Saturday!

    It's a tragedy when people with terrible music taste get ahold of a song you really like. It makes you feel so wrong listening to it.
