Grad School?

It's Sunday evening. I've been piddling around for a while. I've written (hand-written) one syllabus out. Rather than printing them, I decided I would just go ahead and write it into my notebook and be done with it. Go figure, I've only done one class and am I'm still waiting to do the other class.

I turned on E! and am watching the red carpet crap. Ryan Seacrest gives me the impression that he is actually in love with every person he has interviewed. I just don't know how that happens. I can understand how you could be sociable, but in love? Ridiculous. Hugh Laurie is adorable. o my.

Ouch

The entire left side of my mouth is asleep. I had 2 fillings taken care of. One of my previous dentists did a botched job and it needed repaired. Due to the size of my cheeks, I went ahead and rolled a cotton circle pad (usually use them to take off polish) and stuff it into my cheek to keep it out of my teeth since they're numb too.



I ran about 3/4 a mile in the rain. I had my ipod, so I called it quits.

Finally got enrolled. Thankful for Michelle who helped me out a lot. I have written mini-introductions for both classes and have completed the discussion board question for the week (hoping it's a 1 a week deal) for 5003.

Somedays, like today, I wish that Southern Belle hair would come back, like Steel Magnolias. That style is super easy to achieve and would work so well with my natural texture. Instead, I have to focus on taming my hair. In high school, I started getting wavy hair. Early in college, I was able to mouse it and pull the top back to maintain it. Now? It's to the point that I can put leave-in conditioner and smoothing cream in it and have a considerable amount of wave. Moussing is also an option, but it is always crunchy somewhere on my head. Seriously, Shelby had great hair that we ladies, and then men who want, could do with ease.
Maybe I exaggerate?

Enrolled

I have been dealing with trying to get enrolled for OU graduate classes. It's been stressful. If something could happen, it did, like usual. But, I'm past that, and am enrolled.
After looking at the two courses, I am self doubting and scared about what I'm going to try to do. I think I can do it, but I am nervous none-the-less.

I'm trying to tell myself that it's only 6 hours instead of 15 hours. They are a higher level, but still, I'm trying to be positive.

Dentist appointment mañana.

My Favorite Store

I absolutely adore Borders and everything to do with Borders. During college, I studied there at least once a week. I have my Borders Perks card and use it a lot too. Last year, I had $5 in Borders Bucks (or whatever they call it). I used that and my gift card from Blair for a cookbook and ended up paying only $2.17 for it. I love that cookbook. I buy cookbooks from Walden Books (branch of) or Borders. They have a really great bargain book section. I get emails every once in a while for the Borders Perks offers and have never browsed that website before. HOW HAVE I NOT?! I wish I would have browsed a few weeks later than today. I feel like I need to go check my Perks Page before shopping elsewhere now. I suppose in time I will be on that page more and more. I love Borders. I want to go have tea there right now, but instead, I will go swimming at my friend's apartment complex.

Also, I could listen to Mike Rowe all day. More on that later.

Little Sirius

My Pandora account thought it would be good to play a song from Puff the Magic Dragon. No. Actually it's not Pandora. Good try though.

I gave Sirius a bath, cute his toenails, and cleaned out his ears.


I love how curly his hair the day of a bath. It's completely dry, and needs Soul Glow.

Oops

I changed my Gmail account password and was unable to access my lovely blog.

Working towards my 5K goal! I started off with Couch Potato to 5K. I was doing fantastic. Week 3 to Week 4. good, but a work. then Week 6. I suffered. I am on Week 6.B. And decided to time myself and run to my own play list and hopefully I can get to where I need to be (which is 25 straight minutes) of running. Today, I ran 16:42 minutes. Ya, I feel like such a wiener, but I'm working on it.

Off to Edmond.
