"Everything's Going So Well"

My second time quoting Moulin Rouge in this blog. That movie is just so quotable. BUT that has nothing to do with what I'M talking, err blogging about...

So my post yesterday was done sitting in the Newport, KY Hooters, before going to see a fantastic band, Deer Tick, play for free in celebration of St. Patrick's Day. It was cold and rainy all day AND I wore a dress, but I wasn't even cold for the hour the we stood outside in the middle of Cincinnati. It was just the magic of the day I suppose. Oh, and another cool thing I forgot to mention was that I got a Darth Vadar(Safari says Darth and Vadar arn't words, which is really heartbreaking) keychain! It was the toy in a McDonalds(also not a word) Happy Meal.

But I'm more focused on the now. Right now it's late, late enough that everyone in the house is asleep, including the cats (who are sleeping on my feet next to each other, soo cute ^_^). For a while Adam and Ryan were snoring in sync which was kinda cool, but does not keep me entertained for long. You see I'm bored, and there isn't much I can do about it. I think all I really can do is catch up on Lost on Hulu(also not recognized by Safari, stupid Safari) and wish I had gone to Mom's to do laundry tonight. I'll get all that done tomorrow though, in preparation for starting my job on Tuesday. Yes, yes, calm down you cheering masses of people rooting for me, I know this is the turning point in the film that happens right before an upbeat song starts in and clips of how things are going so well roll without dialogue, also representing the passing of time.

I'm a fan of this happening as well. River just got her job at Pizza Hut (funny we're both working at pizza places) and hopefully within the next few months we can start looking for places to live. Then we can watch movies, play Little Big Planet, and discuss issues way over our maturity level non stop. Sounds good to me.

BTW here is my favorite Deer Tick song.

So I just wanna give an update because I'm currently having THE BEST DAY of my year so far. I got a job last night, and then Eric and I talked on FB and I got to go to a free concert, to see Deer Tick. Tonight I'll stay with him and Chip and we'll just have fun all night. Oh and right now we're on a Hooters boat in Kentucky where you're still allowed to smoke! There is even a trampoline here! You could smoke while jumping on a trampoline and eat wings and seeing big hooter's boobies! Yea, I'd say today is good.

Changing Winds Come Whipping Through

I know in my previous post I expressed the desire to be a social worker, but I just found this college and and and....... I'm speechless. Really. It just seems too good to be true.

I looked into admissions and I don't see any reason I shouldn't get in, and a personal interview is a part of the application process. That would be perfect because I could show them that this place seems so perfect for me!

It's in Iowa, which is fine with me, I've been looking to get away, and Iowa is a hell of a lot closer than Oregon. They offer an education program that I'm really interested in, and the university itself is so enviromentally and socially concious, I just love it...

And you know how I found it? I click a random Facebook ad! I've been seeing ads for this place for a while around FB, but I just ignored them. I mean, who cares about FB ads. BUT I decided why not check it out...and oh man I just am overwhelmed with the place. Below is a link...
