Presidential Matters!

We have a new president-elect . . . Barack Obama!!! This country couldn't have chosen a more qualified person to lead us out of the mess that his predecessor has left.

I have a new love - facebook! It's sooo addictive. After years of refusing to cave in to peer pressure, I finally joined because my friends would take pictures but they'd post them on FB. So the only way I was going to see them was to join. I did & haven't looked back. Writing on peoples' walls has become the highlight of my electronic day.

I tried to outsmart the system but the system outsmarted me. At the start of this semester, I needed 26 credits to graduate. So I devised a master plan . . . take 16 credits this semester & leave only 8 for an easy-breezy last semester (I get 2 credits for journal work). So I've been killing myself juggling a gazillion things for the past 3 months & then I was talking to a friend about my very smart plan. This was his response, "sounds like a great idea but I'm pretty sure the school requires us to be full-time students." WHAT?! Moral of this story, yours truly has to take 12 credits next semester so as to be a full-time student. They don't care that I'll be over my graduation requirements . . . noooo . . . "the rules are the rules." I'm still super salty over this whole situation. All that hustling & strategery for nothing.

Have a great weekend everyone!
