stress and other junk

hey all.
so the end of my first year of college is coming up in a week. i'm starting to feel the pressure. I have a 2 page paper to do and one more asssignement to do for music, one more assignment and a 2 page paper for child abuse, a 5 page research paper to do and a journal on every story we read and every poem for english, 10 more 65 word essays for psychology and a final test, and finally a test and a prison project to do for my correctional administrations class. Thats alot of stuff to do in a week and a half. its crazy! lol

But what bugs me the most about all of this work, is that i'm supposed to have a partner for the prison project. We have to design the prison layout and the kinds of programs it will have like a vocatinoal training and a GED program. we have to draw out the plans. and for the programs we have to look up 2 articles for every program we choose. thats alot of work for one person. so Mrs. Kupperman is letting us get into groups. but i really dont talk to people in that class. so i didnt have a partner so she had me work with a guy who didnt have one. that was all fine and dandy. but he wasnt in class all week this week. and i dont have his number. just an email that he may or may not check. so when i brought up his not being in class and that i dont have his number, she told me to just do it by myself since we are all getting graded indavidually. so now i am partnerless cause this jerk decided to skip or w.e.

but the good news is.....i have some of the best friends in the world. my freind julia wants to be an architect so she is coming over to help me make the layout for the prison. and my friend veronica offered to help me with the research. so i have a feeling i'm gonna do pretty damn awesome on this thing. but the problem with all this is that julia is still only a senior in highschool and veronica doesnt go to ccbc. so i'm hoping Kupperman doesnt mind.

other problems besides my too many projects is that my email for ccbc hasnt been working. apperantly my email password expired so i havent been able to get on to my email in a week. so i havent been able to turn in the assignments for music and child abuse for this past week. but i got it working. and all the other assignments i missed i can turn in too. so i'm pretty happy now that i called the guy. but what a pain in the butt is that?! the password shouldnt expire. that screws everybody up. but things are ok now.

i got signed up for my extra math class. which is good. i wont be overloaded with classes next fall. actually i might be just because i want less classes in the spring so i can focus on the interneship i can get. i'm hoping i can get that. that would be perfect. i can get some good references from that and from Phi Thetta Kappa (aka PTK and honor society for 2 year colleges) when i apply for a real job.

jeez. i think i really need a vacation during the summer lol. so much junk and what not right now its crazy.

josh is almost done with classes too! he comes home next friday! but whats even kooler is that i get to go up to see himn thursday and help bring him home on friday! i'm so excited to see the campus and meet his roommate. hopefully some more of his friends are up there so i can meet them too. but i'm like over the moon excited. lol.

in other news....i dont have any

wish me luck getting my stuff done. i'm gonna need it lol

nothing major

'Ello Guv. So nothing really interesting to talk about. Umm. Josh got home for spring break last month. He had to leave the day before my spring break. go figure right? after he left it was going to be 5 weeks of not seeing him. But he forgot that he had called off a weekend back in January. So he got to come home last weekend. It was nice to see him. we hung out as much as possible. but since i didnt find out about him coming home till 2 days before i couldnt call off work. so i had to work 8 hours on the saturday he was here. But he left and now we only have a week before Easter and then 2 weeks before class is done for the summer for him. so i'm REALLY excited.

Classes have been pretty good so far. Almost done. I get done a week after josh gets home i think. I'm doing pretty decent too. doing all my assignments and what not lol. but i'm telling you, english class....it sux! lol.

work is good too. i'm getting the same hours at my new job as my old one. so its really nice. i just have a smaller work load. and an almost set schedule. so i'm really happy about that.

so josh and i also set an official date for our wedding. we are getting married october 6th 2012! i'm so exited. my friends are also really excited for me. So much so that when my friend mercedes and i went prom dress shopping for her at david's bridal (its not just bridal gowns), she got the attendants to let me try on 3 dresses. 2 of them were olgi cassinni gowns. and one was someone else. the first was the other designer. it was a princess ball gown type. it was strapless and had layers and layers of tulle. it was very pretty. and the type of dress i wanted. then i tried on the 1st olgi cassinni gown. it was strapless also. and was bunched. it was very pretty. but not exactly the kind of dress i like. The last was my favorite. it was an ivory dress with a sweetheart neckline. it was a corset back. it was georgeous. it wasnt poofy like i wanted but it wasnt straight down either. it had roses embroidered on it in a shade lighter than the gown. and the material was so soft. it was amazing! loved it right off the bat. it was the one i chose to try on. mercedes wanted me to try on the other 2. and i love this one. and it being ivory might go well with my fall colors and just look better. so i'm really excited. even tho the wedding is almost 4 years away.

my dad is having a caniption about this whole wedding deal. he told me at one point he wasnt helping pay for it. which kinda hurt. but it turned out he was just angry for telling him abougt the dresses. so mom flipped out on him yesterday. he doesnt get how excited i am about getting married to the man i love. all he ever sees is the dollar signs. and about 1 year after i get married he has sean's first year of college to pay for. but i wonder if he is thinking he is paying for the whole wedding. and if thats the case he is way wrong. josh and i really want to pay for our wedding mostly by ourselves. we know we cant do it ourselves. but when he said he wasnt going to help at all i like got really pissed off. he can be such an asshole. and when he knows he is being an asshole the only was he can appologize is by buying me things or giving me money. it kinda sux not to have an actual appollogy from him. but whatever. its just so hard to deal with him when we are just too alike. i hope i never treat people the way he treats people. i dont want to be like him. and i'm scared about that. but i have alot of my mom in me that i think its enough to offset him. we'll see.

umm...other than all this junk nothing much is happening. boyfriend overloading himself. brothers are either being a little brat or getting detention for being too wild (which isnt like him) or parental drama. the usual.
