We have many choices in life, one of them being to disappoint or to impress people.  When it comes to school though, I'm usually the student that goes beyond what is asked, but lately I'm getting worn out.

I'm the kind of person that doesn't like to disappoint, in most cases, but there are times in life where you have to choose who to let down in times of struggle, and that's really hard for me to realize.

Last night I spent forever working on my dress, making it completely from scratch, sewing everything together with my PFAFF machine that I'm lending from my aunt.  I showed up to class at the regular time and everything was perfect, my teacher spent individual time with me for probably an hour in the bathroom as we tweaked it to fit correctly... fyi the sheerness of the muslin made my striped granny panties easily seen. Even though working so hard on that was worth it in the end, I neglected my fashion history homework because the overload from everything else.

I went into my teacher/student conference shaky, whether it was from lack of sleep, nervousness, or caffeine, I don't know... but I bombed it.  There haven't been that many times in my life that I can honestly say that I wanted to disappear, but at that moment I wanted to soak into that hard cushion and never reveal myself.  Maybe seeing her tomorrow will be a different story.  I have to study my butt off for her extremely hard exam tonight but at the moment all I want to do is sleep.

I'm exhausted, worn out, and looking for the weekend which starts at approx. 6:20pm Wednesday... whatever it brings me.

Thank God for Easter break... but seriously, thank you lord.

The depressing weather is putting a damper on my exercise attitude.  I've been warming this leather lazy boy with my un-exercised booty for the past two hours now just because I'm unmotivated to move.  I've devoured the rest of my Cherry Garcia Fro-yo, and I need groceries.  It's one of those attitudes that you know what you have to do, but yet the idea of bumming around just seems oh so much better.

I haven't been on in a while mainly because I'm either busy or extremely bumming which means I don't even have the effort to write in this bad boy... so we found out today that our fashion show at the UICA isn't happening any longer.  Coming back to school after a week off for spring break makes you lazy, but with that news, I'm just a little mad/sad.  Good news though, we still get to have a fashion show, but it'll be at the school during the week instead of a museum on the weekend, not exactly what we had in mind, but it's something.

Speaking of spring break I probably had the best spring break I've ever had... sadly all the pictures from my trip to Baltimore lay on my sister's smart phone, so I shall be stealing those soon, but as we walked to the harbor, ate at both classy restaurants and the standard school cafeteria, I realized that I need my sister closer to my side.  I know I've missed her, but leaving her again at the airport just made it harder.  It was also cute being asked if we were twins riding the buses around the city as well.

During my time spent in "the Greatest City in America" I clung to my sisters' side in her office.  For four days straight I got up much much earlier than usual and lounged on my computer as she did her work, we even are starting up our Etsy store and I decided to make a logo for us.

Well, I think it's about time to get off this chair and actually get up and do some sort of yoga exercise and shower... then I have to chose my classes. WHOOHOO for waking up at 7am tomorrow to schedule classes online, basically an online battle.  

Gotta go read and do everything else, hope the weather isn't bumming all your moods as much as mine...
