I haven't been on Xanga in FOREVER. Apparently it got lonely and started sending me emails, so I figured I'd stop by and give it a little attention. I can't say I like the changes, I had to choose a theme...I really liked the background I had up here....oh well. And I don't know where anything is anymore....lol I'll figure it out. ;)

Soooo my life...well I'M ENGAGED since last December!!! And let me tell you, planning a wedding while taking 18 hours of classes = lots of work, but I'm enjoying the challenge. It got easier about 3 weeks ago when my boss let me go at work ha ha. That's a really long story of its own, but it comes down to a really bad deal for me, when I hadn't done anything wrong. The upside is that I've had more time to focus on classes, and the WEDDING which is AUGUST 2nd. And yes, I know caps is yelling, but picture it more as excited talking than yelling at ya. :P

Anywho, I'm such a facebook gal now, but I'll try to blog more often. It's good to break out of the "sum up my feelings right now into a one line status" every now and then. I do like reading my xanga subscriptions though, so kudos to everyone who stuck around. :D Have a great day ya'll :)

Just look it up in the dictionary, and I'm convinced you will find a picture of me. Smiling of couse, probably with books everywhere in the background, obliterating their conventional bookshelves and storage places to run rampant over everything. Books and I have always been friends, sure, but not until this afternoon was I thoroughly convinced of how attached I get to them...

My bookshelves are full. All of them. Even the ones that don't really fit in my room that I squeezed in to rid my room of stacks of books on the floor. So, being in a particularly energetic and "get rid of anything I don't absolutely need" state of mind, I got on Amazon.com's Marketplace, determined to trade some of this profusion for some cash. Only, everytime I grabbed an old history textbook to look up how much I could expect to recieve for it, it just didn't seem like enough. $5 for a perfectly good book (it just has about 90 pages of highlighting in it, i think i ran out of highlighter) that I could still learn more from? Who reads the entire book in a class, what are you missing out on in the rest of it? *sigh*

Even novels I've had forever, and read tens of times, I just can't seem to part with...can love of books be considered a disease? Cause I think I have it...

*looks around* Dude, I'm back on Xanga! Xanga is still the only place to come for try blogging...I've been rather enarmored with Facebook because of how fast and easy it is to reach friends, but I think it tends to make your brain shrink. You don't have to reflect, or have anything funny happen, or relate your life...at least its less likely to provoke such trains of thought. I still like it..but I won't neglect the Xanga world so badly again..my sincere apologies!! :)

Life has been mostly school and work, work and school...fun times sprinkled through...fairly normal. :)
