Soundtrack

Saw this and I just want to keep doing it over and over:

If your life was a movie, what would the soundtrack be?
So, here's how it works:
1. Open your library
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool...

Ok, not gonna lie. I cheated a little. But I'm not going to tell you where. How fun is that?! I like it.

Tomorrow is my last day of internship. I feel nervous because good bye...I just hate it. I really hope I can somehow get across how thankful I am for the experiences I had and people I met there.

There are a lot of quirky stories I didn't have time to type up and I'm sad about that. I guess it's not that bad to be busy living. But there is a certain need for reflection.

I just was overcome with the Lord's love for a second. It is really big, y'all.

I said y'all in honor of me being in Texas in a week. In fact, you know what else? Yee haw! That's right, folks. Hm, one more...djeat? I heard someone today say "did you eat yet?" Sorry, it's djeat.

Hopefully I will fight with my boyfriend one day so that I scream, "Where's the love? It's not enough!!!!" I can't wait for that.

Also can't wait to pull out my rusty hands and play some piano.

Well, I'm tired, busy, important and all that. Bye!

30 Rock

Yesterday was Conan. We saw Tom Brokaw, Ed Burns, and Sarah McLachlan...and of course Conan. What a funny/professional guy. I like him. Afterwards I walked around Rockafellar Plaza, checked out the tree and all...

Now here is something exciting: next week pick up the new US Weekly and see my contribution. I am one of the "We polled 100 people in Rockafellar Plaza and..." people. I'm one of the 100. She asked us if we thought certain actors looked like the real people in the roles they were portraying.

I also scalped some dance tickets last night with Caleb and Samantha. We made $30 a piece. So we ordered Papa Johns and made brownies and cheesey bread. It was nice to have non NY style pizza for the first time in months.

Ok that's about it. Bye!

The end is near.

My Thanksgiving friends are all gone. Laura, Lauren and Chelsea all came up to join me in the likes of the parade, Serendipity, shopping, and Beauty and the Beast on Broadway. Somewhere in there, I assume it was the seven hours standing in the freezing cold rain during the parade, I got a little yucky feeling. It held off for a while, but Chelsea left this morning around 5AM and after walking her out to a cab and jogging back to my bed, I think it all hit me. I stayed up for a little bit since I felt so gross, and watched a movie until I fell back asleep. I finally "got up" (actually only woke up, I've probably left my bed for a total of five minutes) around 4. Made the mistake of eating granola bars, pie, and a cupcake...no hopes for a speedy recovery but it's all I had in the room and I had to eat something...

Anyway it's almost 11PM now and feels much earlier. I've got homework to do and a full week of work ahead. I haven't stayed in one city this long since high school. I love it, but I'm ready for home. I'm sick, I'm poor, I'm tired...it's just time to gain some energy back.

Still, I am thankful to be here. And so thankful for the week of non-stop laughing I just had. For that, I can handle a little cold.
