Fates got a plan for us, even when our lives get rough

I don't handle stress very well...I'm getting better, but sometimes I completely fall apart. Luckily I have great friends that remind me I'm going to be okay.

This past weekend was great. Friday I went with the Student Communication Association to Dallas for the day. We met with the communication and marketing departments at Southwest Airlines, The Richardson Group (a PR agency) and Deloitte (an accounting and consulting firm). It was a very long day since we had to leave CS at 5:30 and well I couldn't go to sleep until like 2, but I had fun. I met with some really great people and learned alot. I had wanted to go to see Ragweed at Harry's, but we got back to CS around 8:30 and all I wanted to do was sleep.

Saturday I got to sleep in and that was really fun. Then I got up and cleaned my apartment because Dawn was coming to visit! She got to my apartment around 2, we hung out and talked, then got ready to go to dinner then to Huntsville. We got to the fox just in time to see Wade and he was fabulous as always. Then EYB came on around 9:30. It was a really fun show. All the boys were enjoying themselves and the crowd was great. There were a lot of people, but I didn't really have a problem at all. There was a little more screaming than I would have liked, but I guess I'm used to it. I only had 1 drink..well actually not even that much since Mike decided to drink some of it while he was on stage. Wade came on stage during Come Together to sing with Mike and that was really fun. After the show we stayed around for a little while and talked with the boys, then we drove back to CS. We were home pretty early and I was tired so I went to sleep.

Sunday Dawn and I went to lunch then she left to drive back. I went back home to study for the afternoon and decide what I was going to do. I had planned on going to Luling, but I was enjoying being home and relaxing so I had almost convinced myself to not go. Then I talked to Django and decided that I hadn't seen him in awhile so as long as i could get someone to go with me I was going to go. So I called Emily and she wanted to go. Well sometime in between getting ready and needing to leave I talked with Kayla and decided I wanted to go hang out with her and watch the KU game. So I called Emily, and she told me she wanted to go. So I decided I really wanted to go to and told Kayla I would have to pass. So we left to go to Luling and after a little adventure we got to the show around 6:30. Just in time to see everyone that I had wanted to. I am so glad I went, I needed some time away from studying and nothing better than acoustic music and friends that I don't get to see very often. Django was great as usual and the new stuff is wonderful. I have to say that my favorite though was Ryan James singing "Aint the fallin" He wrote the song with Mike and EYB has been playing it at shows for several months now. It is probably my new favorite. I had heard Ryan sing it one other time, but he was very drunk and completely forgot the words. This time was great. It was good to see Ryan Turner as well, I had not seen him in forever. The ending set was Matt Powell, Wade, Bleu and Cory and was a great way to end the night. Then Emily and I drove back to CS and I went to sleep.

The weekend was great, then today was not much fun. I woke up and needed to work on homework but didn't end up doing anything I needed to. So I went to work and thought hopefully it would be okay. Suzanne is gone for the week, so I figured it would be pretty quiet. The first few hours were alright and then Emily came to visit for a bit. Then I got a call from the lady I was suppose to intern with, and well long story short...I don't think its going to work out. Initially I was upset, but its okay for now, I don't really need to add another 15 hours to my week, so that will all work out. I've been waiting on a grad for my Comm theory class to decide if I needed to drop the class. Well I didn't do horrible, but I didn't do well. I'm still making a D (I have to make a C) but its still possible to bring it up. So after thinking about it I'm going to stay in the class and hope for the best. Other things made the day bad, but I guess everything happens for a reason. Hopefully the rest of the week is better. Tomorrow I have a test, wednesday I'm going to see Ryan James, Thursday night I'm going home, Friday I'm going to see Ryan James and EYB at House of Blues, Saturday I have to be back in CS for school, and then Sunday I'm thinking about Gruene with Envy. At least I have some good music planned...hopefully that will keep me sane.
