Day 17- An Art Piece

This is a long post and lots of pictures...sorry in advance.
First I had midterms which have been okay so far. (note the so far) I have a chem exam on thursday that is going to be killer. Let's go back to the first test. The class average was a 41 (out of 100) and 15 people got 8 ( which is one question). Now you would think that this would make the professor think that maybe he should readjust his teaching method. no no no, not this professor. it's all our fault for not understanding. So needless to say I HAVE to do well on this next test.

Thursday night my friend and big in TBS came in town to hang out and go to the Maroon 5 and OneRepublic concert. I like Maroon 5 but have never been to one of their concerts. The tickets were on sale for $10 each so we figured why not. Here is where the crazy part comes in. We got to the ampatheater early so we walked around and looked at all the booths set up. We saw that MIX 102.9 (the radio station putting on the concert) had a bowl of candy so we walked over to get some and ended up signing up for a drawing they had. Then we went and sat in out seats to get ready for the concert. Before the first opening act came on some DJs from Mix came out and were giving away two front row tickets. So they came on and anounced Kinsley Richerson. As soon as I heard Kinsley i started cheering just to be funny, and make the people around us think we won. Then my friend (Kelsey Richerson) looked at me and said, " no for real i think they meant to say my name. I think i won!" So we go to the tent and it WAS HER THAT WON! So long story short, we got to sit in the front row and it was SO much fun and SUCH a good concert.




Friday, we hung out until kelsey's flight left. We went and played Putt-Putt which i hadn't played in FOREVER! It was so fun though we felt like little kids again. Then we heard how KISS FM was previewing the new Rocky Horror Glee Episode at the american airlines center, and giving out free t-shirts. So we decided to stop by, and college students looove free t shirts. It was so fun and I love being downtown. Its so much fun!



After I dropped Kelsey off at the airport I hurried home to see the Rangers game. And Im sure everyone knows by know ...but THE RANGERS ARE GOING TO THE WORLD SERIES!!!!!! I am absolutely ecstatic. I have followed this team all year long and it is so cool to finally see them get the recognition they deserve.

The rest of this weekend I have pretty much been lame and studied the whole time. Krystel went home this weekend so I had the whole apartment to myself which has been really weird.

Day 17-An Art Piece



There are art pieces all over the OU campus and this one has the best story so I thought I would share it. At night the eyes light up red so it looks possessed. The story is that the artist who made this was asked to make a bigger replica of it for someone else. And while he was making it, it fell on him and killed him.

Day 16- A Song That Makes You Cry

First and most importantly, I met with my advisor last thursday and if a couple of things fall in to place i should graduate NEXT FALL!!!! holy cow that is crazy to think, two more semesters. But it all depends on what classes they offer in the summer. If they don't offer a certain class I will have to wait until that next spring. Which in the grand scheme of things isn't that big of a deal, but I would love to have a semester off until grad school. I guess we will see how things work out.

Last night Krystel and I went to Buffalo Wild Wings to watch the Rangers game. It was so crazy. The place was packed and every single person there was watching the game. A bunch of people that work at the corporate offices for the Rangers were watching the game there too, and in between every inning they would make the whole restaurant do chants and stuff. It was so much fun. And the best part is THEY WON!!

This morning there was an earthquake in Oklahoma that was a 5.1 magnatude, which apparently is the same as when the nagasaki atomic bomb was dropped. This got me thinking just how amazing GOD is. Just when you think you have everything figured out, he throws something completely out of left field to remind you he is still in control. Just take a second to think about that.

Carrie Underwood- Temporary Home

This song makes me bawl everytime I hear it. It is so sad, yet so promising at the same time.


peace.

Day 14- A Non-Fictional Book

Its been a pretty busy, but fun weekend...

Friday I went to Rob's game against WEST and they killed them. It was a really good game and so exciting that they won their homecoming. At halftime I watched the band's show and it brought back so many memories. Their show was really modern, really exciting, and really good. It reminded me a lot of the show Chaos Theory my junior year. We all loved the show so much and you can definitely see that during the performance. It sounds so cheesy but I will never forget the feeling when we performed that show and got a standng ovation after. There is this rush that you feel when you start marching out to your opening set and every trouble spot starts running through your head. The drum major starts and the next 8 minutes seem like the blink of an eye. I definitely miss marching way more than i thought.

Saturday I went to the Rangers game. The games are so much more electric now that people know they are good and care about what they are doing. The playoffs start wednesday, so GOOOOO RANGERS!!!

Day 14- A Non Fictional Book

Chelsea Handler is by far the funniest late night talk show host on tv. She doesnt take herself seriously which makes her even funnier. I loved this book!
