OMG. Sooo weird. I was in church (funny, I know) and members of the congregation were randomly debating metal or something on, like, a HUGE xylophone.

And I told her that college wasn't easy and that she was going to hate it. Then, all of a sudden, we were walking into Jon Thomas' class back at Surry and she didn't know how to get into the room (because the room was actually the Grotto in the HSU at UNC Asheville) and I told her the side door. Once we walked in I saw the chalk board from chorus in high school (it had the lines of music on it) and Thomas. And I RAN to him and gave him a big hug and we discussed how much we missed the old days when I was there (or something) and that now my mom was there and I was really annoyed.

I don't understand how people who hold a Ph.D can speak using incorrect grammar and cannot understand that students need more than 24 hours to put together a presentation for a project that lasted for 16 weeks.


Errrrr. I'll feel SO much better when my internship is over!

Also...

HAPPY BASTILLE DAY!! VIVA LA FRANCE!!!

Annnnnnnnnnnnnnd the sixth, and my personal favorite, HARRY POTTER COMES OUT TONIGHT!!!!!!

I promise, loyal reader(s?), when I finally get this internship project and presentation together, I will be posting more.

I know I never put up my grandmaster grad school plan from over a year ago...but that's because it's changed!! I'm calling it GMGradschool2.0.

One more thing:

I'm trying to write some on this draft due tomorrow, and I youtubed (yeah, I did just make that a verb) "forgotten songs" and I'm listening to awesome songs...and they change every 30 seconds...My A.D.D. loves me right now.

The quote that sums up my life at this exact moment:

"This is how it works, you're young until you're not, you live until you're done, you try until you can't, you laugh until you cry, you cry until you laugh, and everyone must breathe until their dying breath...But this is how it works, you peer inside yourself, you take the things you like, and try to love the things you took, and then u take that love you made and stick it into some, someone else's heart, pumping someone else's blood, and walking arm in arm, you hope it won't get harmed, but even if it does, you'd just do it all again..."

--Regina Spektor, On the Radio.

I've said this about a million times, but I don't know if I ever said it on my blog..

The questions of where you were when Columbine, 9/11, and the day that Michael Jackson died are my generation's markers.

As I sit here listening to Pink Floyd's "Time" and pondering what is to come, a wave of sadness hits me like a brick wall. And I realize. I am an adult. And these generational markers are occurring in my time.

I know where my mother was when Elvis died (she was at marching bad practice at Mount Airy High School on the football field, and it was announced on the intercom) and now...I will tell my nieces and nephews of the tragedies that occurred before they were born, too.

My parents' generation has the "Where were you when Kennedy was shot" question.

I am only 21, and I already have a lot of generational markers/tragedies.

Does life/existence grow exponentially?

(I really want to use the word "half-life" here...but I don't think it's the right way to explain this new theory)

This week has been kind of crazy. Jon and Kate are getting divorced and Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, and Michael Jackson all died. E! News has been ridiculously busy.

(OK, so, I took a 3 hour break writing this post and I got cheered up, so it didn't end up as serious as I was originally intending. But I really hope you understand what I'm trying to say. If not, I will get back to this eventually.)

For now, one of my favorite Michael Jackson songs:

The warm weather has officially hit the mountains of North Carolina.

For some reason, I thought it would take at least two more weeks to arrive (until July) but no, it is HOT.

I'm smack-dab in the middle of my internship.

I say this EVERY summer and I always wish I hadn't later...but I want September!

I want classes this summer to be over with, I'm ready to see if my GPA has gotten ANY better, I'm ready to RAness to start again, I'm ready for AXiD Chapter meetings, I'm ready for my fall classes. I want my routine.

I started this because I thought it would be a long post...and now I have nothing to say..

I'm going to sleep with an ice pack and hope that the air decides to come on tonight.
