final countdown

well guys...it's about that time. finals are next week so you know what that means--everything that i've procrastinated doing the whole semester will be done all in one night. maybe two. good thing i work really well under pressure (it's true, just look at my resume). in all seriousness though, i'm starting to realize how much work i have left to do and i'm kind of freaking out inside (i never freak out on the outside). the only good thing i have to look forward to is the fact that most of my teachers allow food "labs" during the last couple lecture days which means i get free food. one of my teachers is bringing subway next week for our whole class. and then in one of my other classes, my teacher is ordering texas roadhouse for everyone. okay no not really, but if it were true, i'm pretty positive my blog would get more hits. okay that's probably not true either actually. ha.

so my bracket is shot. lots of teams let me down. especially duke. i guess i should've known better than to pick them for my champion for both of my brackets. i didn't make any bets with anyone though, thank goodness. i would've been in so much trouble. baseball is gonna be another story though. pretty sure i'll have a bet going every week until the world series.

my brother, korben, gets home in less than a month! i cannot wait. when kieffer and i hang out, korben is all we talk about. we miss him a lot. i'm kinda bummed i won't get to hang out with him much though because i leave 2 days after he gets home. having both of my brothers home is such a great feeling. it really hasn't been the same without them around. no one makes me laugh like they do, and the day i find a guy who does make me laugh like them, i'm marrying him. ha ha. anyway, my point is, i really love my brothers and i've missed having them around so it feels really good knowing they'll be back again. i'm really proud of them, and i look up to them a lot. they're my best friends for sure.

blow away

i recently mentioned this pandora radio station i found that i really really love. i don't remember what it was, but i started downloading some songs that i really love from there. one of them was a song from a fine frenzy called "blow away". i watched the official video and can i just say that alison sudol is so freakin adorable? if you can't agree with me, watch this video and i promise that you will! her songs in her new album make me so happy! it's all i listen to these days.

super cute huh! not to mention she's got a suuuuper fantastic voice! she's fun. i like her. anyway, i'm getting paid to blog now (just like my lovely auntie) so when you click those ads you see on the sidebars and such, i get money. it's really simple, so read my funny posts and then click on the ads. and then click on the link to my aunt's blog and read her cute posts and click on her ads. it'll be worth your time i swear! :)

my bracket is still intact, thankfully, but i have two huge chunks missing with pittsburgh and kansas st. eliminated. it breaks my heart honestly. but duke is still in (who is my champion by the way) so thank goodness for that. i thought they were screwed today though. i would've had a meltdown if they lost.

i guess there are some tennis matches going on right now. i feel like i should be watching them, but i don't even know when they're on. i pride myself on knowing about sports though, and since i know so little about tennis (and hockey) i think i should start learning. i took tennis lessons a few summers ago. that was interesting. my coach was so legit and taught me really well, but i don't think i got it down. i might as well have had a baseball bat in my hands instead of a racket. that's how awful my serve was. but i have some super cute tennis outfits and a really awesome racket to show for it, so i'll at least look the part! (i know what you're thinking..."what a poser"...i know right? it's awful!) maybe i'll take a tennis class again. or i'll find a hot man to teach me instead. i like that idea better. plus i can wear my cute tennis skirts for him. :)

bracket challenge

i heard somewhere if you have a perfect bracket, you win like a million billion dollars from espn.

okay maybe not a million billion. but definitely a million i think. i think i would literally pee myself if i won a million dollars from filling out a piece of paper with a bunch of basketball teams. anyway, i am going to share my lack of knowledge about the NCAA teams with you and post my brackets. (i have two because i joined two different groups.)

let's hope i do well. not just for the sake of winning a million dollars, but for the sake of *not* looking like a fool. haha.
