Good friends just dont let you choose dumb running mates!

I know, I know. its been 7 months since i wrote on this thing but i figured now that I'm back and school and everything is sorta starting to fall into place and i have a regular schedule again, i would write on this thing. and with all of the big to-do going on in the news these days, i figured i should get my two-cents in this busy blogging world. so here it goes. a quick, little "catch-up" if you will:

1. I'm back at TCU for my sophomore year (my third semester as a Speech-Language Pathology major)
2. I have a new dorm (pictures to come)--i just got my bedding in the mail today and it is in the washing machine as we speak. so, as soon as its done, ill put it on and take some pictures!
3. I have 3 other roommates. I know that is an odd thing to have while still living on campus in dorms but you know TCU (well you may not but..), always ahead of the curve. I live in a room with my old roommate from last year, a girl that lived across the hall from us last year, and another girl who is new to the mix. We all have our own bedrooms with FULL SIZE beds (no more awkward twin beds for this college girl!), where we share two bathrooms and a living room. This building is so great. i mean they clean the bathrooms once a week for us, for goodness sake. could it get any better?!
4. I made it through my first summer back at home since going to college. You know how when you graduate from high school and they say all that about how you better live it up that summer because you are going to lose friends from high school and things will never be the same? bullshit. i was closer with my friends and family this summer than i EVER have been. high five summer '08!
5. Barack is still the shit.
6. rainboots still kick ass.
7. all of my favorite shows are back this week! well not all of them, but a good portion.
8. Jon and Kate Plus 8 is still on the air and will probably be on well into Barack's 2nd term :)

Hm...other than that, nothing is new.
Oh wait, that whole Sarah Palin mess. Really McCain, REALLY?!! What in god's name were you thinking? Sometimes i feel like he stands around in the mirror at home and practices his ideas for campaigning and then high fives him self. He must not have any true friends...good friends dont let you pick dumbass running mates. I betcha if McCain had Oreo in his tooth none of his so called "friends" would even tell him. What kind of people are these advisors? Ugh. I was doing a little research on this whole Palin family and found her precious little daughter posted up on some website boozing it up. Isn't she pregnant? hm...good call momma Palin. Notes to you parents out there from my perspective, ask your kids what they're doing. If they say "well mom, drinking and having unplanned babies," DONT RUN FOR VICE PRESIDENT! I mean its just a suggestion. I feel like she needs to get her fam back under control before she decides to be one step away from the most influential person in government. And another thing, you know how i feel about kids. Not only just kids in general, but kids with special needs. they are amazing, hands down. But, i know for a fact that I would much rather spend my time with my new born special needs child and with the one my daughter has on the way than be posted up at the white house, doing god knows what and staring at the wall pretending to fix things. But i guess, once again, thats just me. you are all entitled to your own opinion, but research it first before deciding. Dont just watch Fox news (which is where you went wrong) and do what they do. read up on your picks. you still have a little time before the big day. so get with it!

its good to be back! and i'll keep on writing! much love from tejas!
