Today is my day off, and let me tell you - I've done NOTHING!! And it's great. I'm learning days off are made for doing nothing! I got up at 8 (thank you, Mom!) and made myself three blueberry pancakes, toast and an egg - oh and Caramel Macadamian Nut Coffee! Yum.... then I proceeded to ... sit around and watch TV! Actually, I now have an addiction to this Webkinz stuff. My newest little buddy, Oscar the elephant, keeps me occupied for hours at a time. I never understood exactly what it was - but basically, you get a little stuffed animal that comes with a code, then you go on the website, put in the code and start taking care of your animal! Oscar is living better off than I am right now ;) You earn money by playing games and whatnot - which is now what I'm addicted to - then buy things with the money. And I even have Pam's kitty as my friend!! Anyway - that has taken up a lot of my day - those games are quite addicting.

Besides that, I watched Dirty Dancing Havana Nights - it even has Patrick Swayze in it! Good movie. And besides that, I've chatted today with Mom, Pam, Grandma and Zachary. That's about it!

So I've been doing some thinking about what to do with myself. And we all know, I apparently can't stay in one place too long and I like to move around but I have to get myself through school, that's the bottom line, no matter where I am. So of course, with that, I have to be sure of what I want to do with myself. If I continue with graphic design, I have to end up somewhere that actually would be...appropriate? for a graphic design career. People have even said that Hawaii just doesn't have a need. So there's that. But then I try to think, do I really want to do that? What about psychology? I really enjoyed psychology - but I don't think that, in all honesty, I can be a psychologist (because that's where I'd head with that) for the rest of my life and NOT end up depressed listening to peoples' troubles everyday. Okay so then I remember that I used to be very interested in Art Therapy. In fact, I still am. But at the time I was looking, there weren't many schools that offered this as a major. In fact, now there's one in Ohio, but only one - and that's Ursuline that offers it as a Masters Program. Capital has an undergrad program. Otherwise, most schools are in New York, Florida, Illinois, etc. The only place I would consider is Florida....besides Ohio obviously. Though, we all know how miserable Ohio's weather is - one of the reasons I moved in the first place. Unfortunately, I had considered Georgia, and Tiffany had made mention of the HOPE program - where your college tuition is paid by the state if you meet certain criteria (certain GPA, residency, etc). So that would be ideal, but I found no Art Therapy programs in Georgia. OH THE DECISIONS!!!! I have to pick my major and go from there, I suppose. Sorry to babble but I really need to get it all out and figure out what to do with myself!! Any input is always great appreciated ;)

I hope everyone had a good start to your weekends - I'm back to work tomorrow for another busy week - woohoo! :) Miss you as always.

me.
