It's a beautiful day outside, and I keep scrolling through endless Facebook statuses about how nice the weather is, what a great day, etc. And here I am just sitting inside with a million things to do but no motivation to do any of them. It's just one of those days I guess! I took a chemistry test Friday, but I won't know my grade until tomorrow which is bugging me to no end! I'm dying to see how I did and praying for an A! Though for some reason I always think I did better than I actually do, so I guess I really shouldn't get my hopes up. I have just been a roller coaster of emotions lately. And I've been so wishy washy about things! I don't know what the deal is...and no, it's not possible that I'm pregnant! Believe it or not, it'd be a little bit of a relief if I had a reason for being like this. It's not period related either. Oh well. Anyway, I just wanted to rant a little. I guess I should go try and find something productive to do. I hope everyone is enjoying today! And if you're not, I feel your pain!

I moved back to my dorm yesterday. I think I came back with more clothes than I left with. My closet and dresser drawers are totally full. So after unpacking all that, I went to see all of my friends. It feels really weird to be back. Not much has changed though, lol. I'm a little nervous about classes. I start Tues. So wish me luck! My internet wasn't connecting to ftp earlier, and I nearly died thinking I'd only be able to update when I went home. But I got it! Thank goodness. So I shall be updating frequently. :] I will try VERY hard not to neglect the site like I did last semester. Anywho, gotta jet. Maybe I'll blog after my first week of class.

The Christmas one was starting to bug me. I didn't like having the menu at the top like that...so behold the new layout! I also moved the blog to its own separate page. So now I'm sure hardly anyone will read it. lol but that's okay.

I can't believe how fast Christmas came this year. I haven't even really enjoyed the holidays. I can't seem to get my mind off of school. I really hope I'm not making a big mistake with this whole pre-pharmacy thing. I think I want to do it...but how can you really know what you want to do for the rest of your life? It's a big decision. And I feel pressured to be sure about it now because I don't want to waste time and money in school. So I just keep stressing about next semester's classes. And then over the summer I'll be working my butt off everyday. A lady that my mom works with owns a daycare center, and she said she'd consider hiring me for over the summer. It'd be a great job cause it wouldn't start until June, and it'd be over a few weeks before I have to go back to school for fall semester. But I'm not sure if I want to do it yet. I don't know how good I am with kids, and it's kind of far from where we live. Ugh. It is way too early to start worrying about all this stuff. But I just can't help it!

I can't wait for Christmas. This weekend my friend from college is supposed to be coming down to see his uncle, and he wants to see me too. We were kind of "talking" before we left for winter break. So I'll be happy to spend some time with him. Well, I hope you all like the new layout. I'll be working on some new stuff tonight and tomorrow. ♥ Jess

Hello hello! I am in such a good mood, but it's very odd because I've been in a bad mood all day. This always happens to me! I'll be having a horrible day and then the smallest thing happens...like I see a little kid laugh or something and all of a sudden I'm just beaming with joy. lol. I guess that's a hormonal thing. Idk.

Anyways, I missed my daily update yesterday! But that is because I went to New Orleans for a family Christmas party. It was nice to see everyone. And somehow I ended up accidentally organizing a game of hide and seek with six screaming kids. Kids always love me! And I don't know why cause I'm not much of a kid person, but they just seem to gravitate towards me. It's weird. But I had fun playing with them.

I've been adding 2.0 layouts with banners at the top. These are a couple of the newest:







I'll be adding more later. I need to start working on a new layout, one that I actually really like. Cause I'm not too fond of this one except for the colors. I also want to organize things better.. I'm just not sure how. I'm not sure if I like having the menu at the top like this. Idk. We'll see! ♥ Jess

So, it is currently 1:29 AM and here I am wide awake. Blah. I've been sick for the past few days. So this whole not being able to sleep thing is pretty miserable. But oh well...I guess I'll get tired eventually.

I've been making layouts for the past few days. This is the newest one:





I think it's so cute! So much for me being "over" the whole myspace thing. lol. I've been enjoying making the new layouts. All the Christmas ones are new too. I hope you guys like them.

I still need to finish up my Christmas shopping. I can't believe Christmas is only a week away! Time flies. I feel like time goes by faster now that I'm older. It kind of scares me. It's like you don't realize how fast it really does go by until you grow up and then it just flies. I'm 19 now, and I still feel like a kid most of the time. Life is so strange...but enough of all those depressing thoughts!

Aside from working on the site, I've started playing Sims 3 again. I have to say, I was pretty disappointed in it. I like the Sims 2 much better. The only thing that I like better about 3 is that you can walk around the neighborhood freely without having to load the taxi and all that. But overall I think they could have made it a lot better. But that's just me.

Well, I guess I shall go take a Benadryl and *try* to sleep yet again. Hopefully this cold goes away fast! I hate being sick. Enjoy the new layouts! ♥ Jess

It is a bizarre feeling to go from the crazy busy life at college to being home again with absolutely nothing to do! Mostly I've just been catching up on sleep so far. I still need to finish up my Christmas shopping, but for some reason I'm not looking forward to it this year. I'm usually a holly jolly Christmas freak, but for the past couple of years I haven't really been getting into the holiday spirit.

In other news, I really want to get in shape. But I'm not really sure how to go about doing it. I don't want to lose any weight, but I want to build muscle. Can anyone recommend any exercise tips or videos or articles? We have a wii fit, so I've been doing that everyday, but I don't feel like it's getting me anywhere. I wish I had a personal trainer!

I was going to make a Christmas layout for this website, but I'm having a total design block. My creative juices just aren't flowing like they once were! I don't have any ideas...so here I sit. I will try to have some updates soon though.

Today my nephew of almost five months was hysterically crying non-stop. That was one of the scariest things I've ever seen. And it's one of those things that you don't think will be a big deal until you're actually holding a screaming baby and you just don't know what to do. It was bad. But my sister is taking him to the doctor right now. We think he's sick, so hopefully the doctor will give him something to take his pain away. Poor little thing.

Anywho, I guess I am going to do my workout of the day! ♥ Jess

Hello hello! I am so sorry it has been so long since my last post. But...I am finally done with classes until spring semester! I am so relieved. Finally I have a month to relax. I'm not really sure what is going to come of this site. I have pretty much stopped using Myspace in favor of Facebook. So, I don't really know what I'm going to do. I don't really have interest in making myspace layouts and graphics anymore, but I do love having a website. I guess we'll see. In the meantime, I'm going to start adding articles to the magazine. I will post more later. Have a great day! <3 Jess

Wowzah, I am so sorry that I neglect this site so much. It's just really difficult to keep up with it now that I have so much homework and studying to do all the time. Here is my schedule for those who are interested:

Monday: Chem 107 (8-8:50), History 111 (9-9:50), Biology 121 Lab (10-12)

Tuesday: Biology 120 (9:30-10:45), Univ 101 (11-11:50), Math 113 (2-3:15)

Wednesday: Chem 107 (8-8:50), History 111 (9-9:50), Chem 109 Lab (2-5)

Thursday: Chem 107 (8-8:50), Biology 120 (9:30-10:45), Univ 101 (11-11:50), Math 113 (2-3:15)

Friday: Chem 107 (8-8:50), History 111 (9-9:50)


Mondays and Fridays are my favorites. I love biology lab! But the lecture is so long, and the tests are pretty challenging. I made an A on the first one though. My next one is next Thursday, so I'll be studying all week for that. It's a lot more material! Anyway, I managed to sort through all my emails today. I caught up on the couples requests. I'll try to blog as much as I can! Also, I'll be adding new articles to the magazine, so check that out! ♥ Jess

Well, tomorrow I'm moving into my dorm! And instead of spending this time packing, I've been looking up videos on youtube. I LOVE WATCHING MISHEARD LYRICS VIDEOS! Some of them are really dumb because the lyrics are easily understandable, but my favorites are Yellow Bedletter and Smells Like Teen Spirit. I have posted them below:











And here's something for those of you who watched Big Brother a few years ago:







I love Chilltown! I think they were the best alliance in BB history, and they're absolutely hilarious! I've been watching this season of Big Brother, and I didn't really like any of the house guests at first. But now I like Jeff cause I think he's a cutie. I can't believe how all the girls cried when Jessie left! Especially Lydia...her so called "friends" of the house put her up for eviction as a 'pawn' almost every week! Jeff saved her last week, and she shows no loyalty to him! That's just insane to me. And I'm so glad Chima left the house. She was a sore loser! I can't believe she refused to wear her microphone. If you're going to do things like that, then don't sign a contract to be on a reality show!



Anyway, just thought you guys might enjoy some funny videos. Have a great day!! I'll be posting dorm pictures on the magazine this weekend if any of you are interested!

Well, today I added a new site layout. It's a lot different as you can see because the navigation is now in a horizontal menu above. I just think it looks neater that way. I think I'm going to start blogging on here. I've been in a blogging mood lately, but with the old layout there was no where to blog! Anyway, my latest project has been working on my brand new online magazine. It doesn't have an official name yet or anything. I just called it Oh Really Magazine because I have no clue what it will evolve into. Right now the goal is to provide articles about high school and college, but there will be other articles too that are appealing to teens. Here's a screenshot of the magazine:



Click the image to visit the site. It took me so long to figure out how to install Wordpress and customize the theme! I had to read about 5 tutorials before I found a good one that I actually understood. But it is amazing! For any bloggers-Wordpress is the way to go! It's so easy to use! So anyway, that's what I've been spending most of my time on lately. I'm starting college in less than two weeks, and I'll have a blog on there about my college experiences. Pass the word along to anyone you think may be interested in it! I hope you all enjoy the new layout. ♥Jess
