Getting into summer

So summer has started going and I'm seriously into the flow. My days are filling up with plans, starting with:



  • cookouts

  • swimming outings

  • midnight movies

  • days at Adventureland

  • trips around Iowa, Missouri and Nebraska.

  • concerts

  • much more :)

Thursday is the start of all these plans, starting with a friend's grad party, going to the X-men: First Class midnight premier, and ending with 3AM pancakes. Sounding pretty good to me. Not that all the plans take away from plain old relaxing time. Heck, despite 2 cookouts, a visit with my grandparents and a couple parties, I've still been able read 4 books cover to cover in the past 3 days. It's gonna be a good summer from what I can tell :D

Late Nights and future plans!!!

Ok, so today I was pretty exhausted. I fell asleep at 5 and woke up at 9, didn't even wake up for supper. Now that I am awake, I can't get back to sleep. So what do I do?? Surf the internet, of course. In my random search of the web, I came upon a trailer for the Green Lantern movie. Now, I love comic books, I know a lot about the random facts of said comic books characters too. Normally, I'm more of a Marvel then a DC girl, but there are times when I lift that, this being one of them. And that's because it looke like they're largely sticking to the correct story line!!! I mean Ryan Reynolds, no offense but maybe not the best pick for Hal Jordan but as long as the story line is right I don't care who they cast. After watching the trailer and being extremely bored I made 2 decisions: 1. I was going to see the movie when it came out(result of trailer), and 2. I was going to make a makeup look based off of the Green Lantern to wear to the movie when I go(result of boredom) . So this is what you get.



So moral of the story: this is a great boredom buster!! So maybe anytime I find a movie I wanna see, I'll create a look for it, prolly not but still. And no this isn't interchangable with the Incredible Hulk, cuz that would require purple along with the green.

Graduated

High school is over!! Its was good-but-bad-but-okay. I'll somethings (marching band, Burns' room, A day lunch with Ervin, etc) but there's alot I won't miss. But now I get to move forward with my summer. I'll be helping at a downtown elementary til June 10th (good work exp.) and then its Living History Farms, and summer job til August and then you know where to!!!!

senior year

It's finally done, no more classes. Hooray! All that's left is to get the diploma and I'll be free to start summer and finishing planning for college. I'd like to do a recap of some of the great things that came out of my senior year.





  1. Tutoring- This gave me a clear sense of my passion for teaching and ultimately helped me figure out what i wanna do with my life.

  2. "Tyrsa is the girl from that's what she said"- just plain truth


  3. New Friends: Ervin, Chad, Laura, Taylor, Brandon, Krista.


  4. Daniel: as always a favorite part of my day, still as sweet as ever and I love him more every day


  5. Prom Committee and hanging in Burns' room (hours and hours of crepe paper flower making lol)

  6. Great year for music: We the Kings, A Day to Remember, Flobots, The Nightmare revisited album...so many more.

And so much more, I can't think of them all right now. lol

Hectic Things

So, I stopped posting for a bit. I've been busy with school, and getting ready for graduation, so you can't really blame me. What with planning my reception and studying for finals and working on final projects, its hard to find time to do other things. Unfortunately, my reception is in a week and then my projects are all due on the 16th and then my finals fall on the 17th and 18th, so its like the perfect storm. I'll try to post more often and here's something to make up for the lack of posts.
