Hey, It's Ok

Today I'm linking up with Amber for It's Ok Thursdays!

It's Ok..

...to clear my schedule for the afternoon, come home and take a four hour nap

...to realize that you've bitten off more than you can chew

...and realize that there's still a light at the end of the tunnel

...to count the number of Monday's left in the school year

...it's 11, but even less considering I'll be missing many a Monday on my trips, brother's graduation etc

...to be completely obsessed with Dance Moms

...and be counting down the days until Act of Valor comes out

...to wish everyday was Pinteresting Wednesday

...to have your Friday ruined by the fact that it's Tuesday

What are you saying "it's okay" to this Thursday?

Hey, It's Ok

Today I'm linking up with Amber for It's Ok Thursdays!

It's Ok..

...to still have Christmas music on your iPod.

...to listen to said Christmas music on the way to school because it's on the only CD you have in your car.

...to scream the immortal words of Kristin Cavallari, Laguna Beach Season 1, "My car is DUNZO" after my car would.not.start Tuesday morning.

...to be more than okay with taking the Tahoe since the Camry decided to die.

...to have to park in double overflow because I can't park our Tahoe or Suburban to save my life.

...to need a stepladder to get into either car.

...to be more than okay with spending three hours sitting in the back corner of the second floor of the library typing up a bibliography.

...to skip the gym and instead come home and catch up on Dance Moms.

What are you saying it's ok to this week?

Hey, It's Ok

Today I'm linking up with Amber for It's Ok Thursdays!

It's Ok..

...to be "that girl" to walk into IR class two minutes late with Starbucks in hand

...to have the excuse of "stimulating the economy" at the ready

...to continue to resist the urge to wear my Jacks, even though it's 75 degrees out

...to keep wanting to think it's March or April when it's only the second day of February

...to be stressed over the fact that I have 400+ likes on Pinterest that need to be sorted

...to keep hoping that more hours will magically appear in the day

...to realize that Pinterest could just double as an online dating site

...and that anything anyone will ever need to know about me can in fact, be found on Pinterest

...and since I'm really not obsessed with it enough, a typical conversation between my Mother and I: 

"Hey, so I saw this on Pinterest the other day..."

"Oh, I saw that too!"

"Can we do that? We really need to do that!"

"Yes, let's do it this weekend."

"I need to craft something. Now."

"Let's start a new project. Hobby Lobby this weekend? Good."

...we're not even sorry.

Today I'm linking up with Amber for It's Ok Thursdays!

It's Ok..

...to be more excited than one should be about writing your US History paper on Ronald Reagan 

...to be excited about my first International Relations test today because I get to write about the Navy and Marine Corps and why America is amazing (on a side note, go Seal Team 6!)

...to keep listening to the same five George Strait songs over and over again on Spotify

...to be okay that they all involve Texas

...to wish for more hours in the day, every single day

...to write out a State of the Union every night in my Moleskine notebook to help me get through the day

...to continue to entertain the thought of hiring a personal assistant

...or investing a permanent iced coffee or diet coke IV in my study

...to not have registered for the race I'm running in three weeks

What are you saying "It's Okay" to this Thursday?

Hey, It's Ok

Today I'm linking up with Amber for It's Ok Thursdays!

It's Ok..

...to not have watched a single episode of The Bachelor this season

...and instead focusing on the ADORABLE country boys of Sweet Home Alabama

...to get shaky when thinking about the SAT

...to give people weird looks when they give me recommendations for good restaurants in Delhi/Mumbai when I tell them I'm going to India

...to give them weirder looks when they give me weird looks when they realize that I'm not going there for fun

...to want to leave International Relations class everyday just because I'm the token Republican

...to want to wear tights, boots, wool skirts and a a cute top the rest of winter

...or my new Elsa with boots and leggings

...but at the same time wishing for warm weather, sunny days, platinum jacks and Lilly shifts.

What are you saying 'It's Ok' to today?

History Exam & Hey, It's Ok

Today is the second day of Midterm Season 2K11.  Today's super fun exam is U.S. History and I'm actually really excited to take it! I'm kind of a history nerd and I really don't mind writing about things that interest me, such as the causes of the Civil War. Or Washington crossing the Delaware.

After today I only have two more midterms and I'm FREE!

..to be  a brown-noser-with-a-not-so-hidden-agenda (yeah, i'm going there) while preparing your notes for your history exam, due to your OCD regarding all things historical

10 points for you if you got the Lizzie McGuire Movie reference.

..to be more worried that you haven't watched the new Hawaii Five-O than the fact that I have no clue what I'm writing for my English essay tomorrow.

..to not have bought a single Christmas present. There. I said it.

..to blame everything bad I do on the fact that it is firstly, my birthday week, and secondly it's midterms week.
