Good Morning

Lately I've realized that I feel A LOT better after my cup of coffee in the morning.
Coffee + muffin = breakfast. Probably gonna make this an everyday thing.

YUMMM

Go Cleveland!!

YESSS!! THE CAVS BEAT MIAMI :)

Dear Lebron James,

You can suck Cleveland's dick.

Love, Believeland.

The Cleveland Cavaliers have the best fans in the NBA.

Ohh, and screw you Lebron.

Pristavsko Taborjenje

This is what I live for. These three girls, this camp, being slovenian. I love it. I miss it, and them. I need summer now. I want Camp Pristava so bad. More importantly, I need my girls. Holly, Adi, Kati... ljubim te. I don't know what I'd do without you guys.



TOMS



I had heard of these shoes before, but a girl in my communications class talked about them again today in her speech. For every pair sold, the company donates a brand new pair of shoes to a child in need. They're actually pretty cute and said to be extremely comfortable. A girl that I talked to when going on a tour at Kent said that she loves hers because they're so comfortable to walk in. Comfy shoes = a MUST for college students.

Tuesdays

Tuesdays are my easy days. Two classes back to back and then I'm done for the day. 9:55 to 11:55 and then the rest of the day to myself. I can't decide if that's a good thing or a bad thing. I LOVE having my whole day to do whatever I want, but thats just the thing. If I have too much time on my hands I don't get much done. Consider this: I have a speech due on thursday. I could work on it today and get it over with, but I'll probably stay up late tomorrow night and do it, which will suck because I have class ALL DAY tomorrow. I can't focus unless I have pressure. Thats when I get my best work done.

Instead of working on our project, Sarah and I made signs and slid them under people's doors. hahaha, it was a blast.

Currently watching Fame on netflix, its a remake though.

Kent Stand It Here Anymore

Today is my first day back from spring break and let me tell you... All I really want right now is to go back home. At first I loved Kent State. But now I feel like its all just full of drama. I was so excited to graduate from high school to get away from all of that, but now its here too. The worst part is: NONE OF IT IS MINE, but I still hear about it all day long because my group of friends can't seem to get along with each other. And on top of that, my living situation for next semester is soooo screwed up.

Since I've been at Kent I've made lots of friends. For starters there's the roomie, Kelsey. We get a long really well and I loved living with her this semester. Then theres Katie, Kristina, Emily, and Kristen that all live on my floor. Kirsten lives upstairs and Kate and Caitlyn live in Centennials. Then the boys: Zach, Alec, Kyle, Josh, Jordan E, Jordan P (Arnold), and Tre. We all got along really well until recently. Idk what happened. Well, actually I do but thats a lot to type out and I could be here for days.

Classes have been going well I guess. For the most part I don't hate it here. I used to love it, but I think that's just because I loved being on my own. I'm thinking about changing my major from Early Childhood Education to Special Education and I am seriously considering transfering to Ohio State. I love it down there. It was my first choice as a school but I didn't go because Early Childhood was at a regional campus in Mansfield (boooooo). Starting to get everything together and transfer. I feel like it will be good for me. I need something new. I really can't see myself here for four years. I'd kill myself. It will suck though not seeing Kelsey, Emily, and Katie every day. The three of us have gotten really close and I love them to death. They'll just have to come down and visit me all the time.

Theres nothing to do here on campus on the weekends. Sure theres frat parties and stuff but none of my friends ever really wanna go. The parties are fun, but they're not that great here. I usually end up watching movies in my room or we all just hang out in the lounge complaining about our lives.

Frank and I have been great :) I love him so much. We've been together now for five months and he's the biggest sweetheart ever. I can't imagine what I'd do without him. No matter what he can always put a smile on my face and make me feel better. He is my everything: my boyfriend, my best friend, my rock. He graduates this semester and I can't wait to have him home in Ohio. Milwaukee was wayyyyy too far. He's looking at graduate school, possibly Akron. Thats only 15 minutes from Kent, but 2 hours away from Ohio State. Either way, its wayyy better than the 7 hour drive. Can't wait to see him for Easter. 24 days :) Its the best feeling in the world when I can just fall asleep in his arms. I feel so comfortable with him and so safe. He still gives me butterflies when he kisses me and I get goosebumps everytime he touches me. I can't remember a time before we started talking when someone made me this happy. I love him so much.

I finally got to see Paul over break, too bad it had to be when he had surgery. What a butthead. His girlfriend Becca and I went out to lunch while he was getting worked on so that we could finally meet. She's pretty cool and I'm really glad we get along. The next day I went and sat with him and watched basketball. Brought over Jamocha shakes from Arby's, he loved it. I missed him. After everything that he and I went through and overcame, I'm glad that we're as close as we are. I love him to death and know that he will always be one of my best friends.

I CAN'T WAIT FOR SUMMER. I have so many plans but I doubt everything will work out. I need a job, badly. And with everything I wanna do, theres no way I'll be able to take off as much as I want to. Mom wants me to get a 9-5 job. Ick. I really want a job at a daycare center because I love kids and it would be such a blast. There's one in Mentor that I sort of have an "in" with and I'm really hoping to get the job cause its nice and close. We'll see. Frank and I wanna spend the summer together doing all these crazy things. He wants to go back up to Milwaukee for the Dave Matthew's concert, which would be so much fun. We wanna take a ride up to NYC. I'm going on vacation with the family. Camp Pristava. Theres just not enough time in the summer. Although, if I transfer to Ohio State, my summer will be much longer because I would get out from Kent the first week of May and then go to OSU in September. We'll see though. I really need to work.

I'm gonna try to post at least once a day. A bunch of random thoughts, pictures, tips... idk. This is all about my life, my thoughts, and my feelings. I'm thinking diary/collage/notepad type blog.. hmm.

Until next time,
Kat

Fingers Crossed?

Optimism is key. I am always doing things with my fingers crossed because I want to do my best and hope that everything comes out the way I planned. Its a proven fact that optimists have more friends because they are generally happier people. Sure, pessimists are either right or pleasantly surprised when they're wrong, but its good for the soul to be positive. Positive people attract positive things.

This blog is called With Fingers Crossed because I hope for the best with everything I do.
