St. Patrick's Day

saturday :)

So blog world, it's Saturday, which is probably my favorite day of the week. A lot of people seem to be particularly fond of Sunday, because it's a day of relaxation because there isn't much to do, but for me, Sunday means I realize how much I procrastinated the week before and have to catch up on homework.

Saturday = I'm still in denial about what work I have to do(10) + happy Liz

I multiplied "I'm still in denial about what work I have to do" by 10 because I really, really am in denial and really, really have a lot of stuff to get done. But, don't ask me to figure out an equation anymore difficult than that. Math just isn't my thing. But, I guess that's why I'm a journalism major. Wall Street Journal knows what's up. Read this article here.

Anyways, obviously, I'm sitting here writing in my blog right now, but I'm also listening to my iTunes. And, I know you are so interested in my life, that you are wondering "Well, gee wiz, Liz. What are you listening to?"

I'm listening to Bowling for Soup- "You and Me." Bam. Sha-bam. flo-ham.

And in case you were also wondering, yes, I am bored.

So after having a little dispute with Ray last night I decided I need to learn a better way to channel my frustration. Whenever I get upset, the fact that I get upset overrules my ability to communicate effectively. I can't let this happen, because it leads to me getting more upset because Ray has no idea what the hell is going on and I can't effectively explain. It doesn't really happen that often, I feel like for the most part I'm easy-going. But sometimes, I just don't know what happens. I know I have to try to get better at that, and I really really want to, but it's not something that I can do with just the flip of a switch. It'll take time.

In other news, well, there isn't any other news. It's saturday, which is do nothing day, like I said before. So, I'm going to end this post now, and continue with my weekend.

WQED internship

Ok. So, I haven't blogged in a pretty long while. In my defense I was busy right before spring break, and then during spring break I didn't have the time because I was away, and well, this week I have been fairly busy too!

So, I went to an interview today with WQED which is the pbs station in Pittsburgh. I applied for the OnQ internship where I'd be helping with the production of the nightly magazine show, OnQ. I think the interview went well, out of everything I've applied for, this is my top pick. I wanted to try something other than writing.

After the interview, they showed me the Mr. Rogers set. It was pretty sweet. It was cool to see the set because Mr. Rogers is a show I watched all of the time when I was growing up, and it's nice that a show like that is from Pittsburgh.



I was also shown the set of QED Cooks, and the host/cook of the show, Chris Fennimore was getting ready to tape while I took a peek! But, that wouldn't mean much to anyone that doesn't get WQED on their television.

Today there's a party at my apartment. It's the AKPsi Big/Little party. I only plan on sticking around until a little bit after lizzy gets done at work.

This weekend I have a lot of catching up to do for my Contributiong Editor internship with College Prowler. yay. :( But hopefully it isn't too bad.

I think this is a sufficient update for now. I will try to write again sooner than later!

my brother's band

zero

According to my Google Analytics, zero is the number of readers I've had on my blog for the past 3-4 days. If I were in elementary school, I'd be the creepy kid who talks to herself at recess and eats dirt. Not that I need a lot of people reading this, but it is nice to know people do!

---------------------
So, I was home this weekend. My dad is out of town, so my mom has the house to herself, well, she has my brother and our pet dog and cat, but none of them, not even my brother, make for good company.

On Friday, I went grocery shopping with my mom and watched the movie "Prom Night." She attempted to guess everything that was going to happen. Luckily, I've seen the movie before, so she didn't ruin anything for me lol

On Saturday, I woke up and showered. I had an amazing hair day. I don't know about anyone else, but if you are having a good hair day, you just have a good day in general. Bad hair = bad day.

I then made cupcakes. Delicious cupcakes. They were vanilla with vanilla frosting and green and red sprinkles (leftover from christmas, of course).
I ate about 6 cupcakes over the course of the weekend.

My brother had his first show with his band on Saturday. He did so well! I was really proud of him. I have videos on my camera, so I will try to post one in a future blog.

Throughout the weekend, I was also greeted, via text message, by various lovely photos of my favorite puppies in New York, Penny and Peanut.<3

On Sunday, I woke up and went to the mall with my mom. I purchased a sweater because I need more warm clothes. I'm hoping the more nice looking warm clothes I have the less inclined I will be to wear hoodies everyday (Um, nope I'll probably still wear hoodies everyday. Who am I kidding?)

In American Eagle they have the most amazingly cute spring clothes. It made me want spring to get here so I can feel cute again. I always feel so trashy in the winter, hence why I am trying to not wear hoodies everyday.

When I got home, I watched my mom wait for a radio contest to come on and she sang Taylor Swift while she waited. Then, she was disappointed to discover someone already won the contest. Please view sideways video below.



It was honestly, the 5th time we heard the same Taylor Swift song that day, and it was only 2 p.m.

I then decided i'd shower and get ready to hit the road. And that brings us to now. I'm back at SRU. I just need to get through my comm law midterm this week and then it's spring break time :) It is much needed.

Apples and Oranges

Which internship do you think is more awesome?

my phone is dying

I forgot my phone charger in my apartment! I'm home for the weekend and my phone is at one bar! Oh no :(

I took an amazing nap today and am about to eat buffalo chicken pizza :)


That is all i will say for now.

Oh, and ps- I love this pup and she loves me.
