See Ya Later, March... Helloo Spring Break!

I'm sorry but I just had to post about how ridiculously fast this school year has gone. We have less than nine weeks left of school and I think that is NUTS! This following week is Spring Break, which means I have TEN days to do whatever the heck I want to do :) I am gonna chill here in South Carolina until Wednesday, and then Thursday, BRIGHT AND EARLY, I'm headed to the Big Apple. I'm so excited to go home... I need a break from it all. Yeah, yeah... I probably should have gone the whole time, BUT let's not get crazy. I dohave a CAT that I need to think about now, and I don't think he would enjoy a plane ride too much.

So, let's see ... plans for this spring break... what do they entail?

1. Hopefully I'll get to sleep in! After the week I've

had at work, I know I need to catch up on some sleep in my little bed in NY.

2. Finally see the fricken HUNGER GAMES. I have been wanting to see

this since it was released that they were making it. However, since I am daughter of the year, I told my beautiful mother that I would wait to s

ee it with her when I came home. That's Love.

3. Hopefully I'll get to go to the driving range and smack the crap out of some golf balls. If it's nice out, I'll even drive the cart and my Dad and I wil

l play.... (until I get bored). HA!

4. Yeah... I plan on coming back with a few things I

didn't come with. I have a shopping problem and I am okay with it. My mom does not support this

shopping habit while I'm not South Carolina, but miraculously, every time I'm in New York, she is all for my addiction.

5. I definitely plan on doing some reading over the break (after all, I AM a teacher). But I will not be reading professional teacher diaries and the latest advancement ideas for the classroom... I will be reading Something Blue. If you haven't read these yet, you need to. So good... I kind of love them. A parent of one of my students gave me another book to read too... she says she has THE SAME taste in books as me... oh yea? We'll see, mama... We'll see.

6. And last, but not least... I plan to PARTY with my friends. I plan on putting the beer box over my head, just like this cat. I plan on trying Bethenny Frankel's new Skinny Girl Pina Colada... I plan on just having a good time.

So, I know this is not a COLLEGE SPRING BREAK and it may not even sound like too much fun to any of you... but it sounds like a dream to me. I am so excited to go home and get away from everything and everyone that is pissing me off. It's a short list, but people who know me know when I'm pissed... I'm pissed. Roar. Here's to not being pissed anymore... CHEERS!

You Know You Have Problems When...

Your DVR won't let you watch Live TV. Yeah... this thought just came into my head because oftentimes I am watching TV and well, all the sudden, a little blue message says I can't watch it anymore because all TVs are being used since I am DVRing 3 shows at once. This happens more than you'd think. BUT ITS NOT MY FAULT. This post is dedicated to the shows that take up my TV time.... enjoy.

Pretty Little Liars is the most addictive and intense show I've seen in a while. It's such a teenie bopper hit... but I love it. I follow every actress on Twitter, and yes, I tweet them just PRAYING for a retweet. I am a fan. I've been watching it since the beginning and also got my roomie into it-- it's a must see.

Next is GCB. I never thought I'd be into this "Good Christian Bitches" show. But hey, I'll try

anything once... and that's what I did with

this show. Danielle asked me to watch it with her since her girl friends don't watch "shows like these". Haha... she knew I did. And I'm so glad I did-- it's a winner.

I love everything about the show. I love Adam Levine's... well, his everything... I love Ceelo's cat and creepy comments... I love Blake's hair (?) (couldn't think of anything) ... and I love Christina's hair accessories.

Oh Dance Moms... This show makes me wish that I had a mom that forced me to dance everyday for 10+ hours a day. This show is so ridiculous and I love it.

I don't need to explain this one. I am Snooki... and I'm okay with it.

I used to be a huge fan of the Real World, but now I just think they're kind of lame. I only look forward to The Real World because that means that there will be another Challenge coming up. I think the kids they're choosing now are just NOT as good as the vets. I love me some CT and Brad... gah.

Ok. There is NOTHING about this woman that I don't like. I love her. I DVR every episode of Chelsea Lately and Are You There Chelsea. Although I am not a HUGE fan of her sitcom... I'm tryin, girl. Love love Love her.

Ok, believe it or not... I have plenty more on my DVR that I have not even shared on here. Thanks for lending me your ear (well... eyes) Now go watch some TV!!!

Eli Manning

This Valentine's Day was not the best I've had... going through break ups in February seem to be my calling. Why not? February is the shortest month... my birthday... AND Valentine's Day. There's always room for some heartache too. Anyways. SO... what to do when your heart is ripped out and you want nothing more than to cry all day everyday? Well... Go shopping. Yeah, of course, retail therapy does it for me EVERY TIME. However, the mall started to get a little old, so what else is there to do? Go punch things at 9 Round! Yeah, that takes out some aggression, but I need more... I got it... GET A CAT! Duh. So that's exactly what I did. Eli Manning the cat is probably the most amazing cat you'll ever meet. You say you don't like cats? I DARE you to meet Eli and tell me you don't like him. It's impossible. I'm pretty sure he thinks he is a dog (he fetches) and he definitely knows how to talk. He says words like "Hello" "Ouch" and "Mom". Brilliant. My year started off very shaky in the beginning but I can now happily say that I have another man in my life and his name is Eli Manning.

Eli in his FAVORITE (and by favorite, I mean h

e absolutely HATES) jersey! Thanks mom for getting him a Jersey that says NEW YORK and #10 on it. Purrrrrrfect.

And there you have it... He fetches. I am not even lying. Sara can back me up on this.

I promise, I did not put him in there. He is just adventurous and stupid at times. His other hobbies also include hiding in kitchen cabinets and falling into toilets.

And finally, here is something you rarely see. Cats are known for being lazy and sleeping all day. Now... I don't know what he does all day while we're at school, but I do know that he is ABSOLUTELY insane when we come home. It's kind of nice when he's passed out.

Acceptable Day Drinking

Yesterday was one of the finest and enjoyable days of the year thus far. My birthday (obviously) was a front runner in this, but yesterday was a close second. We celebrated St. Patrick yesterday... and although I'm not quite sure of the REAL meaning of St. Patty's Day, I know how I like to celebrate it. Lots and lots of green beer. Yesterday began with an "Irish Breakfast" consisting of things that should not have been found on the same plate. Eggs... onions... beans (??)... a tomato... yea, it was all kind of strange, but the best part is the free Guinness that came with it. Knowing how awful and disgusting Guinness is, Chad decided to do the intelligent thing and make everyone's Guinness turn into an Irish Car Bomb. Brilliant. 10:00 am.... And so it begins. Anyway, yesterday was a great day filled with Leprechauns, scantily clad girls, and some brat with a snaggle tooth. We had big dreams going into the night... after sharing a reuben with my now-friend and ex (shout out, Jordan! hah)... we decided to go back to the apartment "just for a little while". A little while turned into the whole night. Yeah... we fell asleep and woke up at 10:30 pm-- too lame togo back out. But hey, there's always next year I guess.
