It's a beautiful morning

After pressing the snooze button several times, I finally gave in and pulled myself out of bed to greet the day. Going through the motions of washing my face, brushing my teeth, breakfast, facebook...I know! How sad is it that part of my morning routine is facebook? It's all good though.

But just some random thoughts for you, I leave in 15 days to go to Cowboy's BCT(basic combat training) graduation. I am pretty excited that I'm going to be able to go. I feel like it's a blessing that I've long waited for, and he has too. On another note, lucky me found a calculus study-buddy. Thank goodness for Marines. :)

Wake up and smile! You're alive!
It's a beautiful morning.

[if i were] Beauty & [my] Beast

As far as college shenanigans go, Pocho and I did, infact, end up revamping our entire room. It looks pretty awesome. I think we are both very pleased with the outcome; mission accomplished team!!

After all that craziness in our room we were introduced to the wonderful thing known as the milkshake machine at our C-store and it was delicious. Chocolate malt milkshake, Yum! We then attended a FREE showing of the Beauty and the Beast. I have never been in such an obnoxious movie theater as the likes of that on my campus. It is total craziness. We all sang-a-long and it was pretty cute. :) Watching the movie however got me thinking about my own "beast"; Cowboy. And though he's not eight feet tall and covered in fur, this Disney classic reminded me how far he has come from the beast that he used to be, and I'd like to think that maybe one day I'll be his beauty.

Speaking of Cowboy I got a phone call today! All those Army Girlfriends out there I know you feel me! and here's a shout out to our awesome-selves! It was so lovely to hear his voice and it was awesome that I was able to share good news with him and hear his excitement. It was truly a great feeling!

Headed to the gym bright and early with Pocho but I find myself up late re-doing my nails.

Live the life you love, Love the life you live.

Wet flipflops, missing roommate, and military men

It was wonderful when I looked out of my classroom window earlier today and saw that it was pouring down rain and I knew that it was a hike uphill in flipflops to my next class. And when I did finally arrive at my next class I discovered that class had been canceled and I then had to hike across campus to lunch. I decided that a change of clothing was in order before I headed out with Kentucky and HossBoss for lunch. Pocho wasn't feeling up to going out with us, but we made plans to loft our beds when I returned.

We were enjoying lunch and I even caught up with Uptown, that is until we looked outside and saw the monsoon that was raging. HossBoss came prepared for this weather but Kentucky and I however were not.

Upon finally reaching the safety of my room, after kicking off my wet flipflops I realized that my lovely roomie was M.I.A. ..So much for lofting our beds and rearranging our rooms earlier. I was then left with my thoughts and I turned to Pandora radio to spur my thoughts of the military men in my life i.e. Cowboy and Marine.

Oh My-lanta.
