Whew...sorry I've been absent lately (to all of the 2 ppl following my blog...heh). Been a tad busy attempting to figure out what I want to do with the rest of my life, which sounds a lot less scary than it actually is.
Battening down the hatches here in preparation for a pretty bad storm coming in. Ice had formed a skin on practically everything in sight in a matter of minutes. At least campus has been closed 'til Wednesday, which should help a little with traffic. Jason saw a wreck outside his work, and was nearly in one on his way to come rescue me from the ice demons.
Otherwise, all here is good. Resume looks pretty awesome, if I do say so myself. Going to spiff it up a bit more, then I might post it for you guys to oogle. In the process of making tacos (or rather, waiting for the beef to thaw) and looking forward to spending tomorrow snuggled up with tea, knitting, and music (or a book). Sheesh, I already sound like my grandma...hehe - Oh well.
Thinking of places to go for honeymoon and we've narrowed it down to Spain or there-abouts. Any suggestions or tips would be neat. :)

Snow
We've been getting a decent bit of snow today, and it's not supposed to stop 'til Thursday, which should make travel interesting. It's actually wet enough to make snowmen and snowballs, both of which I saw outside Taylor Hall today. :)
I'm thinking of having a snowball fight with Jason, if the snow stays around, and we feel like it. The last time we acted like kids in the snow was Valentine's day a few years back. He'd come to spend it with me since my boyfriend at the time was in Florida with family. It turns out, Jason got snowed in and couldn't go to either of his jobs. We did have fun building a snow-cave, though. Jason had a hilarious time explaining to a bewildered Tana why you can make hot chocolate without the Swiss Miss stuff - and the result of that was completely amazing, not to mention leaves Jason with an uber-cute story to tell to friends and family -
Today I was actually invited to be an usher at my college's production of Hamlet, which includes cool costumes! I'm excited, as I haven't had a chance to do much theater-related stuff lately. I helped a friend in August 2010 with a performance involving a not-for-profit (4theyouth.org) and me dressed up in traditional Veitnamese clothing. But prior to that, I haven't doing theater, or theater-tech stuff since High School, and I miss it. I didn't take any of the classes for it, so I feel like I missed out on some of the important bits, but I have enough friends in theater that I sort of learn-as-I-go or know most of the really important stuff.
I'll try to get pictures of the Hamlet stuff, if I'm not too busy with other theater-tech-ish fun.

Welcome to the real world
Well, I finished my last set of classes in December, and the new semester has started today. I feel a bit odd, being on campus and not having class. This morning I sort of freaked-out-about-not-having-to-freak-out-about-classes. Does that even make sense? Now I have to find stuff to keep me from going nuts.
So far :
Glad I made it through college, though - even if it had its serious low-and-scary bits. Have to say, couldn't've done it without my fiancee, Jason. He is totally awesome and has sacrificed so much so that I could finish my classes (I had less college left than he did), even BEFORE we started dating. I just hope I can find a decent job soon so we can figure out planning this wedding and whatnot. I'm so thrilled I get to marry my best friend!! <3
I'll try my best to update this as often as possible - hopefully this will help keep me in a writing-kind-of-mood and make sure my degree isn't just a bit of paper.
So far :
- clean the apartment (Friday, onward)
- knit stuff (or rather, pick knitting back up and learn more)
- write!
- job hunt
