I signed up for classes this morning. I'm taking Macroeconomics, Statistics, Business Calc, and Financial Accounting. This semester is gonna be FUUUUUUN!

I met Ashlee at the mall and we went to get my new phone from Kennay and I love it! It's a white Blackberry Curve and it's magical.

I worked 7 to 9.

Had an awesome conversation with Katrina about music, stupid girls, and our lives back in highschool. We like ourselves so much better now. It was a GOOD talk! She's the greatest, we have basically the same brain when it comes to a lot of things.

DESPICABLE ME TOMORROW MORNING! I AM SOOOOO EXCITED!
