Current Mood: ecstatic

I've been doing so much stuff, I don't even know where to start. 

Well for starters another semester is finished and I'm really close to graduating.  I think that will be one of the happiest days of my life, because this has not been easy folks.  I went to Sha'tu's graduating about a week ago and it was very inspiring.  Sha'tu received her Master's in Sociology and when she was hooded I almost cried.  I knew of the struggle it was for her to get through that and it was a true accomplishment.  So after that I wonder how emotional I’m going to be at my own graduation in December.  I also need to purchase a class ring, just to make it more real.  I didn’t get a ring in high school because I thought it was passé and I didn’t like the gaudy stones in them.  I want to get one similar to Bonnie’s because it’s small and classy.  There isn’t a stone in it so I like it even more.   

            So yall may be wonder why I’m so giddy right now.  It’s cause it’s May 24^th.  And what makes this day so special??  I am currently listening to a CD that I’ve waited four years to come out.  NIKKA COSTA!!!!  I’m listening to it an I just can’t believe it…but Ms. Costa is worth her own LJ entry so I will write about it later after I get through the CD and let all her greatness soak in.  To those that hear me talk about her all the time, I probably am good now until the next CD is about to come out. 

            A new hobby that has developed is going to professional sports events.  I’ve always liked sports but now I’m growing to love them.  I attended 2 Mavs playoff games.  I went with Bonita and Lynn.  Both of the games I went to they lost, but it was still a good experience.  The second game, Game 6 with the Suns was very sad.  Everyone thought they were going to win.  I’ve been to one Rangers game this season.  Since Bonnie works there she can hook her friends up.  So the last one it was Bonnie, Aletheia, and me.  I saw the Red Sox, and I have a new baseball crush (Manny Ramirez), lol.  Tomorrow I’m going to watch the Rangers again and this time we have Gold Club Access so I’m excited, and I’m sure I’ll update and tell yall all about that.  I’ve also been listening to the radio station The Ticket to get better sports insight and knowledge.  Now if the Stars could get off strike so I can start watching them…

            This past Sunday I hosted a Desperate Housewives soirée, in honor of the finale.  That finale show showed everyone why that is the best show on TV.  All the big secrets that they have been developing all came out in this episode.  I cooked a lot of food for the soirée.  I cooked boneless wings, Velveeta and rotel, and 3 dozen meat pies that were just great.  People also brought food and that was much appreciated.  I was in total Bree mode for this function and everything went perfectly.

            I’m also happy because I’ve found a second job with great benefits.  I’ll be working at Bath and Body Works in Lincoln Square.  Since Bath and Body is a part of Limited Brands I get a discont to all of their stores.  That includes:  Bath and Body, The Limited, Express, Express Men, Victoria Secret and White Candle Barn.  So I am very pleased because I can now work on the weekends.  Telecouncelor office is now closed Friday, Saturday and Sunday, so I need the hours.  I will be starting Summer I on May 31^st.  I’m taking 2 classes; I’m in the homestretch of getting the hell out of here. 

            Hopefully I won’t go this long in updating this journal cause there is just so much I want to say but I’ve forgotten some of what has gone on.
