Shake That Laffy Taffy :)

That's my song now... Tonia's fault. She always puts me on to good music.

I'm off to Greensboro today for Undergraduate Caucus. I'm excited to meet more fab Sorors and to be on A&T's campus. Hopefully I'll get to catch up with an old friend of mine in the area and just chill with my LS and Neo's :)

I'm starting to get that graduation itch! I picked up my cap and gown for Proclamation Night and tried it on. I must say, GRADUATION IS SOOOOO ME! I cant wait to find a cute dress to wear underneath my robe so that after I walk across that stage in all my splendor, I can de-robe, de- mortar board, fluff my hair (fro' vs. straignt ---I haven't decided) and glide right into my graduation party in Keller Garden! Its official, I'm blowing this joint in T-minus 8 month's! Its gonna be a hard road between here and there but once its done I'm sure I'll be glad. We had our first party this past weekend and it was interesting to see so many people back who had graduated. There presence could only mean one of two things.

1. Post-grad life is so ultra wack that you cling to the last amusing thing you experienced
or
2. They are so ultra wack that they are clinging to the last amusing thing they experienced.


If you ever see my overage ass at an undergrad party snatch me up with the quickness and send me to the nearest Happy Hour/Bar Lounge. Somewhere where the age limit is 25 and up, and there are more chairs than dance space. I cant accept that post grad life is that lame. If it is than I will just have to stay in my house cause its all about progression NOT regression!

OK I have a problem :( Everytime I go out I end up spending like $100. I'm not quite sure how this came to be but I have a hefty stack of receipts that taunts me. I'm not in debt and my credit card isn't causing any adverse affects to my credit score but I just need to slow it down. There's always some shit to buy, or some damn thing I just gotta have. I look at it like this, I only live once and if I don't enjoy life now when will I? So YES to the Longchamp Bag, YES to the IPOD, YES to the Guess Sale, and YES YES YES to the Prada Perfume. Things don't make me happy but they do assist :) I think its my repayment for working so hard. I'm finding more and more that the Jamaican in me is coming out :( I have like 3 jobs and from what I hear I have that mean Jamaican girl thing down to a T! Not sure where it came from but I guess its in my blood. The good thing about it all is that though I may be spending a little more I have also been saving more, which balances everything out. I'm trying to plan out and project my future so that I can glide right in without any speed bumps slowing me down. I've decided I want a Brownstone in FortGreen Brooklyn. I wanna live BMS and have a small dog by the name of Mrs. Trixsy. Mrs. Trixsy and I will live alone in our 3 story brownstone with no one visiting but my fam, the grocery delivery guy, my sorors and a gentleman caller or two :) I've decided I want to be a work-aholic! I wanna put everything into my job and launch The House of Cassandra Garnett by 27! No kids, no husbands, no bothers!
