go for it anyway;

Here are some items of business.

1. I got on that guest list for the People's Court, and I was told I could bring a buddy (though I may NOT wear white or tan (LOL TELEVISION AUDIENCE RULES)) so I am going to fucking NYC in a couple weeks whether my jobs or my checking account like it or not. I have asked Katherine to join me, and I hope she can because of course I would prefer to have a buddy, but I am going either way and I am pretty stoked about it!!
PLUS I GET TO BE IN THE SAME ROOM AS JUDGE MILIAN MY QUEEN I LOVE HER.

2. My last day at the retail job is the Tuesday before Thanksgiving.. Thus, I only have a couple more weeks until I am back to being a one-job lady. That will be a relief.

3. I am really disappointed that I won't get to be in Italy for more than 3 months, but I am rolling with it and back to the grind of trying to find a host family so I can go somewhere else after that. Poland is an option now- I've emailed back and forth a couple times with a Polish family that seems awesome- I think I would love them. I hope that, or something equally good, works out.

4. I am mildly considering applying to the University of Miami for a Masters in Mental Health Counseling & Therapy. It seems like a really cool program.. Miami culture seems AWESOME, and I mean.. I am not TOTALLY sure that this is my true calling, but it is definitely something I have been interested in for years, so I think I should at least apply and see what happens!

5. That said, I need to take the GRE... and I need to do it before I leave the country. Luckily, there are a LOT of dates & times available in December (I'm leaning towards December 20 at the moment) .. because my UM application has to be in by March I think.. so I'll have to do that from Verona. :) (MY LIFE IS GETTING COOL Y'ALL)
Anyway.. sometime this week I need to locate a book with which to study for the GRE which has apparently changed VERY recently, so I'll have to get a new book. But.. whatever. I will learn some shit I guess and take a test and then I will have that to submit in case I FOR REAL go to grad school. The risky part of this is, I need to kick the GRE's ass, because I only have time to take it once before this application is due.. Blargh.

Anyway, that's what's up. :)
