i hate hate hate hate politics

i love serving UH through student government. I like having a voice and getting great things accomplished. but i HATE the politicking that occurs with election season. that part of it is just not in me. i want a certain position, but it's not as easily as attainable as i imagined at first. which is totally fine. a little competition never hurt anyone... it's just i want to be strategic, but at the same time not over necessarily strategic and have an affiliation look negatively later.

the college of technology seat is a somewhat easy win. i don't know of anyone else that is running. but i want to move up to director of PR. it's a presidential appointment. the candidate most likely to win president already has someone in mind. the other candidate would most likely appoint me, but they probably cannot win against person #1. however, in very recent elections it has been proven that the popular guy doesn't always win.

ahh, we'll see how it goes. whatever happens is meant to happen, anyway.

 on the other hand, maybe it's bothering me because i am not used to losing and very much like when things go my way. which they usually do. could it be bigger than an SGA issue? is it an internal spiritual thing?  C'mon G-man, what are you trying to teach me?

my blogs usually hold more than one main idea.

i hate strep throat and i am sick of it taking over my life and making me miss class.

i have a presentation thing at work tomorrow and do not know if i'll be able to talk during it. awesome.

my project 2 for video production is done. it's such a relief, but i have another one due soon and NO ideas!

our engagement party is moved to sometime in may. hopefully may 15th. we'll see.

i want to graduate on time and i am considering taking 6 classes for both fall and spring next year. but, the trade off is that i might die. ehh i don't think thats logistically or realistically going to happen.

i have no idea what has happened with my finances. when i lived in my apartment, i had rent,  electricity, water, gas, internet, etc... many many more expenses than i do now. however, now that i live at home i am broke as a joke! i am getting a 2nd job. it's an enjoyable one, but at tomorrow's meeting I will be installed as SGA's Director of Public Relations. The other girl was forced to resign. It will require a bit more time out of me than senator does, but it's paid. Hopefully all that money can go towards something productive and daniel and i can start having dates again!!

joomla is frustrating me to no end. the beginnings of my new site are coming (check it out www.thegrafixx.com) but i cannot get the links to work, the footer to show up, etc. it's annoying!!
