FIERCE!

Apparently God wanted me to spend a LOT of time on the couch this week...because there has been a weeklong "America's Next Top Model" marathon on Vh1. As some of you may know (and all of you should know), ANTM is insanely addicting. So here I sit, watching the 6th season, and I cannot get over one thing: JADE!

Anyone who has seen the 6th season knows who I am talking about. Jade is the cockiest of cocky people on TV right now at this hour. Dear Lord. She walked in the first day and full-out stated "I am the total package." Are you kidding me? You speak in buzz-words! When you open your mouth, you sound like an asshole on drugs! I can't deal. She'd better not win. And yes, I know I am going straight to hell, don't worry.

I swear I have actually been doing more with my life than critiquing tall skinny people. I finally secured a job for next semester! I will be working at the Department of Labor with the Center for Faith-Based and Community Initiatives. I'm really excited about it; I'm not gonna lie, it's nice to know that I will have some source of income next semester. I'll probably be working 5 days a week, but that's ok, considering I have not done any work of any real kind since August. Ah, study abroad: a curse and a blessing.

Being home has been nice, but I am definitely ready to get back to DC. I miss the Metro, the easy navigation...ok mostly I just really hate driving, so I'm excited to not have to drive/be driven anywhere. Isn't driving here a bitch? Old Orchard has become my own personal hell...all those Suburbans! So, as I sit here tonight, I look forward to writing a week from now from my apartment on 13th street, with a killer kitchen and an in-unit washer and dryer. THE GOOD LIFE.
