Things I am excited for:
- Emily Jones
- Pretzels
- the "El"
- The guy in the Lake station who plays Sam Cooke all day long
- Tacos?
- Cocktails with E. Youngin
- FUN
- Relaxation
- Being empowered? Or desperate? Or either way - having it not really matter. (This one's for you, Holly Doyle)
....and then, RIPON on Saturday night! Move in Sunday morning.

Hello my name is Roberta
...and I am an emoticon addict. I freely use :) all the time, and even sometimes use ;). I am responsible for my own usage of emoticons, and I admit that I was powerless against this, until today. Today, I pledge not to use them unless there is an exceptionally appropriate circumstance, like when I think I am sounding bitchy in a text message.

Oh yeah, it's the New Year?
Okay, I never have a resolution for the new year - even though I could probably stand to make a few of the traditional ones (I won't ever accomplish any of those), i.e. spend less money at the bar on beers. BUT! I decided that I was going to do my own take on what I should focus on for 2012 and they are:
- graduate from college (keep your fingers crossed, guys!)
- eat more kale - it's delicious!
- wear makeup everyday - not because I need to look more "beautiful," but because I want to stop being such a hot mess every minute of every day.
- stop apologizing for myself when I've done nothing wrong
...and embrace every moment.
Okay, now that's over. We can focus on things I like more, like articles from the New York Times. Here are two opinion pieces written by former prisoners at Gitmo. Pretty cool. here and here
On Thursday, I fly out for a weekend in Chicago before I head back to Ripon for the semester. My plans involve eating as many tacos as possible, and doing only fun things. I move back to the good ol' sorority floor come Sunday, and I am excited for our first night back - where Ashley and Holly are hopefully going to sit in my room while we drink and I organize. Everyone who reads this probably knows how important this initial organization is for me, because if I don't do it right away...this is what happens:
above: freshman year dorm room, awful outfit and awful room. gross.
Anyways, wish me luck on the next few weeks, I am going to try to only have so much fun!
xoxo
