First Day!!

It's the first day back at school, and I couldn't be more excited!

I'm taking really fun and interesting classes (plus two intro classes, which should be very meh).
Intro to International Politics
Politics and the Judicial Process
Imagining Asia
Intro to Literature
Military Science 2

It's turning out to be a pretty exciting year!

SO! CadetPrep and Queen d'Clarinet thought a lounge room would rock.
Little did we expect Potsdam to accept too many students.
Hence the need to triple with LadyFunk. I'll admit, I'm the one who didn't have to bunk the bed, but it's with good reason: I'm going to be swimming at 5am 6 days a week.

This way, I won't bother them as I sneak out the door every morning. Let's face it, roomies that wake each other up, SO not kosher.
Believe it or not, I have less room (spatially speaking) than either of them.
Here's a close-up of my little section
My desk area...Queen d'Clarinet's desk is opposite mine :)
My bed, with an LLBean puppy named Mozart.
Gotta use under the bed space too, and i left enough room to access all of the stuff toward the back
This is my section in its' entirety, it's quite small, but livable.
Ciao :)

A few Online shopping items

I know, I know, Ebay and the like have been around for ages,
but here are some things to keep in mind when using sites like that:
1. Set a limit and stick to it
-don't raise your max bid just because someone outbid you, something else will come along.
2. Keep in mind that how fast you make your payment impacts your rating.
-A bad rating can lead to bad service.
3. Keep things private.
-Avoid giving out emails to other users, things can get tangled very easily.
4. Remember that all credit/debit cards have limits.
-DO NOT forget them!

Now that that is out of the way, I personally just discovered the wonder of Ebay!

I don't come from a super-well-off family, so I made do until I discovered said website (ahem, Ebay!).

I found the CUTEST Lilly Pulitzer skirt! First, it was only $21.00, including shipping!

Happy (and safe) Shopping! :)

CollegePrep Giveaway!

Hey guys, on one of the blogs I follow, they're having an amazing
GIVEAWAY!!!

Nico and LaLa make different fonts for things,
it's super preppy and completely adorable.


So cute, right?

Anyway, I'm also getting a pair of glasses today, but while I was looking,
and before I found the pair, I found:

Lilly Pulitzer glasses!

Lilly Pulitzer Lyla Eyeglasses
I LOVED them, sadly Momma-san didn't agree...they
don't frame my face well.

Any cute accessories that you just discovered?

FINALLY!

Yesterday was a Most Exciting Day in CadetPrepster's life! I finally purchased a cellphone!

Now, I realize for most this isn't big news, but for a cellphone addict like myself,
going without a phone from March until now was pretty tough.

It's a simple prepaid plan from Verizon, and it's all I need for now. However, if anyone can think of a better (ie more cost efficient) don't hesitate to holler out and let me know!



ArmyROTC update time!

As some of you know, I have been trying to get into basic training. This week I found out that after WEEKS sitting at the desk of the Army Surgeon General:

The Army said "no".

So the CoC at Potsdam ROTC is attempting to get me in that way. Mjr Toth (aka the most awesome ROTC recruiter EVER) says that if I improve my PT score (ie PASS) he can contract me, and when I graduate I can be an Army Officer.
(fingers crossed that THIS works out)


anyway, ciao for now :)
