I'm a fun lovin' kind of girl. Also, to explain about the blog title, I loved the way this font looked. It kind of has an 18th century soldier writing a love letter... so I decided to call my blog Josephine because I fell in love with how it looked. I don't know if it's weird or not. It probably does seem weird, but I've decided that I don't really care.
something you should know about me:
I'm fun to be around and I don't usually care what people think. I'm one of the least judgmental people you will ever meet (of course I'm biased, but whatever). I love meeting new people and I'm just fascinated by culture, and music, and new ideas. I love to make people laugh. I'm one of the most sarcastic people you will ever meet. And I just love having fun.

lessons.
one. When things get sticky, I try and find my way out of them, and that I'm a coward.
two.I am a very patient person and that works against me sometimes.
three. It is possible to have people who care about you as much as you care about them.
four. I really don't need that much to be happy... I'm happy with "just enough."
five. I'm more practical than I give myself credit for.
six. I don't need anyone to make me happy, but one of my biggest fears is ending up alone.
seven. I think that having a blog is one of the most egotistical things you can do, but I choose to do it anyway.
eight. I don't think my life is that interesting, but I keep a blog so that one day, I might stumble upon some entries and laugh at my naivete.
nine. I love my friends and family to death and I'd do just about anything for them.
ten. You reap what you sow... that's why it's better to give than to receive.

So, this past week has been pretty much awful. Everything is going horribly. I'm tired. I'm sick. I'm not sure what I have exactly. I'm pretty sure it's the flu. I feel miserable. Monday's been awful of last week. I think that was one of the worst days ever. It was just one thing after the other. Tuesday wasn't so bad. I was elected to Social Chair of KRHC. That was pretty awesome. Wednesday was forgettable. It was pretty boring. Thursday was meh. I feel like I didn't really do anything. And, then Thursday I started getting sick. Friday was okay. I watched Hamlet with Katlin and we stayed in. Saturday was the game and it felt like we didn't do anything all day. Well, no I take that back. I felt like the entire day was gone. The game was awesome. Then I spent the night at Ally's. Came back for Ekta's Presents on Sunday and that's about it. Today i stayed in. I emailed all of my professors, telling them that I wouldn't be able to make it to class today. It sucked. I also had to call in to the elementary school and let them know that I wouldn't be able to go volunteer this week. I felt like crap. This week has been horrible.
Katlin's been chasing me with Lysol, which is fine because I told everyone to. We always watch Greek on Monday nights. I told them I would probably stay in my room and watch it here. She said thanks. I don't know, that felt odd or not odd, but it just felt like... ouch. I'm not going to say I took offense to it, but I feel like I'm just quarantining myself. I've shut myself in and there's a whole world out there and I'm not taking part in it. It's just sad. I feel like crap. I want it to stop. I just want everything to be normal again. Ugh.
Okay, so I'm sitting in my room. I have to say, I've had a pretty good beginning of the semester thus far. I went to my first longhorn football game yesterday. It was absolutely phenomenal. I had no idea that so many people went. I thought okay, maybe 50,000. Try 102,000. It was absolutely insane. I can't even describe to you how awesome it was. My feet did hurt quite a lot.
It's weird. I've developed a maternal instinct. I feel the need to take care of people. I didn't really notice it until this year. I don't mean this in an egotistical kind of way whatsoever, but I find it weird that I've always been looked up to or rather, I've always been seen as someone people can talk to. I don't know why. That's just the way things have always been.
I feel weird. I dunno. This is an odd entry. It's kind of a half-assed recap of last night and a pinch of my current thoughts with a little rant about how I'm oddly depressed for no reason. Well, I wouldn't go as far as call it a depression so much as it is a slump. Anyway, that's all for now.
So, I haven't done much of anything in the past couple of days. I've had a lot of time to think. I've been pondering a lot lately. Right now, Ekta is working on her drawring of the Eiffel tower and I'm blogging about my inactivity. I met my suitemate officially. I'm excited. Ekta and I are watching Eragon. I'm probably going to update short blips about the day.
So last night things got a lot better. I came into the room and said hey to Ekta, my roommate. She said hey back. I knew something was up so I turned and said bad day? She goes yup. She goes... bad day? I go yup. I go... do you wanna cry. She goes yup. then... do you wanna cry... I go... yup. So of course we vented and it was great because we got a lot off our chests. We stayed up til 4 AM talking. It was awesome.
I woke up and was on my way to the second and a half floor when my suitemate comes up the elevator. I know she was my suitemate because i met her last year, but I'm not sure she remembered me. Anyway, I was on my way down. I tried to open the elevator as it was closing so I put my arm in. It shut on me. It didn't open. She saved my arm. It was awesome.
