Well, after a weekend of Halloween festivities, I am back in the swing of things. First, a recap of the weekend. On Friday evening, I went to a friend’s house, where there was a small gathering of people and not too rowdy (which is fine by me). I even met up with my friend Laura (dressed as Lara Croft), who I hadn’t seen in a while. Erin went as a witch, and I went as a showgirl/cabaret girl, complete with sequin bowtie/vest bodysuit, fishnet tights, black stilettos, white gloves, a cane, and a doll-sized top hat. Yes, I even wore a BumpIt thing to make my hair more outrageous and Amy Winehouse-esque.
Saturday night was the TKE Halloween party, nostalgically called “Washing Machine” (I have climbed into their dryer before just for giggles). Erin went as Ms. Frizzle from The Magic School Bus, and it was pretty awesome, complete with glow-in-the-dark planets and stars and a messy bun I helped pin up. I went as a “generic Disney Princess,” with a light turquoise dress, a tiara, jewels, white bow high heels, white gloves and a glow-in-the-dark star wand. This party was really fun as well, including some of my friends, who went as the characters from Clue, Confucius, the Parker Brothers Monopoly monocle guy and “Derrick when he comes out of the closet” (such a funny costume, Dave).
So, back to real life. One thing I don’t amalgamate to well is the “fall back” part of Daylight Savings Time. It was nice that I drove to work this morning at 6:45 in less than complete darkness, but that 5 a.m. alarm felt a lot like 4 a.m. instead. A few extra snooze buttons later, I got ready for work and for my presentation I have in my PR Publicity class today. Big, important presentation that I have worked my butt off for; unfortunately, I still have two more of those to do this semester in PR alone. Dressing up does help your attitude and confidence, though, no matter what people may tell you. I’d actually feel more comfortable talking to a group in heels and a suit than sneakers and sweats. I suppose it’s like Halloween: if I could dress up every day, I totally would.
On a positive note, I found out late last night that my thesis research has been approved, so I will be beginning interviews this Thursday and posting the sign-up this afternoon. This is a great relief, as now I will be able to hopefully complete my research, thesis and presentation by December. I just hope that at least 15 Intro to Psych students (my research participants) sign up for it to get extra credit points.
I also registered for next semester classes this morning and got into all of them without any snags, which is another great relief. I’m hoping for a great next semester, and with all of these other things out of the way in a couple months, I’ll be ready for it.
