Midterms & Rivalries

Yes, hi... hello.

I am alive, please don't worry. 

Midterms -1 

Kelsey - 0

Apologies about my absence. But, classes trump blog... 

However.

If it's fall... and its midterms... that means one thing, folks:

RED RIVER RIVALRY

Hell yeah, baby.

I'v been lucky enough to be able to attend the Texas State Fair & OU/TX game every year. Honestly, it's my favorite thing... I'm pretty excited to go. And this year, I'm staying with friends instead of family, so that's gonna be fun and different.

Before we part ways, I want to showcase some STUNNING pictures my photographer mom took of my best friend and me last week!

Is it bad to call pictures with you in them stunning?

Whatever, they're amazing. Shout out to my mom for totally kicking butt and making my little idea a reality. I know that in 20 years, I'm gonna really cherish these pictures. Here are my favorites:

As always, thanks for reading. I hope you survived your week, if it was bad. If not, well then congrats on not getting any stress zits. I envy you.

Weekend Update

I guess since this is the second Sunday in in a row that I'm posting about my week, I should give it a formal name. I now present to you:

*Drum roll pleeeeasssseeee*

The Weekend Update

If you said "oooooooo... aaahhh" in your head, I give you 100 cool points.

Well, I can tell you that the stress of last week is not going anywhere, any time soon. I think it's gonna be hanging around for a bit... and by bit I mean all semester.

The thing is, when you look at it on paper the computer, it doesn't seem like my life should be too stressful!

1. 15 hours class
2. 15 hours at work/week
3. Internship (stay at home)

But my Lord, when everything comes together it's like...

STRESS

No one told me senior year was this stressful. Not a single soul. 

I blame you.

JK.

But really.

In all seriousness, this week was a good week. I started my new internship as social media manager for a local wedding planner, I rocked out two papers & quiz and even fit in time to hang out with some friends!

My god-dog, Mazy Mae

Now, I am gonna just breeeeeeeze over the emotional breakdown I had Monday, because no ones likes reading about that stuff.

But, I will mention the awesome care package my mom sent me :)

#mymomisbetterthanyours

I'm gonna sign off now and write my literature review for PR research. And my Crisis Vulnerability Assessment for Crisis Communication. 

Stop. Don't. I know you're jealous.

Until next time,

I couldn't resist.

My Week

Ya'll, this week was one for the books. I'm not sure I have ever been so stressed, ever. Totally not being melodramatic, I swear.

Why all the stress, Kels?? It's not even midterms yet!

Well, since you asked, I shall explain the contributing factors

• WORK | This past week or so has been a total floor set to make way for the new fall collections. That means I worked 20+ hours, instead of my usual 12-15. I'm not complaining, truly, because I love my job! I just really, strongly dislike floor set.

Floor set: The process of rearranging all the goods in a store to give a fresh appearance, often according to a planogram.

• CLASS | For some reason, all my teachers decided that this week should be the week that they assign papers and deadlines and tests and journals and research and readings and meetings and BREATHE. PR is no joke, amigos. Even buzzfeed agrees! 

See #10.

That's a post for another day.

• LIFE | Ok, ok... so I did this to myself. For some reason, I decided it would be best to schedule all my appointments and meetings for this week after all my classes. My advice? Don't. It will make you crazy.

I am happy to report I had only one major anxiety attack this week. Sunday night, I just laid in bed, thinking about everything I had to do & when I could sneak in a meal, and before you know it, I'm having a full on anxiety attack. 

Again, a blog post for another day.

I am thrilled to report it's FRIDAY and I survived this hellish week! After I post this, I'm gonna go workout and then finish up some last minute homework before heading to work. Then tomorrow, it's football time, baby!

Talk to you soon.

xo.
