Yes I realize it's 5 a.m. But I am having insomnia issues so instead I will blog.
My journalism professor today said that blogging was a good idea, so I figured I'd pick this back up again. I also tend to forget how relaxing blogging is...especially when you have a lot going on, like I do this semester.
I never realized how much shit you can get done when you are awake at all hours of the night. I only wish my kitty could be in here with me. But I suppose he will be in here soon enough. Speaking of kitties, I suppose I should post a picture of Cornwallis. My roommate, Rachael, and I got two kittens this year and they are absolutely adorable! Mine is Cornwallis, and he's striped, while Rachael has Beezus, who is a black calico. Poor Beez has been having some health problems, though. She's been having this issue with her paws, but they look to be getting much better, which is definitely a good thing. September 28th is when I'm taking Cornwallis to get neutered and stuff, so hopefully he calms down a little after that. Right now he's definitely a spaz cat. Haha. He likes to attack my feet...or rather, any part of my body that just so happens to be moving. Although, he does know when to be adorable. Like the other day I came home from a really stressful day on campus and I was pretty much almost in tears. I decided to watch tv to hopefully make me feel better, when Corny came over and cuddled up next to me. It was such a nice gesture. :) There's something about cats that make you wonder if they really do know what's going on.
But anywho. This semester's turning out to be pretty darn busy! I've got three different projects this semester, one of which is my senior thesis. The other two are papers for journalism and Dynamic Meteorology. Blarg. It's just obnoxious that the Dynamics one is a group project. I hate group projects because I always seem to end up with a group who either doesn't do anything (so I get stuck doing all the work) or perfectionists who insist on doing all the work themselves. I guess it's just a Lose-Lose situation. Haha. But oh well. My senior thesis is actually pretty cool. I'm studying forecasting skill for non-meteorological backgrounds and how it improves over time. It's a neat topic and I'll definitely have to post the majority of it (leaving out any personal information of course haha) on here when it's finished! I actually have a presentation for it later today, but it's just presenting my idea and how exactly I'm going to go about researching it.
Cy's Eyes this year is going to be interesting. The shows have been going pretty well. We've only had a few hiccups, but things are mostly sorted out. The only annoying part is annoying people. I wish that if people showed up to the show, they'd help out instead of just sitting on their asses goofing around. Newswatch is pretty much the same way. But oh well. I'll deal with it. Anything to help further my career!
Speaking of career. My internship this summer was AMAZING! I interned at WQAD this summer under their chief meteorologist. It was super fun and I met a lot of awesome people and learned a ton! And apparently I made it into one of their new weather promos! Haha one of the anchors was talking to me yesterday and said you can see me in the background in the weather center during the new weather promo that they filmed over the summer. He's trying to find a copy to give me, so that'll be awesome.
But anywho. Not much else is going on on my end that I know of. I should probably pay more attention to the cat and get on top of my homework. Expect to hear a lot more from me this semester! I'll definitely need this to keep my sanity! Haha.
Talk to ya again soon!
