So right now the entire blogsphere is alight with people weighing in their opinions of the unveiling of Apple’s “iPad” (and yes I did make my share of jokes regarding the name…who hasn’t?) and I suppose I will say a little bit regarding this new gadget…
It has flaws, its closed sourced, its got room to grow but also – its well designed, thought out and an amazing leap in technology. Will I be investing in one? Does the sun not rise in the east? But then again, so will lots of other Apple freaks. Will it kill my need for my mac? HELL NO. My baby can do some many more things than the iPad but still its gonna be nice to have when I need it, and no, it will not “kill” netbooks but its definitely something to live up to.
What? You expected more? Of course, I have more opinions, but who wants to read the same crap from 67 different sites?
Not here today. Well until I get bored and decided to babble more about it.

A blog that I am extremely engaged with, one that has stirred my heart in many ways is “The Spohrs Are Multiplying.” I started reading this about a year ago, these people are so wonderful and have been through so much pain, especially when they lost their daughter, Madeline. Look to the right of this blog to see her story, or look up to the page I devoted to her but I don’t wanna repeat it on here, because its sad. A couple of weeks after Madeline died, Heather and Mike discovered that they were pregnant with again, this time around has been a wonderful pregnancy and they have been terrified that something would go wrong, but luckily it has been smooth for them, these last couple of weeks we (the interwebs) have been waiting anxiously for Binky to arrive (she isn’t due till Valentine’s Day) but it seems that Binky has taken things into her own hands and is coming right now! I am so beyond excited because this family deserves a break, they deserve their happy moment, here’s to little Binky Spohr!!!
Welcome to the world, little amazing girl.

I have a problem. A serious little issue that plagues me…I am a freak when it comes to having my iTunes in order, by that I mean I cannot function unless I have every artist named, every title found and every album art in it’s proper place within my library. I’m not the only person out there that has this issue, don’t look down on me for it…maybe we should start a group “iTunes Perfectionist Anonymous,” we could spend our meetings discussing what software widgets needed to find all song titles and how our addictions have ruined our lives or some crap like that.
So during my quest I came upon a wonderful application called “Tunatic” which has enabled me somewhat in my quest for song perfection.
If you’re like me then you should give it a look-see, its totally bomb.
Oh and have you figured out the movie where my blog title came from?
Here’s a hint: Delta House.

Well this has been a great start to the new year, not to say that it hasn’t been good so far, I just mean I have been horrible about remembering to update my blog…the trip was amazing and I had a great time…but still there are so many changes occurring right this instant that my head is filled with confusing, happiness, anger, fear and calm all at the same time.
Needless to say, my head is a party right now.
Let’s see what this year brings, shall we?

I’m back here in Albuquerque finally, getting ready to board the train for NYC in the morning, I am excited to be back and to be heading on this trip and to spend time with my sisters, also I’m excited to get this next semester going and keep chugging towards being done with school.
I have more to write and as the trip goes I’ll update but right now I am tired as hell so I’m gonna crash out now.
Night!

Here I go…
My finals are over, and I have been up for 48 hours straight, oh the life and woes of a college kid. If only I could drink Red Bull without passing out…I’m glad this semester is over but it’s extremely bittersweet…its heartbreaking actually.
I need to go home, I have some loose ends I need to tie up and fix and just generally get my shit straight but its hard to leave my sisters, I have never cried so much from people just hugging me and telling me they are gonna miss me. I knew they would I just didn’t think it was gonna hit me. Until I drove away from CHIO and burst into tears, I truly feel for the man in the car next to me, he must have wondered what the hell was going on. Sigh…its all gonna be okay though, I will board my plane soon and be back in Texas for some degree of permanence…I’m ready even if I’m broken.
In the ever eloquent words of my little sister Stephanie, “Peace 505, what it do 432.”

Sometimes life throws every curveball it possesses and all that I want to do is cry. To curl up into a small ball on my bed and hold onto my stuffed penguin and cry, scream, cuss and beg for everything to be better, for it all to be worth while, occasionally its something stupid that sends me into a meltodown and then I feel like a child for letting it get to me but sometimes its something big.
Something life changing, something I don’t know how to face.
And then I end up talking to myself for a little while, “It’s okay Jules, smile through it, everything will get better, just smile through it.” It’s the only way I make it.
Through the good times and the bad, I find myself smiling, even if its while I’m crying.
