ups and downs.

I have been dealing with a complete rollercoaster of emotions lately.  I feel sad all the time for really no reason, and it has just really bogged down my last couple of weeks.
After I posted my last blog, I almost deleted it because it seemed so lame. But then I thought that in life, you can't delete your emotions. You can't delete how you felt at a certain time.
I think a lot of the contributing factors to my mood swings were the stress of finals week, plus working a 40+ hour week on top of that. 
Finals week just isn't really my cup of tea I guess.

Welp, I have a huge headache, and I need to get back to these helpless testers.

Hasta Luego,
Karasyn

I don't know what to do anymore.
I'm your second choice, your last priority.
You just don't care anymore.

All good things come to an end.
Story of my life.

here it is...

 dum dum duuuuuummmm...

FINALS WEEK.

otherwise known as the scourge of my existence.

Usually, it wouldn't be so bad, but whenever you work in a testing center finals week is a gazillion times worse than it is for a normal people. Try stressing out about all your finals plus working a 40 hour week, and trying to help people that seem to have all left their brains at home.

It's not exactly the best time ever.

I really need to stop complaining, I should be thankful to have a job (no matter how annoying) in this terrible economy, and even more thankful to get the extra hours.

blah blah blah ;)

hehe, I found this floating around my Tumblr dash and I thought it was an excellent illustration of my feelings on life today. Except for I think that being a real live owl would kinda suck. You have to eat bugs. Ew. Plus real live owls scare me. I love cutesy cartoon owls, and owl illustrations (like the one above), but real ones just freak me out. Don't ask why. I think it might be the whole 360 head turn thing. They just really give me the chill willies.

We got our final paper assignment in English yesterday, and I couldn't be more pleased with the topic. "Pick your favorite song, analyze it, and explain why you like it." LOVE. The only thing that is hard it picking my "favorite song." I honestly don't think that I have a particular song that is my favorite. However, I do have a favorite band. Which is Showbread. Obvi. I chose their song "I Think I'm Going to See You" off of their album The Fear of God. I LOVE this album. It is incredible.Amazing.Fantastic. You get the point. LISTEN TO IT! Below is a video of the song, so you can listen to it and fall head over heels in love with Showbread just as I have.

I have my oral spanish final today. I think I am going to pee my pants.

simplicity

I want to teach myself to be satisfied with the simple things in life.

Lately, I've been wanting lots of stuff.

Clothes, bags, make-up, nail polish, etc.

Stupid stuff that hardly has any lasting value at all.

I get so consumed with wanting more that I forget to be content with all the things that I am beyond blessed with.

I stand in my packed out closet in the mornings, complaining that I have "nothing to wear."

This is just pathetic. 

I have plenty of things to be thankful for, and I need to stop always wanting more.

today has consisted of...

working out

drinking water

studying for finals

listening to my entire Showbread collection

waiting patiently for summer

It's really hot today. I'm definitely NOT complaining.

hatin.

Today I am hatin.

I am hatin on a stupid person. I have never disliked so stinkin much in my ENTIRE live long life.

I guess breaking hearts just isn't enough for you.

People are SUCH hypocrites.

My apology was a lie.

I am NOT SORRY for anything that I said.

So this week is proving to be about 3481407235098234x better than last week. I've been more positive, and I'm trying not to get stressed out about things. Plus, I have a VERY exciting event on Thursday night! Do you wanna know? Do ya? Do ya? Okay... I guess I'll tell you...

I GET TO SEE...

SHOWBREAD!

if you live in Springfield you should totes come! It starts at 6 :)

eeeeeeep! I am so stinkin excited! If you don't listen to their music, then you should! My two favorite C.D.'s are No Sir, Nihilism is Not Practical, and Age of Reptiles. Every single song on those albums is fantastic.

For the most part, I've gotten out of my "oh I'm so hardcore, all I listen to is screamo, wear band tees" phase, but Showbread is still my one true love(musically speaking).

here are some of my favorite songs of theirs, to give you a taste of the wonderfullness that is Showbread.

 This is Oh! Emetophobia!

Its a love song that Josh wrote for his wife Abi. It's easily my favorite song of forever.

Mouth Like a Magazine

Dead by Dawn

These three are my all time favorite Showbread songs. I hope you like them! and if you don't, then I only have one thing to say to you...
